Chapter 275
: One Hundred and Eight Peru
Although for merchants in this time and space, there are mountains of gold and silver in Longkou and they keep borrowing countless huge sums of money, for Liu Peng, this kind of financial support is actually in the very early stage of the very early stage, with extremely low risks. Even if there is 100% of the collateral and guarantees, and it is under the absolute control of the patrol team and Gu Mengyu in Longkou Port, Gu Mengyu will only lend at most 50% of the collateral, and the loan can be recovered at any time to confiscate the collateral.
It is this extremely unreasonable and extremely unequal financial support that even Jiangnan merchants flocked in, and merchants who could not get financial support and could not borrow money were soon at a disadvantage in business competition.
Since Tang Shuijian was about to go to Longkou Jian General Account, Wu Menghui felt that an old businessman in Huang County, like him, would definitely get the support of Liu Peng and could borrow a large amount of silver from Liu Peng and Gu Mengyu. However, Tang Shuijian laughed: "What are you doing to borrow money? This old Tang family store has been operating for three generations for a full seventy years. Not to mention one main store, it is no problem to start two main stores in Longkou!"
For such a business family, the profits accumulated over the past few decades are neither dared to spend on consumption nor have a way to expand reproduction. In fact, the older the business family is, the more they understand the principle of "not showing off their wealth", and the Tang family is no exception. Over the past few decades, they have hidden countless jars of gold and silver under the ground at home.
If Wu Menghui hadn't promoted the soup to build a handful of soup, the money would not have been seen again. Now he had decided to dig out all the silver jars underground and set up a main store in Longkou that made the whole Huang County look at.
Your old Ma family can play Tie Lock Lianjiang, and I, Mr. Tang, can also play this trick!
Wu Menghui also laughed: "I knew you were rich. I originally wanted to ask Xuanshui to take you to Mr. Liu to take you to Mr. Liu, but now it seems that there is no need!"
But Tang Shuijian looked at Lu Xuanshui who was sitting behind to eat noodles with great interest: "I heard that Xuanshui, you have a deep friendship with Mr. Liu!"
Lu Xuanshui, who was behind, put down the noodle bowl: "Shopkeeper Tang, don't listen to nonsense. I have met Liu Shao a few times. The last time Zhao Ning led the thief to attack Liu Shao, I just went to report a letter to him, so Liu Shao not only rewarded me with something, but also praised me!"
The current Lu Xuanshui is already very different from the past Lu Xuanshui. The past Lu Xuanshui became the driver of the Wu family's car shop by chance. However, the current Lu Xuanshui is the driver of a car in the car shop, or it can be said that he is already a "leader" and "in charge of affairs", and a person in the car shop.
Therefore, the passage just now clearly means being humble, but it always means a bit proud when he says it, but no one thinks it is a sign of pride.
Who can have such a friendship with Liu Shao, now who is not successful!
Tang Shuijian also laughed: "Xiao Lu, we are old friends, I don't take care of you normally, please help me, please take me to see Mr. Liu!"
Lu Xuanshui couldn't help but say in surprise: "Lao Tang, aren't you not borrowing money from Mr. Liu?"
Tang Shuijian laughed out loud: "I have money in my hands, so I don't have to borrow money from Mr. Liu to get the Tang family account. I have made this money myself, but since I have to go to Longkou to get the Tang family account, how can I not see Mr. Liu? How can I not report to Mr. Liu? He nodded and I dared to buy land and buy a house to open a store."
Tang Shuijian has seen too many negative examples over the years. When he saw Lu Xuanshui, he was already a little moved and continued to make up for it: "Xiao Lu, when I look back on this matter, I will find a way to introduce a beautiful girl to be your little wife!"
Just introducing the "beautiful girl", Lu Xuanshui may not be moved enough, but "introducing a beautiful girl to be your little wife", Lu Xuanshui was really moved: "Okay, after eating noodles, let's go to Longkou together!"
But the group arrived at Longkou in anger and realized that not only Liu Peng was not in Longkou, but even Gu Mengyu was not in Longkou. Although Jiang Qingyue, Yang Guangwen and others were in Longkou, Jiang Qingyue was in charge of the patrol team and Yang Guangwen was in charge of the Huangshan Pavilion. Tang Shuijian felt that it was not suitable to talk to them now. Buying land in Longkou and buying houses and opening a store was the final say.
Fortunately, Lu Xuanshui and Liu Peng have a real life-and-death friendship, and the patrol team also remembered his extraordinary achievements. If it weren't for him reporting the news, many people would have disappeared now. Therefore, Lu Xuanshui quickly found a clear news: "I heard that it was the few grains that Chen Biexue tried to plant to be harvested. Mr. Liu and Miss Gu went over to see how the harvest was!"
Since I came, I naturally couldn't come in vain. Although there were more than 20 miles away from Gu Mengyu's experimental field, there were many mountain roads, Tang Shuijian immediately made up his mind and must do the work: "My brother Xuanshui has to greet his friends from the patrol team and ask them to lead me a way!"
