Chapter 17: Set a small goal first

Yes, I am already in the foundation building period, not to mention anything else, my lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary people, isn't it a living immortal in their eyes.

"So we're the only ones now." Di Ning looked at Song Yiren's nervous face, and smiled secretly in his heart.

However, the technology of thousands of years and then is not an exaggeration to say that it is an immortal method.

"Then I'll go find a few people I trust absolutely!" Song Yiren was so excited that he was about to go out.

As a master of business, he knows too well how much profit an exclusive technology can bring.

"Uncle Song, wait a minute," Di Ning remembered the topic outside the gate just now, "What's wrong with the king today?" ”

King Di Xin was so happy that he often did something unexpected, so Di Ning didn't bother to guess.

"The king went to the Nuwa Temple in Panlong Mountain today to drop incense." Song Yiren was in a hurry to find someone to make wine, and replied absentmindedly.

Di Ning's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Is today the fifteenth day of March?" ”

"Yes, today is March 15th, which is Nuwa Niangniang's Christmas birthday." Song Yiren was thinking about winemaking, and as for the king's trip, he was only going to pray for incense, not going to war, so he didn't need to be nervous.

But Di Ning knew that King Dixin's visit to Nuwa Temple was a turning point in his life, and it was also the beginning of "Fengshen Bang".

Prior to this, King Di Xin was actually a good emperor, and it was written in the books of later generations: sit and enjoy Daping, all the people are happy, the wind and rain are smooth, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, the four Yi are bowed, and the guests are served.

Everything changed completely from the time he went to incense and ti poems, maybe it was the god Nuwa who inspired the ugly desires in his heart, maybe it was the calamity.

In that case, it is better to make some responses in advance.

Dineen remembers his mission – to keep the family going.

As for reminding King Dixin, it is necessary to be careful, because each has a different mission.

The mission of the hermit family is to ensure the continuation of the family even if the dynasty falls, so the biggest taboo is to reveal a direct connection with the royal family.

"Uncle Song, we have any business in the Great Princely State of the Four Roads?" Dineen asked softly.

The big is hidden in the court, the middle is hidden in the city, and the small is hidden in the wild.

The strategy of hiding in the dynasty is of course not feasible for the Di family, so it is to hide in the city.

To be a simple businessman was an existence that everyone needed but was easy to ignore in that dynasty.

Therefore, the Di family uses business to expand their own power, and they can also smoothly disperse their own family members to avoid the fate of destroying the family and destroying the family.

"All of them, but not many." Song Yiren was a little strange in his heart for Di Ning suddenly asking about this. The little master is dedicated to cultivation, unless it is a major matter, the rest is left to himself.

"That's it," Di Ning paused, and said cautiously: "From now on, gradually increase the investment in the four major vassal states, especially the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is even more important. ”

"Okay." Although Song Yiren had doubts in his heart, he immediately agreed without thinking about it.

"By the way, focus on Ji Fa Gongzi." Dineen added, thinking: This is just a small goal set in advance.

"Ji Fa Gongzi? Little master, we have a close relationship with Yi Kao. ”

Yi Kao is the eldest son of Xi Bohou, the name of virtue spreads far and wide, with the age of Xi Bohou, everyone is optimistic about Yi Kao taking over, so the family has been interacting with each other, all of them are the relationship of Yi Kao.

"Why did the little master let himself associate with the second prince of Xibohou? Isn't it a matter of reluctance? "Song Yiren is full of suspicions.

Suddenly, his heart moved, the little master's master was a fairy-like figure, did he know any inside information?

"Little master, is it..."I just wanted to say that it was Ji Fa Gongzi who would take over in the future instead of Yi Kao, but suddenly remembered that this kind of thing could only be understood and unspeakable, so he hurriedly stopped.

Di Ning smiled and nodded, Yi Kao Gongzi, he will die at the hands of Da Ji to save his father soon, what is the point of investing in him.

Of course, these things can't be told to Song Yiren.

"It's just right, taking advantage of the opportunity of brewing and selling wine, and sending more people from the four major vassal states." Dinen admonished.

This method is the most justifiable, and most of the people who go when the time comes are people close to their big houses.

"That's a good idea." Song Yiren nodded, feeling that the little master's mind was getting denser and denser, and he couldn't help but be even more happy.

"Uncle Song, I'll draw a few drawings later, and you find five good foundry craftsmen to build according to the drawings." Since the brewing and sale of sake has become a measure for families to deal with troubled times, it is necessary to pay more attention to it.

For the sake of secrecy, one person could not be allowed to build a complete still, so Dineh planned to divide it into 5 parts and assemble it himself.

Song Yiren nodded and walked out.

Dineen also began to get busy. There are many things to do next, the design of the still, the secret training of personnel, the selection of the site of the distillery, the construction of the cellar, everything must be carried out under the premise of secrecy, which makes the work more difficult.

The cellar is still needed, and the wine treasures of later generations are all cellared for decades, because the constant temperature of the cellar can maintain the quality of the wine. Besides, it is easier to keep and even keep secret when placed underground than in the open air.

In the next few days, under the guidance of Di Ning, Song Yiren began to brew wine in an orderly manner.

Di Hong and Di Yan began to sell grain.

However, the two of them are not as happy as they were at the beginning, because after a few days, there is not much grain sold, and in recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, the grain is sufficient, and the demand is not large, and the price on the market has slowly fallen because of their entry into the market.

The problem was that the grain they got from the family at that time was calculated at the price at that time, and for fear that Dinin would regret it, they couldn't wait to count it and immediately pay the money.

Now that the price is falling, the profit will only be less, coupled with the unsatisfactory sales volume, at the end of the day, the loss of labor is a great burden.

Crowded with people and shops, the capital's business district is bustling with activity.

In front of a shop, there was a faint sound of metal clattering, and on the right side of the doorway, a hammer placed diagonally on a copper anvil was depicted, which was the logo of the forge shop.

"Is Master Zeng at home?" Dineh's right hand held a long object wrapped in coarse cloth, and his left hand tapped a few times on the wooden door that had been open, and asked loudly.

Originally, I thought that I could draw a diagram of the still and hand it over to a foundry craftsman to create it, but it seems that I was overestimating the craftsmen of this era.

The parts that are created, some of which should coincide with two parts with a large diameter and a small one, some of which are holes for rivets that do not correspond between the upper and lower parts, and more seriously, the place where it should be round gives you a sharp and blunt egg shape.

According to Dining's request, the servants ran back and forth no less than five times, but the result was still crooked and could not be installed as a whole, and Dinin had no choice but to come to the door in person.

"Come in." A majestic answer came from the room.
