A new journey of accumulating wealth

Sometimes, there is really no need for too much information, as long as there is a direction.

Knowing that many secret things are passed by the hands of money, then this is the direction.

When Jin Yiqian saw Jin Kuang, he must have something important to report.There are so few things at home, Jin Kuang is not even interested in asking.Then it must have been sent in from outside.But no matter what kind of news is sent in, it is always to send news.There must be a channel to send news, as long as you know the news channel of Jin Yiqian.

This information channel depends on who he contacts at home, or who he contacts outside, or where he goes.

His butler is the old lady's butler, and he doesn't live outside.There is a wife who also serves the old lady in the back kitchen of the old lady. She is very responsible.Anyway, for so long, Lin Yutong didn't hear any gossip about this woman.There are only these people in the house, Lin Yutong and the housekeeper of the fourth master. They are very clear about who comes in and out of this house.Including the surrounding hunters, the two of them checked one by one, and basically they can be ruled out.

Is there such a possibility for the students in this academy?

have!The possibility is still very high.

It's not very convenient for Lin Yutong to check the school's affairs, and she doesn't usually have the opportunity to contact these students, but Fourth Master and Brother Shen are very convenient.

So, the soldiers divided into two groups, the fourth master screened the academy, while Lin Yutong and brother Kun turned their eyes to the outside.

Just outside... Does Jin Yiqian go out often? Whenever he goes out, where does he go?

The two of them didn't hide it from their children like Jin Kuang.On the contrary, except for Brother Qi who was young and was in front of Jin Kuang, and dared not let him know, the other big ones, such as Jin Yi, Jin Shuangjin Umbrella and Brother Kun, Ershen, all called them together. Speak clearly.They didn't say the reason for marking people, but the expressions of the two were solemn and serious, obviously this is not a small matter.

Jin San frowned: "...Mom, I have the most chances to go to the main courtyard. Usually, the second sister cooks delicious food, and mother always asks me to send it to the main courtyard... out of ten times, there are always seven or eight times that I can meet the old lady. housekeeper……"

In private, everyone called Jin Yiqian the old housekeeper.It's not that Jin Yiqian is old, but here, Jin Yiqian is older than Jin Shou's family.

Lin Yutong nodded and asked her to continue talking.

Jin San had an expression of reminiscence on his face: "...the old butler... Occasionally, he smelled of alcohol... I even whispered to my second sister when I came back, saying that the old butler just has face, where is the daylight?" Those who just drink, what should I do if I have an errand? The second sister also said that it is the face of the old housekeeper..." As she spoke, she looked at Jin Shuang.

Jin Shuang nodded, indicating that there was such a thing.

The servants are not saying that you can't drink, at least you have to wait until night, before going to bed, it's okay, it's not a problem to drink two sips alone.

Jin Shuang also said: "It's not that our house is cold, we have to drink some wine to keep out the cold. If we live here all year round and the winter is so long, how can we rely on wine every day?"

The implication is that he didn't see Yuanmen, so there is no need to smell of alcohol every now and then.

Jin Yi also added: "I have also smelled that kind of wine, it is the wine in the small tavern in the town... I used to hunt in the mountains, and I went down the mountains in winter. In order to keep out the cold, I also took a set Rabbit or something goes to the tavern to change some wine and wear it on the body. If you can’t bear it, you can take a sip. Their wine is also strong... It is said to be a burning knife, but it is stronger than other burning knives... Ordinary small restaurants There is also wine in the bag. The wine is either watered or brewed a lot. I can't taste it. But if the business is good, I have to count the tavern next to the gambling house. It is called a tavern without a name... ...The smell on the old housekeeper must belong to their family..."

But no matter how good a burning knife is, if you don't use it to drive away the cold, it won't be so delicious.The Jin family is short of everything, except for wine.Now the house is used to entertain guests, the old lady asked people to brew it themselves.It is guarded in the cave in the back mountain and stored in the big urn.The old lady asked someone to brew, so who will do it?It has to be gold.

If you really love to drink, the old lady will be stingy with her butler.You just drink liquor every day, half a catty a day, which is one urn... How much can you drink?

Therefore, there are two places that must be paid attention to, that is, taverns and casinos.

In the gambling house, fish and dragons are mixed together, and everyone goes there.What are the preferences of these people?When these preferences are ranked, wine must be ranked first.Not only important, but necessary when it's cold.

Jin San's eyes sparkled: "Mother, the old housekeeper will come out of Zhuangzi again, I will follow..."

Lin Yutong was stunned: "You follow?"

"Yeah!" Jin Shan smiled, "Jinwu Jinliu doesn't like Mrs. Murakami's craftsmanship, so she wants to make spring clothes for us... for a while, she said that the embroidery thread is not good, and in a while, she said that the color is not right. ... Besides, on this kind of day, wild vegetables grow in places facing the sun... Didn't you say before that if anyone can't eat it, we will collect it... Dried vegetables are eaten in winter... I was thinking If it doesn’t work, set up a stall in the town... and collect it for ten and a half months..."

