After getting this batch of paper merchants, He Wei and Yan Shujian were sent all the way to Qiantang Wharf, and this respect and courtesy alone are not the same as Liu Yan, who has not even walked down Xiaoqu Mountain. After seeing them on the boat, Yan Shujian still didn't understand a little, and complained: "Qiyi, the price Qilang paid in order to win them over is too great, right?" Is this necessary? You don't have to worry about not being able to sell it, so why give the money you get to others? ”

He Wei smiled and said, "So he is the lord of the city, and we can only be subordinates." Strict shopkeeper, remember one sentence: money is inexhaustible! ”

Yan Shujian seems to understand whether he understands or not, he is a businessman, and his eyes are limited to a business in the paper industry, but he doesn't understand Xu You's sight, which is thousands of miles away, thousands of miles away.

Back in Jingyuan, Xu Youzheng and Lu Shuang and others were listening to the secret Yao's explanation of the Book of Changes, and when they saw He Wei pushing the door in, he beckoned him to come over and sit on his side, and said, "The guest has been sent away?" ”

"Well, as Qilang expected, Liu Yan really played a trick and gave a low price of sixty Wen, so that these paper merchants only sold his Yanxi paper, and did not allow the big paper from the grass to enter the counties for sale."

"That's what I told you about the exclusivity agreement. Competition, it's either a conspiracy or a conspiracy, and there are just a few tricks that go over and over again, and there has been no big change in thousands of years. ”

Xu You said lazily: "Presumably, there must be someone who is interested in interests, reluctant to accept the benefits promised by Liu Yan, and fell out with Luo Baiheng, right?" ”

Yan Shujian, who was on the side, admired the five-body throw to the ground, and said: "Qilang people are not in the workshop, but everything that can happen is like seeing it in person, it is really a fairy among the gods!" ”

Xu You laughed and said, "Shopkeeper Yan, I like to hear what you say." But I'm not a god, it's just that there are many people in this world who only see the present and can't see the future, so their minds are very easy to guess! ”

He Wei agreed with Xu You's opinion that there were too many fools in the world after all, and said, "Twelve people left, and nine people remained." ”

"Nine people, that's enough!"

Xu You couldn't help but clap his hands and said in a low voice: "Give Luo Baiheng seven remote states, with the strength of his No. 1 paper merchant in Sanwu and the assistance of the other eight paper merchants, you can popularize Youhe paper to the entire Jiangdong in the shortest possible time." That's a good thing for us, and if it's successful, we can follow this model and find someone to sell in other states. In this way, we can save our time and cost, focus on expanding the scale, improve the output and quality, and lay a solid foundation for the next step of bamboo paper research and development. ”

The promotion of bamboo paper and the reduction of the price of paper products, and the fundamental solution to the current situation of the difficulty of book circulation is the plan that Xu You really cares about!

"Have you found a suitable place for the winter solstice?" He Wei asked.

"I found it, there is a wasteland on the south side of Mingyu Mountain, the terrain is flat, there are several rivers confluence, as long as a road can be built for ox carts to enter and exit. The problem now is that this uncultivated wasteland is not terra nullius, it is owned by a man named Bi Shi, who is unwilling to sell it, and the winter solstice is still negotiating with him, and he may not be able to negotiate it when it will be completed. ”

Yan Shujian said: "If there is anything you don't want to sell in the wasteland, if you don't grow grain, it's useless, you just sit on the ground and raise the price, just give him more money." ”

"The key is that he wants too much, if he agrees, it will be too public, and it is easy to attract a lot of unnecessary attention. Even now, the front foot of the winter solstice has just left, and there are already rumors on the back foot that there is a treasure buried in the ground, the purchase of land is fake, and the grave digging and treasure theft are real. ”

Xu You shook his head, although he told him that the winter solstice should be low-key, but the village is so big, not to mention going to a few strangers, even passing by a few wild dogs that he has never seen before can cause a sensation. Bi Shizui is not strict, proudly claiming that someone wants to buy land at a high price, and the rumors spread immediately, fortunately, the winter solstice wears a curtain fence, no one knows her identity, and it can't reach Liu Yan's ears in a short time, so he is not afraid that he will make a hindrance.

He Wei thought for a while and said, "Have you checked this person on the winter solstice, do you have any likes and dislikes?" ”

"This person is extremely convinced of magic, and this time he raised the price of the land, also under the pretense of the words of the monk. He said that a monk once told him that there was great wealth in this place, so he was very confident, and he couldn't pay a penny less. ”

He Wei smiled and said, "Divination? This is easy, Shichiro don't worry, leave this matter to me! ”

There is a Bijia village next to Mingyu Mountain, Bishi is the village of Lizheng, in the villagers have a bad reputation, but when they were young, they fought bravely and fiercely, no one dared to provoke, and later relied on the many people of their own tribe, and they enjoyed great power, saying one or the other. However, just like the winter solstice investigation, he is extremely superstitious, and every time there is a major event, he has to find a priest or Taoist to ask for good fortune and evil.

As soon as he got up that day, there was a sloppy wandering Taoist who came to the door to ask for water to drink, he asked two words, seeing that this Taoist was extraordinary, he was very respectful at the moment, served hot water, and asked: "Do Taoists know the magic of divination?" ”

"No!"

