I deliver the courier at the end of Qin

Chen Mai's sentence "send seafood" opened Xu Qin's mind.Indeed, Qingdao is most famous for its seafood. "Historical Records Huozhi Biography" records: "The whole area is surrounded by mountains and seas, the fertile soil is thousands of miles away, mulberry and hemp are suitable, and the people are rich in literature, silk, fish and salt", which shows that this place has been rich in aquatic products and sea salt since ancient times.

The most common fish eaten by the inland people in the Qin Dynasty was carp, and it was difficult to eat seafood.At the ancient speed of transportation, it takes ten and a half months to ship to the home. If there is no refrigerator for refrigeration, the seafood will become sea stink.

Although ice mirrors existed in the Zhou Dynasty, and Xu Qin was able to draw patterns based on the cultural relics he had seen in museums, it was very difficult to preserve ice cubes. The royal family had to collect ice in winter and store it in the ice cellar, and only in summer could it be used. Ordinary people can't afford ice at all.

It cannot be transported fresh, there are only two ways: dry it in the sun, and marinate it with salt and distiller's grains.

As soon as he said it, Xu Qin took Chen Mai to go shopping in the sea market first, because Xu Qin himself had the taste of modern people, so he asked Chen Mai to taste it first, and Xu Qin who thought it was delicious was on the silk. Draw it down and prepare to make it into a product brochure and bring it back for promotion.

In order to be able to pick the right seafood, Xu Qin also spent some experience searching for some related articles.The dried seafood that can be dried in the sun is mainly some shellfish. Since the Han Dynasty, there have been records that some dignitaries liked to eat shellfish.

The oysters of Nanli refer to clams, and the special product of Qingdao is clams.The earliest surviving agricultural almanac in my country, "Xia Xiaozheng", mentioned: "A sparrow enters the sea and becomes a clam." The ancients believed that the sparrow flew into the sea in September, and it could turn into a clam. The transformation, that is, flower clams.

Clams can generally be dug on the beach, with white shells and purple lips, and some shells have patterns. After taking out the meat and cooking it, it is dried on the beach to become dried clams.

Beijin refers to a kind of shell that is also extremely delicious in modern times-abalone.Although Qin Shihuang was hidden in an abalone cart after his death, the abalone at that time referred to salted fish, so it would stink, and the modern abalone was called flatfish in the Qin and Han Dynasties.

According to historical records, Wang Mang, Cao Cao, and Sun Quan all liked to eat flathead. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the price soared all the way, because "there is no flathead in the south of the Yangtze River", and one piece of flathead costs thousands of dollars.It shows that at least before the Southern and Northern Dynasties, flatfish was still a special product on the coast of Jeju Peninsula, and Langya County happened to be in its production area.

Regardless of how Wang Mang and the others got the flatfish, Xu Qin had no choice but to dry the abalone as well.

In addition, there are scallops, razor clams, sea melon seeds and other shells of various colors, which can be dried into scallops, and they are all delicious when taken home, whether they are boiled or boiled.

As for the processing of fish, there are more methods, such as drying the fish, making it into salted fish, or using distiller's grains to make distiller's grains and carrying it in jars.

Xu Qin likes the Pipi shrimp very much. Sprinkle some salt on the top and dry it in the sun. You can also take some back home.In the end, Xu Qin bought some dried seafood products of various colors, and filled six carts, just in time for the horses bought from Donghu merchants to drive back, but the coachmen had to hire more coachmen.

It's a pity that the crabs are not easy to handle, so we have to give up, otherwise, if the choking crabs had to be refrigerated, Xu Qin would have wanted to make a canned choking crab to sell.In the end, he only followed the craftsmanship of the people in the coastal area, and made a meal of salty and delicious choking crab with wine and salt water, and the two ate together.

When Xu Qin picked out some seawater pearls and shell ornaments to take back to sell to the girls and young women who love beauty in Wen County, he had already lived in Langya County for more than ten days before he knew it. Seeing that the Chinese New Year was approaching, it was time to go back.

However, in Langya County these days, Xu Qin has also gained a lot. Not only did he make friends with the East Huma merchant, but he also settled on several dry seafood suppliers after field inspections, shopping around, and friendly communication with the shopkeepers. , in the future, if there is a need in Wen County, just send someone to pay the money to pick up the goods, and there is no need for Xu Qin to go there himself.

After returning to Wen County, Xu Qin temporarily turned the Escort Bureau into a large store of Langya specialty products. After hearing the news, many people came here to taste the new ones, and some came back after eating the delicious ones. All the six truckloads Qin brought from Langya County were sold out.

Facing the customers who obviously haven't bought enough, Xu Qin smiled and took out the carefully designed product brochure: "Don't worry, everyone, I have already made an agreement with the merchants there on my trip to Langya County, what kind of seafood do you want to buy in the future?" All products can be ordered from me, and they will be delivered to your door within a month.”

As the Chinese New Year is getting closer, people in Wen County want to have a good meal before and after the Chinese New Year. They can eat delicious seafood that they have never eaten before. Although it is dry food, many people flock to it. Xu Qin and Chen Mai wrote a bunch of order forms overnight, and after handing them over to the riders, he let them drive away in the carriage.

In his mind, he connected the system to open the progress bar of the task completion, which showed that one-sixth of the task had been completed, but one-sixth of the time to complete the task had passed, Xu Qin felt a little anxious.

Chen Mai was keenly aware that Xu Qin was a little restless recently, so he couldn't help picking a time when only the two of them were alone and quietly asked: "Recently, the business of the Escort Bureau is doing well, and I made a fortune selling Langya seafood, and I even opened a business in Langya County. After entering the Xinyou Road, why do I feel a little depressed when I look at the expression of the eldest brother?"

