[22] Yao's family

"It's back, hehe, 2o11, although your air is not necessarily fresh, and it is full of the strange smell of car exhaust, but this familiar sense of security is really incomparable to 1875."

Yao Fan quickly took off his robe next to the Tianhou Temple, wrapped it in the box containing gold, and ran home directly after taking a taxi.

Yao Fan's parents are retired, and when Yao Fan returned home, he told them about his adventures.

At first, the second elder didn't believe what Yao Fan said, and Yao Fan's mother thought that he had hysteria and was eager to take him to the hospital for examination.

Yao Fan hurriedly showed them the robes brought by the Qing Dynasty and the box full of 2o kilograms of gold, and the two elders bit the gold and confirmed it repeatedly before accepting Yao Fan's explanation with suspicion for the time being.

Yao Fan's mother was worried about her son's money-making plan: "Fanfan, do you really want to go to that ghost place again?" Mom is not worried! Look, now that there is so much gold, don't you say it's worth six million? Mom thinks you better buy a house, live honestly, and never go to that hellish place again. That's the Qing Dynasty! Mom watched the TV series, and it was easy for ordinary people to be killed if they were caught by officials! ”

Yao Fan hurriedly comforted his mother and said, "Mom, don't worry, I can use this ability at any time!" Your son is so clever, when he sees that the situation is not right, he can run back immediately. ”

Yao Fan's father, who had been silent before, spoke: "Listening to what you said is so amazing, I want to go to the Qing Dynasty to see what it is like there?" What are the people there wearing? What to live in? What to eat? Fanfan, if you don't bring your father, it's safer for the two of you to have a companion. ”

Yao Fan's mother hurriedly said: "That's right! That's right! Fanfan, you really want to go again, you must bring your father with you, it's too dangerous to be alone, you are a child, how good is it if the bad guy harms you! ”

Yao Fan had no choice but to tell his parents the details of the blood soul, it turned out that this blood soul could only take the host itself and the inanimate body to cross, so he could not bring the second elder.

"Dad, Mom, you can help me sell gold and purchase goods here with peace of mind, with this good way to travel through time and space, I have to use it well no matter what I say, who knows when I will lose this ability, then I will miss the opportunity."

Yao Fan's parents saw that he had made up his mind, and it was difficult to persuade him for a while, so they had to repeatedly tell Yao Fan to be careful in everything.

"Dad, Mom, I have a favor for me, I have a batch of books that need to be changed to traditional Chinese characters and old typographic typesetting, that is, the kind of typesetting where sentences are from top to bottom and pages are turned from right to left."

"Why is that? Then why don't you just find the version of Hong Kong and Taiwan? Yao Fan's father said.

"That's a solution, too, but I'm too busy to do it. Dad, you register a company and recruit some college students majoring in literature from the Normal College, and I also need you to help me get the things listed in this book. ”

"Fanfan, you haven't said what you're going to do, are you going to the Qing Dynasty to sell books?" Yao Fan's mother asked.

"Well, after earning so much money over there, I have to help them open their eyes to the world." Yao Fandao.

Yao's father looked carefully at the small notebook handed over by Yao Fan and frowned.

"Yao Fan, this matter of yours is too difficult, and according to the method you wrote, you may not be able to get it. Besides, didn't you go into business in the past? What do you want these things for? ”

"Dad, you try my method first, and if you can't get it, try other ways. These things are very useful for my personal safety. ”

"If you engage in these things, I'm afraid that something will happen......"

Yao's mother took out the book from Yao's father's hand and looked at it carefully: "Fanfan! You die! These ......"

The family discussed late at night, and Yao Fan finally persuaded his parents to participate in his crossing plan.

The next day, Yao Fan went to the company to resign and officially devoted himself to the cause of traversing.

It is said that Yao Fan's family of three ran all over the gold stores in Qingdao City with gold, carefully and carefully sold the gold in batches, and in two days, 2o kilograms of gold were all sold, and the net was more than 59o yuan in cash.

With more money in hand, it stands to reason that the traverser should open a factory in 1875. What made Yao Fan sad was that before the First Sino-Japanese War, the Qing government did not allow private individuals to set up new enterprises. Unless you open the factory in the concession and are protected by foreigners, you can avoid trouble. But where is the concession paradise, the factories opened by the Chinese will be investigated in a few days, and there will be no rebellion.

It is really impossible for him to run an industry in the Qing Dynasty and then train a group of workers to rebel. Taking a step back, even if you don't want to rebel, you just want to build industry to strengthen the country, which is not realistic before the First Sino-Japanese War.

"Revolution is not a dinner party." Yao Fan thought.

So Yao Fan started purchasing again.

This time, Yao Fan focused on the rigid needs of the Qing Dynasty - matches.

During the reign of Emperor Daoguang, matches were offered as tribute, and a box of eighty sticks was sold for one or two silver, and later with the influx of foreign matches, the price fell to 5o wen a box. But even if you sell 5o wen a box, in the Qing Dynasty, this is enough to buy a pound and a half of pork!

In the Qing Dynasty, most of the matches were used by eunuchs and wealthy merchants, and before that, they used a fire sickle or a fire knife to make a fire, and used a fire wool to lead it, which was very cumbersome. Of course, the common people could not afford to use matches, so they used flint or wood to make fire.

