Xi Hongdou is indeed not joking, she has a little money in her hand, and land, although the land cannot be sold, but the money in her hand should be enough to rent a small shop in Kyoto City temporarily.

"I mean it, now the food at home can't be sold at a price anyway, let's find a fleet to transport the grain by ourselves, and when we get to Kyoto City, we will also sell it ourselves, and we will definitely make more money than those second-class dealers." Xi Hongdou said that ordinary farmers do not do business, they sell it to grain merchants at low prices to make money, and grain merchants then transport grain to various places, sell it at a higher price, and finally make more money.

Father Xi frowned: "Red Beans, this is not a playhouse, if you don't sell it to the Cui family this time, the Cui family will not accept our food in the future!" "That's the biggest problem for the people in the village.

The Cui family is the largest grain merchant in Shili Eight Villages, and most of everyone's grain is also sold to the Cui family. This time, the Cui family lowered the price so low, and everyone did not dare to find other sales channels easily, for fear that the Cui family would never accept their own food in the future. They are peasants, and they don't know how to do business, so it's good if someone collects it, otherwise no matter how much grain there is, it will rot in their own fields, and they won't be able to make any money.

Xi Hongdou said: "Dad, I mean seriously, it's not a family, the current price of the Cui family is almost the same as letting the grain rot directly, is it possible that the Cui family can still kindly raise the price of food for everyone in the future?" This sentence hits the soul very directly.

In the past, she had seen foreign milk merchants who would rather pour expired milk down the drain than give it to the poor for free, which should be a truth, and in the end it was all for money. The farmers in the village don't understand this, and they won't be willing to let the grain really rot in their hands, and they will definitely sell it at a low price in the end.

Daddy Xi didn't expect Xi Hongdou to think of this level, and finally felt that what Xi Hongdou said made sense, since the Cui family had lowered the price this time, there was absolutely no possibility of raising prices in the future.

"Are you sure about this?" Daddy Xi asked.

The family was willing to let go of Xi's father, and Xi Mu said: "The most important thing in Yunzhou City is a caravan, if you want to transport grain, we can also find people." ”

Xi Lin also said: "It's not difficult to rent a shop for a short time, and if you can't succeed, you can try it first, if it really doesn't work, it's a big deal that this grain is thrown around!" ”

Aunt Xi saw that the men in the family had spoken, and she was speechless, and Sister-in-law Xi and Second Sister-in-law Xi didn't dare to interject, and their eyes all looked at Xi Hongdou.

Xi Hongdou said: "I'll leave for Kyoto City tomorrow, get a shop first!" ”

"Go ahead, send a letter when it's ready, everyone will cut the rice at home first, and the rice, if you can't do it, all the grain will be kept for yourself!" Daddy Xi finally spoke, the food he has grown so hard can't let these black-hearted grain merchants spoil it, anyway, he has other ways to get money, and he won't be short of money to spend for a while, he has food at home, and he can't starve to death left and right!

Xi Hongdou nodded, she wasn't joking about this.

Aunt Xi sighed: "You said before that you wanted to go to Kyoto City to do business, but I only told you nonsense!" "I didn't expect to go to Kyoto City now.

Xi Mu said at this time: "Then you can't let Hongdou go alone, you have to go with someone." ”

Xi Lin said at this time: "You can go with me." He usually helps the village chief calculate a few accounts, Xi Hongdou wants to rent a shop, and he can understand a little bit when he goes.

Daddy Xi nodded: "Then it's decided." ”

Everyone went to work after breakfast, Xi Hongdou counted the money in his hand, and I don't know if the housing prices in Kyoto City will be expensive.

The next day, Xi Lin was ready to go on the road with Xi Hongdou, this time the two rented a carriage directly, and the time on the road could be faster, although it was safe for Xi Hongdou to follow the caravan last time, it was also slow, and this time he followed the caravan, it is estimated that the cucumber vegetables can be cold.

The brother and sister went all the way to Kyoto City, and as soon as they arrived in Kyoto City, Xi Lin was also eye-opening.

As soon as Xi Hongdou entered the city, she really saw that there was a shop renting out, she asked the price by the way, and directly persuaded her to retire, twenty taels a year, or a lump sum, she really didn't have much in her hands!

"No, let's go to Xiao Zhi and ask first, he's from Kyoto City." Although Xi Hongdou also guessed that Xiao Zhi may not understand the market, he must explore the road first.

Xiao Zhi didn't expect Xi Hongdou to come back so soon, so he was naturally very happy, and learned that Xi Hongdou came back to find a shop to rent and sell food, so he immediately said: "You don't need to find someone, the Xiao family has an industry." ”

"Does the Xiao family have an industry? What industry? Xi Hongdou was stunned.

Xiao Zhi smiled: "The most prosperous commercial street in Kyoto City is in the north of the city, the Xiao family has four shops, followed by three in the east of the city, two in the west of the city, and the south of the city is for the poor, and there are also three, all of which are ready-made shops!" ”

Xi Hongdou listened to so many industries of the Xiao family, and his saliva almost didn't stay, the Xiao family's background is really not ordinary...... Yourself this ...... Is it really to "marry into a wealthy family"? A feeling suddenly rose in my heart that I was about to turn a sparrow into a phoenix!

