"Li Dongzhu." A young man greeted Li Yi as they entered the cafeteria.
"Have you recovered?" Li Yi smiled.
"Yes, yes. When I woke up, I thought I was in the underworld. Later, I found out that Li Dongzhu's medical skills are superb and can cure terminal illnesses."
The one who spoke was Xu Xiao 'er, whose brother had been a cadaver for Li Yi and had gotten intestinal abscess.
He and his family were temporarily living in Zhuangzi to recuperate.
Li Yi was kind. Not only did he feed them well, but he also arranged work for them.
Because Xu Xiao 'er's family made a living by prospecting, they were always able to find good mines, such as copper, iron, and gold.
He didn't say how he found them because it was a secret.
Li Yi only had a map and knowledge of prospecting, but he didn't know how to do it.
Therefore, he planned to arrange for his family to work with Li Longji at the gold mines and let them decide where to dig.
If the family didn't have the ability, they would be asked to leave Zhuangzi after they were cured. Li Yi was kind and didn't want to delay the family from making a living.
Staying was kindness, and asking them to leave was kindness.
The Xu family had always helped others find mines and had seen many situations, such as coercion, bribery, and relationships …
They knew their own value and understood the other party's intentions.
Song De only mentioned it, and the Xu family happily agreed. They waited for Xu Xiao 'er to recover so that he could work for the Li Family Zhuangzi.
His family had been rich before, but they had also suffered great losses.
They understood how important it was to find a good employer. Gold, iron, and copper mines, no matter which one was found, should be reported to the imperial court.
His family had helped others find mines, but none of them had anything to do with the yamen. How dangerous was that?
After some observation, they discovered that the Li Family's manor was not a place where the owner of the manor was a commoner.
Zhuangzi's guards were usually equipped with crossbows, and the empress's Winged Knights were also present.
Even the Prime Minister's family didn't receive such treatment, right?
Zhuangzi was a big family with a big business. How could he bully a small family like theirs?
Just like that, the two sides got to know each other, communicated, and waited for the time to be arranged to find the mine.
Other than Xu Xiao 'er, the whole family was very happy. Only Xu Xiao' er could not forget the beauty that Yama had arranged for him.
Recently, he had been working hard to learn how to read. He realized that the distance between him and beautiful women was widened by talent and wealth.
The beautiful woman's income was very high, and at the same time, she could write and calculate.
This morning, he came over at the right time, hoping to meet the beauty by chance.
While talking to Li Yi, he looked around, looking for someone.
Li Yi didn't know that there was something else going on. He noticed that Xu Xiao 'er was looking around, so he thought that Xu Xiao' er was hungry. After saying a few words, he entered the private room.
Xu Xiao 'er scooped some food for himself and walked around. The cafeteria was one room after another. Where was the beauty?
"Uncle, there should be a time when you stop selling newspapers to foreign countries. Seeing how much money Zhuangzi has to spend, my heart aches."
Empress Wang wanted to know the last resort, so she asked about it now.
"The 5th of May is the Dragon Boat Festival. It's very lively. I don't know if there will be a dragon boat race, but it just so happens that the mugwort for medical use needs to be picked.
Let's start now. I'll ask Song De to arrange it. The people who used to pick tea in the capital government will help to pick the mugwort.
After getting it, I'll make it into mugwort sticks and give it to people for moxibustion. This thing can be rolled into a rope and lit at night to smoke mosquitoes.
As for the newspaper, there's no hurry. It can still be supported. The newspaper printed on one side can be used to write on the back.
I'll think of a way to improve the printing process and see if the back can be printed. That way, the materials can be saved. "
Today was the 1st of May. Li Yi was talking about the festival.
"There's a dragon boat, but I can't see it. I have to take care of the baby." Empress Wang said regretfully.
Sure enough, after eating, Li Yi asked someone to send a message to the people picking tea to ask for the mugwort.