Bi Shi's face was full of disappointment, and his attitude suddenly became bad, and he snatched the porcelain bowl and said, "Go away!" Where did the bull's nose come from, don't stain my bowl. ”

Unexpectedly, the Taoist said, "I have the method of going through the mountain!" ”

"Mountains? Haven't heard of it, what's the origin? ”

"It's a big deal! Have you ever heard of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, that is the ancestor of China, there is a Qing Wuzi beside him, who created the method of the mountain, surveyed the two houses of Yin and Yang, like a fairy Linfan, even the Yellow Emperor must have a bear, buried in the bridge tomb, all the credit of the Qing Wuzi. ”

"Huh? It's so powerful! Bi Shi was so shocked that he almost bowed down to the Taoist, licked his smile and brought the bowl to him, and said: "Please let the real person drink water first, and then show his magical powers, and inspect this house for the old decay, is it okay?" ”

"Watching the dragon to the potential, inspecting the acupoint to the shape, the sand and water at the head of the mountain, the body is wonderful, you need to look at the surface and the terrain first, and then look at the ground and the earth, and then according to the five elements and directions of the soil and stone, you can distinguish the good and the bad."

The Taoist drank the water in the bowl and said: "Drinking your bowl of water today is considered a fateful person, and wait for me to make the method of the mountain, take a look at your house!" He walked through the hall, looked around, his fingers kept calculating, his face became heavier and heavier, Bi Shi's heart almost rose to his throat, and he asked tremblingly: "What did the real person see, isn't it...... Not so good? ”

"The Yang Mansion is first and foremost the door, with the door as the gas, the gas is prosperous, and the declining gas is fierce. The main house of your house is facing the door of the house, which was originally a departure house, but later three rooms were added on the north side, and the door was changed to the northwest, and it became a kan house. Therefore, the hurdle has become a force of fire and water, and it is a big murderer. Has there been a white thing at home in the past few years? ”

Bi Shi stammered: "Yes, yes, my youngest son was only twenty-one years old, and he became seriously ill and passed away three years ago!" ”

The Taoist showed pity on his face and said, "Is it after the house is built?" ”

"Yes, in order to marry him, the house has just been built, and his body is not good, and it is useless to see all the doctors......"

"But it's cold, and there is no medicine for the medicine?"

Old Bi Shi's eyes were full of tears, and he suddenly grabbed the hands of the Taoist, and said, "Real person, no, immortal, old immortal, you said that my child's death was caused by this murderous house?" ”

"Hey, you still have two sons, if you don't tidy up the house as soon as possible, I'm afraid you will ...... the end."

Bi Shi fell to his knees, frightened, and wailed: "Real person, help!" ”

The Taoist helped him up, looked at it carefully, and said in a deep voice: "But you have a good face and a divine guard, even if the house is in a fierce place, it shouldn't be the last one." He paced back and forth, suddenly turned around and asked, "What is the northwest?" ”

Bi Shi led the Taoist to the northwest of the village, and the Taoist's face changed greatly, pointing to a piece of wasteland and saying, "Whose land is this?" The northwest is the fate of leaving, and it is the evil of leaving the house, and there is water flowing endlessly, which is a big murderer. ”

Bi Shi's face turned pale, and he said, "This, this is my ......"

"Then it's no wonder, the fierceness is the fierce, the Jedi is established, it is very clear in the Luantou Law, this is called the widow's house, the yin and the yang are also, within seven years, there are only women in the family, and there are no men!"

Bi Shi's body was weak, and he languished on the ground, and it took a while to come to his senses, hugging the Taoist's legs, begging bitterly, and saying, "Ask the gods for guidance, how can we break such a bad omen?" ”

"Either build a five-entry house here, I will survey the location for you, every wood and tile must be extremely particular, and you can shake the evil, but the use is not small, I am afraid it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars."

Bi is eyes showed despair, and said: "I, I'm a small lizheng, how can I have so much money?" ”

"Or, sell this place to outsiders, whether it is good or bad, naturally it has nothing to do with you. I will teach you to rebuild the door of the main house in the right position, and this evil omen can also be solved! ”

Bi Shi was overjoyed, and immediately said: "This is okay, I can sell the land immediately, no, give it away for nothing, and do it without money!" ”

The Taoist shook his head and said: "No, how much others sell, you have to sell as much, you can't charge more, and even less if you collect less." If you want to give it away for nothing, you will still hurt yourself. Remember, no one can tell you what I tell you, or it won't work! ”

Bi Shi is already convinced of the Taoist, as long as he is not allowed to die immediately, he will say whatever he says, and obey his words. After saying goodbye, when the winter solstice came to the door, he immediately sold the wasteland at the market price, signed the deed according to the rules, went to the yamen for the record, paid the loss estimate, and then took the money home without delay.

Dong Solstice returned to Jingyuan with the title deed, and talked about Bi Shi's impatience, which made everyone laugh. Xu You quipped: "I didn't expect that his wing still has this ability, if we are short of money in the future, we can let him go to the house." ”

He Wei, a monk, pretended to be a Taoist not once or twice, the so-called practice makes perfect, not ashamed but proud, and said: "What kind of ability is this, a scoundrel who has never seen the world, and when there is a chance in the future, you see how I fool those gate valve clans!" ”

The frost and the winter solstice made a grimace together, and the ugly slave who was tired of Xu You's arms didn't understand the mockery of the grimace, but it was fun to watch, and he wrinkled his nose and stuck out his tongue, which was cute!

Xu You flicked her head to prevent her from following the winter solstice and their bad learning, and said: "The land is in hand, let's start preparing, move the gold square as soon as possible, and get rid of the haze of Liu Yan's high residence in Xiaoqu Mountain as soon as possible!" ”
