Now that this great official has made a special opinion of Li Qiao, he is excited, happy and envious.

Li Qiao listened to Zhuang Wen's words, and couldn't help but suddenly think: "The second-class jinshi in the first year of Shengping, so he was admitted to the jinshi as soon as he was enthroned. ”

Shengping is the name of the current holy era.

And Jiang Zhixian looked at him in his forties, so to speak, Jiang Zhixian also studied for more than 20 years before he was admitted to the imperial examination.

In addition, today's Shengshang made an exception for him to enter the Hanlin Academy, so it is no wonder that Jiang Zhixian likes to quote the Shengshang's small compositions when he speaks.

This is the grace of knowledge.

This is a great grace that changes fate than a mountain.

"When the magistrate speaks, he always quotes the words of the saint's article, is this actually a disguised focus?"

He said again.

The chief examiner of the county examination is the magistrate of a county, and he is also one of the markers.

This is the starting point for all scholars to embark on the road to the imperial examination, so it is important to find out the preferences of this magistrate.

But Zhuang Wen said: "Don't think about this first, Master Jiang's three-year term of office is about to expire, if he is not transferred, it is not too late for you to study his preferences." You won't take the county exam next year. ”

He didn't think that Jiang Zhixian could give Li Qiao any help in the imperial examination.

“…… Also. ”

Li Qiao raised his hand and patted his forehead, he had forgotten about it.

However, as long as Jiang Zhixian is still in Pingcheng for a day, he is the boss of Pingcheng, and the things that the boss has explained must be done properly.

Especially when the other party has to hold vermicelli and give gifts to the Youth League.

He can't make a mistake in this, otherwise he will be stillborn before the imperial examination starts.

There is also the matter of affiliation.

Li Qiao really forgot about this before, because he and Tao Zhu now seem to earn a lot of silver every day, but if you calculate it carefully, it is still far from 10,000 taels.

Now the sweet potato workshop can make about five or six hundred catties of vermicelli a day, and he only takes more than four yuan for one catty of vermicelli.

Even if it is calculated according to 600 catties and 5 cents, he can only earn three taels of silver a day by relying on vermicelli.

Coupled with corn, snacks, and roasted sausages, his daily income is about eighteen taels a day.

Eighteen taels a day, only five hundred and forty taels a month, less than seven thousand taels a year, and a long way from ten thousand taels.

What's more, the income from vermicelli will soon be gone, because after the Chinese New Year, the sweet potatoes will either be made into dried sweet potatoes or spoiled, and the sweet potato workshop will be shut down at that time.

Therefore, when Jiang Zhixian mentioned this matter today, was he embarrassed and had nothing to say?

Or is it really for his good?

……

Forget it, no matter what kind of situation it is, since Jiang Zhixian has mentioned it, then he will definitely do it.

Handle it early and feel at ease, if you can't keep it all, he will toss out any new money in the future, and he still hurried to do it while Jiang Zhixian was going to take his food as a New Year's gift.

According to the provisions of the law of the Sheng Dynasty, the output of one's own land is not counted, but only the income from the sale of goods, and those who make more than 10,000 taels a year will be classified as merchants.

But there are policies and countermeasures, if you don't want to be classified as a business, you can hang your own shop in someone else's name.

This affiliated candidate must be chosen well, otherwise, if it is hanged, its own business may really become the other party's.

So, who should you choose for this attached person?

Li Qiao thought all the way, but did not decide on a good candidate.

When the ox cart arrived at Sanliu Village, it was already dark, and it was dark early in winter, not to mention that there were small snowflakes floating today.

But fortunately, the snow did not fall heavily, otherwise it would have been difficult to walk on the road.

After saying goodbye to Zhuang Wen, Li Qiao drove the ox cart back to the new house.

Li Dashan, Li Chuntao and Wang Xiaomu are all there.

Dinner was served warm in the pot.

Wang Xiaomu led the ox cart back to the old house, and a few people on Li Qiao's side began to eat dinner.

Dasheng's restrictions on business registration are not strict, not like the previous dynasty, and suppress all aspects such as clothes, residences, and cars.

Of course, there are still some suppressions, but Li Qiao feels that it is not serious.

The most serious one is that once you enter the business register, you cannot take the imperial examination within three generations.

It stands to reason that the most reassuring thing for those who are looking for refuge is to find their own relatives, but the fact that they can't take the imperial examination makes Li Qiao unable to open his mouth to his relatives.

Therefore, he looked at Li Dashan and Li Chuntao at the dinner table, and did not mention this matter, only said that the county magistrate had a special opinion on him.

Like Zhuang Wen, Li Dashan and Li Chuntao were startled at first, and then excited and happy.

Emma, the county magistrate knows his uncle/cousin!

"After dinner, I started to make vermicelli, and the county magistrate wanted to buy 800 catties of vermicelli, and I will make the vermicelli first."

