spnChapter 40 Ways to Make Money

Jia Baoyu didn't go out for two months, and this time he suddenly went out and brought a lot of money, of course it was not simply to help Xichun buy something or go shopping, Jia Baoyu wanted to find a way to see if he could find some money way.

It is common practice to find ways to earn money after time travelling. Jia Baoyu wanted to avoid the vulgarity, but it was unavoidable. The market with the most people is naturally the most intuitive way to observe what is there and what is missing.

After some inspections, Jia Baoyu was a little unbelieving, because the facts told Jia Baoyu that he didn't know where there was a way to make money, such as papermaking, soapmaking, glassmaking, and winemaking. Good is not something that Jia Baoyu's level can improve.

Originally, Jia Baoyu thought about making wine and forget it. Jia Baoyu didn’t know how many books he had read about this method, but Jia Baoyu asked about the current wine making technology. Various concentrations are not a problem, and wine is as early as hundreds of years ago. It was there before. [

Others such as perfume already exist, but they are not yet popular, and even without Jia Baoyu, this perfume cannot be made. How does he, a science student studying civil engineering, know these things?

In order to confirm that he didn't miss anything, Jia Baoyu looked around the market again, and finally confirmed that there was everything he could think of here, and Jia Baoyu couldn't help feeling disappointed when he saw this. ,

Seeing that Jia Baoyu had visited the market twice, asking a few questions from time to time and not buying anything, the Mingyan people who followed were all puzzled, but seeing Jia Baoyu's original enthusiasm became more and more intense. Worse, but not good at speaking, afraid of being scolded.

It wasn't until Jia Baoyu stopped to drink smoke that he dared to speak and said, "What's wrong with the second master? Could it be that he didn't find anything suitable? If so, there are two streets to the south. Although it is not as prosperous as this place, there are still many novelties. Things, how about taking the little one with the second master?"

Jia Baoyu shook his head and said: "It's not like that, I'll stay on this street for a while! It's getting late now, I will pick some things for my fourth sister and send them to my yard, and then I will go to Xue Big brother's banquet."

After hearing this, Mingyan quickly said yes, Jia Baoyu then put aside his thoughts of making money, and concentrated on browsing the scenery of this never-before-seen dynasty. But the various situations of this Hua Dynasty are somewhat similar to the Qing Dynasty that Jia Baoyu knew.

Of course, this is not about ethnic conflicts and power struggles, but about the prosperity of the market. This shows that the Hua Dynasty's rule after a hundred years is still very good. Looking at the elegant and not vulgar or very interesting objects at the roadside stalls, I spent a few pennies to buy them and threw them to the tea smoke, and then threw the tea smoke to the three hoe medicines who were waiting. At this time, everyone was holding a bag that Jia Baoyu had ordered to prepare.

It didn't take long for the three servants to pack half a bag of things, but Jia Baoyu only spent more than one tael of silver at this time. Jia Baoyu could only lament that he was a rich man now, and he would throw away a grasshopper After entering, Jia Baoyu saw that the time was almost noon, so Jia Baoyu stopped the continuous sweep and decided to go to Xue Pan's banquet.

Now Jia Baoyu is not unhappy or anything. From the bottom of his heart, Jia Baoyu is still very happy to participate in this kind of gathering. After all, this kind of gathering can still get a lot of benefits. At least he can know who those people are. Friends, it is better to make a precautionary strategy early.

Now that he is making money, Jia Baoyu's wish to make Jia's house not in short supply is half in vain, but this does not mean that his wish to save Jia's house cannot be realized. Money is something outside of the body. To be honest, these things are nothing.

The sudden fall of Jia's mansion was due to red studies enthusiasts who have studied for hundreds of years and failed to get a thorough understanding. What's more, it is not the original world of red chambers now. Something is changing little by little.

The downfall of a big family is naturally caused by internal and external troubles, not to mention a big family like the Jia family, in which Wang, Shi, and Xue's families are merged. Some say it is the wrong team, and some say it is something else. What is the reason? In a word, external troubles account for a large part. If external troubles are not resolved and internal troubles erupt, what Jia Baoyu has to do is to do his best to make internal troubles smaller and foreign troubles disappear. .

In Jia Baoyu's memory, he doesn't have too many memories of Juxian Building. Obviously, the previous Jia Baoyu didn't come to that place very often, so Jia Baoyu let Mingyan lead the way, and he wanted to carry so many small things. It's not convenient, not to mention that some of them are easily damaged, so I ordered the hoe to send the things back first.

