Back in Liangjia Village, Liang Zijun was dragged back to the Liang family's mansion by Chen Qing with his head bowed.

Shao Fengzhi was a little surprised to see Chen Qing stepping into the house with crooked eyebrows, and then looked at his third brother's rooster that seemed to be defeated, and he didn't have to think about it to know that Chen Qing must have picked it up.

Patting the ashes on his hands, Shao Fengzhi didn't bother to care about the affairs of other people's yards, anyway, the little couple didn't care who had the upper hand, as long as they lived a good life. The overlord Liang Zijun was actually planted in Chen Qing's hands, and he didn't even think about it.

"That's all, it's all here" Liang Zijun handed over all the silver with a painful face, I am afraid that if I want to spend money in the future, I am afraid that I will have to find another way, just like Chen Qing's wealth fan, I am afraid that if I spend more money, I will have to carry his ears and talk for a long time.

Chen Qing raised his eyebrows, and opened a wooden box casually, this place where the money is hidden is quite secret, if it weren't for Liang Zijun to take it out, Chen Qing would not have thought that there was a hidden grid behind the calligraphy and painting, most of the farmers dug a hole or hid it in a clay pot, and few bothered to make a dark grid.

"The 300 taels in this box are the household used by the long house to each house" The Liang family's fields are all taken care of by the long house, and now it is inherited by Liang Zixian, the eldest son of the long house. The rest of the houses will live in a part of the silver every year, and have no right to control the land deed.

But only dividends every year, each family also has a quota of 300 taels, which can be said to be enough amazing wealth in the countryside, even in the county, ordinary merchants may not be able to earn 300 taels a year.

The Liang family has so much land that they can get a net of 2,500 taels just by collecting rent for a year, and Liang Zijun is from a talented background, so he can be exempted from some miscellaneous taxes such as Ding tax, land tax, and household tax. And the Liang family did not make any private income from this exempted tax, but returned this land tax to the peasant households, so that the Liang family would collect 10% less rent than other landlords' families.

(Roughly calculate 2,500 taels of rent is 5,000 acres of land, divided by 15 equals 333 acres of land)

(1 land = 15 acres)

In addition to the allotment of each family, the remaining silver every year will be used to buy idle land, so the Liang family's field will increase every year.

Liang Zijun is married before he can start a household, and the 300 taels don't seem to be much in his eyes, but it is not money that can be spent. started a business at the age of 14, except for the silver that he asked for from his father and mother at the beginning, all the rest of the expenses were earned by Liang Zijun himself. Liang Ji Cloth Workshop has become more and more profitable in the past two years, if it weren't for this, Liang Zijun would not dare to throw a thousand eight hundred taels casually.

Chen Qing liquidated the account books of Liang Ji Cloth Workshop and found that the profit was mediocre in the first two years, and from the third year, a large amount of silver began to come in, and the profit could reach as much as 10,000 taels a year. In the past two years, the profit has almost increased tenfold, and it can earn 100,000 taels of silver a year.

Chen Qing's eyes widened, and he said without praise, "You can really make money~"

Liang Zijun snorted and said, "Do you think that Ye is such a incompetent person? Now you should admit that Ye is not a loser who only asks for money from his family."

"I misunderstood you before, but you're still a loser!

"Chen Qing counted the silver tickets in another wooden box, and counted them with a painful face, this guy made so much money, but he only saved a mere 100,000 taels, and more than half of the silver was spent by him. How can Chen Qing, who is used to saving money desperately, not feel pain?

Liang Zijun touched his nose and defended: "Can I be Hu Hua? Where do you need to do business in the county? If you want to get some way, you have to spend a lot of money, you really have nothing to do, drink and chat with those rich sons every day?"

Chen Qing nodded, it is indeed the case, business interpersonal relations are a very important part, "Then save a little money, I couldn't control it before, from now on, I am not allowed to spend money lavishly, money has to be spent on the blade, do you hear?"

Liang Zijun nodded helplessly, thanks to his hand, there are still tens of thousands of taels of turnover in the cloth shop, if this money is also controlled by Chen Qing, then he really can't live this life. Let people know that he Liang Sanye has to ask his daughter-in-law for spending money, so where will he put his face?

secretly regretted that he was cheap, but seeing that Chen Qing looked satisfied at the moment, he felt that there was nothing wrong with this. The husband should make money outside to support the family, and then hand it over to the daughter-in-law for safekeeping. It's just that this small treasury still has to be kept, otherwise he won't allow this or that, and he will be completely embarrassed.

Fortunately, Chen Qing is also an interesting person, he doesn't interfere in the things in the shop, but he will kill the money he takes home, and Ren Liang Zijun is only willing to give 100 taels of pocket money a month.

