Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

  Chapter 790 790. A thousand catties of salt

  Sun Shisheng is the eldest son of the landlord. The landlord’s family raises many pigs. Before that, Chu Qingzhi went to their house to buy many piglets.

   Landlord Sun was also worried, and said, "The end of the year is approaching, and everyone has hoarded pigs until now to sell them. The price of pork in the market is dropping every day, and now we can't make much money by selling them."

  Sun Shisheng said anxiously, "If you don't sell it now, the price will drop even lower in the future, and you won't be able to make any money."

   Landlord Sun didn’t say a word. The price of pork is one day a day, and it’s not easy to sell. He is also very troubled.

  Sun Shisheng said, "Father, you should quickly think of a way. Silence is golden."

  Sun Landlord was irritated by Sun Shisheng's words, "If I could think of a way, I would have bought the pig, and I still need to listen to you here. You are young and smart, why didn't you think of a way."

  Sun Shisheng said brightly, "Father, you are wrong to say that. As the saying goes, Jiang is still old and spicy. I am young, but I am not experienced enough."

  Landlord Sun glanced at his son, snorted, got up and left the house.

  Sun Shisheng touched his nose, and he wanted to think of a way, but he didn't have enough brains, so there was nothing he could do.

  Landlord Sun wandered around the village, then the pig shed, and then came to Chujia Village.

   I have always heard that Chu Qingzhi is smart, and now my family is a commoner in her fief, so you can ask her if you have any problems.

   With this thought in mind, Landlord Sun quickened his pace.

  …

  Chu Family Village.

  With the efforts of everyone, Chu Qingzhi's bamboo house slowly took shape.

  The bamboo house has seven rooms in total, three of which handle three types of business, one is used for waiting for people who come to do business, one is used for storing materials, one is used as a warehouse, and the remaining one is used as a spare.

  There is a small yard in front of it, when the time comes, plant some flowers and plants to decorate it...

  Father Li is a good house builder. After Chu Qingzhi's observation, his craftsmanship is no worse than An Shanwu's, but his personality is too honest, he can only be a worker, not a manager.

   With him looking at the bamboo house, Chu Qingzhi can handle other things with peace of mind.

  Chu Qingzhi went to the county seat, bought some dyes at the dye shop, and then went to the medicinal materials shop to buy some medicinal materials.

  Bamboo houses need to prevent insects and dampness. Chu Qingzhi plans to use dyes and medicinal materials to prepare a kind of paint, and then apply it on bamboo houses. It can not only dye, but also prevent insects and dampness.

  She prepared the paint and just handed it to Father Li when she saw Landlord Sun walking towards her.

  The two had business contacts and knew each other.

  Landlord Sun greeted him respectfully, "I have seen Qian Huhou."

  Chu Qingzhi looked at Landlord Sun and said, "Excuse me, Landlord Sun has something to say." These people only come to her when they encounter problems that cannot be resolved.

   Landlord Sun frowned into a figure of eight, "The pigs at home can't be sold, can the girl think of something?"

  Selling pigs is a business, and the money from the sale will go to Chu Qingzhi to pay part of the business tax.

  After Chu Qingzhi was canonized as Marquis of a Thousand Households, the tax of Chu's Yimao would not have to be handed over to the government, but just be given to her directly. Giving it to her means that there is no need to pay taxes.

  The commercial tax is 20%, and Chu’s Yimao has to pay one thousand taels of silver to the government every month. After not paying tax, the family is happy for a long time.

  Chu Qingzhi asked, "How many pigs do you have that can be sold?"

  Sun Landlord hurriedly said, "There are 150 heads, and each head weighs more than 200 catties. In fact, they can be sold, but the price is too low..."

  Chu Qingzhi thought to herself, the family needs a lot of pork, but there is already a supply of pork, and the contract has been signed, if you buy more, there will be more, so you can only find another way.

  A gust of cold wind blows...

  Chu Qingzhi felt the cold wind, and had an idea in her mind, can pork be used as bacon? !

  In this era, the price of salt was high, and the common people did not have the awareness of curing bacon, so there was no bacon.

   Pork can be used not only as bacon, but also as sausage, cured pork ribs, and sauced meat. These are all very good pickled foods.

   In addition, pig hair can also be used to make toothbrushes, and fat meat can be used to make soap soap. Some people buy these, and after all, a pig can use them all.

   There are toothbrushes in this era, but the workmanship is relatively rough, and they can barely be eaten.

  Chu Qingzhi said, "Sell your pig to me?"

   Landlord Sun was pleasantly surprised, "Do you want all the girls?"

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "I bought it at the normal price, but I need to prepare some things, and I have to wait until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to slaughter, can you wait?"

  Sun Landlord was very happy, "You can wait, you can wait, the girl has helped me a lot."

  Chu Qingzhi said, "You go back first, I will send someone to notify you when the time comes."

   Landlord Sun responded hurriedly, "Yes, please, thank you, Miss."

   "Yes." Chu Qingzhi returned to the room and wrote down a list of spices, pepper, kaempferen, cinnamon and other raw materials for marinating bacon, followed by the weight.

  After finishing writing, give the list to Chu Haodong, "Buy everything before noon tomorrow."

  Chu Haodong took the list and looked at it, "OK."

  At this time, an unexpected person came to the village, "Girl, I have something important for you."

  Chu Qingzhi turned her head to look, it was Master, "Master."

The master came on horseback, a scholar, riding a horse made him difficult, after he got off the horse, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Chu Qingzhi, "This is the salt you asked the emperor for, two hundred dan a year (1 Dan is equal to 100 jin, and two hundred dan is 20,000 jin.)

  He secretly said that Chu Qingzhi was the first person who dared to ask the emperor for something, and he admired him.

  The point is that Yanyin is the most difficult thing to get at the moment, and the emperor gave her two hundred dan directly, which is too partial.

  Chu Qingzhi smiled slightly, "Thank you, Master, for making a trip, why don't you go home and have a cup of tea?"

  Master waved his hand, "No, no, I have other things to do, hurry up."

  Chu Qingzhi said politely, "Then master, go slowly."

  Master cupped his hands, "Farewell."

  Chu Qingzhi looked at Yanyin again, and when she fell asleep, she passed the pillow. Using Yanyin to buy salt from 'Quarantine Services' can save half the price, and save money.

  Question for goods: Specializes in national monopoly items such as tea, salt, iron, etc., and accepts merchants to give coupons with money, and enters Zhongyan to sell fragrant medicines, elephant goods, etc. There are corresponding agencies in cities and counties.

   Before Chu Haodong left, Chu Qingzhi led the salt to him, "Go and buy a thousand catties of salt immediately and come back."

   "Yes." Chu Haodong felt that he had grown up again. He could still see Yanyin in this life, and he could use Yanyin to buy salt. Others did not have such an honor.

  With Yanyin, buying salt went very smoothly, and the 'Quarantine Service' knew that it was Chu Qingzhi who bought the salt, and quietly gave her ten catties as a good deal.

  …

   The gate of the yard.

   "Qingzhi!" A slender pretty girl in a pink dress walked towards Chu Qingzhi.

  Chu Qingzhi looked over, "Wanwan."

  After more than three months of recovery, Yu Wanwan's body has not only returned to normal, but also has curves. In addition, she is tall, so she looks very seductive.
