"Actually." Chi Qiu picked up the teacup, drank a cup, and said very calmly: "In fact, Brother Cai thinks too much, in the canal wharf, you can see all kinds of people, hear all kinds of opportunities and means to make a fortune, some things have already been done in the local area, such as stewed boiled and sesame oil chicken, but when you go to other places, you have the opportunity to stand out, this is probably the so-called tree to move the dead and the living." ”

"But don't you even think it's strange that you know how to refine sea salt? The sea is available to the east. ”

"What's so strange about this, there was a merchant who talked about it, we Wancheng people don't believe it, you must know how expensive the salt is, it must be extremely difficult to refine, people are willing to say, we are willing to listen, but in fact? Not by the sea, not by the lake, we all forgot about this, until I saw Weishan Lake, I remembered that there was such a thing, it turned out that what he said was true, the lake is so big, the sea may be bigger, but unfortunately I still don't know where to make salt. ”

Since he learned that Mrs. Yanhu wanted to see him, he had already gone through these statements in his mind many times: "It is often said that the times make heroes, and it is also a good opportunity for me to get rich, in Nanyang, I have also accumulated some silver, and I want to run some industries, such as soap, such as buying land, but unfortunately it is very chaotic over there, for the rich and unkind, and the officials do not act, I have to leave there after losing a fortune, and I have no capital, if it is not for the time when I fled from Yanzhou, I took out a piece of dog's head gold from a corpse......" Speaking of dog-headed gold, Chi Qiu obviously felt that Brother Cai was a little stagnant, and understood that this was also the most confused point for him, so his heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Even if I have that piece of dog-head gold, I don't dare to take it out, I still understand the truth of being guilty, so I planned to sell and sell stewed stew at the beginning to accumulate some capital, but fortunately, Dong Eniang dared to accept it, and I also hurried to make a move, and I couldn't eat it when it was left there, and I couldn't hold it, and I was still panicked." ”

Dong Eniang received the piece of dog's head gold, Brother Cai inquired carefully, that Chi Qiu couldn't even figure out the conversion ratio, and it was a fact that he was in a hurry to get rid of it, and Brother Cai's heart was full of confusion about Chi Qiu's words, but he couldn't hold any handle.

Chi Qiu's answer was very smooth, which also surprised Brother Cai, but Chi Qiu was also twenty-seven or eighteen years old at this time, and he would not be like other predecessors, he was "a blockbuster" at the age of seven or eight, and "famous all over the world" at the age of twelve or thirteen.

How many years of heroes did the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period have, and why is this? First of all, the instability of life, frequent wars, orphans and orphans are countless, the family can be said to not raise "idlers", children do things at the age of three or five, naturally precocious, and the countries are chaotic, even if they are civilian children, because of the war, they often go out to travel, a war is less than a year, more than a few years, it is impossible to fight every day, everyone will always talk in the barracks, people from all over the place, talk more, and there will be no less knowledge, the general trend of the world, the situation of various countries ordinary people know a lot, some noble children are the vision of the seven countries, Talk about the world, and talk about it horizontally.

With the increase in the time of unification, life is rich, and children are pampered

It is said that the ancients at that time were precocious, but in fact, women only cared about who they married, and men only cared about whose poetry was good and which girl was beautiful. During the Han and Tang dynasties, there was still some contact with the Western Regions and the scholar class of the surrounding countries, but in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, this part completely fell to the bottom, especially in the Qing Dynasty, the ruling class did not care about the outside world, how to talk about the people and the people?

Therefore, there will be all kinds of strange remarks, such as selling the surrounding land and raising funds for reform, such as building the capital of Ili, which is actually caused by the world's complete lack of understanding of the worldview and the system. The advice given was neither insightful nor far-sighted, even bloody. It's not as good as those lobbyists in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

In modern times, the children of farmers are in charge of their families early, in fact, this is also the truth.

The Wuyue where Chi Qiu is located has not experienced the Ming and Qing dynasties in the previous life, and the people-to-people exchanges and the views of the scholars from all over the country on the Wuyue Continent can be said to have their own merits, and they will not be done behind closed doors, but because they are too divided, some exchanges have become meaningless, just like Sparta, Sparta has been founded for hundreds of years, and there is no communication with Athens? But it is a belligerent system, and even if the Peloponnesian War is won, its commodity economy is not as close as Athens.

