I Made 300000 a Year in Ancient Times

Qu Qing thought for a long time about what he was going to do to create a family business. First, he had no experience, and now he was basically powerless. Besides, there were many inconvenient places in ancient times, but it also meant that There are also many opportunities in many places waiting for him to discover.

He has thought about all the industries he can think of, such as musical instruments, wine making, grape growing, and even pig raising, but either he has no capital or he doesn't have so much time. In the end, there are very few industries he can choose, at least at the beginning of his business.

And besides making money, he also hopes to gain reputation points, that is, he can gain the favor of the local people while making money, and it is best to drive everyone to become rich. For the sake of kindness, they will also take care of Huazizhou and Maoer, the latter is even more important than making money.

Even though no one in the world is a good person, but if he favors a hundred people, at least it is impossible for all of those hundred people to be bad people.After all, with the understanding of this world in the past two months, a widow with a brother's brother knows with his feet that he will definitely be bullied. If no one takes care of him, even if he has money, he will still be bullied life.

Whenever thinking of these, Qu Qing felt how heavy the responsibility was on her shoulders.

He thought a lot, and finally locked his initial goal in a small range. Given that his current identity is bound to the teacher, and there is no way to get rid of the shackles of the teacher for the time being, the career he wants to do is the most important thing. Fortunately, being able to work as a teacher with him complements each other.

This reminded him of the papermaking technology that he had thought about a long time ago. At first he just wanted to simply solve the problem of students' difficulty in reading and writing, but now he sees business opportunities from it. Paper here is very expensive. He couldn't even afford it. In addition, when he went to the bookstore before, the people in the bookstore asked him if he wanted to copy books to make money. This reminded him of the second of the four great inventions of ancient times, papermaking and movable type printing!

Although he doesn't know how to make paper, he knows that the raw material for papermaking is trees. As long as he knows the technology and secures the site, papermaking is a low-cost technology that benefits the country and the people.

Movable type printing is not difficult for him, and he does not know how to engrave, but the existence of his own literacy has already solved the biggest problem, that is, the labor force for literacy is expensive, and now he has dozens of students to study, and they will not be able to do it in the future. He can be hired as his assistant. In this case, he can take advantage of the trend to engage in movable type printing in this era, and print books for sale.

It's just that he has been in this world for a short time now, and he has visited few places. He doesn't know if there is movable type printing in the developed places in the outside world. In other places, he was a little worried that if movable type printing had already existed outside, it just hadn't spread here.

But if you want to know the outside world, it is impossible to ask him to go to the capital to take a look now, that is unrealistic.

Qu Qing thought for a long time, then suddenly remembered that although he had never been outside, there was a person who had been outside. Didn't Zhao Dahu go outside for more than ten years and earn a fortune before returning?Go ask him, maybe you can get the information you want from him.

Thinking of this, after school, he asked Zhao Huai and Zhao Xuan'er if Zhao Dahu was at home. After hearing that he was at home, he asked Hua Zizhou and Mao'er to go home and cook first. He had something to visit.

Zhao Xuan'er and Zhao Huai were very happy when they heard that the teacher was going to their home. They each carried their schoolbags and led him to their home bouncingly.

It was only after this visit that he realized that he had come by coincidence. Zhao Dahu would go to the town for half a month every month, and he just came back from the town yesterday. When he saw Qu Qing, he hurriedly invited him to the upper seat and gave him the last seat at home. Haocha asked cautiously: "I don't know why Mr. Qu came to see me today, but my children are causing trouble for Mr. in school?"

"It's nothing, Zhao Xuan'er and Zhao Huai are very obedient and intelligent in the school, I came here because I have other things I want to ask brother Zhao about, it's like this, you are away from home, you have seen a lot, I just want to ask During your time outside, do you know whether the books outside are printed or copied by hand?"

Zhao Dahu was a little surprised at his question, thought for a while and answered: "It is said that there are woodblock printing, but that is only useful for very few books. Most of the books on the market are copied by people, so they are expensive, but Mr. What do you want to ask? Is it copying books to make money for the family? I have also met many scholars outside, copying books for bookstores to make money for their families."

Qu Qing said: "Not really, I want to solve the problem of children's reading paper now, most of the schools use bamboo chips, but after all, it is not as easy to store and carry as paper, and it is easy to hurt children's hands, But paper is too expensive, and most people can’t afford it, so I thought, can I make paper myself, in this way, everyone can work together, and children can use paper to write on.”

Zhao Dahu was a little shocked by his thoughts, after all, he had only heard that the gentleman could teach, and this was the first time he had heard that the gentleman was also in charge of making paper: "Mr. can make paper?"

