Chapter 427: Picking
Chongtang commerce and trade are full of flowers, 360 lines, which can be described as complete. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
For the wooden row, it can be regarded as a well-informed peppercorn, which knows a thing or two.
In fact, the so-called "wood row" in the mouth of the people of Chongtang is "wood shop", that is, a business name specializing in the trading of various kinds of wood.
Chongtang, as the key point of Jiangdong and the important town of Gyeonggi, is the thoroughfare of the south bank of the Yangtze River and the city along the canal.
If you want to get rich, build roads first.
This sentence is good no matter where it is left or when it is placed.
If you want to develop economically, you have to go first.
Even in the previous life, Sichuan pepper paid attention to interconnection, let alone the current world.
There is no road, no matter how good things are, they can't get out, and they can only sit in the city of sorrow.
Chongtang is strategically located, not only is it the land of fish and rice, but also rich in products. Moreover, it is also born to be the gateway of the southern ship and the northern horse, the thoroughfare of the seven provinces, and the town not only has the post road from the south to the north to transit, but also extends in all directions, especially relying on the Yangtze River, the canal two major water systems of the important trade node.
The two sides of the water and land are mutually dependent, and they have evolved from a military town to an important commercial port town, and the business and travel can gather and the market is prosperous.
After hundreds of years of angry development, as well as the foresight of the ancestors, Chongtang's commercial entry and exit has always been profitable, and merchants naturally flock to it, forming today's pattern step by step: the shops in the town are side by side, and the stores are side by side; On the port, boats are moored on the shore, and there are many masts and sails; On the post road, mules and horses galloped, and the convoy was like ants......
Rice silk cocoon, bamboo and charcoal, salt, sugar, oil tea, silk woolen velvet, north and south miscellaneous goods...... All can go north and south from Chongtang, not to mention the side, only to say that there are as many as seventy-two and a half boats sent from the Chongtang countryside to Chongtang every day.
And among the many kinds of trade that goes in and out of Chongtang, rice is the first largest.
Although Chongtang is still in a period of recuperation, due to a natural disaster, it has lost its former prosperity and is still recovering, but in the old years, the cocoon throughput of ships and ships and goods in and out is about 30,000 quintals, and there are more than 5,000 pieces of cotton yarn, 20,000 quintals of sugar, 200,000 quintals of oil, and more than 5,000 quintals of white celery......
But the throughput of cao rice is as high as five million quintals.
When you compare it, you can see how amazing the number is.
The size of the rice trade is beyond doubt.
But the second is not a considerable amount of silk cloth, or the throughput of oil and salt, but the entry and exit of wood.
Hua Jiao counted with her fingers, according to what she saw on the port last time, among the thousands of serious shops in Chongtang, there were about a dozen wooden rows lined up on the top of Jiujia.
The proportion in many industries in Chongtang is not very large, not to mention that it is not as good as the oil, salt and silk cloth industries that are still after the throughput.
However, because of the small quantity, it contributed to the second-largest amount of rice throughput transactions......
And the Shi family's Shengtai wood ranking is not one of the best in Manchongtang, but it is also in the front class.
Indeed, as Uncle Yao said, the historian has done a good job.
If you make a "rich list" in Chongtang, it is estimated that you can rank in the top 100.
It's no wonder that he has such a net worth.
According to what Uncle Yao told the Yao family in detail, the family business of the Shi family, in addition to the Shengtai wood row with warehouses and workshops, not only has several shops in the town, but the largest one is still on the north and south streets, with seven stores and three floors...... It is in Lianxi City that there is a big house with three entrances and three exits with a garden, and it is near the county front street, which can be regarded as the boundary of every inch of land.
It's just that it is said that the furniture, utensils, and even the servants are all available, slightly painted, and you can move in directly after getting married......
There are even more than 200 acres of granges in the countryside of Chongtang, and the hills in Tangqiao Town......
Uncle Yao especially emphasized the mention of this mountain: "Tangqiao is a good place, although it is not civilized, but in the end it is rich in firewood, I heard that half of our Lianxi Tai charcoal comes from there, and it is also exported to the surrounding states and counties, as long as the business is good, it is not worse than the income of the high-grade paddy fields, not to mention that the mountain, there are thousands of acres, there is no end in sight!" ”
But what Hua Jiaotou thought of was not the side, but during the flood that year, she remembered that it seemed that the entire Lianxi head could not hold Tangqiao Town, a good township in the high mountains, and it was even more broken than their waterfront polder township......
