Peixian County, a place full of outstanding people, has been a bit lively recently.
Yihuo and Yongchi came back with a lot of money.
Yi Huo relied on this sword to return home in rich clothes. Yong Chi also benefited from the glory, from a humble servant to a recent partner.
Yong Chi's little money was nothing in Yi Huo's eyes. But if you put it in Surabaya Pavilion, it can be considered a well-off family.
If it were in the past, Yong Chi would probably have bought a house and land, married a wife and lived a happy life.
But after seeing around Xianyang City, Yong Chi's outlook on things was completely changed.
His horizons have broadened, and he feels that if he wants to become a master, he must be as courageous, wise and capable as the banished immortal.
Yong Chi doesn't have any of these things, but it doesn't matter, as long as he follows the banished immortal, he should be fine.
Therefore, Yong Chi took out all his belongings and bought fertilizer along with Yi Huo.
The two of them hired hundreds of cars and drove the fertilizer back to their hometown.
Such a team quickly attracted crowds of people to watch, and the news that they had returned home in rich clothes spread throughout the entire Surabaya Pavilion.
After Liu Ji heard the cause and effect in his antique shop, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
The broken hatchet was sold to Yihuo for only 20,000 yuan. But I didn't expect... This kid actually made a fortune in Xianyang City with this broken hatchet?
Liu Ji didn't eat for a whole day.
Fan Kuai found Liu Ji and said to him: "Brother, it seems that the people in Xianyang City are more stupid now. Otherwise, we will open this store in Xianyang City?"
Liu Ji nodded slowly: "It makes sense. But... the money we got from Xiang Liang last time has not been completely wiped out. Let's not be anxious and take our time."
Fan Kuai responded, then sighed and said: "All the things in our store are fake. Some people who don't know what they are buying bought them because they were suspicious. There have been some rumors recently, saying that we are all fakes. , what should we do?"
Fan Kuai asked what to do, but took out a piece of paper from his body and said: "I have found out the names and addresses of those people and asked them to write them down. Although I don't know the words, I just need to find someone A literate man will lead the way, bring a few brothers with him, teach them a lesson, and make sure they shut up."
Liu Ji took out the piece of paper, looked at it twice, and then said, "I don't know how to read, why did you give me this?"
He thought for a while and said to Fan Kuai: "There is no need to teach people a lesson. Now we are not bad people. We are rich. Rich people must be gentle and polite. They can no longer be as full of swear words as in the past. , fighting with fists and kicks at every turn."
Fan Kuai responded, and then asked: "Then let's just let them go?"
Liu Ji said with a smile: "Didn't that Yihuo make a fortune from our sword? You pick a few smart people to spread this news everywhere. It's best to let people in the surrounding counties know that our store Inside, there are genuine goods, and they are genuine goods recognized by the people of Xianyang.”
"Think about it, after hearing this, will those people buy one or two treasures back?"
Fan Kuai's eyes lit up: "So, our next business will probably be better?"
Liu Ji nodded.
Fan Kuai said distressedly: "However, what if those fools take the utensils in our store and go to Xianyang City to sell them, and someone sees them?"
Liu Ji said: "First, the people of Xianyang are as stupid as pigs. They can recognize a broken hatchet as a sword. How could they tell? Second, if someone sees it, what does it have to do with us? We just need not to admit that we have ever met." Just give him those things."
Fan Kuai nodded repeatedly: "Brother, you made such a smart decision."
Fan Kuai left in a hurry.
Liu Ji sat blankly in the room, suddenly falling into deep doubt: Are the people in Xianyang City really so stupid? This doesn't seem to make sense.
But...why did they mistake my hatchet for a sword?
The broken one was collected from outside and has been used for chopping firewood. But...could this hatchet have once been made of a sword?
Could it be that... it is really a sword, but it was accidentally covered in dust, so I didn't recognize it?
Liu Ji's heart was full of mixed emotions and he no longer knew what to do.
…………
After Yi Huo returned home, everyone who was close to him or even just acquainted him came to visit him one after another.
After these people entered Yihuo Mansion, they were all attracted by the hundreds of cars.
The car is full of things. What are they?
