"Then let's buy more vegetables while it's cheap now!"
"It can't be saved! It's such a hot day now. It will rot after a few days after buying it. It's a waste of money!" Li Hanrui said this with a look of helplessness and heartache!
When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he slowly smiled.
"I mean, second brother, even so, if brother has a way to allow the soldiers to eat vegetables in winter, do you think the court will cut off the money?" Li Hanrui couldn't help but feel excited when he heard this.
"Brother, I'll tell you the truth! Every year, the imperial court receives this military salary, but it's just arranged by my father to buy some radishes, celery, etc., and then develop them into pickles and send them to the frontiers. Moreover, the price of vegetables in winter is five times as high as now. Not only that, there are nearly 200,000 soldiers on the front line, which is also a lot of military pay!" When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he was like, holy shit!
Isn’t this business coming? Zhao Xuanyi did not speak, but came to a farmer selling vegetables.
"Uncle, let me ask, how did you buy this cabbage?" Looking at the man in front of him wearing fine silk, the farmer hurriedly replied
"This cabbage costs three cents a piece. If you buy more, it can be cheaper!" the uncle said with a smile.
"Let's put it this way, if I want as much cabbage and radish as you have, how much is your cheapest?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"What? You want it? My family has many acres of land. I don't say there are thousands of cabbages and radishes, but there are hundreds! If you want them all, I can sell them to you for a copper plate!" the farmer said with a smile. .
Zhao Xuanyi slapped his thigh
"Okay, you sell it first. When I need it, I'll ask you to give it to me. You're busy!" Zhao Xuanyi carefully calculated that a cabbage and a radish only cost one copper coin. It's too cheap. He turned to look at Li Hanrui.
"Second brother, how much does it cost to buy a radish in winter?"
"At least eight copper coins are needed!" Li Hanrui said. Hearing this sentence, Zhao Xuanyi's eyes instantly let out little stars. Oh my god, this change of hands is eight times. If he doesn't sell by quantity, but by kilograms, my god!
It’s like money falling from the sky! Zhao Xuanyi was very excited at the moment! When Li Hanrui saw Zhao Xuanyi so excited, he knew that this guy had something in mind again.
"Brother-in-law, please tell me, do you have any good ideas?" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Li Hanrui and smiled.
"Second brother, I'm really sorry. I can't tell you that this is my way to make a fortune! I'm sorry!" Zhao Xuanyi left after saying that.
"Hey, hey? I mean brother-in-law? Don't you leave?" Li Hanrui hurriedly chased after him! Zhao Xuanyi calculated as he walked. One tael of silver can be exchanged for a thousand copper plates. I should still have more than 2,000 taels of silver in my hand. After calculation, if I can achieve ten times the profit, it will be 20,000 taels in one change of hands!
And I don’t know how to sell it so cheaply. What if I add something else? The more Zhao Xuanyi thought about it, the happier he became and couldn't help but laugh!
And Li Hanrui was following behind. No matter how he asked, Zhao Xuanyi didn't say anything. Zhao Xuanyi grabbed Li Hanyan who was shopping.
"Daughter-in-law, when are we going home?" This sentence made everyone freeze with fright, and Li Hanyan couldn't help but frown.
"What are you talking about? You just arrived today, where are you going to?"
"No! I have now discovered a particularly profitable thing. I need to go home and discuss it with my father-in-law. I am really, really anxious!" Zhao Xuanyi said with an anxious look on his face.
"What bad ideas do you have? Tell me?" Li Hanyan asked, narrowing her eyes.
"What are you paying attention to? Me? How can I make money if I tell others? This is a secret way to make money, and I can also guarantee that our Li Jiajun soldiers on the border can eat fresh vegetables in the cold winter. ! No need to eat pickles every day!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"What?" Li Hanyan looked at Zhao Xuanyi in surprise. After all, when talking about the army, Li Hanyan was very interested and looked at Zhao Xuanyi with her eyes motionless.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at the farmers selling vegetables. The plan in his mind had already taken shape. If he followed his plan, it would be a hugely profitable business!
"No, tell me, what are you going to do? How can I trust you if you don't say anything?" Li Hanrui came over and asked. Although Li Hanrui didn't know what Zhao Xuanyi could do, there was nothing in this kid's head. Not empty!
Zhao Xuanyi smiled mysteriously and turned to look at the people around him.
"Let me just say something simple. I want to buy all the vegetables I can buy now, so that I can wait until the cold winter season and sell them. This way I can make money!" After the plan was revealed, everyone's faces were full of smiles. With a disappointed expression, Li Hanyan grabbed Zhao Xuanyi's collar and stared at Zhao Xuanyi.
"I thought you had any plans? Are you stupid? Where do you put them when you buy them now? How can we have such a big place to put these vegetables in our house? Even if there is room, how can you ensure that they will not rot?" Zhao Xuanyi smiled He took Li Hanyan's hand away and gave Li Hanyan a tough look.
"What if I have a way to prevent them from rotting? Cabbage, radish, green onions, celery, etc. If I can ensure that they do not rot, after half a year, we can sell them at several times the price! A sure profit I won’t accompany you!” His words frightened everyone present, and Li Hanrui thought to himself, I guessed it right, this kid really has a way!