At this time, the taste of wild vegetables is the best, blanched and dried in the shade, without any bitterness.It is also a dish to eat occasionally in winter.There are many people in the family, and winter takes up half a year. If you don’t order food for storage, you can only rely on sauerkraut, pickled vegetables, radish and cabbage, soybeans and mung beans, and bean sprouts and tofu for one winter meal.

The other day, Jin Shuang, a mother-in-law, brought back some wild vegetables. In the end, everyone in the whole family was satisfied with the food.

There are also good reasons.

But Lin Yutong also reminded: "You are not allowed to follow him casually, just see if he has gone, and how long he has been there...I don't want to do anything else..."

Jinsan responded repeatedly, his face brightened.It seems that this has found its own value.

Jin Qikun was not at ease at first, but seeing her expression, he didn't say anything, but turned his face to look at Jin Yi.Jin Yi nodded, indicating that secretly he would arrange it.

That's it.

Jin San was still very smart, she went to the town by herself without waiting for the old housekeeper to go out.There are only so many shopfronts in the town, and people who are familiar with each other are anxious in their hearts.

Going out from the village, the two miles leading to the end is the town.Directly opposite this road is the tavern.The tavern has no signboard, only a wine streamer hanging on the tree at the entrance, with the word "tavern" written on it.

One side of the tavern, that is, the shop on the far side, is a gambling house.This gambling shop... Jin Umbrella went in when he was a child.In front of it is the lobby, where anyone can gamble.But there are still two rows of houses behind. If you want to bet alone, you can go to the back.Further behind is the place where the casino people live and the back kitchen.The back kitchen also makes some rough food and drink, boils some hot water, and lets these gamblers enjoy it.Water is free, but also the most wasteful.Therefore, the gambling house is the one that consumes the most firewood in the entire town.Jinsan was two years earlier, when he was still young, he dressed up like a boy, carried firewood in his throat and sold it.The price is also fair.Therefore, if she had no other occupation, she would go there.In this way, I can exchange some copper coins for buying food, and I will not die of hunger anyway.

Therefore, as soon as I stand here, I feel very familiar.

There is a back door at the back of the casino, and people usually buy things through the back door.

On the other side of the tavern is a restaurant.The appearance of this restaurant is similar to that of the casino, and the business is relatively good.If you want stir-fried vegetables and noodles, if you want buns and steamed buns, they can also be served here.If you want to treat guests to dinner, please invite them in the private room behind you.We can also bring it out.The town is not big, and the population is small, so there is no classification, and money can be earned in any category.

When Jin Shan was passing by, she was most greedy for the meat buns here, the big buns worth two cents a piece, in her eyes, that was the most extravagant thing.Now, she had money in her pocket, took out three Wen coins and walked in: "I want a meat bun, a mushroom sauce bun, and a bowl of noodle soup..."

Noodle soup is free.

The shopkeeper is an old man, and after collecting the money, he ordered someone to serve the food.In addition to two buns, I also served a bowl of soup that was not noodle soup.

Kumbu Carrot Soup!

There are not many kombu sellers here, and occasionally people who come from Haiyanzi sell them, but they live in Zhuangzi, so it is very common.Never thought of this.

She chatted with the old man: "Old shopkeeper, do you know where this kombu is sold?"

The old shopkeeper had a kind face: "Oh! You can only buy this when you meet... My grandfather bought a few bundles of rice for stewing soup before winter last year... There are not many left now. If the girl wants It’s okay to sell you half a catty at the original price. Don’t be too disgusted, this thing will go out as soon as it’s soaked. How many meals can you eat for a catty and a half catty. It’s spring, Haiyanzi over there It's time for the seller to come... I'll buy some and keep it for the girl..."

"I want a lot here. One car, two cars, three cars and five cars are not guaranteed." The main reason is that many students in the academy are eating at home.Nowadays, most of the women in the village help out in the back kitchen, relying on washing and mending, and they also subsidize their household a lot.It's spring, followed by the time when the golden yellow is not harvested, and the vegetables must be replenished.Now there are not many radishes in winter storage.

When the shopkeeper heard it, he understood a little bit.For a while now, with such a big fortune, Zhuangzi is the only one in that household.He smiled more kindly: "Oh! Is it a girl from the Jin family?"

"Girl! Girl!" Where is the girl?Can't take big ones!Jin San didn't enjoy eating the greasy steamed stuffed buns. He used to find it delicious, but now he really finds it hard to swallow.

Yatou is also a different kind of girl. When she meets her, she dares to call the shots and say she wants to buy so many things.No matter how cheap that thing is, a car is worth a few taels of silver.For the three or five carts, ten taels of silver is enough to spend, so he hurriedly agreed, "When the seller comes later, I'll just call him to the house."

That feeling is good, Jin Shan took out another bag of money, "I want to borrow your place to collect wild vegetables for a few days."

That doesn't cost money, "You can use the place as you like... Tomorrow's market, I will help you yell twice, if you want good food, I will collect it first, and the money can be paid later... My shop is here, everyone It is from the folks in the village, and everyone can trust it!"

The shopkeeper is also very enthusiastic.

