Chapter 256: Let them be happy for a few days


One chili seed costs one penny.

This money comes so quickly and easily.

Even those who come from aristocratic families who have never been short of money since childhood are a little shocked when they see it.

Yes, they themselves are rich, but their money has been accumulated by their ancestors over many generations.

Na Luo Coffin Board has only been in Chang'an for a few days.

He was still farming in the countryside a few years ago.

Now, in less than a year since he came to Chang'an City, he has bought two houses.

If he is allowed to continue at this speed, If it continues to develop, given time, wouldn’t it be possible to step on the heads of people like them?

Some people have no reason to argue.

They just want to be better than you and be one step ahead of you.

Once you catch up with them and even have a tendency to overtake you, then you will be their enemy.

Although not all people in this world are like this, as long as there are one or two out of a hundred, it is enough to drink a pot.

Luo Yong's current situation is very bad.

In early September, after Du Xi returned to Chang'an City after traveling, he heard his friends talking about the big and small things that had happened in Chang'an City in the past half year.

Soon he went to find Luo Yong and persuaded him to keep a low profile and not to go too far.

Take the plunge.

"Now that the situation is like this, can I still take back those pepper seeds and not sell them?"

Luo Yong said with a smile: "At this rate, it won't take long for them to be sold out.

By then, the situation should be Somewhat relaxed.”

"You are not a person who cares about money, so why do you want to push yourself to the forefront?"

Du Xi said helplessly.

"How did you know that I am not a person who cares about money?"

How could Luo Yong still tell him that he would work hard to save money and change the world: "There is nothing else in this world that is as interesting as making money."

"Of course it's money."

Du Xi raised the wine cup and said with a smile.

"That's not bad."

Luo Yong also laughed.

The two of them drank and ate, and the atmosphere was lively.

The reason why Du Xi disappeared for so long this time was that he went to Laizhou, Hebei Province to look for his cousin Du Gou.

On this day, Du Xi brought Luo Yong some local specialties from Laizhou, the most conspicuous of which were a few cans of canned squid.

I heard that Du Gou and his colleagues successfully extracted a batch of Eucommia gum last autumn and winter.

After a winter of thinking, they finally made canning jars.

After the beginning of this spring, they started researching various canned fish.

According to the opinions of some locals, since it is for takeout, it is natural to use the best and most precious sea fish to make cans.

Du Gou didn't think so.

The number of those precious sea fish was limited and fishing was difficult.

Even if they barely opened the market, they wouldn't be able to supply the goods at all.

They might as well use their brains on those needle fish.

In recent years, the number of needlefish has been overflowing on the seaside of Laizhou.

They not only attack other fish and occupy large areas of water, but also pose certain safety risks to fishermen who go out to sea.

When Du Gou was suppressing bandits in the coastal waters of this area, his left hamstring was broken by a needlefish.

The meat of acupuncture fish is quite delicious, and it can replenish fatigue, nourish yin and dispel deficiency fire.

It is said that it is also a very suitable fish for consumption.

But it also has a problem, that is, there are many and sharp fish bones, and there are barbs on the spines.

Once it is stuck in the mouth, it is difficult to get it out.

The local people eat it with caution in order to satisfy their hunger.

If it is sold to other places, it will be very difficult.

It's hard to find a market.

At about that time, Du Xi went to Laizhou.

Du Xi is ambitious.

Almost everything he does now is to prepare for his future success.

It's just that in this era, if a person wants to gain a foothold in the turbulent court, the help and support of his family is very important.

However, the Du family is not united and will fight to the death at every turn.

For generations, After people came down, they accumulated a lot of hatred.

Du Xi went to Laizhou this time, naturally to win over Du Gou.

Originally, his cousin had no intention of ruling the country and settled far away from Chang'an City in Laizhou.

The Du family almost forgot about him.

Until the beginning of this year, I heard someone said that he had planted many Duzhong trees in Laizhou and extracted Ducomm gum.

Someone from the Du family wrote to him, but he didn't even reply.

Du Xizhang remembered that he had visited Laizhou when he was traveling around in the past, so he went to Laizhou himself.

