Liang Chuan helped Zhao Xiaopin and came out of the county office, Yang Baxian led a group of younger brothers to hurriedly come forward to help, Zhong Liang, a shameless man, was detained on the spot, and the matter finally came to an end. This new type of firewood stove has been promoted in the county government, and now everyone knows the benefits, and the popularization will be faster in the future.

As soon as Liang Chuan walked out of the county office, he didn't expect to meet two acquaintances, Zheng Ruoying and his cousin Shishi. The two were waiting outside the county office, Liang Chuan must have something to talk about when he saw this frame, Zhao Xiaopin was injured and had to be taken home to recuperate first, Liang Chuan instructed Yang Baxian to send Zhao Xiaopin back to Fengshan first, he hadn't met these two sisters and brothers for a long time.

"When did you two come here and you didn't squeak?" Liang Chuan looked at Zheng Ruoying, this girl hasn't seen it for a long time, she is becoming more and more delicate, and she has more and more of a strong woman's taste, which is different from Shen Yuzhen's weak beauty.

"Brother Liang, as soon as the hall opened, we were watching outside, and we all heard that there was a strange case today, which was about this drought, and I liked it the most, so I came to join in the fun, but I didn't expect it to be you beating the drum and ascending to the hall!"

Zheng Ruoying looked at Liang Chuan and said hatefully: "What do you think about this person, do you want to deliberately show off your talent in this court?" Or is it really for the people of this county? Do you really think that you have great magical powers that penetrate the heavens and the earth, and you can know in advance when it rains? ”

Liang Chuan shook his head, "What I said just now is so simple, don't you still understand?" Do you still think I'm talking nonsense? ”

"I know you have great skills, you know more things than we do, but do you have to say it so hard, even if you say maybe, now say that it will rain in three months, what if it doesn't rain? Everyone knows that you are a fanatic in Xinghua. Zheng Ruoying's tone sounded like he was scolding Liang Chuan, but when he took a closer look, his worries about Liang Chuan were revealed between the lines, and Liang Chuan's heart warmed when he heard it, don't say it if it doesn't make sense, it hurts his feelings.

Liang Chuan followed the two of them back to Zheng's house, he hadn't been here for a long time. Zheng Zuliang has set off to the northwest to do big business since the Lantern Festival, and now he hasn't even heard from him, and he doesn't know how much money he has made, and he doesn't even know whether he is dead or alive. A stall in the family was thrown to his son Stone, and the Stone was very lively, so he was a little short of doing business.

Fortunately, this stone is not gambling or prostituting now, and if you go to these two things, even if your skills are poor, it is still not a problem to keep it. If you are prostituting and gambling, it is estimated that you will not be able to wait for Zheng Zuliang to earn the money back, and the family property will be completely lost.

Zheng Ruoying is a special case, she is more ambitious than the stone, her cousin stays at home all day, thinking about how to play, how to be beautiful, and her enthusiasm for her career is less passionate than that of the stone. If Zheng Zuliang is gone, I don't know how many years it will last.

A few people passed by the Zheng family's property, although the stone was reluctant these days, he had to go to the store on time every day to inspect it, if these guys in the store took advantage of the absence of the big owner to do nonsense, the loss would be great.

The three of them sat down in the rice line, and the guy cleverly served tea to the three people, they didn't know Liang Chuan, but the little owner and Miss Table would not recognize it, and now the small owner has changed the frivolous style of the past, and every day he went to the store to humbly ask the business department, and also checked the accounts, and asked Miss Table if he didn't understand.

Liang Chuan is now in charge, but he still rarely comes to buy a place like Mi Mi Xing, he only knows that the price of rice is very cheap now, when he came to buy it once with Yi Niang, a bucket seems to be only eighty yuan, and a bucket has about ten catties, which is enough for a family of three to eat for several days. A family of three can earn dozens of dollars every day by going up the mountain to collect some firewood, and the cost of living can be said to be very low.

There are few customers chatting in the rice line, but the guys are chasing flying insects, and they are almost fading out of the birds. However, the whole rice line is full of fragrance, which is a pure natural rice fragrance, just smelling this smell makes people feel comfortable, and there is a feeling of fullness in the stomach, which is quite warm and comfortable. In this era, one of the most important tasks, and one of the tasks that I have been striving for, is to fill my stomach.

The rice shop sells rice is not weighed, but weighed the volume, and there are three kinds of objects in the store, liter, bucket, and hu. The cylindrical "liter" has the words "guild calibration" on it, indicating that it has been certified by the "peer guild" and the measurement is accurate. The "bucket" is much larger than the "liter", and it is barrel-shaped, with two grips in the middle and lower parts, which is convenient for handling. The largest barrel is called "Hu", and the peasants have to pay "rent" for cultivating the landlord's field, and the landlord uses this kind of Hu to measure when collecting rent.

