Jiang Chuan earned back two yuan after following the caravan, and he was so arrogant that he no longer had the heart to cultivate the fields, so he let his parents grow some vegetables and vegetables. But after a few days at home, Qin Fen never came to say hello.

Jiang Chuan couldn't bear it anymore, so he went to Beishi to look for it, and just saw that Qin Fen was about to enter a cloth shop, so he hurriedly greeted him. Qin Fen also saw him, greeted him with a smile, and said, "I'll talk to the shopkeeper of the cloth shop about something, and you will wait for me here." Jiang Chuan nodded.

After waiting for a long time, Qin Fen came out and said apologetically: "I've kept you waiting, hehe." ”

Jiang Chuan said: "Brother Qin, you are busy, it doesn't matter if I wait." ”

Qin Fen looked up at the sky and said, "It's almost noon, let's find a restaurant to eat and talk at the same time." Jiang Chuan was still a little hesitant, and Qin Fen couldn't help but say that he would pull him into the restaurant.

Jiang Chuan had never eaten in a restaurant, and he was very restrained, so Qin Fen called the shopkeeper to order wine and food. Jiang Chuan hesitated in the face of the delicacies and didn't dare to put down the dishes, Qin Fen said: "Eat, eat better when you make a lot of money." Egawa smiled.

The two didn't talk for a while, just drinking and eating. After he was full of wine and food, Qin Fen wiped his mouth and asked, "Looking for me, you still want to go to Guanshi." Jiang Chuan nodded, full of anticipation.

Qin Fen tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "I'm preparing the goods, and I can leave in a few days, so you can prepare too." ”

Jiang Chuan was overjoyed and thanked him again and again, and then found that Qin Fen seemed to have something to say, so he sat up straight and waited for him to speak.

Qin Fen hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "I have something, but I haven't thought about whether to say it yet." ”

Jiang Chuan was bent on going to Guanshi with him, but he looked at him nervously for fear of change.

Qin Fen smiled when he saw this, and said, "It's a matter of buying and selling." I said you listen, you don't have to make a decision right away. He looked around again, lowered his voice and said, "There are a lot of people here, let's find a secluded place." Got up and went out, and Jiang Chuan followed.

The two came to Qin's warehouse, and Qin Fen instructed the men not to let others in.

Jiang Chuan saw him so solemn, and his heart was also worried.

Qin Fen lowered his head and thought for a while, then stared at him for a while.

Jiang Chuan became more and more nervous, and stammered: "Brother Qin, if there is anything, just say it." ”

Qin Fen sneered and said, "Don't be so nervous, it's just a matter of trading." ”

Jiang Chuan was still so nervous that his hands were shaking. He forced his composure and said, "Say it." ”

Qin Fen asked, "I felt good about taking two thousand dollars last time." ”

Jiang Chuan opened his mouth and didn't speak, swallowed his saliva, and nodded vigorously.

Qin Fen said: "There is a chance to make a lot of money, do you want to do it together." ”

Jiang Chuan nodded even harder.

Qin Fen said: "I said you listen. The last time I went to Wuyuan, I brought some personal belongings and made a sum of money myself. I also said that if it is a rare thing, the profit is more than double. Remember? ”

Jiang Chuan said: "Remember." ”

Qin Fen said in a low voice: "I have this rare thing now, and I have nothing to do with the Qin family's caravan, and I earn it all by myself." ”

Jiang Chuan didn't react for a moment, staring at Qin Fen blankly.

Qin Fen didn't avoid his gaze, the two of you look at me and I look at you, after a while, Jiang Chuan came back and asked, "What is a rarity." ”

Qin Fen stepped forward and whispered rather mysteriously: "The forbidden object of the imperial court." ”

Jiang Chuan was taken aback and exclaimed, "Forbidden objects in the imperial court? ”

"Tap. Don't make such a fuss. Qin Fen straightened up, held the case with both hands, and glared at him dissatisfied.

Jiang Chuan suddenly felt ashamed, and was silent for a moment before asking softly, "What forbidden thing?" ”

Qin Fen no longer pretended to be mysterious at this time, and said calmly: "It's an iron knife, an iron knife with a ring head." The imperial court did not allow the use of weapons and iron tools to trade with foreign countries, and it was found to be a capital crime. ”

Jiang Chuan asked suspiciously, "Then why do we want to trade this thing with Saiwai." ”

Qin Fen stretched out a finger and said in a low tone: "One word, Li." ”

When Jiang Chuan heard a sharp word, he couldn't help but tremble, and his heart was full of fear and expectation, intertwined, and he felt dizzy.

