After all, Wang Youde had been in Xiaoyaojin for many years and was familiar with the tolerances of Kaifeng and Xiangfu counties, as well as the nearby Lizheng. Not only did he buy beef quickly, he also reached a private agreement with the tolerances of the county government.

If there is a problem with a cattle from a family and apply for the government to confirm the slaughter, as long as the tolerance is notified to Wang Youde, the benefit fee will be 30 cents.

Beef is much cheaper than mutton. If you can get a long-term supply problem, it will naturally solve the source of meat dishes and meat oil.

The fat on sheep is still too little and too expensive, and it is not suitable for large-scale stir-frying and soup making. Relatively speaking, much cheaper butter and much more oil and water are much more abundant.

The female chefs in the dining shed were busy and full of energy.

It was less than lunch time, Wang Youde had arranged for someone to take a fishing boat and shouted loudly on the river.

There was plenty of time to prepare, and more than 700 portions were sold for one meal at noon. Due to the increase in cargo ships, Lifu, who did not find much work yesterday, and today he also had money to buy food in his pocket.

Just when Wang Youde was organizing selling "box lunches", Huang Jingsheng had quietly led the yamen to the local official and began to measure the wasteland near Xiaoyaojin.

These wastelands are too barren to even grow vegetables, let alone grow crops, so naturally no one comes to buy them, and they belong to the governments of Kaifeng and Xiangfu.

Buying land is very particular, including white contracts (civil contracts) and red contracts (official contracts).

A white contract means that the buyer and seller signed a contract privately and did not pass taxes in the government, and it is not a completely legal land transaction.

However, due to the large number of civilian white contracts, the government law does not punish the public, and generally just open one's eyes and close it, which is a default.

Li Zhongyi's current identity is quite embarrassing, and the nearby wastelands belong to the government, so he must sign and hold a red deed with the government seal.

Huang Jingsheng was an old man who had become old in the lower class of officialdom. Not only did he personally arrange a carriage to pick up the county government to measure the three tolerances for wasteland, but he also stuffed two stagnants of money in private. As for the local local snake, Li Zheng, Huang Jingsheng gave more, three stagnant copper coins.

According to Li Zhongyi, when a strong dragon cannot swallow the local snake, it should share the benefits equally, so that everyone can have some sweetness.

After arriving at the land, an official in charge of measuring frowned and said, "Official Huang, this place is so barren. Is it necessary to buy so much land? The villain advises you to say something, so why not buy less?"

Huang Jingsheng explained with a smile: "I want to do some small business locally."

"Doing business here?" The man censored Huang Jingsheng in surprise, seriously wondering if his head was clamped by the door.

Huang Jingsheng smiled slightly and said, "I will ask Duan Gong to take care of him at that time."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The tolerance got the benefits of Huang Jingsheng, so it's natural that everything is easy to say.

Huang Jingsheng laughed in his heart. When I was in charge of the Dali Prison, people gave him money to take care of his relatives in the prison. He was also so polite and perfunctory.

It’s easy to say? Without money to make money, no matter how easy it is to say, it will become difficult to say!

Although the thousand acres of wasteland are not a small number, it took eight days to measure the ten tolerances of the two counties.

Huang Jingsheng knew very well that these tolerances were thinking about the benefits he gave and deliberately delayed the progress. He wanted to make more money.

Despite this, Huang Jingsheng was entertaining these tolerances every day with delicious food and drinks. He did not urge them to work quickly.

There are also people who understand Huang Jingsheng's generousness and generosity have developed a little favor.

According to Li Zhongyi's advice, Huang Jingsheng seemed very patient and had time to get along with his connections.

These little people in the county government may not be able to help you, but they can ruin your major events at critical moments. You must be careful.

Planting more flowers is much better than planting thorns everywhere, right?

After measuring the land, Huang Jingsheng deliberately moved about two feet inside when he was on the Stone of the Frontier.

The tolerators all found it a bit incredible. They had measured countless lands, but only heard that they were too much and used, but they had never seen a "daigua" like Huang Jingsheng who took the initiative to acquire less land.

Huang Jingsheng remembered Li Zhongyi's careful advice and was too lazy to explain more. He just smiled and said, "Stay on the front line in everything and meet in the future. I will never make it difficult for you to do."

The tolerators all gave a thumbs up and praised Huang Jingsheng, saying that he was open-minded and generous, unlike some local rich men who had to cut out money from the cracks in the stones.

Huang Jingsheng just laughed, but didn't say anything. The reason why trouble came from the mouth, and right and wrong was only due to force. Even if Li Zhongyi didn't explain it, he knew very well.

After Li Zheng confirmed with his neighbors, Huang Jingsheng accompanied the toll back to the county government office, paid the taxes, and got the red deeds with the seals of the two counties, officially becoming the largest wasteland landlord near Xiaoyaojin.

"Young Master, the money for buying land, plus tax, is equivalent to five jin of land per mu. The bid in the yamen is actually four jin of coins per mu. According to your instructions, I raised the price of land to be collected." Huang Jingsheng reported in detail the process of buying land.

Li Zhongyi chuckled softly and said, "Old Huang, you did a great job. We are in a different situation now. Try not to let others catch the handle on money."

