Chapter 1340 Where does the smoke from the ancestral graves drift?

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In an instant, a bunch of things related to the tea industry appeared in Zhao Hao's mind.

    He couldn¡¯t help but swallowed his saliva, it wasn¡¯t for some virgin picking tea and her breasts were just beginning to bake, it was for the beautiful sight of money!  Yeah, seriously.

    After a while, Zhao Hao broke away from his reverie and remembered that he came back not for the tea industry, but for the porcelain industry.

    So he changed the topic and smiled apologetically at Lin Zhengying: "But don't worry, old patriarch. A new tea needs to stabilize production, open up the market, and gain a firm foothold before it can be profitable. This does not take ten or eight years of gestation.  , it can¡¯t be done.¡±

    "Ah, so long?" Lin Zhengying's newly ignited enthusiasm was extinguished by Dou Tou.  He could only smile bitterly and said: "Don't be in a hurry, I'll just take it slowly while you watch."

    "But I have an immediate method that will help your tribe get rid of poverty and become rich. Would you like to hear it, old chief?" Zhao Hao changed his subject again.

    "Okay, okay, Sir, please speak." Lin Zhengying was hopeful again. He liked people who made money quickly, so they would not be fooled easily.

    ??~~

    Contrary to what most people imagine, the enclosed house is not only not stuffy, but actually quite cool.  Sitting in the sky, you can feel the wind blowing in your armpits, making you not sweat at all.

    The scientific explanation is that the enclosure of high walls and the blocking of huge eaves and walkways reduce the amount of sunlight in the enclosed house, leaving most of it in shadow.  In addition, the thick earth walls block the conduction of heat, making the inner courtyard and rooms very cool.  Moreover, the narrow door will create an alley breeze, making the nave facing the door the coolest place in the whole building.

    Mr. Zhao took advantage of the gentle breeze to express his intention.

    "I'm going to open a few kilns the kind that make porcelain. I heard that Feitianyan has high-quality porcelain clay mines, and I can buy them. I want as much as you have." Zhao Hao said, raising a finger and saying: "  How about one stone and ten cents?"

    "Wow" All the tribesmen who could understand the Mandarin language exclaimed in surprise.

    One stone is equal to two husks of dendrobium, which is the measuring instrument used by the government to collect tax grains.  Since the Lin family has not paid royal rations for many years, they naturally don't have anything like that.  But everyone still knows that one dendrobium is about the same as a rattan basket they usually carry.

    ¡°That means they can earn ten cents by carrying a load or two baskets of soil?

    That¡¯s ten cents!  I can buy four kilograms of rice for my family or enough salt for half a month!

    During the off-season, if you go to Fenghuang Town and work hard for a day, your employer will give you ten cents!  They are extremely contented.

    Can you make so much money just by picking soil now?

    "May I ask, Master, where did you pick it from?" Lin Yichen was still smart, and he was worried that it would be uneconomical to transport it from the mountains to the city.

    "It just needs to be transported to the Fenghuang River." Zhao Hao said with a smile: "I heard from Lao Gu that your Beiliao is right next to the Fenghuang River, and a dock has been built. Just send it there."

    "Wow, I'm getting rich, I'm getting rich" The mountain people cheered uncontrollably again. It was only five miles from Feitianyan to Beiliao Pier.  It wouldn't be a problem for them to make ten or eight trips a day.

    Wouldn¡¯t you like to earn a hundred cents that day?  What else to farm?  I will never farm again in this life!

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT THERE  Is it not a problem to earn five or six hundred yuan a day?

    Even Lin Run felt that Zhao Hao was too generous and whispered to him that there was no need to give yourself face like this.

    Mr. Zhao smiled and said nothing, looking generous.  In fact, he originally wanted to offer a price of ten cents per stone and soil, plus five cents for shipping to the dock.

    He had asked people to conduct market research before and knew that this price was enough to drive the mountain people with low labor prices crazy.

    Unexpectedly, they were already going crazy when the offer was only ten cents. Mr. Zhao silently did not mention the five cents shipping fee.

    Giving fifteen coins at a time can only make the mountain people happy once.  Give them ten cents first, and then increase it to fifteen cents later, which will make them happy twice.

    Doesn¡¯t this make more sense?  Well, a more serious face.

    But Zhao Hao noticed from the corner of his eye that although all the Hakkas in the sky were trapped in the dream of getting rich, only Lin Zhengying remained unmoved.

    To be precise, after he was moved, he quickly regained his composure, and his face became a little ugly.

    "What?" Lin Run also noticed that Lin Zhengying seemed to have objections, so he asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

    "Back to my uncle, of course we have dreamed of a good life with no worries about food and clothing. But that Feitianyan is where our ancestral graves are." Lin Zhengying said with a frown: "The old saying goes, 'Don't?, all the members of the Lin family who were studying in the county school were expelled from their honors and expelled from the city.  "

    "For sixty years after that, the prefectural and county schools did not allow us, the Lin clan, to take the examination as boys." He said with hatred and gritted his teeth: "This has delayed generations of talents in the clan."

    "If Chaozhou Prefecture had let us take the exam, we wouldn't have failed two subjects in a row!" Lin Yichen also said angrily: "They excluded us just because we Hakkas are so good at studying and took away their places.  Get out!"

    ¡°However, it is difficult to arouse the sympathy of the tribesmen.  Being isolated from the imperial examination gate for sixty years had a huge impact on the cultural and educational undertakings of the Lin family.  Although the clan education has been preserved due to the tradition of farming and studying, but without the imperial examination as a way out, the clansmen just learned how to read and calculate accounts and that was it.

    By this time, there are no serious scholars in Daliao anymore

    ps. I guess I will get scolded here, so I will update it three times today.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
