Chapter 19 Seven Clans and Five Surnames

Under Qin Qiong's earnest teaching, Sun Xiangfu finally understood what it meant to be loyal to the country, although he didn't think that loyalty to the country was to serve the country, but Li Shimin, the king, was worth investing a little loyalty, and Qin Qiong, the face of a kind person, Sun Xiangfu naturally wanted to give it, so when Qin Qiong said that he would pay Sun Xiangfu a thousand yuan of fish money, Sun Xiangfu categorically refused, at most he could only ask for half the price, five hundred yuan.

Seeing Sun Xiangfu so happy, Qin Qiong immediately ordered Fu Bo to go to the account room and give Sun Xiangfu a full amount of 500 yuan, which is 500,000 yuan. It is higher than Qin Qiong's annual income, of course, that is not counting the output of vocational fields and food estates.

The market price of Chang'an yellow eel is 70 wen a catty, loach is 60 wen, Sun Xiangfu sent more than 10,000 catties of fish to Chang'an this trip, which is a loss of 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, but 200,000 or 300,000 yuan can buy an official office, and it is cost-effective not to want it, with an official body, no one can shout and kill him, in the Tang Dynasty, except for the emperor, other people killing officials are equivalent to rebellion, and few people dare to touch this red line.

500,000 yuan, enough to fit a few big carriages, Sun Xiangfu naturally will not be stupid to take all the copper money back, the silk cloth of the Tang Dynasty is also a hard currency, and the silk cloth can be directly made into clothes, so Sun Xiangfu converted all the 200,000 yuan into silk cloth, and converted 200,000 of them into gold of equivalent value, about 20 taels, and the last 100,000 yuan, Sun Xiangfu borrowed a carriage from Fubo and pulled it to Dongshi to prepare for purchase.

Two hundred catties of white stacks, thirty thousand dollars, that's right, the price of one pound of white stacks is actually sold for one hundred and fifty wen, which is two or three times more expensive than copper coins of the same weight, and this is still with cottonseeds, rare goods, expensive is expensive, but even at this price, Sun Xiangfu wants to buy more, but unfortunately people have so many goods now.

100 needles, 100 threads, 300 sheepskins, 50,000 money, and then chicken seedlings and piglets, there are professional chicken farmers in this period, but no one can develop the scale to a very large scale, generally by the dealers to buy in the self-employed, and then resell to people in need, Sun Xiangfu only bought a few hundred chicken seedlings and more than a dozen piglets on the market, but he informed the dealers of the address of the happy village, and when they received the goods from the self-employed, they could be directly sent to the happy village, and they would be paid extra money.

After the remaining 20,000 yuan, Sun Xiangfu came to the wharf, and bought a big boat like Qinfu, carrying about 50 stones, and now there are many farmers who learn from Happy Village, driving boats to fish in the big river under the fish cage, with these boats, while the Weishui is not frozen, you can catch more fish.

Early the next morning, Sun Xiangfu returned to Xingfu Village with a boatload of supplies.

"Let's move our things quickly, all of them will be moved to the public house, and everyone will distribute them together at dinner."

Sun Xiangfu will not hide anything from the villagers, especially when the benefits are distributed, at dinnertime, the old and young in the village, including the nursing babies, are gathered in the big house of the commune, both adults and children are sitting, but the children love to squat in the corner of the wall, listening to Sun Xiangfu on the podium give orders.

"Everyone has worked hard for more than a month, today, it's finally time to return, see that pile of silk cloth is not, according to the head, each person to make two body clothes, don't worry about not enough, only a lot more, this is an autumn coat, before the first snow, each person at least have to make a set of sheepskin pants and sheepskin jackets, make a layer of silk cloth, stuff some white stacks into it, cover sheepskin, comfortable and warm, this is everyone's winter clothes."

Covered with sheepskin, silk cloth bottom, a thin layer of white stacks in the middle, in this era, even if it is a rich family in Chang'an City, the clothes on the body are just like that, as for the fur, that only a few powerful people wear it, the happy village is not rich enough to the point that everyone wears fur, in the leather store, Sun Xiangfu asked the price of those things, an ordinary mink fur has to be at least five runs, better, to sell more than a dozen, and the size is enough to make a collar, if the whole piece is made of mink, the price is at least hundreds.

"Good ······"

The villagers burst into warm applause in the public house, a habit brought by Sun Xiangfu to everyone.

After everyone was excited, Sun Xiangfu told everyone in detail about the process of selling fish, and after learning that the price of yellow eel in Chang'an had risen to seventy or eighty wen a catty, the villagers knew that what was in their cellar was treasure.

According to the data reported by Sun Dali, in the fish pond, all the yellow eels above the thumb have been completed, there are a total of 237 jars of yellow eels, about more than 20,000 catties, there are loaches, 352 cylinders, about 35,6000 catties, the reason why loaches will be so much more than yellow eels, is because the loaches have a short growth cycle and fast reproduction.

