Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang

"Fifteen cents a catty for medium charcoal, and five to ten cents more for Shangcheng cigarettes. What do you want?"

Zhang Fangyuan went to the largest charcoal fire store first in the city, and there were some customers at that time.

Although charcoal fires in the city are not as easy to sell in summer and autumn as in winter, they can also be operated on weekdays. There are not only charcoal in the charcoal shop, but also firewood. Many people in the city need charcoal fire and firewood for daily life. There is almost as much salt as is needed.

The business of the charcoal fire shop is mediocre, and it is not as hot as the rice and grain shop, and the clerks can take care of it. As soon as Zhang Fangyuan entered, two clerks came up to watch.

Zhang Fangyuan saw that the price was indeed not high. The good charcoal he collected from the villagers was ten yuan a catty, and if he sold it at a shop in the city, it would cost fifteen to twenty yuan.

"Can the price of China Carbon be lower, and I buy more?"

The man saw that the business was not small, and he was afraid that he would not be able to manage it, so he went to call the manager. Because it was not a piecemeal business, he was invited to the inner room to serve tea.

"If the gentleman wants more, it can be reduced appropriately, but it will have to go up a thousand catties."

Seeing that the manager spoke politely, Zhang Fangyuan didn't tease him: "That's exactly what I mean."

The two didn't make a clear statement, instead they made a few gestures, and then Zhang Fangyuan bought 10,000 catties of medium charcoal at a price of ten yuan, paid half of the silver first, and agreed to pick it up in three days.

After Zhang Fangyuan was sent out, the boss of Charcoal Bank stood with his hands behind his back on the gate, narrowing his eyes slightly.

The clerk quickly calculated the abacus, the beads touched each other, and the voice was very pleasant: "Master, this list is really big!"

"It's not small."

"It's just why does this person buy so many charcoal fires? Could it be that there is a big banquet at home, but even so, so many charcoal fires are not needed."

Not only was the clerk confused, but the old steward was also puzzled, but the left and right had made money, and he was ashamed to lose face in front of the servants, so he said: "Other people buy so much, and there is a reason for buying so much. The Chao warehouse is much empty, and people have to fill it in time. It’s mid-autumn, and although it’s not necessarily cold, many people in the city like to stock up on winter charcoal in advance, and when there are more people, the price should increase.”

The buddy nodded in agreement. The business of Nuandong Charcoal Co. was not good last year. If this is the case again this year, the business will not be easy. Now that rice is expensive, all the businesses in the city are eager to do rice business. Can't wait to change careers.

When the manager returned to the room, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If there are such big orders every day, why worry about bad business."

Zhang Fangyuan set up the charcoal fire and was not in a hurry to go back. He went to the southwestern entrance of the city first, and rented a large warehouse there at a low price. The Linglong shop is just a little bigger than a palm, not to mention the warehouse, even the entire shop. It doesn't take much to pile things up.

There are plenty of charcoal fires in the village to store, but now I bought so many charcoal fires in the city, if I want to **** them back to the village, not to mention that it will take a lot of manpower and material resources to transport them, and I have to bring them to the city in winter It is really troublesome to repeat it like this.

Instead of this, it is better to rent a large warehouse to store things directly, which will save worry and effort.

After setting up the warehouse, he went to several major charcoal fire shops in the city one after another, and bought tens of thousands of catties of charcoal fire. There are a lot of goods coming and going, and now the hottest thing is rice, so no one pays attention to his charcoal fire.

After the warehouse was full, Zhang Fangyuan returned to the village with peace of mind. Now their home is almost surrounded by villagers who came to sell charcoal fire.

In the city and in the village, Zhang Fangyuan can confidently say that there is no other charcoal fire shop that has as much charcoal as he does.

Xu He watched the money-saving box at home gradually becoming more and more empty, and turned into a pile of firewood and charcoal fire, he was like a dumb man eating coptis, unable to express his suffering. If he had known that Zhang Fangyuan could toss around so much, he wouldn't have come up with such a bad idea. This is a good time, as if he had a stroke, he hoarded charcoal with all his energy, and all the money was hit on his head.

