Chapter 399 Life is a lifetime, grass and trees spring, come like spring rain, go like dust
Chapter 399: Life is like a spring in the grass and trees. It comes like spring rain and goes like wind and dust.
Digging out fine iron from Broken Finger Mountain is a big deal.
Calculate carefully... The majority of the annual revenue of Youjian Villa comes from the blacksmith shop managed by Lu Lingqi. During the war years, the price of arms remained high.
This also made Yi Xiaotian sell the refined steel at sky-high prices...
The key is that with Brother Bao's help, Cao Cao bought a steel gun and a steel halberd at a high price, which made Yi Xiaotian doubt that he might have met a fake Cao Cao, right?
The fake Cao Cao who is stupid and rich in money.
Of course... this involves huge costs. Although Brother Hao gave all the iron and iron in Xiapi City to Yi Xiaotian, after all, the place where the iron and iron is mined belongs to the imperial court. To put it bluntly, it belongs to Cao Cao
of.
Yi Xiaotian still needs to pay some expenses based on the market price.
But the iron iron in Duanzhi Mountain in Yecheng is completely different. It belongs entirely to Yi Xiaotian. It's like running a mill out of picked wheat. It's nothing but profit!
Yi Xiaotian also truly realized the all-round, one-stop service from iron mining to steel pouring to forging weapons...profits more than doubled.
certainly…
This matter needs to be kept low-key. As the saying goes, don't be too arrogant in life and be careful about getting a steel knife in the back. This is what it means.
For this reason, both Yi Xiaotian and Guo Jia kept the matter of digging out the iron from Broken Finger Mountain tightly, for fear that it would get out and be remembered by villains...
only…
After all, paper can't cover up the fire, and this explosive news still spread like wildfire, quietly spreading among a small circle of rich and powerful people.
…
People feel refreshed when happy events occur.
Yi Xiaotian has been very relaxed recently. Apart from sunbathing, he also goes shopping with Zhen Luo. Occasionally he wants to show off and recites a few Tang poems and Song lyrics at random, which attracts Zhen Luo's admiration...
As for Broken Finger Mountain, Guo Jia has been fully responsible for it.
Guo Jia's brain is one of the smartest in the world, and he is simply more reliable in doing things than Yi Xiaotian himself.
Speaking of which, Zhen Luo's cooking skills are really amazing.
She never expected that Zhen Luo, who came from a young lady, would be so talented in cooking. Yi Xiaotian casually described several methods, and Zhen Luo was able to master them and cook a large table of delicious dishes!
You know, in the Han Dynasty, most meals were steamed... stir-fried or braised, it was all nonsense.
Even under such restrictions, Zhen Luo still showed strong learning ability and creativity...
It is unknown whether Yi Xiaotian's body was captured by her. At the very least, his stomach was deeply impressed by Zhen Luo's dishes.
Even when he had nothing to do, Yi Xiaotian accompanied Zhen Luo to the market to buy vegetables...
Of course...it seems that the appearance of Yi Xiaotian always causes a sensation in the streets and alleys.
Everyone was talking a lot...
Countless men are filled with envy in their eyes. Look at her, she has a lot of money, three manors in her hands, and a beautiful woman by her side. She is like a winner in life. Sure enough...if you have money, you can do whatever you want.
Countless women looked at Zhen Luo with cold eyes. They were envious and jealous. How could such a stupid brother with so much money just...just...just take advantage of the daughter of the Zhen family? Isn't it just cooking...don't
Speaking of cooking, if they can get the favor of this silly brother Yi Xiaotian... they will even cook chicken.
Yi Xiaotian is used to these words... As the saying goes, others laugh at me because I am too crazy, but others cannot see through my laughter. Everyone can talk about whatever they like. Yi Xiaotian should get rich and continue to get rich, and everyone should go their separate ways.
Well!
After shopping for groceries... Yi Xiaotian and Zhen Luo were planning to return to Youjian Villa.
Sudden…
A middle-aged man and a young man walked over with smiling faces.
When the two people saw Yi Xiaotian, they immediately became happy and their eyes shone...
"Nephew Yi Xian, hello..."
The person speaking was none other than Xu You, who was currently very popular in Yecheng, and the one beside him was naturally his good nephew Xu Yuan.
Instead of being arrogant when talking to others, Xu You and Xu Yuan greeted Yi Xiaotian with smiles on their faces...
From the bottom of their hearts, they were grateful to Yi Xiaotian. Not only had they made a lot of money, but Broken Zhishan's ridicule had been successfully transferred away. Oh, from the bottom of their hearts, Xu You felt a little towards Yi Xiaotian.
Guilt.
Yi Xiaotian smiled at them.
They also smiled at Yi Xiaotian.
Yi Xiaotian laughed at these two invincible fools.
