What a cheating husband

The Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of May is not only a festival for national celebration, but also a festival for disease prevention and epidemic prevention in summer.

In addition to eating zongzi, racing dragon boats, hanging calamus, wormwood, mugwort leaves, etc., they also drink realgar wine and give children a bath with bitter herbs and wheat.Watching dragon boat races with the whole family is even more fun for ordinary people.

The Dragon Boat Festival has a long-standing custom of dragon boat racing. Just after lunch, Brother Yang asked Zixian to take him out to watch the excitement.Because the pregnant belly is conspicuous, he is naturally excluded from the work of preparing for the festival. Brother Yang has nothing to do except sit under the eaves, eat rice dumplings and eat fruits.

Seeing that he had been bored for a long time, Song couldn't bear it, so she asked Liang Zixian to go out and protect him carefully, and asked Ziping and his wife to help watch him if he was still worried before leaving.

Liang Meng is about to get married in three months, and the dowry was brought into the door of the Liang family yesterday.A woman who is about to get married should not show her face in public, so this trip does not have Liang Meng's share, and Liang Zizhuang and his wife are also reluctant to let their daughter get married and lose the desire to travel.

Liang Zijun wanted to go, but Chen Qing had just changed his position. It was the time when his temper was irritable and irritable. After weighing the pros and cons, he could only suppress his thoughts and go back to the study obediently.

This half-moon of anxiety and half-moon of enthusiasm can be described as a double sky of ice and fire. Liang Zijun conjectured that this kind of tormented life would last three months, and his handsome face was wrinkled as ugly as a bitter melon.

Chen Qing also knew that being angry at Liang Zijun for no reason meant venting anger, but she was unwell and couldn't control her temper, so she had to avoid Liang Zijun as much as possible.Seeing him obediently memorizing his books, he went into the bedroom to embroider and embroider quietly. After embroidering two stitches, he lost his embroidery work and went out to pull weeds.

The chicks are growing very fast. Except for the first few that died, the remaining 25 now weigh half a catty.Slight heat is just around the corner, and the crops in the field are growing well. An acre of wheat has already headed, and the wind blows like a stream of water.

Chen Qing looked up at the sky, it was the season when there was less rain, fortunately there were a few heavy rains in spring and the ground was thoroughly watered, otherwise the ground would have to be irrigated in ten days and a half.

At noon, the sun was so hot that the poultry were so hot that they lay on the ground and did not like to move. Chen Qing filled the sink with cool well water and went to clean the pigsty again.He fetched water and gave the two fat pigs a shower before returning to the yard with the wooden bucket.

It really wasn't time for work at noon, Chen Qingre was sweating all over, went to the bathhouse to wash off the cold water, and then went into the warehouse to find some ingredients that could relieve the heat.

As soon as the japonica rice was soaked, Wei Liang entered the yard, and Chen Qing pointed his head to indicate that Liang Zijun was in the study and asked him to find it by himself.After a while, they saw the two coming out one after the other. Liang Zijun, dressed in going out clothes, couldn't hide his joy and said, "I'm going to the county, and I won't come back to eat at night."

Chen Qing rolled her eyes, knowing that he was holding back, she didn't bother to hold him back and nodded to let him go.

Liang Zijun secretly raised his eyebrows at Wei Liang, strode out of the yard, patted the young servant who came to look for him, and praised, "Good job! At least that kid didn't forget the master!"

"What did the third master say? Didn't our master Liao understand you so he didn't dare to come and disturb you~" The young man glanced at the inner courtyard pointingly, and got Liang Sanye's sigh, "It's okay if you don't mention it..."

The boy didn't know why, but he was happy to accept the reward and thanked him.

Liang Zijun took the reins from Wei Liang, flipped over and jumped onto the horse's back lightly, patted the old man's neck to comfort him, "Have you got bored? Let's go, I'll take you for a walk~" Kicked the horse's belly lightly, before shouting At the last sound of "driving", the horse spread its hooves and rushed forward.

