When attacked and worn as a farmer's daughter-in-law

Cooperating with a local businessman was rather troublesome to deal with. During this period, Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe had sent the triplets back to Huanggu.Along the way, in addition to accompanying escorts, there were Zhaocaijinbao and Pigeon No. [-] and No. [-] escorts.Even so, worry was inevitable, until the two of them saw the news sent back by number two and knew that their sons had arrived home safely, they were completely relieved.

There was Mr. Shen sitting in the barren valley, and Shenjiahu and the others helped to take care of it. Fang Tianlin felt relieved and was not in a hurry to go back.Now that the preliminary tasks have been basically completed, what to do next depends on Yuan Chengan's work efficiency.

These days Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe can be said to be very leisurely. They didn't know many people in Linshan County, and they had wandered around the city. It wasn't very interesting. In the first few days, the two of them spent most of their time in the house.

Time cannot be wasted. Fang Tianlin took the time to start thinking about the actual production process of the items to be developed. Of course, the current level of craftsmanship in Linshan County is not up to automatic production. It is still mainly manual. He can at most use some human machinery.

Among them, handmade soap is the easiest to produce. If it is made by local methods, this item can be launched directly, but it is limited by materials and cannot be mass-produced. To meet this point, it involves chemical raw materials such as oil and alkali. Production equipment is more advanced.

On the premise that the original craftsmanship can meet the current needs, Fang Tianlin does not intend to sacrifice simplicity for complexity, and he puts most of his attention on the canned food.

Canned food is all-encompassing, as long as it can be eaten, almost can be made into canned food.These are nothing, except for the unique taste, like this person, most people are actually not keen on canned food, and they only focus on these things when they are lazy or want to change their taste.But there is one thing that is incomparable to others, that is, the shelf life of canned food is very long.

The climate in Linshan County is hot and humid, especially in summer, and the food spoils very quickly. Many seasonal items cannot be sold, so they can only rot in the fields and forests.The emergence of canned food can greatly solve this problem. At that time, local specialty products such as fruits, vegetables and meat that are not easy to preserve can be exported to all parts of the country.

The profits here are huge, rare things are more expensive, even if the taste of canned food may be slightly inferior, the lack of this item in the local area is enough to make people flock to it.Any rare item is a status symbol, as long as the price is not too high, the sales volume will be very impressive.

Fang Tianlin was writing and drawing in the study, and Shen Jiahe was not idle either.He is not a person who lives at leisure, and after only two days of leisure, he found a job for himself.After discussing with Fang Tianlin, Shen Jiahe decided to take advantage of this free time to broaden the Shen family's communication channels. During the day, he would meet with some related households introduced by the Yuan family, and at night, he would summarize the information passed by Yuan Cheng'an, and plan how to distribute the good breeds of different generations. .

For generations, the importance of food has been deeply rooted in the people of Jing Dynasty. If you have money, you can buy land. This is the consensus of everyone, with few exceptions.The Shen family holds such a good thing in their hands, and their lives are now settled down. It is impossible to let such resources go unused, and it is inevitable to spread the improved seeds. I'm afraid there is not much use for it.

There was a rule in the previous dynasty that merchants were not allowed to buy land. As a result, there were policies and countermeasures. There are many ways to circumvent this rule.One of the methods is to find a reliable person and put the land in his name, and then you can apply for the red deed. Going to the Yamen, there are many troubles in order to win the case, unless he starts suddenly and is stronger than the original owner.

In this dynasty, this system was abolished from the very beginning, and merchants could also buy land, but the number was limited.

The power of the county government in Linshan County is divided up by the local gentry, which can be completely ignored.You must know that most merchants are not just businessmen. It should be said that when the wealth of landlords and gentry accumulates to a certain level, they will step into the business world, and vice versa, but not many.Therefore, most of the merchants dealing with the Shen family were not pure merchants, but local gentry.

Grain is valued by every family. It is easy to promote new items such as canned food, but it is a bit more difficult to promote grain.

Shen Jiahe tentatively brought up this topic when dealing with other people, but the result was not too optimistic.These people are worthy of being businessmen, and they really don’t want to scatter hawks when they don’t see rabbits, but he is not discouraged, as long as their cooperation with the Shen family can be successful, even if there are too many, it will not be a problem at all to spare a few acres of land to plant the good seeds provided by the Shen family. Think of it as a favor from the Shen family.

It is a pity that this season it is estimated that the planting area cannot be expanded, and only sporadic trial planting is possible.

Shen Jiahe put down the book in his hand, saw that Fang Tianlin was still buried in the case, got up and pushed the door out, at this moment the willows on the moon were already outside, at this time, many people might have already gone to bed.

After thinking for a while, Shen Jiahe took a sugarcane into the kitchen, and quickly peeled and cut it into pieces.

"Tianlin, it's getting late, the rest will be done tomorrow." Shen Jiahe entered the room with a pot of sugar cane.

Fang Tianlin raised his head upon hearing the sound: "What time is it?"

"At the beginning of Haishi." Shen Jiahe put the basin on a bench, "Today I asked someone to buy some sugar cane, the taste is not bad, you can try it."

