Chapter 153: Lu's Qianzhuang
At the main altar of the Holy Sect, Yang Zhuo listened to Li'er's words and said goodbye to Fang Jian, the leader of the Holy Sect, Fang Jian naturally refused to let Yang Zhuo leave, when he learned that Yang Zhuo said that there were three other beads, otherwise the poison on his body could not be solved, Fang Jian reluctantly let Yang Zhuo go, because he knew that some things depended on some chance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Moreover, he can no longer see through his son's cultivation, which shows that these beads are very important to his son, so not long after Yang Zhuo's farewell, Fang Jian also set off.
Fang Jian was already ashamed of his son, and thought that his son's poison was in the endless forest. Moreover, although the boy did not recognize him, he said something that touched him very well - "My enemy is very strong, and I don't want to implicate the innocent until I am strong enough." ”
I don't know if it's because there is an induction between the beads or because Yang Zhuo is too lucky, Yang Zhuo actually bought the beads he wanted at a stall in an obscure town.
The beads were not beads, but three uneven stones connected together, and the stall owner insisted that it was a strange treasure, and when he asked him why, he only said that he was reluctant to sell it if it were not for the fact that his mother was sick and urgently needed a large amount of medical expenses.
The others said that he was crazy about money, and he took out such an ordinary three stones and sold them, and asked for a hundred taels of silver. Everyone seemed to be telling him as a joke.
Yang Zhuo also heard it while eating, and as soon as his heart moved, he found the location of the stall, and then suddenly sensed a familiar atmosphere. I took out a hundred taels of silver tickets and bought them without hesitation. Then he went straight to the main altar of the Holy Sect.
Yang Zhuo knew that there must be his own spirit inside, and he was worried that it would cause trouble. In the circular building of the main altar of the Holy Religion, it has the effect of isolating the divine consciousness. The method of entering and exiting Fang Jian had already informed Yang Zhuo.
Yang Zhuo experienced three months in it, and Fang fused the three wisps of essence from his previous life, as well as nearly half of his previous life's hard work. After merging, they fell asleep.
This slumber is half a year. During the slumbering period, Fang Jian was all taking care of it. Because when Yang Zhuo entered this circular secret room, Fang Jian knew it for the first time, because there was a wisp of his divine sense there.
Tianqian City, Lu's hot pot restaurant, even at one o'clock in the morning, is still overcrowded. I don't know what happened to the weather this year, it was more than twice as cold as usual. Many diners stay in the store all day, and they solve the problem in the store for three meals a day, and they also drag their families with them. No way, it's too cold at home, it's too warm here, it's just one in the sky and one underground. But all the rich dignitaries and nobles in the family ran to the store.
The weather is so cold that many transport convoys outside can't get in, whether it's grain, vegetables, cloth or medicinal herbs, they are already facing the crisis of running out of stock. Many smaller stores had to close their doors, and larger stores also raised the price of their inventory by a factor of 10 or 20.
The whole Tianqian City is in a state of inflation but everyone has to rush to buy again, another month has passed, the middle family has little money to spare, and the rich people have silver and can't buy things.
This is the third month of operation of Lu's hot pot restaurant, and when there is a shortage of various materials and soaring prices in the whole city and even the entire North Night Country, Lu Yan insists on not raising prices, and ensures that the ingredients provided are fresh. For a time, the image of Lu's hot pot restaurant was as tall as a sacred snow-capped mountain in the minds of every person in Tianqian City.
Three months after opening the store, after removing the cost of labor and ingredients, it made a net profit of 30,000 taels. After deducting the 10,000 taels of the purchased store, there are 20,000 taels.
Thinking of those customers who stay in the store, one stay is a whole day, one is the price in the store is fair, in other places this price can no longer buy anything, rice has risen to ten taels of silver a catty, and it is sold in limited quantities. And the hot pot restaurant is all-you-can-eat, however, it is limited to half an hour and there can be no leftovers. Seeing fresh vegetables and such fresh meat that are more expensive than meat in previous years, who would be so stupid to eat white rice within a limited time?
Lu Yan found that many shops in the city were hanging up for sale in the tooth store, but no one cared about them. The price has fallen again and again, and it has not improved much. Lu Yan was overjoyed, this is really a gold ingot dropped in the world. I first took the economic lifeline of Tianqian City in my own hands, and once I mastered these, Tianqian City, would it not be captured?
Just do it. But no matter how cheap it is, with only 20,000 taels in hand, it can't stand anything. I don't want to reveal too many secrets about the output of that place, so as not to cause more trouble. Suddenly, Lu Yan had a plan: to raise funds.
Lu Yan learned that in the entire Northern Night Country (in fact, not only the Northern Night Country, but also the Jiuzhou Kingdom), when people take the silver to deposit, the money village also charges the guests' storage fees. But Lu Yan, who has experienced modern baptism, would not do such a stupid thing.
Just do it, in five days, Lu Yan's Lu's money bank opened, different from the traditional money bank, not only does not charge the guest's custody fee, but also gives the guest interest, calculated at 0.3%/month interest, if the deposit is not withdrawn for five years, the interest is calculated at 0.8%, if the deposit is not withdrawn for ten years, the interest is calculated at 1%. The interest can be paid in cash or exchanged for grain. Grain is exchanged at the pre-inflation market price.
