……

The geographical location of Dayu Town is very special. It is at the entrance of a bay and has a natural barrier, making it a natural haven.

This harbor goes deep inland. If it were not for the narrow water area that cannot accommodate the navigation of large fleets, the fishing town would definitely develop into a very large town.

But even so, it is enough for ordinary people in Dayu Town to go fishing in the sea and bring a lot of wealth.

Xu Fei came to the dock in the north
It’s more lively here than in town!
The sun was shining brightly, and teams of coolie workers, wearing bamboo hats, singlets and shorts, shuttled back and forth on the dock carrying heavy goods.

Their skin was tanned by the sun, and sweat fell from their foreheads!

On the water, fishing boats were busy coming in and out, and the boatmen rowed hard...

Xu Fei came here just to make money.

After all, the method of 'deceiving people' is not a long-term solution.

If you want to make money quickly, besides robbing homes and houses, you can do business.

Salt and iron have always been the most profitable business!
Since it was close to the seaside, Xu Fei naturally thought of making salt!
As a modern person, basically anyone can make salt from sea water, as long as you have the hands!

As for whether the authorities agree?

Ju Xufei understood that although he lived in a feudal dynasty,

But on the surface of the dynasty, it was the imperial government that made the final decisions.

But in fact, it is controlled by various local forces such as sects and aristocratic families!

Just like the fishing town where Xu Fei is located, it is under the jurisdiction of 'Bibo Village'.

Ask a few locals for specific information, and everyone will know.

The Bi family of Bibozhuang is a thousand-year-old wealthy family with tens of thousands of people in the family!Owner: Bizhuang.He has a bold and unrestrained personality, powerful palm skills, and is good at the "Wave Palm Technique", which is the unique palm technique of Bibo Villa. It mainly relies on water power and can walk on the water like flying.

Bibo Village does not prohibit private refining of sea salt.

As long as you pay a 'protection fee', you can do whatever you like!

Xu Fei did not refining salt from scratch. After all, finished sea salt can be purchased on the market, but the quality is too poor.

He only needs to purify the sea salt he bought, make it into refined salt, buy and sell it, and get a lot of money from the price difference.

Just come to a shop
Looking at the baskets of coarse sea salt placed at the door, there are various impurities in them.

"Boss, how do you sell this salt?"

The half-naked boss who was carrying goods looked back at Xu Fei and looked at the sea salt in the bamboo basket at his fingertips.

He immediately replied: "The outermost baskets cost twenty cents each, but you can't eat these sea salts!"

"Your Majesty, you'd better come inside and take a look. I have good refined salt here!"

"No, I want this!"

After paying the money, Xu Fei picked up a basket of sea salt weighing [-] kilograms with one hand and left directly.

I found a deserted place, built a stove with stones, put the purchased earthen pot on it, filled it with water, added sea salt, put on firewood, and lit a fire to cook.

Dissolve, filter, evaporate, crystallize, grind...

After a set of operation procedures, a whole basket of sea salt with impurities was left, which was originally bitter and rough.

It turned into two earthen jars of refined salt shaped like snowflakes.

After sealing the jar, Xu Fei carried it back to Dayu Town.

It is not recycled directly to those salt shops.

Instead, he found a relatively large restaurant and started selling door-to-door.

"Guest officer, please come inside!"

As soon as I entered the store, I was greeted by a waiter.

"Sir, let me hold your things for you!"

Seeing that he was about to reach out to help him hold the salt shaker, Xu Fei immediately refused and said, "No, I can do it myself."

"Where is your shopkeeper?"

"Sir, what do you want from our shopkeeper?"

"I have a business deal to discuss with him!" The waiter looked at Xu Fei and saw that he had an extraordinary temperament. Then he pointed to the counter and said, "My shopkeeper is settling accounts in front of the counter right now!"

"Ok!"

Xu Fei came to the counter holding two salt shakers.

I saw the shopkeeper in front of me. He was short and fat, with a head full of shiny black hair, a chubby face, fair skin, and small eyes that narrowed into a slit when he smiled.

Wearing a green-blue gown, the cuffs and hem of the clothes are hemmed with blue cloth, and he wears black stockings and black cloth shoes on his feet.

His fingers are thick and short, but they look very flexible. He can do abacus very quickly. There are some wrinkles on his palms, which shows that he is very experienced.

"What's the matter with this guest officer?"

His voice was hoarse but strong, and he had a smile and seemed very affable.

Xu Fei placed two jars of salt in front of him and opened them for him to watch.

"Hey, this is really good salt!"

When the shopkeeper saw the snowflake salt in the salt shaker, he couldn't help but grab a handful and grind it carefully with his hands. He also tasted it with his tongue and found that there was no bitter taste at all.

"The shopkeeper, what's your name?"

"My surname is Chen!"

"Oh, Shopkeeper Chen!"

"My surname is Xu. I want to sell you these two cans of refined salt. I wonder if you are willing to accept them?"

"Yes, of course I will accept such good salt. How much do you want?"

Although Xu Fei had inquired about the price of refined salt, after all, such good salt was not comparable to those of other salts, and he didn't know how much it would cost.

"Shopkeeper Chen, please give me a price. If it's suitable, I'll sell it to you!"

Shopkeeper Chen twirled the refined salt in the earthen jar, thought about it and said: "Although salt is good salt, we are not short of salt after all. I am willing to do the same!"

"make a deal!"

Twenty literary changes are consistent, this is already a huge profit and cannot be any more huge!
Pay in one hand and deliver in one hand.

The money and goods were cleared, and Xu Fei left with all his money.
Next he has to solve the housing problem.

On the way here, he discovered that there were many neatly arranged small courtyards outside Dayu Town.

This small square courtyard is Xu Fei's favorite place to live.

I went to a dental shop to inquire and found out that buying a small courtyard actually costs 20 taels!
You can rent even if you can’t afford it!
It only costs eighty cents a month.

Xu Fei doesn't have enough money now, but he will be able to afford it soon, so he will rent it for a month first.

Under the guidance of the dental shop clerk, Xu Fei visited three small rented courtyards.

Among them, he selected the one that best suited his heart.

The small courtyard has a large space with a deep courtyard. The courtyard is surrounded by low earth walls. The top of the wall is covered with green wild grass. Occasionally, you can see a few bright wild flowers swaying gently in the breeze at the corner of the wall. .

There is also a well in the corner. Next to the well is a stone sink filled with clear water.

Next to the sink is a pile of firewood and a few farm tools left behind by the previous owner.

Xu Fei thought he could open a vegetable garden here.

The vegetable field is filled with various vegetables, and some fruit trees can be planted on the edge. A few hens can be raised under the fruit trees...

After that, the picture of a better life immediately emerged.

A main house made of blue bricks. The windows in the cabin are small but have plenty of light.

Although the door is a little worn, it is still strong and has some vaguely auspicious patterns carved on it.

On the side of the small courtyard is a kitchen and a room full of sundries.

"Yes, let's rent this!"

After signing a contract with his clerk, Xu Fei officially lived here.