"Ahem, brother-in-law, please briefly explain your method and let us listen!" Zhao Xuanyi turned to look at Li Hanrui
"Ahem, do you think I look like a fool?" Li Hanrui was shocked and stopped talking!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at the farmers on both sides of the road and felt very happy
"The cheapest vegetables here can be sold for one copper plate, and I estimate that there are at least three in the capital. Although the journey is a bit far, it is not a problem. If it is shipped expressly, it can take at most two days to reach the capital!"
"If you calculate it like this, a cabbage will be cheaper in the capital than in the capital. If you buy it in large quantities, it will be even cheaper! And if possible, we can still have the fare left!" Li Hanyan kept shaking her head after hearing this.
"After two days of driving, how can you have any fare left? Who will buy or sell you a job?" Zhao Xuanyi tilted his head and looked at Li Hanyan
"How about you, a young lady from a wealthy family, who doesn't like the fireworks of the world, just watch!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he came to the farmer again.
"Uncle, it's me! I want to discuss a business deal with you, is that okay?"
"Master, please tell me, you don't have to be so polite!"
"That's right, I'm from the capital. I want to buy your vegetables, not just you. Suppose I want cabbage, radish and other vegetables from the farmers near you. I will give you two cents each, but there is a condition, that is You want to send me to the capital, and we will sit on the ground to collect the food and pay you, are you willing?" Zhao Xuanyi asked with a smile.
When the uncle heard this, he immediately showed a surprised expression. Although he had heard that people in the capital were rich, it was really rare for him to buy so much at once.
"Sir, aren't you kidding me? It's a long way to go. If I give it to you and you don't want it, what will I do then?" Zhao Xuanyi thought about it and realized that this was indeed a possibility. He didn't realize that this simplicity The farmers are not stupid at all
"What if I give you money first?" When the farmer heard this, he gave you money first? That would be perfect
"Of course you can! How much you want, I, together with the families around me, can deliver it to you!"
"Okay, just rest, we'll talk about it later!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he came to Li Hanyan
"Look, isn't this what it is? It's cheaper than the capital city, and it's delivered to your door for free. Why not do such a good thing?" Li Hanyan nodded after hearing this.
"But you haven't said yet, how can you preserve vegetables until winter?"
"Winter? Hahaha!" Zhao Xuanyi looked up to the sky and laughed.
"My method is not just for winter, if nothing goes wrong, I can keep vegetables for three years!"
"Three years?" Li Hanyan asked in surprise.
"Hmph! I said at least three years. If you keep it well, five years is not a problem!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he looked at Li Hanyan
"So when are we going back?"
"This...?" Li Hanyan walked aside and glanced at Li Hanrui. As soon as the two exchanged glances, Li Hanrui immediately understood and nodded lightly.
Li Hanyan came to Zhao Xuanyi's side with a smile and gently pulled Zhao Xuanyi's arm.
"Husband, we have just arrived at Sun Qian's house. We finally came out to play. How many more days can we play?" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Li Hanyan with wide eyes. With tender eyes, he pulled his arm. Yiren's appearance, is this still Li Hanyan?
For a moment, Zhao Xuanyi found it difficult to accept
"No, wife, don't be like this. Let's go to the front and walk around again. What else do you want to eat? Just be normal!"
"Why is this person abnormal?" Li Hanyan pulled Zhao Xuanyi and asked.
"You are not normal now!" Li Hanrui took a few steps back and grabbed Liu Bo
"I want to send a message to my father Feige when I go back. I want to tell my brother-in-law that he has a way to preserve the current vegetables for a long time, at least for three years. I want my father to prepare it. If possible, the food problem for soldiers in the cold winter that has troubled me for thousands of years will be solved!"
"Yes! I'll go right away!" After Liu Bo finished speaking, he turned around and retreated, quickly disappearing into the night. Chen Xue, who was standing next to Li Hanrui, covered her mouth and smiled.
"What do you mean by this, Erlang? Do you want your father to be mentally prepared to lower the price severely and buy out all the vegetables that Young Master Zhao didn't buy and supply them to the border areas?" Li Hanrui grabbed Chen Xue's hand, his face smile on
"You won't betray me, right?" Chen Xue rolled her eyes at Li Hanrui
"You are smart, but do you think Mr. Zhao is stupid? In fact, for me, it doesn't matter whether I have money or possessions, as long as I have enough to eat every day!" Li Hanrui sighed
"My fool, if it were hundreds or thousands of taels, I wouldn't worry about it, but it can easily cost tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of taels! I have to worry about it, are you...are you angry?" Chen Xue's face was full of smiles, and there was no sign of anger, but Li Hanrui understood Chen Xue better than himself. Even with a smile, Li Hanrui could see Chen Xue's true mood.
"I just thought about it again. In order to save me from the brothel, Mr. Zhao caused so much trouble and even implicated the eldest princess. I still don't know how he led the eldest princess to reach the stars and paid five thousand to redeem me. You two haven't paid back a single coin, but now you are plotting against Mr. Zhao, Erlang, you are going too far!" Chen Xue's words left Li Hanrui speechless and feeling very uncomfortable.
"You are right! I did go too far, but these five thousand taels are enough for me to be a soldier for a lifetime. I will pay it back sooner or later, but this army cannot be compared. These are two different things!" Chen Xue smiled slightly.
"What did Sui Erlang think? I just expressed my own thoughts. I am a little woman and can't make the decision in anything!" After Chen Xue finished speaking, she followed Li Hanyan and walked forward.
