Chapter 61 Let Nature
Wu Qi said he wanted to go to Chenjiazhai for a walk, which was really not a joke.
Shen Lin secretly guessed.
Our seventh master will not really fall in love with the white lady, right?
He made a special trip to meet his father-in-law?
"Lao Qi, your official status is inconvenient, isn't it?"
Wu Qi shrugged his shoulders, looking indifferent.
"He's just a cell leader, it's just a shitty official status!"
"Besides, the people in Beimang Mountain are extremely poor. If the people can't survive and don't rise up, they are honest enough."
"If it were Master Qi, I would have to find a few people who are rich and unkind to take advantage of me."
"Especially for someone like you, the leader of the Shen family. Your money and fertile land are already endless."
"He's so greedy that he even cares about our small business."
"Brother Lin, what is the difference between your second uncle and third uncle's actions and those of bandits?"
Of course there is no difference.
Grab one openly.
One puts on a glamorous coat but secretly carries out ruthless acts.
There is no end to the greed of the human heart.
Ordinary people are only busy with clothes on their backs and food in their mouths.
After they have taken care of food and clothing, they have to consider their house and children.
People from small places want to go to big cities.
Little people want to stand out.
The richer people are, the more they want more.
To put it nicely, this is a positive pursuit.
In the final analysis, it is still a kind of primitive greed.
Some people seek fame, while others seek profit.
A person who has no desires or desires?
Sorry, not really.
Wu Qi wants to go for a walk deep in Beimang Mountain.
In fact, I still plan to do business.
He plans to use Chenjiazhai as a breakthrough point to completely open up the mountain market.
Counting the population of the Eighteen Villages alone, there are more than 10,000 or 20,000.
There are even more scattered small villages.
The total number is no less than any lower or even medium-sized county.
Cloth, farm tools and food are also needed by mountain people.
And their medicinal materials, furs, and various dried fruits can be sold at good prices outside.
High-grade iron ore was discovered in Mangshan Village of the Liang family.
There are no other mineral deposits in the large mountain ranges spanning more than a thousand miles?
The red lady was a little tempted when she heard Wu Qi's plan.
"You said you want to build a market in our Chenjiazhai?"
"But why should we buy farm tools and cloth from you?"
"Can't we directly cooperate with Brother Lin?"
Wu Qi said hurriedly: "No. His family's cloth and farm tools, ah, all the iron products, Master Qi, I underwrite them."
"Brother Lin, you won't sell one thing to two families, right?"
Shen Lin smiled and said: "Wushuang, why do you have to worry about that little price difference?"
"Let Master Qi go to your Chenjiazhai to open a shop. Can't you just collect his rent and taxes?"
"If nothing else, just thirty to one tax, if he has a turnover of thirty thousand taels a year."
"The food problem in your Chenjiazhai has been completely solved."
How much is thirty thousand taels?
In a market with tens of thousands of people, buying and selling is almost an exclusive business.
Chen Wushuang didn't know much about business, but she was proficient in martial arts and robbery.
The education I received since childhood was different.
I saw the fat man nodding his head in agreement.
She became a little suspicious.
"God, with a turnover of thirty thousand taels, we can collect a tax of one thousand taels?"
"Then how much can this guy earn by himself?"
Wu Qi shook his big head and laughed.
"It's definitely not as good as the business in my county. The maximum profit is only four or five thousand taels."
nonsense.
Can the store rent in Chenjiazhai match that of the county town? There are not as many miscellaneous expenses as the county town.
Of course, the freight and labor will definitely cost more.
What about safety?
Wouldn't it be enough to hire a group of Chen family members?
The profit from selling things in the past will definitely be small.
But what I received is cheap enough, if only I could find a few mineral deposits.
That's a big deal that makes you laugh out loud in your dreams.
Shen Lin continued.
"Wushuang, I remember, last time I heard you say that Chenjiazhai is located northwest of Beimang Mountain?"
"Is it very close to Huanglongjiang River?"
"Usually you take the land route but you go in a big circle instead?"
"If we can really cooperate, Lao Qi can buy a few boats. They don't need to be too big, just a few hundred tons!"
"Going eastward along the Huanglong River, you can go directly to Anding County or enter the Lushui River."
Water transportation is the king of this era.
The pitiful transportation capacity of horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts cannot be compared with that of ships.
Moreover, the Huanglong River was patrolled day and night by the navy of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Not to mention water thieves, even the Liao people on the other side had few ships that dared to launch their boats.
Why did they dare to attack Xiongzhou in the lower reaches of the Huanglong River?
The main reason is that the Liao people have large ships that can transport troops to the war.
If Xiongzhou is captured.
Most of the entire Huanglong River defense will definitely be lost.
The shipbuilding industry in Dazhou was relatively developed.
The cost of building a 10,000-dan transport ship is only a little over a thousand taels of silver, and a battleship is of course much more expensive.
Wu Qi wants to buy a ready-made new boat.
Anding Shipyard has it.
The price is not outrageous either.
The carrying capacity is only a few hundred tons.
A ship probably only costs about a hundred taels.
It’s just a reliable boatman, it’s hard to find one.
After some detailed research by Shen Lin.
Wu Qi and Chen Wushuang both felt that there was much to be done.
The Red Lady was originally a fiery person.
That night I got on my horse and ran away with the fat man.
This made Shen Lin depressed for half the night.
Liu Chuer's little head emerged from under the quilt.
"Ms. sir, please hurry up and marry sister Wushuang!"
"I think she still likes you."
What is still?
If she really cared about my feelings, she wouldn't just run away.
Really immature.
Fortunately, our family is provided with good food and drink for the whole day.
She was probably thinking about having a fight with Wu Qi along the way.
Will there be any sparks caused by such nonsense?
Shen Lin was very worried.
He is not familiar with White Snake, and he has no extravagant hope of winning both of her.
But it’s hard to tell for the fat guy.
After getting along with this guy for a long time, I found that he still has many advantages.
Isn’t that an old saying?
Excellent men never care about looks.
It is almost common for beautiful women to marry ugly men.
"Girl, are you so generous? You don't feel any sourness at all?"
Liu Chuer nestled in Shen Lin's arms.
"In the beginning, of course it was a little bit!"
"But in our family, my husband is the only one."
"The greatest thing is the reproduction of offspring and the spread of branches and leaves."
"No matter how big a workshop you open, no matter how nice the yard you live in, or no matter how much money you make, it doesn't matter, right?"
Liu Chuer was squeezed by Shen Lin's big hands and was a little out of breath.
The whole person looked extremely shy.
"It's not possible to continue like this..."
"Besides... Chu'er is satisfied if my husband has me in his heart."
"I'm still a grown-up woman. It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines!"
…
Shen Lin thought silently.
Feudal society is a paradise for men.
Although he has the sweet and cute Liu Chuer.
What else can a woman ask for?
But she is as heroic and beautiful as the Red Lady.
As a man, you can be tempted, right?
Hmm, it seems that we have to work harder and not let the fat guy get the upper hand.
"Okay, go to sleep. Your husband is not greedy, just let nature take its course."
Liu Chuer lay in Shen Lin's arms like a kitten.
Secretly pouting.
Hum hum!
People do this.
Isn’t it just letting nature take its course?