It didn't have to be mugwort. Other mugwort had the same insect repellent effect.
As long as it was mugwort, they could pick as much as they wanted.
"Fang Laoqi's wife, let me tell you a piece of good news. Our Zhuangzi has started to collect mugwort to make incense and mugwort sticks.
We want all kinds of mugwort. Dongzhu said that they can be processed and made into a plate of incense. It's cheaper and more convenient than making rope.
The price is high and you can earn more than picking tea leaves now. Go back and tell the others so that they can pick the mugwort and send it over. "
The person who collected the mugwort said to a woman whose husband broke his leg working in the mine and was recuperating.
When collecting the mugwort, he tried to set the price as high as possible so that the woman could earn more money.
"You're collecting mugwort? You want everything? Okay, thank you. I'll definitely tell the others and sell it when the time comes. "
The woman showed a grateful expression and thanked him again and again.
The other people who came with the hired carriage also agreed. The mugwort was almost gone.
They were all big leaves and were easier to pick. Many of the tea trees were bald.
The price of big leaves was low, especially the leaves that were bitten by insects. The price was even lower.
However, the mugwort was easy to pick and the quantity was large, so the income was still considerable.
They were worried that in the future, when they heard that a large amount of mugwort was being collected, there would be no need to pick mugwort.
There were many mugwort on the roadside, let alone on the mountain.
"Li Dongzhu is benevolent and righteous. He found us a job to make money again. From last year until now, the money we earned is equivalent to two years of income."
"Quick, go back and tell everyone to harvest mugwort. Li Dongzhu took it and used it on us commoners."
"Yes, don't keep it a secret. If there are better jobs in the future, others will tell us too."
The people who sold the mugwort said one after another. When they finished collecting the mugwort, they rushed back with the money.
Some people saw mugwort on the road and wanted to pick it, but they were stopped by others. Now that they had picked it, they had to bring it back. It was a waste of time.
There were many mugwort near the water and on the mountain. In any case, the Li Family Zhuangzi wanted all kinds of mugwort. They just took sickles and ropes and went to harvest mugwort.
In front of the Imperial City, the people from the Fan Nation bought 300,000 copies of the newspaper and took out 900,000 yuan.
The Li Family Zhuangzi had paid more than one chapter and nine coins. The price of the paper was very high. It was equivalent to the cost of 17 copper coins.
In one day, the Li Family Zhuangzi lost 4.2 million yuan selling mugwort to the Fan Nation.
The Li Family Zhuangzi was selling large amounts of soap and perfumed soaps to raise money. They couldn't wait until they ran out of money.
In Henan Province, no one used locusts to exchange for the chickens and ducklings.
The commoners realized that it was not worth it. They would rather keep the locusts to feed the chickens and ducks.
They paid to buy the chickens and ducklings.
The first batch of money was being sent back to support the Zhuangzi's newspaper war.
Because of the newspaper incident, the whole of Chang 'an became strange.
Even the commoners understood that this was a war. A war between the Li Family Zhuangzi and the Fan Nation.
The commoners were anxious. Seeing the Li Family Zhuangzi spend money like water, they didn't know how to help.
Should they give the Li Family Zhuangzi money? They might as well go to Honglu Temple and kill him or rob the Fan Nation of their money.
The businessmen wanted to raise money for Li Yi. They were not afraid that the money would go to waste. Li Yi had the skills.
They were calculating. Li Yi had received 210,000 yuan in Lantian County.
If they paid 4,200 yuan a day, it could last for more than 50 days.
It was still early. The Li Family Zhuangzi could still continue. Based on the Li Family Zhuangzi's previous sales, it could last for at least a year.
After calculating, they realized that the Li Family Zhuangzi was too rich.
The toilet water had not been sold in large quantities yet. This meant that the Li Family Zhuangzi was not in a hurry.
The Fan Nation's people were in a hurry. What was Li Yi doing? He was at a disadvantage, but he still wanted to gain more.
