When Li Xun arrived in the water and clouds, the old man was already waiting for him. Before Li Xun could speak, the old man asked, "What good things did you bring back this time?"
"White dice, a cloth woven with white dice, filled with it. The bedding made is warmer than wood wool, softer than the fur we filled in, and more comfortable than linen cloth. It is what we used to grow as flowers. "
Li Xun was a little excited when he spoke, mainly because it was a bit cold when he came over, so he spread the mattress in the car and covered his body with the quilt. It felt comfortable.
The old man froze slightly, "Bai Diezi? Can this be woven into cloth? Can it be stuffed into it like wood wool? But Bai Diezi has seeds in it, so it’s not easy to make it. You can choose to reclaim the land for planting. Yes, there are seeds in every small bone flower. Just picking this seed requires a lot of manpower. It's not cost-effective. If you really plant it, it will cost you people and money."
Li Xun also suddenly thought of this. There are seeds in it. How did Xiaobao and Cuckoo get it when they tried the thing that was stepped on? Once you step on it, the seeds inside come out. It turns out that the key lies in that thing.
Thinking of this, Li Xun immediately said: "Zhang's family made a thing that can be turned, and put the picked white stacks in. Once turned, there will be no seeds. If you plant it or not, it will occupy the field. That’s a shame."
"Planting, even if ordinary people don't use it for a while, but the price of silk will come down after the rich and the rich have a family. Well, this is a matter of discounts. Choose a place to try planting for a year to encourage land reclamation. "
The old man thinks a little bit more. Bai Diezi has just come out. Everyone will feel fresh when they first come into contact with it. The price will not be low. Waiting for ordinary people to use it, at least for a few years, unless it is to find a suitable place for a large amount of land. Plant white stacks.
Li Xun realized that no matter how many, he wanted to go home quickly and give the things to his family. When he came out, he ordered two more sets in addition to the ten sets of the old man. Of the five sets, he left one set for himself, and the rest The points are gone, and some people are going to help collect them now, collecting ten catties, how can they make a set.
Bai Diezi, who was originally worthless, turned out to be a baby at this time, baby
"Yeah, Xiaobao also asked me to help him harvest more seeds of Bai Diezi. He wanted to..."
"His family thought of finding a suitable place to grow a lot in the south. This is the Zhang family who is prepared for a rainy day. It has not yet passed. It has already figured out how to improve the lives of the local people. This thing is planted for the people, and they will pay a high price. No one will pay if the quilt comes out and sold again.
If this kind of ability can be learned from time to time by my side... It's a pity, I can't follow it, don't you want to follow me, Master Xiaohou? No matter where the Zhang family goes, there will be miracles, so just look at it. "
The old man understood Zhang's plan once Li Xun mentioned it.
Li Xun was a little helpless. "I want to follow it too. It seems impossible. Old Shangshu. The Zhang family is still spending money recently for Linxian around Huayuan County. I don’t know what Zhang Zhong thinks. Previously it was 40,000. , These days it should have spent another 20,000 guan, I said to open a few more supermarkets together, they have no money, to do this kind of things, money is like running water."
"Spend money to the surrounding counties? They never told me about this. My nephew mentioned it once and said that the roads in the surrounding counties should be repaired. This will facilitate the transportation of things to Huayuan. The five surrounding counties are next to Huayuan. Yuan county, Meiyuan, Sanyuan, Chunhua, Yunyang, Fuping, there is a Sanshui county here, this road is open, tell me what they have done?"
The old man thought for a while, but after all he didn't think of it, but according to normal terms, it is abnormal if it is too normal. The Zhang family's behavior is not leaking, and it is impossible to be a waste of 60,000.
Li Xun told the old man one by one what he had learned. He also bought handicrafts and opened game shops around to collect poultry and livestock raised by the common people and sell them back very cheaply. Boy, help build roads, rent land and hire people, etc.
"So, the other counties are pretty good now? Zhang Zhong is dedicated to the people. Not only does he help the people of Huayuan County, but he can't bear to see the people around him have a bad life." The old man followed the normal rules. Thought for a while and said.
