Chapter Seventy-One: There Are Disputes over the Allocation of Soybeans (12th Update)
As soon as the ready-made cold skin in Sanshui County came out, those who bought soybeans really didn't dare to continue to stretch out their hands, and the white noodles continued to be collected, no more, no less, and the pancake fruit sold better because of the addition of cold skin.
If you are eating these things, it is too expensive to spend five yuan, but here in the county, five yuan is just the price of eating a bowl of noodles in a noodle restaurant, whether it is taste or quantity, it is not as good as eating a pancake fruit and a cold skin.
All of a sudden, Sanshui County's two kinds of food, sales are booming, many people from neighboring counties come to taste it, and there are even more people who want to learn to do it, but they find that everything else is easy to say, but the spicy taste can't be made.
The people selected by Cheng County are all the kind of poor families, and if you want to get this kind of raw material, you must take your household registration to the county government of Sanshui County, and the other counties naturally don't care, the people say well, whoever is your parent official, you can go to whomever you want.
In this way, the prestige of Cheng County Ling is even better, even if the drought in Sanshui County is no longer controllable.

"Xiaobao, those people didn't move." On Zhang's Zhuangzi, Wang Juan said to Zhang Xiaobao with a little disappointment.
"That means they don't have a tough backstage, I know what to do, tomorrow I will make all the tofu scum into tofu, go to the surrounding counties to sell, and when I go to the counties, I will do it, three catties for a penny, call Erniu, this time let him disguise himself and help me do something."
Zhang Xiaobao first warned those people with that cool skin, and then began to retaliate, no one has been able to carry out this kind of threat in his hands, and those who dare to threaten him pray that they will never have any omissions and maintain a high position.
After Erniu arrived and left, everything was calm again.
"Xiaobao, you're a little too aggressive." After listening to Zhang Xiaobao's instructions to Erniu, Wang Juan persuaded with some concern.
"So what should I do? An organization that doesn't have a backstage and sells eggs, so do I have to back down? Zhou Xihu I can back down, after all, his uncle is a six-rank official, if there is a son of the state thorn in this organization, what if I give him all the chickens?
This world is so realistic, don't do it if you don't have the ability, I want to seek stability, but then I have to compromise with these people, and the chickens we raise will not be under our control, they really think that they are an underground family and can manipulate everything? Without 6,000 chickens, what am I going to eat locusts? ”
Zhang Xiaobao did not forgive those people at all, if those people came to talk to him first, he might have taken a compromise approach, but those people actually bought soybeans, this is a threat, or a threat without official support.

Five days later.
The price of tofu in various places suddenly plummeted, and Zhangjia Zhuangzi took out all the soybean cakes that were hoarded to feed the livestock, specializing in making tofu, other people's tofu is a penny a catty, and the tofu made with bean cakes is a penny and three catties, and the taste of tofu made by bean cakes is a little worse, but the price is cheap.
For a while, tofu was not easy to sell, and the purchase of soybeans also decreased, and the price of soybeans dropped significantly, which is not much, and the loss for people who bought a large number of them was not small.
Erniu also found his position at this time, soybeans were originally two pennies a catty, a catty of soybeans can make a little more than two catties of tofu, selling a penny of tofu for a catty, and making little money.
Erniu found some people in other counties, specializing in buying soybeans, a penny and a catty, someone asked and said to buy back to feed the livestock, this statement is not accepted by many people, Erniu does not care, he spent another money to buy some people, to the restaurants and teahouses around the country to publicize.
"Do you eat tofu? Eat? Then be careful, some people use beans that can't produce sprouts to make tofu, that is, the beans of the rabbit's mouth, the tofu made of this kind of beans will be cut off after eating, and you must ask clearly when you buy it. ”
"Do you usually eat fried beans at home? Do you feel sick to your stomach as soon as you drink water after eating? This is because the beans are too yin, otherwise, why does it smell so fishy? ”
"Do you buy beans? I'll sell it to you cheaply, really, I'll sell you five catties for a penny, really, don't run, my beans will never get sick. ”
Rumors spread in various counties in the state, and it was really nothing, everyone should eat what or what they eat, and some people even sneered at such rumors.
On the fifth day when the rumor spread, a complainant came to the Yamen of Sanshui County, and found someone else to write a complaint, suing a man who was walking on the street selling soybeans, saying that his father had eaten the soybeans and died.
It was clearly written on the paper, saying that the man sold them two catties of soybeans for a penny, many of which were rabbit mouths, and they were bought for the family to eat, and the father did not survive the night, and the county order sent someone to check, and the past officials came back to report that the old man was swollen all over his body when he died.
At the same time, the couple also said that they had no children, and they usually always ate soybeans and tofu, which were cheap, and the county commander Cheng Lingxiang was furious, and immediately issued a sea fishing document to the person who sold soybeans.
At this time, the entire state and neighboring states were shaken, the price of soybeans plummeted, and Erniu immediately charged the price of five catties of soybeans for a penny.
There are even rumors that it is the soybeans in Pizhou that are like this, and there is nothing else to do, and it is the soybeans of the past two years that will eat people to death.

