"I don't want to!" Gao Fei didn't even think about it, so he immediately opened his mouth to answer the question asked by Gao Yunniang.

A hint of strangeness flashed in Gao Yunniang's eyes, and she asked curiously, "Why don't you want to?" ”

"If you don't want to, you don't want to, how can there be so many why?" Goofy replied.

Gao Yunniang frowned, thinking that Gao Fei didn't understand the most critical point, that is, his father Wang Dao was the prime minister of the dynasty. So, she solemnly reminded: "Yu'er, your father Wang Dao, that is the prime minister of the dynasty, a great official under one person and above ten thousand......"

"I know that he is the prime minister, and I also know that the prime minister is a great official under one person and above ten thousand, but so what?" High Flying Road.

Gao Yunniang said: "Since you know that he is the prime minister, then you should also know that once you go to him and the father and son recognize each other, then you are the son of the prime minister, and you can live a life of fine clothes and food in the prime minister's mansion under his protection, and you no longer have to starve and freeze here." ”

"I know what you're talking about." Goofy said lightly.

"Now that you know everything, why don't you want to go to your father and get acquainted with him?" This has always been the strangest place for Gao Yunniang, so she has to ask to understand.

On this issue, Goofy had already thought about it last night. He was mistaken for a son by Gao Yunniang because he looked exactly the same as Gao Yunniang's son, but in fact, he knew better than anyone else that he was not Wang Yu, but Gao Fei. As for where the real Wang Yu is now, whether he is alive or dead, he doesn't know.

Putting this issue aside, if Director Wang was really his father in ancient times, then he would not recognize Director Wang, because he was an illegitimate child, and even Director Wang himself didn't know about his existence. Besides, even if he recognized Director Wang's father and son, and there was that jealous Mrs. Cao in the house, he would not want to live a good life.

And Director Wang is from a family, there must be a lot of rules in the family, he doesn't want to be too constrained, instead of living in a family with rules everywhere, it is better to be a flat-headed ordinary person, live a worry-free life, at least you don't have to care about this and that rules.

The most important thing is that he has a brain, in his opinion, in ancient times, there were business opportunities everywhere, as long as he used the knowledge he learned from modern times, he could use it to make money in ancient times, make a lot of money, and build a big business empire that belongs to him with his own hands!

Therefore, even if he doesn't go to the father who is the prime minister, he can mix very well, and even become a rich and rival figure in the future.

And now, he sees a business opportunity, and he also wants to use this business opportunity to earn his first pot of gold in ancient times!

"Yu'er, why don't you speak?" Gao Yunniang saw that Gao Fei had not said a word for so long, so she asked.

Gao Fei was pulled back to reality by Gao Yunniang's words, and replied directly: "First of all, my father doesn't know about my existence at all, if I rush to recognize each other, maybe I will be driven out by my father's subordinates as a madman before I see my father himself." Secondly, her father's main room, Mrs. Cao, is a very jealous woman, she can't even tolerate her father having a woman, how can she tolerate the children that other women give birth to her father? In the end, my father is the prime minister of the dynasty, under one person, above ten thousand, and from a family, there should be a lot of rules in this kind of family, the more rules, the more constraints, I don't like to live in that environment. Besides, I'm used to living alone with my mother, and I don't want to be separated from her anymore. ”

When Gao Yunniang heard Gao Fei's words, she felt that Gao Fei analyzed the problem very thoroughly, and when she heard Gao Fei's last sentence, she immediately felt very relieved. Such words come from the mouth of a five-year-old child, and no one will believe them when they are told to them.

But Gao Yunniang saw it with her own eyes, is it really as her son himself said, the gods opened his mind?

Gao Fei noticed that Gao Yunniang's eyes were already moist, and his face was full of relief, he knew that his mother would not ask him such a question again.

"Yu'er, you've really grown up!" Gao Yunniang hugged Gao Fei in her arms, very relieved, although there were tears on her face, she was very happy in her heart.

Gao Fei's face was tightly pressed against Gao Yunniang's chest, following Gao Yunniang's breathing, and his ears could hear Gao Yunniang's heartbeat. Time passed little by little, and Gao Fei saw that Gao Yunniang didn't mean to let go, so he took the initiative to push Gao Yunniang away and asked directly, "Can I ask you something?" ”

"What's the matter?" Gao Yunniang rearranged her emotions and replied casually, "You ask." ”

Goofy asked, "How much does it cost to buy a pound of salt?" ”

"It depends on what kind of salt you're buying, and the price of each salt is different."

"What kind of salt is there?"

"In our salt market in Wujiang County, you can generally only buy two kinds of salt, one is the brine salt that you dumped today, the market price is about three big dollars a catty, and the other is the coarse salt that is slightly better than the brine salt, and the market price is about thirteen big dollars a catty."

"Is there any other salt besides brine and coarse salt?"

"There is another kind of salt, that is, refined salt, this kind of salt is the best salt in the salt market, very fine, and the selling price is extremely high, the market price is about 30 yuan a catty. This kind of salt is generally only bought by rich and noble families, and ordinary people can't afford to eat this kind of salt at all, so this kind of salt is only sold in relatively prosperous places such as Beijing and Sanwu, like our small place like Wujiang County, even if you want to eat, you can't buy it, you can only cross the river to the capital and Sanwu and other places to buy. ”

After listening to Gao Yunniang's words, Gao Fei carefully calculated in his mind. Although he had not yet seen what the so-called refined salt looked like, he could be sure that the table salt he had brought with him from the modern era was, without a doubt, the best salt of his time.