In addition, if you have deposited 1,000 taels of silver in the bank and do not withdraw it for five years, you can buy 100 catties of rice at the ordinary market price, if you have saved 5,000 taels and do not withdraw it for five years, you can buy 500 catties of rice at one time at the market price, and if you have saved 1,200 taels and do not withdraw it for five years, you can buy 2,000 catties of rice at one time at the ordinary market price. If you don't want to buy rice, you can also use the corresponding purchase limit to buy other daily necessities such as vegetables, fruits or other daily necessities. Such as cotton clothes, quilts, down jackets, etc., and of course, charcoal. All daily necessities, almost everything.
Because Lu's Qian Zhuang declared that Lu Shi Hot Pot Restaurant was the same, with this live signboard, in less than five days, Qian Zhuang collected nearly one million. This is really an astronomical amount, and all the promises made by the money bank. For a time, one passed ten, ten passed hundred, and the silver rolled in.
In addition, people continue to ask if there are similar money banks in other cities. You know, who doesn't have three relatives and six relatives, they take advantage of themselves, and they don't forget to go close to relatives and friends in other cities. Lu Yan didn't want to miss this business opportunity, and within a month, Lu's Money Village opened branches in the major cities of the Northern Night Kingdom.
The courtiers are naturally red-eyed, but when the emperor's own position is in jeopardy, and the civil and military officials are too busy to take care of themselves, the hand of the Lu family's money bank, in a way, has relieved the pressure on the courtiers.
Therefore, in the face of Lu's development, he also turned a blind eye. If you don't do this, you can't help it, where do people's raw materials come from, how do they transport them, and no matter how you check, you can't find any clues. It seems that many things are born out of thin air, and the people who send them out are also gone. If you can do this, the background must be very strong, and after trying countless times, you will no longer pay attention to it. Once the weather is over, it's not too late to clean up.
Of course, Lu's hot pot restaurant can maintain a stable price for a long time, and all kinds of goods in Qianzhuang can be supplied, I have to say that Lu Yan is far-sighted.
In the greenhouse of six acres of land, vegetables of different seasons are planted, even if it is the same vegetable, the sowing time is staggered, and the spiritual spring water is poured from time to time, and the maturity time of vegetables is shortened to one week, such as radish seedlings, cabbage, spinach, etc. The ripening cycle of sweet potatoes and melons has also been shortened to half a month to a month. A hot pot restaurant is more than enough for the supply.
The rest of Lu Yan is temporarily stored in the space first. Since Lu Yan found that her space was not limited to a maximum amount, she unceremoniously used it as a fresh-keeping warehouse and a means of transportation.
But Lu Yan knew that this was not a long-term solution, so according to the memory of her previous life, it took nearly three months to build a hundred transportation and fresh-keeping vehicles, with a capacity equivalent to that of a modern minivan, with a mezzanine at the bottom and around the car, all of which were heating equipment. Still using wood charcoal, the technology of burning wood charcoal, Lu Yan passed on to her uncle's dead soldiers.
These dead soldiers were all selected from two months of baby, and then cultivated in an inhuman way, in addition to being completely brainwashed, they were also controlled by a secret medicine, and they would only be loyal to their masters all their lives. Generally, the imperial family and important ministers of the court will have their own dead soldiers, grandfather and uncle's dead soldiers, plus the grandmother's mother's family, together there are about tens of thousands of people.
Originally, there weren't so many, but my grandfather smelled his brother's wolf ambitions, and almost threw everything he had, cultivating a large number of dead soldiers. Unexpectedly, now they were summoned by Lu Yanyi, and it came in handy in places they couldn't have imagined.
In fact, before Lu Yan used these dead soldiers, these dead soldiers had already spread all over the key towns of the Northern Night Kingdom, infiltrated all walks of life, and fed the collected information to the master through various channels.
Therefore, although Lu Yan's grandfather and uncle lived in seclusion in the city lord's mansion, they were not ignorant of the outside world. When Lu Yan came to ask for someone and put forward her specific requirements, both of them could quickly provide the right talent and do the right thing, which saved Lu Yan a lot of heart.
In the treasure land, Lu Yan herself gave a name, called Cornucopia. Speaking of this cornucopia, it has now undergone earth-shaking changes:
There are valleys with depressions and streams, and the area of the depressions is about 20 acres, which is surrounded by circular ponds, and the stream water is brought in, and some spiritual spring water is injected.
The pond is surrounded by mulberry trees. In the pond, all kinds of fish swim happily, and flocks of ducks and geese in the water from time to time burrow into the water and out of the water. In addition to fish, there are shrimp crabs, anchovy, etc.
Not far from the pond, rows of wooden houses are lined up in an orderly manner, and inside are all busy silkworm keepers. Take a closer look, there is a very familiar one, it turns out to be Aunt Luo.
Aunt Luo is an expert in silkworm raising, and Lu Yan asked her to give priority to finding some honest and diligent, not much talking, not arranging right and wrong, and being kicked out of the house by her husband's family or orphans and widows. These people, helping in times of crisis, are tantamount to sending carbon in the snow, and their loyalty will be relatively reliable.
Moreover, now Lu Yan's goal is to help her grandfather and uncle get back the entire Northern Night Kingdom, so all aspects must be considered. It was already unsustainable, and after bad weather, more people froze to death and starved to death. Lu Yan didn't want her grandfather and uncle to get back a cold city. Moreover, the people at the bottom are a force to be reckoned with.
