Chapter 740: Little Reed, Big Fortune (Four Changes)

"Mr. Tang, I have something I want to tell you." The chief looked hesitant.

"Please."

The lieutenant chief looked at it, the adults and children were there, it was not very convenient, he pointed to a big willow tree by the courtyard wall, Tang Yi understood, and followed him.

Standing behind the tree, Tang Yi smiled and said, "If there is anything, just say it." ”

"Mr. Tang, that's the case, you are a decent person, weaving mats is something that sluts do, you won't point to the reed mat to live, right?"

Tang Yi smiled slightly, "Everyone has something to do, is it difficult to guarantee which cloud will not rain, and Yiduo will not be pressed?" ”

Seeing that the first move didn't work, Li Chang lowered his head and thought for a while, as if he had made up his mind, and stomped his feet hard.

"Mr. Tang, I will tell you clearly, you can give us the method of weaving mats, and I will give you five taels of silver a year." Li Chang has made a lot of money, and their family only earned more than four taels last year by weaving mats.

According to Tang Yi's method, the efficiency has been increased tenfold, wouldn't he be able to earn forty taels this year, and five taels to Tang Yi is not much.

It's just that Tang Yi remained silent, and the lieutenant chief was embarrassed again, so he had to continue to increase the weight.

"Mr. Tang, add ten taels more! Fifteen taels a year, but you can promise, no one can reveal it, only our family knows! ”

"Fifteen taels, that's a lot of money!" Tang Yi just smiled, Li Changxin said What, do you still want more, you can't be too dark!

Li Chang raised his eyebrows and glared at Tang Yi.

Tang Yi suddenly smiled playfully and said casually, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Li Chang was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

"This official's name is Tang Yi, and now he is the secretary of the Ministry of War, the imperial history of the right capital, and the minister of the nine-sided inspection." After Tang Yi finished speaking, he saw that the chief was completely stunned, and he didn't react at all.

In his dictionary, the end of the world is Yang Village, and the biggest official is the county magistrate.

I've got to find a title he understands.

"By the way, Jiajing thirty-five years, Bingchen Branch, I am the champion of that department, and I have also come to Tianjin to open the sea."

As soon as these words came out, the chief seemed to have been struck by lightning, his mouth opened wide, his eyes went out, he almost fell off, and suddenly fell to the ground, bumping and kowtowing.

I was dizzy and dizzy, and then I remembered to speak.

"Wen, Wen Kuixing! I've seen Wen Kuixing! ”

The lieutenant pulled his throat, and the ghost cried and howled, so frightened that several members of their family ran over, especially the two boys, staring at Tang Yi with bad intentions, and said in his heart, What happened to your father, believe it or not, reward you with a punch?

Before the two of them could make a move, the lieutenant jumped up and slapped each of them.

"Kneel down quickly, kowtow to the old man!"

Li Chang lowered his head, not daring to look at Tang Yi. Before he said that he didn't know his identity, he dared to bargain with Tang Yi and pay for it! After knowing the identity, the whole person was stupid.

Almost five years ago, he took the strong men in the village to Tianjin to sell mats, and there was a new word at that time, in which a young adult was enshrined, and the incense was extremely prosperous, and the crowd was crowded.

The chief still wondered, it's not Guanyin, it's not Guan Yunchang, where did he get so much incense?

When I inquired, it was terrible, this was the first six Kuiyuan, and he also opened the sea in Tianjin, and Tianjin was able to develop from a small acropolis to a prosperous place second only to the Beijing Division, all of which were the credit of this person.

Since then, the words Tang Yi, Zhuangyuan, and Kaihai have been firmly engraved in his heart, and when his two babies were young, he pulled the ears of the dolls and told them that they wanted to learn from Tang Yi and win glory for him.

Of course, he also knew that it was a dream, but he didn't expect that five years later, Tang Yi would stand in front of him alive.

"Great, sir, how did you end up here?" He stammered.

Tang Yi waved his hand and asked them all to get up, but the chief only dared to hunch his waist, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Alas, this official angered Tianyan a few days ago, and now he is going to Tianjin to recuperate, don't ask more, let's talk about the things in front of me."

Tang Yi said a word, but the chief heard it clearly, he also has his own set of logic, Tang Yi said that recuperation, it is definitely not true, which patient has ever seen who can plaster the wall with mud, have nothing to teach students, and play with reed mats?

I understand, my lord was demoted out of the capital by the faint king!

That's right, it's all written in the play, there was a Jiang Wei in the Three Kingdoms, did he go to the Sword Pavilion Tuntian! It must be that Lord Tang asked for the people's life, but the faint monarch did not listen to the persuasion and framed Zhongliang, and even Wen Kuixing couldn't stay in the imperial court, it was really dark.

The lieutenant never doubted whether Tang Yi was guilty?

People are Wen Kuixing, how could it be wrong!

And Tang Yi these days, what he has done makes the chief feel more cordial, what a good family, I guarantee that it is the master of Qingtian......

Many things should be moisturized silently.

For example, as soon as Tang Yi came, he put on the posture of a court official, pointing fingers, and doing that, most of the people would obey, but it was not necessarily whether they would be willing.

