Chapter 54. Spree

Mao Jue was really amused and crying. Two maids holding petals buried their faces in the flower basket. The four girls carrying sedan chairs were also holding their smiles and twitching their handsome little faces. As for the young master of kidney deficiency, the young wife hugged her in the sedan like that, just like Mao Jue mocked him.

"Brother Mao! A gentleman's friendship is as light as water. Although Qian is as beautiful as Pan An and as Song Yu, you are too proactive!"

"Brother Qian!"

"I think Qian has always been clean and has a body that is more virtuous than corundum. How can Qian still have the face to hang out in the world?"

"Brother Qian!"

"Qian should just go to Jiang Zhiming Jie..."

Seeing that this guy was about to say something, a few blue veins jumped up on Mao Jue's forehead and a finger suddenly stood up.

"A mirror! Three thousand and five hundred marten fur, seventy boxes of ginseng, eight boxes of Dongzhu, and several herbs. Since Brother Qian wants to show his ambitions by his death, then Qian can only find another buyer for these goods!"

"so much!"

He really did not change his true nature of a businessman. When he heard this, Qian Zeng's eyes were as bright as a light bulb. He didn't act pitiful, so he directly bulleted off the chair, and then he turned around with his hands behind his back and excitedly.

"By the way, Brother Qian was promoted to Tieshan Ginseng General. Don't you have as much of the products here as you want! Now it's really..."

"Don't be too happy too early. Whether you hand over the things to you depends on what you brought back to Mao!"

This time it was Mao Jue's turn to ignore him, holding his arms and holding his head proudly, forcing the guy who was obsessed with interests to quickly take out the account book from his arms, and bowed with fists and such a fist.

"Aren't this all ready for Brother Mao?"

…………

"Wow!"

His breathing was a little rapid. Su Yi's beautiful big eyes even widened a little. He held a brush and stared at the boxes that were moving around. Sometimes he even forgot to write and draw on the account book. It was Su Changmei behind her who coughed softly, which made the girl wake up.

No wonder this girl is like this. In this era, no region in the world can surpass Jiangnan, Paris, London, and Berlin in terms of prosperity, these famous metropolises in later generations are only tens of thousands. When they were like a big town, the population of Jinling had exceeded hundreds of thousands. Some people even speculated that the population here exceeded one million, and the peak of the migrant population reached two million. Not only here, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Changshu, Shaoxing, a series of areas, are densely populated, and the development of the population has also brought about a highly developed commodity economy.

The boxes of tea leaves, exquisite porcelain, reflecting agate-like lacquer boxes, red-skin furniture, and especially the one that makes the plain clothes breathe rapidly! The knitted tightly and the pattern is bright, batches of silk are moved to the hands of the workers, just as ordinary as the northerners carried cabbages for winter. She had never seen so many silk cloths in her life, and this thing quickly made up into all kinds of beautiful clothes in her little brain.

It took up so much space on the brain processor, and the Puyi's little face was red and hot, no wonder she was confused.

Qian Zeng could do things, but he didn't know how he built the momentum. Anyway, he was furious about a mirror with less than a few taels of capital to a sky-high price of 66,666 taels. He was unceremoniously accepted more than 6,000 taels in the arms of a scholarly family or a rich salt merchant in Yangzhou. After he bought more than 6,000 taels of goods for Mao Jue, he dug out all the transportation and handling points, and brought back more than 16,000 taels of cash.

Here, silk and tea are just enough for Mao Jue to make a profit of two or three times. As a warlord, the core strength is actually silver. If there is silver, there will be soldiers and guns. No wonder Mao Wenlong was willing to go to Tieshan for this to praise Mao Jue specifically.

However, if you don’t eat hunger or clothes for cold, Mao Jue cares more about the shiny southern goods in front of you.

"It's all here!"

He led Mao Jue onto the boat, and Young Master Kidney Deficiency also pointed at the other end with some anxiety.

Now Mao Jue is a bird gun and cannon replacement. The Tieshan Ginseng General is not just a border guard. It is directly built on the land of the Korean Kingdom and is adjacent to both North Korea and the Later Jin Dynasty. It can be said that the number of local specialties such as ginseng and mink in these two places can pass through, just depends on Mao Jue's cough.

As for how much benefit the ginseng minks and other northern goods can obtain, from Nurhaci smuggling at high prices to iron tools that the Ming army did not allow to leave the customs, paying a series of high war expenses, and finally armed the Eight Banners of Manchuria, and defeated the Ming Dynasty, the owner of Liaodong in one fell swoop, which shows that it became the Ming Dynasty's confidant.

These unknown immortal herbs growing in the mountains are even more valuable in Jiangnan than in the same volume of gold. The Jiangnan people's fanaticism with ginseng became a major boost to the rise of the Later Jin Dynasty.

