Hufu ancient struggle plan

Although Lu Yang wanted to help Zhang Tianba for Tian Tian's sake, he had to think about it carefully and plan to find an opportunity. He couldn't just go up with the treasures and say that I found a few treasures. Let's make a fortune together. That's true. Stupid.

So in the next few days, Lu Yang didn't take any action for the time being, but continued to be busy with his work as a shopkeeper, because no matter how much money he had, he couldn't just sit and eat.

He rented a mule from the Lian family, so he had to prepare a cart. This thing couldn't be bought, so he had to find a carpenter to order. There is a carpenter in Zhangjia Village, so he didn't have to go out to find it.

Tian Tian asked Tian Tian to make silk flowers for Lian’s family when they got married. These red cloths are good things. The brighter the color, the more expensive the fabric is. Girls in the village like brightly colored silk flowers, especially is red.

Anyway, silk flowers are only made of cloth ends, and these strips of cloth are a waste if they are stored now, and they are new after being used once, which is just a good way to recycle waste.

Hearing so much modern knowledge from Lu Yang, Tian Tian's head is very smart now, at least he won't be as pedantic as most other ancient people.

Seeing Tian Tian sending the cloth head to Lian's family to make silk flowers, Lu Yang thought that since coming here, the silk flowers on the girls' heads he had seen were very simple, all in the shape of flowers.

Referring to the headgear in the costume dramas that I have seen a lot in TV dramas, I selected a few styles that are more suitable for the aesthetic vision of the villagers, drew a few pictures and sent them to them together.

After finishing these, Lu Yang began to prepare to go to the countryside to sell things at that time.

What this ancient shopkeeper sells is nothing more than various daily necessities, such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, cloth, needlework, rouge and gouache, round fans, silk flower handkerchiefs, and women's accessories.

Shopkeepers can sell all kinds of things that can be bought in grocery stores, because shopkeepers generally have no capital, so they can only sell things in a wandering way instead of opening a shop, just like modern small traders.

Lu Yang can get these goods directly in the town. He doesn't even have to worry about the source of the most expensive candies that are the most troublesome for the salesmen. The salesmen in the town have to go to a special place to buy the goods at a high cost. He only needs to do it at home. On the line, the cost is very low but the profit is high.

As soon as Zhang Tianba left, Tian Tian lived in the next room. They were married in a fake way, so naturally they couldn't really live together. Although Lu Yang didn't mind too much, he had to respect the customs of this place.

But seeing Tian Tian living next door, Lu Yang was still a little disappointed. They didn't sleep in the same bed in the abandoned straw house before, but they slept in the same room, and they could chat every night.

But now he lives in the same yard but in different houses, and he still chats with each other through such a thick wall, so he feels a little empty in his heart, and feels very uncomfortable...

But no matter how empty Lu Yang felt, Tian Tian still lived next door, and the cart was finished after a delay of more than a week, and they could start to leave the countryside when they got the goods ready.

The goods had been contacted beforehand, and as soon as the cart was ready, the two of them drove their mules to the town to haul the goods. Zhang Tianba was in the town, and when he knew they were coming to the town, he brought a few brothers over to help.

After loading the goods, Zhang Tianba was a little worried and planned to go back together. A few women happened to come across. Lu Yang looked familiar. They were the wife of the village chief, Old Man Chen, and several other aunts in the village.

Several people were carrying big baskets on their backs, and it seemed that they also came to the town to sell things. After a tiring day, seeing Lu Yang and the others leading a mule cart, they naturally wanted to come up for a ride.

They are all from the village, people in the village don't look up and look down, if there is any doubt about something, they ask them to come to them, Lu Yang and Tian Tian didn't refuse, and asked them to sit up.

"Oh, thank you so much Mr. Lu, yo, the Zhang family boy is here today..."

As soon as they got in the car, there was an aunt who greeted her with a smile. She must not keep a straight face after riding in someone else's car. Besides, she thought Lu Yang was poor, but since he rented the mule from the Lian family, no one in the village dared to say that he was poor.

Even if Lu Yang has no fields and no land now, and even the house belongs to his husband's natal cousin, who knows that the village can't keep a secret, and the news that he always rents Lian's mule every month spreads out at that time.

How much is the usual money?One tael of silver = 1500 wen = one and a half taels of silver, which is nearly one tael of silver. Who in the village can earn a consistent amount of silver in a month without a field?

Which man has the courage of the new Mr. Lu?If people don't have any family background, dare to spend money like this?So in the final analysis, this Mr. Lu's family is worthy!

This well-to-do family naturally wants to establish a good relationship. If there is a problem in the family, if they come to ask for help in the future, there may be multiple ways.

Everyone was chatting and talking, and some auntie sighed, "I'm so lucky today. You have a scooter when you meet Mr. Lu, otherwise it would be really tiring to walk back to the village..."

"Who says it's not? Although our village is close to the town, it takes an hour to walk. I'm exhausted. The village where my sister married is far away from the town. It takes two hours to walk each time. I have bad feet, but it's really hard..."

The person who answered the conversation was a fat black woman. Seeing her body shape, she was indeed more tired than normal people when exercising, but although she was fat, she looked very kind, she continued while drinking water.

"Our countryside is not as good and convenient as the big cities. In the past two years, even the shopkeepers are reluctant to go to the village. They feel tired and do not make money. Everyone has to come to the town to buy some good things... ..."

