Zhaocai and Qiu'e sold all the more than 400 preserved eggs they picked up in the city at once, making back more than eight dollars in one go. The money in the basket was not light, but the two of them had a lot of money. I have never seen so much money in my generation. If I had had so much money back then, I would have bought two acres of good paddy fields in Fengshan, built a house, and lived a good life.
I really didn’t dare to dream that I could make so much money one day. I didn’t care about the cold wind on the August night. I put my clothes on the money in the bamboo basket. The couple walked like a breeze, wishing they could shrink. Di Chengchun immediately rushed back to Liangjiazhuang to report the good news to Liang Chuan!
The basket of stinky duck eggs that I picked when I came here was actually replaced by a basket full of copper coins when I returned home. Qiu Ba, who was guarding the city, couldn't believe his eyes and looked at the two extremely honest people with suspicion. The honest couple were full of doubts in their hearts. This stinky guy was so easy to sell, but he still paid so much money?
Qiu Ba dutifully picked through the basket and confirmed that there were no other prohibited items. The only thing was money!
"Really sold out?"
"I don't dare to deceive the military master. If there are fresh eggs tomorrow, I will save some for the military master!"
After hearing this, Qiu Ba really got a little curious. What kind of eggs are so easy to sell and so popular?
The two returned to Liang's Village happily. Liang Chuan happened to be in the village, so they handed all the money they earned to Liang Chuan. When they saw Liang Chuan smiling at each other, they knelt down to Liang Chuan in a tacit understanding and said, "My boss, I got a good start today, and all the money I earned will be returned to you. You have been kind to our couple, and you gave us a way to live. No matter what, we must accept our worship!"
"I can't help it, what are you doing?" Liang Chuan hurriedly helped the two of them up one after another, and comforted: "It's all thanks to your own hard work that you can get such a rich reward. Don't be in a hurry to pay me back." Money, you have to use eggs to lay eggs, and it won’t be too late to return the capital to me when you have fully earned it back!”
The two of them thought that Liang Chuan would care about lending them the capital, but Liang Chuan's indifference moved them even more. Yes, what they lack most now is funds. Now Liang Chuan has given them a golden road, which helps them to move forward. How not to impress them.
"Do it well. This recipe should be enough for you to make some money in a few generations, but I guess it won't be worth it in the future."
“The money we make now is enough to last us a long time!”
The two couples were extremely grateful to Liang Chuan. Liang Chuan's vision had long since broken away from the small business of making small amounts of money. Those who caught his eye were either making money every day or getting rich overnight. Making money from such manual work was really not exciting. .
Instead of keeping it on hand, it is better to let Zhaocai and the others carry it forward. Anyway, someone will accidentally come up with this thing in the near future.
"We have to think carefully about what we are going to do in the future. This recipe must not be leaked. Right now, there are only two of us, and we can't make many eggs in a day. How can we make more money!"
He has become obsessed with attracting wealth and wanting to make money. The magic power of money is huge. He has never been so proud in his life. Now that he has a way to make money, he is focused on making money.
Qiu'e was not as radical as him and advised: "After all, this is not our territory. It's only the first day. Make some money and you'll be rewarded. My boss doesn't look down on this small business at all. You have to be down-to-earth. Even in this way, we can make a lot of money, so we can’t be too anxious!”
Zhaocai has been suppressed by his fat ex-wife all his life, and he has never been proud of it until today. Now is the time to show his family status. Qiu'e was nagging in his ear, which reminded him of the tragic years back then!
"You bitches, what do you know? It's called the time of day. You have to strike while the iron is hot. People in Bianjing are stupid and have a lot of money. They have never eaten the eggs of this magical bird. They are still hot even though they are fresh. If you don't sell more now, you can sell them later." Go to hell?"
Qiu'e knew that this person would not be able to listen to anything she said to Zhaocai at this time, so she could only follow the idea of attracting wealth.
"We have to work separately. In the morning, you go to the countryside to collect duck eggs, and I pick up the eggs of the sacred bird to sell in the city. I go back and forth, and I can sell them one more time in the afternoon. When we come back in the evening, we pickle the eggs together. This way As for no new divine bird eggs being sold in two months!”
The idea of attracting wealth is quite far-reaching, and there is a bit of foresight.
When Qiu'e heard that it made sense, she stopped talking to him.
But it sounds easy in words, but in practice it is not the same thing. The next day, Zhaocai and Qiu'e went their separate ways as agreed, one buying eggs and the other picking eggs to go to the city to sell. The reason why the sales went so smoothly yesterday was completely inseparable from Qiu'e's shouting. Before he started shouting to attract wealth, he was stopped by Qiu Ba, who was guarding the city, as soon as he entered the city gate.
This Qiu Ba is not yesterday’s Qiu Ba!
When the officers and soldiers saw Zhaocai carrying two baskets full of stuff, they stopped drinking Zhaocai on the spot.
"What's in the load?"
This Qiu Eight Evil God has a hint of violence and greed in his evil temperament. When he sees Zhaocai's rustic dress, he knows that he is a stupid sheep that can be slaughtered.
To attract wealth, I also thought about giving a few sacred bird eggs to pass the test, but I didn't expect that this person was different, and I was a little stuttered for a while and couldn't answer.
"I'm asking you a question. Are you fucking mute? Are you guilty of being a thief?" A group of Qiu Bayi, who were like wolves and tigers, surrounded them in a tacit understanding. They were even more afraid of attracting wealth and had no idea. How to get it right.