If he sells the salt he brought, he can exchange it for some money, and then use this money to buy some brine salt, and then use what he has learned to refine it, and then he can get refined salt.

Since a pound of refined salt can be sold for thirty dollars, he can create his own wealth by selling refined salt, thereby changing the existing living conditions.

As soon as he thought of this, Gao Fei immediately said to Gao Yunniang: "The bag of salt I opened in the room just now is exactly one catty, can you take out that salt and sell it?" ”

Gao Yunniang frowned, looked at Gao Fei suspiciously, and asked, "You sold the salt that the gods gave you, and you can't get used to eating the brine salt, so what will you eat in the future?" ”

Gao Fei's face showed a thief smile, and he said to Gao Yunniang: "The fairy has already told me the method of making refined salt, and we can eat as much as we want in the future, not only that, but we can also sell the refined salt made." The market price of refined salt is not 30 big dollars a catty, then we will sell 20 big dollars a catty, and you also said just now, we have never sold refined salt here, it can be said that there is no market, as long as we start selling, there are definitely people rushing to buy, and then the wealth will roll in......"

Without waiting for Gao Fei to finish speaking, Gao Yunniang immediately stretched out her hand, covered Gao Fei's mouth, and said nervously: "Fortunately, this is in our own house, if your words are spread out to let people know, once you are sued to the government, you must be arrested and punished." Do you know that selling all kinds of salt without permission is a felony, and it is a death sentence! ”

The salt and iron official camp began in the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, and the subsequent dynasties and dynasties have continued the salt and iron official camp, and the control of salt and iron is extremely strict.

However, in Gao Fei's view, the government of this period may not have such a strong control over salt and iron. As the saying goes, if you don't have a little adventurous spirit, how can you achieve great things?

Gao Fei forcefully broke Gao Yunniang's hand covering his mouth and asked, "How far is it from the county seat?" ”

"I haven't been to the county seat, but I've heard that it's a long way from here, about thirty or forty miles away."

"Since this is so far away from the county seat, it means that the government is just as far away from us, in that case, then what else do you have to worry about? The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, if we only sell it around here, the government will not notice it. ”

"No way!" Gao Yunniang said categorically, "My mother never does illegal things, and you are not allowed to do it, even if my mother dies poor, she will never sell this salt!" ”

Gao Fei sighed heavily, and shook his head helplessly, if his body hadn't become smaller when he crossed, then he would have to do it.

He saw Gao Yunniang's resolute attitude, so he said: "Since this is the case, then we won't sell salt, let's use salt to exchange with others for some things we need, okay?" ”

"No! This salt can't be exchanged for other people. Once you exchange the salt, others will know that you have refined salt, our family is so poor, how can there be such a valuable thing as refined salt, but it will arouse the suspicion of others. Therefore, we can only eat this salt ourselves, and we must not let a second person except you and me see it, otherwise, our family will be in great trouble! Gao Yunniang said bitterly.

"Is Yun Niang at home?" Just then, a woman's voice came in from outside the house.

When Gao Yunniang heard the voice, she turned around and walked outside the house, and as soon as she lifted the curtain, she saw a middle-aged woman with a bloated figure walking towards her from outside the courtyard.

Gao Yunniang recognized this middle-aged woman at a glance, she was the mother-in-law of Jia Liu, the next-door neighbor, and everyone here called her the sixth sister-in-law, a famous long-tongued woman in this area.

"Sixth sister-in-law, why are you here? Sit in the house, sit in the house! Gao Yunniang hurriedly entertained.

The sixth sister-in-law stopped when she walked to the door of the house, and said embarrassedly: "Yun Niang, my family has a guest, the salt at home has been eaten, I want to borrow a little salt from you, and when the first month comes, I will buy it and return it to you!" ”

I'm really afraid of what's coming, why don't I borrow it early or late, but I come to borrow it at this time!

An embarrassed smile appeared on Gao Yunniang's face, and she said to the sixth sister-in-law: "Sixth sister-in-law, this ...... I've run out of salt at home......"

Gao Fei suddenly squeezed out of the crack in the door, pulled the corner of Gao Yunniang's clothes with his hand, and said loudly: "Mother, when my uncle came yesterday, didn't he bring a little salt?" ”

"Huh? Your uncle brought salt yesterday? I don't know. Gao Yunniang only felt a burst of heat on her face, her lie was unexpectedly exposed by her son, and she was really embarrassed.

"Oh, my uncle gave me the salt as soon as he came, and I put it in the room with my own hands, so it's not surprising that my mother doesn't know."

The sixth sister-in-law heard that there was salt again, so she said to Gao Yunniang: "Yunniang, I'll borrow a little salt, don't need too much, and when the first month comes, I'll let your sixth brother buy it and pay you back." ”

The matter has come to this point, no matter how much Gao Yunniang doesn't want to give it, it won't help. Besides, as her neighbors, Jia Liu and his wife have indeed helped her a lot. Although she poked out the salt to Gao Fei, fortunately, this guy was not stupid, and even said that it was sent by her uncle, so that even if the sixth sister-in-law found out that it was refined salt, there would be no fuss.

So, Gao Yunniang said to the sixth sister-in-law: "Sixth sister-in-law, I really didn't know that the child's uncle brought salt. In the past two years, you and the sixth brother have helped me a lot, I have always been grateful, this salt is in the room, you can go with me to get it, you can take as much as you want, and what else to borrow! ”
