Chapter 252 The Controller of Stockings(1/2)
Because Mrs. Zhao's problem was solved, the business between Ji Que and Ning Hongyu was successfully launched in Qingping County.
In the past, he followed Ning Hongyu to succumb to demons. Now he learns investing from Ning Hongyu and finds it equally enjoyable.
"Those two barren hills need to be planted with mulberry trees so that the quantity of silk can keep up. The dyeing workshop also needs to be expanded. The compensation for the surrounding areas will be calculated based on the highest amount."
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of taels of silver were spent, without Ning Hongyu blinking an eye.
Immediately, Ning Hongyu said to the servant who came from the Ning family: "These two streets are all covered. If there is anything you don't want to sell, don't force it."
"Yes, miss!"
Soon, a group of servants went to take care of it.
Ji Que blinked his eyes and said, "Your family's business is to buy from mountain to mountain and sell from street to street?"
Ning Hongyu replied: "It's not your family. Now half of the dynasty knows that you are my man, so this is our business. For such an inexpensive small town, my father often buys half of the city directly.
street."
Ji Que took a breath and said, "Then what if we lose money?"
Ning Hongyu said: "Doing business is like fighting between people. First of all, you have to have momentum and courage. If you think you will lose money at the beginning, it is better not to do it."
"You take care of the rest." Ning Hongyu said seriously.
"I can't."
Faced with such a large sum of money coming in and out, Ji Que couldn't help but feel nervous.
I was even more nervous than when I first jumped into Ning Hongyu's arms and faced this girl on the top.
"Now you are the head of the family, don't worry, you can afford to lose." Ning Hongyu said with a calm expression.
Ji Que took a deep breath and determined that this was a challenge.
Because losing money is an extremely uncomfortable thing, he must avoid it.
Ning Hongyu didn't bring many servants, so the business in Qingping County eventually encountered a lot of trouble.
For example, when selling a shop, you encounter tough households who prevent others from selling their shops and doing business. Or, for example, local gangs want a piece of the pie and demand high-priced protection fees.
In fact, these things all need to be discussed, and Ji Que also has the capital to do so, because after dealing with Mrs. Zhao, he has a good relationship with the county magistrate and the head catcher.
With people like this building bridges, any price can be easily negotiated.
Unfortunately, Ji Que didn't understand very well. Hearing that the opponent's lion opened his mouth, he made a sliding shovel and broke the legs of five people on the street.
At this time, everyone in Qingping County recalled the horror of the "leg-breaking monster".
Ji Que was so excited that day that he thought there were only a few dozen people, but later he learned that hundreds of people, including Chen Zhu, had their legs broken, and the medical expenses were huge.

Because he was too fast at the time, the onlookers present could not see him clearly.
It wasn't until he made a sliding tackle that the gang members who came to ask for "protection money" fell to the ground with broken legs. Only then did someone confront the figure of Na Mohu and Ji Que in front of him.
As soon as the news spread, everyone in the gang was in danger. The boss was so frightened that he dared not go out and could only sleep at home with his two concubines in his arms.
Ji Que was still worried about this matter and felt that he had gone too far.
There is a saying that a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake.
He is unfamiliar with the place and is here to do business, how can he defeat these people?
He had prepared gifts and went to visit him, but in the afternoon his servants told him that everything was settled.
"It's all solved, can anyone help?" Ji Que said with a confused look on his face.
He was already tired of these things happening one after another, but suddenly a group of people came in the morning and suddenly wanted to collect 300 taels of protection fee.
He thought three hundred taels would be three hundred taels, after all, this was probably the rule.
But the other party went too far, saying three hundred taels per month.
Ji Que only felt that it was outrageous, so outrageous!
Nowadays, they have not earned half a penny, but they have spent a lot. When these people ask for 300 taels and pay them back every month, it will be 3600 taels in one year, 36000 taels in ten years, and 36000 taels in ten years.
Three hundred and sixty thousand taels, two hundred years...
Ji Que was originally a gentle and kind-hearted person, and would not lose his temper under normal circumstances unless he couldn't bear it.
