Chapter 20 Salt and Iron Tea Wine

This week is coming to an end, and the book is on the list. Please support me with tips, collections, recommendations, clicks, comments, etc.!



What made Li Anran quite funny was that in addition to selling barbecued pork for more than 2,000 yuan and selling sugar candies for more than 50,000 yuan, the big shot whose life was saved by Ren Dan also gave him a very "light" letter.

Xie Yi, one hundred strings.

When facing this thank you, Li Anran thought that it seemed that this big shot's status was not very good, and he was only worth a hundred coins. However, since the money had been sent, there was no reason to return it.

.As for why this thing happened by such a coincidence, Rendan was made and saved the other party's life. Li Anran just smiled, neither saying he believed it nor saying he didn't believe it, that was all.

After figuring out the transaction and counting the copper coins on the table, Li Anran took over the financial power as a matter of course, took out a pen and paper and calculated the accounts in front of the four members of the Zhao family.

In fact, Li Anran also knew that with his unsupportable dominant position in this matter, there was no need to settle any accounts at all, and it was not up to him to decide how much should be paid. But since it was a cooperation, naturally he had to settle the accounts more clearly to be justified.

What's more, Li Anran really didn't take this small amount of money seriously.

After deducting all costs, including the upfront investment of the wild boar and Zhao Da and Zhao Er, the profit from this transaction was around 48 guan. This profit did not cover the 100 guan Xie Yi. In order to settle accounts, Li

Enron didn't care about the little bits and pieces, and calculated the large sum as a profit of fifty pounds.

According to the thirty-seven points agreed upon at the beginning, the three points for fifty guan would be fifteen guan. After confirming this number with Zhao Da and Zhao Ersi, they pushed the interest of 15 guan without cost on the spot.

At the beginning, Zhao Da, Zhao Er and the others were a little embarrassed to take it. In the end, Li Anran took the lead and put his share back into the basket and put it at his feet, and then the two families divided the fifteen coins.

Originally, Li Anran wanted to invest the money directly into the next plan, but considering that Zhao Da and Zhao Er had contributed both capital and effort after following him, he couldn't let others see that he had no hope at all. More importantly,

I still feel that these are just small amounts of money. Hongfu Tower, Tongfuji, and the big shot whose life was saved by Rendan are all waiting to get money to buy their own formulas.

Li Anran knows very well that once these three recipes can be sold, even if it is impossible to sell at the highest price, the start-up capital needed for his development in Datang will no longer be a problem. And whether it is barbecued pork or not

Okay, let's continue making snow candies. With the current manpower and equipment, even if they work around the clock, the output is limited. In addition, the principle of scarcity makes things more expensive, so there is no need to be so tired.

In a harmonious atmosphere, Zhao Da and Zhao's two families each took 7,500 yuan. Looking at the four smiling faces that had lost sight of their teeth, Li Anxin felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Although this amount of money is not much, for the Zhao brothers, who were struggling on the poverty line just a few days ago, it is already a huge sum of money that can make them ecstatic, not to mention that this money is still

If you keep flowing slowly, you will make money every day.

Looking at the basket of copper coins at his feet, Li Anran shook his head. Fortunately, the big shot didn't come to join in the fun and gave him a hundred taels of silver cake instead of copper coins. Otherwise, he would really have to worry about where to put so much money.

It will attract thieves.

Regarding the intention of Hongfulou and Tongfuji to acquire the formula, Li Anran was not in a hurry to respond. After dividing the "dirty", he opened the door and ordered the meal to be served with the expectant eyes of the little ones. This time it was dinner.

But there was no wild boar meat again. In addition to using the remaining big bone soup as the soup base and making the soup with herring fish heads, tofu and wild vegetables, all the dishes were made from the river fresh fish caught by Goudan and the others in the past two days.

Unfortunately, there is no suitable wok, so these dishes can only be cooked by stewing, boiling, steaming, and frying. But even so, so many dishes still make everyone smile.

