Chapter 143: One Account, Two Calculations
Life has to be lived, you can't be scared to live just because the emperor deigned to buy some toilet water. Lanling and I sat stupidly for a long time, but we were too embarrassed to take the initiative to talk to me once, which made both of us uncomfortable. There is not enough money in the treasury, to build roads, to build bridges, to prepare for war, to provide disaster relief, Li Zhi also wanted to use tricks in Tubo at this time to win over the ministries of Nanzhao, so he contributed his private money, but his private money was still not enough. I remember what I said to Lanling when I gave advice at that time: "Don't be afraid to spend money on these things...... "Okay, now when it's time to spend money, I have no money, and I will become a big wrongdoer."
The inner government purchased 1,000 catties of flower water, according to Lanling, it was paid in cash, and it was purely a trap for me. It doesn't seem to be the same as the legendary Li Zhi in history, this guy is a slippery head. Why don't he pay in cash, and confuse the concept of cash silver, which is obviously a robbery, I don't believe that he doesn't know the truth that silver is cheap and copper is expensive, and he has lost nearly forty percent of his income back and forth, and I have no place to redress my grievances.
"Not really, right? The emperor's big Long Wei said that if I wanted to sell him cheaply, he would be able to do it, and he came out with such a way to exchange money for silver...... "This is Lanling, and I dare to say two whining words, "Even if you want a workshop for nothing, you want a secret recipe for nothing, and I don't dare to hide it privately, right?" ”
"Where did you go?" Lanling was a little twisted, thinking that I was sarcastic about her, a little daughter-in-law who had done something wrong, and she didn't dare to show her face when she turned her back to me. "Since ancient times, there have also been emperors who have secretly done business. But the things that can be used to deceive people cannot be done by the mediocre, not to mention that the saint is a wise king. This is also no way, how can the inner government have so much spare money to spend, and even the project of Xingqing Palace has been stopped, so I picked out this money, and I don't want to order more goods at a time. ”
Lanling's words are also full of grievances, my victim is wronged, and her words are also wronged. Speaking of which, even the profiteer Li Zhi was wronged, and he was stupid. For the first time, I heard that the emperor was short of money, and he didn't even have money to repair his own house. The Empress Dowager Cixi cut the land and paid the reparations to celebrate her birthday and build a lot of construction, you are a big man in the Tang Dynasty, and the emperor of the two Heng who bullied the surrounding countries all over the world, as for it.
"The treasury is so empty that you don't even have this money?" It stands to reason that this is a major national event, and the emperor should not be asked to pay for it. "Last time I heard them say, isn't this year a rich harvest, which is rare in the past?"
"There's a lot of money, but heck, it's not the point." Lan Ling saw me being verbose, and twisted his body a few times, "How many people understand what you said?" Do you think that the emperor of the treasury can spend it if he wants to? There was no reason to take a large sum of money to sell the bird's beak. To sow discord and do those miscellaneous and unsightly things, the household department will be able to allocate the money? There is a fixed amount of money the emperor uses in a year, and if he wants to use more, he will come up with a reason. The reason is not sufficient, not to mention that the household department does not recognize it, and even the commander can jump out and point fingers. "Lanling also felt that the royal merchants were a little embarrassed, and they had a stinky face." When the emperor was alive, he was accused by several old officials in court because of the renovation of Xingqing Palace, and more than once. was scraped in front of the ministers, who could bear it? Are you the same way you take care of it? If you don't say it, it is inevitable that there will be accusations, which official dares to take the responsibility of not seeing the benefits and approve the money? There is a fixed amount of money in the treasury and how much money will be used to see how much benefit it will see. The thing without a shadow is that you can't live peacefully when you take the money, do you think the emperor can come as much as he wants? ”
Also, investment should be effective, how much money is spent to build roads, and how many soldiers to raise are all things that are a sure thing. The money for sabotage in enemy countries can be more or less, and there is no effect in the short term, and it is all reported by the person who spent the money, and no one dares to take this responsibility. In this era, there was no special secret service. All of them are under the unified management of the Ministry of War. There is no reason for the military department to reach out and ask for this money.
