Chapter 513 Only by drinking can you do great things!
"I'll give you five thousand taels and give me ten altars!"
"I will pay five thousand five hundred taels!"
"I'll pay six thousand taels!"
"Wang Laoer, you are competing with me, right?"
"I am six thousand five hundred taels!"
"Hey, grandma's bear Zhang Laosan, when I am making money, you are still wearing crotchless pants and living in the mud, fighting with me?"
"Seven thousand taels!"
…
Lao He watched the two people arguing in stunned silence, and he raised the price to 8,000 taels and bought ten jars of wine.
The price of a jar of wine turned out to be eight hundred taels.
Lao He felt a huge pain in his heart.
Are these people so rich?
Mudd, money is no longer considered money, right?
How about playing?
Lao He couldn't believe his ears. Even when the Zhang family was at its peak, they were not wealthy enough to spend eight thousand taels of silver on ten jars of wine.
Lao He didn't know what to say.
"Go on..."
Lao He said weakly.
Three views have been completely subverted.
…
At this time, in the backyard, Zhang Bao and Li Daniu were also exhausted.
In this transaction, every transaction is a pile of money, with one hand paying the money and the other hand delivering the goods.
Move the wine out first, and then come back with the money.
To be honest, these few thousand taels of silver are much heavier than ten jars of wine.
At the beginning, Li Daniu's eyes were shining, and he held the money carefully, for fear of knocking it, but after a few trips he was exhausted.
When he got to the back, he simply threw the money over the courtyard wall as if it were a stone.
The three dolls from the Li family were picked up and placed.
The sound of banging on the table could be heard inside the house, and the auction was in full swing, like a war.
Finally, before dark, the auction ended successfully.
In this auction, the highest price was suddenly called one thousand five hundred taels per jar of wine.
On the other hand, the Kong family that originally bought it for 500 taels turned out to be the lowest price.
When Lao He came to the backyard and saw the mountains of silver piled up like a hill, he was so excited that his jaw dropped...
This auction is not so much about wine as it is about face and vanity.
Even Zhang Bao did not expect this result.
What's more, I didn't expect that under Lao He's mishandling, the estimated price would be increased by more than ten times.
"Uncle He, I'm willing to admit defeat. Are you going to quit drinking?"
Zhang Bao said to Lao He with a smile.
"Quit drinking?"
"Why did you become a quitter?"
"Didn't you say you only have one drink a day?"
Lao He was stunned when he heard this.
"Only one drink a day is based on the standard of one hundred taels of silver."
"Who knew that you directly raised the reserve price to five hundred taels without asking for permission?"
"Then our previous conditions will naturally be increased accordingly!"
Zhang Bao said very simply.
"You kid is cheating!"
"I'm giving it all!"
"How can this person live without alcohol?"
"Look at the stories you told me before. If Zhu Bajie didn't drink, could he tease Chang'e? If Sun Wukong didn't drink, could he cause a peach festival? If Wu Song didn't drink, could he go up the mountain to fight tigers?"
"Only by drinking can you do great things!"
"I'm giving it all!"
Lao He said decisively.
Zhang Bao was dumbfounded.
"Uncle He, are you kidding me?"
"You said it yourself before, if anyone cheats after losing a bet, he is a dog, and he has to run naked around Sanhe County ten times. Are you planning to..."
Zhang Bao asked in disbelief.
"Man, you should do what you say!"
"I'm just an old dog, what's wrong? You bit me!"
"Woof woof woof!"
Lao He shouted and entered the house carrying a jar of wine.
Zhang Bao was dumbfounded.
Waited until midnight.
The soldiers guarding the city discovered a scene that they could not believe.
An old man who was naked ran naked in the middle of the night and ran around the city wall ten times!
I'm a good boy, what's wrong with this world?
Staying up most of the night, is this cultivating immortality?
The soldiers guarding the city suspected that someone was alive...
…
After getting the money, Zhang Bao was not idle. He immediately arranged to start construction work and repair roads throughout Hezhou.
Nowadays, the roads in Hezhou have almost no standard. Even the official roads are gradually paved out because more people use them.
But the road conditions in many places are very bad.
If you want to be rich, build roads first.
According to Zhang Bao's idea, once this road is built, not only can the trade flow in various places be opened, but more importantly, it will be easier to mobilize troops in Hezhou.
In addition to building roads, Zhang Bao also vigorously developed animal husbandry and breeding industries in Heyang County.
Hayang County is very mountainous.
The lives of the people near the mountains are the poorest.
If you rely on mountains, you can eat mountains; if you rely on water, you can eat water.
The area of arable land is small, so they can barely make ends meet by cutting firewood and hunting.
Zhang Bao asked the people near the mountain to enclose a part of the area and raise pigs and chickens freely on the mountain.
As for the wolves, foxes and tigers on the mountain, they are like animals.
Under Zhang Bao's high price purchase, it became extinct in a short time.
With this kind of wild environment, it will not put too much burden on farmers.
Moreover, Zhang Bao exempted and exempted the contracting fees for this kind of forest in the first year, and only started charging in the second year.
Although this method does not comply with the current laws of Daxia, Zhang Bao is now the governor of Hezhou, so naturally no one can control him.
With pigs, there is meat, and there is a lot of pig manure, which can be used as fertilizer, and the land can be fertilized for farming.
With chickens, there are eggs, and if the number of chickens increases, the scale will also increase. Many people in the mountains have become rich by relying on these methods.
After this model was implemented, Zhang Bao continued to promote it in several other counties.
A steady stream of fine wine was sent out from Lao He, and then the people in each county organized the auction.
The money from the auction is used for local recruitment and development in various aspects.
Not long after, all the local tyrants, squires, and aristocratic landowners in Hezhou were bloodied by Zhang Bao, and then the money flowed into the hands of ordinary people.
Then if those people gather them together through means, Zhang Bao can do it again.
Under this cycle, people in every step of the process are constantly getting rich.
…
The Zheng family at this time.
Zheng Kongliang, the head of the Zheng family, was tasting the fine wine sent from Heyang County.
As expected, it is very different from the usual wine.
It's really strange. They don't have the conditions to brew wine in Sanhe County. How do they make these wines?
Zheng Kongliang was very confused.
But the more doubtful you are, the more at ease you feel.
The more secrets Zhang Bao has and the more elusive they are, the more beneficial it will be for the Zheng family.
