Chapter 9: Opening the Weaving Workshop (2)
After breakfast the next day, Yun Xi and his father were going to go to the west of the city to see the land.
Daddy said, 'Why don't we hire a carriage?'
Yun Xi thought for a while and said, "Dad, will you set up a carriage?" β
Daddy said, 'Of course, I will do all the work at the rich man's house.' β
Yun Xi said: "Then go and hire it, don't hire a coachman, you just come and drive, there are too many people and mouths." β
Daddy drove the carriage to his doorstep. The two got into the carriage and hurried all the way to the west of the city. After a while, my father stopped the carriage and said, "It's here."
Yun Xi got out of the carriage and saw that there was a large piece of land, about a few hundred acres, and there were still crops growing in the field, that is, sparse, there was about a bunch of tall wheat, and there was a small spike in Huanghuang, Yun Xi pulled down a few, rubbed the rice in his hand, and saw that so many wheat trees only had two or three shriveled wheat seeds, and Daddy said: "No wonder no one is watching, I'm afraid this harvest can't even get the seeds back!" β
Yun Xi said to his father: "Go back and inquire who owns this piece of dry land, and try to buy it." β
After the two came back, my father went out to inquire, and I came back after a while, and I heard my father say, "That piece of land belongs to two families, and it belongs to the rich man Li and the rich man Wang. I'm afraid it's hard to buy land from him! β
Yun Xi didn't think about doing this by herself at all, no one would take her an eight-year-old girl seriously, and she didn't seem to have visited the prefect when she came back from the palace.
Yun Xi called Daddy, the two of them put on clean clothes, Yun Xi took some medicinal supplements sent by the palace, let Daddy hire a carriage, and the two went to the prefect's mansion, and when they arrived at the door, Yun Xi asked the scary person to report, and said that the little girl Yunxi came to visit the prefect and his wife, and after a while, someone came out and said: "The adult is not at home, and the lady said that there is an invitation."
Yun Xi said to her father, "Dad, go back!" β
Yun Xi came up to see the prefect's wife under the leadership of his subordinates, and the prefect's wife saw Yun Xi happily took Yun Xi's hand and said, "When did the child come back, but I miss death, it seems to be a little fat." β
Yun Xi said: "I've been back for two days, I've slept for two days, and I want to come to see Madame as soon as I have the energy," he said and took out the tonic from the palace and said, "I don't know what Madam likes, this is the bird's nest and ginseng sent by the queen, I took some for you, and when Mrs. Prefect heard that it was given by the queen, her eyes widened, and she took it while smiling and said, "You kid, come and take something." Don't go to eat here, the master will be back in a while, and we will pick you up. β
Yun Xi said, "Okay."
At lunchtime, the prefect returned, and the prefect was also very happy to see Yunxi.
After eating, the prefect's son shouted for Yun Xi to paint a portrait of him, and after painting him, the prefect called Yun Xi to the study to ask Yun Xi about his situation in the palace, Yun Xi told the prefect that he was named an imperial businessman, and told the prefect that he had plans to do business, and
said that he had plans to open a weaving workshop, and saw that the cloth sold in the cloth village was single in color and vulgar in quality. And most of it is silk, and he also said that he also plans to do silk business. When the time comes, I will talk to the emperor, and the people in the palace will make clothes with their own cloth, and even say that they have plans to open a garment factory. The prefect said, "Yunxi! Everything is easier said than done," Yun Xi said: "Believe me, as long as you work hard, you will definitely succeed." β
The prefect said, "Say it! How do you want me to help you. β
Yunxi said: "I open a weaving mill and want to build a factory. This is the purchase of land. I saw that the rich man Li and the rich man Wang in the west of the city did not harvest the grains, to be honest, such dry land, it is not possible to plant the land, rather than wasting seeds, it is not as good as selling me a few dollars, hearing this prefect hesitate to say: "This rich man Li is good to say, this rich man Wang is very difficult to entangle." β
Yun Xi hurriedly said: "After the matter is completed, we will divide the income of the weaving workshop fifty-fifty. You don't have to pay for it."
The prefect said, "Okay, I'll try, how much money are you going to pay." β
Yun Xi said: "Five hundred taels of silver tickets." β
The prefect said, "It's a lot, go back and wait for my letter!" β