"It's okay if it's close, but it's hard if it's far away. I heard that every time people in Shancha Village buy something, they register with the village head of the village, and then the village head brings a few people to the town to buy. People from Shancha Village They are richer than our village, but they end up living worse than our village..."

This is the trouble of inconvenient transportation. Production in ancient times was backward, and in addition to inconvenient transportation, some places could not live a good life even if they had money.

The black and fat woman said that Shancha Village is a relatively wealthy village, but because it is far away from the town, it is very inconvenient for the villagers to travel. If you want to come to the town, you have to walk for at least a day, and it is very difficult to buy daily necessities.

Although the Nanming Kingdom does not favor merchants, merchants have a low status in agriculture, industry and commerce since ancient times, and being a peddler is not a very noble profession, so there are relatively fewer peddlers who are willing to endure hardships and go to the countryside.

In the past two years, the newly appointed county magistrate of Shangyu County has managed well, and the Dongjin Town under its jurisdiction has also become more prosperous. There are many opportunities to make money in the town, and the shopkeepers are even more unwilling to be burdened and wander around. The money they make in a day in the countryside is not as good as them Wander around the town for half a day.

According to the fat black woman, although Shancha Village is rich, not everyone can afford mules and donkeys, and only a few families can own livestock. It would be good if they had livestock, at least it would shorten the general journey time.

In fact, not only Shancha Village, but also villages far away from the town. There is no way, the traffic is inconvenient. There is a saying that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, which shows the importance of transportation hubs.

But it is clear that most people nowadays do not have this concept. Even if they do, with the current financial resources of Nanming Kingdom, it is only convenient for those prosperous big cities, and it is impossible to build roads to every village like modern times.

A village with inconvenient travel like Shancha Village is a huge business opportunity, which is why Lu Yang chose to do the business of this wandering peddler.

Speaking of Shancha Village, an old woman next to her immediately said, "Oh, Wang's family, you said that Shancha Village reminded me of something. Yesterday, I heard that a treasure was dug up in Shancha Village and made a lot of money..."

"What baby?" Everyone became curious when they heard it.

"Big treasure! I heard that the family sold it for hundreds of taels of silver, but the origin of this treasure is not very good. I heard that it was dug out from someone's tomb..."

"Ah, digging people's graves? Isn't that too destructive, and the village chief doesn't care about it?"

"Why? When I found out, all the family members ran away with their belongings. There are many brave people nearby who have been running up the mountain to look for some treasures. Not to mention, a few of them have also dug things. It's..."

As soon as they heard that they were digging graves, a few aunts started chirping. This kind of thing would be poked in the back, but thinking about it, they sold it for hundreds of taels. If it was them, they might have done it, of course. , No one said this kind of thought out of their mouths.

Lu Yang sat beside him without saying a word. He stared at Zhang Tianba's eyes that seemed to move, and turned around in his heart. He suddenly noticed...

It was almost evening when we returned to the village, many people started cooking, and the smoke rose from the chimney, Lu Yang pushed Tian Tian away, and dragged Zhang Tianba to a corner.

"Brother Lu, why are you being so sneaky..."

Facing Zhang Tianba's suspicious gaze, Lu Yang pretended to be cautious and asked, "Brother Zhang, do you want to get rich?"

At the end of the sentence, Zhang Tianba, who originally thought he had something great to say, lost interest immediately in his heart, "Think about it! Who doesn't want to get rich..."

He dreamed of getting rich, and with the money, he could redeem Brother Lian, and he could marry Brother Lian and go home, but getting rich is not so easy.

Seeing Zhang Tianba's expression, Lu Yang smiled inwardly, and continued, "Brother Zhang, you heard what my aunt said in the car today..."

"Lu...Brother Lu, you mean...let's go...isn't that good?"

Zhang Tianba reacted and swallowed his saliva. He is not a fool. Lu Yang's words are too obvious. What's more, when he heard the words of the aunt in the car, he had the idea of ​​treasure hunting for a moment, but after all, he was digging things from other people's graves. , detrimental to yin and virtue, things are not clean.

If he really went to dig a grave, Lu Yang would be a bit taboo, but not now, he is digging his own treasure, seeing Zhang Tianba's hesitant face, Lu Yang persuaded.

"Brother Zhang, let me tell you the truth. I spent all my money on this peddler business. I don't know if this business can be successful. I can only give it a try. It's good if you succeed, but Tian Tian will suffer if you fail..."

"The matter in Shancha Village this time is an opportunity. Let's try it too. Anyway, it doesn't cost money. It's a matter of luck. Maybe we'll be lucky enough to dig it up. This is a waste of a few days... ..."

"But those things are not clean, if you mess with something..." Zhang Tianba is a bandit, but he is a human, or an ancient man, and he has a deep respect for ghosts and gods.

"But what? Brother Zhang, let me tell you, I've decided to do this. I don't want my Tian Tian to suffer with me in the future. Brother, if you don’t go, I’ll go alone!”

"Besides, it's worth going up the mountain of knives and down the sea of ​​fire for the sake of the person in your heart. Cousin Tianba, do you think it makes sense..."

Lu Yang stared at Zhang Tianba with a bold expression. That day, seeing Zhang Tianba's expression of daring to do anything for his brother, he couldn't believe that this tough and tender man could refuse!

Sure enough, upon hearing Lu Yang's words, and thinking of his daughter-in-law who was still in the fire pit waiting for him to save, Zhang Tianba's heart swelled, and he went all out.

"Okay! I'll go too!"
