Shen Wuwan was very surprised, why didn't the leader of Mazhai even know what Huizi was? But he soon felt relieved. After all, he was just a big boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, and he grew up in the mountains. What could he know? .
But he was also confused. According to Qi Nanyue, green fragrant tea and red rhyme tea were both created by this fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old village leader. This kind of tea is unique. How did he know these things? What about?
No matter what, when Ma Hanshan asked, he could only explain.
The Huizi in this world are different from the Huizi issued by the Song Dynasty in another time and space. The Huizi issued by the Song Dynasty were actually the most primitive banknotes and were abolished as soon as they were introduced. But the Huizi here are more like the previous life of Ma Hanshan An acceptance bill. However, this bill requires a designated person to go to a designated place to exchange money. It is safe and secure, but more troublesome. The bank check is like the cash check of Ma Hanshan's previous life. It does not look at the person, only the ticket. If there is a check, Instant payment is much more convenient than Huizi.
After listening to Shen Wuwan's explanation, Ma Hanshan thought for a moment and said, "Boss Shen, can I add another payment method?"
"Oh...of course...you say." Shen Wuwan said.
"Can I ask for part of the real thing?" Ma Hanshan thought for a moment and said, "I want the best gunpowder, brown rice, yellow rice, millet, wheat, oh, shelled wheat seeds. Give me a few stones..." Ma Hanshan thought. There are many things to buy, the three most important ones are gunpowder, grain and iron ingots.
Of course he bought these things to build weapons, produce new products and fill his stomach. He originally wanted to smelt iron in Wagang Village, but thinking about the traffic in Wagang Village, he had to give up and buy iron ingots for the time being.
"Master Mazhai, you bought so many things? Some things seem to be of no use to your village." Shen Wuwan was like the people in Wagang Village, and he began to understand Master Ma more and more.
"Haha, Boss Shen, how do you know it's useless? Oh... I also want coke, first-grade coke, is it available? It's fine without coking coal..." Ma Hanshan really doesn't know if people in this world have mastered coking technology. .
"Master Mazhai, there is coke. May I ask Master Mazhai if buying coke is for making iron? If it is for making iron? Wouldn't it be better to buy iron directly?" Shen Wuwan said in confusion.
"I have to buy iron, copper, and coke. Boss Shen just needs to quote Mr. Qi according to my order." Of course, Ma Hanshan knew that he could buy good iron outside, but what he bought was just iron ingots, not making iron devices. Want more coke?
Ma Hanshan suddenly thought that making iron by hand was always inefficient and of poor quality. If he got a few punch machines...this thing could also be used to make iron. The punch machines he saw in his previous life were all electric, but in this world...he thought it could be done. Take advantage of the fast flowing river next to Wagonzhai.
He has entered trance again. Qi Nanyue recently discovered that his student, the village leader, often falls into a daze like an old monk who has entered trance.
You can't blame Ma Hanshan. There were too many things that he had to try to remember what he had seen and learned in his previous life. Whenever this happened, he would be fixed on that spot as if his soul had left the body.
"Master of Mazhai... Master of Mazhai... uh... Brother Qi, Master of Mazhai, he...?" The people in Wagang Village had seen the village master enter meditation many times, so they were not surprised, but this was the first time Shen Wuwan saw it. Very surprised.
"Oh, the village leader must be thinking about something again... He always thinks like this." Qi Nanyue gently shook Ma Hanshan's hand and shouted, "The village master... the village master... Shopkeeper Shen is talking to you."
He was really impressed. No matter the time or place, as long as he thought about important things, he could "enter concentration".
"Ah... what's the matter, Mr. Qi?" Ma Hanshan came back to his senses and asked.
"Mazhai Master, what are you doing... How about we talk about this after drinking, why don't we drink now... Ah, Mazhai Master is not an adult yet, is he..." In this era, fifteen is considered an adult. , there are many people who get married at the age of fifteen, but Ma Hanshan looks like a big kid, and he is not yet an adult even if you ask.
It's not that good to drink when you're underage.
"Ah, shopkeeper Shen, you don't know, bandits start drinking at the age of three. I'm almost fifteen, so of course I have to drink." Ma Hanshan really doesn't like drinking wine from this world, it's turbid and tastes bland.
There are two kinds of wine here, one is wine made from grain, with a slightly higher alcohol content, and the other is fruit wine, with an alcohol content of about ten degrees, which is no different from sugar water. The terrible thing is that people in this world are very good at reciting poetry. It's great, but it can't make the turbid wine clear.
The reason why he was willing to drink with Shen Wuwan was just to bring up the next topic.
"Okay, Master Ma is so brave. We won't get drunk tonight or come back." Shen Wuwan personally poured wine for Ma Hanshan and said loudly.
"Okay, but it's a pity that you won't get drunk after drinking these wines as light as water until dawn." Ma Hanshan said disapprovingly, "Boss Shen, you have traveled all over the country and have experienced a lot. Have you ever drunk something that is clearer than water, but yet you are so drunk?" Very strong wine?”
"Very strong wine? I used to drink a very strong wine in Daxing Mansion. The name of the wine is also very interesting, called Xifeng wine." Shen Wuwan thought for a moment and said.
"Ah? How strong is it? Can it be ignited? Also, is the wine clear?" Ma Hanshan felt cold when he heard this. Damn it, does anyone know how to steam wine? It's impossible.