In this Great Zhou Kingdom, there is no problem of moral morality. As long as Li Zhongyi has money and raises ten or eight concubines, no one can control it.

In addition to the incredible reason of rebellion, Zan Jurun's pseudo-Taoism can only start with money.

It is very different from Meng Chang's stupid x. Chai Rong is a hero of a generation. Even Li Zhongyi has taken his plan. You can imagine how powerful it is?

If Zan Jurun really wants to report Li Zhongyi’s “rebellion”, hehe, that’s just a crime and doesn’t want to live anymore!

He requires that all the money that Li Zhongyi has passed by is accurate and that the ins and outs of the treasury money must be clear, and there must be no mistakes or omissions.

To this end, Huang Jingsheng brought the account rooms he invited every day to verify each income and expenses of Xiaoyaojin Card one by one, so as to ensure accurate and accurate.

After obtaining the wasteland, Li Zhongyi drew a planning map and divided the market to be built into five major blocks according to the rules of the wholesale market in later generations, including food, daily necessities, luxury goods, non-simple goods, and southern goods, so that centralized management will be facilitated.

Li Zhongyi plans to learn from the experience of future generations to build a two-story building. The first floor is used as a place for commodity display and business negotiations, and the second floor is used as a small warehouse and a dormitory for the guys.

Of course, it is inappropriate to build such a large market at one time, and Li Zhongyi cannot have spread the stall so big from the beginning.

Phase I project. First set up a smaller market, slowly gather popularity, and then expand the second and third phases.

Therefore, Li Zhongyi arranged for Huang Jingsheng to build a simple teahouse near Jinka.

According to Li Zhongyi's plan, there are few scattered seats inside the teahouse, almost all separated elegant seats. The purpose is very clear, and it is to facilitate businessmen to negotiate business.

In order to seize the time, Huang Jingsheng invited more than 100 carpenters, bricklayers, kiln workers and idle men who worked hard through the Yashi Store.

A large number of people means great power. Under the guidance of an old craftsman who specializes in building houses, the foundation was quickly dug.

The construction site is working very vigorously. Wang Youde's restaurant business is getting better and better, and more and more passers-by come for lunch and evening.

Seeing that the wooden fence gate was soon filled with people, Li Zhongyi decisively gave the order and was outside the second gate of Jinka. He temporarily used hemp rope to enclose a rectangular open space, and several soap servants were guarding nearby and monitoring it.

In the white line, a soap servant arranged nearly a hundred small stools (folding stools) according to Li Zhongyi's instructions. He asked everyone to sit on the stool and hold the bowl to eat.

Li Zhongyi changed into casual clothes, walked to a businessman with his hands behind his back, and bowed with a smile, "This official, let's see how delicious you eat, the food is delicious?"

"Delicious? Not only delicious, it's so satisfying. It's so worth it. It's just five cents, but there are two meats and one vegetable, and the beef bone soup is enough. Adding three meats to three meats..." The businessman cleaned his last bite of the meal, raised his hand to wipe the greasy corner of his mouth, "Oh, I'm so full."

"To be honest, when a villain is at home, he will see meat several times a month. It usually takes ten days and half a month to weigh a pound of meat with his mother and his children, and make a tooth sacrifice.

"It seems that there are some foreign merchants here. If you plan to exchange market conditions with your peers, you can introduce them to you later." Li Zhongyi deliberately asked the merchant tentatively.

The merchant shook his head and said, "The villain has bought all the goods in Kaifeng Prefecture, hired a ship, and returned to Mizhou to sell them."

Li Zhongyi nodded and bowed farewell to the merchant in Mizhou with a smile.

After the merchant left, Li Zhongyi thought, I believe that in the future, merchants will gather here to purchase and ship goods, and exchange market conditions.

In the afternoon, Li Zhongyi specifically asked the soap servants to temporarily free up the first floor shop and specially invited some merchants dressed in to have lunch boxes.

In today's society, successful businessmen generally have good car shops to fill their shoes. Although businessmen in this era can only wear cloth clothes, they can hang small objects showing off their identities around their waists, so they are very easy to recognize.

When the merchants were having dinner, Li Zhongyi did not come forward, but just observed in secret.

Many businessmen are not well educated and do not pay attention to the "no food" rules followed by scholars and officials. They whispered to their companions while eating.

Li Zhongyi saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart. What is important in doing business is the effect of crowding. Let’s chat with his companions first. If someone next to him hears useful business information, he will naturally take the initiative to join in.

At this time, Li Zhongyi suddenly saw a short businessman stuffing a handful of money to Ma Xiaoliu. After Ma Xiaoliu received the money, he ran to another tall businessman who was queuing for food and whispered a few words.

The tall businessman quickly came out of the queue, walked to the shorter businessman, bowed with a smile, "Is this owner interested in lacquerware?"

"Haha, I'm very interested..."

The two businessmen looked around and finally decided to go to the free Jinka dormitory and have a good chat.

Li Zhongyi touched his chin and smiled slightly. Ma Xiaoliu inadvertently acted as an intermediary for a business transaction, and gained considerable benefits. (To be continued)