Yao Fan felt that if he lowered the price of matches to 1o wen a box, then he would face an incomparably huge market. Moreover, in the eyes of the Qing government, matches were a product that filled the market, and they did not compete like foreign cloth and homespun cloth, and would be attacked by the gentry class as 'competing with the people for profit'. And once the price is low, the Qing government will not be sensitive to realize that this thing will make a lot of profits.

2O11 A box of standard matches with 8o to 1oo sticks is only 7 cents. A box of 2ooo boxes is only 14o yuan.

Yao Fan found 2o match factories on Alibaba, and each factory ordered 5oo boxes, a total of 10,000 boxes, and spent 14o yuan.

Yao then rented a warehouse near Beiling Mountain, which he planned to use to store matches and other goods to be purchased in the future.

As for the remaining more than four million, Yao Fanquan was left to his parents.

"Dad, I'll hand over the warehouse I rented near Beiling Mountain to you, and I'll send it in when the matches arrive, and you old people must remember fire safety."

"Son, don't worry, Dad knows it." Yao's father patted his chest and reassured.

Yao Fan's father, Yao Peng, took out a camera from the cabinet at home, it was an old Seagull 4A-1O7 camera, and Yao's father had always treasured it and was reluctant to throw it away.

"Fanfan, you go and bring this camera this time, I have already bought the film for you, a full twenty rolls! When you go and take more pictures of the Qing Dynasty, I am very curious about what China was like at that time. ”

Yao Fan put the camera into his 9o liter travel backpack and carried it behind his back.

When the family came to the Tianhou Temple, Yao Fan said goodbye to his parents who came to see him off and repeatedly instructed him, and started the blood sacrifice, and Yao Fan returned to 1875 again.

Yao Fan's parents were in the distance, looking at their son and goods who disappeared in an instant, speechless.

After Yao Fan came back, he felt that his body was not unwell after blood loss, and Yao Fan thought that this was probably because his body was still quite strong.

Yao Fan looked up and saw that it was already noon, so he jumped on the wide-tire mountain bike specially prepared for this crossing, and rode in the direction of Qingdao City with a backpack full of his belongings.

When Yao Fan, who was riding a mountain bike, came to the city gate, he was already tired and sweating profusely. This road is not a road, it is completely off-road riding, and those who have played mountain bike off-road know that riding in the wilderness is the most tiring. After Yao Fan identified that the guard who collected taxes at the city gate was one of the three personal soldiers who sent the third sister back with Bai Dagui last time, this person also recognized Yao Fan from a distance. When he saw Yao Fan, he saw his own father, and when he came up, he was a thousand fights to the ground.

Yao Fan smiled and quipped: "You kid is not afraid of dirty clothes." ”

The soldier got up and said with a smile: "As soon as I saw Yao Ye, I couldn't help but worship deeply, you are a well-known good person in Qingdao, and you are so sympathetic to the people below us, which one is not willing to worship you." ”

Yao Fan smiled: "Yes, yes, you kid is very good at talking." It's strange to say, why every time I come to the city gate, I see either Bai Dagui or you, they are all acquaintances. ”

The soldier saw that Yao Fan didn't know his name, and hurriedly said: "Little Li Shishi and Bai Dagui are both the personal soldiers of Lord Wei, and the work of collecting taxes at the gate of the city, the adults don't have to worry about handing it over to others." ”

Yao Fan then understood, and said with a smile: "I see, but it happens that I don't have any silver on me today, what can I do?" If you don't come back to my shop, I'll reward you again. ”

Li Shishi squeezed his eyebrows and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Oops! Yao Ye, you say this, it's like I'm a debt collector, Yao Ye wants to reward me, and if you meet me in the future, just give me a little bit. ”

Yao Fan smiled and nodded: "Okay, then if you are short of money in the future, come to your brother Yao, and I will go to the city." ”

Li Shishi saw Yao Fan lifting him up like this, and he actually called himself Brother Yao, standing in place, he was a little stunned, and he was speechless in surprise. After reacting, he gave another deep bow excitedly in the back, got up and watched Yao Fan push the colorful and strange two-wheeled car into the city.

After Yao Fan pushed the cart into the city, he stepped on the bicycle under the attention of the surrounding passers-by, and rode quickly to the door of his shop.

"The owner is back! The owner is back! Host, you're back! ”

The first to notice Yao Fan was He Shicheng, who was guarding the door, and ran over while shouting, and took Yao Fan's backpack over.

"Owner, Second Master He is in the new store."

Yao Fan's eyes lit up: "He's fast, he's already opened the head office." ”

At this time, everyone in the house heard He Shicheng's voice, and knew that Yao Fan had returned, and another guy, Wang Chuannian, and housekeeper Luo Guanqun hurriedly ran out to greet him.

Yao Fan asked Luo Guanqun: "Guanqun, I'm not here for a few days, is it okay to be in the store?" ”

Luo Guanqun got up and replied: "Dongjia, you are not here for a few days, everything in the store is fine, Miss Su's injury is much better, Dr. Liu said, the girl is no longer in serious trouble, and now continue to recuperate the warm and replenished decoction, it is estimated that it will be all well in two months." ”
