Chapter 118 The Holy Hand Scholar(1/2)
There were more than a dozen sailors and more than twenty guards, and they were blindfolded and tied up their hands.
They didn't dare to move, and they squatted on the centipede boat one by one, for fear that the boat would capsize.
The thieves laughed happily and said, "One moves and the other moves will die."
People are the slaughter and I am the slaughter. Who dares to move around in this situation?
After more than an hour, everyone realized that the thieves had left long ago and a fishing boat passing by rescued them.
Manager Hu was crying so hard that he cried.
"Why do you explain to the head of the family when you go back? I'm not alive anymore." I wanted to find a knife to wipe my neck, but then I found that even the short sword for pedicure was gone and was confiscated by the thief.
One hundred thousand kilograms of salt, and the ship cargo was gone.
All of them were confiscated by Yunli King Kong.
Manager Hu wanted to dive, so he let the guards hold him tightly.
"Shopkeeper, what should we do if you jumped? You have to report to the head of the family when you go back."
The guards thought clearly that with Manager Hu, they would not be punished too much, so everyone looked at Manager Hu carefully to avoid his lack of contempt.
There was no way, so he returned to Dongping with a sad face. Li Dan had solved the problem of borrowing salt.
Manager Hu has a high status, but today is different. He came in crying and knelt on the ground.
"Our salt was robbed."
After hearing this, Li Dan collapsed on the ground. Salt was worthless. Wholesale from the salt farm was only one cent per pound, and the government taxes and fees were one pound and five cents per pound. The rest was profit, and the money accumulated in my hometown would never be spent in eight lifetimes. However, the supply of salt was not enough, which would cause dissatisfaction from Chen Fuyin.
The crisis in Dongpingfu Salt continues to spread, and the franchise salt stores have been adjusted from one kilogram to half a kilogram limit.
In fact, people have salt at home, and the more purchase restrictions, the more panic it becomes.
After a few days, all the pickles from the Chao family were sold out.
"We want pickles, we want pickles."
"The pickles are gone, really are gone." The guy was anxious and sweating.
At this time, more than a dozen mule carts arrived, and the escorts of the escort were holding hands to prevent people from coming.
The guy shouted: "Don't worry, although there are pickles, I got more than a dozen carts of soy sauce, very, very salty soy sauce. Those who want soy sauce go home and get a jar."
Sister Chao Gai has some research on brewing soy sauce, but she is not a master. Lao Baitou has a lot of research on brewing soy sauce, using soybeans, black beans, wheat bran and rice bran as raw materials. Since the first month of the year, thousands of tanks have been brewed. Due to the short brewing time and the taste is average, but the salt is added, which is extremely salty, and it is completely concentrated salt water.
Six cents per kilogram, and it will be sold directly.
All were cleared in less than three days.
The Li family's salt is like an ant on a hot pan, while Chao Gai is light and he is strolling in the garden.
He brought Liu Tang and Dazhuang more than ten people to the Jeju branch.
Chao Gai was worried that Guo Shengzhen would not be able to stay in the situation, so he came to cheer him up.
There were two good helpers behind Liu Tang, one was Cheng Dafu and the other was Li Heizi. These two men were once Tang Laoer and were injured by Chao Gai. Tang Laoer abandoned him and Chao Gai arranged for someone to treat him. He was convinced and wanted to go with Chao Gai.
Chao Gai arranged to be Liu Tang's subordinate.
The Jeju semicolon is still very beautiful, not only clean and tidy, but also has a large business volume, and it is very lively.
When Guo Sheng saw Chao Gai coming, he hurried over to greet him.
"elder brother."
"Well, Brother Guo Sheng has done a good job. Arrange the shopkeeper and be careful when accepting orders recently."
"Don't worry, brother, I have received orders from regular customers recently. The orders that seem to be in trouble are not covered. All the guards cancel their vacations and go out. They train and rest in the yard every day."
"Well, don't be careless, our opponent is very strong this time."
Chao Gai arranged for someone to settle down in the semicolon and came to the cafeteria to check the food.
It happened to be lunch, and there was a table for every ten people. The lunch was quite rich, with stewed with radish, stewed with tofu, vegetables, and sorghum rice.