"This is not enough for the ...... of the next restaurant," Liang Zijun wanted to cry and stared at the broken silver in his hand without tears.

"What are you talking about? It costs 100 taels to go down to the restaurant?" Chen Qing's eyes widened, and he couldn't see through the silver.

Liang Zijun immediately changed his words and said that it was a restaurant every day, looking at Chen Qing's face that he couldn't swallow his posture alive, he had better think of another way to make money.

"Why do you go to the restaurant every day, there is a shortage of food for you at home?............" Chen Qing immediately hugged the money box, with a miser look on his face, and crackling beans in his mouth, he generally taught Liang Zijun to learn to live.

Listening to his daughter-in-law's broken thoughts is also a very new thing, even if Chen Qing is a little childish, Liang Zijun is not bored, but thinks that he is a good housekeeper, and his stingy appearance is quite cute.

Early the next morning, Liang Zijun was kicked out of the house by Chen Qing to get the gambling money he won. Pinching the one or two gambling tickets, Liang Zijun couldn't help but think bitterly, anyway, the Liang family has always been a daughter-in-law and a man, and he is not the first to be cowardly.

Liang Ji Cloth Workshop began to receive orders for miscellaneous pheasants on the 15th day, and the stiff face of the shopkeeper of Wanda once again testified to the customer's words "It is a pheasant fighting ......"

"It's okay to call it anything, anyway, give me a copy of Liang Sanye's style, and sew it exactly the same!" After speaking, he took out a 50 taels silver ticket painfully. Damn, do you want it to be so dark? The clothes are also divided into three or six grades, and the same high-grade embroiderer costs 80 taels a piece.

"You can rest assured, it is absolutely the same, this style of shirt is only pre-sold in our store 15 pieces, your silver will not be spent in vain" Wan Da shopkeeper smiled and accepted the silver ticket, personally sent the distinguished guests out of the store.

"You go well......," the shopkeeper arched his hand, and then straightened up and sighed. Suddenly, I saw a person walking on the side of the street, and hurriedly yelled, "Third master, this way~"

The shopkeeper of Wanda has always been steady, but at this time, Liang Zijun was quite surprised by his eager appearance, and said with a playful smile, "Morning, shopkeeper Wan, why do you miss me so much after only a day?"

"Don't talk nonsense, come in with me to talk......" Wan Da shopkeeper smiled on his face, but the latter sentence was said very quietly.

The two of them greeted each other and let in, and the guys in the house greeted each other with smiles, "The third master is here~"

went up to the second floor, and the shopkeeper said that he was embarrassed...... It has been as instructed by you to raise the price as much as possible to avoid too many customizations of the same clothes, and only 5 pieces are sold every third class, but there are always additional orders. You say that these are all old customers, and it is not appropriate to offend anyone. Last night, the clothes were sent to let the embroidery girl copy it overnight, but the lady embroidered it too realistically, and it showed that the embroidery girl's craftsmanship was clumsy, even if it was embroidered, it was only in vain, especially the feather was the most difficult to embroider. ”

"How many pieces did you pick up?" Liang Zijun frowned, he didn't want Chen Qing to embroider clothes for others, but this signboard couldn't be smashed.

"I have already received 6 pieces, this middle and inferior is so foolish, and if the embroidery is not good, it can also shirk the past, but this is really not easy to do...... Otherwise, let's ask the lady to make a move" The shopkeeper of Wanda discussed, the owner has always been the same, especially when it comes to the family, which gentleman does not want his daughter-in-law to make clothes for other masters. But the cloth workshop relies on craftsmanship and integrity, and it can't smash its own signboard, right?

Liang Zijun waved his hand and secretly considered it...... Even if he was asked to embroider, these 6 pieces were too much, and the construction period was too long, and the customers did not have the patience to wait. Liang Zijun rubbed the corners of his forehead, it seems that next time he will embroider a few more pieces in advance, so as to leave some surplus for turnover.

"In fact, the difference is still in the pheasant behind it, why don't you let Mrs. only be responsible for embroidering the picture, and leave the rest of the corner work to the embroiderer?"

"But in this way, isn't the difference in embroidery skills more obvious?" Liang Zijun pondered the feasibility.

"It's not that there is no way to solve it, it depends on the meaning of the owner. If you are willing to point out one or two, even if there is a difference, you can't tell it without looking closely. I chose all the embroidery girls who signed the death contract, as long as the key stitches are not handed down, there is no need to be afraid of being leaked" Wan Da shopkeeper looked at the owner with hot eyes, this method he has long wanted to implement, this is a good opportunity at this moment.

Liang Zijun chuckled, pointed in his direction and scolded with a smile, "You're ready to drill for me early in the morning......, right? But I have to go back and ask, even the husband can't force him to hand over this craft, right?"

