Chapter 134: A Little Fight
After trying to grow sweet potatoes, people can learn about the various benefits of sweet potatoes.
In this way, in the second year, there is no need for the imperial court to give instructions.
The people will also expand the scale of sweet potato cultivation on their own.
"And what about the second question?" Li Shimin asked.
"The second problem is how to make people in all the markets of Datang willing to sell roasted sweet potatoes for us."
"Although the cost I calculated was based on the daily wage of a hundred yuan for the hawker, baking sweet potatoes was not a difficult job."
"But after all, I don't know anyone outside Chang'an, and I don't have any relationships, so I can't hire people at all."
Hearing this, Li Shimin said with a smile: "This problem can also be solved." Brother Qin, you don't have any connections, but the court has connections! ”
Qin Fan knew that if he passed through the imperial court, it was true that connections were not a problem.
Li Shimin also smiled.
"100 wages a day, this work of roasting sweet potatoes has not been robbed?"
No wonder Li Shimin said so.
You must know that Qin Fan's annual salary of twenty-five taels is only two and a half taels of silver a month.
When converted, the income is less than 100 wen a day.
In other words, the wages of this sweet potato seller have caught up with Qin Fan, the county master!
Can you not be robbed of your head?
"Since neither of these are a problem, it is best to purchase and store the sweet potatoes after the harvest this fall."
"At the beginning of spring next year, it can be shipped to various places for sowing. At that time, it can also be cut by sweet potato vines. ”
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief: "I have to wait until next year!" ”
"Next year's sweet potato harvest will be a year and a half away! Isn't there no harvest in the past year and a half? ”
Qin Fan spread his hands and said: "Then I can't help it, sweet potatoes are now planted in my Wannian County." ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was puzzled: "Didn't you say that sweet potatoes can be multiplied through potato vines?" Can the direct transplanting of sweet potato vines be expanded soon? ”
Qin Fan suddenly looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with a kind of look at the mentally disabled.
"Making money is a good thing, but the premise is that it can't harm the interests of the people!"
"Otherwise, there will be grudges, and after a long time, there will be thieves!"
"There are too many anti-thieves, and the Tang Dynasty is in danger."
The eldest grandson Wuji was confused.
Don't you just want to start earning money a year earlier?
"Is there anything wrong with this transplanted sweet potato?"
"I transplant a sweet potato so that the Tang Dynasty will die?"
The eldest grandson Wuji said dissatisfied.
"It is not necessary to lose the country, but resentment is inevitable!" Qin Fan affirmed.
"Why?"
"Why? And why! You pull out the grain that people have planted and let them plant a crop of unknown origin, and you say that they are not angry! ”
"We know the roots of sweet potatoes, and we know that their yield is far higher than that of grains, and their value is also high."
"But do the people know? In their eyes, if you pull out the seedlings they have worked so hard to plant, you will make them hungry! ”
"This is a way to cut off people's lives! Can they not rebel? ”
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji also patted his head.
I forgot about such a critical issue.
It's May now, and the seedlings planted by the people are probably knee-high.
If you pull it out at this time, won't the people's hard work for more than a month come to naught?
"It's me who didn't think it through." The eldest grandson Wuji rarely lowered his head once.
"Yo he! Why aren't you stubborn today? Know it's wrong? Qin Fan was a little puzzled.
According to the usual character of this surnamed Sun, he is wrong, and he will stalk his neck and say that he is right.
The eldest grandson Wuji glared: "It's about you and me, it's okay to be wrong." But if it involves the people of the world, it involves the family and the country. If you don't admit it if you're wrong, you're stupid! ”
Qin Fan nodded and said with a slight agreement: "It seems that you know that you don't do anything wrong on weekdays!" I'm just embarrassed to admit it. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji craned his neck again, turned his head away, and no longer paid attention to Qin Fan's ridicule.
And on the side, Li Shimin faced (this chapter is not finished!) )

Color a shu.
"Now I don't have to worry about how to exchange government bonds for the people when the time comes."
Hearing this, Qin Fan wondered, "Just like that, you're satisfied?" ”
Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned: "According to what Brother Qin said, won't you be able to make enough money by baking sweet potatoes?" ”
Qin Fan supported his forehead: "Roasted sweet potatoes only cost a few things!" At the beginning of the day, a million taels of silver were invested, and not only did not have to continue to invest, but also made money. ”
"Your remaining nine million taels of silver are going to be dusted in the storehouse? Give interest to people for nothing? ”
Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but nod and said, "Yes!" The rest of the silver can't be left in the treasury to be dusted! ”
So, he looked at Qin Fan, expecting the other party to find a few more ways.
If there were nine more food stalls like roasted sweet potatoes, wouldn't all the money be used?
Li Shimin knows that the research and development of nine snacks may be difficult for others, but for Qin Fan, is this a matter?
He can just pull out a few ingredients and create a whole new dish!
To Li Shimin's surprise, Qin Fan spoke.
"That's it! When you run out of dessert, it's time for dinner! ”
Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but be dumbfounded: the business with an annual profit of seven million taels of silver turned out to be just a dessert in Qin Fan's eyes.
Seeing that the two of them were shocked, Qin Fan couldn't help pouting and said in disgust:
"What kind of expression are you guys, it was just a little fight! If you want to make a lot of money, you still have to set your eyes on the sea! ”
"The sea?" The eldest grandson Wuji helped his chin that was almost dislocated, and said puzzledly:
"This sea is deserted, make money from the sea?"
"Let me ask you, what is the value of silk weaving in Jiangnan?" Qin Fan opened his mouth and asked.
If Qin Fan asked something else, the eldest grandson Wuji might not know, but Silk Weaving, he really knew:
"A foot of silk moves for dozens of taels of silver! Ordinary people are afraid that they can't afford it. ”
Qin Fan nodded: "Yes, this is the price of silk in Chang'an, I didn't expect you to know." ”
The eldest grandson Wuji snorted coldly.
I was sighing in my heart, I didn't expect that stinky woman to be useful!
Yes, the reason why the eldest grandson Wuji knows the price of Chang'an silk is because the women in the family are clamoring to buy silk brocade clothes.
The eldest grandson Wuji was annoyed by the noise, so he had to go out to buy silk.
"But do you know what the price of cloth in Jiangnan is?" Qin Fan continued to ask.
The eldest grandson Wuji pouted: "No matter what, it will not be more expensive than Chang'an." ”
Qin Fan nodded: "Yes, for the same foot of cloth, the price in Jiangnan is only seventy percent of Chang'an." ”
"This is because there are many mulberry fields in the south of the Yangtze River, and the people raise more silkworms, so silk is produced."
"And the silk produced in the south of the Yangtze River can rise by three to four percent in Chang'an! This is profiteering. ”
Li Shimin nodded: "But Brother Qin, you said so much, what does it have to do with the sea?" ”