Coupled with the behemoth of the Lusong Imperial Kingdom in Jiangnan, once the manufacturing industry in Jiangnan with prosperous commerce and trade is opened, it will be difficult for the productivity of Hejian and Guanzhong to compete with it.

Didn't the princes of the river find out about this problem? Naturally, it will be discovered, so there is a war between the two alliances, the root of which is the formation of a unified demand and consciousness among the princes, but the Lusong court is naturally unwilling to see the unification of the river, occupy Qingxian County to prevent the Kite Dupu family from going south, support Yanhu, and collect the old department of the East China Sea Alliance, which should be the grand strategy of Lusong.

At this time, Brother Cai's expression was calm, he nodded, and said, "Shopkeeper Chi, maybe I'm thinking too much." ”

Chi Qiu didn't mind, an outsider, in ancient times, even if he fled from a different place, he must have been subject to many constraints, and without one or two generations, he could not integrate into the local society at all.

Hema is good, not prejudice. For displaced people, strict censorship is normal.

As for those who are outstanding among the homeless people, as the upper class of Yanhu, there will definitely be all aspects of the review, so that they can really accept and allow you to get a piece of the pie among them.

"It's okay, in fact, I'm also worried, when I first arrived in your place, many times I was at a loss, and I often thought that suffering losses was blessings, so as to make some good karma."

"So you give the credit to the patrolman?" Lao Yang, who had never spoken, asked.

"Oh?" Brother I don't know about this matter, so Lao Yang briefly introduced it.

"Yes, I have no relatives in Yanhu, and I can be regarded as dragging my family, with my ability, it is not that I can't ask for food and clothing, but I am really unwilling, my husband has a lifetime, always thinking about doing something, making a little money, to tell the truth, I want to go to Jiangnan, even if I float in the rivers and lakes, I have to see the world, but when I arrived at Yanhu, I found that this is a rare political and people, and all industries are waiting to be prosperous, and a little thing I know, it seems that it may be difficult to move forward in Jiangnan, it is difficult to make a difference, and I do have the heart to live in Yanhu."

Brother Cai frowned slightly, and heard him say that he was going to Jiangnan, as a local, he was naturally unhappy, suppressed his temperament, picked up the exquisite tea cup, and slowly took a sip.

After hearing Chi Qiu say that Yanhu was politically harmonious, he stretched slightly, but he still couldn't help but squeeze it: "When you get to Jiangnan, you can really boil the sea for salt." That's a profitable business, to keep you rich. ”

"Hahaha, Brother Cai is really joking."

"Oh?"

"The way of salt and iron is not really about how much." Chi Qiu said with a smile: "Last time I heard Lao Yang say that the country of the He Girl once relied on boiling salt to enrich the armor, such skills, I can hear about small people who are far away in the interior, can the big families by the sea not know?" ”

"You mean?"

Chi Qiu explained the original statement with Lao Yang again, Brother Cai understood, in fact, Lao Yang also said something, and it was not as thorough as Chi Qiu.

"I didn't think you would have this kind of knowledge."

"It's not knowledge, it's really that the person who boiled the sea for us at the beginning was a smuggler of salt, and there was too much bitterness and sadness. As soon as he said that, we understood. ”

"It makes sense, it makes sense, after all, there is little iron, if it is used carefully, the average farmer will repair it even if it is a hoe, and it will be used for ten years, and the farmers will not be happy to buy iron. It is still simple to eat salt, which every family has to use, the food is good, there is a lot to eat, there is a lot to buy, and there are relatively more taxes paid to the officials. Haha, but this reason? ”

Brother Cai's status is based on a knife and a gun on the battlefield, and he looks gentle and delicate, but in fact, he is not clear about government affairs.

At this time, Yu Cainiang knocked on the door, said a few words to everyone, changed the tea, and closed the door again.

"Lao Yang told me that day, you have a way to cook the sea." Brother Cai suddenly said, "We want to make salt." ”

"Ahh The stone broke the sky, and Chi Qiu almost dropped the teacup in fright.

"What's wrong? Scared? Brother Cai smiled.

"Sort of." Chi Qiu coughed twice and said in a low voice: "Selling illicit salt on the canal, not to mention anything else, once it is found, it will be beheaded on the spot, and it will not be tried." ”

Chi Qiu is telling the truth, it's okay in the Western Regions, there are countless natural salt lakes, salt is not lacking, but it's different in Guanzhong, salt is scarce, except for Hedong salt, which is the well salt of Bashu, as well as the private salt from the canal, the control has always been strict.
