Chapter 163 Substitute 8

I can’t sell salt, so I can only think of other ways to make money.

Fortunately, there are many ways to make money in modern times, and some of them were also applicable in ancient times.

Liu Hiiragi did not start with food.

This aspect was taken over by Tan Shiyu.

She made the cream cake, and Tan Shiyu also made the hot pot and ice cream.

Only due to restrictions on raw materials, cream cakes and ice cream are both limited to purchase.

There is no purchase limit for hot pot, but in ancient times there were no chili peppers, only dogwood for seasoning. The spiciness was not authentic enough, so much of the original flavor of hot pot was missing.

Although the hot pot business is still good, it is far less popular than cream cakes and ice cream.

If you don’t start with food, where should you start?

Real estate

Don’t be kidding.

In ancient times, most of the land was in the hands of the powerful, so it is strange that real estate can be obtained.

Making clocks

Forget it, the craftsmanship of that thing is so complicated that if a craftsman makes it, he may not be able to make one in several months.

What to do?

Liu Heng scratched his head and finally came up with an idea.

Selling bars.

Of course it’s not about selling grain and wine.

The food now is not enough for people to eat, so where can we use it to make wine?

Fortunately, there are also many wild fruit trees in the mountains.

These wild fruits have not been domesticated by humans, and most of them are sour and difficult to eat.

This kind of fruit is not suitable for eating, but it is suitable for making wine.

Liu Tong then gathered the women and children in the village, asked the children to pick fruits, and took the women to make fruit wine.

After the fruit wine is brewed, it is sent to the main city of Yizhou for sale.

Just one day after the sale, the steward of the Jiedushi Mansion came to the door. Under coercion, the fruit wine was moved away for less than one-third of the selling price.

Zhang Ruonan's eyes flashed after hearing this, and he told his subordinates, "From now on, we will continue to give fruit wine to Jiedushifu at this price."

Zhang Ruonan approached Liu Heng and asked him to Think of ways to make money again.

Liu Heng was by the mountain stream at this time, instructing the carpenters to install the waterwheel.

The most troublesome aspect of reclaiming terraced fields is watering.

Carrying water from mountain streams is time-consuming and laborious. Now that there are few manpower, making a waterwheel is the best solution.

Liu Hiiragi has a background in science and engineering. Although he does not know what the ancient waterwheel is like, he can study it with his own science knowledge.

When Zhang Ruonan arrived, the water tanker was installed and the crowd cheered.

Zhang Ruonan also had a smile on his face.

Looking at the water pouring out of the water tube, Zhang Ruonan happily said to Liu Hiiragi, "This way, some manpower can be saved to do other things."

Liu Hiiragi" Didn’t the village take in some more refugees?"

Zhang Ruonan"There are too many things to be done, and no matter how many people we bring, it won't be enough."

Liu Heng "It's better to go to other state capitals to recruit people."

Zhang Ruonan "has already sent People have gone, but the results are not great. People nowadays are unwilling to leave their hometowns. As long as they can live a little, no one will leave their hometown."

Liu Hiiragi "There are still many refugees."

Zhang Ruonan "There are quite a few. But very few of the refugees can be found alive by our people. Many refugees will not live long."

Liu Heng was silent after hearing this. .

The way of this world

Liu Heng, "I can save some."

Zhang Ruonan responded dully, and said to Liu Heng, "People from the cottage If you have more, you will consume more."

Liu Hao instantly understood what Zhang Ruonan meant by looking for him.

Liu Heng scratched his head, "Didn't he just create a channel for brewing and selling wine?"

Zhang Ruonan sneered, "Those wines were taken aback by the people from the Jiedushi Mansion. We bought them all for one-third of the price."

Liu Heng: "This is an open robbery."

Zhang Ruonan: "Don't worry, they will spit it out sooner or later if they take advantage of us. ”

Liu Heng scratched his head and sighed, “Okay, I’ll think of a way.”

Three days later, Liu Heng called a group of carpenters over with the drawings he drew. Build what’s on the drawing board.

Zhang Ruonan didn’t care about what Liu Heng wanted to create.

She will naturally know when the finished product comes out.

She is extremely busy now, and the affairs of the entire village are on her shoulders.

You are talking about the lord Zhao Yinze

He went out to help Zhang Ruonan find help.

Zhang Ruonan complained to Zhao Yinze that there were too many things to handle by himself.

Zhao Yinze giggled.

Anyway, he doesn’t want to do these chores.

Zhao Yinze said that he would help Zhang Ruonan find a helper.

Coincidentally, he knew someone who was quite capable in handling internal affairs.

He can go find that person.

Zhang Ruonan looked sideways at Zhao Yinze.

This guy is probably out of his mind because he has been free recently and wants to go out for a walk.

Zhao Yinze continued to hey.

Zhang Ruonan waved his right hand and approved Zhao Yinze's application for going out.

But she gave Zhao Yinze a list and asked Zhao Yinze to "invite" those people on the list back.

The people on this list are knowledgeable people that Zhang Ruonan knows, and they have all visited or studied at Zhangjia Academy.

However, because of the differences between men and women, they have never met Zhang Ruonan.

Zhang Ruonan had seen these people hiding behind the screen.

Zhang Ruonan would hide behind the screen and listen to the opinions of those who came to visit Zhang's father.

She turned around and forgot about some people's boastful remarks.

The truly knowledgeable people are remembered by Zhang Ruonan.

Zhang Ruonan wants these people to help him.

She is not afraid of those people seeing through her true identity.

These people only know that the Zhang family has a daughter, but they don’t know the name of the Zhang family’s daughter.

She can then say that she is Father Zhang’s nephew.

As long as those people still remember Father Zhang’s teachings, they should be able to stay and help her.

She won’t force those who don’t care about Father Zhang’s guidance.

But those people should not leave the village easily.

Neither she nor Zhao Yinze would let these people leave and leak the secrets of the cottage.

Zhang Ruonan raised the corners of his lips slightly.

I just hope those people can see the situation clearly.

Half a month later, Liu Hao sent someone to find Zhang Ruonan and said that the finished product he wanted was ready.

Zhang Ruonan hurried over.

Seeing the finished product, Zhang Ruonan immediately understood its use.

After all, she is a woman.

Although she is a young lady from a scholarly family, she has also been exposed to spinning and weaving.

Zhang Ruonan "This is a loom"

Liu Hiiragi "A textile machine can both spin thread and weave cloth, and is more efficient than current spinning machines and looms. The efficiency is more than ten times higher."

Zhang Ruonan's eyes lit up, "It's really that efficient."

Liu Hei: "I have lied to you before."

Zhang Ruonan said happily, "Great, now everyone in the cottage has no shortage of fabrics to make clothes."

Liu Hao whispered, "It's a pity that there is no cotton."

Zhang Ruonan asked " "What did you say?"

Liu Hiiragi "It's nothing."

He decided that when he had more people, he must send people to India to look for cotton.

Zhang Ruonan gathered the women and began to weave cloth.

The cloth was transported to the foot of the mountain and exchanged for money.

It doesn’t make as much money as perfume, but it is a steady stream of business. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website without anti-theft, free to find books and add books, you can join the qq group 952868558