Li Qiao said.

Fortunately, he had been asking Li Dashan, Li Chuntao, and Wang Xiaodum to make starch before, otherwise, he would really not be able to complete the county master's list quickly.

Li Dashan and Li Chuntao have no opinion, the county master's order, there is nothing more important than this!

After dinner, a few of them were about to start making vermicelli, and Zhuang Fengshou came.

Zhuang Fengshou came to Li Qiao to talk about the noodles.

"In the past few days, many villagers and people from other villages have come to me and said that the speed of making vermicelli is too slow, and once the Chinese New Year passes, we will not be able to do this business, so I thought, should we hire someone to specialize in starch?"

"Starch can be stored for a long time, so first make sweet potatoes into starch, so that the workshop can make vermicelli for a long time."

When Li Qiao heard this, she immediately nodded: "I also have this plan, I saw the shopkeeper Wang today, and the shopkeeper Wang also urged me, hoping to eat vermicelli all year round." ”

"All year round?" Zhuang Fengshou frowned, if he wanted to eat vermicelli all year round, the starch consumed was not something that the people in their village could make.

But if you let people from other villages make starch, how long can the vermicelli be hidden?

If the practice of vermicelli leaks out, next year's vermicelli will not sell well this year.

But can the people who work in the sweet potato workshop at this time really keep it a secret until next year?

Even if he instituted harsh punishments, what if someone took a risk for the money?

The profit behind the noodles is too big, so big that he can't imagine that if someone really chooses to squat in prison for money and live a happy family, then the interests of the villagers will still be damaged next year.

"Since it's so hard to choose, let's let everyone vote."

Li Qiao naturally couldn't make a decision.

Since you can't decide, leave it to everyone.

Zhuang Fengshou sighed: "Okay, let everyone vote." ”

In this way, even if there is any bad result, it will be borne by everyone, the minority obeys the majority, and no one will complain at that time.

So, when Li Qiao and the others made noodles overnight, Zhuang Fengshou was voting.

Zhuang Fengshou has always been resolute, and in this vote, except for children under the age of ten, other villagers have the right to vote.

Not only the workshop side should participate, but also those who did not go to the workshop to work.

The results of this poll came out within one day, and the people who chose to make more starch this year can continue to make vermicelli after the New Year accounted for ninety percent.

The idea of the villagers is very simple, although they themselves will not leak the recipe, but they will not be able to leak it to others, in this case, it is better to take advantage of this year to make a lot of money.

Now I can earn 50 wen a day, which is 1,500 wen a month, and if there are two people in a family, it is 3,000 wen.

If this work continues until next year's wheat harvest, it will be more than seven months of silver.

That's twenty taels.

It doesn't matter what happens to him in the future, he will earn this money first.

Besides, now because the people in the workshop make starch, they can only make five or six hundred catties of vermicelli a day.

If they don't make starch and only make vermicelli, then this number must be doubled, and the silver they earn every day can also be doubled.

If you can earn forty taels of silver in half a year, then what kind of bicycle do you need?

Forty taels of silver can do all the major things in life in one go: build a house, marry a daughter-in-law/husband.

So, earn money first!

The villagers voted for this result, and Li Qiao and Zhuang Fengshou naturally followed this result.

Zhuang Fengshou first asked the people in the village who did not go to work in the sweet potato workshop to make starch.

He went to several nearby villages to find the village chiefs and teach them how to make starch.

He also went to the town and found the villages on the other side of Sanli Town, so that these villages could also make starch.

This was not enough, while Li Qiao went to deliver goods to Jiangzhi County, he also followed him to the county office.

How can just one town be enough, if the whole county is allowed to make starch, then the sweet potato workshop in Sanliu Village can run from now until the sweet potatoes are ripe next year.

Jiang Zhixian gave the noodles and the silver of the Youth League to Li Qiao, and originally wanted to send the two away, but he didn't expect Li Qiao and Sanliu Village to make such a decision.

Confirming that Li Qiao and Zhuang Fengshou really meant this, he immediately asked the officials to call the village chiefs of each village to the county office.

It's a joy for all.

The people who grow sweet potatoes can sell sweet potatoes for money, Sanliu Village can also make money, and the people under his rule can make money, so he naturally supports it strongly.

Ahem, originally, he wanted to trust the relationship, and next year he would be transferred to the county seat he fancied.

Although there are mountains on this side of Heijo, they are not famous mountains, and there are no distinctive animals and plants on the mountains.

There is also no water.

In short, it's just an unremarkable county town in the north.

The people say that they are poor, and that is not enough, and those who are diligent can earn food and not starve to death.

Every year, without oppressing the people, he can also receive sufficient food and taxes, and can submit a qualified report card to the imperial court.

However, if you say you are rich, you will never be able to call it rich.