When the emperor is so cowardly, he can tolerate other people's accusations. If you want me to be the emperor, who dares to have an opinion, copy the house, first copy the bottom of the sky. Li Zhi is obviously bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and he doesn't want to provoke the big officials in the court, so he picks on me, who has no power. Still changing the concept, is there still a royal law? Is there still a law? Forget it, we can't afford to mess with it.
It's not easy to do, the distillation workshop has not been fully completed, and now the outside order place has been booked for half a year, the emperor has inserted this lever, and even the people who have paid the fixed money are gone, once this thing occurs in business, it will be over, this stinky is not the Wang family, it is the Chen family. Who did the Chen family recruit and who provoked whom?
"This matter is a cooperation between the two families, I think you should say hello to the Chen family, after all, it is nominally the business of the Chen family, and I can't be the master of the two families alone." If Lanling comes forward, it's easy to say. I'm going to talk about bad dishes, and the most taboo thing about doing business in partnership is to unilaterally cut it first and then play it. "Or you wait, I'll ask someone to find the fourth child, and you two can talk." Because of the success of the flower water workshop, the father-in-law delegated power, and the fourth child killed himself, and has become an emerging force among the sisters of the Chen family.
Lan Ling pondered for a while, "Okay, you go and call her." This happened suddenly, and it doesn't make you embarrassed. He looked at me and said apologetically: "I understand what you mean, you are afraid that the inner government will get this benefit in the future, and once the money comes easily, your hand will be stretched longer." Today, I will reassure you, it is estimated that this will be inevitable in the future, but business is business, and the more you want to make money in business, the more you have to abide by the rules of business. Besides, the royal family can't do the dirty thing of competing with the people for profit, and they don't dare to let the officials know about the trouble. ”
yes, can you not worry about it? In the whole day, the policy of ignoring business and valuing agriculture has looked down on other people's businessmen, and they have spit on businessmen everywhere. I'm shouting on the street now: The emperor takes the lead in doing business and is still playing tricks! I don't know what the end will be. Fortunately, if this concept is reversed from the emperor, if businessmen can have hope in the future, they should sacrifice me and be happy. Comfort yourself with a little lewdness.
The fourth child has seen Lanling, and she is a bold woman herself, so she is very generous. This is better than me, I don't have this ability. Don't say anything, sit aside and pretend to be furnished, and the matter between lesbians is not yet the turn of gays to intervene.
As soon as Lanling put the large-scale procurement proposal on the table, the fourth child accepted it, and it was amazing. There is only one condition, one thousand catties divided into six deliveries. The first delivery will take place in October. There is also a preferential policy, the first 300 catties of toilet water do not need to pay the first silver, credit to the royal family, take it to sell first, and then give 'money' after selling. But... Note this 'but', once the royal turnover is opened, the purchase must be made in cash, not cash. And in the future, it can only be exchanged for cash or goods of the same value as cash. The silver price is not mentioned.
Lanling agreed without saying a word, and it would be stupid not to agree to the pie in the sky.
Hearing this, I want to hug the fourth child and kiss him, it's too powerful, it's too much, what is it, what is blood? It's called bloodline! I don't know how to describe my happiness, and the pressure in my heart is gone. You're not in a position to turn around. Don't you have the money to forcibly buy my things? Then I'll give you the goods first for you to turnover, and then I can't fool me with the silver when I have money, right? You can pay on credit, once you pay it in six times, you can pay it off once, and there is no reason to pay for it. Not only did it reduce the risk of a large number of deliveries, but it also reduced the pressure on the workshop, and by October, as soon as the distillation workshop opened, the momentum was over. Coping with it. Just now, I felt that I was losing money and fame, and I was dissolved by the fourth child in a few words.
This god is unfair, give the old four ugly looks but compensate her for a good brain, why do I want to have no appearance, I want to have no brains? He glanced at Lan Ling and saw that she was also relieved, although she didn't say it, she still couldn't hide her appreciation for the fourth child.
"Clever people. How old is this girl? Last time, your wife told me when she asked the fourth child to find her mother-in-law's house, but she forgot it after a long time. After sending away the fourth child, Lanling urgently began to find out the roots.
