“Selling wine?”

"You mean selling wine?"

After a moment, Princess Linglong looked strange.

Not only did the girl look strange, but the two maids next to her were also stunned. The master and servant looked at each other and suddenly shook their heads together.

Princess Linglong first gave up: "No, no, definitely not. I still think it's a business that makes money. It turns out that what you want to do is sell wine."

The little maid Doudou also nodded and said, "Mr. Guo, please change your career. You really don't make money. Even a little girl, I, know."

Another maid Dingdang followed and said, "So too."

However, Guo Ziyi smiled slightly and said, "Did you hear it wrong? What I said is brewing wine is not selling wine."

"That's not the same?"

The master and servant blinked their eyes, and Linglong said indifferently: "The wine must be sold. Is there any difference?"

Guo Ziyi had no choice but to say, "Okay, you guys tell me first, why do you think you can't do it when I mention selling wine?"

"Because you don't make money!"

"Because there is no food."

The answer was Linglong, who did not make money, and the two little maids answered that there was no food. Then the master and servant looked at each other again, and then they reconciled their words and said, "The world is short of food and cannot make wine."

Linglong even went further and analyzed in detail: "Now the world is full of chaos, and the people cannot even eat enough food, which shows how shortage of food is. Do you know how expensive food is? You actually use food to make wine..."

But Guo Ziyi shook his head slightly and said, "You are wrong. The world is not short of food."

Linglong was stunned for a moment and said angrily: "The people starve to death everywhere. You actually said that the world is not short of food? Guo Ziyi, I misunderstood you. I thought you were a man and would sympathize with the people in my heart."

"My right, the world is not short of food." Guo Ziyi said in a tough tone and said in a deep voice: "No matter how many people starve to death, I still want to say that the world is not short of food."

This time, without waiting for Linglong to refute, he spoke directly: "You are saying that the world lacks food because you see the people starve to death, but have you ever thought that the people starve to death because of famine?"

Linglong was stunned, as if thinking, murmured: "When you said this, I suddenly remembered that my grandfather once said that in the past twenty years, it has been a good weather. Not to mention a major disaster, even small floods and droughts are rare, let alone locust disasters. That thing has not been raging for fifty years."

She said, frowned and murmured again: "But why? The people are short of food."

Guo Ziyi smiled coldly and said, "The people lack food, not because of famine, but because of the loss of land. The biggest root cause is the loss of land."

"But these lands are not deserted, on the contrary, crops grow in every piece of land. For example, when I came from Chang'an to Langya, I saw that I had never seen any land idle. It was lush everywhere, which made me feel joy in my heart."

"However, this joy lasted for only a moment, and soon turned into a sadness with a clogged chest."

"Because I suddenly realized that no matter how much food is, it has nothing to do with the people. It is the land of aristocratic families, and the land is the crops of aristocratic families. So even if the grain is harvested every year, the people will still starve to death when they should starve."

When Guo Ziyi said this, he lifted the curtain of the carriage and pointed to the fields outside and said, "Look at what crops are growing very well? Will there be a bumper harvest in autumn?"

The master and servant turned their little heads together, but they all lit their little heads.

Guo Ziyi sighed and said, "Then tell me, who are the owners of these crops?"

Linglong first pursed her lips and said with a pretty face a little embarrassedly: "There is a place of fertile land within three miles outside the city. As the governor of Langya County, my father must have occupied some."

The little maid Doudou followed and said, "But my master doesn't occupy much, and the total is only 20,000 acres. The Wang family of Langya is so powerful. His family's land is at least hundreds of thousands, and all of them are large acres, and many of them are water-watered fields of Tianzi."

This girl is obviously a person who likes land, and her tone is full of envy when she speaks.

Another little maid, Dingdang blinked and said softly: "There are also Langya Yan family, Langya Zhuge family, Langya Xu family..."

The girl obviously couldn't figure it out, and finally shed her little head in a dismay and said, "In short, there are more than a dozen big families, almost every family has a lot of land. There are many, many, especially many."

