shock!She can travel through time

The cold melon from Lin Mengli's family was sold to Yuyao's wife at the price of thirteen gold.The ten gold pieces were returned to Lin Wanwan. In a few months, their family made a net profit of three gold pieces, which drove the whole family crazy.

The people in the clan also wanted Lin Mengli to help sell it, but Lin Mengli didn't dare to accept the business.

He has exhausted his mind and energy just by keeping accounts and studying every day. It is his job to sell melons for his family, but he is not so active in selling melons to his clan brothers.

Take the kickback, it has a bad reputation; don't take it, it is a valuable item after all, what if something goes wrong?There is no benefit and you have to take risks. Why is he thankless to do this?
Therefore, he mainly dealt with the entrustments of the clan brothers.That is, Lin Mengbo, Lin Mengjin, and Lin Mengxing's three cousins' cold melons, and he is earnestly helping to push them.

The cold melons from these three families were quickly sold at the same price, and all of them were beaming for a while.

There were gradually bitter words in the clan, but fortunately Lin Mengli was not at home often, so he just pretended not to hear them.

The other three naturally wouldn't shout around, keeping a low profile.

The clansmen asked sourly how much they sold their cold melons, and the women just said they didn't know, while the men were in charge of important matters, and the men also said they didn't know, and the women were in charge of the money.

Fortunately, this sentiment didn't last too long, because Lin Jiazhuang held a monopoly cold melon, and it would be a matter of time before they sold it.

Soon the cold melons grown by other families were also sold at prices ranging from twelve to three gold. Only a few two families wanted to live in rare goods and hadn't sold them yet.

One of the households was Lin Qingyu's grandparents' family.

Brothers Lin Mengzhong and Lin Mengyi have been taking turns sleeping in the yard and guarding Hangua since the time when Hangua was about the size of two fists.

Up to now, the other houses have been sold, but they still have one thing on their minds.

This matter was mainly due to Lin Qingyu's former uncle, Lin Mengyi, who had given birth to two sons, was making up his mind.

According to Lin Mengzhong and his wife's thinking, if there is a chance, all twelve gold pieces should be sold, and it is the best policy to put the money in the pocket for security, after all, the cold melon can't be put away.

It's worth the price today, if the nobles don't love it tomorrow, who will sell it to!
But the boss, Lin Mengzhong, had only given birth to two daughters, so he always worked hard at home and had no right to speak.

So his younger brother Lin Mengyi persuaded his parents to continue hoarding cold melons and selling them at a high price, and the couple could only listen.

Lin Mengyi was moved to this idea because when he was selling fish at the wharf, he accidentally heard from foreign merchants that now the cold melons in Qiantang County are sold for fifteen or six gold a piece, and these cold melons are all from It flowed out of Yan County!

At this time in the Tang Dynasty, except for some small and poor-quality cold melons that could be grown in the Western Regions, the technology of growing cold melons had not been introduced in other regions.The ones that are circulating in the market are those brought by Lin Wanwan from the modern times.

It is not uncommon for such high-quality cold melon to be sold at sky-high prices in Qiantang County.

After all, in Chang'an, cold melons from the Western Regions, which are much inferior to the varieties of cold melons in Shan County, can't be bought even if they have money, and they are only for the emperor's relatives!

From ancient times to the present, the extravagant happiness of the rich has always been unimaginable to the lower class.It's like a banquet in the Grand View Garden in the Dream of Red Mansions can eat up a year's expenses for a middle-class family like Grandma Liu.

Ever since Lin Mengyi heard about the fact that cold melons were sold to nobles for fifteen to six gold, he was reluctant to sell his own cold melons at such a low price.

A distant cousin who is close to him also had the same mentality as him after hearing the news, and was reluctant to sell it at a low price.

One gold is six pennies!That's nearly 24 bolts of silk!There are three golds between twelve and three and fifteen and six!
It's not to blame that they have ideas, this is to support the bold and starve the timid.

In the early Tang Dynasty, an ordinary family of six people had an income of about 43 shi of grain a year without any disasters.

The annual food consumption of my family is about 33 shi, the cost of clothes is about 7 ren (about 3.5 shi), and the daily expenses such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are about [-]-[-] ren (about [-] shi). , income and expenditure are basically the same, and it is difficult to make a balance.

If we do some agricultural sidelines, such as planting mulberry and silkworms to subsidize the family, life will be more prosperous and we can have a surplus.

But in fact, it is already an idealized state just to be able to achieve "strength, self-sufficiency in food and clothing".

The group of people who can make a surplus belong to the rich peasant class, and their life is no longer what ordinary people can live.

There were many natural disasters in the early Tang Dynasty, and many real farmers were hungry.At least the young and middle-aged people in the Lin Family Manor had never had a full and satisfying day before Lin Wanwan came.

But now, just planting a cold melon, in just a few months, you can get a total income comparable to the previous year's hard work.For the first time this time, what a cool word!
The people in the whole village who had the courage to ask Lin Wanwan to plant seedlings on credit were all beaming, and those who didn't have the courage to make a fortune, felt a little jealous when they saw others get rich.

Fortunately, Patriarch Lin has a lot of prestige, and he is unwilling to take advantage of Lin Wanwan, so his family does not grow cold melons.

When everyone saw that there was no patriarch's house, they felt a little more balanced.

In this group of the clan, there are eleven families who have made a windfall from the cold melon, and there are two more families who are waiting to make a fortune.So during this period of time, the entire Lin family village has attracted a lot of attention in ten miles and eight townships.

There were nearly ten families engaged in marriage alone, and matchmakers stepped into the Lin family village every day, and the Lin patriarch was so happy that he couldn't find the north.

It is his greatest mission as the patriarch to let the clan prosper, and seeing how the situation is going well now, how can he be unhappy.

But everything is always good and bad, and high income naturally brings high risks.

This cold melon craze was too great, and finally on a dark and windy day, something big happened.

He had already boarded a merchant ship to Qiantang, and was thinking that Lin Guofu's house (Grandpa Xiao Qingyu's house), which was waiting for someone to bring silk to exchange cold melons, caught fire that night!

The fire was very fierce, but fortunately, the whole family hadn't slept soundly because of the anxiety over the past few days, so they all escaped before the fire got bigger.

A raging fire broke out inside and outside the house, and the entire Lin family village was soon startled by the sounds of the women and children in their family beating pots and crying.

The clansmen of the Lin family village, including the servants of Lin Wanwan's family, all ran out, carrying buckets, to fight the fire.

Lin Qingyu's former grandmother, Lin Lushi, and Lin Mengyi's wife, Lin Sunshi, slapped the ground and howled, not knowing what to do other than howl.

The eldest's wife hugged the children tightly to prevent the children from running around the fire scene. It was a mess here, and the crying was loud.

After the fire was extinguished, everyone looked at Lin Mengyi who had been burnt to a scorched corpse under the night, their eyes were all red. The tragedy in the world happened before their eyes, how can it be heartbreaking!