"It's good if you are considerate" The shopkeeper took a deep breath and explained helplessly, "I was also forced to have no way, and for the sake of the livelihood of the store, the long-term plan is to improve the craftsmanship of the middle and upper class embroiderers."

Of course, Liang Zijun knows what is at stake, but the difficulty is that most of the craftsmanship is in the hands of individuals. The embroidery lady will not hand over the stitch method, unless the life cannot go on, she will sign a death contract with the cloth workshop.

(The death deed means that the embroiderer sells the embroidery method to the cloth mill, and even the immediate family members cannot teach it.) It is necessary to take over the work according to the requirements of the cloth workshop, and the embroidery method learned from the cloth workshop shall not be leaked privately)

Most of the people who rely on craftsmanship to eat are self-cherishing, which inevitably limits the output, even if the price of a single product can be increased, but it is only a small profit if it cannot be expanded and sold to make more. If you want to expand production, you must improve the level of embroidery as a whole.

However, the risk of overall improvement is very high, and once the embroiderer misses the embroidery method, it is bound to cause irreparable losses to the store. It was Liang Zijun who knew that this method was acceptable, but he didn't want to do it.

Liang Zijun pretended to have something in his heart, so he lost the mind of wandering, went to the tavern to receive the silver, and hurriedly prepared to return home. When passing by Wanle Zhai, he happened to be blocked by Liao Fanzhi, so he had to hand over the horse to the man and send him to the backyard to settle down, and he went up to the second floor with Liao Fanzhi full of concern.

"You're too boring, don't say anything about the jackpot with us in advance, and miss an opportunity to make money. Li Shoucai was the first to complain.

"How much did you win? Hurry up and hand it over" Liao Fanzhi wrapped his arms around Liang Zijun's waist from behind, and the two of them searched for the silver from their arms together.

Holding a bag of broken silver, Liao Fanzhi squinted at him, "Where is the silver ticket?"

Liang Zijun tidied up his clothes and sat down in the chair with a bored face, "Aren't all the silver tickets as yours?"

Liao Fanzhi shouted in disbelief, "I don't believe it!" Obviously, someone on the side of the pantou bet 10,000 taels to bet on you to win, who else can you win? After winning 90,000 taels, you are still so stingy, but you just want to be a little happy, do you want to be happy?"

Li Shoucai frowned, Liang Zijun is used to being a master who disdains money, and he will not lie about this matter.

Liang Zijun also frowned secretly, "I should still be under you? If it weren't for you and me, who else would be so generous?"

"How do I know? I know it's going to be too late, the gambling houses are closed, where can I bet on? Besides, we can always be together in the future," Liao Fanzhi screamed. If he came in time, he would have to fly over to the next eighteen thousand taels.

"Huh...... It seems that there is something else in this matter," Li Shoucai smiled deeply.

Liang Zijun wants to compete for the jackpot no one knows except Liao Fanzhi, although Chen Qing bet one or two, but he doesn't believe that he can win at all, and it's too late to hide his identity, so naturally he won't leak the news.

So where did this bettor get the news? Just by the one or two bets on the head of the plate, he dared to bet on him to win, who would believe it? Moreover, Liang Zijun had never won the jackpot in previous years, so if this person was not completely sure, how could he dare to hang his net worth and life on him? Even if he had money, he would not take 10,000 taels to play with water.

The three of them secretly struggled for a long time, and in the end, they had to attribute it to the help of nobles on the side of Pantou.

This game of chess is very good, except for Liang Zijun, there are only a few winners, and most of them play casually, and the stakes are not big. The gambling house can even be said to be big and small, and all the gambling money in the county has flowed into the gambling house, and the three people present are all tongue-smacking.

"I'm afraid I have to make tens of millions of taels...... This game is a little bigger," Liao Fanzhi nodded on the table and looked at the two friends.

"The person who bets on this bet is the master behind the gambling house, otherwise the odds will not be as high as nine to one" Liang Zijun is sure.

"Well, it can be regarded as a little sweetness for the masters, after all, a hard work always has to be a win-win situation to save face," Li Shoucai said with a smile on his palms.

"I'd like to see such a master for a while," Liao Fanzhi squinted his eyes and raised his cheeks, looking calculating.

"Beware of stealing chickens and rice, this person is a little scheming" Liang Zijun reminded, too lazy to calculate with them, anyway, what should have been earned has already been earned, cushioning 9 taels of silver, Liang Zijun pursed his lips and chuckled, and strode out of the box.

"Tsk, it's really lustful, I don't mind being calculated, is this still the Liang Zijun I know?" Liao Fanzhi shouted in disbelief as he pointed to the door.
