Liu Dongming had already known Li Zhongyi's identity through the secret guidance of the soap servants, so he cried with a sad face and arched his hand and said: "Don't hide it from Li Gong, this batch of goods is all some defective silk and satin, if the valuation is too high, the villain will die." ”

Li Zhongyi wanted to sigh in his heart, the young man who was so handsome and forced to chase after Zhou Yu was so beautiful that his mouth was full of copper smell, which was really shocking.

"Why did you abandon ship and go ashore here?" Li Zhongyi is not a professional businessman after all, and he must find skilled people in the industry to understand the situation for some problems.

Liu Dongming rolled his eyes, hesitating whether to tell the truth, Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, and said, "As long as you answer the official's question honestly, everything else is easy to discuss." ”

"Don't hide it from Gong Li, although the commercial tax here is relatively ...... That one...... High...... However, in front of the Bianhe River, the closer to the various Jindus in Kaifeng City, the more expensive the power fee is, and they often lose things, and it is useless to complain. In addition, the rental of ox carts or donkey carts also costs a lot more. In order to save a few small bucks as much as possible, the villain would rather work harder and go ashore from Xiaoyaojin. ”

Li Zhongyi listened carefully and nodded frequently, the difficulties that Liu Dongming said were actually the important opportunities for him.

wanted to know more about the situation, Li Zhongyi took Liu Dongming back to the public hall, ordered Ma Xiaoliu to make tea, and then began to communicate.

This person is really unseemly, Liu Dongming, who looks like a fairy, is actually very philistine, in order to save a few taxes, he knows everything about Li Zhongyi's problems, and he has endless words.

Of course, Liu Dongming is very interested in his source of purchase, as well as the real price and sales channel. That's not to mention.

Li Zhongyi understood in his heart that this Liu Dong obviously wanted to gain his favor, so that when he purchased goods from other places in the future, he would be able to enjoy the benefits of low taxes in Xiaoyaojin.

After chatting for more than two hours, Li Zhongyi let Liu Dongming go with satisfaction. The tax rate on his goods remains unchanged, it is still worth 5 percent per 100, but in terms of the actual total value, Li Zhongyi gave him a 7% discount.

After Liu Dongming thanked him again and again, he left happily, and Huang Jingsheng walked quickly to the side of his position just now. Bending down, he picked up a string of money from the ground.

"Hehe, just a bunch of money wants to buy me? Lao Huang, return it to him. Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, and took an account book in his hand. Read through the contents carefully.

Whether ancient or modern, it has become a well-known rule for businessmen to bribe officials with real power.

After lunch, Li Zhongyi ordered Wang Youde to find more than a dozen idlers to come over and help build a few simple thatched huts.

Wang Youde didn't quite understand in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask Li Zhongyi, so he had to go down and arrange it with suspicion.

Because it is summer, Li Zhongyi does not need to think about the problem of cold protection for the time being. As long as the thatched hut is sturdy, it is a complete achievement.

In the account of Zinca there was fifty pieces of money. This is the public money accumulated over the years to make a façade, and Li Zhongyi can use it casually as long as he does not put it in his pocket.

Thatch is worthless, bricks made of yellow mud are not worth much, wood is worth a little, but. Li Zhongyi did not plan to build a bunker, so naturally he did not need too expensive wood.

According to the rules of the imperial court. During Li Zhongyi's errand period, in addition to the rest of the day. You must take time off work to return home.

Therefore, that night, Li Zhongyi lived in the official residence of Jinling.

The official residence of Xiaoyaojin Ling is in Xiaoyao Town, which is more than two miles away from Xiaoyaojin Ferry.

It is also very strange to say, this small three-entry small courtyard spans two counties, outside the left wall is Kaifeng County, and on the right wall is Xiangfu County.

The concubines were not around, Li Zhongyi read a book for a while, washed his feet, and went to bed.

On the second day, Li Zhongyi got up early, moved his hands and feet by the wall, and Huang Jingsheng bought noodle soup and sesame cakes in the town and had breakfast.

After going out, Li Zhongyi rode a horse and walked on the streets of the town, and he now that many townspeople did not cook at home, but ate breakfast outside.

Li Zhongyi thought to himself, the peasants are generally reluctant to eat breakfast outside, and these townspeople are probably citizens who have jobs near Kaifeng.

After arriving at the ferry, Li Zhongyi saw that Wang Youde was urging a large group of idlers he had found to start building thatched sheds.

Huang Jingsheng looked at it for a while, and asked Li Zhongyi with some curiosity: "Son, what are you doing to build a thatched shed?" ”

Li Zhongyi smiled slightly and said, "I plan to sell things like lunch boxes, herbal tea, and umbrellas." ”

"What's a boxed lunch?" Huang Jingsheng asked Li Zhongyi with some puzzlement.

The corners of Li Zhongyi's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled: "A boxed lunch is a big bowl of rice." ”

"Childe, the northerners mainly eat noodles, why do you want to sell rice?" Huang Jingshengyue was puzzled.

"Nanren people like to eat rice, besides, this is just the beginning, look back, there must be pasta." Li Zhongyi didn't bother to explain too much to Huang Jingsheng, and some things would really be explained clearly for a while.

The thatched hut with ventilation on three sides soon had a prototype, and Li Zhongyi asked Wang Youde to call the soap servants of Zinca together.