Qu Qing smiled and said: "I don't know, but there must be someone who will. Such a powerful invention as papermaking must be recorded in books. I have vaguely seen that the materials used to make paper are trees and plants. Since If the ancients could do it, then I must be able to do it too, and this is also for the benefit of the people here, so I want to try."

Zhao Dahu bowed his hands to him, and said with admiration: "Mr. is so considerate of the students. I really didn't find the wrong person. If Mr. encounters any difficulties, just tell me, I will try my best to do what I can."

Qu Qing thanked you, and you know everything you want to know. Just as he was about to leave, Mrs. Zhao had already prepared dinner outside and killed a chicken for him. Qu Qing was originally thinking about his family, but in the end it was really The kindness was hard to give up, so he was dragged to stay at his house for dinner and a drink. At the banquet, Zhao Dahu repeatedly asked him to teach his children to read well, and Qu Qing agreed, and finally had a drink. some.

Zhao Dahu seemed a little drunk, pulled Qu Qingdao and cried out with a sigh:

"Brother Qu Qing, I know it was unfair to buy your house when you were in trouble, but at that time I saw that you really needed money. I just came home and didn't know much about you. I think everyone is from the same hometown, so I will help you, and I really need this house to house my family, but I didn’t expect it to hurt you, and now you live in a thatched cottage. I really feel sorry for you. ..."

Only then did Qu Qing know that the two-entry spacious blue-brick and tile-roofed house that Zhao Dahu lived in now belonged to the original owner, not to mention whether what Zhao Dahu said was the truth, Qu Qing no longer cared. , he said with an indifferent attitude:

"It's okay, I didn't think about it. I was ignorant at the beginning. I took the money and lost, but I don't regret it. People with ambition should look forward. I lost it myself. I will find a way to start again in the future." Earn a new one and come back, what is this, it’s just a dead thing.”

Qu Qing thought to himself, it should be that Zhao Dahu was afraid that he would trouble him by pointing at him in the future, so he deliberately arranged this meal and let the conversation go first.

Zhao Dahu stared at him for a while, making sure that he was sincere, and after he was not dissatisfied at all, he patted him on the back vigorously, saying hello to him, the young man is capable and ambitious, and asked for him in private after dinner. Send money to Qu Qing.

Although Qu Qing is short of money now, he resolutely refused: "You are responsible for teaching the children's Shuxiu to me. Don't give it privately. If the parents of the students know that I accept gifts privately, the teaching How unfair."

Zhao Dahu stared at him with round eyes, blushed and said loudly: "Whoever wants to say anything about you, let him come to me. The school I built and the husband I hired are all paid for by me. You can take my money." What's the matter, besides, I'm sorry for you, I'm really sorry, I didn't pull you at that time, but pushed you from behind, otherwise you..."

Qu Qing heard him talk about the former owner of the prodigal family again, thinking that you would not listen to that prodigal son at that time, so he quickly stopped and said: "Don't talk, don't talk, okay, I'll accept this, I'm still This is the first time you encounter someone begging for money from others, so you should be as careful as possible, so as not to reveal your wealth.”

He couldn't figure out what Zhao Dahu was thinking, but at least on the surface, the meal was a feast for the guests and the host, and Qu Qing also took five taels of silver and kicked it in his pocket.I thought to myself, most likely when Zhao Dahu bought the house from Qu Qing, he should have taken advantage of a lot, otherwise he would not apologize all at once and make such a generous purchase.

Going home after dinner, Zhao Dahu was about to send him off again, so Qu Qing quickly waved his hands and told them to go home, so they didn't bother to send him off, so they didn't send out their whole family to send Qu Qing to the entrance of the village.

On the way back, everyone he met was respected in every possible way. Qu Qing sighed in his heart, teachers in this era are really respected.

At this time, the sun had not yet set, and Qu Qing was slightly drunk. He was thinking that he might go to the town on Sunday, and gave up the idea of ​​asking someone to buy things for him. I can find a way to ask someone to help me bring it from other places, but I don't know how much it will cost, but fortunately, I got another windfall today.

Walking halfway, I met the youngest son of the village chief's family. He is a little older now, and his parents are also getting old. He needs him to take care of the family and prepare to get married, so when Qu Qing started school, he asked him to study. When, he didn't go.

As soon as we met today, Qu Qing suddenly remembered that he had promised to name him before, so he asked the youngest of the village chief's family to talk about it, and the youngest said happily: "It is best to have a new name. I'm going to find sir, sir, my brother is back, he came back this afternoon, and he brought a new daughter-in-law back. In two days, my family will hold a simpler banquet. My father said that he will invite you to dinner. "

Qu Qing naturally congratulated them again and again, and after asking about the date, they went back to each other.