Pepper pondered blankly, and shook her little head for a while.
However, there is no need to look at Yao's statement, Hua Jiao already understands in his heart that this marriage is basically impossible.
The heirs and sons-in-law of the messy mansions on the side did not mention it, only that their eldest brother was the eldest son and eldest grandson, and he was the son of their main hall.
The sons and wives of the clan are not only in words and deeds, but also as simple as being an example for the brothers and sisters of the clan.
This is a family, a leader, but it needs to be a door.
Don't talk about others, just talk about their own family, in the cultivation of Qin Lianhu's eldest son, and the choice of Yao's eldest daughter-in-law, Qin's father and Qin Laoniang were all cautious.
Now there is more than that.
After all, it is not easy for his family to come to this point, and I dare not say that Brother Lobby must be better than Qin Lianhu, who is steady and generous, and can do better than Qin Lianhu.
There is no doubt that Brother Lobby's future must be broader than that of Qin Lianhu. Correspondingly, there is naturally only more cautious in the choice of this eldest granddaughter-in-law.
Virtue and words are all important.
There is wind and culture, and it is appropriate to have a room and IKEA, just like Yao's efforts to cultivate their sisters, not only hoping that they can be proficient in women's red needles and abide by their duties as women. I hope that they can tidy up the courtyard, operate the wells themselves, and take on the responsibility of being women.
But the only daughter raised in the greenhouse, especially Uncle Yao's words, called Huajiao has a deep memory: "Mrs. Shi also said, the candidates for the internal and external affairs around the little couple have been selected, and the eldest nephew will only be in charge of studying, and the girl of the Shi family will also be literate and hyphenated, and she will be able to understand the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and when the time comes, it will be just a matter of serving in front of you, and the affairs outside the family will not need to be bothered by the little couple at ......all."
Just this sentence made Huajiao put a big question mark on this girl from the Shi family who had never met.
Such a pampered little girl is only thinking about her own small life wholeheartedly, not to mention that she has no heart at all, and I am afraid that she does not have the ability to deal with such complicated economic affairs as her own family, as well as the intertwined exchanges of warp and weft......
But in the final analysis, it's not that Huajiao marries a daughter-in-law, so she doesn't actually use it.
The key depends on whether the lobby brother likes it.
You must know that the so-called love has no reason at all.
Sichuan pepper is a person who has come over.
She doesn't look good, but maybe the lobby brother fell in love with this Shi girl at first sight, and he even looked at it, and he saw it right!
It's just that Hua Jiao knows very well that Brother Lobby doesn't seem to have caught this tendon yet, and he hasn't opened up at all.
Little boy, it seems that he will be later than the little girl in this. According to Hua Jiao, for Brother Lobby, even a new book seems to be more attractive than a little girlfriend.
Only Yao's is at a loss.
And it's still a candle burning at both ends, and the bubbles on the mouth are about to burn out.
On the one hand, it was her brother and daughter-in-law who opened her mouth herself, and it was the first time that she was the eldest sister, and it was not easy for her to refute her words directly, so that she couldn't get over her face.
But she, her brother and daughter-in-law, can actually open this mouth to her for such a messy Shi family in the family, just thinking about this, the Yao family will be angry.
She is the patriarch of their Lishiwei branch, and she will have to be a person who will set up a household in the future, and even sometimes, she is like this, so brainless!
Then there is nothing to speak of in the future of their branch.
Yao's really didn't get angry.
What's more, no matter how difficult it is for her to speak, she never asks how good her in-laws are, how tall the girl's background is, but there is no reason to find someone who has not wiped her ass clean!
The historian who speaks at a loss of words, acts in a disorderly manner, and his mind is even more filthy and not on the stage, what do he regard as a major matter of marriage?
Is this a desire to get married, or is it here to make a feud!
But I miscalculated!
Yao sighed angrily, and tears were about to come out.
On the other hand, I was anxious about Brother Lobby's marriage.
Nowadays, there are mixed eyes, and good people are almost gone, but everyone knows their families well, and they will come when they open their mouths...... I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future.
Who knew that Uncle Yao, who had just patiently sent away the frowning aunt, Aunt Yu was suddenly accompanied by the Xu family to probe the accent and inquire whether the marriage of the elder brother in the lobby was settled.