"Between sixteen and seventeen, it's that big." I don't know what Lan Ling has in mind, anyway, looking at the ill-intentioned light in her eyes, "Don't want to dig people, don't think about it!" Didn't your female shopkeeper have been apprenticed in the flower water workshop, and she won't be apprenticed again. The fourth child won't give it to you. ”
"I know who you are. If you have no ability, you can protect the short. Lanling calmed down. looked much more normal, "I thought, such a smart and clever girl's family is buried in the countryside alone." In the future, I will directly discuss the flower water offered by the royal family with the fourth child, and you have no reason to interfere, right? ”
Yes, that's what I said, but why do I sound so harsh? I'm being ignored as the mastermind behind the scenes, which hurts my self-esteem. "Don't say it so bluntly, okay? You are also my mother-in-law, what do you mean by wearing a pair of pants with your sister-in-law to exclude you? ”
"You are the one who wants to save face," Lan Ling leaned on me for the first time today, "The couple stared at each other for a day, and no one else had a few words from the little girl. and took care of the royal decency, ensured the smooth business, and made a lot of money back for you to squander, what are you not convinced? Saying that, he rammed me with his back, and said with a smile: "The little girl can speak, obviously on credit, but she insists that it is a priori goods, there is a board and an eye, and if you are not satisfied, you can return something, hehe...... It's comfortable to listen to. Why wouldn't you say that? It was as if I came to the door to smash and rob, and pulling my face made me feel uncomfortable for a day. ”
"Who am I? Be a man of learning! Literati, look down on merchants and peddlers, of course they can't come to the businessman's set," I glanced at Lanling demonstratively, "The businessman will, that is dross, it is inferior, and he disdains to learn." ”
"If you can't do anything, who will you spoil it?" Lanling turned around and gave me a shudder, "Maybe I was wrong before, but so many people see it this way, can you say that the big guys are wrong?" Correct mistakes, from bottom to top, the more you correct them, the more you make mistakes, but from top to bottom, there is a lot less pressure. This time, maybe it's to pull out the nail of Tubo, maybe there are other changes, Lang Jun said? ”
"You've said it all, what else can I say?" Lanling is a smart person, and his overall view is much better than mine, and he is also based on blood, which I can't reach. In the early Tang Dynasty, this benefit was open, relatively open in thought, once the benefit was discovered, it would definitely not let go, how good it was. The men wore Hu clothes as fashionable, the women wore strange Hu hairstyles, the literati drank wine while disdainful of the Hu people, and the bigwigs soaked in the extraterritorial style bathhouses and had a bad idea of beating other people's land. Perhaps this is the reason why the Tang Dynasty was able to be strong for a while, and had the courage to accept new things, especially the leadership was more open-minded and courageous.
This matter has just begun, and it is too early to say that it is too early to solve it, and when there are branches in the future, you have to rely on Lanling to settle it and do business with the royal family, so you have to fight with the spirit of twelve points. No matter how enlightened the emperor is, there are times when he plays a scoundrel. Li Shimin is an example, he has played countless scoundrels in his life, and he is still cautious. Especially after a long time of contact with Lanling, I found out that this careful eye is also inherited, although compared with Ying, Lanling has not yet cared about it to that point, but-for-tat, it is definitely a grudge. The affair with the second daughter is a model.
Lanling said, the fourth child must make good arrangements in the future, and if he has the opportunity, he will carry Yunyun. Mention it, and then mention that she is my sister-in-law, and if she is not appreciated by the princess, the fourth child will become an aunt and grandmother. What's more, Ying is still sullen today, and she is worried about the possibility that the Yun family will suddenly turn over.
As soon as Lanling left, Ying ran to report. said that Steward Qian had already taken this matter as the top priority of the year, and he must be the Yun family.
"Okay, whatever." I'm a little annoyed, have you ever had menopause in your twenties? "Your fourth child is able to succeed today, the princess spoke. I'm going to carry it with me in the future. "It's better to diverge, in the end, it's my mother-in-law, and I can't say it if I don't ask for reason.