"Sugar cane?" Fang Tianlin was taken aback, then closed the book, tidied up the table, and put away all the items that should not be seen, "I forgot about this, I remember when we first came to Linshan County, we bought I bought some sugar cane as seedlings, how big is it now?"

"I only planted a few acres. I saw that you have been useless, so I sold them in the Shen family's shop. I made some money, but I didn't sell them all. The rest are still stored in the warehouse."

Around the beginning of spring, the sugar cane comes out of the cane pond one after another, and it is estimated that it will germinate when it is put down.

"How much is left?" Fang Tianlin couldn't have eaten the sugarcane he grew at home, but he wasn't thinking about it at that time, so he didn't remember the reason for planting sugarcane in the first place, but it's not too late to remember now.

"There's about one or two acres. If you don't use it, I'm going to sell it all." There are few kinds of fruits that can be eaten in winter, but sugarcane is one of them, and it's extremely sweet, which is very popular among children and adults. like.Shen Jiahe's hometown is in Guangyan Village, there is no sugarcane for him to eat there, if not for the better living conditions now, he would love it very much.

"What's the price of this thing in the city?"

"I asked people to inquire. It was very cheap in season, but now the price is much higher. The storage method here is not as good as ours. There are a lot of sugarcane that can survive the winter smoothly, but the water loss is relatively large, and the taste is not very good. , The ones I bought today are not bad, and the price is also high."

Fang Tianlin went to wash his hands, picked up a section of sugar cane and gnawed on it. It was indeed as Shen Jiahe said, not as good as his own.After eating the section in his hand, he asked casually: "Jiahe, do you know where the sugar comes from?"

"Sugar?" Shen Jiahe is not stupid at all, but his reaction was a little slow, he couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, "Could it be that sugar cane can be used to make sugar?"

"Well, there are many crops that can be used to make sugar, and sugarcane is one of them. I guess most of the brown sugar sold outside is sucrose."

Shen Jiahe was surprised at first, but when he thought of Fang Tianlin's actions beyond common sense, he calmed down after a while.So many unseen and unheard of things appeared in front of him, just like sugar, far from this level.However, he is still happy for Fang Tianlin. Recently, the family is short of money, so it would be good to have another job to make a living.

Time passed by, Yuan Cheng'an, as the intermediary contact person, spent some time, and finally notified all the famous merchants in Linshan County. Afterwards, he discussed with the Shen family and chose a good day for everyone to gather together.

Everyone knew that the two masters of the Shen family were not very old, but when they actually saw it with their own eyes, they still couldn't help being surprised.Usually at the age of the two of them, the old man in the family is usually in charge. It is not uncommon to delegate power, but it will not be so thorough.

Everyone present knew that the old man of the Shen family was still alive, but he had never seen him before. Even the head of the Shen family, Mr. Shen Jiahe, Shen Jiahe, appeared in front of everyone for the first time, which was a bit subtle.But no one is going to look into that, that's not what they're here for.

"Since you are here, you must have already figured out what to discuss. This time, a piece of white sugar will be temporarily added, and the cooperation method will remain the same as before. The Shen family will provide the prescription and provide the production plan. It will account for [-]%, and the remaining [-]%. Everyone here discuss it on their own, whether it is monopoly by one family or multi-party cooperation, you can decide what to do, and the Shen family will not interfere..." Fang Tianlin didn't want to argue with these people, so he got straight to the point and said everything he wanted to say.

After Fang Tianlin finished speaking, the atmosphere froze immediately, and it took a while before someone broke the silence in the room.

"Master Fang, the price starts at a thousand taels for one member. Isn't the Shen family's appetite too big?" A middle-aged man with a square head, big ears, and a shrewd face spoke first.

You must know that Linshan County is located in a remote place. If most of the wealth hadn't been concentrated in the hands of these people present, few of them would be able to come up with 1000 taels.Even so, 1000 taels is not a small amount for everyone here. Some of them may not be able to spend such a large sum of money. It is not that there is not enough money, but that many of them are private property. This kind of thing is not a necessary moment, and generally no one will do it.

"Master Zhou, this price seems a bit high at first glance, but compared with the possible benefits, it's not enough." Fang Tianlin was not in a hurry, and the bait was released, not afraid that they would not take the bait, "Oh, forget Having said that, you don’t necessarily need money to be a member, you can use various materials or artificial contacts instead.”

After receiving Fang Tianlin's signal, Shen Jiahe immediately sent the prepared list to everyone present.

After reading the material price list, everyone got together in twos and threes to start a discussion.With so much real money, many people will feel a little heavy in their hands, and they can replace it with the goods on the list, and they will feel a lot easier all of a sudden.

Once the biggest problem is solved, other things will be easy to handle. Soon, the participants from each workshop will be divided up.

After the people dispersed, Shen Jiahe couldn't help asking: "Tianlin, why is no one making trouble? Aren't merchants all cunning and powerful?"

"I don't know either. The original preparation work was wasted, but it's good. It saves us a lot of trouble. If we have a chance, we can ask Master Yuan."

"Ah."

As the two left, the voice gradually faded away.