Qiu Ba lifted the basket and poked the eggs in the basket with the handle of the gun in his hand. Unexpectedly, the eggs did not leak out the yolk and egg white, but turned out to be unknown unknown black eggs!
"Sir, there's something wrong with this egg!"
As soon as the soldier called out, everyone gathered around and saw that they were indeed strange black eggs that no one had ever seen before!
Qiu Bayi, the city guard, was furious when he saw it: "Come here quickly, where did you get these eggs! Where did you get them from? What are you going to do when you enter the city?"
Zhaocai was so frightened that he replied without thinking: "These are the eggs of the sacred bird..."
Qiu Ba raised the handle of the knife and stabbed Zhaocai in the stomach hard: "God, your mother's balls! Do you think I'm a donkey?"
Zhaocai instantly arched his head in pain and fell to the ground to whip the animal. Qiu Bada shouted: "Send him to the inspection department's Yamen!"
Poor Zhaocai was very ambitious when he went out. Before he could sell an egg, he was arrested by the officers and soldiers guarding the city. These soldiers were not unreasonable and good-tempered, and they would probably be beaten severely when the time came. .
Fortunately among misfortunes, the Inspection Department of the Capital City was the territory of high-ranking cadres.
This place usually doesn't have many 'guests', and those who can be invited here to drink tea basically don't have good fruits to eat, but the Pan Dao Noodles can fill you up.
No one in the entire inspection department knew about this magical bird egg. The only exception was the senior official. This magical bird egg originated from Xinghua. He had seen it in Xinghua and Qingyuan, and the Gaochun couple at home also gave it to him. He had sent a lot of magical bird eggs. At first, he was curious about what kind of eggs they were. Later, he ate too many and got used to them. Who cares about what kind of eggs these are? They are definitely not valuable things.
Gao Gan looked at Lucky for a long time and asked: "I won't ask you where this egg came from. They don't understand. I have seen it before. Even if I bought the smashed egg, I will also give you the other eggs." Now that you’ve rounded it up, tell me how much you’d sell an egg for!”
Zhaocai murmured: "Twenty cents per egg!"
The high-ranking cadre has a lot of money in his pocket, but he can't bear to waste it like this. What a piece of shit costs twenty cents, which is more expensive than the pork and mutton on the street!
"Where the hell did you come from? Your Xinghua accent is so strong!"
When Zhaocai heard this, he shut his mouth tightly and didn't dare to say anything more. The senior official didn't think much about it, and it was impossible for him to think that even this street egg vendor had something to do with Liang Chuan.
It was a blessing in disguise, and I wanted to sell my eggs on the street to attract wealth, but unexpectedly I got beaten and my eggs were sold faster than anyone else!
He took the money from the senior official and returned to Liangjiazhuang without looking back.
As soon as Gao Gan got so many magical bird eggs, he began to think about how to use such eggs to make a fuss. In recent years, high-ranking cadres have enjoyed themselves in the officialdom like a duck to water. On the one hand, they have piles of money in their hands and they can't stop squandering it. On the other hand, they spend lavishly and like to ask for help. Whenever fresh fruits and vegetables are in season, he himself will have a share, and his superiors and key officials in the city who are close to him will definitely have a share.
He himself would not be stingy with the lotus roots, peaches and plums in August, or the delicacies sent from the two provinces and Guangdong. He would generously offer filial piety to the people on the road, and he would never be stingy with anything that could be settled with money.
The same goes for these eggs, of course. Although these eggs only cost twenty cents each, and nine oxen are not worth a dime in his opinion, the price is that the eggs are fresh, and they are sold in Qingyuan, and the quantity is not too high every time when they are sent to me from my hometown. More, this time I got two baskets at once, and if each adult’s family had twenty or thirty pieces, they would be able to share a lot!
He first sent a basket to Cheng Lin, the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, followed by several military bosses from the West Prefecture, Yang Chongxun and others, and then sent some to officials from the six ministries below Xia Song, except Jia Chaochang.
To put it bluntly, it's not that Jia Chaochang was missed by the senior officials, but that the stewards of the Jia Mansion were too visionary and looked down on the nonsense inspection of the capital by the senior officials. Besides, what kind of gift was the gift from the senior officials? Now, even though he, Jia Xianggong is not well received by the officials in the court, and the trend of the court is also unfavorable to him, Xianggong Jia. But Jia Chaochang has not yet stepped down. He is still a serious official of the court, so he only gives these stinky duck eggs as gifts? Are you looking down on him, Mr. Jia?
When a person is successful, the icing on the cake may not feel at all, and the pattern will be infinitely magnified. However, when he is unsuccessful, he will be particularly concerned about the eyes of others and whether others look down on him. Jia Chaochang faced Xia Song who was pressing every step of the way. There are also former party officials who have gradually become alienated, and now there is a sense of loneliness and desolation.
Bianjing is such a small city, and soon everyone in Bianjing will know about it. High-ranking officials unknowingly helped promote the Lucky Bird's Bird Egg. Suddenly, almost everyone in Bianjing knew about it. The dark eggs are not duck eggs but have more flavor than duck eggs.
Moreover, this kind of egg is now a symbol of power and status. Look at who eats it. They are either high-ranking officials or nobles. There is no place for ordinary people to buy it!
Because his servants refused, Jia Chaochang was the only one who had never tasted the taste of this magical bird egg. It was not that he was curious about the immortality after eating it, nor was he greedy for that one bite. It was really because the high-ranking guy didn't give it to him. Keep this truth in mind! What he lacks is respect! This guy sent everyone in Bianjing away, and he was the only one left. It’s not that he looked down on himself!