"Yes, it's repaying the country. Zhang Zhong's first discount this time, Huayuan County will pay five times the usual tax this year. Even the surrounding counties have to pay the same discount, and the result is doubled. , I also lost the 60,000 Guans spent by the Zhang family, otherwise the surrounding county magistrates would have to die in a hurry."
Li Xun now understands a little bit about this aspect. Zhang’s money has stimulated the surrounding economy. It is a direct investment or a purely consumer investment. Although it is not as good as basic investment and construction, this method is effective. Otherwise, how could the surrounding counties collect so many things in a short time.
The old man laughed at this moment. "The people in the yamen of the counties around you should hate and reluctant to Zhang Zhong? But what is the use of Zhang Zhong's hand? Don't you want to leave and continue to stay in Huayuan County? , I can't bear to leave the county I built
Well, it’s possible. At that time, even if others want him to go, the people in Huayuan County and the people in the surrounding counties will join together to keep him. They have to think about it. But for this kind of thing, they should be with me. After discussing it, I'll write to you later and ask, please go back with the quilt. "
Li Xun also meant the same. It would be useless to stay any longer. He took his own things, and the old man's things stayed behind and went by boat.
He left, and the old man thought for a while, "No, no, what does the Zhang family want to do with so many Baidizi seeds if they want to stay? There is no need for Li Xun to build a ship. can not say."
In the yamen of Huayuan County, Zhang Zhong took out more than 1,000 yuan. This was the Zhang family’s money. In exchange for a large amount of nitrated fur from two counties, they were sent to the warehouse. He also I can’t sit still. I don’t want to invest the 60,000 guan of money in other places, and it’s all spent in the surrounding counties. What is my son's plan
Zhang Zhong thought, he was going to ask his son to ask, he raised his leg and walked back. When he found his son and his daughter-in-law, the two were picking up the fallen leaves there, using the stalks of the fallen leaves to compete with each other to see who could give each other's petiole. Strangled.
"Father, you are here, are you busy ahead?" Zhang Xiaobao smiled and said hello when he saw his father coming.
Zhang Zhong looked at his son, then at his daughter-in-law, and picked up a leaf, walked up to Zhang Xiaobao and said, "Compare with Dad."
As soon as the two of them worked hard, Zhang Xiaobao, who fought for four games in a row, was cut off all at once, boasting, "Father, you are still great."
"What am I good at? I really can't guess how you want to keep sending money out of the house, what do you plan to do, tell Dad." Zhang Zhong threw away the leaves in his hand and asked.
"Father, how can you send money? Didn't you buy things? If the road is not repaired, you will delay things when you buy things. When you take office, we will bring them all, transport them to other places and sell them all the way. Along the way, wherever there is the same thing, we will collect it, and if there is none, we will take it out.
When we get to the place, we can make at least twice as much money. We are used to building roads and renting land for others. It is only more than 20,000 yuan. There is also money to buy various materials, 5,000 guan. We sell goods for seven. Wan Guan, don't you make ten thousand coins? In addition to the vegetables in the winter, even if you make a little less, you have to have a few thousand sticks.
You can learn to grow them elsewhere, but if we don’t have the experience, we must be still exploring. Our vegetables will be sold to the capital. It’s impossible for the capital to grow like us, right? There are many people there, and many people do not live on farming, nor do they have land.
I guess that this winter, our dishes can make 10,000 tongs. This is the law of business. It’s difficult to make a penny with a penny, and it’s also difficult to make a consistent with a penny. It’s too easy. I can earn ten times or twenty times, but it’s impossible to earn 10,000 tans with 10,000 tans. It’s better to earn three or four thousand tans with 10,000 tans than a hundred. easy. "
Zhang Xiaobao explained patiently to his father.
Zhang Zhong felt very reasonable after hearing this, "So, will you continue to spend money to buy?"
"Buy it. Before you go, we had better spend 100,000 guan. Our rice can be used as seeds. People in the surrounding counties and Huayuan County are rich, so they will naturally buy our seeds. It’s like selling it last year. How much will it cost for a pound of seeds for 20 cents?"
