Mr. Yangui

Chapter 215 Chapter [-] Fishing Contest
"Brother Xiong, are there so many people in your village? There are also many shops, and I think they are all comparable to a small town." After looking around the market, Tang Zhifeng was quite suspicious.

"Grandpa, it's like this. A few days ago, there were disasters in the east of Feng Yi and Feng Yi City. People in the east and the city ran away. Naturally, the rich people went to Jingzhao or Chang'an City, and the others went to the southwest of Feng Yi. Many people are unwilling to go back. Under the arrangement of Wang Taishou, seven or eight nearby Zhuangzi have taken in some people. Our Zhuangzi has taken in the most, and some small merchants have also come to our Zhuangzi, so our Zhuangzi has become It's the center of the southwest area." Fat Bear explained.

Tang Zhifeng nodded.

Fat Xiong continued: "Feng Yicheng is still recovering, so everyone who wants to buy something or sell something comes here. As for the construction of Zhuangzi, it was planned early in the morning, but it was a little earlier. Our owner came here It was agreed at the right time, in the future we will build a major commercial town, let everyone in the vicinity come here to do business, let all farmers in Erlianzizhuang do business, in fact, there is no way to do it, I can take you to the crop field later Look, it’s all sandy land, with a total area of ​​just over 1000 mu, and our Zhuangzi now has more than 2000 people, and it’s impossible to support that many people just by farming.”

Tang Zhifeng is not a pedantic person, so naturally he would not look down on doing business, and he quite agrees after hearing the words.

Fat Bear brought a group of people to a place again, and said: "Look, everyone, this place used to be a big grocery store. It was our owner who saw that the people nearby were far away from the city, so it was convenient for everyone to do some cheap business. , but now it can’t meet the demand, so this place has been changed to a warehouse and a purchase office.”

A few people went in and took a look. The place is very large and there are many people. The back is full of various goods, which are arranged in an orderly manner, while the front is the place for purchases. All kinds of goods are collected, such as medicinal materials, game, and wild fruits. , agricultural products, handicrafts, and even scrap iron and poultry feathers, groceries are also delivered here.

Tang Zhifeng looked at the abnormally diverse goods, and said, "This purchase place is interesting, please talk to the old man carefully."

Fat Bear nodded and said carefully.

"After we collect things here, we sort them out."

"For example, the medicinal materials will be pulled to the medicinal material processing room next door to make various finished products. In addition to supplying to Zhuangzi's pharmacy, our owner also designed several healing medicines. The cost is much lower than ordinary healing medicines, but the effect But it’s very good, we usually sell it in Shuofang or Hedong County, and the profit is very high.”

"As for all kinds of game, the dead ones are processed immediately, and the skin and meat are separated. After the skin is processed, it is sold in a leather shop. The meat is usually eaten by farmers who work. Sometimes there are more prey, and they are also sold in shops. If the prey is taken to Chang'an City to sell, this Mr. Zhou should be very clear."

"As for all kinds of fruits and miscellaneous grains, we usually make wine. Those that are not suitable for wine making are made into various sauces. There are wine shops and sauce shops in the village, and we will also sell them in Jingzhao County or Beidi County. , are very easy to sell.”

"If the copper and iron are broken, they will be sent directly to the blacksmith shop we saw just now to be returned to the furnace. Usually, some kitchen utensils or agricultural tools are made, mostly for daily necessities."

"Others have their own processing methods. Even those chicken feathers, duck feathers and bird feathers, we will make various products, such as fans, soft pillows and so on."

"Agricultural products are not only supplied to the workers, but also processed. The owner of the farm asks everyone to use their wisdom and imagination, and strive to turn cheap into expensive after processing."

Everyone listened with gusto and found that this purchase office was really unusual.

Tang Zhifeng sighed: "This Li Wuchang is very good at getting rich...By the way, why would you think of doing business in Shuofang County? It's a bit far away."

Fat Bear replied: "It is indeed a bit far away, but the return is high. You all know that the situation there is tense. The Huns often attack Wuyuan County, so the business in Shuofang near Wuyuan is very good."

Zhou Chengwang asked curiously, "The reward is high? How high?"

Fat Xiong said: "For example, our owner has developed a medicine for external application, which is designed to treat various traumas. A bottle costs less than two taels, but it can be sold for eight taels of silver. Don't frown." ...This is not war money, our medicine is indeed better than others, and it is cheaper."

Everyone was startled.

This is too profitable.

Fat Bear chuckled and didn't explain much.

Tang Zhifeng didn't know much about business, so he thought about it carefully, nodded silently, and said, "Take us to another place."

Fat Bear nodded and said yes, he was very familiar with Zhuangzi, so he took everyone to visit the pharmacy and processing room first, and then explained the facilities under construction to everyone.

"This will be a big square. It's very convenient for everyone to relax or have a party later."

"A school is being built here. There is no place to go to school in the vicinity. There are so many children in Zhuangzi. How can they not go to school? It happens that there are some old scholars in Zhuangzi, and they can teach those children at that time."

……

Fat Bear introduced as he walked, and he participated in the discussion of all these, so the introduction did not take much effort.

There are many beautiful red brick houses at the foot of Dongshan Mountain that have attracted everyone's attention.