After passing the village, there is a quiet and weed-free path.

Qu Qing walked halfway, turned a corner and bumped into Hua Zizhou. He grabbed the other's hand and pulled him into his arms, so that the other party might not fall accidentally.

After the man stood firmly, Qu Qing didn't let go. Instead, he clasped the back of the man's head with one hand and the other's waist with the other, hugged him even harder, and took a deep breath around his neck.

Huazizhou felt the itching and numbness on his neck, and his body trembled. This feeling reminded him of something instantly, his expression went blank for a moment, his legs went limp uncontrollably, and he almost fell to the ground.

Qu Qing clasped his waist tightly and pressed it against himself so as not to fall. I don't know if he touched something or felt something. His eyes gradually became dark, like a beast, which made Hua Zizhou who was watching him panic, and hurriedly pushed away. Qu Qing's hand, avoiding sight, said incoherently: "Go back... I, let's go back."

Seeing him shyly walking ahead, Qu Qing thought that she would meet him because he missed her and came out to meet her now.

"Come here to pick me up?"

"Just... Come and see, why you haven't come back so late."

Qu Qing felt a little sweet in his heart, and walked over to hold his hand, Hua Zizhou noticed a faint smell of wine on his body, and asked, "Have you been drinking?"

Qu Qing replied: "Yes, I went to Zhao Dahu to ask if there is any printing outside, and then he enthusiastically kept me for dinner. The chickens were all killed. I would feel embarrassed if I didn't eat, and I would inevitably drink at the banquet." I took two sips of wine," he said for a while before remembering to ask, "By the way, have you had any?"

"Everyone said they would wait for you to come back, so they didn't eat."

"Stupid." He pinched someone on the palm of his hand and said, "Next time if I have something to go out, you can eat by yourself before you come back. Don't wait for me in the future. If you and the children are hungry, I will feel bad, especially you, who are so thin."

"Yeah." Hua Zizhou responded in a low voice, glanced down at him as he pulled his hand closer, then turned his face away, letting the cool wind cool down his flushed face.

Qu Qing glanced at his expression when he turned his head, his throat slid inadvertently, and from the corner of his eye, he saw that he could see his home after turning a corner, Hua Zizhou also quickened his pace and walked in front with some surprises, he was actually very hungry Yes, it's not that I don't want to eat after waiting for a long time, but I just want to wait until Qu Qing comes back.

"Zizhou." Before walking around the corner, Qu Qing suddenly called out to him in a hoarse voice.

Hua Zizhou subconsciously turned his head back, and when he couldn't touch the defense line, his chin was pinched. When he raised his head, he saw Qu Qing who was infinitely approaching him, his eyes enlarged.

Qu Qing lowered her head slightly, and kissed him, deep and shallow, like a game.

This sudden kiss was intense and lingering, just when Hua Zizhou was having difficulty breathing but was addicted to it, Qu Qing suddenly let him go, looked at his blurred eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and patted his forehead lightly : "Let's go, go home and eat."

Hua Zizhou was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and immediately caught up with Qu Qing. He didn't understand what happened just now, he just felt... felt...

Excessive!

"what?"

When Qu Qing turned around, Hua Zizhou realized that he had said everything he was thinking just now, and immediately covered his mouth with a guilty conscience.

After walking for a while, he reached out and grabbed the hem of Qu Qing's clothes, eased his breath and said, "Sir, were you bullying me just now?"

"No." Qu Qing blinked at him innocently.

Hua Zizhou looked at him seriously for a while, and finally believed what he said, and said: "Sir, don't always be like this, it would be bad if someone saw it."

Hearing this, Qu Qing sighed lightly, and said with a little loss: "If Zizhou doesn't like it, then forget it."

When Hua Zizhou heard that he misunderstood that he didn't want to get close to him, he explained in a flustered manner with evasive eyes, and his breathing and heartbeat became faster when he spoke: "It's also...not...I don't like it, I just can't If you are seen, if you are seen, you will be gossiped, and it will be bad for your husband's reputation."

"Don't worry, there's no one around here, but... what do you mean by 'I don't dislike' just now? I don't understand."

"I like... I like it..." Hua Zizhou's voice suddenly weakened, almost as inaudible as a fly.

Qu Qing felt more and more amusing to tease him, so she messed up his hair with two hands, and asked him to say it louder, but then Hua Zizhou was unwilling to say anything.