Mingyan was in front, Jia Baoyu was in the middle, Yinquan and Mo Yu were in the back, and the group of four went to Juxian Building. Halfway through the journey, Jia Baoyu suddenly saw a very elegant street. There were no archways on the street. The name is just a picture of many musical instruments.

Jia Baoyu was a little curious and asked, "What is this place?"

After hearing Jia Baoyu's question, Yinquan, who was closest to Jia Baoyu, answered, "This is a street selling musical instruments. I heard that it is very famous. Most of the musical instruments in various mansions come from here."

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he suddenly thought about it. If Jia Baoyu knew one kind of musical instrument, it would be Xiao. This was the favorite of the director of the orphanage where Jia Baoyu was. The dean also handed over Jia Baoyu, who expected Jia Baoyu to be quite talented in this, and he learned it after only a few weeks of study.

For many years after that, Jia Baoyu never left this homework, but it is a pity that it has declined a bit in modern times, and there are too many factors needed to become famous. Although Jia Baoyu is talented, his education level is too poor. The level can only be said to be top-notch, plus there is no money to learn music, and I can’t compose music by myself, and I don’t have much opportunity, so I have always played in my spare time.

In the past two months, because I haven't seen the flute in Jia Baoyu's room and I don't have the thought, so I never played it. Now that I think about it, I feel a little itchy. I want to buy a good flute to practice my skills. It is really sad to let go of what I have been used to for more than ten years. [

"Go in and have a look!" After Jia Baoyu said that, he took the lead to go to this street. Mingyan wanted to say that it was getting late now, and if he didn't go, it would be too late, but he didn't want to disturb Jia Baoyu's good mood. , then forcibly swallowed the words that came to his lips.

As for Yinquan and Moyu, they don’t know much about it. Jia Baoyu doesn’t read one by one. He likes to read the name when he buys things. In addition, it’s not too early. Yes, so Jia Baoyu read the names of each store, and only went in when he found one he liked.

A street is almost at the end, but Jia Baoyu has not seen a name he likes more. Mingyan and the others are thinking in their hearts, saying that the second master Bao has changed, but this picky problem has not diminished at all. .

Jia Baoyu didn't find a suitable place until he reached the end of the street. He wanted to find a random place, but he accidentally saw a small door at the corner in front of him, which seemed a little mysterious.

Jia Baoyu walked over, and Mingyan and the three hurriedly followed, but Jia Baoyu showed surprise at that time, because all kinds of bamboo flutes were hung outside the whole store, and Jia Baoyu raised his head to see the name of the store But I couldn't find it, and then I saw the three words Xiangfei Pavilion on the left side of the store.

This name instantly reminded Jia Baoyu of Daiyu. Aiwu and Wuxia were not afraid that the shop was small and there were no good things, so they walked in, but there were dozens of exquisite bamboo flutes hanging on the wall. Those bamboo flutes outside could be compared, but upon closer inspection, it was found that they were all made of Xiangfei bamboo. Jia Baoyu then understood why it was called the Xiangfei Pavilion.

Because the space inside is too small, Yinquan and Mo Yu didn't come in, but waited outside, only Mingyan followed in, and there was only Xiao in this room, but there was no one there. , There are customers coming to the door, come out soon, store, store."

Mingyan yelled over and over again, but no one came, and when he was about to go in, an old voice suddenly came, "What's the noise? It's disturbing people's dreams at noon. The young man doesn't know how to accumulate virtue."

Then I saw a very old man coming out of the back room slowly, looking at him like that, Jia Baoyu had the feeling that he would die in a second, Ming Yan was going to be angry, but seeing the old man behave like this It's also embarrassing.

Respecting the old and caring for the young is a good quality of the Chinese nation. Naturally, Jia Baoyu respects such an old man in his dying years. After signaling Mingyan to stop talking, Jia Baoyu stepped forward and said: "Old man, I want to buy a flute here. I don't know if there is anything suitable."

The old man looked up at Jia Baoyu for a little surprise, then laughed dryly and said, "You know some manners, unlike the boy next to you who doesn't know the rules."

After finishing speaking, he said to Mingyan: "Learn from your master."

Mingyan was about to refute, but was stopped by Jia Baoyu. For some reason, when the old man raised his head to look at Jia Baoyu just now, Jia Baoyu had a feeling of being completely seen through. What surprised Jia Baoyu even more was that the old man's eyes actually Shibi's spirit doesn't feel like he's dying at all. In short, it's as if those eyes don't belong to the old man in front of him at all.

Of course, whether it was an illusion or not, Jia Baoyu would not let Mingyan salute an old man. He has received more than ten years of education to prevent him from doing so.