He heard the sound of horseshoes in the yard, and hurriedly put down the money box and went out. Zhang Fangyuan, who had been on the road for half a month, came back from the city with big bags and small bags. what?"

"They are all medicinal materials, which are easy to use at home."

Xu He flipped through it, and it was undoubtedly something to strengthen the body and prevent diseases and epidemics. He was puzzled, but he thought that it was late autumn, and when the weather got colder after winter, the body would indeed not be as strong as autumn and summer, so take some tonics The body is warmer, and you can take a little herbal stewed chicken and mutton for soup for two children.

"Do you still want to go to the city to stock up on charcoal?"

Xu He asked carefully.

Zhang Fangyuan waved his hand: "I won't buy it."

Xu Hechang heaved a sigh of relief, if he bought it again, his family would be wiped out.

Then Zhang Fangyuan said again: "Tomorrow, I will tell the villagers that we will not accept charcoal fire at home."

"So suddenly?" Xu He hurriedly took the medicinal materials in his hand to the licorice and brought them into the house: "Now the villagers are still burning charcoal and chopping firewood in full swing. Explode your own hands?"

Zhang Fangyuan said: "I won't accept it anymore. I told everyone that I will store up the excess and use it by myself. Anyway, it is almost winter, and it will always be used in winter."

Xu He can think of how the villagers jumped, but their family is now a landlord, and the villagers dare not come to their house even if they want to. In the past two years, the Zhang family has made the villagers earn money, planted mulberry and raised silkworms, They are fishponds and livestock, and they are hired to plow the land, and now they are allowed to burn charcoal to do something during the slack season. Their family has a lot of prestige in the village.

Thinking of this, he felt a lot more at ease.

"Yes, I will let you know when the time comes."

As Xu He expected, when they heard that the charcoal fire would not be collected, the villagers cursed at each other, but whether they would accept it or not was their own word, and there was no way to force it. No matter how dissatisfied I am in my heart, I know that only by relying on the Zhang family, if I offend someone, and they will not hire me in the future, then the gain outweighs the gain.

For this reason, I only yelled and scolded in private, and did not dare to make irresponsible remarks in front of the master. Besides, what Zhang Fangyuan said was correct, these things are always used in winter, and I was too lazy to use them before. Or they were thinking about finding other things to do, and they couldn't do it. This year, because of the Zhang family's collection of charcoal fires, every household burned and hoarded some charcoal for their own use.

When it comes to winter, it will be easier. Getting charcoal in winter is not as easy as getting charcoal in summer and autumn. Not to mention raw and frozen hands, the wet dry wood is very heavy, and it has to be dried after carrying it, which is very troublesome. .

Everyone is a farmer, and after a little thought, they are too embarrassed to make trouble with Zhang Fangyuan. No matter what, they still made some money by burning charcoal this autumn, which can be regarded as subsidizing this autumn harvest.

"There's so much charcoal, how can we sell it?"

Zhang Shicheng and his wife and children went to Zhang Fangyuan's house for dinner. Looking at the sunny weather with no rain, he couldn't help worrying, wondering if this year would be another warm winter like last year. People in the village don't say that Zhang Fangyuan is stupid. After all, they provide everyone with an opportunity to make money, but they don't say that they are watching the fun.

In previous years, it started to rain in late autumn, and charcoal fires were used early in the city. This year alone, it was still sunny at noon at this time, and it was still very hot today. He only wore two thin clothes.

Xu He actually felt uneasy, but if his family members said such things, he was afraid that Zhang Fangyuan's burden would be even heavier, so he didn't say much about it. Instead, he persuaded his family members and even took the initiative to let the Xu family Over there, I also stocked up on some charcoal fire.

When it was almost noon, the smell of food came from the kitchen. Today at noon, I ate fresh fish caught in the fish pond in the village. I also caught an old hen in the shed and stewed it with wild ginseng to nourish my body.

Zhang Shicheng was chatting with Zhang Fangyuan in the house, the gate of the yard was opened by Huang Qi, he craned his neck to take a look, and saw that it was his elder brother Zhang Shixin.