Hua Zizhou seemed to have realized something suddenly, widened his eyes and said: "Sir, I understand what your original sentence "double negation means affirmation" means. What I said just now is such a sentence, right?"

Qu Qing was startled, looked away, and reluctantly admitted: "It's sort of..."

Hua Zizhou grabbed his arm tightly and shook it, and said anxiously: "What do you mean, it's obvious, I didn't dislike it when I said it just now, it means I like it, then what you said at that time, didn't you also like it?" I mean? Mister likes me too, right?"

"What I said and what you said are not in the same artistic conception. These words are not in the same artistic conception. Even if they are the same words, the meanings are quite different." Qu Qing still tried to get away with it.

But Hua Zizhou was not fooled, he said: "I don't study much, sir, don't try to lie to me again, in my opinion, it is clearly a meaning, an artistic conception, if it is really not, then you have to explain it to me, sir." Lectures, and I will believe what is different when I explain clearly.”

"Hehe, you've learned to be smart," Qu Qing pinched his face, and said helplessly, "It's fine if you know it, why do you have to ask me to tell it?"

Finally, finally got the survey.

The smile on Hua Zizhou's face couldn't stop brightening, he said: "But I still like to hear it from you, sir."

Qu Qing stared at him for three seconds, then resolutely refused: "No."

"Ah? Why!" He had already said that, so what's the point of saying it again.

He originally wanted to relentlessly chase after that sentence, but during the conversation between the two, they arrived at home. Jiang Liehu and the two children were already hungry, and Qu Qing was busy with them. The dishes were hot, and the conversation with Hua Zizhou just now naturally had no way to continue.

After taking a bath after dinner, before it was dark, the two of them sat in the courtyard and chatted, told stories, and passed the idle time. When it was almost dark, they went home to sleep. Qing lit the kerosene lamp and was about to walk in according to the light. During the process, she accidentally bumped into the cabinet, and a small bag of paper holding something fell out of the cabinet.

Qu Qing remembered that it was given to Zizhou by his mother-in-law when Hua Zizhou went to her mother's house.

With a guilty conscience, Hua Zizhou hurried over to pick up the small paper bag, and stuffed it into the cabinet, as if he was afraid of being found out.

Qu Qing raised an eyebrow on the left: "What is this?"

The little cat also asked curiously, so Hua Zizhou could only perfunctorily say: "This is my medicine. The doctor prescribed it to me before."

The little cat believed it and didn't ask any more questions, but Qu Qing didn't believe it. The cat fell asleep after talking to them for a while after going to bed. The air suddenly became quiet, so quiet that everyone in the room could hear their breathing. .

Hua Zizhou knew that Qu Qing was still awake, and Qu Qing also knew that Hua Zizhou was still awake, but the two were lying on their backs with the cat between them, and neither of them spoke.

Suddenly, the two of them turned over and moved at the same time, the tacit understanding made both of them a little surprised.

"Zizhou, do you want to sleep in the middle?" Suddenly, Qu Qing's voice broke the silence of the night.

Hua Zizhou immediately sat up straight when he heard the words, and his movements were a little big. Qu Qing hurriedly signaled him to shush. He immediately lowered his head and carefully watched the cat for a while, and he was relieved when he found that he hadn't been woken up. I couldn't help being a little excited when I thought about whether it was finally time to start the little secret of the night again.

Qu Qing also sat up carefully, and hugged the cat to the innermost part against the wall. Although he only did it once, he was already very proficient in the movements.

Huazizhou fell asleep again. Last time he was so tired that he had to sleep in Qu Qing's arms. But this time he was lucky. Thinking of that incident, he was still a little nervous and scared, and he couldn't say anything. excitement.

Most of the feelings that night were pain, and some were indescribably weird and never-before-experienced. In addition, it was too intense. He felt that he was going to die several times, even if he died the next second. Nothing to be surprised about.

Qu Qing, who was at the side, seemed to feel his emotions, and gently embraced him in his arms, patted his back to comfort him, then touched his spine one after another, and said in a low voice: " Don't be afraid, nothing will happen tonight."

After hearing what he said, Hua Zizhou gradually relaxed, and then another question from Qu Qing made him nervous again.

"What was in that little paper bag just now? The little cat believes you, but I don't believe it."

He spoke very quietly, and said it into Huazizhou's ear, the moist and warm air itched Huazizhou to hide to one side.

"That..." He responded in a low voice, "I said, but you have to promise me, don't be angry, my mother didn't mean it."

Qu Qing became even more curious now: "What is that? I saw it when your mother gave it to you that day. It was so mysterious. Could it be that you are doing something that violates the law for the first time?"

