Chapter 5: Selling New Silk
Through his teary eyes, the bacon saw the little young master jumping on the platform of the bamboo building and shouting. I also saw the eldest young master coming out of the house in a hurry and rushing here.
I even saw the eldest lady of the Liang family twisting her waist and facing the eldest young master. Seeing this scene, the tears on the bacon's face were even more, and he couldn't wipe them clean, and he also pasted the blood on his palms on his face.
"Brother Yun, there are no flyers in the sky this time, where are you going?" Liang Qi stopped Yun Zheng with a smile.
Yun Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Miss Liang is here to collect the cocoons, you should go to the patriarch, his old man is the person who talks here, and Yun Da is a teacher." ”
"Not necessarily, I think you're a stupid girl who is busy watching your house, you can wrestle if you pick a piece of water, it's so stupid."
"Why are you still blocking my way when you see everything, and you don't see that her hands and feet are broken?" Yun Zheng's anger rose all of a sudden, in his heart, bacon was much more important than the Liang family's chicks.
After speaking, he bypassed Liang Qi, squatted on the ground and picked up the palm of the bacon to look carefully, fortunately, he wiped the skin, took out the clean linen he had just taken out from his arms, dipped a little unfinished water from the bucket, helped her clean the wound, and then took a dry linen cloth to carefully bandage her palm, and then removed the linen cloth when it was scabbed.
"Pull up your trouser legs, see if your knee is injured, you worked all night last night, and you were very tired and told you not to do it, but you didn't listen, hurry up and pull it up, the blood is oozing."
Yun Zheng helped the bacon to wrap his knees again, it is not easy to bandage here, the bandages are always running around, no matter what, just tie a big bow indiscriminately and it's over.
"Okay, you go back to sleep, I'll go fetch water." After Yun Zheng finished speaking, he picked up the bucket and hung it on the flat shoulder, and arched his hand at the stunned Liang Qi and went out of the village to fetch water by the river.
The bacon felt that he was about to fly, the young master ignored the beautiful lady of the Liang family, but came over to help him bandage the wound, although such an injury is almost nothing, I don't know how many times I have suffered since I was a child, I have never bandaged it and it is not good-looking, but at this time she doesn't care about anything, and she no longer cares about the blood stains on her face, squatting down with a smile and saluting the eldest lady of the Liang family, and then hurried home, the second young master is running over without shoes, and it is not good to wrestle.
Liang Qi stood in the middle of the village, feeling that everyone was watching his jokes, tears were rolling in his eyes, but he didn't fall, how could this be reasonable, how could it be unreasonable.
"Miss, since Yunda doesn't leave you any face, let's go, let's not collect the silk from Dousha Village, the government will collect taxes in ten days, I see what these poor ghosts will do to pay taxes." Steward Liang whispered in the back to help the eldest lady come up with ideas.
Liang Qi's red eyes immediately widened, and he looked at Steward Liang strangely and said, "What does it have to do with whether I have face or not?" Collecting cocoons is business, and losing face is a private matter, how can the two be confused, can it be said that as long as I lose face once in the future, the Liang family's business will have to do one less piece? If this continues, won't the Liang family be finished? ”
Steward Liang was horrified by Liang Qi's eyes, and quickly lowered his head to admit his mistake, now the Liang family's business in Doushaguan is Liang Qi's eldest Miss Liang has the final say, and she never dares to offend this aunt.
The old patriarch came out of the bamboo building with a smile and saluted Liang Qi from a distance, this is the custom: "The eldest lady is here in person, the old man is grateful, please enter the bamboo building to drink a cup of tea, and then talk about business after a while?" ”
Liang Qi immediately put on a smiling face, bent down and said: "It's time to collect the big cocoon again, how dare the Liang family be lazy, please see, Liang Qi brought all Huang Chengcheng's good copper coins, drifting money, lead money, and iron money, but there is not a single one, or the old rules, we are two plus three, such preferential conditions are only available in your Dousha Village." ”
The old patriarch stretched his neck and glanced at the money box, indeed as Liang Qi said, it was all good money, looked left and right, pulled out his sleeves embarrassedly, and retracted his hand into his sleeve.
Liang Qi smiled and glanced at Steward Liang, and Steward Liang immediately put his hand into the sleeve of the old patriarch, only to see that the sleeve was tumbling violently, and Steward Liang's face became more and more ugly.
After pushing his hand out of the old patriarch's sleeve for a long time, he looked at the smiling old patriarch and said, "You must know that the price given by the Liang family is already the highest price in Dousha County, if you don't let go, there will be no way to talk about this business." ”
Seeing that the old patriarch still had the same expression and was still smiling happily, he was sure that he was not smiling at himself, but really had the bottom of his heart, and sighed and said to Liang Qi: "Miss, Doushazhai hopes that the price of the cocoon will be on par with the price in August last year." At that time, it was March, but I didn't use last year's price. ”’
Liang Qi frowned and didn't understand, March new silk, this is a convention, the price will naturally drop if there are more goods, there is almost no silk in August, so the price is high, the price difference is very objective, does it mean that Doushazhai really doesn't want to pay taxes? Liu Xiancheng plans to show his skills this year, and he will definitely not relax on taxes, this is a good way for him to make political achievements, impossible.
She suddenly saw Yun Zheng who came back from carrying water, and suddenly realized that with this guy in Dousha Village, of course she wouldn't care about the mere 100 Wen tax, and her heart couldn't help but be full of disappointment.
"Sell new silk in March, and sell new grain in May. Heal the sores in front of your eyes, but tear off the flesh of your heart. I want the king's heart to be turned into a candle of light. Not according to the Qiluo feast, only according to the house of escape. Miss Liang, most of the profits of the people's hard work in a year are occupied by you, and it will be difficult to do it in the future with the lowest cost, at least in Dousha Village, Tang Nie Yizhong has already issued such a feeling hundreds of years ago, Miss Liang is familiar with history books, and she must not know the stakes, right? "Brother Yun Shi spoke up for the villagers today, don't you feel biased? If I set a precedent of high-priced silk, the Liang family's business will not be able to gain a foothold in the entire southwest, even if I know the stakes here, other silk merchants will not think so, it has always been the nature of businessmen to seek profit, as for the well-being of the people, the safety of the world, there are naturally officials to worry about, not a business like me can think, please forgive the little sister for what you said, since the business is not successful, Liang Qi will leave, and the silk of your dousha village may not be able to sell at a high price in August. Once the businessmen can't eat up the profits in one go, they will wait with their mouths long, waiting for the profits to fall, until they are full, and then they will do things according to the logic again, does Brother Yun Shi think so? “
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "There will always be a way, the silk of Dousha Village will always be sold at a high price, this is your first offer, I don't count, starting from your next offer, every time you open a price, the price of the silk of Dousha Village will automatically rise by one percent, since you tell me the rules of the businessman, I will use the rules of the merchant to talk to you slowly, go well, do not send." ”