It was a bit difficult to walk the mountain road for more than 20 miles, and after walking one mountain after another, Tang Shuijian felt it was really hard, but he also knew whether the old Tang family store could maintain it in his own hands. It depends on his performance.
Although there is a lot of gold and silver in the underground jar, it is money to save lives after all. The operation of the Tang family's old store is the real foundation of the Tang family. Without the Tang family's old store, the Tang family is the water without a source. Just as he thought that at this moment, a noise had already come from the front.
Now Lu Xuanshui is particularly sensitive to the voice. When he heard the noise, he was very alert to hold his scabbard and walked 20 or 30 steps before laughing: "It's Mr. Liu!"
His voice was a little excited, and his emotions infected everyone. Soon everyone accelerated their pace, and Tang Shuijian found that he seemed to have chosen a good time. Now Young Master Liu and Miss Gu are in a good mood.
It's not just good, Liu Peng and Gu Mengyu were talking and laughing, while Chen Biexue, who was dressed in mountain silk clothes, was so excited that she rolled in the land she had just harvested, and howled loudly trying to vent her excitement.
The dozen Changfeng team members around Liu Peng were also smiling happily, not knowing that they were happy. Lu Xuanshui often had contact with the patrol team members and quickly added: "It should be the crop introduced by Miss Gu that has a good harvest!"
Chen Biexue had rolled a few times over there and happened to run into Lu Xuanshui and the others. He hugged Lu Xuanshui directly: "Little Lu, are you here? Well, one hundred and eight, one hundred and eight! A full one hundred and eighty kilograms, this is really amazing!"
Lu Xuanshui didn't understand what Chen Biexue said. However, Tang Shui had been built for so many years and knew how to serve the marquis best. He immediately followed Chen Biexue's words and said: "It's a 180 kilogram per mu. This is really amazing! It's so amazing, it's impossible!"
For Dengzhou Prefecture, the yield of 180 kilograms per mu is indeed a very great. The Japanese in the Qing Dynasty once conducted an investigation into the Yantai area of Dengzhou Prefecture, and concluded that "if small manure is used alone on farmland, only three dou will be harvested per mu." Although "the southerners are suitable for the north, they are regarded as a dou", a market near Yantai weighs 38 kilograms, but the yield of 31 kilograms per mu is only 114 kilograms. Moreover, this is the result of popularizing the three-ripening system for two years. The output of Dengzhou Prefecture in the late Ming Dynasty will only be lower. In this case, the yield of 180 kilograms per mu is simply a miracle.
Chen Biexue was so happy that he couldn't find Bei because of this unexpected result. Now Tang Shuijian's compliment made him not know where he was. He felt hot all over and said repeatedly: "That's right, one acre of land is 180 kilograms, and Mr. Liu is still thinking carefully! Mr. Liu, we will have to have several acres of peanuts next year!"
"It's not a few acres, but a few acres!" Gu Mengyu thought more thoroughly: "There are some idle fields in Longkou, so we strive to get a few acres of sand!"
Several acres and several hectares are completely different concepts, and Chen Biexue became more and more happy: "Young Master Liu and his wife are thinking carefully!"
Lu Xuanshui asked curiously: "Mr. Liu, what kind of treasure do you plant? One acre of land can produce 180 kilograms."
He had a different relationship with Liu Peng, so he didn't talk around the bush, and Liu Peng smiled: "It's nothing. This year, Sister Qingyue found a few peanut seeds to sow, and found that it was quite suitable for the customs and conditions of Dengzhou. In addition, the weather was good, and the harvest was quite good."
Peanuts are not as simple as "it is quite suitable for Dengzhou's customs". Chen Biexue said excitedly now: "This baby is really good. The yield is still not low when planted in sand and soil, and she is full of treasures..."
Speaking of this, Chen Biexue suddenly shut up. Although he was surrounded by his own people and Lu Xuanshui was not an outsider, Lu Xuanshui brought Wu Menghui and Tang Shuijian today. However, Gu Mengyu recognized Tang Shuijian: "This is the boss Tang from the old Tang family store. He used to take good care of our family and was his own!"
When Gu Mengyu said this, Tang Shuijian was relieved. Tang Shuijian's grain store and Tang Shuijian were on the same street. Therefore, he had some contact with Gu Mengyu in the past. If he could help, he would try his best to help. However, "Take a lot of care for our family" would definitely not be able to say, so he bowed very gratefully: "Tang Shuijian has met Miss Gu. He has been taken care of by you in the past, and I will also have to trouble Miss Gu in the future!"
When Liu Peng saw that Tang Shuijian and Gu Mengyu were old acquaintances, he immediately laughed and interrupted the topic just now: "Boss Tang is his own person, so Brother Chen doesn't have to be taboo to speak!"
Chen Biexue then continued: "It's true that it's a treasure. It's great to use this vine to raise pigs and mules. And the most important thing is that it costs about 180 kilograms per acre, and..."
