There is a notice board outside Baisha Village. Next to the notice board is a wooden board with various strange symbols written on it. When businessmen from other places see it, most of them will come over to inquire.
Because the bulletin board is similar to a slanderous tree, many people think that the mayor of Baisha Village was very ambitious back then.
The reason is also very simple. The slanderous wood is a beautiful watch. Who dares to build a beautiful watch? Who doesn't have a thousand cars?
"Wall Calendar."
"Calendar?"
“Isn’t the calendar hanging there just a wall calendar?”
"calendar?"
"right……"
In response to the curiosity of out-of-town businessmen, the people in Baisha Village explained it enthusiastically at first, but then lost interest, and finally almost felt like vomiting when they heard the questions. It didn't take a year, but they almost went crazy in a few months.
But Baisha Village's calendar soon spread, and many businessmen from other places would copy the format of the calendar to make it easier to time their travels.
As beekeepers from Yinxiang began to walk along the Yangtze River, nobles from various countries in the Jianghuai region sent their own caravans to Yinxiang to purchase honey.
This is partly due to the publicity of Biyangzi, and Tanzhuangzi also praised it. Yinxiang honey is still very popular in the East China Sea and Huaisi area.
Mainly because of the high output and the fact that the wild honey controlled by the "Huaiyi" themselves was basically looted by Li Jie and his men. The largest honey merchant in the entire Yangtze River estuary area was Baisha Village.
Honey is collected in Baisha Village once every seven to ten days. Using a hand-centrifuged centrifuge greatly improves the efficiency of honey collection and does not cause much harm to the bees.
Last year, the flowering period was not very close, but a group of bees still produced more than ten kilograms of honey.
However, the number of bee colonies Li Jie has at hand is quite large. The beekeeper team alone has more than a thousand people. Under the banner of "Lord of the Hundred Sands", they are invincible in the "Sand Wilds" area.
As long as the beekeepers in Baisha Village want to collect honey, no one dares to stop them.
In the rare cases where beekeepers are attacked in the wild, it is because the beekeeper went too far into the forest area and encountered a wild tiger, a tigress with cubs.
Then the unlucky beekeeper died.
But generally speaking, beekeepers can ensure honey production, but the main cost is physical exertion. Chasing nectar is not easy.
Fortunately, the Yangtze River Estuary was densely networked at this time, and the main means of transportation for beekeepers was boats. Generally speaking, this did not destroy the characteristics of native bees that like to be quiet and collect nectar in a small area.
Occasionally some bees escape and swarm in the wild, but overall the effect is good.
Gusu "Baisi" purchases a large amount of honey from Yinxiang every month. Together with beeswax, a hard currency that is harder than gold, Yinxiang has a large profit balance just through honey trading.
Dan's two uncles, with their current talents, are no longer able to manage the very large "Buku" and "money bank". The people who replaced Uncle A and Uncle B were Dan's little brothers.
Diao originally wanted to be a warrior, but he couldn't defeat Shahen and Shaha; later he wanted to be a general, but he couldn't even draw a map as well as Shadong; then he wanted to be a special brave man, but even now his food tastes like donkey spirit...
…
Later, Li Jie became Jiang Yinzi, the kind of big man who could speak to the king of Suzhou. Sha Diao had an epiphany in an instant.
Because at that time, the king sent someone to give his sister a wife.
At this time, Sha Diao realized, my brother-in-law is so powerful, why should I rely on my talent to make a living?
I can obviously rely on connections!
Anyway, you can’t compete with others with your talent, so it’s natural to compete with others!
Then Sha Diao took over from the two uncles and was responsible for managing the brother-in-law's private property.
On weekdays, he was asked to go to military training, and he still went, but it was with a very strong purpose, just to keep fit. Then he learned advanced mathematical knowledge, so that accounting would be easier.
After replacing Uncle A and Uncle B, Sha Diao realized for the first time how rich a person could be.
The entire "sand field" can be bought easily without going through a fight.
The kind that includes people and land, buys it all, and can get the Suzhou certificate.
"A Diao, I came to Jiangyin just to buy more seeds."
"Spring plowing is approaching, and Jiangyin has no spare capacity."
"What should we do? Pheasant County mostly grows mulberry and hemp, some beans and wheat, and there is really too little rice."