Xi Lin was already stupid, and hurriedly said, "These are all your family?" Didn't fool me? ”

"I can't fool my second uncle!" Xiao Zhi said with a smile.

Xi Hongdou squinted his eyes at this time and asked, "In that case, can you get a place for you, don't delay your family's business, just give me a small place!" "The Xiao family's fingers can make her rich with any leakage in her fingers!

Xiao Zhi smiled and said, "There happens to be a shop in the south of the city that is empty, if you want to open a grain store, it is also suitable." "There are many residents in the south of the city, but most of them are poor, and they can't sell anything else.

Xi Hongdou nodded, feeling reliable, but still asked: "I use your Xiao family's shop like this, the master and the lady are ......" Will I think she is very annoying!

Xiao Zhi thought about it for a while, and said: "They don't care about these either, you can use them as you like, but if you don't worry, I will directly put the shop in the next hire list, and it will be justified for you to use it." ”

Xi Hongdou was about to laugh, but hurriedly waved his hand: "This is not good, I feel like I want your property, or you can rent it to me cheaply!" "Don't make it look like she's being fostered......

Xiao Zhi smiled, Xi Hongdou really thought too much, but when Xi Hongdou said so, he said, "Then two taels of silver for half a year." ”

"Deal!" Xi Hongdou smiled, only two taels in half a year! Xiao Zhi knows a lot about her own shop, and she must also know the rent market, and this price is completely the same for her to use. Although what she said was good, she still wanted to save some money if she wanted to be serious!

Xiao Zhi said hello to his family, and then took Xi Hongdou and Xi Lin to see the shop first, Xi Hongdou's face was full of happiness, the area was large enough, and there were a lot of things piled up behind.

"The shop here is basically used as a warehouse, and the hall here can be used directly." Xiao Zhi said that he is also the son of a member of the household department, and he also knows how to operate these things.

After this incident, Xi Hongdou understood Xiao Zhi again, and looked at the rampage of the young man who knew more.

"Yes!" Xi Hongdou said, but still asked: "Do you need to go to the government to handle anything to do business here?" "In modern times, you still have to apply for a business license, a health certificate or something.

Xiao Zhi nodded: "The household department handles the paperwork, and you will have to pay taxes in the future, but I will find someone to handle this matter for you, you don't have to worry about anything." ”

Xi Hongdou directly gave a thumbs up and said, "Thighs, I hugged my real thighs properly!" ”

Xi Lin also smiled happily: "Brother-in-law is amazing!" ”

Xiao Zhi was very satisfied, and a sense of accomplishment arose.

"Let's clean up first, and you can go home first." Xi Hongdou said.

Xiao Zhi said: "Remember to go home at night, my father and mother will visit relatives, and I will not be at home these days, and my second uncle will be comfortable to live." ”

Xi Hongdou nodded: "Okay!" Just now she also saw that there was an empty room in the back hall, and she could live in it after cleaning it up.

Xiao Zhi went home first, and then asked a few people to come over to help, Xi Hongdou also cleaned up quickly, and the other goods were stacked in another room, and the others were picked up for ventilation. Xi Lin took the opportunity to write a letter and send it back to Xijia Village first, and then waited for his own grain to arrive.

A few days later, the Xi family finally received the letter, Xi Lin was not at home, and the person who read the letter became Xi Mu, although Xi Mu was not as literate as Xi Lin, but he finally read the content of the letter.

"It's done, let us transport the grain, my brother-in-law's shop only charges a small amount of money." Xi Mu said.

Daddy Xi nodded, and then said to Xi Mu: "Go find someone to come and help, the rice is finished, and the rice will have to be laborious, so load the truck and pull it all away!" "If Xi Hongdou's business starts this time, his own three crops of grain will not be sold in the future.

Xi Mu went to find the old and young masters in the village, and after coming and going, the news of the Xi family's own grain store spread out, and many villagers also came to ask, wanting to find a new market for their own food.

The Cui family soon got the news, but they scoffed at the Xi family's actions.

"A group of old farmers with their backs to the loess and facing the sky, do you know what business is? In a few days, the Xi family will be finished! Tell the people below that this year, and in the future, they are not allowed to collect the Xi family's grain! The old man of the Cui family pouted and said, what the Xi family is doing now is to make it clear that they are working against him!

As soon as Boss Cui's words fell, a young girl came out of the inner hall and said, "Dad, what are you talking about?" ”

Boss Cui smiled: "Xue Ying is here, what did Dad say about business, you don't understand." ”

Cui Xueying is fifteen years old, just past her prime, dignified and beautiful, and she is a good age to be married. The people who come to the door every day to say goodbye are about to collapse the threshold, but Boss Cui just doesn't let go, and he really can't look down on those men who come to say goodbye. He has a son and a daughter, and his son will take over his mantle in the future, he is forty years old before he gets a daughter, and his daughter is a little padded jacket in the palm of her hand, and she can't marry too badly, those poor ghosts and lazy people naturally don't want to hinder his eyes, so as not to spoil his daughter!
