The two brothers Zhu Biao and Zhu Fan listened very carefully, and they learned some things about people's livelihood.

"Your Royal Highness, the stones used by the villagers will be collected, and they will be very expensive in the future. Ordinary people should not get rich quickly, and they cannot keep their hearts. ”

The first thing the chief thought about was the bloodstone that had been dug up, and a family suddenly found that there were a lot of bloodstones on the wall of the yard, and the price was very high, and disaster came.

Why was Xiaqiu Village afraid when it made a lot of money? Why don't you buy thousands of catties of brown sugar and sell it as rock sugar?

There is also the later soap, which the village can obviously make hard, and they have an extra crop of rapeseed.

Every time it comes to this critical moment, Hanhan stops, can't sell it, just have enough money to buy livestock.

Including glass mirrors, Xiaqiu Village has never sold one, but selling boxed lunches is very addictive and I feel happy.

People from other villages, give him a thousand, he will not live better, he will only die faster.

"Zhu Lichang rest assured, the palace will consider giving them a little more things, but they can't let them suffer evil because of money."

Zhu Biao also knew about this situation, and decided to collect all the bloodstones outside, and then dig again.

"According to the previous method, it is practiced by digging and burning stones and splashing water. The existing explosives will be mined after they are exploded, and I have a map of the specific range, please see it Your Highness. ”

The chief said how to mine bloodstone, and the drawings and methods provided by Hanhan.

In the beginning, I got it from the outside, and it was like this for hundreds of years, and all the good stones were wasted.

Of course, the most wasteful time is because it contains mercury, so ......

Zhu Biao took the paper, didn't look at it at all, and put it in his arms directly, it doesn't make sense to look at it now, it's important to eat skewers.

The lieutenant chief said: "Fence the place and mine it in limited quantities, so the price is high, and it is said to the outside world that it is difficult to see good stones in the depths."

Then you can increase the price of bloodstone according to the distribution of the texture and the production process.

Artificially divide this into finished product grades, first sell badly, the price is set high, and then gradually ship, which can be long-lasting. ”

Zhu Biao was already numb to the master's methods, and nodded: "Okay!" In order to make more money, it must be done. ”

……

The heavy rain fell, and the day before yesterday on the ninth day of the third month entered the Guyu solar term, and the people were not only worried, but showed a relieved look.

At this time, it is a critical period for planting vegetables, even if it is wheat, there should be plenty of rain, and then the harvest period.

Now that it rains, the wheat will not sprout, just drain the water.

The rivers are rising, the fish catch is increasing, and the people of Nanjing have begun to eat fish.

This way of steaming does not need to be fried, just put some salt, ginger slices and green onions, if you are still afraid of fishy, several families together buy a big bowl of beer, go back and put it in the steam.

Because beer is cheaper than rice wine, everyone has learned to use it for cooking.

A large group of people arrived on a boat from Xiaqiu Village, and the family of five who had gone back before came over again.

The husband and wife brought more diapers, and everyone still carried the burden, which was filled with duck eggs and goose eggs.

The lieutenant told them to hatch and sell duck and goose seedlings, and they still brought eggs, because there were too many, some of them had been more than half a month, and they were estimated to be able to hatch because of the hot weather.

There were a lot of people who came this time, and there were six boats in Xiaqiu Village, dressed separately, and brought fish.

They threw their own nets and put them together in the boats, not afraid of the fish jumping around.

As soon as they arrived at the dock, the people on the dock immediately came up to help, and the people from the lake were so nervous, this was to rush to work and ask for money?

"No, this one has to be shipped to the front." The boatmen shouted that some things were unloaded, and some were to be sent there to be unloaded again.

A group of people helped unload it, and then dispersed, and everyone returned to everyone, as if they hadn't moved.

"Wait a minute, someone will tell the other side, and the other side will send a car to load it." The people who are here tell the people by the lake.

"How did you give the money?" An old man asked in a whisper.

"I didn't give any money! People don't want it, you ask people and say it's just a handle, let's go to Xiaqiu Village's boat like this. ”

The boatman responded with a smile while waiting next to him, and he felt a sense of accomplishment in doing all the work he had done for Xiaqiu Village.

After a while, people came, pushing a car, and led everyone to the front.

When they arrived at the library, the people by the lake saw many people wearing hats and robes, holding children in their arms, sending children in front of a large store, turning around and leaving.

The shops in their impression are all open from north to south and east to west, and for the first time they saw the curved door face.

The door was sixteen open, much more magnificent than the Yamen, and the Yamen was only six doors.

The key is that each door is larger than the yamen, which is equivalent to the door of one and a half yamen, isn't this overstepping?

Look at the children who were put down, one by one stood at the door and rubbed their shoes, and then ran in, and some even took off their shoes and went in barefoot.

"Let's go this way, make room for the children, and just for a while, the adults have to go to work and put the children who are not suitable for the library in the library.

Don't look at the small face in the front, there is a place in the back, it's no problem to pretend to be three or five thousand people, someone is too busy, and even left the child here overnight, and only found time to pick it up the next night. ”

The leader of the tour explained to the people who lived by the lake that this was the social function of the library.

"It's from Xiaqiu Village? How much does it cost to bring these children? "There are young men who think about the cost of Xiaqiu Village.

"Xiaqiu Village provides us with so many duck seedlings, goose seedlings, and livestock farmland, and how much does it cost to harvest wheat and then plough and plant soybeans?"

The old man before taught the young man, and you felt distressed when it was your turn to give someone else's turn? For you? Who's going to feel distressed?

"We, we know how to be grateful!" The young man argued.

"Others don't understand? When docking, other boats gave way, and the people on the dock helped to do the work and hid away.

Isn't this because Xiaqiu Village is rich, there are more rich people, and there are more people who hate the rich, and they hate Xiaqiu Village?

A place where people can trust their children with peace of mind is the reason for everything. The village of benevolence and righteousness lives up to its name! ”

The old man had said something, and followed the crowd to the gate of Jubiqi, and there was a side door next to it, and everyone went in and began to weigh duck eggs, goose eggs, and fish.

"The fish is not weighed, the fish is given, let's give it to Xiaqiu Village, don't weigh it, don't lift the scale, give it!"

When he saw someone weighing fish, the old man was not happy, and said Okay, the fish caught is given to Xiaqiu Village, what does it mean to weigh it?

"Old Bo Mo is angry, let's just see how big the fish are in the lake, we may have to raise fish in the future, let's take this fish back and eat it, and we won't give you money."

The people who came with him from Xiaqiu Village explained that if they don't give money, they don't need money to eat, but they have to look at the variety and size of the fish.

"That's okay, remember that you can't give money, we people who live by the lake, if we really take this money, we won't be able to straighten up in the future." The old man made his words clear.

"How can you! What a fish today! Let's send it to the saint in the palace, make boiled fish, let's pick one, it's hard to clean up if there are too many thorns, and you can't stab any nobleman. ”

The people of Xiaqiu Village assured that the fish would be sent to the palace.