Is it gold and silver? Or food? No matter what it is, today's gains are no longer the gains of the past.
These people are very flattering to Yi Huo, and every word is flattering.
Yi Huo heard the beautiful words in his heart and thought: I have only been away from home for a little more than a month. I didn't expect that my hometown has changed so much and everyone has become so kind.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, someone finally couldn't help but ask: "Brother You, what's in your car?"
Yihuo smiled slightly and thought: Finally someone asked the real question.
He stood up and said, "Everyone, please come with me."
The guests all stood up excitedly and followed Yi Huo to the yard, wanting to see what the answer was.
Yihuo lifted the straw covering the car, revealing the contents inside.
It is a wooden box. The box is nailed very firmly and is airtight.
These guests looked at each other, and someone suddenly said in confusion: "This box looks a bit like a coffin."
Yihuo: "..."
What the hell, can you speak?
The man also knew that he had made a mistake, so he laughed dryly and said, "Get promoted and make a fortune, haha."
The recently ordered person opened the lid of the box and revealed the contents inside.
Everyone looked inside and found that the box contained something that looked a bit like dirt.
The soil is generally white, but because it contains a lot of impurities, it is a little yellowish.
Some people asked: "Could it be salt?"
Yihuo smiled and shook his head.
Someone else said: "Could it be silver sand?"
Yihuo still shook his head.
Someone else said: "Could it be flour?"
Yi Huo said: "How fine is flour? Mine is not flour."
Everyone couldn't guess it, and they all begged Yi Huo: "Brother Yi, why don't you tell me clearly."
Yihuo smiled and said, "It's chemical fertilizer."
Everyone was slightly stunned: "What kind of fat?"
Yihuo took out a few newspapers, handed them to them and said, "This is chemical fertilizer, a new type of fertilizer."
These people glanced at the newspaper, and their attention was all attracted by the photos.
Most people are thinking: "Why are the paintings above so detailed? Is this the legendary camera?"
There are still some people who are thinking: "The few words on it say that there are banished immortals in it? I wonder which one is the famous banished immortal."
As for the introduction of chemical fertilizers in newspapers, they didn't pay much attention.
Someone finally came back to his senses from the newspaper and looked at Yi Huo curiously: "Brother Yi, what did you just say? Did you say these are fertilizers?"
Yi Huo nodded: "Not bad."
Suddenly several people covered their noses and ran away.
Fertilizer... isn't that just feces? The feces that were recently transported back were fresh, not black, but actually white.
Yi Huo said seriously: "This is a new type of fertilizer that has just been successfully developed by Shangjun Courtyard. Once used, the yield will increase tenfold."
Everyone present was moved: "Is the increase in production so much?"
They were moved, naturally because they were surprised, but there was also some disbelief in them.
Increase production tenfold? Is this Phoenix feces? It's something that has never happened before, it's so bizarre.
Someone said: "Excuse me, brother, what kind of feces is this that can increase production tenfold?"
Yi Huo smiled slightly and looked at these people as if they were fools: Stupid, really stupid.
Since I went to Xianyang City and stayed at Shangjun Courtyard for a few days, I felt that my IQ had greatly improved and I was much smarter than these fellow villagers.
However, in order to sell goods, Yihuo will not laugh at them easily.
He smiled slightly and patiently explained: "This is not feces, but..."
Before he finished speaking, someone else said: "Isn't it feces? Could it be the ashes of some kind of sacred tree?"
Yihuo said: "This is not plant ash, but a kind of mineral, a fertilizer mineral."
Everyone looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you.
Finally, someone said: "It's gold, silver, copper and iron, that kind of mine? Digged from the ground?"
Yi Huo said: "Exactly."
The man continued: "Brother, what you mean is... someone dug out some soil from the ground and spread it into our farmland, so that our crops can be harvested ten times as much?"
Yi Huo said: "It's roughly like this, but it's not that simple. These soils are refined and mixed with soils from different places, and finally extracted into butyl fertilizer."
Yi Huo explained it patiently, but these people only had one thought in their minds: Hahaha, this idiot actually transported soil from all the way.
Today, these people came to Yihuo's home because Yihuo had made a fortune in Xianyang City, and they came specifically to pay their respects.