Jin Umbrella guessed that the reputation of the Jin family had played a role. After having dinner, after finalizing the matter, he went out from here and went to the tavern.It's spring now, but the wind in spring is strong and whistling.There are also thick door curtains hanging outside the shop!

She opened the curtain and went in, and there was still a charcoal basin burning inside.

At this time, there were only two people in the tavern, one was wiping the table with a rag.There are two long tables inside, which are prepared for customers drinking in the store.Facing the door was the counter, behind the counter stood a middle-aged man, behind him were several pots of side dishes, with a large urn next to it containing wine.Only sell such a wine.

As soon as people came in, the younger brother greeted first, "What do you want, girl?"

Jin San took a look at the two of them before looking at the wine urn, "Is it really strong? It's used for medicine... It's not strong..."

The second brother quickly laughed and said: "If our wine is not strong, you can look for it all over the street, as long as you can find it, I will drink all the wine..."

"Then give me a catty to try first... If it's good, I'll come here often..." Jin San washed his nose vigorously, and then covered his mouth and nose: "It smells so strong, it makes me drunk. "

The second brother laughed: "Spirited wine! People who don't drink can get drunk when they smell it. But I really didn't know that my family's wine can be used as medicine..."

"Injuries from bruises, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, wine is better than medicine." Jin Shan said.

The shopkeeper took a look at the golden umbrella, and then quoted the price, "Eighty Wen!"

Eighty words!

so expensive!

Carrying this catty of wine, I felt distressed for a long time when I went back.While giving it to Jiu'er, he said: "Don't worry, this thing is more expensive than meat."

Lin Yutong laughed, the price of wine is never cheap.She and fourth master talked about the alcohol thing at night, no matter how good you are, how do you calculate the cost?

Li Bai said: A golden bottle of sake is worth ten thousand dollars, and a jade plate is worth ten thousand dollars for delicacies.

Wang Wei said: Xinfeng wine fights for ten thousand years, how many years are Xianyang rangers.

Cui Guofu said: "To buy a bucket of wine, just use ten thousand dollars."

Bai Juyi said: "A total of [-] yuan is sold for a bucket, and it looks like seventy years less than three years."

Lu Guimeng said: "If you want to serve the emperor to drink, you can buy a bucket for ten thousand."

……

These people get ten thousand dollars for a bucket of wine.Use a small bucket to measure wine, about two kilograms per bucket.One tael of silver is one thousand taels, and the ten taels of silver is ten thousand taels.

In other words, the wine these people drank cost about two or five renminbi per catty.

The conversion of one tael into RMB is about two hundred and five, so a catty of wine will cost roughly six or seven hundred.A bottle of Wuliangye is only at this price. How can ordinary people drink such expensive wine?

It can be seen that the life of poets like Li Bai is quite petty.

Of course, if you want to make things like alcohol, Li Bai cannot be used as a standard.

The fourth master said: "Take Du Fu as the standard? Du Fu said, 'The price of wine on the street is very bitter and expensive, and people outside the house are rarely drunk and sleepy. Su Yixiang just drinks a bucket, which is exactly three hundred bronze coins.' You can count this again, As a proletarian, he is very close to the people, and he costs 19 yuan a catty..."

This is again volatile stuff.

Lin Yutong made a calculation in his heart. Unless this thing is for promotion, there is a small amount of stock for spare, and it will be made immediately when there is a large demand... Otherwise, it will not be possible to do business based on this.

The most important thing for the two of them now is to prepare for war.In the borderlands, if there is a little chaos outside, the order will be chaotic.There are too many bandits and robbers, petty theft.

Now that it was decided to use Zhuangzi's land to build the house, Fourth Master discussed several ideas with Jin Kuang.Unexpectedly, Jin Kuang immediately fell in love with a circular village that Si Ye had drawn casually.The house is surrounded by circles, the walls are high and the roof is high, and every floor on the inside is a building that is one floor higher.

Jin Kuang didn't say to build this, but said: "This is very interesting." Then he left the blueprint.

This shows that in his subconscious mind, he believes that even if the frontier is stable, it will not be stable for long.

But in this case, why is he not in a hurry when he returns to his hometown.

What cards does he have in his hand?

But no matter what the hole cards are, it will never work if no one has them.Myself and fourth master are in charge of general affairs, and the war preparations and materials are fully prepared, so I have the right to speak in my hands.

This is really no small matter.

Jinsan took the lead in collecting wild vegetables... In the future, this point can be set up frequently, and medicinal materials can also be collected scattered.In addition, in the mountains, it has to be planted secretly.

The current conditions are limited, and if you have money, you dare not spend it casually, which makes people feel very rich.There are a lot of restrictions on how to do things.In this case, the originally simple things have to be complicated, and the important thing is two words - concealment.

Can't make a big splash.

Seeing that Tongtong was worried, the fourth master said, "There are some things that you don't have to stare at. You have to use some people if they can..."

Who else can use it?

Fourth Master added another sentence: "...I saw a nice kid in the academy..." Then he pointed at Sanfang.

Sister Lin fell in love with her? !

So... Maybe you can talk to Aunt Wu?