Guo Ziyi nodded and suddenly said, "If these families add up, how much land they occupy?"

This question is a bit difficult, and the two little maids can't answer it.

But Princess Linglong lowered her little head and said with a sound like a mosquito and flies: "More than 50% of the land in the county can cost at least 10 million acres."

Guo Ziyi sneered and mocked: "I'm afraid it's more. You girl like to lie the most."

Linglong pursed her lips and changed her mouth embarrassedly: "About 70%, I didn't lie to you this time."

Guo Ziyi said angrily: "If you look at me in the eyes, you can say it again."

Linglong was also angry, turned her head and said angrily: "Ninety percent, okay? But my family only occupied 20,000 acres, which was not considered plundering the people."

Guo Ziyi shouted and said, "So you are worried that I will blame you. You can keep your heart in your stomach. As a county magistrate, your father only occupied 20,000 acres of land. If he compares with others, he is definitely a good official with a conscience."

"What I really want to say is the wealthy families that occupy a lot of land."

"It is precisely because of their plunder and the annexation of the land of the people, that the people are suffering more and more. Although the weather is good, countless people starve to death."

"Now you tell me again, is the world short of food?"

Linglong slowly raised her head and said solemnly: "No, no shortage, no shortage. For example, in my grain warehouse, there are tens of thousands of stones of grain all year round. In order to prevent insects or mold, people have to be hired to dry it every once in a while."

Guo Ziyi sighed and said, "Your family only has 20,000 acres of land, and you are already full of food and worry about mold. From this we can infer how much grain the wealthy families have. I'm afraid it's not just moldy, but even piled up to rot."

"That's why I said, I want to make wine. This is very expensive and the people will definitely not be able to afford it, but what about the wealthy families? What they care about is drinking and enjoying themselves."

"As long as we can make a good wine, and then use a very legendary gimmick, and then through various exaggerated publicity, all the wealthy families will fall into the trap."

"When the time comes, they will buy our wine, and we will buy their food. Because the price of wine will definitely be higher than the price of grain, the bigger our business is, the more profitable it is..."

"With more money, we can recruit inspections in large quantities, namely inspections, but in fact, private soldiers. When the private soldiers reach a certain number and we still have huge amounts of funds in our hands. Are we full of confidence at that time? Can we withdraw the hidden batch of weapons?"

When Princess Linglong heard this, she couldn't help but shine and said, "We have soldiers, money, and military equipment. The most important thing is not to plunder the people, but to start from the wealthy families. In this way, both my grandfather and my father will turn a blind eye. They will even secretly support you and help you get a legitimate military position."

"Wow, Guo Ziyi, it turns out that you are not stupid at all, but you are as smart as an old ghost. It's over, and I suddenly have no confidence to catch you."

"What should I do, what should I do."

"How about I'll give you a baby now and let you be my father?"

Guo Ziyi was furious and said, "How many times have you told you, don't always do this. If you want to join the group, just say it. I'm going to buy you a share."

Linglong was immediately excited, and her pretty face came over and said anxiously: "Then tell me quickly, how to brew this wine? And how can you achieve exaggerated publicity? And, will it really make huge profits when selling wine?"

Guo Ziyi raised her head slightly and said proudly: "I used to be a big anchor with twenty fans. Will I just mention this kind of thing to others?"

"As for whether selling alcohol is profitable, even a fool knows this. I once had a friend from Panga in my hometown, and it was really a matter of not wanting to sell alcohol. If this matter is not profitable, who would use his face as a butt?"

"Hmph, just wait and see. I don't look down on the wealthy families in Langya, nor do I target any aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty. What I want to say is that they have one, and they don't know what the script of a big anchor is..."

"Not only do I want to earn their money, I also want them to cry and beg me to earn."

...

...There is another chapter in the evening, and the protagonist begins to take the road to harvest this era. A young anchor with twenty fans in later generations could also treat people as fools in ancient times. Alas, there is no way, there are too many scripts of anchors who have seen them.
