Fight the Giants

Chapter 425: Earn a lot

  Kan Er felt that today's camp was somewhat strange.

  There was a plate of barbecue in front of everyone, and everyone was turning and rubbing it with a small wooden tube, and they looked like they were enjoying it.

  He felt that he should not be too different, so he looked around and twisted a few times on the deliciously grilled meat.

  Looking at the finely divided powder falling on it, I happily wiped it with my finger twice, then put my finger into my mouth, and sipped it twice. It smells, really smells.

   Enjoy it with a face.

   Turning to see the young master looking at him with disgust, he smiled and handed over the meat: "Master, you eat."

  Mu Yan tilted his head in disgust, twisted the grinding cylinder gracefully, then spread the pepper and salt evenly with his dagger, cut a piece with the dagger, and put it into his mouth with the fork of the dagger.

  Young master eats beautifully, and you can feel full just by looking at it. But what's the use of looking good, can you eat more? It has to be delicious meat.

   I forked another piece and put it in my mouth. I just think that the meat tonight is especially delicious.

   "When we came to the north, there was no such thing in Beijing. When did it appear?"

   "I haven't finished eating the pepper that my family gave out last year. Why don't you let me send some? I don't eat it at home. It's better if we eat meat like this."

   "I also have some pepper left at home. I also wrote to my family and asked them to send it along with the letter."

  Several generals were discussing grinding cylinders and pepper, and Mu Yan's expression moved.

   After returning to the tent, he also spread out the paper to write a letter.

  Kan Er leaned over and took a look, "It's not for Madam... for Mrs. Huo?"

  Glared at by Mu Yan, a little confused.

   Li Yi gave him a hand and scolded him for being stupid.

Said: "I asked about the grinding cylinder. The quartermaster purchased it from the Guangfengshui shop in Beiping. Today everyone said that they would send letters to their families and send pepper. Does Guangfengshui still have business? This cylinder is well done. It is so delicate, and the blades inside are made of iron, so use it carefully, it may last for many years. Guangfeng Shui may lose some business."

  Kan Er oh, "Master, do you want to write a letter to Miss Huo to remind you?"

  Mu Yan looked a little uncomfortable, and he didn't know why he wanted to write to her.

  Cleared his throat, and said something for himself: "I still hold 20% of the dry shares of Guangfeng Water. If she earns less, doesn't it mean that my money is also less?"

   "Ah, that's right, the young master's money can't be missing, the southwest side is a bottomless pit, just waiting to reach out to the young master."

   After Kan Er finished speaking, he turned around and went to grind ink for Mu Yan, urging him to write quickly so that he could send it as soon as possible. Looks like a dog leg.

   Li looked at the young master and smiled.

  After the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, the young master has turned 18 years old, and 19 years old is the age to hold a baby.

  The next day, Mu Yan asked Li to post a letter, and turned to go to the big account post.

  Turning around, he saw Zhang Fuzheng instructing the courier to send the letter for him. After thinking about it, he moved over there.

   "Meet Xinchenghou."

   "It's Young Master."

   "Xincheng Hou was joking. I am just the heir of the big house now. It is fine for Master Hou to call the boy by his name. Master Hou is sending a letter to the family?"

  Zhang Fu nodded with a smile, watched the messenger go away, and walked back with Mu Yan.

   "I went to the battlefield with your grandfather and your father. The two of them were not afraid of life and death, and led the army to charge into battle. They were rare good generals in our Wei Dynasty. It's a pity that they died young."

  Looking at Mu Bin next to him, he is young. He heard that he is quite outstanding in Wentao and Wulu. Given time, his achievements will definitely not be inferior to his father and grandfather.

  David Chao was afraid that he could get another good general, so he felt relieved.

   "Who doesn't know that Rong Guogong and Xinchenghou father and son are brave and good at fighting, wise and courageous. Bin, I admire you very much."

  The two flattered each other a few words.