"Brother Kun said that once the water conservancy in Pheasant County is not prosperous, we need to plant more rice."
With that said, Sha Diao said to Uncle Pheasant Changwei who came to Baisha Village, "Uncle Pheasant should know that now that Brother Kun has made a decision, he shouldn't bother with it anymore, otherwise... you know."
"I understand, I understand, I understand..."
Uncle Pheasant nodded repeatedly and smiled flatteringly, "I am here just to be a lobbyist for my fellow villagers. Ah Diao should also know that."
"I heard something about Donglu City. However, there are no rice seeds. If you really want to survive this spring, you can hunt wild animals and get furs."
"How much is the leather purchased by Baisha worth?"
“They are all good prices.”
Sha Diao didn't speak accurately. Ever since he helped his brother-in-law take care of his private treasury, Sha Diao found that his words were becoming less and less accurate. He had always been ambiguous.
Hearing Sha Diao's answer, Uncle Pheasant Changwei nodded slightly, and then said: "Then change more food, but in autumn and winter, life in Jiangbei will be difficult."
"Uncle Pheasant has no worries. Brother Kun has already made arrangements. After the spring floods, he will send someone to take charge of the water conservancy in Pheasant."
"This... Pheasant is a small and weak city with no small population."
"This is not something Uncle Pheasant wants to think about."
"yes……"
Seeing the stern look on Sha Diao's face, Uncle Pheasant Changwei immediately didn't dare to talk nonsense. The boy in front of him was completely different from before.
She used to be a stupid kid, but now she is different. She is Jiang Yinzi's personal housekeeper, and her sister is also Jiang Yinzi's official wife.
Even if I look down on this stupid kid in my heart, I don't dare to show anything inappropriate on my face. If I dare to criticize him, I will offend Li Jie and King Wu.
Who said that Sha Diao’s brother-in-law is a macho man named Wang, and Sha Diao’s sister is his wife!
Being powerful means you can do whatever you want.
Although he did not get accurate information from Sha Diao, Uncle Pheasant Changwei still had some idea in his mind, knowing that Jiangyinzi would not leave Jiangbei Eryi alone this year.
At least the area around Pheasant must be well managed.
With such news, Uncle Pheasant Changwei left Baisha Village happily. After he left, Sha Diao ran to Li Jie to report it.
"Longtail is gone?"
"Just left."
"Keep an eye on Pheasant and Donglu, and wait until they are short of food, then use food to exchange for their population."
"Yes, brother Kun, don't worry, I have written this down."
"After the spring floods pass, I will ask people to organize efforts and go to Pheasant. Calculating the stragglers in Huaiyi at this time, we should stop and arrest them. I estimate that tens of thousands of them will be fine."
At this point, Li Jie said, "You have also learned how to break up the slaves. When the time comes for Pheasant to expand its farmland, I will leave it to you. As long as Pheasant is managed properly, it will not be difficult to find a Pheasant doctor for you."
.”
"yes!"
Hearing that my brother-in-law was actually offering such a sweet treat, the sand sculpture became excited and smiled like a sand sculpture.
After the idiot left in a daze, Li Jiecai shook his head and said to his wife: "Dan, we are all born to the same parents. Why are you so smart and the idiot so easy to deceive?"
"I'm also easy to fool."
Dan smiled slightly while embroidering on the white silk, lowered his head and whispered in response.
"I do not believe……"
When County Magistrate Li saw his wife smiling so sweetly, he suddenly felt very confused. He leaned over and hugged Mei Dan in his arms. He was very tired for a while, and then said, "Tell me, why are you so easy to deceive?"
"
"What did Ajie say to me when I took him home?"
"What did I say then?"
"Ah Jie said it's cold, so you have to hug me to feel the warmth..."
"That's right."
"Just give me a hug and don't move if you tell me."
"I didn't move."
"You said you would..."
Meidan's face turned red and she was about to continue speaking, but was blocked by her husband. After a while, the work of being a prostitute was thrown away without even knowing where it was.
"Heh, heh..." He recovered from his suffocation and breathed in the fresh air. Dan lowered his voice and said hastily, "It's still daytime, how can you be rude?"
"I'm just going to kiss you, why don't you do anything else?"
"..."
Hearing her husband's shameless words, Dan wrinkled her nose and glared at him, "You said the same thing back then..."