"Of course it can't be ignited. How can there be any flammable wine? Do you dare to drink such wine? The color of the wine... is actually clearer than the Jing wine we are drinking now." Shen Wuwan pointed to the wine in the cup and said.
Xifeng wine is actually sorghum wine, while Jing wine is a kind of rice wine produced in Jiangling Prefecture. It is the best wine in Jingxiang.
"Haha, if you haven't drunk it, of course you think you can't drink wine that can ignite. After you drink it, you will say that it is really powerful and very heroic. After drinking that kind of wine, you will no longer be willing to drink this kind of wine. Rice soup wine." Yes, the wine here is as turbid as rice soup, so Ma Hanshan calls the wine here rice soup wine.
"Haha, I don't believe there is such a wine. If it does exist, it will definitely be a big seller. There are so many people in the capital who are all obsessed with wine." Shen Wuwan is indeed a businessman, and he actually thought of buying and selling.
"If there is one, how much can it be sold for? Let me tell you, that kind of wine is not only strong, the lowest alcohol content is higher than this kind of wine, but also fragrant, very fragrant, and most importantly, it is also clear, very transparent, well, it is also If something is mellow, don't think that strong liquor is not mellow, that's because you haven't seen it..." Ma Hanshan described to Shen Wuwan the various liquors in his memory.
"If there is such a wine, I guess I can sell it for one tael of silver." Shen Wuwan said.
"One tael of silver? Are you kidding me? Such a good wine only costs one tael of silver? The rice soup wine I drink now costs several hundred taels of silver per catty." One tael of silver? It's too cheap, there is no profit.
Three kilograms of grain and one kilogram of wine, even if it is very poor, four kilograms of grain and one kilogram of wine, based on the price of brown rice, the material cost is only 200 wen, plus manual transportation and so on, it will never exceed 400 wen. So, If one tael of silver is delivered, it should be considered a good profit.
However, Ma Hanshan feels that this is unique and it is not worth pursuing if the profit is not several times higher.
"Haha, no one has seen what kind of wine that is. I just made a random estimate." Shen Wuwan felt that there was no such thing as wine, so he just said it casually.
"Okay, you've never seen such wine, so have you ever drank beer?" Ma Hanshan also plans to "research and develop" beer, because he has never seen how to brew beer, so he can only say that he has tried it. He also has An idea, if there is soda, is it possible to launch a soda?
"Beer? I've never heard of it." Shen Wuwan felt that there was something wrong with this big kid's brain. How come he hadn't heard anything he said? How could he have wine that he hadn't seen before after traveling around for twenty or thirty years?
"Beer is just ale. Well, the intensity is about the same as today's fruit wine, but the taste is completely different, and it's a little gassy. How to describe this taste... It's really hard to describe. By the way, baking soda? Is there any?" Ma Hanshan said casually.
Shen Wuwan shook his head and said he had never heard of it.
In fact, baking soda is not difficult to obtain, but Mahan Shanshan has hated chemistry all his life, so he cannot remember how to make baking soda from trona salt and lime. Compared to those who can easily make soap and other chemical products, He is a failed time traveler.
"Okay, pretend I didn't ask, come on, have a drink." Ma Hanshan raised his glass and said.
He knows that in this world, even if there is a new technology or new product in a certain place, it may take several years or even longer to promote it, because transportation restricts the exchange of information, and corrupt Confucianism restricts innovation. Therefore, there may be small You may not know if Soda sinks 50,000 yuan.
Alas, take your time. Let's make some wine, perfume and potions first to make money.
"Boss Shen, if I have a medicated oil, do you know what it is? If I have a medicated oil, it can treat mosquito bites, itchy skin or mild burns, as well as colds, stuffy nose, runny nose, dizziness and headaches. Medicinal oil. Do you think people will accept it?"
"Or there is a medicated oil that can treat bruises, sprains, knife wounds, and burns. This medicated oil can stop bleeding, relieve pain, reduce inflammation, promote muscle growth, reduce swelling, remove blood stasis, relax muscles, and activate muscles. Do you think it will sell well?" As for the production of cooling oil? , medicated oils such as ten thousand flower oil are not difficult for Ma Hanshan, who grew up in a medical family.
In order to make money and build Wagang Village into a paradise, Ma Hanshan worked hard. He had to pick up the medical science and pharmacology he had heard about when he was a child.
"What are you talking about? Do you really have such a thing? If there is such a thing, it must be sought after by many people. Do you know that in the southwestern states, people are miserable about the harm caused by mosquitoes. Maybe you don't believe me, but I am I once conquered the Jiaozhi Rebellion, but failed because the army officers could not stand the mosquitoes in the jungle. If there is such a useful medicinal oil, I dare to underwrite it for you." Shen Wuwan finally became interested, but his heart became more and more complicated. It becomes more and more strange, what kind of monster is this big boy village leader? How can he understand this?
"Ah? That's great. By the way, there is also a very awesome medicine called Peach Blossom Powder. It not only has miraculous effects on stopping bleeding, but also has curative effect even if the wound becomes suppurated. Small wounds can be healed in one night. ...." Ma Hanshan was happy, and what he said constantly refreshed the understanding of Shen Wuwan and others.
However, Shen Wuwan doesn't understand what awesome means.
