Chapter 46: Cooperation
"Of course I know the wheat is not ripe, then, have you made wine? That kind of flamboyant? "Ah, it was attracted by the smell of wine.
"Well, it's just a little bit of fun, and the family is gone."
"Little girl, you're not right, we can be regarded as having a lifelong friendship, and it's a cooperative relationship, you can give me some to taste." Hmph, I know you saved me! It's round after tasting it, isn't it? She hasn't figured out what price she's going to sell it for.
Seeing that she was silent, the man gave Xuan Yi a look, Xuan Yi complained in his heart, and he asked him to speak only when he was stiff!
"That, Miss Su, we don't want to drink it ourselves, it's mainly because we are too short of silver, so we discussed with you, let's do business together."
Hearing a little sincerity, Qing Niang smiled and said to Xuan Yi:
"Although there is wine, there is not much of it, and it can't be sold for a few dollars, how can it be profitable to do business?"
"You're just a dead brain, won't you do more?" As soon as the black-faced boy interjected, Qing Niang was silent, she had already seen that this person was an official, but so what? If she doesn't do business, can she still be forced to fail?
"That, Miss Su, don't worry about it, this is a person who can't speak, can't this output be increased? If you don't have enough people, we can do it. ”
"I'm a boudoir woman, it's okay to have fun, if you cooperate with someone in business, and your family knows about it, you will be beaten to death, you better find someone else."
Xuanyi had nothing to say, the black-faced boy's face became even darker, and he waved his hand and told Xuanyi to go out.
The latter didn't dare to disobey, so he had to go outside, but Shuxiang stood firmly by the girl's side.
"You, you go out for a while, I have something to tell your young lady!"
"Say it, our young lady doesn't hide anything from the slave maid, and she can listen to anything." What do you think? Lonely men and widows. The man was so angry that the little maid dared to refute his words.
"To tell you the truth, my name is Si Xiu, and I am in charge of the personal guard camp, but a while ago, the grain and grass sent by the imperial court were blackened, and most of them were soil clods and impurities, and they were inedible at all!"
Is this the beginning of storytelling? She glanced at the blanket. The man could see that she didn't believe it, but she went on anyway.
"So, now I have to buy my own food to fill this hole, but I don't have that much silver on hand, so I have to do some business that makes money quickly, so I found you."
"Do I look like silver? Fast money? The brewing of sake is very slow, okay. ”
"Well, don't you know how to steam wine?"
Qing Niang listened, her heart also jumped, the still she designed is much better than the current fashion, if you buy other people's light liquor to steam, although the taste is much worse, but it can't stand a large amount, if the spirit can be sold at a high price, then the money is very fast.
She made all the parts in the blacksmith's shop, and she hadn't made them in one yet, and she came back to assemble them herself, just to keep it a secret. If the distiller is revealed, it will be easy for others to copy it.
"I know that this kind of craft will not be passed on, but you don't have so many people, I choose five soldiers to work, and then be responsible for sales, and the profit can be split in half?"
Listening to his sincerity, Qing Niang couldn't make up her mind for a while.
And if the still is sold to him? But they just said that there is no silver, and she doesn't want to sell it cheaply!
At this moment, there was a stalemate, Si Xiu sat on the chair and glanced at Qing Niang with his eyes, and secretly vomited in his heart:
"The little girl is very difficult, she has so many eyes! He had conceded to half the point, and he was still hesitating. If it weren't for the rainy day, why would he bother? This time the incident was obviously aimed at his Situ family, if you want to preserve your strength, you can't do it without silver. ”
"What you said is unreliable, there is nothing complicated about steaming wine, there is a special tool, you send someone to copy the tool, it will be no problem, how can I protect this craft?"
"So what do you say?" Qing Niang wanted to say that the gate was over there, just go out, but she couldn't and didn't dare.
"You write me an IOU, one thousand taels of silver, all my dividends will be deducted from here, in case it is exposed that day, you pay off the rest of the silver and we will pay it off, how about it?"
"Hehe, do you believe the IOU I wrote?"
"Believe!" If you don't believe it, you can't do it, but you have an IOU in your hand, it's a big deal to ask grandpa to ask for it, you are the leader of a personal guard battalion, and you can still beat my grandfather, and his old man is also from the military camp!
"Since you believe in me, I will live up to this trust, take pen and ink, I will write, our cooperation must be fast, Xuanyi will be fully responsible."
An IOU was written on a piece of paper, and the handwriting was strong through the back of the paper, which was extremely similar to the temperament of this person, and they were as sharp as a knife. She looked at the two words of repair, and there was a small seal, but there was only one word for repair.
"This small seal was given to the guard camp by the king, if there is any misfortune among the contemptible people, take this IOU, and go to the king's mansion to recover the balance."
After eating the reassuring pill, Qing Niang asked Shuxiang to change the tea for others.
"Where the general plans to set up the workshop, there is no place in our house."
"If you don't object, let's set it up in Yangling Village, I have a big house there, and the traffic there is also very convenient."
"Okay, I'll make preparations here, and I'll send someone over there to find you and ask Xuanyi, okay?"
"Just ask Xuanyi at the village entrance inn, how many days do you need?"
"Five days," she calculated, and five sets of stills could probably be made.
After the two left, she called Liu Song:
"That's the way it is, I'm going to send you, the technology is not afraid of being exposed, he wrote an IOU to this girl, let's go to the county seat together tomorrow, the blacksmith skills in the town are limited, and there are some places, I want to change it."
Liu Song admires Miss very much, she can do anything, even the leader of the border army has to stammer, and he promised her at the moment that he will cooperate with others and do a good job in this business.
The people in the compound all went out, on this day, Qing Niang saw the vinegar tank, so she teased the little dog to play, it was originally two, but she took one to the town, and the rest was only pure black, she gave it a name called Black Back.
I don't know why, the puppy suddenly ran to the door and made an attacking bark,
"Blackback, come back, is there anyone outside?"
The black back is very spiritual, and after a while in the village, it basically doesn't scream, but it yelled at Xuanyi and them a few times that day.
"Miss, Miss." There was a faint cry outside, as if it was calling her.
But after listening to it for a while, there was no movement, this will be Li Da is not there, except for himself, the scholars and leaves are busy in the backyard.
She looked at the black back, reached out and opened the door, and there was a person lying on her stomach outside, as if she had fainted.
The black back didn't scream anymore, maybe she didn't think it was dangerous, she turned the person over and saw that it was the Yan who was sold! Oh my God, how did she get it back?
"Scholar, leaf, come quickly." Everyone carried her back to the inner courtyard, and this person only had one breath left.