Therefore, for the money he had been more determined to flatter Mao Jue.

Fortunately, in his eager eyes, Mao Jue, who had boarded the boat, also had his eyes lit up.

The sacks contain corn cobs, and their home is in the north. Mao Jue was so familiar with this scene that he reached out and picked up one. Although it was smaller than the big corn cob in my memory, the grains were not too full, but the white corn grains still emitted a faint fragrance.

Not only this thing, but the sweet potatoes next to them have already grown buds. Although the moisture at the sea makes this thing no longer edible, this thing is exactly what Mao Jue needs, and there are also potatoes that are much bigger than I remember. There are also red tomatoes in the pot, and there are also many plants that Mao Jue doesn't recognize.

In the Age of Discovery, it was not only the Western powers that made profits, but also one of the huge beneficiaries. It was because of the abundant yields of these foreign things that the Qing Empire broke the population to the peak of the feudal era, 400 million!

It seems that Qian Zeng has really spent a lot of effort to collect these, pulling out the back gardens of countless wealthy Yangzhou families, and putting a piece of sweet potato back into the sack with trembling hands. Mao Jue wanted to kiss this kidney deficiency guy with white face and white face cream in one mouthful.

"Brother Qian, you are really Mao's lucky star!"

"Haha, a little gardening object is not worthy of Brother Mao's praise!"

He was good at taking advantage of the price. This money was once a typical example. When he held his arms, the young master of kidney deficiency became proud once. However, his words did not exceed the understanding of this era. Tomatoes and peppers were first introduced to China as ornamental plants, and corn was similar. The inner court once planted them in the imperial garden and used them as special starch every year.

The most unlucky thing about these new foreign things should be potatoes. They were accidentally brought into the Ming Dynasty. The first ones they came into contact with were the coastal areas of Jiangnan with low latitudes. But these places were the least suitable for growing potatoes, so these round guys were neglected. It was not until the Qianlong period that they were taken to the north by refugees who were wandering everywhere to test and began to become popular.

The only good ones that are good at getting sweet potatoes, which are not taken seriously by conservative officials, and only have some cultivation near Fujian.

If this crop enters Shaanxi and Henan in time when it is needed most, it will be difficult for a vibrant farmer to set off a wave of Li Zicheng's million-strong army. With life-saving straw, they plant it in the garden. Chongzhen was still worried about military pay and food year after year. Whenever he watched Mingfen and Minghe spray each other online, Mao Jue always felt that this was really a great irony.

People are always greedy. With so many things, Mao Jue is still a little dissatisfied and turned around and asked Qian Zeng excitedly.

"By the way, Brother Qian, have you ever found the tobacco I want?"

The food I eat is almost solved under the crops of this ship. Even if it doesn’t work this year, I can still try it next year. After all, I can find the money for the first time, and I should be able to find the second time. Mao Jue’s pursuit has been improved one level.

How much profit is tobacco? Even if smoking is harmful to health in later generations, smoking is not allowed in public places, all kinds of tobacco and alcohol stores are still popular. It can be seen that it has also become one of the important images of the US military on the battlefield of World War II.

This thing is a disguised mental analgesic. Now Liaodong is in this dangerous atmosphere of fighting all day long. It is conceivable how much mental pressure is. Even if it is not sold out and given to its soldiers as a reward, it is a disguised way to improve combat effectiveness.

"Haha, Brother Mao really asked the right person. This thing is only a small number in Zhejiang. If Qian hadn't had a few friends who had dated people in the West, Qian wouldn't have gotten it!"

He boasted proudly that Qian Zeng opened a bag again, and Mao Jue looked over with hope, but the next second he almost vomited blood.

The bag was all dried, and the brown color that had already emitted the tobacco fragrance!

"Brother Qian, seeds! Can you plant them!"

Seeing Mao Jue turning against him faster than reading, he roared with a dark face and gritted his teeth. Qian Zeng's forehead covered with thick white cream could not help but have a chance of sweat beads flowing out, and he stuttered and started to smile and gesture.

"Well, Brother Mao, this thing is planted too little, and the court has explicitly banned smoking. It is a prohibited product, so I really haven't found much!"

"But Brother Mao, the only one Yangzhou great master Fan who bought Brother Mao's mirror, heard that Brother Mao Suxi gardening, so he gave Brother Mao a slave! With her help, it should be much easier for Brother Mao to plant these!"

It was really a full set of gift packs. Not only the seeds, but all the technicians arrived. Mao Jue was really interested in listening to it. He didn't notice that when he mentioned this, a thick layer of despicableness appeared on his face.

"Why don't you take me to see it!"

It was really a bit obscene. Standing on the stairs and peering down, Qian Zeng had a completely abnormal smile on his face, and he pointed at his little finger, but Mao Jue's mouth twitched again.
Chapter completed!
