"Mayfly Town, the heat is busy, and I am busy and panicking. The ground is panicked, people are panicked, there is no food and clothing, there is nowhere to be busy, everyone is starving to death, and their stomachs are cold. The sky is cool, and the sky is cool, but fortunately there is a lake Bolang. Hu Bolang, come to rain, after the rain rises in the autumn pool, the pond fat grass grows cows, the world is good to work, the sun is in a hurry and the harvest is busy, this year is a good day, fortunately there is a lake Bolang!"

The children took the sugar gourds, three or five together, in groups of tens, and ran happily through the streets and alleys in the mayfly town, where the fog had not yet cleared but was already busy.

"Hey, these children!" At the noodle stall next to Longtan Building, the boss wiped the table and handed the noodles to the guests who had been waiting for a long time.

"I don't know which gentleman made it up, it's interesting. Zhao Ritian took a sip of noodles, cocked his thumb and praised it, Lao Wang's noodles here still taste like this.

"This is made up by Mr. Su who came last year. The boss said and sat down.

"Mr. Su?" Zhao Ritian felt that the name was somewhat familiar, so he spoke: "Could it be Su Wenyu?"

Seeing Lao Wang nodding, Zhao Ritian was even more surprised: "Why did Su Wenyu come here? He is a talented and famous person, and he and I were classmates." ”

Lao Wang smiled, shook his head, poured himself a cup of cold white water, took a sip, and felt comfortable in his stomach before he put down the cup and said: "What's so strange about this, don't forget, a year ago, there was a great drought, how many people were displaced, just our mayfly town, there is no White Lotus Sect to make trouble, and the people in the three towns of Hunyou County basically come to us." I remember a year ago, the mayor of the town also counted that the population of this town is about 2,200 people, and you have only been until three months to calculate it, how many are there in our mayfly town alone?"

"How much?" Zhao Ritian hurriedly asked.

Lao Wang didn't speak, but stretched out his palm and shook it in front of his eyes.

"Five thousand!" Zhao Ritian was surprised.

"This is still our town, the total number of the four surrounding villages is now 3,000, and the entire Hunyou County is only about 18,000 people, you think about it, our mayfly town alone now has 8,000 people......!

Speaking of this, Lao Wang smiled and glanced at Zhao Ritian and said: "I'll get an axe with you about this, and you Zhao Ritian should know these best." ”

Zhao Ritian didn't dare to say three times in a row, and he was respectful to the owner of this small noodle stall.

In fact, he was forced out by a major drought a year ago. His Zhao family used to be a merchant family, although there is some family background, but it has not been big, the old father who died in the drought named him Ritian, which means that the sun is in the sky, I hope he can revitalize the family. However, it is a pity that when my father was alive, he took over the business, not only did he not make any money, but he almost lost his family's wealth.

But I didn't think that this mayfly town was not affected by the drought at all, and it was still a rolling river with beautiful mountains and rivers.

The crops in the fields and the like grow better than anywhere else.

In other places, the price of rice and flour has risen as if the price is high, but the supply exceeds the demand, but here, the price is not only lower than the ordinary price, but even the quantity is extremely large.

At that time, he had a mind to sell rice and noodles, but he found that there was a strange rule in this town, rice, flour, grain, and other grains were never allowed to leave the town.

Later, he learned that there were such huge resources here, and everything was blessed by Hubo.

The reason why there is such a regulation is also because the oracle under Hu Bo is afraid that this place will become the source of robbery elsewhere, making life here uneasy.

"That's it, it's good to be able to live with peace of mind. So, he didn't have much luxury.

But later found out that he was about to sit on the empty mountain to live on the family money he brought out, so he started to do some small business. It's just that the business has been average, until later someone saw that his children were pitiful with him, so they asked him to go to the Hubo Temple to offer incense and bless him, and after he went with suspicion, he had a strange dream that night.

In his dream, he came to a palace made of crystal bones, and saw a god-man with the head of a dragon and a human body, who called himself Hubo.

The man of God told him that because of his piety, he pointed out a way for him to make a fortune, but after he made a fortune, he could not forget his roots, and he agreed again and again. When he woke up from the dream, an old man came to him and said that the mussels in the lake in the village had beads, but unfortunately there was nowhere to make a move, so the lake berto dream asked him to come to him.

Pearl?!

As soon as he heard this, he wondered in his heart, although pearls can be sold at a good price, but there is no good pearl in ten thousand, most of them can only be used as medicine beads, it seems that they can't make a lot of money, and it is at least two and a half years from the pearl, the time is too long...... Later, after he went, he learned that the pearls produced in this place called Xiangliu Village were really of high quality!

The most surprising thing for him was that the number of pearls was extremely large, and it only took a year for the pearls to be formed!

After that, things were very simple, he relied on his family's previous way to sell pearls, and this sale was a year, and he went from a small merchant to now the richest and most famous merchant in the whole Hunyou County and even further afield.

Because the pearls he sells are of great quantity and of high quality, and the price is so real that no one can compare them!

Of course, this is also related to Zhao Ritian's iron-fisted methods in the business field, who doesn't know that Zhao Ritian is a ruthless character when he is doing business outside?

However, everyone in Mayfly Town knows that Zhao Ritian is very polite to the township.

Because Zhao Ritian knew that he could achieve what he is today, thanks to a word from the local residents of Mayfly Town, no matter how good he was, he couldn't be unkind to the township.

After the business became bigger, the first thing he did was to renovate the four villages of Mayfly one by one, from the land, houses, fences, Hubo Temple, etc. in the village, it can be said that his annual profits, except for some of the family stickers, the rest have been done in the construction of Mayfly Town and four villages.

Of course, no matter how big he invested, he never lost, and he attributed all this to the blessing of Lord Hubo.

Like Zhao Ritian, he is just one of the twenty or so wealthy businessmen added to Mayfly Town in the past year.

"Lao Zhao, I said that the reputation of our Mayfly Town is getting bigger and bigger, and you see that there are more and more beggars and people from other places who are suffering from disasters, can you afford to build a salty porridge shed at the entrance of the town alone? I don't know about others, but you and I know that in the first half of the year, you spent half of your family property to build a village outside our Mayfly Town, and hired people to dig up the ditches around Mayfly Town. "The boss Lao Wang said, this Zhao Ritian has no shelf in front of him, and he is happy to treat him as a friend.

"Lao Wang, you are narrow-minded when you say this. Think about it, let's stabilize these outsiders to live here, so that the population here continues to increase, and when there are more people, won't the surrounding area become rich? Everyone goes to worship Lord Hubo, and Lord Hubo will naturally be happy, and the many people who worship will naturally have a credit to us. ”

Zhao Ritian finished eating the last Yikou noodles, put down the bowl and said: "Lao Wang, I'm busy today, so I'll leave first, and we'll talk tomorrow." ”

Say Ba and turn away.

In fact, he is really busy enough, the latest batch of wood, bricks and tiles are about to arrive, he has to go to see the salty porridge shed, and then he has to go to the four villages in the afternoon to collect pearls, and in addition, he has to go to see the mountain outside Lijia Village.

A mosquito quietly followed him......