Loach and tofu, braised eel with bacon, fried small fish, and a pot of drunken shrimp made with the good wine I bought before, as well as a simple version of boiled fish fillet, braised fish in water, and also because of incomplete seasoning

And simplify

Li Anran originally thought of eating the four pig trotters, but he didn't expect that there happened to be two pregnant women in the village who couldn't breastfeed, and the four pig trotters were finally captured by the two families with eggs and eggs.

The fish and shrimp were replaced.

The original pig head was kept, but Li Anran was not in a hurry to eat it. Instead, he asked Zhao's second daughter-in-law to carefully remove the hair, and then used big bone soup to cook it, and mixed the brine to marinate it.

When making saliva chicken, in order to make the chicken taste smoother and more tender, Li Anran secretly used alum sent from Changchun Hall to make ice in front of Zhao Dazhao and Zhao Er's family. As a result, he was regarded as

Refers to the "spell" that turns water into ice.

Li Anran did not expose such misunderstandings. Appropriately revealing some miraculous abilities can not only maintain his own mystery, but also make people sober and clear-headed, so as to avoid doing something that they will regret for life because of huge benefits.

Although in ancient times there was a etiquette of silent eating and silent sleeping, but for the people living at the bottom of society, there were not so many rules. So, taking the opportunity of dinner, Li Anran said one thing.

"Zhao Da, Zhao Er, how do these dishes taste?"

"tasty!"

"Yes!"

Listening to the extremely simple words of the two people, Li Anran smiled and said: "I plan to open a wine shop in the county town. What do you think?"

"Liquor... wine shop?"

Zhao Da and Zhao Er, who heard about this for the first time, looked at each other and didn't know what opinions they should express. They were dumbfounded at the moment.

"Zhao Er, you and I have a life-saving grace. I want to ask you, are you willing to work with me? You don't have to sign a contract of prostitution, just like a hired shop assistant."

"Of course, you can also refuse. Don't worry, listen to me first." At this point, as Zhao Er was about to speak, Li Anran waved his hand and said:

"The snow candy matter is too involved. It will be difficult for you to keep this recipe with your status. I plan to sell this recipe at a high price and still give you a 30% profit."

"As for your future life, in addition to barbecue, the smoking and pickling methods I taught you before, as well as the ramen method, are enough to make you a little rich."

"If you are willing to stay with me, you will certainly not be disadvantaged in terms of wages, but with your current abilities you are not qualified to be a shopkeeper, so you can only start from a low level."

"And Zhao Da, you are Zhao Er's brother. After getting in touch with each other in the past few days, I also know that you two brothers have a very good relationship. I will treat you equally."

"This matter is also of great importance to you. There is no need to rush to give me an answer. It is better to discuss it carefully with your family as to how to choose."

Having said this, Li Anran ignored the complicated look in Zhao Da and Zhao Er's eyes, but picked up the wine bowl in front of him and tasted the wine of this era happily.

For Li Anran, who has been learning winemaking from his grandfather Li Guizhen since he was a child, whether it is the rice wine he drinks now or the Sanler paste he used to soak shrimps in the past, the strength and taste are really average.

Especially this Sanlejiang, which is said to be the strongest wine in the Tang Dynasty. But it only uses three fermentation techniques. It is good if the alcohol content can reach more than 30 degrees. It is far from the strong wine Li Anran has drunk.

Too far apart.

In fact, one of the most common ways to make money in novels that travel back to ancient times is to make wine. Unfortunately, those authors forgot one thing. In ancient times, salt, iron, tea, and wine were all sensitive materials. Salt and iron were

Needless to say, if ordinary people dare to touch the foundation of a country, there is no need for people from above to take action. There will naturally be n number of people below willing to clean up these "trouble".

As for tea and wine, although they are far less sensitive than salt and iron, tea is an indispensable thing in life for herdsmen on the grasslands. It can dissolve greasiness, cleanse the stomach, and supplement vitamins.

.It is precisely because of this that many large trading houses will sell tea leaves to the grasslands and then exchange them for large numbers of cattle, sheep and even horses. It is not impossible for ordinary people to make a fortune in this business, but it is difficult to make it big.