But this morning when he counted two hundred years, he couldn't bear it anymore and made an impulsive and angry slide.
The servant looked at him and said cautiously: "There is a rumor in the streets and alleys that you are the frightened maniac with broken legs. The leaders of the two gangs personally sent people to apologize. Here are the letters of apology and some gifts."
Ji Que looked at the sincere contents of the envelope and said depressedly: "The Broken Leg Madman, who gave this name? Isn't this an injustice to a good person?"
Then he looked at the gifts sent by the bosses of the two gangs, and with a thought, he said: "I just took them to meet those nail dealers. This will definitely show sincerity."
As a result, as soon as Ji Que walked up to the door of the first nail house with the gift, the other party knelt on the ground with a cry, begging for mercy.
"The villain was temporarily lost in his mind and did not notice the names of adults. Sir, you have a lot, so don't argue with the villain!"
This nail shop owner who had been the most noisy on the street and encouraged people around him to stop selling his shop while naked, suddenly became like a frightened sheep.
Ji Que said: "Then you won't make trouble?"
"No more trouble! No more trouble!" the middle-aged man said quickly.
Ji Que said confusedly: "Then is your shop still for sale?"
"Sell! Sell!"
"How much does it cost?"
Ji Que felt quite happy in his heart, feeling that this annoying problem before could finally be solved.
The middle-aged man looked frightened and said, "Sir, just watch and give it."
Ji Que raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion: "Look at it?"
The middle-aged man looked embarrassed for a moment, and finally said with a bitter look on his face: "Sir, you can do it even if you don't give it."
"Then wouldn't I become a bandit?"
Ji Que slapped his thigh, making the other person tremble in fright.
After that, the problems of the nail households were solved very smoothly, surprisingly smoothly.
Later, he quietly heard rumors about himself in a tea shop, and then gradually came back to his senses.
"Am I that scary? I am forced to cut off people's legs just to get rid of demons."
Ji Que explained to the servant who was following him recently.
"Besides, they also said that I am a lunatic and a pervert. I feel uncomfortable even if I don't shovel someone's legs for a day. This is pure slander!"
For a moment, Ji Que was a little excited.
In the tea shop, someone heard the noise and looked over.
Not long after, the originally lively tea shop suddenly became quiet. Ji Que felt strange. He looked over and found that almost everyone was looking at him nervously. Some even held the child and protected the child's legs.
.
Ji Que felt the need to explain, so he stood up and said, "That..."
"Run!"
I don't know who said something, and the people in the tea shop dispersed in a rush, running faster than rabbits. Some people in the middle hung their pants on the door knocker because they were running too fast.
As a result, Ji Que, a few people, and a pair of trousers hanging there were all that were left in the bustling tea shop.
No, the owner of the tea shop looked at him nervously and fearfully.
Ji Que waved his hand and sighed: "You paid for everyone's tea."
After that, he left.
Ji Que never thought that people here would be so afraid of him, making him look like a gang member.
In fact, in addition to the fact that Ji Que broke many people's legs at that time, it was also because some people spread rumors.
Those who had their legs amputated wanted to get more compensation, so they all made the situation very bad and described Ji Que and Mrs. Zhao as terrifying.
This kind of thing became more and more ridiculous as it spread, which led to Ji Que's reputation as a god and demon in Qingping County.
It can be said that Ji Que's reputation as a leg-breaking madman is much easier to use than the county magistrate.
After all, the power relations here are complicated, and even the county magistrate's management over the years cannot suppress one party.
Of course, except for the unruly leg-breaking maniac like Ji Que.
His reputation makes him a being who dominates the city and makes the little two cry.
Under the requirements of Ji Que, the production and craftsmanship of light and thin socks are getting better.
Now that the goods are available, the next question is how to sell them.
In this northern land, the big city of Tianren City is undoubtedly the best place to sell goods.
Although these knitted socks, which are similar to silk stockings in previous lives, are beautiful, they are still a new thing and it is not easy to push them away.