Xu Qin didn't expect Chen Mai to observe characters so meticulously at such a young age.He thought about it for a while, and decided to tell Chen Mai the whole matter: "I want to set up six post stations for our escort agency within half a year. Now we have been busy for more than a month, and only one can be settled. I am afraid that the half-year deadline will be settled." Too late."

"Who gave the half-year deadline?" Chen Mai asked anxiously, and secretly complained that the time given by this person was too short, "It must be an unreasonable person."

At this time, Kunpeng, who was chasing Rhubarb and playing in the yard, suddenly sneezed: "Hey, who is talking bad about me?"

Xu Qin sincerely held the hand of his only employee: "I can't tell you about this in detail now, but don't worry, I will tell you as soon as the time is right." When Kunpeng admitted that Chen Mai was officially As an employee, he can naturally suggest to Kunpeng whether he can tell Chen Mai the truth.

Chen Mai was stared at so solemnly by Xu Qin, and looked away a little embarrassed: "For the sake of me solving your problems, you must be the first to tell me when the time comes."

Xu Qin was amused: "How did you solve my worries and problems?" Comforting doesn't count...

Chen Mai raised his head and said with sparkling eyes, "Brother, did you forget that my grandfather is a wealthy businessman in Huzhou Township?"

It was only then that Xu Qin vaguely remembered that Chen Mai had mentioned it to him, but he only valued Chen Mai's outstanding talent, and never gossiped about his family background, so he forgot.

"Sorry, I really don't remember much." Xu Qin said embarrassedly.

Chen Mai didn't care, and continued: "Since the transaction between the elder brother and the Langya merchant can be counted as a post station, then if my grandfather and you also made this transaction, wouldn't it be counted as a new addition in Yangwu County?" A post station. And I went out to persuade, and it can also be set up as a real bodyguard branch, what we did in Wen County, it can be done there as well."

Xu Qin was heartbroken after hearing this, and felt that Chen Mai's figure instantly became majestic in front of him. He couldn't help but stepped forward to hug Chen Mai, and said happily: "Amai, you are my timely rain, you give me every time. Great idea."

Chen Mai was hugged by Xu Qin, his face was slightly red, he tiptoed secretly, put his head on Xu Qin's shoulder, and said softly: "As long as the eldest brother is happy, I will give you many good ideas in the future."

Chen Mai explained his plan to Xu Qin in detail, and it turned out that his great-grandfather was Zhang Negative, a well-known wealthy businessman in Huzhou, and many relatives also did business.The Zhang family is usually busy traveling in other places, but they always have to go back to their hometown for reunion at the end of the year.Chen Mai is also going back to celebrate the New Year this time, he hopes that Xu Qin will go back with him, meet with Zhang Negative, and settle the matter of the Escort branch.

"Will he agree?" Xu Qin was a little worried.

"Don't worry, businessmen value profits. I will calculate the accounts of the Escort Bureau in the past two months. We have made a lot of money in a short period of time. Father Wai Zeng will only make money if he cooperates with us. He will definitely agree. Yes." Chen Mai said confidently with pride on his face.

Xu Qin still attaches great importance to going to the staff's home to pay New Year's greetings. He first took Chen Mai to the best clothing store in Wen County to have his clothes tailored, made two elegant new clothes, and then took himself home as a gift to him. The Xu family also had gifts from relevant officials of the county government, and they ordered two copies of the rest, one for Uncle Chen and one for Zhang Negative.In addition, at the suggestion of my mother, I brought some Wen County specialties.

Xu Qin and Chen Mai usually learn how to ride horses from Escort riders in their free time, and they have already learned it now. They each ride a fast horse, carry heavy gifts, and have an app to accurately navigate the best route. It took two days to arrive at Hutan Township.

Chen Mai talked non-stop along the way, and suddenly became a little nervous when he saw the towering gate of Yangwu County, he reined in his horse and said to Xu Qin: "Brother, I seem to finally feel a little bit of the feeling of returning home as mentioned in the book. "

"That's where it is." Xu Qin laughed, "I'll hang out with the big brother. I will really develop in the future, and then we will have to make a big show——"

Speaking of this, Xu Qin paused, and simply sang a section of "The Return of the Great Ancestor" to Chen Mai: "One side of the flag white Hulan traps a rabbit that welcomes the frost, and the other side of the flag red song beats a Biyuewu. One side of the flag chicken Learning to dance, a dog with a flag has wings, and a snake with a flag wrapped around a gourd.——This is what is called returning home.”

Chen Mai had never seen the big world, so he was really shocked by Xu Qin's joke: "Who is this? It's a big battle."

This is the person who will be your emperor in the future.Xu Qin was thinking in his heart, but he said: "A man who claims to have beheaded the son of Emperor Bai, do you think he is very powerful?"

The author has something to say: Xu Qin: O_O Will your family agree?

Chen Mai: @[email protected] I seem to be a little nervous

Zhang Negative: Please, the scene of coming out to meet your parents is still at the end, so I will misunderstand you ==

The new year of the Qin Dynasty is October, and the historical plot line begins after the new year

The word ostentation is related to opera, but it didn’t exist in the Qin Dynasty, so only Xu Qin used this word

I have visited the ice chamber in the Han Dynasty. I am also curious about how the ice can be hidden on the ground.

ps: Ma Yun of the Qin Dynasty and Liu Qiangdong of the Qin Dynasty were joking, but in fact, the little relative should be regarded as Wang Wei of the Qin Dynasty?
