Chapter 139 Negotiation (Subscription and Pink, Red Envelope)

I recommend two books, "Confused King" and "Overbearing CEO Falls in Love with Her".

"Well, my daughter's illness requires more than a dozen medicinal herbs, but there is one medicinal herb that is precious and hard to find. In the past few years, other medicinal herbs have been found, but the thousand-year-old purple ganoderma is nowhere to be found. The thousand-year-old purple ganoderma is nowhere to be found. Follow, and there is a price but no market," Mrs. Wen said sadly.

Purple ganoderma?Yi Xue smiled. She found a lot of Ganoderma lucidum on Huawang Mountain, and she didn't check carefully that they were dated. In addition to the effect of time in space, they should be thousands of years old.

Yi Xue secretly checked in the space, and sure enough, she found a few purple Ganoderma lucidum, which had medicinal effects for thousands of years.Fortunately, Yi Xue also planted a lot of ganoderma and ginseng in the space, just for emergencies, but unexpectedly, she still has some.

"Ma'am, I like to collect precious herbs. There should be a Millennium Purple Ganoderma lucidum on the outside of the carriage, which should be used to treat my sister's illness," Yi Xue said with a smile.

"What?" Wenshi and Wen Ruonan were shocked at the same time, first surprised, then shook their heads, "No, no, how do you accept such a precious thing?"

Yi Xue knew what they were afraid of. According to Master Wen's rules, they must not accept expensive gifts privately, especially such things that even rich people can't buy.

"Madam, sister, purple ganoderma is not very useful to me. Of course, if Madam thinks it is too valuable, you might as well ask my sister to stay with me for a few days and do some work for me. It will be paid for." , she said half-jokingly, only in this way can they let their guard down.

When Wen Shi heard Yi Xue say this, she was amused by her words, and said dumbfoundedly, "You girl, you actually got my daughter's idea, how can I let my daughter suffer?"

"Mother..." Wen Ruonan blushed, shook Mrs. Wen's arm, and shyly called out.

"Hehe, why are you shy...but I really dare not accept such a valuable thing. We only need a little. If the girl doesn't mind it, let Ruonan go to your place to work for you and pay back the money."

"Mother..." Wen Ruonan didn't expect her mother to sell herself so soon, but she could see that her mother was really happy.

Wen said, "Ruo Nan, it's your good luck to meet Miss Wang today. I can cure your illness, and my mother will feel at ease. I'm sure your father will like it too."

Yi Xue said with a smile, "Ma'am, my sister's health is fine, since she can be cured, why worry about it, besides, I like such a wonderful person like my sister."

Mrs. Wen didn't feel disgusted by what Yi Xue said so blatantly, but on the contrary, she liked Yi Xue's straightforwardness even more.

"Small mouth is so sweet, no wonder Ruonan has been saying your name since he came back from Huawang Town, he is really a good boy," Mrs. Wen said with a smile.

Even so, Mrs. Wen still has some ideas. Just imagine that a hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum can be sold for a thousand taels of silver. The thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is a sky-high price.Even if it is a little bit, it will be a lot of money when combined.

"Girl, what is the price of this Ganoderma lucidum?" Mrs. Wen asked.

Yi Xue knew that Mrs. Wen still didn't fully listen to what she said, and she was afraid that it would be difficult for her, and she couldn't make her feel that she was so polite because she was asking for help, so she said, "Ma'am, this Ganoderma lucidum is counted as 30 taels of silver. Living in the house for a period of time, and chatting with me when you are free, it is considered a reward."

"My sister is really cruel. If you let me do coolies, I won't be afraid of eating your money, but you won't be able to earn a penny." Wen Ruonan is a smart person. Seeing that Yi Xue is so considerate of himself and his mother, he is grateful in his heart.

Wen was stunned, 30 taels, and asked the little girl to live with her. She didn't know how to answer, so she hesitated for a moment, and said, "Girl, you have to get the master's consent for this matter."

Yi Xue nodded. It just so happened that a servant reported that the master had returned and was meeting the elders in the main hall.

"Since the master is here, let's ask," Wen said happily.

Wen Ruonan said, "Mother, my sister still has important matters, so I'll let my sister finish her business and discuss it later."

Wen shi patted his forehead, "I'm the one in a hurry, girl, you should go see the master first."

"I'll go too," Ruonan said.

"Well, there are big men there, you are a daughter's family, don't go beyond the rules," Zhang refused.

"Mother, sister Yi Xue is also a girl, if I don't go, she will be very lonely," Wen Ruonan said coquettishly.

"Well, yes, you can go with the girl, but don't talk nonsense," Mrs. Wen urged.

Yi Xue took Wen Ruonan's hand, chatting and laughing, and followed the boy to the main hall. After entering the hall, he saw a black-faced literati, a middle-aged man with a stern face sitting at the top, and the chief of the village and the village chief at the bottom. , and Xiaojun stood behind the village chief because he was a child and had no fame.

"My lord, the girl from the Wang family is here," the servant reported.

Master Wen's face moved slightly, then he got up and said, "Please sit down, girl."The words were very calm and formal, which made Yi Xue feel as if she was being promoted.Yi Xue pulled Wen Ruonan to sit next to the village chief, not knowing what the village chief said.

Master Wen frowned inadvertently when he saw his daughter following Yi Xue, but didn't say anything.

