Chapter Thirty-One: Xiami County, the Grain Buyer Returns
After having dinner at the county government office, I waited anxiously, even though my brothers were all back.
But Jiang Yang was a little absent-minded about today's report.
First of all, he saw the progress on the river embankment. Wang Tong first reported today's progress. The first batch of tools had been delivered, and many craftsmen also went to look at the reclaimed fields.
We have specially customized farm tools, and everything is going well.
Then Wang Tong started to cry about poverty as usual, but when Jiang Yang asked him how much time he had left to last, Wang Tong hesitated a little.
Jiang Yang naturally understood that this boy didn't want to fight with him because he was afraid that he would spend too much money.
But Jiang Yang was speechless because he always cried about poverty. No wonder all the kings in history did not like the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. Who could bear to cry about poverty every day?
Jiang Yang couldn't help but comforted him for a while, and finally learned from Wang Tong that such a speed of spending money could last for a month.
When the sky was dark, someone came to the door to announce that a man named Tang Yingcai wanted to see the county magistrate.
Coming.
Jiang Yang hurriedly asked someone to invite him in.
When Tang Yingcai came in and saw the crowd of people, he was a little dazed, but Jiang Yang said, "You might as well just say it."
Tang Yingcai then opened his mouth to tell what happened at noon today.
"Sir, you don't know, I made a total of eleven thousand three hundred and twenty-seven taels today!" Tang Yingcai said happily.
The stone in Jiang Yang's heart fell to the ground. He breathed a long sigh of relief and asked, "Why is there more than a thousand taels?"
"Hehe." Tang Yingcai said with a smile: "They grabbed the last jar of wine. In the end, Mr. Zhu was so brave that he took a thousand taels of wine and said he would take it back to his junior sister to taste."
At this point, Tang Yingcai told everyone a piece of gossip with a smile.
Speaking of Mr. Zhu, he was in love with his junior sister. Although this junior sister was born in a poor family, she had an enterprising heart and wanted to study and become a female poet.
However, books in this era were far from what ordinary families could afford, so this person pretended to be close to Mr. Zhu and waited until he got what he wanted, then used the excuse of studying to stay away.
People around me were trying to dissuade her, but Mr. Zhu said that you know something about love.
When Jiang Yang heard this, wasn't this just pure resentment and green tea?
Everyone was so happy to hear this, especially Wang Tong, who rubbed his hands together and looked at Tang Yingcai eagerly, as if wondering where this guy put his money.
In addition to this, Tang Yingcai said that because of the drinks, the inn's income today was several hundred taels of silver, and he brought all of it over.
As he spoke, Tang Yingcai took out two banknotes from his pocket, one for ten thousand taels and one for one thousand taels. The other money was all in his arms.
There is an ingot of gold and broken silver.
Everything was placed on the table next to Jiang Yang.
Jiang Yang calculated in his mind that the ordinary liquor he bought and the wages paid to the workers amounted to only one hundred taels in total.
This is a hundred times the income.
He took out a thousand tael silver note and handed it to Tang Yingcai and said, "This is the money you paid for today's hard work."
"This is impossible." Tang Yingcai hurriedly hid behind him, he knew it in his heart.
It would be good to earn five taels of silver a day from your own inn. The reason why you can earn so much today is entirely because of the drinks provided by Jiang Yang.
The most taboo thing in life is forgetting your roots.
But Jiang Yang doesn't care about this. If he wants the horse to run, he must let the horse eat well. Not only must he be well fed, but he must be well fed.
Thousand taels were directly stuffed into Tang Yingcai's arms and said: "From now on, you have to pay more attention to this wine business. If the daily revenue exceeds 10,000 taels, you will get a commission of one thousand taels."
Tang Yingcai looked at Jiang Yang's serious eyes and nodded, while secretly identifying Jiang Yang in his heart.
Such people can not only share joys and sorrows, but also suffer together.
After settling down Tang Yingcai and telling him to prepare for more drinks tomorrow, contact people in other places, and sell through multiple channels, Jiang Yang let him go back.
After the people left, Jiang Yang looked at Wang Tongtong: "God of Wealth? Are you rich now?"
"Huh~" Wang Tong breathed a long sigh of relief. In fact, he was not worried about anything else, but that there was no way to make money. It was not good to just sit back and have nothing.
How many fools like Wang Yuanwai can there be in Xiami County?
Now that I see Jiang Yang getting rich every day, I naturally have nothing to say.
The two eyes looked directly at the broken silver and banknotes.
Jiang Yang laughed and said, "Take it, what are you waiting for?"
"Hey, hey, your Excellency is right, I'll put it into the account first." Wang Tong said before taking the money and leaving.
But Jiang Yang stopped him and arranged for him to buy two hundred jars of ordinary liquor tonight and deliver it to Liu Shun.
For such a trivial matter, Wang Tong, who already has people on hand, will naturally not do anything wrong.
That night, Jiang Yang had a good sleep. It was the first time since he traveled to this world that he had such a peaceful night.
All the noise seemed to have stopped.
.......
Early the next morning, Jiang Yang was woken up while still sleeping.
There were constant noises and shouts.
The sky is falling?
Jiang Yang had just put on his clothes and was about to go out to take a look, but when he saw Wen Guan, he opened the door in a hurry and rushed in.
"Brother! It's not good! It's not good!" Wen Guan's face turned pale and he shouted: "People are going to die, people are going to die."
dead?
From ancient times to the present, taking someone's life is a big deal. I asked hurriedly: "What is it? Tell me slowly."
"It's Ma Yan and Li You." Wen Guan said quickly: "They were sent back, but they are in danger."
Jiang Yang's expression changed immediately and he ran out quickly.
Sure enough, they saw Ma Yan and Li You leaning on the door frame covered in blood.
"Sir... I feel guilty." Li You looked at Jiang Yang guiltily and said, "Our money has been spent and our food has been robbed."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yang knew that the matter was not that simple, and hurriedly said: "Don't talk yet, it's important to recover from your injuries."
After settling the two of them, Wen Guan was asked to quickly call for a doctor.
There is still a lot of arrangements for the meal. Let Ma Feng go to the river embankment first, and Wang Tong arranges for someone to deliver the wine.
It was noon in the blink of an eye.
There is also good news, that is, the doctor came to see them. Although the injuries of the two people looked serious, they were just flesh injuries and did not damage the roots. They would be healed after being bandaged and recuperated for a period of time.
In the afternoon, Ma Yan woke up leisurely, and Jiang Yang heard him tell about their hardships these past few days.
After they arrived at the county town with their banknotes, they first inquired about local grain prices, and then began negotiations. Not only did they reach a price lower than the market price, but they also signed a contract.
And according to Jiang Yang's instructions, they told the local grain merchants that they could take the opportunity to enter Xiami County and make more money.
When many grain merchants heard that the price of grain in Xiami County was ten times higher, they naturally couldn't sit still and expressed their intention to give up.