Huang Jingsheng took Li Zhongyi's eyes, and asked these soap servants loudly: "Li Gong asks, whose Hun family can cook?" ”

The soap servants didn't know what Li Zhongyi meant, and looked at each other one by one, not knowing how to answer.

Li Zhongyi smiled and said, "Ben Jinka needs five mothers-in-law who can cook, with a daily salary of ten yuan, and they can also take care of the food. ”

At this moment, the soap servants all understood, and some soap servants who thought they were good at cooking for the Hun family crowded in front of Huang Jingsheng and rushed to sign up.

There are only five places, but there are eight people who sign up, and everyone looks at Li Zhongyi with blank eyes, hoping that he can choose his own Hun family.

Li Zhongyi originally just casually said five people, but when he saw that everyone wanted to find a job as a food manager for his wife, he was relieved and accepted them all.

"Thank you Li Gongcheng, this time I helped us solve the big problem." For a while, there were different opinions, and everyone was full of praise for Li Zhongyi.

Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, the restaurant was opened by Jinka, and the participants were all soap workers' Hun families, which had a bit of a taste of the canteen.

The appointment was to come over the next morning, and some people who were anxious came to his Hun family at noon that day, wanting to cook for Li Zhongyi.

After seeing the scene in front of him, Wang Youde knew that the general trend had gone, and he felt extremely jealous of Li Zhongyi's scheming that was good at buying people's hearts.

After the thatched shed and stove were built, Li Zhongyi instructed Wang Youde to buy the cow bones, butter and a few catties of beef that he had slaughtered after the fall and was ready to make soup.

Huang Jingsheng took people to nearby villages to buy rice, noodles, green vegetables, radishes and other vegetables, and many things were bought directly from farmers, and the prices were much cheaper than in Kaifeng City.

Eight female chefs, Li Zhongyi, according to their specialties, some are responsible for cutting vegetables, some are responsible for rolling noodles, and some are responsible for stir-frying big pot dishes according to Li Zhongyi's teachings.

Li Zhongyi roughly calculated that only sixty meals were prepared on the first day, and there were more than twenty people in Jinka itself, plus eight female chefs, and the remaining thirty servings were the amount of boxed lunches to be sold today.

Yesterday, there were three groups of idlers, and it is said that Ma Xiaoliu said that many of them were single, and they did not cook at home, and always ate outside.

This can consume about ten servings of food, and the remaining twenty servings are to provide meals for passers-by or merchants.

In terms of dishes, Li Zhongyi doesn't plan to make it too complicated, just three meats, one vegetable and one soup. Li Zhongyi's family eats half a sheep every day, and he only needs to bring mutton bones, mutton fat and a small amount of mutton to solve the problem of two meats.

Lamb bones stewed with radish with plenty of thick juice, beef bone mushroom soup boiled straight to oil, stir-fried white wattle, a small plate of pickled radish, and a plate of braised fish pieces.

Because there are fishermen selling fish near Zinca, it is very convenient and cheap to buy fish, so Li Zhongyi specially added this dish.

In fact, when Li Zhongyi arranged the recipes, he deliberately focused on meat dishes, and the stir-fried white siad was actually reserved for himself.

Eating in the town, there is no stir-fry, it is better to be in the Jinka, and it is much more convenient to solve the problem of lunch and dinner.

Li Zhongyi arranged another entourage to go to the town to find someone to make a pretense, and there was no need to be too fancy, and there were a few big words on it: Five money is enough to eat.

After all the things were purchased, according to Huang Jingsheng's precise calculations, at least 200 copies of this so-called boxed lunch would need to be sold every day before it was possible to pay the wages of the female chefs.

Li Zhongyi smiled slightly and said: "This kind of business only needs to protect the principal, or lose a little, who expects to make a lot of money with this?" ”

Huang Jingsheng suddenly realized that his son-in-law ran this so-called lunch shop just to win the hearts of the soap servants.

"Childe, the little one still doesn't understand, why do you want to make so many meat dishes?" Huang Jingsheng thought about it for a long time and never understood the truth here.

"Hehe, the meat dishes are juicy, and there is beef bone broth at the bottom, so if you have enough oil and water, you will eat less rice." Li Zhongyi smiled and unveiled the mystery.

Huang Jingsheng nodded frequently and said, "Yes, yes, the meat dishes in our house are also juicy, so the rice eaten by the next person is much less." ”

"Well, my family used to be poor, and my grandfather could eat two catties of rice in one meal. There is really a group of big-bellied men, and these five cents are not even enough for rice. Li Zhongyi gently shook the folding fan, once this lunch shop opened, he would have a reason to gather merchants, and he could also solve the work problem of the families of soap workers, and he could count them in one fell swoop.

At noon the next day, Li Zhongyi ordered someone to erect a huge banner of "five pennies to eat enough", so that everyone who passed by the dock could see it clearly.

Because many people are illiterate, Li Zhongyi arranged two more soap servants, and when they met people, they said: Five pennies are enough to eat.

However, the soap servants shouted for a long time, but no one from the passers-by came to buy a "boxed lunch" to eat.

Li Zhongyi thought about it for a while, couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and hurriedly let the two soap servants go down, and replaced them with two female cooks to shout. (To be continued)

ps: To be honest, Sikong really doesn't want to shout the support of the monthly pass every day every day, this is too bad! However, Sikong is now not to mention rushing into the top three, and even the top five of the current new book monthly ticket list are difficult to guarantee.