"Big ya, we've already talked about the matter, as for some other details, I still need you to talk about it." The Li Chang smiled faintly.

Yi Xue didn't know what they said, so she could only say, "My lord, do you know something about Carbon?"

Master Wen nodded, "I know, I don't know what you mean."

Yi Xue looked at the village chief and the district chief, both of them nodded first and then shook their heads, Yi Xue understood that they didn't talk about the stock split.Then he said, "My lord, this thing is not mentioned in the court regulations, so I want to operate it"

Mr. Wen nodded, then called the boy, read a book of regulations carefully for a while, put it down, and said, "There is no mention of how to deal with this kind of thing in the court regulations, it is not considered military supplies, it is not considered The salt tank can be operated independently”

Yi Xue smiled, this is what she wanted, and then said, "Master, since this is the case, I want to benefit the local people, so I want to let the government, the village and my family run together."

Master Wen trembled, and asked in disbelief, "You mean our government is involved?"

Yi Xue nodded, and Master Wen immediately said, "No, according to the court regulations, the government is not allowed to compete with the people for profit, otherwise the sentence will be severe."

Hearing what Master Wen said, she was still a little excited, at least Master Wen recognized that carbon can be sold in business.But it was unexpected to hear Mrs. Wen's refusal. After a moment of embarrassment, Yi Xue naturally wouldn't give up.

"Your Excellency, it is not for the government to directly participate. I just heard that there is a secretary in the government office, who manages local taxation. If possible, you can use the shares as tax money. Since you can pay more tax money, you can pay more tax money. Guarantee local development. Besides, adults don’t have to worry about us evading taxes and money, and we also think about how to support the national treasury.”

Seeing Mr. Wen looking at him strangely, Yi Xue knew that his mind had moved, and then said, "I heard that the border has been tightened recently, and the food and wages are insufficient, and the money earned from digging carbon during this period can also relieve part of it."

Mr. Wen was immediately interested in this proposal. Siwu was just a title. Although it was an institution of the county government, there was only the county magistrate, and the final decision-maker was the county magistrate.Of course, the most important thing is Yi Xue's last sentence. The court has long known that the northern barbarians will take action in winter, and now they have started collecting food. Kao City is close to the border, and it is the border army's reliance, and supplies must pass through here.If you have a sum of money, you can buy more food to prevent food shortages in winter. Even if it is not used for the army, it is necessary to prevent sudden snow disasters and provide relief to the people.

"I don't know how the girl divides the shares, and how can she guarantee that she will only have a lot more than the tax money?" Master Wen became interested and asked the most practical question to the point.

Yixue pursed her lips and smiled, secretly pleased, and said, "My lord, in order for the common people to burn it, so a catty of charcoal is priced at ten cents, and after deducting the cost of two cents per catty, there are still eight cents left. According to the tax and profit, It should be three Wen, but what I think is, give [-]% of the profit to the county government as tax bank, [-]% to Murakami, and [-]% to my own, how about it?"

Mrs. Wen gasped. The three achievements were nearly two and a half pennies. According to the output of 75 catties they can dig out every day, that would be 2000 taels of silver, and more than [-] taels of silver in a month. This is simply a huge profit.

"Girl is so willing?" Master Wen asked nervously, he was frightened by the profit, his body trembling a little while sitting still.Kao City is so big, the monthly tax is only more than 3000 taels of silver, and the sales of this carbon alone are almost equivalent.

Yi Xue naturally knew what Master Wen was thinking, and said, "My lord, it is estimated that we will need to invest in the early stage, so the output will not be high, and in the later stage, due to the thick soil layer, it will be difficult to mine, and there will not be so much output. Besides, it will not be so much in summer. , and there is no need to burn carbon, so the output is not constant.”

Mr. Wen didn't know how to mine carbon, so he asked, "How much can you estimate in a year?"

Yi Xue snapped her fingers and said, "It's estimated to be around 60 catties. This is a conservative calculation."

In fact, it is not much at all, only [-] tons a year. In modern times, it is estimated that a large pit of more than [-] meters has been dug.

Master Wen smiled, his dull face finally revealed a smile, "I agree to this matter."

"Your Excellency is wise," the village head and the head of the village stood up and bowed happily.

Yi Xue was happy in her heart, but at the same time, she thought in her heart that if she had enough people and made some useful tools, she would have a million catties in a year.Of course she wouldn't say anything about it.Just kidding, an ordinary peasant family burns no less than three tons of carbon a year.

What's so unusual about this year's output.

"My lord, can we make a contract?" Yi Xue asked.

Master Wen waved his hand, "No hurry, I want to go and see for myself, if it's what the girl said, it must be done well"

Yi Xue nodded, this Master Wen is really a pragmatic person, and it is fortunate that Kao City has such a good official.

"My lord, there is one more thing, I hope your lord can make the decision," Yi Xue said.

"Girl, please tell me," Master Wen said.

"My lord, in order to prevent merchants from hoarding and selling at a high price during the sale, I think that in the future, the coal used by the common people will be sold by the housekeeper, and the quota will be set according to the number of households," Yixue said.

Master Wen's eyes lit up, and then he took a look at Yi Xue, this little girl really had insight, she saw the vital point immediately, and gave Yi Xue another high look.
