Episode 79; Lack of money and starting capital
Episode 79: Shortage of money and capital
"There are three counties that are one or two hundred miles away. Tiedan. You have to arrange the older Blood Guards and younger ones to arrange them nearby."
"only!"
Before the hour of Mao, I will cook for you people who are traveling and go to the river to catch fish. You can arrange your own plans and just go and get it back one hour in advance."
"only!"
"One hour in advance is Yin hour. Now it's half a day, and there are three hours to rest. You go to the 28th Blood Guards sleep in my house tonight. When you get up at Yin hour, you go to work. Sanniang sleeps in my house and the others sleep in your old place."
"only!"
After Zhang Chengfeng finished his explanation, he left the house and changed his slippers. The blood guards had already prepared hot water. Sanniang squatted and washed it clean. Zhang Chengfeng went into the house to rest.
28After receiving the order, the students and the students gathered over for a while, brushed their teeth and washed their faces, and then rested.
As soon as the Yin hour arrived, an alarm bell rang in the house automatically. The 28 Blood Guards were like soldiers, and they got up to make beds and quilts. Zhang Chengfeng's yard had nine main rooms, seven on the left and right sides, and nine on the doormen. Each room had eight upper and lower bunks, which could accommodate 16 people.
During the days when catching fish, San Hundred Tie Guards and 28 Blood Guards lived in this big yard. The wood was planted by Liu Laoshi many years ago. The wooden bed was created by several elders who knew carpenters in the village. They gave some big fish as gifts without spending a lot of money.
Every young man who was able to live in was a very handsome figure dozens of miles away nearby. The adults at home showed off their son's life in Silang's house when they met.
28 The Blood Guards were on time and on time, and according to the orders assigned by the king, they had to go to the teams selling fish in seven counties. Each team had thirty fish, including more than ten kilograms, seven or eight kilograms, and five or six kilograms. Each team had two bamboo baskets on both sides of the animal, which was just right. Zhang Feng carefully calculated the load capacity of the animal, and just filled the weight of a man, with more than one hundred kilograms, so the animal could easily walk away.
Zhang Chengfeng worked at home for more than an hour and finally prepared all the food. It was very rich. The 28th Blood Guard brought the food to Taigong's house.
When the grandfather saw that he had made so many delicious foods, he immediately started nagging again;
"You kid is really good. Why do you make something delicious? Just eat your stomach full."
Zhang Chengfeng smiled and explained;
"If you ask someone to work, you have to ask someone to eat. The king is not too hungry. Only when you eat enough can you have the strength."
The fourteen adults kept swallowing their saliva. After a few words, the grandson of Taigong stopped talking and sat down and started eating and drinking. The fourteen adults were all Taigong's grandsons, nine of their grandsons, and the other six were the grandsons of Taigong's other brothers.
"Taigong, this is the dry food made by my grandson. I took it to eat on the road. This is a kettle, one for everyone. It is convenient to drink water and the hot water is full."
Zhang Chengfeng made a very thoughtful arrangement and was very satisfied with the view.
"Everyone hurry up and eat, eat more, and then get on the road as early as possible."
"It's grandpa."
"You eat yours, I'm talking and listening. You have to learn to endure hardship when you go out. Men are destined to achieve nothing if they can't endure hardship.
Don’t call me tired. I didn’t take it seriously when I was young. Since I worked hard, I should do it well. It’s time for the merchants to repay Silang for several months of food.”
"Grandpa who understands it."
Taigong was nagging, everyone was eating, and they were almost nagging. Everyone had a round stomach. A large group of people came to the door, with three horses and four mules. Each team put two bamboo baskets in place, and Taigong and Zhang Chengfeng personally delivered them to the village entrance.
The team was sent away, and the old and the young sat down and started to have breakfast.
After eating, Zhang Cheng smiled and bowed to the grandfather;
"Taigong, eat slowly. I'll go back first. You don't have to clean up after you finish eating. Those brothers will come to clean up after dawn."
"Okay, okay, kid, go back to sleep, don't think too much, they will all bring back the money tomorrow at the latest."
"Well, I'm not worried about this, I'm leaving."
"Um."
Zhang Chengfeng muttered all the way to his home, constantly calculating along the way;
"A big fish can be sold for more than twenty yuan, and a small one costs more than ten yuan. To sum up, it is 20 yuan. A team can get 600 yuan for thirty fish at a time. The seven teams add up to only four cents of silver. For others, this is indeed a huge capital.
But if you want to do big things, this little money is not enough, alas..."
"The ready-to-wear shop is owed ten points. One day the nearby rivers will have to catch fish. In the end, we have to go to the lake and the rivers to catch fish. That is the continuous industrial chain.
But a small boat costs dozens of stakes, and a medium-sized one costs hundreds of stakes. You can earn four stakes every two days. If you buy a boat, you have to work hard for a year. Alas…”
Zhang Chengfeng, who was melancholy, sat alone in the corner of the village, muttering alone.
An old pair of eyes hid in the darkness before dawn and watched his every move. This was Zhang Chengfeng's grandmother and Mrs. Liu, who listened to the words of his good grandson without missing a word.
"Brother, are you thinking about your plan to make money again?"
The sudden sound scared Zhang Chengfeng;
"Good guy, beautiful sister, don't you say hello in advance if you come out to play?"
"Isn't this just saying hello to you? Have you figured out how to make a fortune?"
"Well, I've thought about it, and the same is still the same. One is to catch fish and sell fish. I want to do this business throughout the Jiuzhou and all over the world. The other is to start selling salt quickly. This also needs to do this all over the world."
"Wow, I'm doing all over the world of Jiuzhou and the four seas is very different from the one I had a few months ago. Congratulations to you, you've begun to integrate into this era."
"I can't fit in. This is what you taught me by the beautiful sister,
You don’t mean that in the future, there will be millions of coins of silver, or even tens of millions of coins. I can’t help him too much if I don’t find a way to make money. Even if I find Liu Bang in the future, I can’t help him too much."
"Yes, I'm right. In war, it's actually about who has more money. If you don't even have this foundation, don't participate. The second is how many people compare, and the third is how many talents. These are all hard conditions and are indispensable. So I still want to remind you that you not only need to find a way to make money, but also find a way to gather more people and heroes from all walks of life. Money alone is not enough!"
Zhang Chengfeng, who was extremely depressed, grabbed his hair;
"Please, Miss, stop urging me. I'm already recruiting soldiers. I haven't seen that I have a lot of subordinates now? I haven't been idle for a day."
"What are you talking about in those three hundred iron guards?"
"There are 28 Blood Guards."