The servant covered his nose and fanned away the dust kicked up by the horse's hooves, and in a blink of an eye they ran away without a trace. Bar"

Wei Liang nodded approvingly. If he can keep the third master from going to the county for a month, I'm afraid no one can do it except the young mistress.Reaffirming the position of the third young mistress in the Liang family, Wei Liang turned around and closed the courtyard door.

Liang Zijun rode his horse and rushed to the north city gate, got off his horse and handed the horse to the waiter to settle down without going to the other courtyard.Teng Teng went up to the second floor, opened the door, clapped his hands and smiled, and then complained, "You two are too mean, it took me so long to think of sending someone to find me!"

Liao Fanzhi and Li Shoucai looked at each other, and hurt him with a smile on their faces, "Isn't it because they didn't dare to disturb the third master's reunion because they were afraid of disturbing him?"

"If I knew you couldn't stand being lonely, we would have sent someone to the door sooner." Li Shoucai wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook his head and said with a smile.

"Haha, I knew you guys wouldn't be happy drinking without me." Liang Zijun lifted his hem and strode forward to sit on the chair, picked up the wine pot and poured himself a drink. just different”

"Come on, I'm afraid it's because you're happy at home and don't think about Sichuan. If it's not for business, brother Li and I wouldn't dare to interfere with your good business." Liao Fanzhi curled his lips and muttered.

"Even if this family is good in every way, it can't cool brother's heart, right?" Liang Zijun happily drank another cup and laughed.

"Pull it down, let's get down to business." Li Shoucai handed over a letter, narrowing his eyes and calculating.

Liao Fanzhi leaned over and said in a low voice, "You guys have found a good source of money, are you interested in stepping in?"

Liang Zijun raised his eyebrows, shook the letter paper and looked at it twice before he took the torch handed by Li Shoucai and lit it, and nodded with a smile after it was burnt to ashes.

Liang Zijun was worrying that he had no money to spend, and the money Chen Qing allocated to him every month was not enough to fit his teeth. If he got a new source of income, the money that Qiu Ri Dabi would need to spend would be enough.

"Brother, it's not easy to find a way to make money. If you become one person, at least you will get this amount." Liao Fanzhi slapped secretly with a sly look on his face.

As soon as Liang Zijun grasped that hand, he said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't treat you badly, besides, you can get this amount just to test the waters. In the future, if you make two more trips, our brother's drink money will be endless."

Liao Fanzhi lay on Liang Zijun's shoulder to tease him, "What's the matter? Money is tight recently? I've never seen you so caring before."

Liang Zijun pushed his head away, coughed secretly, and made a serious excuse, "Who would think too much money?"

Li Shoucai lightly tapped the table, slowly rubbed the ink and picked up the pen, the three of them lay together and secretly calculated that this business will make money if it goes well, but if it goes wrong it will cost you your head!For the sake of caution, try to use a pen instead of a mouth, in case the wall has ears.

The new way of making money that Liao Fanzhi obtained was the pretext of purchasing new ingredients from Wanle Zhai in Beijing, importing seafood from Zhou State, and then carrying pearls from them and hiding them in shells and transporting them back.

Xia Kingdom is located inland, with many rivers and lakes, rich in water resources, but it is far away from the sea, unlike Zhou Kingdom which is a coastal country, rich in seafood.Most of Xia's official salt comes from well salt, alkali salt, and cliff salt. If you want to sell sea salt, you need to buy it from Zhou State.

Sea salt is decocted from sea brine, well salt is decocted from well brine, alkali salt is decocted from scraped alkaline soil, pool salt is from pool brine and dried, and cliff salt is grown between soil and cliffs.Sea salt, well salt, and alkali salt come from man, while pond salt and cliff salt come from heaven.

In terms of color, there are: crimson snow, peach blossom, blue, purple, white and so on.

Therefore, the seafood eaten in the capital is all from the Zhou Kingdom. The two countries have traded for a long time, but the border inspections are very strict, and the tax can take away nearly [-]% of the profits. In addition to opening up relationships, losses and layers of exploitation , the remaining profit is negligible.If there is no way, very few merchants are willing to import seafood for sale. Moreover, once they are found to be hidden, they will be issued corvée at least, and their heads will be beheaded if they are found.