Hua Zizhou looked up at him and said, "Nonsense, that's not true, those... well, how should I put it, in fact, before, I didn't think that you...house...are not good at that, right?"

While talking, he glanced at Qu Qing's face, and seeing that Qu Qing didn't show any obvious anger, he continued, "Later, I told my mother, and my mother also thought you did something. You've said it, you know it, and that's it. Later... my mother couldn't let it go, so... asked someone... to find medicine, and said it was for you to take, but you didn't explain it to mother, so I At that time, it was not easy to refuse to accept it..."

Qu Qing didn't know what kind of expression to put on for a moment: "So, this is a strong, yang, and medicine? I still trust someone, so, does anyone else know that something is wrong with me?"

"No, no, my mother said, absolutely no one will know it's you. Besides, if you misunderstand, at most, you will misunderstand my two elder brothers. No one will doubt you..."

Hua Zizhou felt that his tone was not right, and thought that he was still angry, what mother said was right, a man can't tolerate what others think he is not good at, why did he just tell the truth, he should insist that he ate it medicine.

Qu Qing pretended to sigh sadly: "It seems that it is my husband's fault that I can't satisfy Zizhou in this aspect. It seems that I will work harder in the future."

When Hua Zizhou thought of the way he made himself afraid that night, he suddenly became anxious, grabbed his clothes by the neckline and said, "Don't, don't, you know I didn't mean that. When Mother gave me the medicine, we didn't even have it. Round room."

Qu Qing didn't know, he was deliberately teasing Hua Zizhou, it was really funny, he found that he didn't know anything before driving meat, but once he drove meat, he couldn't stop the car in some places.

Seeing his nervousness, he lowered his head and kissed the corner of his eyes, and said, "Today is Wednesday, and there are two days left before the holiday. The night after tomorrow, you don't have to worry about having classes the next day."

This time, Hua Zizhou quickly understood what he meant by his words, and suddenly felt that his face was so hot that he could boil eggs. He buried his head in Qu Qing's chest, and responded in a small voice.

Qu Qing stroked his hair, and then naturally unfolded all the men's deceptions, I will just talk about it, and promise not to say anything else, and Hua Zizhou is not surprised by anything. He was fooled again in a daze, and by the time he felt something was wrong and opened his eyes wide, it was too late.

"!!!"

He tightly covered his mouth with both hands, only dared to make a slight panting sound, the corners of his eyes were moist, staring at someone accusingly, he did not dare to make a sound, for fear of waking up the cat next to him.

Qu Qing stopped suddenly, and said to him: "Hua Zizhou, say you like me."

Hua Zizhou was taken aback, what does this suddenly mean?

He looked nervously at the sleeping cat next to him, moved uneasily, accidentally bumped into something, his whole body trembled like an electric shock, he held back and replied in a low voice: "It's better...don't talk , sir, let's... Hurry up, so as not to wake up the cat."

"I don't want to say it, but you still think I'm not fast enough?" Qu Qing's voice was full of dissatisfaction, and then said: "That's right, it's a bit difficult to use here." After finishing speaking, he directly ignored Hua Zizhou's shock and nervousness, He went straight to the next door with the person in his arms.

Hua Zizhou thought that he obviously didn't mean that, why are his words always misinterpreted today?

In the following time, it seemed to let go all of a sudden and become wild, but it was still relatively quiet, only the occasional calls of unknown birds and beasts could be heard outside.

"Say, you like me." Qu Qing condescendingly issued his unreasonable orders.

Hua Zizhou had no choice but to say obediently.

Qu Qing still felt dissatisfied, just like a tricky Party A, said: "It's too perfunctory, let's talk about it again."

Hua Zizhou spoke seriously again.

Qu Qing said again: "It's too rigid, not touching enough, let's say it again."

He was looking for faults tonight, Hua Zizhou simply hugged him tightly, and said "I like you" in his ear tirelessly, and finally even said and did, his voice was a little hoarse, it was really exhausting, and finally said After saying "Sir, I like you", I fell asleep.

This sound, the unprecedented tenderness in the voice, contained the love of tolerance and indulgence, which made people's hearts thump.

Qu Qing thought about it in a daze for a long time before he came back to his senses. Even though no one saw him around, he restrained the emotions on his face, and even deliberately showed disgust. He pinched the ankle of his slender hand with some dissatisfaction and said: " Too skinny, a little fatter would be better."

After a while, he leaned over and whispered in Huazizhou's ear as if he was slow to remember something, "I'll just say it once, you've heard it, so don't ask me to tell you again gone."

I like you too.
