My live broadcast room communicates ancient and modern

Chapter 293: The grapevine spreads in 4 places

During this trip, Zhao Dashan's wife revealed three things to Mrs. Xu.

One is:

"I heard that a large area of ​​land has been set aside by the Zhenbei Army. In the spring, people will clear the wasteland, grow vegetables and grain, and raise cattle and sheep.

In addition to the military rations provided by the imperial court, this is a better way to recruit food.

Do as the Romans do, and asked Dashan to pick 200 women from poor families and innocent backgrounds, and take them to the camp tomorrow to pick up soybean paste, sauerkraut, pickles, and store them. "

At this time, Dashan's daughter-in-law was holding her arms with Mrs. Xu, biting her ears and talking, and continued to tell:

"In addition, I also heard that we are looking for craftsmen to build a fire wall in the spring, and the Kang that has been deposited for many years in the camp will also be removed. It seems that there are many more houses to be built, and which houses in the camp have collapsed and need to be rebuilt.

This is just talk, it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that the designation of building the house has nothing to do with us anyway. They can do the detailed work of repairing the general's mansion, so it is impossible to come to us.

But if we are not locals, how can they build a fire wall?

Even if the original Zhenbei Army old man could do this job, he must not be very good at it. Otherwise, would they need to find new craftsmen?

And the new general’s surname is Huo, right, aunt? A true nobleman from an aristocratic family is not short of money. We guess that he must have been unwilling to deal with anything since he was a child. If he wanted to clean up the fire kang, he must either not renovate it, or if he remodeled it, he must burn it to keep warm. He is a truly considerate soldier, unlike the previous one.

When I heard this, I quickly said to Dashan, whose craftsmanship can be as good as that of my aunt's fire wall? Why are you still asking around?

Auntie, if you are willing to earn this little money, ask your second brother and the others to form a team. When the time comes, no matter if it’s the church’s side or if you just do the work for us to save worry, you’ll always be able to earn two. "

Dashan's daughter-in-law guessed that even if she didn't want the people to roam around in the military camp, she would still be rewarded with at least fifty taels of silver if she only taught him that craft and then withdrew.

This is called telling the other side the secret of the North: the method of building a fire dragon on a large fire bed. Don't underestimate it, it's very difficult. If you don't get it right, it will emit black smoke and choke people to death.

Mrs. Xu patted Dashan's wife's hand and said:

"Hongmei, what you said is so right. It doesn't matter whether our family earns this little money or not. But when our family was building the shop, Cao, one of the four major surnames in the village, helped a lot. I kept saying that I would help him find work. , look, isn’t this coming? It’s just the beginning of spring, and you can’t catch fish on the ice on the river. Let Lao Cao’s family bring some boys from the village who can do this kind of work to build a kang, even if it’s just to teach them how to do it. In the end, each of them can get three to five taels of silver, so they can make a lot of money without getting tired."

Moreover, after taking over the order from Zhenbei Army, we can advertise it. When we sell it to big families in the future, we can say that Erdaohe has built Zhenbei Army’s large fire kang.

"As for the pickles, our village will not participate. We can't just do all the money-making work. Let Dashan look for a truly poor woman, and also consider looking for someone who can cook more cleanly. This is what the people above said. If you say that, I will be very busy and think carefully about all aspects. Don't look for those people to bury. If you look back, they don't know those women, and they will only feel that Zhao Zhenting did something inappropriate. "

Dashan's daughter-in-law Hongmei said happily: "Yes, Auntie, I will remind him later."

As for the second thing, it was just gossip. Chatting with her aunt who was like her mother-in-law. Hongmei didn't care whether her words were useful or not.

Anyway, every time she noticed that Zhao Dashan was talking to others, he always had the same thought.

That is, even if the news is of no use to me, what if it is useful to my aunt?

But she had a principle. For fear of cheating her own men, she did not tell her own mother, let alone other people, about the gossip she overheard. She only told her aunt.

“Our town is going to have a lot of new residents, and I heard that every city has to accept refugees wherever there is a disaster.

There are also many officials who have been kidnapped due to the disaster, and many prisoners who have to be exiled here.

The good thing is that even when merchants come here to open workshops, they have to add many new ones.