"These were built by the small merchants themselves, and the owner of the village has designated a place for him. They all escaped from the east of Feng Yi or the city, and donated some money, so the owner took them in, and they are also in the village. To do business, the owner said that everyone’s houses will be built at the foot of the mountain in the future, and they should be as close as possible, because the middle of the mountain is really inconvenient and unsafe. Occasionally, there will be incidents of wild animals hurting people. Dongshan has already started planning, and Xishan The foundation has already been laid over there," Fat Bear explained.

Zheng Wenlong wondered: "I remember that the riots and banditry in Bingzhuang have only been going on for less than two months. How come so many houses have been repaired so quickly?"

Fat Bear smiled and said: "What's the matter? There are many people and great strength. There are many workers in this area. You can gather hundreds of people at any time to build a house. How long will it take? You see that over there? Is there a row of brick kilns? There were only two in the past, but later the owner opened up a lot of brick kilns in order to allow more people to work. Anyway, there are many places that need bricks and tiles."

Everyone understands.

Fat Xiong introduced them along the way, saw the brick kiln in Dongshan, and went up the mountain to see a few medicine fields and a breeding farm under planning.

Everyone didn't feel tired at all, but very excited, and it was noon by accident.

"Oh, it's time for dinner. This place is a bit far from the owner's mansion. How about we go directly to the lake. The owner and the others are fishing there, and there is food to eat there." Fat Bear said.

"There's still a lake?" Zhou Chengwang wondered.

"Hehe, it's man-made. In order to prevent mountain floods, the owner organized people to dig up the muddy land in the north, and then used the stream on the mountain to store water. There were a few heavy rains not long ago, and the water was almost full. Fish I also released some, but the fishing is just for talk, and the owner probably wants to see the effect." Fat Xiong explained.

To the north, by the lake.

Li Wuchang looked at the hard work of several months, and was quite relieved. This artificial lake was really built, thanks to the hands and feet. The lake is very big, but not deep. The deepest place is only about two feet, and other places are generally ten feet. Half, three sides are backed by mountains, and the south side is built with soil and stones, and many trees have been transplanted to maintain water and soil, and the effect of water storage is not bad.

"Leng Shao, give me some hot wine!" Zhao Xun handed over a jug of wine.

Li Wuchang took the jug, shook his head with a smile, worked with both hands, Cang Yan Jue erupted with energy, immediately heated up the wine, and said with a smile: "Brother Xun, you are treating me like boiling water, right?" , besides, the wine must be drunk cold to be enjoyable."

Then return the jug to Zhao Xun.

"Hey, each other, when it was hot before, didn't you treat me like an ice cube? You always asked me to drink cold water. It's really enjoyable to drink cold wine, but it's not a good taste to drink hot wine occasionally. .” Zhao Xun took a sip of his wine.

Jiang Minglun, who was at the side, was fishing, and said with a smile: "One of you is hot and the other is cold, what should I do? Come on, Young Master Leng, heat me up too, this sweet wine tastes better if it is warmer."

Li Wuchang rolled his eyes, and performed another round of hot wine with his palms.

Not to mention, this Cang Yan Jue is really cool when it reaches its level. It can not only light a fire, but also heat wine and dishes, which is extremely convenient.

"This can only be called a big pond. It's a little bit reluctant to call it a lake. The area is still a bit like a lake, and the depth is far from enough." Jiang Minglun took the jug and commented on the lake.

"I think it doesn't matter whether it's called a lake or a pond. In short, it solves the problem of mountain torrents, raises some fish and shrimp, and waters the crops. It's very convenient." Zhao Xun laughed.

The problem of mountain torrents has indeed been solved. Not long ago, there were several heavy rains, and the water level in the lake rose sharply. The streams on the mountain were all diverted to the lake without rushing.

Li Wuchang took the opportunity to put a lot of fish in it. There are all kinds of fish, all of which were specially bought from Beidi County. There are fry, and there are also many big fish and miscellaneous fish. Today, I will try fishing in advance. .

The three of them moved a small stool and sat by the small tree on the south bank to start the big fishing contest.

There is a big table next to it, with a lot of melons and fruits, wine and appetizers on it.

It was a cloudy day, and occasionally there was a small wind blowing, so it was a little cold, but the three of them were all martial arts masters, and it was no problem to fight against this temperature. Drinking a little wine and fishing, it was really leisurely and tight.

So far, Jiang Minglun had the best results, catching four fish weighing about two catties, while Zhao Xun and Li Wuchang only caught a few small miscellaneous fish.

There are many aquatic plants on the three sides of the lake, so the water is relatively clear. Although a lot of trees have been transplanted on the south bank, it hasn't been long, so the water looks a bit turbid. Fish probably don't like to come to the south.

call!
"Haha, Leng Shao, you should be at the bottom now, let's see what this is?" Zhao Xun laughed.

It turned out that a big fish took the bait.

This dog luck!
Li Wuchang said helplessly: "Okay, I admit defeat, I will grill the fish myself later."

Then he ordered his subordinates, saying: "Qianyong, take the fish to deal with it, and take people to the cafeteria to prepare it. I will take charge of the spoon this time, and I will go back after eating. I will have a meeting in the evening and see if I can get a ticket with Wang Taishou." Great deal."

Hu Qianyong took a few younger brothers down with the fish bucket to prepare.

When the lake was built before, a temporary canteen was built at the foot of the mountain. It has not been demolished yet, and Li Wuchang is not planning to dismantle it. It is just used for cooking or resting. The facilities are complete, and there are still many supplies and food in it. There are vegetables, game, and now fish, so it's easy to have a big meal.