Zhang Xiaobao continued to count. Zhang Zhong calculated his own land slightly. If he could sell it at this price, three villagers would have nearly 20,000 mu of land. The output of the latter two villagers was not as high as the original ones, but not too small. The average output should be three stones per mu.
Twenty thousand acres is sixty thousand shi, and one stone is one hundred catties. That is two quintessence of money, and sixty thousand shi is 120,000 quins of money? so much
Zhang Xiaobao knows what his father thinks when he looks at his father’s expression. "Father, there are not so many. How could it be possible that one hundred and twenty thousand Guans, Shimoda and Nakata can’t be seeds, and the two Zhuangzis added later, if Ueda can be seeds, it’s only If it can be ten cents per catty, you have to talk to the person who bought it.
Including the money for selling seeds and grain, it would be good to have 40,000 grains. Do you count it as more than 20,000 mu of land? There are not so many, there are part of the mountains, part of the hills, the top of that hill is three miles from one end to the other, and it takes up more than a thousand acres at once. "
Zhang Zhong reacted this time. There was not as much as he had imagined. After two days, when the output there was reported, he would know how much there was. The output was calculated separately based on the upper, middle and lower three fields. After all, only Ueda. When the seed.
"Then do what my son said, continue to buy, and sell the seeds to them while buying. Sanshui County and Huayuan County should keep enough. Next year, Sanshui County will still be full of rice. Someone said this year, The grain yield per mu in Sanshui County is really 20% higher than usual, not a lot, especially for those who rent other people’s land and pay the rent, these two achievements are more than 50% left."
"Father, then you continue to spend money, waiting for the tax to be sent to the capital before the new year, the child is looking for you." Zhang Xiaobao said to his father.
Waiting for Zhang Zhong to leave, the two continued to play.
…
Li Xun has gone through untold hardships, and finally received more than 300 kilograms of Bai Diezi. It is not because of the lack of Bai Diezi. When harvesting, many cotton balls have been blown away by the wind. When the Zhang family harvests, they go outside to harvest, and they can harvest more than ten times.
More than three hundred catties, after picking out the impurities, and removing the seeds, there are still 290 catties left. Zhang Xiaobao left 90 catties as a processing fee and made 30 sets of bedding for Li Xun in a reduced amount.
Li Xun scolded Zhang Xiaobao for his black heart, and had to accept this. After all, it takes a lot of manpower to play and spin. The most important thing is the thing that can remove the seeds. It's exhausting.
"Xiaobao, can you tell me what to do with your seed-removing thing? I will plant it next year." Li Xun asked embarrassedly. He also knows how precious this thing is.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaobao promised very happily, "Okay, give you one. You will know what is going on after you let someone open it. If someone asks you, you can tell others. If you ask me, I will help you keep it secret. They are looking for you."
"Really? Your family doesn't want to hold something for more benefits?" Li Xun asked incredulously.
"My family is more desperate. Don't talk about this thing everywhere. After my family planted it there next year, you will also plant it here, and you will sell it for money, so that someone will come to you. My family will be content with one more year's worth of money."
Zhang Xiaobao still knows what can be kept in his own house and what must be given out. Not to say that it is now, that is then, how many of the richest men were cleaned up for being disobedient? Isn't it easy to find some crime
Li Xun happily agreed, and brought a tying machine back to let people study. Zhang Xiaobao suddenly felt a little uninterested, and then thought about the things of a few days, and suddenly became happy.
When there is still a month to go before the New Year, some places start to send tax to the capital, some will start next year, Huayuan County is close here, this year, and other nearby counties also start shipping at the same time. .
Zhang Zhong originally arranged for others to go there, but Zhang Xiaobao found his father at this time.
"Father, I have to tell you something. This time you are going to escort things in person. It's best to talk with the surrounding counties and their magistrates and masters. That's it."
As Zhang Xiaobao was talking, he brought his back to the front, and the paper was full of words.