As a result, he stayed there for more than half a year.

They visited many restaurants and guesthouses in Laizhou that were good at cooking acupuncture, and combined with their richer food experience than the local people, they finally made canned acupuncture, which was now placed in front of Luo Yong.

There are a lot of fish bones in acupuncture.

Even if they try their best to remove the fish bones during processing, there will still be some omissions.

But the canned fish now placed in front of Luo Yong almost tasted without any bones.

Du Xi said that these fish were carefully processed and fried in a stone pot, and added with green onion and ginger wine, a large amount of Vinegar, a little sauce, simmer for about an hour.

The vinegar has the effect of softening the fish bones, and after simmering for a long time, when you eat it, even if there are a few fish bones, they are basically soft. .

"This is a good idea."

Luo Yong picked up another piece of fish with his chopsticks and ate it.

Speaking of which, there is no shortage of fish in this era.

There are many fish in rivers and lakes.

What is lacking is fishing and preservation technology.

In addition, sea fish always taste a little different from freshwater fish.

The local needlefish resources in Laizhou are so abundant. , I think this business can still be done.

"If you are interested, I will ask someone to clear a place in the North and South Grocery Store.

This canned squid can be put on the shelves for sale at any time."

Luo Yong said to Du Xi.

"Thank you, Sanlang.

My cousin's canned fish should be able to sell well."

Du Xi said happily.

In Chang'an City, no one knows that the North and South grocery business is doing well.

There are countless customers coming in and out every day.

If this canned squid can be put on the shelves of North and South groceries, then they will not care about sales.

I know how much effort it saves.

"It doesn't mean everything will be fine just by putting it up."

Luo Yong said with a smile: "The store over there will check the sales of various items every quarter.

If the sales are really sluggish, they will probably be removed from the shelves to make room.

Come and give me something else.”

Especially in the food area on the first floor, the competition is quite fierce.

After all, the grocery stores in the north and south are only that big in total, and there are many people who want to sell goods on their shelves, from merchants from all over to Hu merchants from all over the world, and even some aristocratic family members.

The products offered by these people are also of various kinds.

For everyone in the family, it is basically the products of their own family, ranging from agricultural products from the manor to items produced in various workshops.

The types of goods provided by those Hu merchants are even richer, many of which Luo Yong has never even heard of before.

However, the second floor shopping mall of North and South Grocery mainly sells daily necessities, and the products that are too expensive, Luo Yong Not very willing to accept it after using it.

Previously, there was a Hu businessman who wanted to sell ivory chopsticks on the North and South grocery shelves.

When Luo Yong's disciples told Luo Yong about this, he refused without even thinking about it.

After Hu Shang learned the results, he was very unconvinced.

He spoke fluent Chinese and asked Luo Yong to argue.

The chopsticks were also used for eating and daily necessities.

He asked Luo Yong why he refused to let him put them on the shelves.

Luo Yong told him that it was too cruel to hunt elephants for these two pairs of chopsticks, and their shop refused such products.

"Your sheepskin boots are also made of sheepskin, and my ivory chopsticks are made of ivory.

What's wrong with that?"

Hu Shang argued with him.

"After we kill the goat, the mutton is used for food, the suet is used for soap, and the cashmere is used for sweaters.

We don't even waste the water and make the best use of it.

This is respect for life.

How do you treat it?

Where are the elephants?"

Luo Yong asked him.

The white man Hu Shang's face turned red, and he didn't know whether he was ashamed or angry, and left in a hurry.

Luo Yong never saw him again after that.

"But it's still divided according to thirty-seven," Du Xi confirmed to Luo Yong.

"That's right, it's still divided according to 30% to 70%.

I'll get 30% and you will get 70%."

Luo Yong said.

"In the future, I will have to rely on Sanlang for his care."

Du Xi bowed his hand to Luo Yong seriously.

"Why should Fifteenth Master be so unreasonable?"

Luo Yong could probably guess that Du Gou was making cans in Laizhou.

Although the cans shipped to Chang'an were sold on the shelves of groceries in the north and south, Du Xi, the middleman, must also have To make money, people like them, who often go out and try their best to show off and look cool, can't get around with very little money.