But at the same time, they were also very sad.
In the past, like Yi Huo, they were wealthy people from a small place, but now Yi Huo has become rich overnight. It's really upsetting.
Unexpectedly, they soon discovered that it was true that they had suddenly become rich, but they also lost all their money to buy soil.
Hahaha, is there anything more satisfying than this?
The minds of these people were instantly balanced, and then they looked at Yi Hua with a smile.
Someone said quietly: "Yi Huo, there are many liars in Xianyang City, so you have to be careful."
Someone else said: "Yi Huo, this fertilizer matter is not that simple."
Someone else said: "In the past, I also had two fields. The fertile field produced abundant products, while the poor field produced twice the result with half the effort."
"I also had a sudden idea to dig out the soil from the fertile fields and spread it into the poor fields. Guess what happened? The harvest of both fields failed the next year."
When Yi Huo heard this, he murmured in his heart: Why do these people seem to disagree with my fertilizer?
Yihuo seriously educated his friends and wanted to sell fertilizer to them, but no one bought it.
Everyone regards Yi Huo as a fool who buys his soil. If he buys his soil, wouldn't he be even stupider than a fool?
In the end, these people all left with smiles on their faces. Only Yihuo's family was left, looking at him in silence.
Yi Huo said innocently: "These are really divine objects. If you don't believe me, ask this Brother Tian."
Frog has no surname and comes from a humble background. He only has a nickname, Chicken.
Later, by chance, Frog entered Shangjun's Villa. By chance, he became Tian Weng's apprentice.
He has been following Tian Weng and Xiangli Zhu to help them.
Frog is one of the first batch of craftsmen of the Fertilizer Research Institute.
Because he was Tian Weng's apprentice, he took the surname Tian after Tian Weng.
Whenever it was quiet at night, Frog was very grateful to Tian Weng and Xiangli Zhu, who helped him become a respected person.
Of course, Frog is also very grateful to the banished immortal.
If it weren't for the banishment of immortals, Tian Weng would change his surname to Tian. I'm afraid I will be called a dung chicken.
This time, Frog followed Yi Huo to Pei County and was sent as a staff member.
He is responsible for explaining the usage of chemical fertilizer to people who buy it, and analyzing the soil samples here. Only those who are suitable for using B-N fertilizer will let Yihuo sell the fertilizer to them.
Hearing Yi Huo mentioning himself, Frog smiled slightly and said to Yi Huo's family: "Brother Yi Huo is right. This is indeed a sacred object. As long as it is used in accordance with the law, it will definitely bring a good harvest."
Yihuo's son Yibi hesitated and said: "Even if it is true, how can I use so much of my family's farmland? It seems that the rich households in the county have no intention of buying it."
Yi Huo rubbed his hands and said with some embarrassment: "I will visit them again in the next few days. With many years of friendship, I should be able to convince them."
"Besides, after buying fertilizer, I still have some money left over, so I can use it all to buy farmland."
"If we really can't sell it here, we have to go to neighboring counties."
Yihuo's family members all nodded, with sad faces on their faces.
Yi Huo felt a little depressed in his heart: "How could this happen? I thought that when I brought the fertilizer back, it would be sold out."
…………
The sales of Yihui's fertilizers were not going well, and the sales of Yongchi's fertilizers were not very good either.
Yihuo took the high-end route, and Yongchi took the low-end route. His customers are mainly small farmers with a few acres of thin farmland.
These small farmers are very poor, so they dare not let go of their little money.
Yong Chi repeatedly told them that Master Fu Yao had promised that if chemical fertilizers caused a bad harvest, they would be compensated.
These small farmers had just loosened their minds when they suddenly heard that none of the big households in the county had bought chemical fertilizers.
As a result, they don't buy it either.
Those smart people don't buy it, which means there must be something wrong with this fertilizer. You can't be fooled yourself.
As for compensation... after all, it's not as real as holding real money in your hands.
Of course, the most important thing is that none of the rich households in the county bought it. They are all smart people and must have seen the problem.
If you are a fool, then just follow what smart people do and you should be fine.
As a result, Yi Huo and Yong Chi became fellow travelers again, both looking sad.
