Chapter 1082 Changping County Lord 30

The goods in the store were decreasing one by one; money was pouring into the Changping County owner's warehouse.

Xining called Butler Xiao and handed him a written bamboo slip: "Buy according to the items listed above. Tell the vendors nearby that if they are shipped, we will charge them according to the market price."


Butler Xiao looked at the bamboo slips. The handwriting was very good, and it should have been written by the maid next to the county lord. But soon many questions came up: "Thousand jars of strong wine?"

"The stronger the wine, the better." Xining shook his fan: "I heard that the wine in some places in northern Xinjiang can be ignited by throwing it into the fire. This is what I want. The autumn harvest is coming soon. When the food is harvested, it should be There will be people making wine, and the price should be cheaper. Don’t rush now, just prepare it before winter.”

Butler Xiao blinked his eyes with confusion on his face: "Why do you need such a strong wine?"

Xining smiled: "Sell it with water! I secretly make a kind of wine, add sugar and water, and after blending, it tastes like rice wine. But rice wine is not easy to store. Since this place is located at the border and it is not easy to transport things, of course I buy it. As strong a drink as possible.”

Only then did Butler Xiao understand that if the wine was sold with water, wouldn't he be afraid that the ministers of the court would interfere with her again?

Lowering his head and looking again: "Fifty pieces of soft cotton yarn, a hundred pieces of thick felt cloth..."

"Why do you need so much cloth?" Butler Xiao didn't understand again. He wanted not only the softest cotton yarn, but also the thickest felt cloth.

Xining said calmly: "The heat has been brutal in the past two years. Cotton gauze can be used as bed tents; felt cloth can be spread on the ground. Anyway, just buy it!"

Fifty pieces of cloth can be used to make 200 bed tents, and each household in the county can hang one. If the thick felt cloth is cut into floor mats, it is enough for each household to receive one piece. Moreover, you can use straw mats or bamboo mats on the ground, so why use felt?

Well, the money belongs to the county owner. Even if these things are large in quantity, they won't cost much. You only need to sell one or two pieces of Shu brocade, or a piece of jewelry inlaid with gold and silver, and you can get it done.

Butler Xiao bowed: "I understand."

Butler Lin happened to be back at this time, and Butler Xiao quickly put the bamboo slips into his lapel.

Butler Lin saluted after returning: "My servant fulfilled his mission and delivered the sheep to the palace. He handed the letter to the king. I heard from the chamberlain that the king smiled after reading the letter."

Xining nodded: "Now that this matter has been said, there is no need to spread it. Otherwise, it will be said that I speculated on the holy will and had bad intentions."

"Yes, the County Lord!" Butler Lin felt that the County Lord was indeed different. He was cautious and flawless in doing things. Even if they are picky officials, what they do can shut their mouths. At most, you will get a little stigma, but your life will be safe.

I heard the county leader say: "You rest for three days and then go to Liaodong."

Butler Lin was stunned, why didn't he go to the capital, but to the east instead? He slowly saluted: "What important matters do you have, Lord, please send me here?"

Liaodong is the territory of the King of Liao. Could it be that they had a private relationship and planned to plot a rebellion?

Xining shook his fan and said, "It's close to the sea. I remembered that I had eaten a kind of sea vegetable before. After it was dried and put in the water, it would swell again in a short time. Cut it into shreds and cook it in soup, just like a vegetarian dish. There are no vegetarian dishes here. I've been eating only meat for many days, and I haven't even been able to order food. Thinking about how fast seafood dries in the summer, the price should be cheap. You can buy a boatload of it and sell it if you can't finish it. This thing is durable. It won’t be a problem if you put it away for a year and a half.”

Well, it’s still for food! This Xiao Zhan went to Jiangnan to buy lotus roots, and he wanted to buy dried sea vegetables. Do you need to travel around just to eat?

The county leader seemed to have thought of something: "Xiao Zhan has been gone for half a month. He should come back by boat. When you arrive in Liaodong, if you happen to meet him, come back together and have someone to take care of you on the way. You know, it's okay if you can't finish the meal. Sell ​​it, these things can stand to be put away! Butler Lin could only say: "Yes, County Master, I will definitely handle the matter well. ”

Xining nodded: "We have Butler Laolin. I am thinking about giving the person who does the work 10 to 20% of the stock until next year. From the money earned every time, give the person who does the work a commission. This can also make more money. Are you motivated? ”

Give dry shares? If you have a good relationship, it means money. A round trip can sometimes earn two to three thousand taels of silver, at least forty or fifty taels, and one trip can earn five taels of silver, which is equivalent to a month's salary.

Butler Lin immediately bowed and said words of gratitude. Then he went down happily!

Xi Ning looked at Butler Lin's back with cold eyes. This man who was cheating might be getting a double salary. Otherwise, where did the money come from for the real estate shop his son bought?

From now on, let him go to the capital once a month to reassure the "person" behind him. On weekdays, just run outside. Han's country is so big and there are souvenirs everywhere. Buy slowly and don't wander around in front of them, looking annoying.

As for giving dry shares, Hehe, that will be decided by the body owner himself in the future. Get through this winter first, and if you don't die, you can talk to the owner of the body.

More than half a month later, Butler Lin and Butler Xiao finally came back, bringing several carts of things with them. It took a long time to unload the goods, moving boxes and buckets to the warehouse behind the store.

Just this lotus root and lotus seeds are the focus of everyone's discussion.

Now that the lotus root has arrived, it cannot be kept for long. In order to prevent it from turning black, it can only be placed in the mud of the pond. As a result, the only ballast is mud.

Butler Xiao showed me how to deal with the mud on these boats. Pour directly into the river and it will easily block the river channel. Or throw it on the river bank.

Xining thought for a while and said thoughtfully: "The pond mud in the south of the Yangtze River is fertile. I see that the flowers and plants in my yard are withered and yellow no matter how much I take care of them. When the lotus root feast is over, I will simply spread the mud in the yard. Planting vegetables in a few days!”

Growing vegetables? Vegetables are grown in the county lord's mansion...how do you think that they come out all at once?

Well, this County Lord's Mansion belongs to the County Lord, and the County Lord can do whatever he likes with it. The country was mainly based on farming, and the King of Han presided over priests every spring plowing and autumn harvest to pray for good weather and abundant grains. If the county chief is engaged in farming, it is better to focus on business, right?

That night, dishes made from kelp soup, lotus root, and various dried seafood were served on the county head's table.

The lotus roots are here, the lotus root feast is ready and can be started on time.

In fact, every boy and girl does not care about lotus root vegetables, but is more concerned about choosing a son-in-law and a daughter. It is said that the four skills of poetry, calligraphy, painting and music were competed during the banquet, and everyone was judged together. The one with the most votes won the first place. The county boss also prepared four things as a lottery.

You must know that the things owned by the county owner are all good. A piece of Sichuan brocade in the store will cost thousands of taels of silver. Even the gold jewelry is more exquisitely made than ordinary ones, and the price is higher than that in ordinary gold stores. a lot of.

Every family strives to dress up their daughter and son, and this is really a good opportunity to become famous.

Early in the morning, the door was swept and watered, and several servants stood at the door, waiting for the guests to arrive. Not long after, the guests arrived one after another.