In any case, Luo Yong is still very happy about Du Xi's return.

This girl is really a romantic figure.

She has been dormant for so long and finally came back.

She will definitely not be too low-key.

Luo Yong now hopes that Chang'an City can be as lively as possible, with more romantic figures and rare and exotic objects, to help him share his firepower and stop those people from just staring at him all day long.

Sure enough, Du Xi did not disappoint Luo Yong.

Just a few days after this guy came back, he made a big news in Chang'an City.

It is said that when he came back from Laizhou this time, in addition to various local specialties, he also got some Eucommia gum from his cousin.

What do you think he used for this Eucommia gum?

This girl gathered a dozen young people from the family, took some Eucommia gum, and went to the Wang family to exchange for canned lychees.

The Wang family has been developing the canning business in the south in the past two years.

For them, the purchase of Eucommia gum is absolutely urgent.

This time the Wang family saw Du Xi and others bringing Eucommia gum to exchange for cans.

Whether it was for the sake of Eucommia gum or the face of these young people who came from a wealthy family, they readily exchanged it.

I gave them two large jars of canned lychees.

Take these two big jars of canned food back, what do you think they will eat?

There were about ten people and 60 kilograms of cans.

In less than half a day, they all ate it up.

On average, each person ate five or six kilograms.

What kind of madness is this?

Do you know how much the Wang family’s canned lychees sell for in Chang’an City now?

There were also impeachments in the court, saying that the family did not properly discipline their young people.

However, this kind of impeachment is not necessarily a bad thing for those young people, especially Du Xi, who plays a leading role, and has been registered in front of these big guys early.

It will be more helpful when he becomes an official in the future.

In fact, these big guys are often relatively tolerant of these harmless and ridiculous things.

We all come from aristocratic families, but who doesn't come here like this?

If you are not a romantic person, you are a waste of youth.

Those sour little officials, if they like ginseng, give it to them.

Du Xi and the others also took a very open view of things like getting involved.

There was no so-called romantic person who didn't make some small mistakes or get into some small troubles.

If you study hard at home, you will be able to discover a romantic figure.

In other dynasties, there may be opportunities, but in the early Tang Dynasty, there was no need to think about it.

Ever since Du Xi and the others made the lychee feast, Luo Yong had become a little more relaxed.

I sold out the pepper seeds smoothly, and the cold storage has started construction.

I will send another batch of money and silk to support the road construction team on the Guannai Road.

I will calculate whether the money I owed for the saplings two years ago has been paid off.

Everything was fine, but after he finished everything he needed to do, there wasn't much money left from selling the pepper seeds.

Hengzhi got a drawing from Luo Yong in recent days and is frantically investing in the research and manufacture of hand cranes.

The number of blacksmiths in Xing Er's yard increased from one to three, and they were busy every day.

In addition to the craftsmen's wages, they also consumed a lot of fine iron and coal, which Luo Yong spent money to buy.

The most difficult part of making a crane is the pulleys and gears.

As for gears, Chang'an craftsmen will have some experience, because the production of Yanerfei requires the use of gears.

There are also some rich people who will spend their own money to replace the wooden structure on Yanerfei with a fine iron structure.

Please pay.

These are the craftsmen in the market.

The pulley would be difficult.

Hengzhi discussed with Luo Yong.

If they still couldn't successfully make the pulley in a few days, they would ask Luo Yong to write to the Yin family to borrow someone.

They had a blacksmith who could make bearings.

It is not difficult to ask them to make a few pulleys.

As for the steel frame of the crane, it is not difficult to make, but it is not an easy task to ensure its load-bearing capacity.

These blacksmiths work hard every day, and there is no telling how much scrap iron they use.

Fortunately, these irons are picked up and saved, and they can be used to build other things in the future.

After a while, after the crane is built, they will start building the trailer.

After winter, if you need to take ice from the river, the transportation of the ice will also consume a lot of manpower and material resources.

When going out and entering the warehouse, you will inevitably use some trailers.