Now these five or six hundred tanks of fish are stored in the villagers' cellars, and they will be fed and checked every day, according to observations, there is basically no safety problem, and more than 300 ponds, there are still many yellow eel loach cubs, which can be left until next spring after the warmth, continue to feed.

In addition to these fish, the fish cages in the village are caught every day, and there will be a lot of income, and this time, Sun Xiangfu bought a lot of needle and thread, but not all of them are used by the villagers to make clothes, but also to make fishing nets, Sun Xiangfu has bought a lot of needle and thread before, so that the villagers have tried to make fishing nets, and now the technology is basically mature.

In July, Yang Shunshui taught all the villagers to swim and row, and now as long as he constantly updates his fishing techniques, he can keep leading the way in the fishery.

In the following days, the villagers were busy again, after Sun Xiangfu and Nie Sanniang together took cottonseeds, made clothes, and so on to find a more efficient routine to teach everyone, all the villagers weaved nets, made clothes, and then when they were cooked, there would naturally be more ways to continuously improve the process.

Since Sun Xiangfu served as the head of the happy village, everyone has not had a day off, every day when they open their eyes, they know what they want to do, although they are physically tired, but the days are also full, and the most important thing is that the meals are abundant and full, which is the greatest expectation of the ancients, in such days, the construction progress of chicken farms and pig farms is also very fast.

On the ninth day of August, Li Shimin ascended the throne as emperor in Chang'an, of course, he did not need to greet Sun Xiangfu about his accession to the throne, so Sun Xiangfu, who was concentrating on farming and fishing, began to inspect his territory after breakfast, and only then did he go out of the door of the public house, and saw several fast horses running towards the village.

"Could it be that Li Shimin's will has come down?" Sun Xiangfu's face was happy, but he found that those people were not dressed as people in the official mansion.

"This is a happy village?" The leader asked, sitting on horseback.

"Exactly."

"Ask Sun Dalang from your village to come out and answer."

"It's Sun Dalang down there." Between these two questions and answers, many people who were eating in the public house came out to see the excitement.

The man on horseback took a look at the young Sun Xiangfu, and said, "My young master heard that there are a lot of fish in your village, and he wants to buy them all, and the price is in accordance with the market price in Chang'an, when will you be able to deliver?" ”

"Did I say I wanted to sell fish?"

Sun Xiangfu was very unhappy with this person's high-minded appearance, he was a person who was about to become an official, and he was not something that could be instructed by a random young master who could send someone casually.

"Don't be embarrassed, my young master is the eldest son of the Taiyuan Wang family, and if you annoy him, the Yiguo Mansion will not protect you."

"Taiyuan Wang?"

Sun Xiangfu was shocked in his heart, his mind flashed quickly, and he was a person with seven sects and five surnames, now he was in trouble, it seemed that Qin Qiong's name could only deter those ordinary magnates, but it could not suppress a top family like the Taiyuan Wang family.

"Why, it's interesting! My son-in-law just buys the fish from your village according to the market price, and he doesn't treat you badly, but you have to think carefully and don't make mistakes. ”

Sun Xiangfu looked depressed, he had a plan for the inventory in the cellar, as the so-called to catch a man's heart, he must first grab his stomach, just wait to catch Li Shimin's stomach, let the yellow eel loach in Happy Village become the royal offering in the palace, the foundation of Happy Village is stable, and even if it can't be eaten in the palace, wait for the middle of winter to sell again, the price can at least double or triple, and now sell it to others, the loss is too great, and the other thing is that the attitude of this Taiyuan Wang's dog leg makes Sun Xiangfu very unhappy, Brother Ke is a person who is about to become an official!

"No, the inventory in the village has already been booked, if the Wang family wants to buy it, I can sell some of the fish caught in the village in the future."

Sun Xiangfu can't regress, today he has fish, which was taken away by the Taiyuan Wang family, and tomorrow he has grain, and it will still be taken away by other families with seven sects and five surnames, so, he is in the Tang Dynasty, he will only become the lackey of these families, when will he be able to get out of the mix?

"What a boy who doesn't know the height of the sky, dare to brush my Taiyuan Wang's face, don't you know how to write the word 'death'?"

"Then do you know how to write the word 'roll'?"

After all, Sun Xiangfu is a young man, and he is the master who eats soft and does not eat hard, he was so threatened by a house slave, his temper suddenly became irritable, seeing his posture, Sun Dali even took out the firewood knife in the public house, and the other villagers also had the same, picked up the bamboo rake and the flat shoulder, and guarded Sun Xiangfu's side.

"A good group of Diao people, the master will let you know what it means to regret not being at the beginning, go."

The big man turned the horse's head and turned to leave, but the happy village did not quiet down because of this, half an hour later, another group of people came, Fanyang Lu's, their ending, almost the same as the Taiyuan Wang family, and then the Qinghe Urgy clan and the Boling Urge clan came together, one family was also offended, several families were also offended, Sun Xiangfu naturally would not compromise, anyway, the two families had already been offended before, so they simply knocked to the end.