Seeing that Chao Gai was coming, the guards saluted Chao Gai one after another.
Chao Gai asked everyone to sit down and continue eating.
The fishing ban period has arrived, and the fishing prices have risen, so they rarely eat fish, but wild boars are too harmful to crops, and wild boars are often sent from Chaojiazhuang.
After dinner, Chao Gai only brought Liu Tang into the city. He asked someone to inquire about it and found a calligraphy and painting shop along the way. This calligraphy and painting shop was amazing. There was a plaque hanging with four big characters written on it. It was a holy scholar.
Chao Gai and Liu Tang went in. The shop was not big, there was only a room, and a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old was there, and the room was full of words.
Liu Tang widened his eyes and watched.
Pointing to a deck of words: "Brother, this is pretty good. Friend of women."
"Yeah, the Shengjian Center next to it is also good, one is hung in an inn and the other is hung in a bun shop."
The young man who was looking at the store forced himself to laugh and came over and asked, "Do you want to buy calligraphy and paintings?"
"If you want to buy, what are the prices of these two?"
"One hundred and fifty-money per picture, both of them will be counted for you at 280."
Liu Tangfu Yiguan, and the guy took it off.
Chao Gai asked again: "Isn't Boss Xiao in this store here?"
"The boss is back home, and he should be here tomorrow."
Chao Gai paid the money and left a famous post.
"Tell me something about Boss Xiao, just say that Chao Gai from Chaojiazhuang has something to do with him."
"Yes, the boss is here tomorrow, and the villain must tell the boss."
The guy carefully accepted the post.
If you want to talk about where Xiao Rang went, he went back to his hometown in the countryside to see his wife and children.
Xiao Rang is a scholar, a talented scholar, and his calligraphy is known as the best. At the same time, he also has talent. Unfortunately, the world is so good that he only got a scholar and never got better. He got married at the age of 25, and he is in his thirties this year. He is convinced. He can open a calligraphy and painting shop to help people write calligraphy and painting to earn some money.
At Xiao Rang's house, it was just dawn in the morning.
Xiao Rang looked at his wife who was sleeping beside her. Although she was in her thirties, she became more and more beautiful.
"My wife, I'm back."
The lady curled her mouth: "If you want me to tell me, you shouldn't have come back. You have traveled for more than a hundred miles, just for that little time."
Xiao Rang was angry: "You old lady, don't be so shit."
"Haha, that's right, family scandals should not be made public."
"snort."
Xiao Rang got up and packed his bags, rode a mule to the store.
"Hey, life is rare in seventy years. I have been in my thirty for half of my life, and I have achieved nothing, so I can make a living by selling my words."
When I returned to the store, the guy gave the account and sold it for a long time.
"Business has been good these two days, and I've done a good job."
"Two people came yesterday afternoon, one said that they were at home as a friend of women, and the other said that they were in the heart of the sauna. They paid a consistent amount of money."
Xiao Rangting was angry: "You guy, the price is 150 cents, why do you sell it so high?"
"No, they insisted on giving it to you. They also left behind famous posts."
The guy handed over Chao Gai's name post. Xiao Rang saw that it was very low-key, Chao Baozheng, Yuncheng.
When it comes to Jeju Prefecture, you may not know who the prefect is, but you must know who Chao Baozheng is.
Help the poor and the needy, be loyal and generous.
"What is he here to do?"
Xiao Rang was very puzzled and had no interaction with Chao Gai.
At this time, a guest came and shouted, "Have you decided to write and paint?"
"Okay, okay, I'll install it as you like."
This is Xiao Rang's painting for someone, and Xiao Rang went to install it.
Xiao Rang was leaving, Chao Gai and Liu Tang arrived again.
"Have Boss Xiao been back?"
The guy stood up and bowed: "I went back to Baozheng, and the boss just went out to install calligraphy and paintings for people."
"Oh, how long will it take to come back?"
"This villain is not very clear, it will take an estimated time."
Chao Gai and Liu Tang waited for a while, but they also went back when they saw that Xiao Rang had not come back.
It was a coincidence that as soon as Chao Gai left, Xiao Rang came back.