Liang Zijun is not worried that the network is not strong enough, and most of the seafood is dry goods, which are convenient for transportation, such as dried shrimps, shrimp skins, sea vegetables, etc. Due to the inconvenience of transportation for fresh fish and shellfish, most of them die on the road. No matter how high the selling price is, it is difficult to make up for the loss.

Therefore, the shellfish purchased this time is just a cover, and the real valuables are the pearls hidden inside.Whether pearls are ground or made into jewelry, they are very popular among the female family members of rich officials and officials, and their value is even more worth one or two thousand gold (one gold is equal to 20 taels, and one thousand gold is equal to 2 taels of silver).

Nowadays, trade is frequent, and pearls are not as rare as in the previous dynasty. Although one tael is not worth a thousand gold, it can be exchanged for hundreds of taels of silver.Moreover, pearl entrainment is convenient, as long as all joints are opened, it is extremely difficult to find without careful inspection.

After discussing the specific matters, Liao Fanzhi pointed at the table and said in distress, "It's just that the customs clearance document is not easy to handle. If it is handled through the yamen, I'm afraid I will have to deduct another [-]% of the profit."

Liang Zijun squinted at him, and jokingly said with the corners of his mouth, "Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a time, why should I be there for so long, why don't I just use him for this time?"

Liao Fanzhi didn't pretend to be entangled, and nudged him with his elbow, "I've inquired about it a long time ago. Hezhi County's hometown is in Linfan (Linfan County). Please ask him to take care of it. I'm afraid you don't need to check it if you pass the customs."

Liang Zijun raised his eyebrows and thought about it, then shook his head in denial.If Hezhi County is invited to make a move, I'm afraid it will cost 8000 taels. "I think it's better to start with Hebiting. It's inconvenient for us to come forward and let your shopkeepers negotiate. At most, we can share [-]% of the profits with him."

Li Shoucai smiled and nodded in agreement, "It's very good. The maximum profit on the surface is 3000 taels, and [-]% is not much. It's still lower than the threshold for us to smash the county magistrate. This deal is worthwhile."

Liao Fanzhi tapped the table, and asked with a wicked smile, "Are you hooking up?"

Liang Zijun slapped him hard, "Get out! Dig a hole early and wait for me to jump! I want to take half of the profits."

Li Shoucai shook his head and laughed, "Sure, just do what Brother Liang said, I don't mind working too hard."

After the matter was settled, Li Shoucai hosted a banquet for the three of them that night. Liang Zijun at the banquet smiled but said nothing, and only waited for Li Shoucai to bring up the topic before interjecting to introduce He Biting into the urn.

He Biting bowed his hands with joy on his face, "I, He, have the honor to meet Brother Liang and the two brothers. It is a great blessing in life. I will return when I earn money, please everyone."

Liang Zijun waved his hand, and responded generously, "Why do my brothers say such nonsense? If there is a way to make money, everyone can make money together, but brother Shoucai wants to give up part of the profits to us."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I can't lose much. I was originally doing business with that trading firm. Counting the brothers, I don't suffer any losses. The business is also considered a good fortune. With three brothers funding, I think this order can make a lot of money. A deal." Li Shoucai waved his hands generously with a shy belly.

After a while, the staff invited the principals of the travel firm, and first bowed and met with several owners, and then informed them of the itinerary one by one.

In addition to purchasing their own goods, the firm will also cooperate with other merchants in need when they go out. Taking an extra order is just a matter of hiring an extra carriage, and they will not push the sale outside.

Knowing that four orders have been taken this time, the principal is full of smiles, and promises again and again, to ensure that nothing goes wrong, even the number of bodyguards has doubled. Only with sufficient manpower can the goods be guaranteed. If there are not four people who pay in advance, the firm will I also dare not spend a lot of money to buy seafood.

Once the sea goods arrived in the capital, they would have no worries about sales, and with Li Shoucai as the guarantee, He Biting was confident in the transaction, and boasted that he would be responsible for the customs clearance documents and did not need a few brothers to spend money.

Everyone was very happy with the banquet, and the four of them returned happily without mentioning it.
