Chapter 753 If you want to get rich, build roads first!
"Is it true? The sausages in Youzhou are really selling well?"

In a county town in the north, a county magistrate from an aristocratic family couldn't help asking after hearing the rumors.

The master replied: "Master, it is absolutely true, Youzhou sausage is selling very well now! I heard that this time not only Chang'an likes this food, but even many places in the south can't stop it this time. It was ordered not to order the food in Youzhou, and some people smuggled it in privately, and the price was even doubled or tripled, but some people still bought it!"

When the master said this, he was also very embarrassed.

After all, this matter has nothing to do with them.

His master is a concubine from a small family in the south, because the master has no shortage of sons at all, there are several legitimate sons, and there are more than a dozen concubines listed in the genealogy!

If we include the concubines who are listed in the family tree, and the concubines and concubines who are not listed in the family tree, there will be almost 50 brothers and sisters of my master!
The relationship between each other is very ordinary. After all, except for the few sons-in-law, most of the other people did not crawl out of the stomach of a mother.

Their family is just a third-rate family. When the old patriarch dies in the future and all the sons are separated, the legitimate sons will be able to get more property and get some connections.

It would be good for a bastard who is not valued as much as his own master to find an official position before this.

After all, there are as many aristocratic families in the world as cows' wool. If there are really good positions, they are usually selected by people from first-rate and second-rate families. When it is the turn of third-rate families, there are not many left.

And this one of the few opportunities has to be competed with many people.

That is, their master, when he was young, was bullied because his mother passed away early, but as he got older, his master has made great progress in human relations, and because he was lucky enough to marry a third-rate family concubine who can live a good life Girl, so life gets better and better.

This opportunity was obtained by the master and his wife with great efforts a few years ago. The county they came to was also in the north, which was considered by many aristocratic families to be a cold and remote area close to the mountains.

The master tried his best to make some achievements, but after three years of hard work, he only achieved the goal of no one starving to death in the territory with the help of sweet potatoes and potatoes.

However, since half a year ago, the master began to pay attention to one thing, that is, whether the development model in Youzhou can be used for reference in his county.

Although their place is poor in other aspects, it is next to a mountain with many fruits. The fruits are hard to name, but they taste very delicious.

It's just that this thing is everywhere in their place, and it's unrealistic to transport it out.Because once the fruit is picked, it will only last for a few days, and if it takes longer, it will rot.

But it takes at least half a day to pick them from the mountains and transport them outside the mountains.

If it is transported from outside the mountain to other places, no matter how close it is, it will always take more than half a day.

At least one day has passed in this kind of time.

The people nearby are also poor, how can they spend a lot of money to buy this kind of fruit that can be found in the mountains?

But if it is transported to a distant place to sell, it will all rot on the way.

The only way is to imitate Youzhou and make candied fruit or canned fruit.

If it is made into preserved fruit, it is a bit too easy to see, and it may not be able to open up the market. The preserved fruit is everywhere, so it is not a new thing.

There are only canned fruits, no, not only canned fruits, but all canned foods, which are unique to Youzhou!

As long as this fruit can be made into canned fruit, wouldn't there be a market?

This county magistrate not only wanted to establish a relationship with Youzhou, but he was also worried that if he did so, he would attract criticism from the aristocratic family.

After all, in terms of family background, he was a son of a noble family, although he was a concubine who was not taken seriously.

So, after hearing that the food sausage appeared, he began to attract people's attention.

He had asked people to buy sausages, and after he ate them, he was convinced that this food would definitely be popular in his hometown!
This is no lie, this thing must be a favorite food in his hometown.

As long as Youzhou sausage can really open up the market in the south, and if you can't resist the temptation of delicious food, there will inevitably be people from the southern aristocratic family who will reach a tacit cooperation with Youzhou for profit.

Although King Youzhou has not dealt with the family once or twice, as long as there are interests involved, enough interests, it is not impossible for people to eat the same kind, let alone temporarily cooperate with former enemies?
"It seems that it's not far from the people over there. Send me a letter of greeting to Youzhou! Don't even think about seeing the king of Youzhou, just... pass it to the governor Zhang Zhang Your Excellency."

The county magistrate thought for a while and said.

He has been an official for three years, and he has heard a little bit about Mr. Zhang. He knows that he is a governor with a good temper. As long as he goes to see him with good intentions, there is a certain chance that the other party will be willing to see him.

Even if you really don't want to see him this time, if you send them a few more times, you should be able to achieve your goal.

The master heard this, sighed, and said: "Yes, but, sorry for the bluntness, it may not be feasible for you to let people from Youzhou come to our factory to set up a factory. After all, the road here is too difficult to travel. Youzhou chooses to build factories in other places. Basically, the first choice is to see if the roads are unblocked. Other aspects have an advantage, otherwise, you will definitely not choose a place with poor roads as the choice for establishing a branch factory. Master, if you really want Youzhou to build a factory here, why not take advantage of the warm weather now , Repair the road!"

The road construction he mentioned did not refer to the official road leading to the outside world from the county seat, but to the mountain road.

After all, the reason why his master wants to invest and build a factory in Layouzhou is because they are next to a big mountain with endless fruit trees.

Moreover, it is a fruit tree that ripens twice a year. If a cannery is established here, it will be of great help to the local economy!
But if roads are not built, it is not easy to enter the mountain from the outside, and it is not easy to transport things out of the mountain.

Youzhou Fang is not stupid, so why choose them to build a factory here?
Just because they have mountains and fruits here?But there are many places with the same conditions, right?
Could it be because his master is from a family?But nowadays, how many officials can completely separate themselves from the aristocratic family?This so-called background is not an advantage at all!