"It's long overdue, the fourth is a good girl. Hurry up and bring the letter back, ask the family to discipline and discipline more, and find a good in-law in the future. Ying praised the fourth child and complained, "Our chickens have been laying eggs for a few days," she said and took a small notebook out, "At the beginning of the month, it was about seventy a day, but by this time it will be in the early sixties." I didn't care too much about it when I started little, but it has been going on for several days, and they are all chicks who only bred eggs this year, so it stands to reason that there will be no such thing. ”
"Oh?" Seeing how serious she said, I couldn't help but smile. Ying is careful, since taking over the chicken work, the daily egg production is clearly remembered, I took the small book page by page to look at. "Eighty in July?"
"Yes. It was only a day or two before and after. It doesn't count. Ying helped me turn a few pages forward, "Because it's all chickens this year." There have been back-and-forths, and it has only stabilized at this time. ”
Stability should be the maximum plus the minimum value divided by two, which is the simplest way to calculate it. If Ying's record is drawn out of the trend chart, it is all the way down, and now it is bottoming out at 60, and there is a possibility of continuing to fall through. No, I'm going to check it out. Pulled Ying towards the chicken yard.
"Why is it alone?" Usually there are three people in the yard to take care of, and I hate lazy guys. "What about the other two?"
"The lime is gone, it's none of their business." Ying saw me hanging his face and explained: "Today the rain stopped, let the two of them go over and burn some lime and come back to paint the wall," said and led me to the several walls where the lime was painted, and pointed to the place below the waist, "This chicken is unconsciously powerful, and the white wall that has just been brushed is not even the wall skin, fortunately the top is high, it can't reach, or it's even more ugly." ”
The top is pink and white, and the green bricks below are clean, so I don't usually pay attention to it. My chickens have an artistic atmosphere, and they are neat and tidy, and at first glance, I thought that they were deliberately painted like this. There is a pile of sand in the yard for the chickens to grind and eat lime wall skin.
Got it, got it! Careless people, the difference between breeding and free-range, I didn't worry about it at the time. Free-range chickens run around the world all day long, lacking what to eat, and are free. There is no such condition when he goes to the yard, and maggots are fed with forage all day long, and there is no opportunity to supplement calcium. Blame me, careless, why do chickens lack calcium to make people lay eggs.
"It's okay, it's a good thing that chickens like to eat wall skins, give me a wake-up call, and wait for tomorrow to mobilize people to go to the back canal to catch river mussels and shrimp and come back." A while ago, the mud was cleared, and several truckloads of river mussels came out, and the villagers smashed them and took them to the fertile land, and there were many small shrimp with big fingertips in the canal, too small, they were all shells, and they couldn't be eaten again, and they didn't take it seriously. Now it's good, waste use, river mussel meat has parasites, can't be eaten, but put it in a pot and cook it for a while, and smash it into powder is first-class bone meal. "Okay, don't complain if you find out the reason, you don't know how wordy you have been in the past two days." Later, he explained the reason that captive chickens need to eat bone meal for a long time. Now that I have an eyebrow, the Yun family is estimated to have discovered the doorway in advance, after all, no one has ever raised poultry on a large scale before, and I am also stubborn, and it is forgivable that I am not thoughtful. This is a big event, and in the future, the fourth feed workshop will rise, and bone meal processing is a must.
Sure enough, more than ten days later, the chicken's egg production increased significantly, and Ying also regained confidence in eating the Yun family's land. Now the eggs of the whole village are regularly delivered to the home, plus their own egg production, about 300 pieces, although far from meeting the requirements of the egg workshop, but can already supply individual families in small batches, the fourth seized this opportunity to start a test sale in the name of Chenjiadi.
"If you want to receive the Yun family's eggs into our hands, it will be a lot of money." The fourth child has her own plans, unlike Ying, she is a pure businessman, "Sister, why can't you think about it?" She also makes money by buying it for others, so it is better to take it from our family. ”
"Yes, too." Ying abacus dialed a few times and agreed: "Why don't you go find someone and say, it's a good thing to put her family's life money in our hands." ”
It's really sisters, I hugged Wangcai while teasing my joy, pretending not to hear.
