Chapter 945: Business
Fortunately, the other two felt that something was wrong, and they didn't give him all their share of the profits, so they were able to save a little money, so they hurriedly pulled people back, for fear that something would happen again.
Who would have expected that it was only halfway through, just after Baima County, he heard that the people in Zuo Jinren were spreading the matter of the Daoluo Tongbian, saying that the Dushui supervisor had invited the Holy Will, and the people who served in the Daoluo Tongbian this time could divide the land according to their merits, and the merchants could sign a deed with the people in advance to buy the fields they would divide in the future.
The field was newly opened up when the dredging and canal was cleared, and no taxes were levied for the first three years, and it would come from the yamen and then divide the fields. Whoever buys more than 10 hectares of land can calculate the number of acres of land he has bought, and sell goods in a camp where tens of thousands of people are said to be at the mouth of the sand valley.
The cousin was young, and the first time he came out to do business, he was just fine, and the other two who had been in the layman for many years immediately realized the benefits of it, and hurriedly came to the Shagukou camp to inquire about the situation.
Who knew that it was too late, and the nearby Xintian had already been robbed.
At this time, the two brothers were talking about their cousin, one said that he was greedy for beauty, and he was just going to pay it off on weekdays, and now he was delaying the opportunity to make a fortune; One said that he was young and did not know anything, and that he had lost money this time, and that he would take it as a warning in the future.
The little cousin had already suffered a loss, spent a lot of money to teach a lesson, and saw that the two of them kept training, and they really didn't like to listen to it, so he said: "It doesn't matter to me, it's more than ten days early, and I can't say that I have already been bought clean-you haven't heard, the fastest move is the merchant near the mouth of the sand valley?" How can a few of us from other places be able to grab the local ones? ”
He also said: "Besides, I don't know what the situation is in this matter, I don't know what the Luoshui is leading to the Bianqu, it doesn't sound right, besides, the Bianqu is dredged every year, and the embankment and dam are repaired every year, and it is not flooded badly every year, who knows what the situation is this time?" We only have a few dollars, that is, we can buy up to ten hectares of land, and the profit is limited, but the field will be flooded in the future, and the silver money earned this time is only afraid that it will not be enough to lose miles that day! ”
"Whew!" His brother scolded, "What kind of bullshit are you talking about! Today, it is Gu Tong's judgment that cares about this guide! How could he not have done what he did?! ”
Another person also scolded: "Those who are not sensible, they only knew how to run around in other states before, and they didn't know how to come back, what Gu Tongju did, there was never no way to do it!" He will be able to take care of this guide Luo Tong Bian, this guide Luo Tong Bian will be able to do it, he will do the dredging of the Tong Bian, then Xintian will never be flooded, you fool, you will not pick up the money in front of you, blocking your brother's way to get rich, we don't blame you, still quibbling here, see if I don't beat you well! ”
Sure enough, he raised his hand and made a gesture towards the little cousin to beat someone.
As soon as he heard that he was praising his fifth brother, Ji Qingling's ears pricked up, and he didn't even feel that he was noisy at the back, he only grabbed the chopsticks with his hand, and listened to it with relish.
For the sake of money, the table kept making a fuss, but it was not the kind of fuss, which sounded very interesting. However, it didn't take long for the original post guard to come out and bring two trays to Ji Qingling to serve food and porridge.
Seeing that the post guard was coming, the two brothers could not scold anymore, so they had to stop their mouths, and then used the silver money again, and ordered a few more things to eat.
Ji Qingling eats slowly, on the one hand, he is free today, and he is not in a hurry, but on the other hand, he still wants to listen to a few more words about the fifth brother being praised.
Sure enough, she didn't disappoint, the two brothers talked about it, and they recalled the past again and again, and praised and praised the things left by Gu Yanzhang that day, such as Fushouqu, white ash, Jimin Yuan, etc., and listened to them scold the current state official, saying that the surname Zhang, compared to the previous Gu Tongju, is not even enough to lift shoes, I can't wait for him to care about anything, now it is more and more chaotic, if it doesn't matter, maybe it is a little stronger than now.