I heard that there are people coming to open oil shops, wine shops, firecracker workshops, and there are three new blacksmith shops. It will be very convenient for us to buy iron pots and those guys who farm in the future, unlike Blacksmith Wu’s family who got nothing when we asked.

There are also sugar workshops, auntie, sugar, I guess people selling clothing materials and cotton will also come and open a shop.

Auntie, this is the shop where we often buy food. What do you think he is busy with this year? "

"What are you busy with?"

"He's busy selling his house in the city, and he's building a warehouse and adding a shop to store grain here. That guy has always been a smart guy, and he's obviously got a lot of money, but he's never been shy.

Tsk, who is that? Auntie knows about Mr. Qian, so she has a good relationship with him. I heard that this time Mr. Qian borrowed a lot of silver from the owner of the grain shop. I only heard rumors from the old man’s wife and his wife. I’m not sure whether it’s true or not.

Anyway, due to the mutual market, the floating population here will only increase. People are afraid that they can’t keep up with food rations. If we sell a house in the city, we will have to sell grain in a large village. From now on, if we buy rice and noodles, there will no longer be a shop to sell them. Empty thing.

Auntie, do you think this proves that outside businessmen are very optimistic about our place? You must know that those who do business cannot do it even if they don’t have a good brain. "

Mrs. Xu thought to herself that she was very familiar with Mr. Qian. She came quietly with the general last time.

It can be inferred from this.

First, taking advantage of the mutual market to accept businessmen from all over the world to come here to open a semi-colon, coupled with the mutual trade teams running around and accepting refugees and prisoners, when there are more people like this, those who take advantage of the water may be able to sneak in. A confidant of General Shao Huo.

These henchmen may not necessarily have force value, but they will definitely know something. It's like being able to take the lead in forging a weapon and teaching it to others. This thing is like being able to give birth to a child. It's good to have a bunch of people who can do this kind of craft.

The second point can be inferred from the good relationship between Qian Yuanwai and the owner of the grain store. Even though the owner is a local cannon, he may not be a confidant of the Zhenbei Army at the moment. But it’s coming soon, maybe it’s developing. Then, by using the local grain dealer's inconspicuous identity, he can collect more private grain in addition to military grain. It just so happened that the excuse was ready. There were many people trading with each other, and there wasn't that much land to plant and there wasn't that much grain. So how could people do business if they didn't buy grain?

And if you look at the newly opened shops, they seem to be what ordinary people need, but what is food and what is sugar?

The business of the firecracker shop is a little more sensitive, and I don't know if the relationship between the general's colleagues is the same. But even if there were officials sent by the emperor to supervise the general, they would think that there was a certain amount of black powder in the firecrackers. If black powder was so effective, the battle would have been won long ago, and the enemy would not have been nearly attacked by foreigners many years ago. They crossed Shanhaiguan and headed towards the capital.

But she knew in her heart that the black gunpowder stuff produced saltpeter, and then mixed it with the oil in her granddaughter's black workshop...

Old Mrs. Xu held her forehead, her granddaughter hadn't gone home for dinner yet, and was working in the small workshop making weapons. So Dashan's wife just mentioned that they were going to build a large oil mill here, and she thought to herself: Hongmei, maybe the oil will be smuggled to her house in the future.

In short, if you don’t believe it, just look back. On the surface, the newly opened workshops here in Beidi are unrelated, but they are all very particular, and the owner behind them may not be who: "Hongmei, don't worry about other places." We will open a semicolon for businessmen who come to our place. You should be polite when dealing with Dashan and other people, and just handle things normally, don't make things difficult."

"Auntie, am I that kind of person?" Dashan's daughter-in-law thought to herself: She was short-sighted for just one moment and almost regretted it. She misjudged the Xu family and Tian Xin. This lesson has been learned enough, otherwise she would have been regarded as a fool by her aunt. My daughter took such good care of me. Of course, that's fine for now. It would be nice to be able to give the thoughtful aunt some practical advice.

Besides, I am just doing small business, so I have nothing to look down on from businessmen.

She has a different background from those so-called ladies, and she does not dislike yellow and white things as tacky. She knows that if you don’t have money, you can eat and drink whatever you want. If you don’t have money to eat and drink, how can she be so pretty? Mrs. Zhenting also needs money to have enough to eat.

