Chapter 357
When the weather is cold, the three children like to play in the greenhouse.
The melons and fruits planted in the greenhouse make their children very happy. They often secretly pick cucumbers and eat them.
This vegetable seems to make a lot of money. In fact, where can there be so much sales?
In the Empire, aoxingyu deliberately sent people to the government to pay more taxes, so as to create a scene of making a lot of vegetables in the north, which made imperial concubine Yun and the crown prince itch in their hearts, but there was nothing they could do about it.
Who can think of a trick like fresh vegetables in winter in the worthless north?
Aoxingyu took the opportunity to send someone to transport back a large amount of silver to buy grain and transport it back to Beidi.
The north is not rich in food, but it is rich in ore.
Aoxingyu has been operating in Beidi for many years. In addition to the gem mine, it also controls a silver mine, which is the foundation for aoxingyu to settle down.
Just because the emperor had great power, in order to avoid trouble, aoxingyu didn't mature in power and didn't dare to prove that the majority used the silver from the silver mine. This time, the so-called sky high price vegetables gave aoxingyu an opportunity to use the silver from the silver mine. Aoxingyu made good use of Xia Xiaochan's sky high price fresh vegetables and naturally made a lot of money.
Of course, this sum of silver is certainly not enough for military expenditure.
At this time, due to the value of sky high vegetables, many expensive ladies poured into the palace to visit Xia Xiaochan and want to take a share.
Among them, there are several wives of capable generals in aoxingyu's hand.
The first person who came to the palace to find Xia Xiaochan was the wife of Yunxi City, the five northern cities.
Yunxi city leader is a confidant of aoxingyu. His wife specially came to Liaoyuan from Yunxi and called on Xia Xiaochan to visit. Xia Xiaochan will never refuse to see Yunxi city leader's wife.
The main city owner of Yunxi city is surnamed Zhou. When Mrs. Zhou came, she brought her son and daughter. Her daughter is in her early ten years and her son is five or six years old. She is a cool little brother. She looks cool and unsmiling. She looks very cute.
Xia Xiaochan estimated that the child married after learning from his own father. The city Lord of Yunxi is also a person who doesn't laugh.
After the two sides said polite words, they respectively accepted each other's meeting gifts. Several children went to one side to play, while Xia Xiaochan and Mrs. Zhou talked.
Mrs. Zhou paused and said, "princess, I heard that you... Did you take the wives of Liaoyuan city to do vegetable business?"
Although Xia Xiaochan had guessed, she confirmed it at this time and said, "yes, Mrs. Zhou, is this?"
Mrs. Zhou's face was a little embarrassed. She paused and gritted her teeth, "Princess, to tell you the truth, my family is only busy with official business every day. I don't know how difficult it is to make a living at home. My eldest son is almost fifteen and is getting married. My eldest daughter is thirteen. There are two daughters and two sons below. They want money for marriage one by one. Women are in charge of the inner house. I also have some spare money. I want to follow my mother's vegetable business, my mother , is that all right? "
For the vegetable shop, Xia Xiaochan naturally refused.
However, Xia Xiaochan put forward a more attractive way to make money.
The vegetable shop was originally arranged to boil Xingyu and successfully take out the money in the silver mine to buy soldiers' supplies. Now, to solve the urgent need, it will not engage in this vegetable business again.
Xia Xiaochan said, "Madam Zhou, it's like this. Because the vegetable shop is saturated with business, and it won't be long before spring. At that time, the South has its own vegetable production. In terms of transportation, the vegetables are easy to rot and not so easy to preserve. Therefore, investing in the vegetable business is not a good choice now."
"Ah? Is that so? It's a pity that I missed it."
Xia Xiaochan was noncommittal and only said to Zhou Fu, "Madam Zhou, look at the princess's clothes and jewelry?"
Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment. Looking at her stunning appearance and all-round clothes, she couldn't help admiring, "the princess's clothes are very good, noble and elegant, walking neatly and keeping warm."
Xia Xiaochan said, "Mrs. Zhou, guess how much my clothes cost?"
Zhou Fu said humanely, "this? I'm afraid it's worth 500 taels. After all, such clothes bring their own precious stones. They're very valuable."
Xia Xiaochan said, "the cost of this dress and shoes is about fifty Liang."
"Ah? No... no?"
Mrs. Zhou has also seen good things. Naturally, she can see that the workmanship of the clothes and the gemstones inlaid on them are very exquisite.
To tell you the truth, such clothes and shoes are sold for five hundred Liang, which is completely bought.
At least, she is very excited and wants to have such a body.
Anyway, it can't be worn out in a year. Such good goods can be worn for several years.
Mrs. Zhou was in a hurry. Just as her daughter was looking for her mother-in-law's family, she needed to buy more good clothes. She wanted to go out to meet the guests and find her son's daughter-in-law. She also needed more clothes to meet the guests. Now, without hesitation, she said, "princess, where did you make this dress? Can I make it?"
Xia Xiaochan said, "what's wrong with this? Madam Zhou, speaking of it, Lord Zhou has been working for the Lord for many years and has been diligent for the people. The Lord has always seen such a good official. The Lord has said that he should give more praise, but the situation in Beidi is now, and the Lord is in a dilemma."
The conversation turned and said, "however, the princess thought of a way to reward Lord Zhou. I don't know if Mrs. Zhou has the courage to do it?"
"What...?" Zhou Fu's heart was beating wildly.
Xia Xiaochan said, "Mrs. Zhou, such clothes and jewelry shops are produced by a shop called 'famous girls' under the princess. The princess has her own sources of clothes, fabrics and gemstones. To tell Mrs. Zhou the truth, I earn this amount in a month."
"Is this... One thousand taels? Or ten thousand taels?"
Xia Xiaochan said, "this month, I made a profit of 50000 Liang. Of course, this is the account book. Mrs. Zhou might as well have a look?"
Mrs. Zhou jumped in her heart, "isn't this... Very good?"
"Mrs. Zhou, if I tell you that you only need to pay me a joining fee of 10000 Liang silver, you can open a shop like this in Yunxi city. You can choose the address of the shop, and you can choose the man. All the clothes and jewelry are taken from me. After the goods are sold, you can settle the payment with me. At that time, all the money earned by the clothes will belong to you. Mrs. Zhou is satisfied with such a shop Are you interested? "
As soon as Xia Xiaochan said these words, even Mrs. Zhou was stunned.
"Princess, are you... What you said is true? Are you really willing to give me some of such a golden egg?"
Xia Xiaochan said, "Madam Zhou, the 10000 Liang franchise fee is the internal price. Don't say it outside. In each city, I'm only going to open two such stores. If madam Zhou is willing, when she leaves, she can take a batch of goods first. This is also a benefit for the prince to take care of his confidants. Madam Zhou, don't say it."
"I, I will never say it."
I'm kidding. It's a shop that can earn tens of thousands of dollars a month. She can take such precious jewels and clothes at will. How generous it is for the king to appreciate her husband!
My husband has been neglecting his official duties recently. No, she has to make her husband work harder.
The next day, Mrs. Zhou sent someone back to pick up ten thousand taels of silver. A few days later, she left ten thousand taels of silver and took away a large number of clothes and jewelry#####