"Your uncle has the most sensitive nose."

Zhang Shicheng laughed.

"I walked over there yesterday, and called Uncle on the way, he said that I have to go to the city to do some business today, I don't think I can come." Zhang Fangyuan stood up and greeted: "Uncle came back so early? "

Zhang Shixin hurried into the room, took a sip of tea with a tea bowl in his hand: "It's risen again!"

Zhang Fangyuan and Zhang Shicheng said in a tacit understanding: "The rice grain has risen again?"

Zhang Shixin put down his tea bowl and nodded, his eyes were full of radiance: "Fortunately, after listening to Fangyuan, he didn't sell the grain to those rice merchants long ago, or he would lose a lot of money. There is not much rice in the autumn harvest. If you don’t have enough to eat, you can buy more, and now you can only buy one catty with the money you used to buy two catties of rice.”

Thinking about it makes me smack my tongue.

Zhang Shicheng peeled the melon seeds and said, "Brother, are you going to sell some now?"

Zhang Shixin also grabbed a lot of melon seeds, stuffed some in his pocket, and no one said to him: "I won't sell it, do you know why the price of rice and grain has risen again, I got a shock in the city today Great news!"

"What's the matter?"

Zhang Shixin's expression was stern: "There is a plague at the end of Ningjiang Mansion! It's very frightening. It spreads widely, and it's a lively scene in the city. The news just came out, but we've known it for a few hours."

Zhang Shicheng couldn't help but sigh, his eyes were a little lost: "Why are there so many things in these years!"

"The magistrate of the county has sent people to strictly guard the official roads, and the borders of entering and leaving Siyang can be strictly controlled. They are interrogated one by one, and the people from the Ningjiang mansion are not allowed to come." Zhang Shixin was also cold all over: "Strictly guarded That's good, if someone runs in, Siyang will suffer too."

As he said that, he looked at Zhang Fangyuan again: "The merchants from the other side of Ningjiang Mansion are not allowed to come to do business. Fangyuan, is the silkworm harvesting merchant you know from Ningjiang Mansion? If so, I advise you to Don’t hang around the cocoons of the folks, let’s stop two crops of silkworms first, and the cocoons will not be sold by then.”

Zhang Fangyuan frowned, this is also a problem: "There is still the last crop of silkworms this year, and they are already weaving silk, even if we want to raise them, we have to wait until next spring, and the disease may be cured by then. "

"This matter can't be explained clearly in three to five months. You'd better be cautious. It's hard to get up at home, so don't fall into such a famine year."

Although Zhang Shixin likes to take advantage, but what he said is the truth. After all, there are still some patterns in him. Nowadays, Zhang Fangyuan is the most promising descendant of the Zhang family. If he collapses, he has no place to take advantage. I also hope that Zhang Fangyuan will be well.

"Success, I'll write a letter and send it out later to see if Boss Song can leave Ningjiang Mansion."

The dishes in the kitchen were ready, Xu He brought up the stewed chicken soup, and at the door of the house, he heard the conversation of several young and old men in the house.

He frowned, and he was also worried about the silkworm cocoons. If Song Yong couldn't come to Siyang due to the epidemic, then there would be no way to make money, and the silkworm cocoons he collected earlier would have to be kept in his hands. Charcoal fire, the family is really a little heavy.

He was a little confused when he heard the words of the epidemic, but he also noticed that his husband seemed to be a little unusual.

He just brought back a lot of medicinal materials a while ago, some of which were used to prevent epidemics. I don't know if it was just a coincidence or something that he thought too much. Peace of mind.

But they also feel at ease. When the people of Siyang were still panicking about the outbreak of the epidemic in Ningjiang Mansion, the temperature continued to rise for a long time like summer. After three days in a row, the temperature suddenly dropped after it seemed to peak.

A rush of cold fog and mixed autumn rain came over the sky, and the ordinary people who were still wearing single clothes yesterday were wrapped in thick cotton and linen clothes without exaggeration.

"The weather is changing so fast!"
