Chapter 22 The first pot of gold is a huge business opportunity
I have to say.
The fifty laborers are genuine craftsmen.
It's just a day's time.
A row of earthen embryo houses was repaired.
Although the soil embryo room is humid.
However, after Li Gen came back, he directly began to make fire walls and ondols again.
When a large amount of coal arrives, it is baked.
Although it will definitely not dry for a while, but it can barely be checked.
It's much more comfortable than drinking the northwest wind in the wild.
Li Gen turned and walked to his room.
Although it is only a few earthen embryo rooms, Li Gen naturally wants to live in the big, brightest, and most centered room.
In the room, candlelight shines.
Because there was no other furniture, Li Gen directly saw the two maids on the earthen kang.
Boy!
The two of them had already gotten into the bed.
"Childe, hurry up!"
Red Sleeves spoke.
I can't fix Li Gen.
This guy, it would be nice if he stayed in his previous life.
At the moment, I can't go up even if I want to!
How sad is it?
How lamentable?
Li Gen sat on the edge of the kang and stopped Red Sleeves from getting out of bed and giving himself slippers.
Slip a shoe, it's effortless, why bother to let the little girl get up and go down again.
It was warm in the bed.
Originally, it was covered with a feather quilt carefully sewn by Li Gen.
Li Gen was lying in the middle, with a soft and warm body on the left and right.
There is a feeling of guilt in my heart.
But think about the times you're in.
That sense of guilt quickly vanished.
When Li Gen woke up, the two maids had already gotten up.
"Childe, breakfast is ready. Red Sleeves will serve the boy to wash up first! ”
After a simple wash.
Tian Xiang walked into the room with a bowl of rice porridge.
There was also a hard-boiled egg in his hand.
"Why don't you two eat? Didn't cook your meals? ”
Listening to Li Gen's words, Red Sleeves and Tian Xiang shook their heads vigorously.
"Childe, those of us who are subordinates, it is a great blessing to have two meals a day."
"Then what's the matter, now that you two are growing up, since you're with me, I naturally can't let you two live the same life as before."
"Hurry up and cook again, a bowl of rice porridge and a boiled egg per person."
Li Gen's words made the two maids' eyes widen in surprise and their mouths opened wide.
Feng Wu, who had just entered the house, heard Li Gen's words, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Originally, Feng Wu wanted to interject, which was not in accordance with the rules.
However, remembering His Majesty's dictation, everything was done according to Childe's wishes.
Feng Wu finally chose to remain silent.
After breakfast.
The fiery sun rises in the east!
Li Gen looked at the more than 1,000 acres of land with a sweet smile on his face.
"Steward Feng, find another fifty laborers today."
"Childe, it's good to call me Feng Wu, I really don't dare to be a steward."
After Feng Wu finished speaking, he prepared to lead the horse.
"Let's put on the carriage, I want to go to the West Market too."
Half an hour later, Feng Wu drove the carriage and stopped at the door of the Anshanfang Mansion.
The reason why Li Gen returned home was because he had his own plan, and this plan cost money.
Although Feng Wu kept saying that the master gave him a lot of money.
Li Gen still seriously doubted whether it was enough to spend.
"Childe is back."
Zhao Si greeted him with a smile on his face.
Li Gen agreed, straightened his back, and walked into the hall.
"Childe, my lord just went out."
"Oh!"
Li Gen stopped when he heard this, since his father is not here, let's go to the West Market first.
"Childe, do you need to spend money?"
"When the master leaves, he will explain that if the son needs money, he will give all the small ones."
Listening to Zhao Si's words, Li Gen's eyes narrowed into a crescent moon.
Knowing a son is better than a father!
This cheap dad still knows how to be sophisticated.
Zhao Si took out two silver ingots from his sleeve and two gold leaves, and stuffed them into Li Gen's hands.
Li Gen's face bloomed with joy.
This is the Tang Dynasty, and the purchasing power of silver ingots and gold leaves is very strong.
Even copper plates are full of hard currency.
"Childe, this is all for today's son to reward the master, if it is not enough, there is!"
"Enough, enough. Go back and tell the master that the money I spent will soon pay off. ”
Leave the mansion of Anshanfang.
Li Gen and Feng Wu went straight to the West Market.
Along the way, Li Gen kept looking around.
When passing by the Royal Palace.
It's already sunny.
The palace is already resplendent and splendid, and it looks even more dazzling under the sun.
From Hanguang Gate all the way to the west, you will soon arrive at Suzaku Gate.
Directly across from Suzaku Gate is the famous Suzaku Street in history.
Li Gen raised his eyes and looked.
The 1560-meter-wide Suzaku Street is truly impressive.
And that famous Mingde Gate.
It is also the only gate in Chang'an City with five door openings.
Clearly visible in sunlight.
The carriage continued all the way west.
The sound of noisy and lively selling was heard.
Li Gen knew that the West Market had arrived.
Camel!
Just got out of the carriage.
Li Gen saw a caravan of camel merchants.
One by one, they all have big circles of bearded faces.
These are the Hu merchants and Persian merchants who came from the Persian area.
Camel travel through the vast desert and the Gobi.
I have to say that these Hu businessmen are really working hard in business.
At this time, although the West Market had just opened for only half an hour, it was already crowded.
The sound of selling, bargaining, and happy laughter after the deal, one after another.
Compared with the vegetable market in later generations, it is much more lively.
Such a crowded scene surprised Li Gen deeply.
And in the crowd, you can see some people outside Datang from time to time.
Although Li Gen didn't know what nationality they were, he knew that he was not from the Tang Dynasty by looking at his skin color and listening to the accent.
The front door of a rice shop was crowded with people.
And a shop next to it is full of doors.
Li Gen walked to the door of the store and found that it was also a grain store.
However, the grain store sells almost all beans.
Soybeans, mung beans!
Li Gen instantly came to his senses.
In today's season, the vegetable market is hard to find.
"Boss, what is the price of soybeans and mung beans?"
The shopkeeper did not snub Li Gen because he was young.
"Soybeans, six copper plates for a bucket, mung beans for five copper plates for a bucket."
When Li Gen heard this, he laughed happily.
"Boss, I want a large quantity, can it be cheaper, can it be delivered to your door?"
"This son, please inside!"
The store politely invited Li Gen into the store, and the implication is self-evident, that is, the price can be negotiated.
Feng Wu naturally followed into the store.
After some bargaining, the price of soybeans and mung beans dropped by one copper plate per bucket.
Li Gen directly took out two silver ingots, put them on the table, and spoke.
"A soybean with a silver ingot, a mung bean with a silver ingot."
The store's face was full of joy on the spot.
It's really been ten years since it opened, and it's been ten years since it opened!
Li Gen handed over the remaining two gold leaves to Feng Wu.
and informed Feng Wu of his intentions, Feng Wu understood and left the grain store quickly.
The reason why Feng Wu left so reassuringly was because there were Hundred Cavalry spies all the way, following and protecting him in secret, this mysterious son-in-law.
