Chapter 1736: Once you enter the Hou family, its as deep as the sea (60)
Those people had lived in Northern Xinjiang for nearly two months. It was the first time that Beicheng people knew that as long as they had ideas and skills, they could make a lot of money.
Two months later, this group of people left with a cauldron that Jin Qing had specially built for their master.
This is a cauldron with temperament. It is strong, strong and sharp.
Apart from not being able to cook, it has almost no disadvantages because it is fireproof
But just such a pot was happily carried away by the person who made it.
At the beginning, everyone thought that this person might have been temporarily deceived, and when they realized what was happening, they would definitely return to Northern Xinjiang to settle the score with the weapons master of the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion.
Because they have all heard that this family runs a restaurant in the capital.
But until their hair turned gray, they didn't see this family falling out with Jin Qing.
Instead, someone from this family will come to Northern Xinjiang every two years. While tasting the delicacies of Northern Xinjiang, they will also send greetings to the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion, claiming that they want to ask for another weapon. ??
Their behavior left everyone puzzled.
It wasn't until later, when someone brave enough to ask, that he found out that there was another peculiarity about this cauldron, that is, it could float on the water.
The man who customized the large pot originally wanted to build a cooking tool for himself, but after getting the pot, he was indeed deeply hurt.
But when he thought that the weapons manufacturer was backed by the vassal king of Northern Xinjiang, the man could only grit his teeth and admit that he was unlucky. He just gave the pot to his father-in-law as a protective treasure.
My father-in-law was in charge of maritime affairs and would often take people out to sea to communicate with people from other countries.
When the father-in-law got the pot that couldn't be used for cooking, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But thinking that this was my uncle's wish after all, he kept the pot by his side at all times.
Although the errand on the sea is dangerous,
But it is also a good position, because they can carry different goods between countries, and naturally they can make a lot of money.
What the father-in-law thought was that if this pot was taken out in China, it would definitely become the laughing stock of everyone. Therefore, he wanted to take the pot overseas. If someone took a fancy to this strange thing, he could help his son-in-law stop the loss.
It's a pity that this pot has been kept at his place for two years, and no one will buy this strange pot.
Just when the father-in-law was thinking about whether to throw away this strange pot and use his own money to coax his uncle, an accident happened.
Anyone who runs on the sea is rewarded by God.
Just two years later, they encountered a strong storm on their way back from a boat trip to deliver gifts to neighboring countries.
The boat capsized and the things in the cabin fell everywhere. The father-in-law was hit several times by the things scattered in the cabin.
Or should he die? Just when he was feeling groggy, his hand grabbed the ear of the iron pot.
As a large amount of seawater rushed into the cabin, the iron pot that had seen the water dragged the man's father-in-law straight out of the sea as if it had been given blood.
Since the spatula was always attached to the iron pot by a small mechanism, the man's father-in-law successfully used the pot as a boat, used the shovel as an oar, and sat in the pot. In this way, he found a merchant ship that could seek help.
That man was originally an official who liked to exaggerate the facts. After he was rescued, he even boasted about his journey and even added a storyline of fighting with fish.
Everyone saw that he was able to escape death, and the pot and spatula looked really majestic, so they began to believe him.
one piece
The key to whether a weapon is useful is whether it can be placed in the hands of the right person.
After this incident, the weapons made by Jin Qing were touted as even more legendary, but this is a story for another day.
At this time? The group of pot buyers had just left Beicheng.
After they left, another group of people still lived in Beicheng? There was another group of people on their way to Beicheng.
The purpose of everyone is obvious? They must have what others have, otherwise wouldn't they lose face? They are just like a dwarf.
Jin Qing releases one weapon every quarter and two customized products every year? Even if they can't get the customized products, they must still fight for one weapon every quarter.
There are also some people who come here specifically to watch the excitement, or to find opportunities to get acquainted with Jin Qing, the "intangible cultural heritage of Huaiyin Marquis Mansion"
Because everyone has this mentality, more and more people come to northern Xinjiang.
Seeing that Beicheng was becoming more and more popular, Lan Ruyu asked King Tao to introduce some exotic buildings, slaves, and costumes to the three cities under his jurisdiction, so that these people could have fun in Northern Xinjiang while waiting for weapons.
Happy to miss Shu.
As time went by, these northern Xinjiang people actually figured out their own business skills.
In less than two years, a sheep that originally cost two hundred taels of silver has become one tael of silver.
However, this additional service is also excellent. When you buy a sheep, the seller not only cleans the sheep on the spot, but also makes a roasted whole sheep according to the customer's taste. The sheep bones and heads are stewed in soup, with water, sauce or stew, and you can eat it.
That freshness
Lan Ruyu is a real fantastic thinker.
The wind and sand in northern Xinjiang were very strong, so she asked King Yi to allocate 300,000 taels of silver to Jin Qing, and begged Jin Qing to make a bird that could walk on the sand.
For sailing boats, the driver can adjust the direction of the boat according to the wind direction.
A boat traveling on dry land is a big gimmick in itself.
Coupled with the price of one hundred taels of silver to experience it, the style of the boat immediately improved, and it became one of the must-do activities in Beicheng.
These young men who came to Northern Xinjiang originally only bought expensive ones, not the right ones, just to find something they could brag about to others, so that they could stand out in front of everyone.
At this time, the dry land sailing boat designed by Lan Ruyu immediately became the object of their efforts to praise.
When he first started spending money, King Tao beat his chest in pain. He originally thought that the money would just fall into his hands.
But the facts proved Lan Ruyu's wisdom and King Tan's stupidity. In just seven days, the sailboat became the most popular project in Beicheng.
People waiting to board the ship have been waiting for half a month to go.
The boys responsible for pulling the sails and steering the helm had their shoulders slumped, but everyone was in high spirits.
Seeing their bulging wallets filled with reward money, it is not difficult to guess where their motivation comes from.
After one month, the dry land sailing ship actually made a full 60,000 taels of silver, and there is a steady upward trend.
The windy and sandy days in the North have also become everyone's thoughts. After all, the stronger the wind, the faster the sailboat will run. The excitement of chasing the wind can really make people forget all the worries in their hearts.
Since there was no queue for a long time, some people had begun to discuss with the steward of the sailboat to add another sailboat or let them join the queue.
Even the magistrates of Maocheng and Jicheng shamelessly relied on King Yi, claiming that King Yi could not favor one over the other. Their two cities had more areas suitable for dry land boating, and begged King Yi to find a way out for them.
