Huang Xianrong had a regretful look on his face. He could not make more money, but he listened to Yang Huanjin.
"Brother Yang, you said 500,000 yuan. Does Li Dongzhu want pickled mustard or pepper? We need to go back and prepare first. "
Huang Xianrong planned to collect in advance when the season came. This was to prevent Li Yi from suddenly buying at a high price.
"Li Dongzhu is benevolent and righteous. He cares about the people of the Tang dynasty.
Originally, he wanted to secretly make pickled mustard, but he spread the word that people in Shu County are not easy to make money from. "
Yang Huanjin praised Li Yi. Li Yi had thought of several ways to make money from Shu County.
Later, he found that it was too troublesome. He did not want to make money himself but had to sell mustard.
He might as well let the local people make it. When it was done, he could sell it to all parts of the Tang dynasty.
"I think people in the government like to eat mustard. Li Dongzhu helped to spread the word that it can be used to make soup, pickled vegetables, or stir-fried vegetables. I guess he wants to make mustard."
Huang Xianrong guessed that the name of mustard was suggested by Li Yi. The key was in the word mustard.
There were many varieties of mustard. One of the varieties of mustard in Shu County was most suitable for making mustard.
Mustard was originally not very tasty. Now, people in Shu County found land that did not grow crops and planted it.
There was no shortage of salt in Shu County. The well salt was better than sea salt.
When Yang Huanjin heard about the mustard, he was hungry. When he came to Chang 'an, the mustard was mixed with shredded onions and pickled vegetables.
He swallowed his saliva and said: "This money is not used to transport things from Shu County to Chang 'an."
"If we don't transport them, he will give us money?" Huang Xianrong took out a handful of pine nuts and bit them with his teeth. Crack.
"Li Dongzhu wants to buy things. Send someone to Shu County to deliver a letter saying what Li Family Zhuangzi wants.
Our people will immediately ship it over and get the money when we arrive. Why does Li Dongzhu need to pay first? "
As the leader of the Shu Salt Gang, Yang Huanjin's analysis was more thorough.
He knew that Li Yi had sent a message saying that he wanted pickled vegetables.
Even those who did not have the capital dared to find someone to get the pickled mustard, saying that they would send it to Li Yi to Chang 'an and give him the money when they got back.
And those who had pickled vegetables and were unwilling to run away would really sell them to this person on credit.
If the Li Family Zhuangzi did not have this bit of credibility, how could the exchange coupons be circulated in Shu County?
Nowadays, the people of Shu were still talking about the battle with the Southwest Barbarians and made many stories about it.
The Shu people felt that they were all participants. There was a Li Family Zhuangzi from the Murky River in the capital government who had won a war with money alone.
With his help, he delivered the supplies to the front line at a slightly slower speed than the express mail.
It was said that they captured more than 200,000 captives and sent them all to the Li Family Zhuangzi. The Li Family Zhuangzi was rich.
Yang Huanjin believed that if he went back and heard such stories again, he might become a captive of 500,000 people.
In fact, there were only about 10,000 people. The more the story spread, the more there would be.
"The Li Dongzhu gave us the money to buy things and hire people to deliver them to the front line when the situation at the front line is tight. This money is for the soldiers at the front line."
Yang Huanjin took a few pine nuts from Huang Xianrong's hand. As he spoke, he took out a small pair of pliers from his pocket and broke the pine nuts.
Huang Xianrong touched his cheek: "Brother Yang, why didn't you take out the pliers earlier? Watch me crack them with my teeth. "
… …
"Tomorrow, 20 of you will ride bicycles to sell newspapers. Remember to press the bell and quickly get used to it."
The Li Family Zhuangzi, Song De, instructed the 20 paperboys who did not receive the newspaper in the morning.
The 20 children were slightly older and were all boys.
In the morning, the other paperboys ran away after receiving the newspaper, leaving them to wait.
At this moment, they were learning to ride bicycles. The bicycle had a crossbeam.
Li Yi had personally demonstrated that they could ride from the crotch, which meant that one leg could step from the bottom of the crossbeam to the pedals, which was suitable for children.
They could ride from the crossbeam in front of them and lift their legs from the front over the crossbeam to the pedals, which was suitable for older children.
They could also lift their legs from the back. This was the way for adults.
The children who sold newspapers learned the third way. The saddle was slightly lower, and they could ride from one leg to the pedals.
When Li Yi was young, he was not tall enough and his legs were not long enough. He also rode the old bicycle without touching the crotch.
When he was riding, his body would be on one side of the bicycle and the other side of the bicycle. Every time he rode, his legs would be hanging from the crossbeam.
Of course, he could not sit on the saddle. He could only kick back and forth on the crossbeam.
During the demonstration, Li Yi also did some 'difficult' maneuvers such as sticking to the bicycle, going up and down without touching the ground, riding upside down, not holding the handlebars with both hands, lifting the front wheel, and stopping the bicycle.
However, he couldn't jump to a high place with the back wheels of the car.
Even so, the audience felt that Dongzhu was awesome. He knew so many maneuvers.
After the demonstration, Li Yi went back to class.
The children began to learn to ride with unlimited dreams. They were very eager to learn.
There was a Winged Knights at the back who held the backseat with his hand while the child pedaled in front.
After the child started to run, the Winged Knights would let go. When the child pedaled, normal people would find that the handlebars were tilted to the left. It was not easy to control.
If it was a left-hander, the handlebars would tilt to the right.
They tried their best to adjust. The space was big enough, so they would draw a big circle when the handlebars were tilted.
Next was the problem of balancing the left and right. Their hands and arms were very tired.
They did not know how to learn, but at this level, everyone's learning progress was the same in fifteen minutes. It was especially fast.
After another fifteen minutes, they could control the left and right. The Winged Knights would sit in the back seat.
The child led the Winged Knights forward. When they encountered a problem with balance, the Winged Knights would use their feet to brake, let the child ride, and then sit on it.
In an hour, the twenty children had learned the basics from the beginning to being able to lead people out and turn.
The rest was their own practice. As for the movements that Li Yi demonstrated, it was not something that could be learned in a day or two.
They practiced until lunch, but the children did not feel tired.
After lunch, they were forced to take a bath and then take a two-hour nap before they were allowed to ride again.
When the sky turned dark, the lights were lit. The children ate dinner and rode in the square.
Early the next morning, the twenty children took the newspapers and set off under the envious gaze of the other children.
"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers. The Li Family Zhuangzi's new bicycle is the one I ride. Only those who buy kerosene lamps and thermos bottles are qualified to buy it."
'Ding ling ling ~ ~ Ding ling ling ~ ~ Selling newspapers, the first choice of rich people when they travel. Buy one with qualifications. One thousand carvings, lifetime warranty. "
"People who can't balance can't ride even if they buy a bicycle. The Li Family Zhuangzi is in charge of training. People who can ride bicycles are stronger than others."
"One thousand carvings, riding is comfortable. Nobles have it, and they respect it. "
The children rode their bicycles from the east to the west of the city. They said that they were selling newspapers, but they did not stop at all. They had to deliver the newspapers to the people who subscribed to the newspapers in the west of the city first.
The people on the road all moved aside. They heard the price and felt helpless.