This is also the first time that Grandma Yu has participated in the marriage of the Qin family's junior characters, and even if she worries about it in the past, Grandma Yu has never said a word.
But he said: "The old lady in the house wants to protect the stake for Da Lang ......"
To be honest, Grandma Yu was still a little stunned until this moment.
Yesterday, Mama Guo suddenly came to the door, and when she talked about the marriage of Brother Lobby, she thought that she had come to talk about it for others, and she smiled and erected a wall in her heart to entertain Mama Guo.
How did I know that Mama Guo actually came here for the words of Mrs. Fang, and said briskly: "I just threw bricks and jade, let's find out the accent first, let's see if we are late, if the two families really have this blessing to get married, the old lady will send the big media to the Qin family to propose marriage......"
Grandma Yu didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
And this time, whether it is Qin Lao Niang or the peppercorns in this house, he has not come back to his senses for a long time.
Especially in Sichuan pepper, many pictures of the past appeared in my mind like a marquee, and I realized that this marriage seemed to have been foreshadowed.
Huajiao was stunned, and Mrs. Qin had already come back to her senses, but she couldn't help but show surprise on her face: "Old lady? Which girl? ”
"It's the old lady's aunt and nephew." Grandma Yu replied.
But there is no longer the eight-sided exquisiteness of the past, and he actually asks and says anything, and there is no more than one word.
Sichuan pepper swallowed his saliva.
It's not for the "aunts and nephews" who don't have anything to do, but for the marriage itself.
Qin Lao Niang was also confused, but she said anxiously: "Sister make it clear, which one is it?" ”
"Oh!" Grandma Yu nodded indiscriminately and said, "It's the old lady's cousin, the eighth aunt of the Guo family, the eldest granddaughter of the old aunt's family, and the sixteenth girl of the Lianxi Zuo family." ”
The pepper is already one head or two big, and I just want to ask, is this Zuo family the Zuo family among the five major families in Lianxi.
Qin Lao Niang obviously knew about this Zuo family, but she gasped, and she didn't care about the pepper sitting on the small bamboo stool at her feet, leaned forward, opened her mouth and said, "Is there something here?" ”
Grandma Yu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Qin Lao Niang's brows slightly frowned, with an unspeakable expression, only to realize what Qin Lao Niang said, and hurriedly shook her head and waved her hand: "There is no no, there is no thing!" ”
"The Zuo family has always been known for its rigorous specifications!" Grandma Yu was frightened by Mrs. Qin, but she recovered two points, and hurriedly explained: "It's just that, this Zuo family is not the Zuo family of our Xiao Chenguang!" ”
As soon as Hua Jiao heard this, he knew that he seemed to have guessed correctly.
He pricked up his ears again and continued to listen: "This Zuo family is also an evil family, and it is even good, but the main branch is not prosperous and not prosperous, with five rooms inside and thirteen rooms outside, you don't know, over the years, the main branch has gradually been covered by the side branches. ”
Grandma Yu shook her head as she spoke, sighed again, and continued to tell Mrs. Qin: "You should remember that the old lady's cousin married into the fourth room of the Zuo family. There are five rooms in the left family, and although the foundation of the four rooms is the weakest, it is the branch of the Zuo family, but it is also a good marriage. But I didn't expect to die of illness in my twenties, and my aunt and wife were widowed young, didn't the sky fall! Orphans and widows, a widow guards two dead money, only in and out but not in, and finally pulls the eldest son and a daughter, Mrs. Gu married back to the Guo family, and life can go on. But the cousin lacks two points of spirituality in his studies, and he has no more progress after lifting people. But in the end, it was the Zuo family, recommended by the eldest master of the Zuo family, and went to the north to do a teaching, but he didn't adapt to the wind and sand in the north, and he came back in less than two years. ”
Grandma Yu sighed again as she spoke, not knowing whether she was sorry for the old aunt and wife in her mouth, or sorry for the cousin.
However, after a sigh of turbidity, the old lady was a little more energetic, and continued to say: "The one mentioned by the old lady is the eldest daughter of the cousin, and she ranks sixteenth among the cousins of the main branch of the Zuo family. In the end, it is because of the eldest daughter, there is a younger sister and a younger brother at the bottom, I heard Mama Guo say that it was the old lady Fang who praised it herself, saying that this sixteen girl is a rare person who understands, quite like her mother and grandmother, but not like the cousin, the tofu fell into the ashes, and he couldn't blow it, and he couldn't beat it......"