After getting so many compliments for breakfast, Ji Qingling had a big appetite, and ate a whole Gu Yanzhang's palm-sized cooking cake with meat porridge, and when she heard it, the two brothers sighed, carrying their luggage, and were about to set off to return to their hometown with their little cousin, she thought about it, simply put down the chopsticks in her hand, and when the three of them walked by the table, she looked up and shouted: "Three of you are slow." ”
When the three of them stopped, she smiled and said: "I heard that you are from Ganzhou, and you are going to do this business of guiding Luo Tongbian - I have also lived in Ganzhou for a few years, and I can hear the local accent, very kind, and there are a few words, at this time, I said it in passing, you should listen to it as a joke." ”
The three brothers on the opposite side were suddenly stopped, and they were all a little dazed.
However, Ji Qingling didn't give them time to react, and said again: "A few people have already been to the camp in Shagukou, and they have also been to the water affairs in Shagukou, so they naturally know that they have done seventy-seven eighty-eight now-although there is no shortage of manpower and materials, but when the construction is completed, there are a few things that are lacking-according to the convention, I want to call pigs, sheep, chickens, and ducks in Zuojinzhou County, and I have to buy wine for celebration and reward." ”
"I'm not afraid to say a word accurately, I'm afraid that there are more than ten days left before the completion of this project, as long as I have the heart to do this transaction, it will always be in time, although it may not be as profitable as selling things to the people and officials in the camp, but it generally makes a lot of money."
After she said this, she saw that the three people opposite were stunned, and she didn't talk nonsense, just nodded, turned around and left.
Before he reached the door leading to the backyard, Qiu Yue and Qiu Lu hurriedly ran out of it, and when they saw that Ji Qingling was so dignified, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and shouted in unison: "Madam! ”
One said: "Early in the morning, why don't you call us!" ”
One said: "When I woke up and didn't see anyone, I was shocked by a room of people!" ”
The two arched Ji Qingling and walked into the courtyard.
The remaining three brothers stood on the ground, and they were a little overwhelmed for a while.
The little cousin reacted first, and said: "Where did this little lady come from, she has a good appearance, how can she speak so loudly, the little girl who is only a few years old is actually here to teach us to do business!" ”
But the two brothers did not speak for a long time.
After a long time, someone said: "I have inquired, if it is according to the original regulations, it should take more than a month to complete...... Isn't that a bluff to us? ”
The other shook his head and said, "I look at that little lady, she speaks very well...... Besides, Gu Tong is in charge here, and it was done half a month earlier, isn't it normal? If this is the case, there is really a big profit - others are afraid that they have not reacted yet. ”
"I just don't know if what she said was a joke or if she was serious......"
Speaking of this, the two brothers invariably ignored the little cousin, discussed a few words with each other, and then came to the door, found a handyman near the left, made money, and begged each other in a good voice to see how many ladies lived in the post station today, and which official family belonged to.
It's just a gossip, and the money is enough, so I asked as soon as I asked.
The handyman replied and walked away, leaving the two brothers with their mouths closed.
The elder brother stretched out his hand and said to his younger brother: "Third brother, pinch me, today's incident is not fake, right?" That must really be the wife of the Gu Tong judge......"
The younger brother didn't get much better, and said, "Second brother, if you step on me first, I feel pain, and it's not fake if I think it's not fake......"
He said dejectedly: "It turns out that there is such a good thing to be a Ganzhou person...... The general judge is no longer an official in Ganzhou, and this general judge still thinks about the people of Ganzhou...... Is today considered fortune and our own family hitting our heads? ”
The two stood stupidly for a while, and finally woke up, seeing that they had been delayed for a long time, they almost slapped themselves twice, and hurriedly grabbed their cousins who were still at a loss and hurried out, and went to the county and township to buy wine and meat in advance.