They both also laughed at Yi Xiaotian for being a fool and a rich man.
The whole atmosphere became a little weird over time.
Yi Xiaotian didn't have time to fool around with them. If he had time, he would go back early to eat the delicious dishes cooked by Luo Er. "Oh, it turns out it's Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, long time no see..."
"Hey, Young Master Yi and Miss Zhen Luo are doing the grocery shopping themselves?" Xu You looked at Yi Xiaotian, and also at Zhen Luo. "The grocery shopping and cooking are all done by servants, how can you do it yourself?"
What to do?"
Speaking of which... Xu You patted Yi Xiaotian on the shoulder. "Let's go, ahead is the Jubin Building. The food is very delicious. My uncle is the host. I'll treat you to a nice meal at noon today!"
hehe…
Yi Xiaotian said "haha", and he didn't know where Xu You got the confidence.
The cuisine at Jubinlou is not even close to that of a restaurant, let alone... with Luoer's cooking skills, it's like the fire of a firefly competing with the sun and the moon, you are overestimating your abilities!
Yi Xiaotian answered simply. "No, no!"
Hearing this... Xu You paused for a moment, wondering whether Yi Xiaotian had been laughed at a lot in the streets of Yecheng during this period, and he had become taciturn and weird.
It seems...thinking back to those days...
When the Xu family bought Broken Finger Mountain, they were ridiculed by the neighbors. Isn't this the same way?
Xu You came forward affectionately again, and once again touched Yi Xiaotian's shoulder passionately, still smiling.
"My dear nephew, my uncle has good intentions. Seeing that you have lost a lot of weight, I would like to treat you to a good meal... Don't worry, go to the Jubin Building. You can order as much fish and meat as you like, bird's nests, and shark's fins. They will all be mine. All the vegetation will be mine for the rest of your life."
Spring comes like spring rain and goes like wind and dust, so you have to look away from everything."
hehe…
Yi Xiaotian chuckled again and shook his head. "I accept Mr. Xu's kindness. I like to eat vegetables..."
As soon as I said this...
Xu Yuan on the side agreed repeatedly. "Green vegetables are good, green vegetables are good. Eat more vegetables to be healthy..." At this point, Xu Yuan directly changed the topic to business. "By the way, Mr. Yi... I heard that you and Zhen recently
My son-in-law is here with me... digging the Broken Finger Mountain?"
When Xu Yuan spoke, he smiled.
Although their relationship with the Xu family was not good, they were fairly well-informed.
Of course, they did not find out the inside information that iron ore had been dug out of Broken Finger Mountain.
From the curious expressions of Xu You and Xu Yuan, Yi Xiaotian can also tell this...
Yi Xiaotian nodded and smiled slightly. "What's the matter? I spend 30,000 gold to buy a piece of barren mountain? Isn't it possible to dig some rocks to restore health?"
this…
Xu You and Xu Yuan were stunned. They didn't care about Yi Xiaotian digging stones.
Do they think how much money can they get back by digging out rocks and selling them? Although Yi Xiaotian already owns three villas, it seems that... his IQ is not suitable for business!
Xu You and Xu Yuan were still wondering whether they could dig out some new money from Yi Xiaotian.
For example... I heard that just by digging, Yi Xiaotian smashed in another 20,000 gold. Damn it, if this gold is wasted, why not give them a Xu family!
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Xu You smiled. After all, he still had a little conscience, or in other words, he had a little bit of guilt... After all, he had already earned Yi Xiaotian 30,000 gold. It was understandable that he would get a few thousand gold back after selling the pebbles.
…That’s understandable!
Thinking of this, Xu You patted Yi Xiaotian's shoulder again, and also helped him tidy up his clothes...
"My nephew, don't be tired. Your health must come first... Also, I wish your nephew to make a lot of money from selling stones and make a lot of money! Finally... everything must be seen clearly.
, not all businesses can make money! Sometimes, it’s good to spend money to buy a lesson, my dear nephew, you are still very young!”
After saying this, Xu You looked at Xu Yuan, and Xu Yuan looked at Xu You. The two looked at each other, their eyes full of ridicule towards Yi Xiaotian.
"Oh..." Yi Xiaotian replied nonchalantly, gave Zhen Luo a look, and was about to leave.
I never thought that at this moment...
A carriage drove over, and a merchant stepped out of the carriage. He was dressed in luxurious clothes. His whole face was full of calculations, but he was not ugly...
Yi Xiaotian, Zhen Luo, Xu You, Xu Yuan are all familiar with this person...
He's an old acquaintance... He's Zhen Yan, the second son of the Zhen family!
The originally handsome cheeks seemed to be very excited, and the facial features were pressed together tightly, giving it a somewhat ferocious look.
After getting off the carriage, Zhen Yan went straight to Yi Xiaotian...