In the past month or so, Tang Yi has been recognized by the people, and if he throws out his identity, the effect is completely different.

"The method taught to you is actually a layer of window paper, which can be broken when you poke it. If you think about it, a person is responsible for more than a dozen processes, and there are many things to manage, it must be easy to make mistakes, and the efficiency cannot be improved, but if it is separated, everyone is responsible for it is simple and clear, only a few times so easy, of course, the speed will come up, practice makes perfect, and the efficiency will be high. ”

Tang Yi said with a smile: "Just your family can come out ten times faster than before, if the whole village joins in, how much faster?" So you want to keep the secret to yourself, maybe your family can earn a little more money, but that's all. Wouldn't it be better if the whole village joined in, wouldn't it be better to make more mats and make money together? ”

The lieutenant chief is so ashamed that he wants to die, Wen Kuixing, who is so big, still wants to buy it for fifteen taels of silver, what a shame!

didn't say a word, the lieutenant unconditionally obeyed Tang Yi's words.

That night, everyone in the village knew that Mr. Tang was a big man, so big that they couldn't even imagine it, and they also taught the big guy how to make money.

The villagers will still be skeptical, not very convinced.

The next day, the lieutenant took the lead in person, strictly followed Tang Yi's instructions, and divided the process into more detail, and the original eleven processes were divided into more than 100 processes. In the case of cleaning reeds, one person only cleans two leaves, and the rest, no matter how much, is given to the next person; The reeds chosen should be of strict size, a little longer, or a little shorter, and they will be thrown out......

Everyone was not used to it at first, and it was awkward to do it, much slower than before, but because of the face of the chief and the prestige of Mr. Tang, they could only hide their complaints in their hearts.

One day, two days, and on the third day, the big guys finally got used to it, and they felt the benefits of the division of labor.

On this day, the whole village made up 8,000 reed mats, and by the fifth day, the number exceeded 12,000.

From the head of the village to the end of the village, there were white reed mats everywhere, piled up with no place to put them.

The villagers saw it in their eyes, they were happy and worried, how can they sell so many reed mats?

Tang Yi called the lieutenant over and asked him to take two eloquent people to the surrounding villages for a walk, and in the evening, he brought more than a dozen customers.

It turned out that they were all landlords around them, and they had a lot of grain hoards at home, and they used a lot of reed mats, nothing else, one or two or two dollars and a hundred pieces of silver.

After they saw it, they paid for it on the spot.

These reed mats are of the same size, of high quality, and the most important thing is that the price is cheap, even if they buy them in their own village, a hundred of them, it will cost almost one or two or eight dollars of silver, which is six dollars cheaper, so fools will not buy it!

In a few days, 30,000 pieces were sold, and after deducting the cost, almost 300 taels were earned, which was equally distributed to each family, almost four or five taels of silver, which was more money than the hard work of getting Tianjin in previous years.

Li Chang farts and ran to Tang Yi's house to ask what to do with the silver.

"It's just a lot, there are still more than 20 days to celebrate the New Year, let's take it and rent a carriage, transport all the mats to Tianjin, and make sure you can earn more!"

"Yes, thank you, sir!"

The lieutenant immediately took action, but he was not willing to rent a carriage, how much would it cost, life is two-legged, isn't it walking!

He called all the young people in the village to pick up the horses, put them on the cart with cattle and horses, and those who didn't carry their burdens, brought a bag of dry food, and went to Tianjin together. The old and weak women and children left behind continued to weave mats.

In three days, the lieutenant came back with people, and the young men grinned so loudly that they couldn't stop laughing.

Their mats were neat and sturdy, and the amount was sufficient, and they were taken by several bosses of the Tianjin warehouse, and they ordered 100,000 at a time.

Everything I took was sold out, and I still owed 50,000 sheets.

People can pay all the deposits, five hundred taels of snowflakes and silver!

Up and down the village, who has seen so much money, they are completely crazy, everyone goes out together, sweeping away the surrounding reeds, that crazy energy, it is like grabbing gold and silver.

The big guy worked day and night, constantly weaving mats.

Before the Chinese New Year, another 150,000 sheets were rushed out, of which 50,000 were delivered, and 100,000 sheets, of which 10,000 were somewhat peculiar.

Lu Ying and Wang Yueying are both ingenious people, they made mats for a day, and their hands were blistered, Tang Yi was distressed to death, and he didn't let them do it. It's just that these two are still not convinced, they say in their hearts, isn't this treating people as vases?

As soon as the two of them discussed, they really played tricks, didn't the New Year come to an end, so they designed a kind of kang mat with festive words.

In the middle of the weaving of the words "Fu Lu Suxi", the mat edging also put in the effort, the use of festive red cloth, high-grade also added embroidery patterns, looks beautiful and generous, just with the New Year's festivities together. When it arrived in Tianjin, it attracted a wave of rush to buy.

10,000 mats, one dollar and six silver, were sold for 1,000 taels, which was more than ten times more expensive than a plain mat.

The number of people in the village and the village were stupid, a total of more than 3,700 taels, deducting the cost, in the month before the year, the net profit was 3,000 taels.

This is enough to make everyone faint, so much so that they don't know what to do, so they can only ask Tang Yi to come forward and help them deal with it...... (To be continued.) )