Seeing his happy expression, Mu Yan suddenly said: "I heard from the shopkeeper of my family in Sichuan and Sichuan that I met the former Guozijian Master Jijiu in Shangyong before. Seeing that he is old, he wants to dig river ditches and build dams himself. The family is young. The males are not spared, and the whole family is naked, which is really deplorable."

  Mu Yan walked away, but Zhang Fu stayed where he was, as if he was being pinned down.

  He sent someone to send things to his father-in-law's family every year and holiday, and he also sent a lot of money. Why is the family still naked? Didn't the father-in-law use silver to do the work?

  Huo Xi received a letter from Mu Yan who sent someone to send it quickly. He really didn't expect her to send it to the north. He wanted to sell the pepper tubes further north, but he sold them to the military camp.

  After reading it, he hurriedly called Shen Qianzhong to discuss matters.

   "Soon there should be a grinding cylinder in Beijing. This is our business, and we can't let others take the lead." Shen Qianzhong was a little anxious when he heard the news.

   "Have all the peppers in circulation on the market been withdrawn?"

   "Accepted, but there is still a warehouse in the Shibo Department, and I am afraid that there are many merchants who go to sea." There is no way to collect them all.

   "It's okay, as long as you can take back most of the ones that are in circulation on the market. Arrange immediately, and put grinding cylinders in our two shops."

  After listening to it, Shen Qianzhong hurried to make arrangements.

   Sure enough, not long after the grinding cylinder was put on the shelf in Guangfengshui, there were imitations in Beijing.

  However, there is a large amount of pepper stored in the Guangfeng Reservoir, and someone else made a grinding cylinder one step ahead, and others wanted to sell it, but they couldn't find it.

   Since it was put on the shelves, it has been bombarded and sold very well. At the beginning, the imitation was only filled with pepper. Seeing that Guangfengshui sold pepper grinders and pepper salt, he followed suit.

   Also steal some business. However, due to insufficient supply, it did not have much impact on Guangfeng Water's business.

  In this way, at the end of December, Shen Qianzhong excitedly took the account book, "The fans in Ningbo have snapped up a lot. They are sold out of stock. The Fan merchants from Nanyang are also rushing to buy."

   "The merchants from Nanyang are probably looking at the grinding cylinder, not the pepper."

   "Yes, it seems that this grinding cylinder will also appear overseas."

  Huo Xi was not worried. She was already content to be able to earn this wave of money earlier. Looking through the ledger, she found that this wave of selling pepper and grinding cylinders had already made her a lot of money. It also drove Jingzhong pepper back to six yuan a catty.

  My wallet is bulging, so I am naturally happy.

  In mid-December, shopkeepers from all over the country entered Beijing one after another.

   It's time for another year of accounting.

  This year, Huo Xi directly squeezed from the small to the big. Although she bought a lot of property in the north this year, because Yang Fu went to Dongyang last year, and selling pepper and sugar this year, Huo Xi became a wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River.

congratulations.

   She was so happy that she kept a high profile for several days.

   Instructed shopkeeper Shen to send thick red envelopes to the shopkeepers, and also sent a wave of Chinese New Year gifts to the female craftsmen in the two workshops. The servants of the family also receive rewards and things, so they are so happy that they can see their teeth but not their eyes.

   "Grandma, grandma, look, Huzi got it!" Huzi was holding a bunch of things, and he couldn't see the way, so he trotted to find Mrs. Li.

  Grandma Li took it over with a smile, carefully put away the tael of silver that Huzi gave her, and touched the two pieces of cloth: "Grandma also issued cloth, this year our grandparents and grandchildren will not be short of new clothes to wear."

  Grandma Li felt like drinking honey.

   I didn’t expect my grandson not only to learn, but also to learn Kung Fu. He usually gets coins for doing small jobs in the workshop. She finally didn't have to worry about Huzi's life being lost after she left.

  On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Yang Fu, who had been looking forward to it for seven or eight months, finally arrived in Beijing safely.