There are many things he wants to do, money is needed for everything, and the income channels are relatively limited.

Luo Yong feels that he never has a lot of money.

The people of Chang'an all knew that Luo Yong had made money this time, but it was unknown which bottomless pit he had filled with the money.

Look at him going to and from get off work every day, still wearing an ordinary robe, and the donkey cart is the same donkey cart as before.

Even the children in the family don't see any new clothes.

"Where did your brother earn all his money?

Why don't you buy clothes with you?"

someone from the neighbors asked Siniang and the others.

"It's spent."

Siniang said calmly.

"So much, it's all spent" That's too much to spend "Well, money has nothing to do with money."

Qiniang repeated to everyone what her brother said last night.

"Tsk, even if your family's money is so easy to spend, other people's families can still be like yours."

"It's better to hold on to something, don't waste it all."

"Your brother is not married yet.

How can a woman from a good family marry him without any savings?"

"Exactly, even if the road to pass the inner road is built slower and narrower, it is also done accordingly."

These neighbors really want to teach the brothers and sisters of this family who don’t know how to save money.

In the Han people's concept of life, accumulation is very important.

Much of their family's wealth is passed down from their ancestors and accumulated from generation to generation.

If there is no accumulation, where will the family business come from?

No matter how big the business is, After all, it comes with risks.

Why doesn't Luo Yong know that there are risks in doing business?

It's just that life is free and there are no risks anywhere.

Like before, he could travel through time while walking.

After he finished traveling, he could look back and see that the technology in the 21st century was so advanced, the cities were so prosperous, and the world was so colorful, and his understanding of that world And the experience is so limited.

"The weather has been sunny in the past two days and the autumn air is crisp.

It is a good time to visit relatives and friends.

I will not give you any homework.

Studying hard is a good thing, but you should also balance work and rest."

The Double Ninth Festival is about to come on the 9th day of September.

The two days of the 9th day and 10th day are off.

On the afternoon of the 8th day of the lunar month, Luo Yong finished an afternoon of mathematics class for the students of the two classes of Taixue, Bingding and Ding. said the students in the class.

"What's wrong with Luo's coffin board?"

"Could it be that he had a kind heart?"

"Could it be that something big happened?"

"I always feel like there's something wrong with it."

The Taixue students who were used to being oppressed by heavy schoolwork were suddenly relieved of their burdens.

They were told to go and have fun.

Everyone was obviously still a little uncomfortable with this.

"I heard that in the past two days, someone has come to the saint to complain about the condition of the coffin board."

"Tsk, those shameless ones."

"Should the coffin boards have been removed?"

"Probably not."

"If he leaves, who can teach this lesson?"

"Based on the teaching level of Coffin Board, without this Taixue, the private schools outside are still rushing to get it."

"I, Aye, said that even if I have no hope of an official career in the future, I can still write and do calculations.

He finally doesn't have to worry about me starving to death on the streets."

"Hey, it's good that you don't have to do homework."

"The coffin board must be able to change its ways and start a new life."

"If that's the case, we won't call him Coffin Board anymore." "" At this moment, the Luo family yard.

"Swish" The young women who usually attend classes at Luo's house are busy in the yard at this time, cutting paper, brushing ink, printing, sorting, stitching, and pasting covers.

They were all busy putting up covers without even looking up.

In Luo Yong's room, the homework collected from the students last time was neatly piled on the desk, and there was no time to correct it.

The booklet "Chili Eating Manual" sells very well.

Although it only costs three cents per book, after deducting the materials and labor costs, Luo Yong can still earn at least one cent per book.

This money is easy to come by, and if you don't earn it, you won't make it in vain.

The main force in the printing work was still Xing Er's side.

Luo Yong initially just took it to them for a try.

After confirming that they could do it, he let them start printing in large quantities.

In addition, Luo Yong also asked Siniang to call them over to work for the women who attended classes in the Luo family's courtyard every day.

It was good to earn some private money, and the work of engraving and printing was not too tiring.

"Brother, those homeworks in your room haven't been graded yet, are you okay?"

"It's okay.

Sometimes you should make those students happy for a few days."