"See, it's because of your momentary anger that people here don't dare to eat soybeans, how many people have you done this?" In Zhangjiazhuang, Wang Juan complained to Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't care, he still had a back hand, and said to Wang Juan: "The power of public opinion is still very strong, and then just find an excuse and turn around, don't those who sell tofu teach them to make dandan noodles, how many companies sell tofu in the whole state?" ”
"How did the old man die? Did you kill you? Wang Juan saw that Zhang Xiaobao had already made a good placement, changed the topic, and continued to ask.
"How did I kill him, how could I kill him and get tuberculosis? You didn't hear what the people in the yamen said, the old man vomited blood one by one, and it was too late to hit Remifeng immediately. ”
Zhang Xiaobao is really helpless, isn't it just that the means are inferior, who makes the time rush, the shopping mall is like a battlefield, what means can't be used?
"So, then how are you going to get everyone to eat soybeans again?"
"Didn't you say at the beginning, you can't eat soybeans last year and the year before that, and there are no other things."
"What about the loss of children and grandchildren?"
"The woman in the husband and wife is pregnant, and that's how I found it in the first place, and then I said that someone deliberately spread rumors, and the child was born, and the rumors were self-defeating."
"Anyway, your methods are not very bright."
"I'm thinking about the light, it's not that I can't, do I have time, the drought is great, and the top will send someone down to check the land, so that the land tax can be reduced or reduced, and it will come soon."
"It's all about you." Wang Juan found that he couldn't find anything wrong with the details, and he still felt uncomfortable in his heart, at least many people couldn't eat tofu during this time.
"I know what you think again, this is also simple, we will pay for it and let Cheng County Ling say that he has found those bad capitals in this state, and if they are burned, won't they be relieved." Zhang Xiaobao continued to add.
When Wang Juan heard that it was going to be burned, he knew that the money was from his side, and his face was a little gloomy, "It's all burned, it's a pity, you have to use 1,800 taels of silver, right?" ”
"Almost, but it's not a pity, the soybeans are burned, we will get those ashes, and then make soy sauce, the big deal is to sell more soy sauce in the future, the dean grandfather used to do it, grandpa used to fry it, fried the beans, made them into powder, and put salt or something on it is soy sauce."
Zhang Xiaobao added again.
"Huh? That's not what we used to eat, right? Wang Juan was a little unconvinced.
"Yes, I used to eat even soybeans that I was reluctant to put in, and I put the coloring directly, you just think, the retail price is only one yuan a bag of soybean soy sauce, that bag is a pound of weight, how much is a pound of soybeans, how much is a good bottle? See what's inside? ”
"Then I'll never eat soy sauce again." Wang Juan was really a little scared.
"Is it okay not to eat, burn so much, you have to consume some at home, the farmers will send it, and the family will give fifty catties to taste it first."
Zhang Xiaobao said jokingly.
A turmoil belonging to a quasi-family is considered a thing of the past.
Zhang Xiaobao's side has been arranged, from the beginning to the end, there is no mistake, but those who have harvested soybeans in Pizhou are not, they found that the beans can no longer be sold, and they want to transport them elsewhere, and the people over there have long been on guard, seeing that it is the soybeans in Pizhou, they will drive away directly.
The person who proposed to buy soybeans now regretted it, he knew that all this was done by Zhangjia Zhuangzi, and he wanted to refute it, but found that the county magistrate of Sanshui County was actually standing behind Zhangjia Zhuangzi, trying to find other people in the state, and those people were afraid that they would not be able to hide from it.
"What to do? I can't sell it for a penny or ten catties, and the people here don't eat it, and the original tofu sellers have changed to sell the one called Dandan Noodles, and the money earned every day is even more than selling tofu. ”
One of the people in this improvised 'organization' was the first to complain that he couldn't afford it, and that he was ready to wait for the drought to sell soybeans at a high price.
"Hao Zhuguo, can you not say such discouraged words? The beans can't be sold, we can make dried tofu and transport it away, who can find out then? ”
The other person was a little dissatisfied with the frustrated look of the previous person, and proposed a new idea, and when the others heard it, their eyes lit up, and they thought that this method was feasible.