Old Mrs. Xu thought to herself: Not to mention, there is really a shortage of medicinal materials at the general's place, and the medicinal material merchants haven't come to open a shop yet. Medicinal materials are different from harvesting grain and weapons. You can grow your own grain. If necessary, you can seize the grain without paying taxes to the court. You can also make your own weapons by finding iron ore. If you don’t buy the medicinal materials, you really don’t have them.

No way? Does she have a backup plan or is she really counting on her granddaughter? But other than that, General, her granddaughter's kid is unreliable. Let’s not mention whether the medicines planted are useful or not; their properties are uncertain. Just how long it had been, her granddaughter had already set aside five acres of land to grow mushrooms for her to eat.

"Aunt?"

"Huh? Go on, what other exciting news is there outside? It's a big deal to open this shop. If you hadn't come, Auntie wouldn't have heard anything." It will be fine after a while. Mrs. Xu plans to do a live broadcast. When the sales started, she wanted to stay with a few apprentice chefs, so she took Xu Tianxin and ran away from home. Otherwise, even if the kids in the family are completely stupid, they will still feel something is wrong when they see the big lumps and salted duck eggs turned out to be nothing.

Just wait until it gets warm outside, and then their grandparents will fly away.

Let's take this opportunity to "buy some fine salt". Our family can't afford not to buy good salt all the time.

I use the price difference to go out to eat and drink with my granddaughter. If I can't spend it, I save some money for my granddaughter to live broadcast with the family. I also want to take a trip to some remote places, such as Leijiawo, to collect some mountain goods and earn some money, so that my family can see what a big forest in the high Xing'an Mountains is like.

It’s time to change the content of live broadcasts from time to time. Only then will the live broadcast room be interesting.

Dashan’s daughter-in-law Hongmei said excitedly:

"If anything else, our town will set off fireworks on the 15th of this year. Auntie, if you don't have guests then go for a walk. If you can't come back at night, stay at our house.

As for the firecracker workshop I mentioned before, they set off fireworks for everyone to get off to a good start, and the owner of the restaurant in the town also took advantage of this to guess lantern riddles.

This year is really different from previous years. It’s really fun to see everyone making some money.

correct! I heard that the female general also gave our Tianxin fireworks and firecrackers? I've heard from the old clerk's wife since I came back, and it's spread all over the town. "

To be honest, you are really capable. I have heard that people who marry well rely on men, but the girl from Erdaohe is strange. She relies on female generals. Just such a lonely female official was taken out by Tian Xin.

Hongmei laughed at the end of the story and didn't bother to explain, saying that the Xu family's success was all due to that person, and that Tian Xin was introduced to the soap locust business by the female general.

She even complained to Zhao Dashan when she got home, as if the Xu family only relied on that kind of business to make money. Dashan immediately said: After delivering the goods, it is true that Tian Xin'er did not make money from saponins, and Tian Xin'er switched to selling medicine again.

"Also, Auntie, what Dakui and Dashan said. I heard that on the 15th, many soldiers and generals will come out to the Zhenbei Military Camp for shopping. Auntie, do the math. How many days have passed since the change of generals to now? Months old? I heard that the soldiers were ready to be released the first time. Many people will be resting on the 15th this time. I guess there is no food in the cook camp, so we must buy it. "

Hongmei covered her mouth and smiled:

"So Auntie will give me more glutinous rice balls and pastries this time, as well as intestines and sticky bean bun instant noodles. Whatever you have, I will order more.

You don’t know, the shops in our town will be open one after another on these two days. In previous years, it would be the seventh or eighth day of the Lunar New Year. In addition to hoping that the merchants who have not left can spend two more, they are also looking forward to that person coming out to eat and drink on the 15th, so that we can make a few bucks.

You must know that even if the Zhenbei veterans don't buy anything, Dashan said, there will be a lot of Huo Jiajun following the general this time. The Huo family's military pay was so generous that they trained hard for several months without spending a single penny. Those people were designated to come out for a toothpaste ceremony. "

Her family, Zhao Dashan, was in the Huo Family Army Camp in the northwest. I heard that Xiu Mushi, who knew how to live well, would go to the city with his friends to eat some meat.

