Invincible son

Chapter 541 540 [Everything is ready]

The roads in the village are horizontal and vertical, and the ground is paved with bluestones. The network of canals beside the roads is very complete.

Ye Qi still remembers what the original site of Lvliuzhuang in the eastern suburbs looked like. All the houses were crowded together in a disorderly manner, and there was only an open space in front of the main house where Pei Yue lived.Every household raises livestock, excrement and filth can be seen everywhere on the road, and every time it rains, the mud is mixed together, making people nowhere to stay.

Compared with it, the current Green Willow Village can be described as a brand new world.

Pei Yue did not spend much money to buy this piece of land from the imperial court, including the main area of ​​Zhuangzi and the 8000 mu of land on the other side of the river, the total was only [-] taels of silver.

The reason is that from Emperor Kaiping to the head of the household department in the court, they all knew how important the briquette prescription presented by Pei Yue was, and it would not be an exaggeration to call it priceless.Under this major premise, the new Minister of the Household Department even asked the emperor to directly reward this piece of land to Pei Yue, and in the end Pei Yue forcibly handed over 8000 taels of silver.

After looking at the outer defense system, the four of them walked towards the inner core area.

The residents in the village had already informed each other, and they stood at the gates of their respective houses and looked at Pei Yue respectfully, and they could hear friendly shouts of "Young Master" along the road.Pei Yue signaled with a smile, and then told them not to wait, it was only right to go about their own affairs.

To be honest, the soldiers of Zangfengwei may not be as loyal to Pei Yue as these village households.

Now in the entire Green Willow Village, there is no adult man who is still digging food in the land, either in the business or in the mine, or as an errand in the Zhongshan Hou's mansion. Except for the old, young, women and children, there is only one in the village. A guard team consisting of more than 50 people.

Walking along the road, Ye Qi felt as if she had passed away. After thinking for a while, she reminded: "Pei Yue, are the guards in the village weaker?"

Pei Yue nodded and said, "Yes."

Ye Qi knew that there must be something to say, so he waited quietly.

Pei Yue said softly: "Originally, I entrusted this matter to Mr. Xi. With him sitting here, and training a group of good players, I don't have to worry about those Xiao Xiaoxiao. Mr. won't come back for a while. When I was in Lingzhou After thinking about this issue, I finally plan to let those soldiers with damaged limbs in the Zangfeng Guard live in. Although they are not suitable for staying in the army, they are more than enough to guard this village with their abilities. Of course, I value them most. loyalty."

Ye Qi said: "That's fine."

There is a large building complex behind the main house, with tall outer walls and closed eaves, which looks a lot like granaries used to store grain in the Changping warehouses in various places.Pei Yue stopped in front of the closed gate, turned around and said to Deng Zai and Wang Yong, "Come in together."

"Yes, young master." The two agreed in unison.

The inside is unique, the ventilation and lighting measures are well done, and it is divided into different areas.

Both Deng Zai and Wang Yong entered this mysterious place for the first time, and they were a little nervous, and they crept along the way, not even daring to breathe.

Seeing this, Pei Yue smiled and said: "Don't be so nervous, there aren't too many secrets in it right now. Before that, my husband and I just worked out some things together, and we haven't started to do anything really powerful."

After all, he led everyone into the first area.

Ye Qi looked at the bottles and cans on the shelf, and asked curiously, "What's inside?"

Pei Yue said gently, "Open it and have a look."

Ye Qi took down a jar, opened the seal, and a strong aroma of wine rushed into everyone's noses instantly.

Wang Yong's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "What a strong wine!"

Pei Yue pointed to the utensils next to him and said, "You all have a taste."

Deng Zai fetched four wine cups, Wang Yong took the wine jar from Ye Qi, and poured some carefully.

"This wine is better than Pingjiang Shuangzheng!" Deng Zai praised with surprise after tasting it.

Ye Qi asked: "How is this wine made?"

Pei Yue briefly explained the distillation method. Seeing that she was still in a daze, he skipped the topic, turned to look at Wang Yong and said, "You take a sum of money from the firm and prepare to build a liquor store near Yongzhou in the southern suburbs of Kyoto." Workshop. If there are people making things difficult for the imperial court, use my name to open up the relationship. After the winery is completed, I will tell you the detailed and complete wine making method."

Wang Yong bowed and said, "Yes."

Pei Yue continued: "Look for some experienced buddies and craftsmen in the capital. Don't worry about the cost, but you must find the kind of people who know the background and are innocent."

Wang Yong nodded and said, "Okay, young master."

Ye Qi took another small porcelain bottle from the shelf, opened it, sniffed it on the tip of his nose, and said, "It smells so weird."

Pei Yue smiled and said, "That's a good thing."

Ye Qi poured some fine powder from the porcelain bottle, spread it on his palm and studied it carefully.

Of course Deng Zai and Wang Yong didn't dare to approach, they just stretched their necks and watched, curious about the baby's expression.

Pei Yue took the porcelain bottle from Ye Qi, handed it to Deng Zai, and said calmly, "This is a seasoning for cooking."

Deng Zai smelled it, and said uncertainly: "It's a bit fishy, ​​it seems to be seafood."

Pei Yue looked at him in a little surprise, and said slowly: "I have a good eye. I also knew by chance that there were fishes caught by Qinzhou fishermen from the vast sea in Duzhong, and I found a species called sea sausage. The product. The powder you see now is made from sea sausage, and if it is added to dishes, it will taste extremely delicious."

Deng Zai asked cautiously: "Master, are you planning to open a restaurant in Kyoto?"

After tasting that unique spirit and seeing this sausage powder, it's no wonder he thought so.

It's just that Ye Qi's expression couldn't be called excited. Obviously, in their opinion, even if the restaurant and restaurant could earn money, it didn't fit Pei Yue's current status.He has the Xiangyun in his hand, and just monopolizing the briquette business with a population of more than 100 million in Kyoto has extremely rich profits. Even if the dividends are distributed to the seven noble mansions including Gu Fan every year, the Zhongshan Hou Mansion still occupies the majority .

In the past two years, after deducting the investment in the firm and the mine, and deducting the dividends of the remaining seven companies, the spare money in Pei Yue's hands has reached a terrifying 100 million taels, and this amount is still accumulating and increasing , it is no exaggeration to use the family of the rich to evaluate.

Of course Deng Zai and Wang Yong understood the reason why money is not too much, but they didn't quite understand the reason why Pei Yue was so serious.

Pei Yue was not surprised by their reaction. After all, his thinking was a little ahead of his time in general, and it was difficult for them to keep up with his own thinking. However, he didn't explain immediately, but looked at Ye Qi with a smile and asked, "What do you think?" Guess what I want to do?"

Ye Qi thought about it quietly, and then said uncertainly after a while: "Bamboo building?"
