On a June day, just like a doll's face, the sky was still clear, but a gust of wind blew from the east, and the bean-sized raindrops fell down on the face.

The calm Guanhe gradually boiled, a restaurant called "Yumanlou", at this moment there was a burst of soybean oil fragrance in the back kitchen, only to see the oil and water in the pot boiling, and the chef on the side poured a plate of green vegetables into it.

"Pss

The sound of the explosion of green vegetables in the pot pulled back the other people who were intoxicated by the aroma of oil, and they looked at each other one by one.

"Little brother, fifteen catties of oil can't make a few tables of dishes, I see that this oil is so tangy, and the fried dishes must not be bad..." ”

Yumanlou is the largest restaurant in Yangzhou, here is next to the small Qinhuai River, there are countless guests who come here every day to feast, how can there be more than 100 tables of guests a day, each table of dishes is almost not less than 50 taels of silver, only 250 taels of silver, in exchange for the price of the dish is more delicious because of good oil, what is said is also earned.

Jade Scale's eyes widened, he thought that it would be very good to have a few dozen taels of silver a day, at least he had not seen dozens of taels of silver together since he could remember, but now it has multiplied several times, he never dreamed that just a few catties of oil a day can earn money that others can't earn for ten years.

Just about to agree, but when he thought of his cousin's words, Yu Liang shook his head: "Shopkeeper Zhang, my brother said that if your building is more than a day, it is impossible to settle the bill every day, so you can settle the bill with Sanqi." ”

"What is Sanqi checkout?" Shopkeeper Zhang wondered.

"If the shopkeeper asks for 300 catties of soybean oil a day, and the daily price is 250 taels, it will be 7,500 taels of silver in a month." What Su Lin said to him came to Jade Scale's mind, and he said it, "Sanqi checkout, that is, at the beginning of each month, thirty percent of the general account will be paid, and at the end of the month, thirty percent will be paid, and the remaining seventy percent will be paid." ”

"I see." Shopkeeper Zhang suddenly realized that this method of two settlements is very efficient, and a pair of account books is enough, but he can't help but admire.

"However, my brother has a reluctant request." Jade Scales observed the changes in the shopkeeper's face and found that his mind was only on soybean oil, and knowing money or anything was not a problem for the former.

Shopkeeper Zhang patted Yulan on the shoulder: "Don't be polite, I'm a Ba person, and I'm very straight!" ”

Only then did Yu Liang hear it, although the shopkeeper said official words, but the Wuling accent was very strong, and the people there heard that Geng was very straightforward, thinking that since people don't like politeness, they also said it directly: "It's not a secret, now the family is struggling, and the silver can't be turned, my brother hopes that the shopkeeper can provide raw materials, and the silver can be deducted from seventy percent at the end of the month." ”

"That's it?" Shopkeeper Zhang laughed, "I know, that's no problem." ”

In fact, Su Lin just wanted to get a sum of money first, which he used to buy real estate, buy raw materials, etc. Although he didn't know how much oil Yumanlou needed, he must have two or three hundred taels of silver a day, and if it was three percent a month, two or three thousand taels, it would be a huge amount of money in this world for a lifetime of food and clothing.

Su Lin is absolutely confident, as long as he is making food, what kind of oil makes the dish more fragrant, he knows it by smelling it.

Therefore, vegetable oil, a new thing, as long as a little news is released, can be sold well.

Since the business is to continue, it needs a factory to specialize in the production of finished products, whether it is the current oil or the future wine is flammable, you need a stronghold on the outskirts of the city, and hire three or two guards, and you are done.

Got ten taels of silver, Su Lin inquired everywhere, and looked at a manor outside the west of the city, the Zhuangzi is not big, only three or four hundred square meters, originally used to grow vegetables, these years there has been a lot of rain, plus Yangzhou itself is not very suitable for planting vegetables, the owner of the farmer has lost the farmer's wages for a few years, and as a last resort, he sold all his Zhuangzi, planning to go to the CD to see.

I have to say that fifteen catties of oil sell for ten taels of silver, and it can be said that soybean oil is sky-high in the world where Surin is located.

This Zhuangzi has several cellars that add up to a total of 100 square meters, but if you want to put it into use, you have to reinforce these cellars with stones and wood, the Jiangnan area is rainy, the soil is soft, this kind of cellar is easy to accumulate water and collapse, lay a layer of stone on the ground, and then reinforce it with wooden planks on the top, and make a wall with stones around it, and you have to add a top beam and column to put it into use.

These things are relatively expensive, especially the stones and pillars, Su Linguang's budget costs nearly a thousand taels of silver, but fortunately, Zhuangzi itself is cheap, as long as five or six hundred taels, and when the bill is settled at the end of the month, it can also be renovated, and you can also buy real estate in the city.

After dealing with these, Su Lin ordered a thousand catties of glutinous rice, which is another five or six hundred taels of expenses, but in this era when grain is precious, the government still needs to go through the procedures for using grain for wine and oil.

The next day, Su Lin went to Yumanlou to sign an official deed with Zhang's shopkeeper, and went to the government to check it out.

When Su Lin returned home on this day, it was already dark, and Fang's mother had already quit her laundry job and went to the house to help get soybean oil with Yu Scale, which was simple and effortless, but it was tiring when moving up and down.

In one day, the two of them made nearly 400 catties, and they didn't stop until the clay pot was not enough.

"It seems that there is still a shortage of manpower." Watching Jade Scale carry the last bag of oil residue outside, Su Lin couldn't help but sigh, "Eh, after so many days here, I finally have a landing." ”

It rained today and yesterday, the night was clear, the stars and the moon in the night sky, and the sea of stars was endless, which attracted people at the same time, but also revealed a unique mystery.

On the other side of the Guanhe River, singing surrounded this dwelling, and the workers and peasants were busy all day, and they were the happiest at this moment when they had no money to enter the tile bar.

The girl in the attic put down the piano, dressed in red, looking up at the starry sky, and did not know who the beautiful woman was thinking in her heart.

"There is a beautiful woman in the north..."Su Lin lay on a chair in the courtyard, slowly closing his eyes, but he didn't know who he was thinking about.

Freshen up, leaning on the river tower alone. Thousands of sails are not, and the slanting veins and waters are long...

"I'm chanting Feiqing's words again..."The girl laughed to herself, looked at the boat parked on the Guan River, turned around and entered the house.