Mrs. Xu's eyes lit up: "The camp is open?"

"That's right. Auntie, hurry up and make more glutinous rice balls. My shop is too busy cooking and taking out. Do you want to take the glutinous rice balls around the town to eat, drink and sell them? Actually..."

Hongmei paused after saying this and smiled:

"Actually, I've been thinking about it, should you consider driving directly to Daying to sell glutinous rice balls or something? Make it more lively.

If you can’t find the right place, let Dashan tell you where to go.

Why, those people can't buy anything when they come out. There are still people who are too lazy to come out and need to have their teeth punched.

To put it more seriously, we ask the common people to be kind to the generals of the Zhenbei Army and think what they want.

However, no matter how good it is, I don’t dare to go. I've been thinking about it, Auntie, your family is really the only one with such confidence. I asked my nephew to go, his head was shaking like a rattle, but we have a Tianxin at home! "

Above, when Hongmei left, there was foam at the corner of her mouth. Before she finished chatting, she drank half a ladle of warm water and wiped her mouth, saying: "I really didn't talk enough, but it's dark, and the city gate will be closed if I don't go through."

"Hongmei, then I'll make some more and deliver them to you on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. I've even given you a small flower basket filled with fifteen-year-old glutinous rice balls. If you know those wealthy people in the town, you can get the goods earlier." I can sell it to them.”

"okay!"

Hongmei thought to herself: At first, she only wanted to give her aunt silver earrings to silver earrings, but as she made money and by the end of the year, she just gritted her teeth and went straight to gold earrings!

Otherwise, if someone wears a gold one, she will give him a silver one? She needs to be more generous when dealing with the Xu family. Regardless of whether she is giving them instructions or doing business, sooner or later she will make money without suffering any losses.

……

That night, Uncle Xu took a sip of wine. He was thinking about what the boys in Xujiazhuang said about helping his mother chop wood. He regretted that he didn't bring his books with him today. When Xu Jiashan, Liu Jingdong and the others finally arrived home in the dark.

Xu Tianxin also just came back from making glycerin and was eating.

It was past nine o'clock at night, and she saw the thousand-year-old amber wood bar that her second uncle carried into the house. The noodles in her mouth were broken.

Hearing that there was also Manchurian ash, Xu Tianxin hurriedly took the noodle bowl and hid in the house.

This section cannot be broadcast, so quickly find sacking pieces to cover the wood. Once caught by her, illegal felling of rare and valuable wood will result in a life sentence, the system will automatically lock the screen, and a fine of five taels will be issued. Her family had previously been fined for not broadcasting live for many days. It's okay to cut down ash here, but it's not worth being fined by the live broadcast room.

Just when Xu Tianxin thought this, she heard her second uncle tell her from across the door that it was illegal here: "Mom, I accidentally cut down the beauty pine in the General's Mansion. I only saw the wooden sign when the tree fell."

Mrs. Xu said: "Are you really careless? Such a thick tree king."

After a while, Liu Laozhu came over wearing a cotton-padded jacket and told a few more tricks. In short, if no one asks, don't say anything. We just happened to take a small road and come back after dark.

If someone asked him to pay the lumber tax back, he would say that he had forgotten his act and would not pay it, because he had derelict in his duty. Normally, Li Zhenghe and the village didn't report it and didn't rush to pay taxes, mainly because there were beautiful pine trees, and he didn't know how much tax he should pay, alas.

Liu Laozhu was still having supper at Xu's house. Mrs. Xu gave these boys, including Xiaozhu and Hongzao Daddy, stir-fried eggs with soy sauce to stir-fry them. Liu Jingdong ate a bowl of noodles with one mouthful of garlic and one mouthful of noodles.

I probably ate too much and couldn't lie down, so I went home to polish my ink and suddenly wanted to compose a poem.

Liu Jingdong muttered:

These big trees were thick and strong, and four of them were cut down.

Today the master surrounds you and takes you home to be the center beam.

Liu Laozhu slapped the old man on the head and cursed: "Hu, a dog can't hold two taels of sesame oil in its belly every day. Can this matter be written up?"

Liu Jingdong was so wronged that he had already collected six poems to record the beautiful day. Next, he also wrote about how delicious Xu's noodles were.
