Chapter 308: Build a shop


    Chapter 308 Building a Shop


    There are many people fleeing famine, and some of them are prospering like the Gu family tofu stall. Many people fleeing famine are still selling their children and daughters, or even begging, in order to survive.


    It was then that Shuli Lu and Shuli Zhang from Silifang knew that thend was bought by the Gu family tofu stall.


    The two of them were very surprised. Secretary Lu said: "Those families are really capable."


    Recently, Jiang County Lieutenant and Xu County Magistrate have be close. Xu County Magistrate praises Jiang County Lieutenant again and again. Many important matters are left to Jiang County Lieutenant to handle, and he is much colder to Zou County Magistrate.


    Those families are protected by Jiang County Lieutenant.


    After weighing the pros and cons, the two scribes, Lu and Zhang, felt that they should be honest and not cause trouble with those families, so as not to get involved in the fight between Jiang Xianwei and Zou Xiancheng.


    But after all, the person they wanted to go to was Zou County Cheng, so they followed the usual practice and wrote a letter and sent it to Chef Li at Fugui Building, asking him to send someone to Zou Mansion.


    Chef Li received the letter and sent a man to deliver it to Zou Mansion without saying anything.


    However, Chef Li felt that the purchase of more than ten acres ofnd for the Gu family tofu stall was not worth informing the county magistrate. The Gu family can earn dozens of taels of silver a day by selling tofu and spices, and they can buy more than ten acres of wastnd. What should they report?


    Zou Xiancheng was very sad when he received the letter. He had also thought about that piece of wastnd in his early years. After all, it was in the town and he could make a fortune by buying and building a shop.


    But he failed to find the owner of the wastnd, and after many years, he gave up on it.


    At this moment, when he learned that Qin Guluotian''s family had bought wastnd, even though they only bought a dozen acres, he felt unhappy and wanted to send someone to rob thend.


    But before he took action, something even more coveted appeared in Tianfu County and several neighboring countiessoybean oil!


    I dont know who made the soybean oil, but it suddenly appeared in a very special ce, including various temples and temples in several counties.


    The first people to eat soybean oil were the masters in Taoist temples. These masters gave soybean oil to believers who came to offer incense.


    The believers felt that the things given by the masters were blessings, so they received them happily and took them home to cook.


    Don''t mention it, although the taste of soybean oil is not as strong as that of meat oil, the dishes made are also delicious, with the aroma of oil, and the oil and water are sufficient, which makes you strong after eating it.


    After those people finished eating, when they went to the Taoist temple to offer incense, they asked the masters if there was any soybean oil left? They don''t need the masters to give them to them, they are happy to pay for them.


    The masters told them about a shop, and they went to the shop to inquire. They learned that soybean oil was sold very cheaply, only twenty cents per pound, which was a full ten cents cheaper than meat oil.


    Farmers in several counties are going crazy with joy, and many families who cannot afford fatty meat have begun to buy soybean oil.


    Zou County Cheng was not stupid. He knew that the soybean oil was not only profitable, but also a good thing that benefited the country and the people. He immediately asked Mr. Shao to go and check it in person. He must find out who made the soybean oil.


    However, several wealthy families in Fucheng were faster than him and had already taken action to find out who made the soybean oil so that they could get a share of the pie.


    But after searching and searching, I found Zhongzhou!


    After a few days of investigation in Zhongzhou, several wealthy families in Fucheng have stopped trying to make soybean oil. The mountains are really getting higher and higher. The wealthy families in Fucheng like them are not as good as one of the three major trading houses in Dachu. , and the noble families in the capital.


    Master Shao had a ssmate who worked as a retainer in a wealthy family in Fucheng. When he learned that Master Shao was checking the owner of soybean oil, he reminded him: "Stop checking, stop it quickly. It belongs to the noble family in the capital. Lets not try to get a share of the pie.


    What county is an adult, what kind of mansion, the city, in the eyes of the city, not even a fart, dare to hit the idea of others, be careful not to lose his life. Master Shao was shocked when he heard this. He hurried back to Zou Mansion and informed Zou County Cheng of what he had found.


    When Zou Xiancheng found out, he was so frightened that he never dared to do soy oil again.


    While Zou County Cheng and others were thinking about soybean oil, Gu Jinli had already drawn three drawings and showed them to several adults when they came to settle the daily ounts.


    Luo''s father looked at the two back-to-back courtyards on the drawing and said in surprise: "Xiaoyu, are you going to build two courtyards?"


    The shops in the town all have three front berths, plus four side rooms in the back.


    But in the drawings Xiaoyu drew, in addition to three front rooms and four back rooms, there was also a wall built in the middle, and behind the wall, there was another courtyard with the same style.


    Two back-to-back courtyards are separated by a wall. Each has its own front door. A small door is opened next to the dividing wall, connecting the two courtyards and forming a deep mansion.


    Gu Jinli nodded: "Uncle Luo is right, these are two yards. Ournd is big, so it doesn''t matter if we build an extra yard. When the timees, the four rooms in the front bunk will be for the guys to live in, and the yard behind will be for us. Living by yourself is convenient, safe and quiet.


    Xiaoyu, what are you saying, we need to hire a waiter? Ms. Chen called out, shaking her head and saying, Why waste that money? We have hands and feet, and we can do any work ourselves.


    Mrs. Chen is reluctant to spend money to hire a man. If she really wants to hire a man, give her the money and she will work hard.


    Gu Jinli said: "It''s not necessary to hire a waiter. I just need to prepare the house first. The main reason is to truly separate the front bunk from the back house and prevent the people in the front bunk from disturbing our lives."


    The third grandma nodded when she heard this: "We should really separate the front bunk from the back house. We live in the back house ourselves and there is a girl''s family there. The front bunk is for business. There are many peopleing here, so it''s better to separate them."


    Aunt Tian said: "This shop has an extra yard. It will cost a lot of money, right?"


    Although the family has been allocated a lot of money, it still needs to buy fields, build houses, and save money for the second wife to marry, but it cannot be spent randomly.


    Gu Jinan has already calcted: "Now it costs fifty taels to build a brick house. If we build an extra yard, the price will double to one hundred taels. Plus the money for digging a well, the total will cost one hundred and twenty-five taels." two."


    Third Grandpa looked at the adults and said, "It''s almost the same as the budget we used to buy a shop. If you don''t have any objections, Dashan and Dafu will find someone tomorrow, and we''ll build the shop quickly."


    The family has always listened to the third grandfather, so naturally they will not object: "Hey, I listen to you."


    The next day, after Gu Dashan finished his work in the workshop, he called Gu Dafu and followed He Shiliu to Yanfu Vige.


    He Shiliu was looking for stones to sell. Over the years, he traveled to many ces and visited Yanfu Vige several times. He also wanted to make friends with the Gu family, so he rmended himself to guide them.


    On the way, He Shiliu said to them: "In Qingfu Town, only Yanfu Vige sells green bricks. There is also a team of more than ten masons in their vige. If you want to build a shop, just go to Yanfu Vige."


    "Yuan Laorong from Yanfu Vige is a capable man. When he was a child, his family was extremely poor, but he was a thief. He knew that rich olddies like to go to Taoist temples to offer incense, so he went to the Taoist temple with a broken bowl. Kneel down and beg for food on the road.
