Chapter 101: People are stupid and money comes quickly
Naf's horse neighed, and then began to stomp its hooves impatiently on the ground.
Nav smiled: "Wait a minute, my baby is hungry." People are in good spirits at happy events, and today they will also open meat and feed it some concentrate feed! So saying, he unloaded a sack from the carriage, grabbed a handful of yellow and golden things from each hand, and walked to the horse and fed it.
Li Feibai's mind was still on the tobacco seeds, thinking about where to find a good piece of fertile land and hire a few people to take care of it. You have to be careful to grow tobacco leaves. He listened to Naf's horses eating crunchy, and said that they ate soybeans, and said to himself, "Naf doesn't look very good, but his heart is good." He was too poor to eat, and he didn't want to prepare concentrate feed for the horses. Looking up casually, he was so shocked that his jaw shell almost fell to the ground, and he quickly jumped up, took Naf's hand to feed the horse and asked, "What is this?" ”
Nav said a name.
This name is too strange, Li Feibai has never heard of it, it is estimated that it is the name of the place of origin, and said: "I didn't ask what it is called?" It's why you have these things! ”
Nav smiled bitterly: "I wandered around the sea by boat, and once I came to a country, which is rich in this kind of thing, but unfortunately it is too hard for people to eat, and it is used to feed pigs and sheep." I was confused, and I heard that the final destination of our ship was the Ming Dynasty in the Kingdom of Heaven, so I exchanged two glass beads for a lot of this kind of thing, thinking that the Ming Dynasty was rich and raised a lot of pigs and sheep, and then I would specialize in planting this kind of thing, and then sell it to the people to feed the pigs and sheep, and I would definitely make a windfall. Who knows, only when I arrived in Daming did I know that Daming's livestock ate forage, at most with some bean grains. No one knows this kind of thing, and no one dares to risk letting their big animals eat it! No one dares to let the animals eat it, let alone plant it, and I don't have the money to buy land to plant, so this thing is equivalent to smashing it in my hands. Throw it, alas! Keep it, it's useless? When I thought of going around the interior, I exchanged a Persian knife inlaid with precious stones for a carriage, and piled all these things in sacks on the wagon, thinking that they would be used as fodder for the horses. ”
Li Feibai hurriedly said: "How many are there now?" ”
After a moment's thought, Naf went to the carriage to check it again, and said, "There are a little more than four sacks!" ”
Li Feibai was thinking about where to find some corn two days ago, but at this time, the corn appeared alive in front of his eyes. The way he looked at Naf changed. What kind of liar is this liar who pretends to be crystal with glass, this is simply a big gift from God to see his hardship in Daming! said: "What other treasures do you have in the car!" ”
Naf shook his head and said, "Except for some glass beads and other things, and my homemade grinding tools, nothing else?" ”
Li Feibai couldn't help but be disappointed, and secretly warned himself not to be greedy, he already had three sharp weapons in his hands: glass, corn and tobacco, and no matter how greedy he was, he would be punished by God. He said, "Nobody wants these things from you, I want them!" How much are you going to sell these things for? ”
Nav waved his hand and said: "Childe is willing to take me in to make glass, and give me 10,000 taels of silver every year, just like my reborn parents, how dare I ask Childe for money!" It's all for you! ”
Li Feibai smiled and said, "Then I'll thank you!" Suddenly, he remembered the allusion of buying horse bones with his daughter, and said secretly: "I can't lose a big one because of a small one!" Dao: "We have an ancient saying in the Ming Dynasty, which is called "no merit is not punished", which means that you can't take your things for nothing! So, I bought tobacco seeds and corn for 10,000 taels of silver! ”
Nav thought that there was something wrong with his ears, or that Li Feibai was joking, but he didn't take it seriously in shock. At this time, he saw Li Feibai take out an envelope from his arms and take out a silver ticket from inside. Li Feibai handed him the silver ticket and said: "This is the silver ticket of Daxing Yinzhuang that you will pay when you see the ticket, with a face value of one thousand taels, you take it first, and count the deposit I paid!" ”
Nav had never seen a silver ticket, but he had heard of such a thing, so he took it and said, "Childe is not joking!" ”
Li Feibai said: "I'm not kidding! He said: "The other nine thousand taels, I'll give it to you when I get to Jiyuan!" ”
Nafu believed that what Li Feibai said was true, and hurriedly put away the silver ticket and said, "Thank you, son, thank you, from now on, I will not give up!" ”
Li Feibai said: "I can give you the silver, but there is a request!" ”
Nav said: "Son, please speak!" ”
Li Feibai said: "You have lived on the ship for more than a year, and you must have many friends who are begging for a living in the sea?" ”
Naf said: "Yes! After thinking about it, he stretched out two fingers and said, "At least more than two hundred!" ”
Li Feibai said: "I said before, I like to collect talents and strange things, you write to them, tell me how generous they are to you, and let them find more talents and strange things to find me in Jiyuan." Whatever I like, there will be a great reward. If you don't like it, I will entertain them with delicious food and drink, and give them valuable gifts! ”
Nav nodded, thinking about who to write to. He is going to write to those who have a good relationship with him and who are good to him, and to hell with those who have a bad relationship with him! As for how to write the letter, he also had a general idea, he must be realistic, slightly exaggerated, and focus on describing that he has lived a king-like life from now on. Finally, I have to add a sentence: people are stupid, there is a lot of money, come quickly.
At this time, the lid of the pot was rattled by the steam, and Nav came back from his contemplation, quickly opened the lid of the pot and stirred it with a spoon, and said, "Childe, let's drink soup!" ”
Li Feibai asked casually, "What soup?" ”
Naf said: "Dutch onion soup! ”
Li Feibai didn't know what kind of onion the Dutch onion was, so he leaned over and took a look, and it turned out to be an onion. What's the taste of the soup made from onions? It's still exotic, he has no appetite at all, and said: "I'm not hungry, I can't drink!" Then he said, "Nav goes, change inns with me to live!" ”
Nav is now also a rich man with a thousand taels of silver, how can he still be crowded with the cattle. Li Feibai didn't mention that he would also change to live in an inn, so he immediately said, "Where are you going?" ”
Li Feibai said: "Just follow me!" ”
The two drove out of the inn in a big car, came to the inn where Li Feibai and they lived, and after asking Xiao Er to open an extra room, he asked Nav to take a hand, unload all the bags of corn, and carry them into the house.
Nav wondered in his heart, could it be that my bags of things are not feed for livestock but treasures, but I don't dare to disobey Li Feibai's orders, after all, I have to live with other people's silver now, and carry a bag of corn upstairs. didn't know that these corns were a hundred times more precious than treasures in Li Feibai's eyes.
Qin Meng never slept, sitting in the house and waiting for Li Feibai to come back. Hearing movement in the backyard, I looked through the window and saw that it was Li Feibai who was back, so I hurriedly went downstairs to greet him.
Li Feibai said: "Shi Zhen is asleep? ”
Qin Meng nodded and said, "Sleep!" Glancing at the sack on Li Feibai's back, he reached out to pick it up! Li Feibai shook his head and said, "There are still two bags on the car, you go and carry them!" ”
Qin Meng nodded and walked to the backyard stable.
Li Feibai and Nafu took the two sacks to their house and put them away, and Qin Meng also walked in with a sack in one arm and put it on the ground.
Nafu was surprised that Qin Meng was fatter than himself, and his strength was still so great, and he said in his heart: "This guy must be porcelain fat, it is better to provoke less in the future!" He yawned and told Li Feibai to retire to his room to rest.