Qin Fen smiled slightly: "Drink saliva first, and listen to me slowly." After Jiang Chuan's mood calmed down, he said slowly: "Do you know what you can get back if you sell an iron knife with a ring head outside the plug?" ”

Seeing Jiang Chuan's dazed expression, he replied to himself: "A healthy cow." Then he said: "The ring-headed iron knife is privately bought and sold here for 700 wen, what about a healthy cow?" 1,800 texts. ”

Jiang Chuan understood now, he was so shocked that he opened his mouth again, and after a while, he blinked his eyes, and just as he was about to speak, Qin Fen raised a finger and gently shushed: "A knife nets a thousand Wen, one acre of land." Do not do it? ”

Jiang Chuan hesitated for a while, and finally made up his mind: "Do it." ”

Qin Fen showed an approving look on his face, and said quite old-fashionedly: "The world is bustling, and it is all for profit; The soil in the world is all for profit. Seeking wealth, human nature, no need to urge, will pursue, right. ”

Jiang Chuan nodded as if he didn't understand, but he was still a little worried, and said, "You just said that this is a forbidden thing, what will happen if you are caught by the government." ”

"Kill the head." Qin Fen replied very simply. Jiang Chuan trembled, clasped his hands on his chest, and his expression was also depressed.

Qin Fen sneered to himself, thinking to himself, I heard that you were so energetic that you were rich, and when you heard that there was danger, you shrank your head, there are cheap things in the world. He laughed and said with relief: "Look at what scares you, I really haven't seen the world." How could I do a head-killing thing. ”

Jiang Chuan was still frightened, and snorted: "Didn't you say that you wanted to kill your head." ”

Qin Fen said: "These are two different things, you may also turn into the river and drown by boat, so why not take a boat?" smuggling iron knives and being caught by the government is guilty of forbidden; If you don't get caught, it's just a deal. The Qin family caravan has a talisman issued by the government, so there is no need to check it to pass the customs. We wrapped the iron knives in the cargo, and no one would inspect them. ”

He stopped to drink saliva to moisten his throat and continued: "You calculate, you earned two thousand wen last time. If you take these two thousand wen as the capital, you can start with three iron knives, and you can earn back three thousand wen after running for twenty or thirty days, which is not counting the salary given to you by the Qin family. In this way, you have 5,000 capital with interest, and you will have more than 10,000 yuan for another trip, and you will double it every time you go in the future, but in one year, you can buy the 30 acres of land you rent. ”

Qin Fen's words were very tempting, Jiang Chuan completely forgot his previous worries, and he was also thinking about making a profit in his heart, and in a trance, he already owned the land and the manor. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, his face flushed, and he gasped for a while before he could barely calm down.

Qin Fen saw Jiang Chuan's reaction in his eyes, he was amused in his heart, and he was quite emotional, people die for money, and birds die for food, which is true.

He deliberately added another fire and said, "Do you know how the old man of the Qin family made his fortune? Even if it is smuggling green salt, it is also a crime. Seek wealth and danger, and earn more while you are young. I don't know what you think, that's what I think, how can I be a house slave for the rest of my life. ”

Jiang Chuan was excited by what he said, and he was completely addicted to the dream of making a fortune, and he suddenly thought of a question: "It's hard to buy a ring-headed iron knife." ”

Qin Fen said proudly: "The iron knife is a national armament, and it can't be bought ordinarily. I have an internal application in the arsenal of Northland County, just ask him to buy more when purchasing, and not make a book for storage, he buys it at the official price, and then sells it to me at the market price. This time I ordered twenty of them, and I can get them tomorrow. ”

Jiang Chuan's heart flashed, I can only take three of the twenty knives, and sure enough, the richer the richer, the richer the richer. Suddenly, another question came to his mind: "Is it suspected that we are an enemy when we sell iron knives outside the fortress?" ”

Qin Fen looked at him in surprise and said, "If it was before, it was indeed suspected of being an enemy. However, now the Monan Xiongnu have returned to the imperial court, and the northern border is peaceful and there has been no war for a long time. They bought iron knives, but they were just self-defense. He joked again: "You are a humble person who does not forget to worry about the country." ”

At this time, there was a bang outside the door, Jiang Chuan became nervous, leaned straight and listened for a while, and there was no other sound, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Fen said: "Did you understand what you just said? Jiang Chuan said: "I understand." ”

When the two went out, it was already dark, and Qin Fen said, "You come over tomorrow night, and we will load the car together." He also advised, "Don't tell anyone about this, and don't tell your family about it." It was said that he was going to the city with the caravan. Jiang Chuan couldn't help nodding.

Back at home, Jiang Chuan was immersed in excitement and stayed awake all night.