Liang Chuan watched with relish, when someone came to the store to buy rice to do business, in addition to filling the bucket, the man had to scoop some more, so that the rice in the bucket was spiky, which was called "no tip is not a business". Later, it slowly became "no traitor, no business". The main factor of change is that everyone knows that when the dynasty took agriculture as the foundation of the country, the merchants did not produce but occupied a large amount of social wealth, and they had to be suppressed, and this was the result of the heavy agriculture and suppression of business.

"Has that Sun Houpu come to you recently?" Liang Chuan didn't open which pot to mention, Zheng Ruoying was like a cat that had been stepped on its tail, and jumped up all of a sudden, and said: "He's him and I'm me, what's the matter with him, I'm living a good life alone, why do you want him to come to find him?" ”

Liang Chuan smiled, it was hard to say anything, so he had to change the topic and said, "Your rice industry is not good?" ”

Who knew that Zheng Ruoying still continued: "His kind of rich son Yuzhi likes it the most, if you go back and introduce Yuzhi to him, Yuzhi will definitely be grateful to you for a lifetime!" Zheng Ruoying's face was covered with a faint flush, which was a little intoxicating, her eyes did not look directly at Liang Chuan, but looked straight ahead, as if she was talking to Liang Chuan, and she seemed to be talking to herself.

"Uhhhhh

After Shi checked the store's accounts for the day, there were only three or five people who came to buy rice, and there were not many people to buy. He sat down next to Liang Chuan, took a sip of tea, and said, "Now the business of Mi Xing is getting worse and worse, and I can't make a few dollars a day. ”

From ancient times to the present, all those who do the rice business are all big businessmen on the rich side, and I have never heard of a rice businessman who guards the rice shop and cries poor.

Liang Chuan said with a smile: "Your skinny camels are bigger than horses, and no matter how thin your arms are, they are thicker than our thighs. ”

Zheng Ruoying said: "Since last year, the temperature in both the north and south of the country has been much higher than in previous years, the southern rice harvest is bumper, the harvest wheat is about to overflow the barn, the country is full of bumper harvests, the price of this grain is getting lower day by day, so this business is not easy to do!" ”

As the saying goes, the extremes of things must be reversed, and the moon is full and the crops cannot be harvested every year, and the influence of the climate is obvious. El Niño periods bring unusually high temperatures in some areas, which is good for farming, but the following year was not so lucky. The good places are simply reducing production, but the bad ones may not even have a way to survive. The chaos in the world at the end of the Ming Dynasty was said to be the rise of the Jurchens, but the once-in-a-millennium catastrophe in the northwest left millions of displaced people homeless, which was fatal.

Liang Chuan said: "Your two sisters and brothers have rice shops at home, and today I will point you to a broad road to make money, do you want to hear it?" ”

Zheng Ruoying frowned, she invested all the money she had hidden for many years in the sugarcane field in Fengshan, and now she hasn't recovered a penny, so she has to invest again? She was a little hesitant at the time. Shishi's eyes lit up when he heard it, his father had been out for too long, and there was no news at all, he had been guarding these industries for more than half a year, and he hadn't earned a copper plate, and he was worried that he couldn't show himself, and he made a lot of money when his father came back to Zheng Zuliang to take a good look.

"Brother Liang, tell me quickly, what is the way to make money? Tell the little brother to listen.,If the little brother makes money.,At that time, it won't be good for your guidance fee.。。 ”

This is really a business, I know the truth of profit distribution, and although I make a lot of money by monopolizing the business, I will only rest on my laurels in this business. Liang Chuan said: "I didn't just predict in the lobby that there will be heavy rain in the next three months!" At that time, there will be not only heavy rain, but also floods in many places. Liang Chuan looked at the two siblings as he spoke, and the two siblings fell into deep contemplation, continuing to listen to Liang Chuan's words, but they didn't understand the truth.

"We've heard you go, go on?" The two of them said in unison.

Liang Chuan slandered in his heart, with a brain like yours, you are still doing business...

"This flood will not only flood Xinghua at that time, but will also be a disaster south of the river. In this way, the fertile land will be destroyed, and the time will not be the end of the grain harvest, and the price of rice will skyrocket. Liang Chuan looked at the two of them, and when they said this, the two of them had a suddenly realized expression.

Zheng Ruoying is cautious in her work, she still has some concerns when she listens to Liang Chuan's words, this still can't avoid that question, why is Liang Chuan so sure that it will rain heavily in three months?

Shi Shi was excited, "If I buy a lot of this new rice now, wouldn't I be able to make a lot of money when the price of rice soars!" ”

"Theoretically, you should know better than I do."

Zheng Ruoying worried: "It's just that it's still not raining, what should I do?" ”

The stone thought about it for a while: "If it doesn't rain, it won't rain, anyway, this rice should also enter, if it doesn't rain, it will be sold tomorrow's old rice, now the price of rice is so low, and the loss can't go anywhere, my father said, it is common for business to make profits and losses, but this wealth is dangerous, I believe in Brother Liang's words, I will give it a try!" ”
