Born into a farm family, I became rich by pressuring my parents.

Chapter 61

What has the most docks?Of course it’s the goods.

If you can't even get transportation, how can anyone want to come here?
The less money you have, the less likely you are to renovate it; the less you don’t renovate it, the less money you will have.

It's simply a vicious cycle.

Jiang Mingshun took out a keychain from his waist and rummaged through it for a long time before he found the key to the house.

Jiang Jinyu stood in the yard and looked around. The houses were relatively new and made of bricks and tiles. However, because no one had lived in them for half a year, they looked somewhat desolate.

The house is like this, no matter how well it is built, if no one lives in it, it will look dilapidated in a few months.

There was no time to clean up at the moment. Jiang Mingshun led the mule cart directly to the stable in the backyard. After tying the mules, he took some fodder and bean cakes from the cloth bag and put them in the trough, and then led Jiang Jinyu back to the market.

In the middle of the morning, most of the breakfast stalls were filled.

Jiang Jinyu was in a hurry to go shopping, so she bought two steamed buns for breakfast on the way.

Compared with the two meals a day in Huangtian Village, most people in the city are still accustomed to three meals a day.

One is to get up early and work.

The city is not like the village. When you are hungry, you can just find something to eat at the bar. How can you work for others and still go out to eat on the way?

Secondly, it is also because the living standard in the city is higher.

There is a breakfast shop just outside the door. The price is not high and it is convenient. If you go out and buy one or two steamed buns, you will have energy all morning.

Jiang Jinyu held Jiang Mingshun's hand and looked around the market curiously along with the flow of people.

Just happened to have a ship docking.

I saw the idlers who were squatting in twos and threes chatting in the corner of the street suddenly swarmed up. Some came forward with goods to sell, and more of them were trying to get helpers to unload the goods.

Jiang Mingshun stopped and looked at the crowded and noisy crowd over there. After a long time, he sighed: "I was just like them last year."

"Sometimes if you are lucky and have work for a day, you can get twenty cents."

"If you are unlucky, not only will you have to squat for a day in vain, but you will also have to pay for a meal."

"In the future, dad will never have to be like them again." Jiang Jinyu listened to her dad quietly.

"Yes," Jiang Mingshun said in a brisk tone: "After all, we have to get better and better."

The two of them walked around until noon, randomly found a noodle stall on the street, and each ordered a bowl of braised pork noodles for lunch.

It was not until the end of the year that Zheng Zhongren finally arrived.

After another round of greetings, Jiang Mingshun directly expressed his intention to Zheng Zhongren.

"Brother Jiang," Zheng Zhongren was quite shocked: "Have you really found a way?"

Jiang Mingshun looked into his eyes and nodded without any hesitation or guilt.

"Okay, I'll take you to find the shopkeeper of the Qu family." Although Zheng Zhongren was extremely curious, he felt like there was a cat's claw scratching his heart, and the words rolled around his mouth a few times before swallowing with difficulty.

Jiang Mingshun came to see him more than ten days ago, saying that he wanted to help pay attention to the movements of Zhuangzi of the Qu family.

Zheng Zhongren thought he was planning to borrow money to buy Zhuangzi, and kindly advised him that these things could not be bought with money, and there was no need to take the risk of arrears.

But Jiang Mingshun said that he had another way.

Zheng Zhongren didn't want to ask too many questions, but because of his old friendship, he went to ask for news every now and then, so he knew that Zhuangzi was indeed still in the hands of Master Qu.

Jiang Mingshun first led Zheng Zhongren to the house in Maxi Lane. The mule cart and wine barrels were still there.

It was Jiang Mingshun who drove the car as usual, and Zheng Zhongren got into the trunk with Jiang Jinyu.

It smelled of alcohol, and as soon as Zheng Zhongren got in the car, he smelled something different from the past.

It is a kind of wine with a refreshing fragrance, which is quite different from the grain wine often drunk in Guangxin County. It can be easily distinguished even if the lid is closed.It turns out that this is the case. Zheng Zhongren sighed in his heart. No wonder Jiang Mingshun was so confident. It turned out that he had brewed such wine.

Naturally, the three of them couldn't go directly to the Qu family to find someone, since no one had the face to do so.

Zheng Zhongren took Jiang Mingshun to the Qujia Liquor Shop.

"Hey," the waiter obviously knew Zheng Zhongren. He opened the corner door and greeted him enthusiastically: "Zheng Zhongren is here, but do you have anything to do with our shopkeeper?"

Zheng Zhongren cupped his hands and said, "It's true that I have something to do with Shopkeeper Zhao."

"Is shopkeeper Zhao in the shop?"

He had done business with Shopkeeper Zhao in the past, and he got the news this time from him.

"The shopkeeper is in the backyard." Hearing this, the waiter hurriedly led the people inside.

Jiang Mingshun followed behind, and as he passed through the wine shop, his peripheral vision scanned the entire shop, and there was not even a single customer.

He couldn't help but secretly thought that it seemed that the Qu family's business slump was indeed a fact, and the situation might even be worse than the rumors.

In this way, it is good news for him.

Several people stopped when they arrived in the yard, and the waiter stepped forward and knocked on the door to report the news.

After receiving the news, shopkeeper Zhao put down his account book and followed the waiter out of the study.

"Zheng Zhongren," he cupped his hands and said loudly, "It's been a long time since I saw him."

When Zheng Zhongren saw Shopkeeper Zhao coming out, he immediately raised his luggage and said, "Haha, Shopkeeper Zhao, you are very busy."

The two complimented each other, and Shopkeeper Zhao's eyes fell on Jiang Mingshun next to Zheng Zhongren: "This is..."

Zheng Zhongren stepped aside, with a somewhat mysterious expression on his face: "This is the God of Wealth!"

"But," he winked at Shopkeeper Zhao: "How much you can earn depends on whether Shopkeeper Zhao gives you this opportunity."

Shopkeeper Zhao understood and thought that since there was nothing else to do at the moment, why not just see what kind of medicine this man was selling.

He turned slightly sideways, with a decent smile on his face, stretched out his hand and said, "Please, please, let's go into the study and talk in detail."

Watching the little girl open the door quickly with her feet, she immediately backed out after they entered, and finally closed the door carefully, keeping her head slightly lowered during the whole process, but her movements were extremely smooth.

Seeing this, Jiang Mingshun couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, they were a famous and wealthy family in Guangxin County. Even their servants were different from those outside.

Shopkeeper Zhao asked the two of them to sit down at the desk and poured two cups of tea with his own hands.

Seeing a little girl next to him, he was stunned for a moment and then turned around and took down a box from the shelf.

With a kind smile, he opened the box and placed it in front of Jiang Jinyu: "Little girl, have some snacks."

Jiang Jinyu took a random piece from it and thanked shopkeeper Zhao.

Shopkeeper Zhao sat back on his seat, straightened his expression and said to Jiang Mingshun: "Mr. Jiang, can you tell me in detail now?"

When Jiang Mingshun received the vague look from Zheng Zhongren, he no longer hid it and directly revealed all his plans.

"You mean," Shopkeeper Zhao carefully savored Jiang Mingshun's words and tried his best to extract key information from them: "You want to use a new wine-making method to trade with my eldest young master for the village outside Nancheng."

"Yes." Jiang Mingshun nodded to indicate that he understood correctly.

Shopkeeper Zhao didn't say anything for a while, then suddenly laughed and asked, "How can you conclude that our Qu family needs your so-called brewing method?"

"Even if I really need it."

"Aren't you worried that I will use some means to steal your bargaining chip?"
