This Liu Zhi continued to keep his expressionless, only listening to the conversations of merchants, with a smile on his face, a calm look.

He didn't stand up until the crowd gradually dispersed.

If it was said that Liu Zhi just now was as quiet as a virgin, but now, he is as restless as a rabbit.

When doing business, you must be calm.

But to do business, you also have to act vigorously, but if you have thoughts and ideas in your heart, you must never look forward and backward, because once you look forward and backward, you will lose the opportunity.

He immediately approached his principal: "Have you heard about the matter of the prince and Zhou Tanzhi, the former Minister of Rites of Nanjing, raising pigs?"

"Yes, yes, this matter, everyone in Beijing, no one knows, no one knows."

Liu Zhi walked back and forth with his hands behind his back. He is one of the thirteen major commercial firms in Beijing. Although his wealth is far from that of giants like Qi Guogong and Wang Bushi, he is still in this shopping mall. Trembling.

Liu Zhi said: "Is there any other news?"

"Other news? Sir, what you are talking about..."

Liu Zhi said seriously: "Of course it's about their pig raising. It is said that their pigs have a high rate of slaughter?"

The chief thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, in fact, at the beginning, many people just wanted to see Rare. This prince is admirable. As for Zhou Tanzhi, not many people know him, but...they are very powerful. , two people, raising more than 70 pigs."

Liu Zhi gasped.

More than 70 pigs for two people?

And the slaughter rate is still so high.

Liu Zhi is in the business of catering. Many inns and restaurants are under his name. These years, the expansion has been extremely powerful. Naturally, he has also dealt with many food merchants.

In his opinion, two people can take care of thirty or forty pigs, which is the limit, and an experienced swineherd is needed.

And... There are too many variables in the path of this pig until it is slaughtered, and it may die at any time due to disease or other reasons.

In this year, even a human cannot guarantee adulthood, let alone a pig.

This high slaughter rate means high output.

Less manual labor means lower costs.

The lowest cost, the highest output was born.

"In recent years, the demand for meat has been getting higher and higher."

"Exactly." The chief nodded: "In the past few years, there have been more and more diners, and the expenses have been increasing year by year. Master, now, the common people have some bits and pieces of money in their hands, and they are willing to be satisfied once in a while." Appetite."

This is the truth. The Liu family's business is based on this. The business is getting bigger and bigger, and the wine shops and inns are constantly expanding.

Liu Zhi walked back and forth with his hands behind his back. He looked up thoughtfully, "Send someone to inquire, let's see how the prince and Zhou Tanzhi's pigs are raised, the old man thinks they must have What kind of secret recipe. But... we are not going to inquire about their secret recipe, the secret recipe...how long can it last? The most useful thing in this world is..."

Speaking of this, Liu Zhi pointed to his forehead: "The most useful thing is the brain."

"They have only been raising pigs for a long time, and they have discovered so many tricks that others don't know. It is really unimaginable. After observing them carefully, I have confirmed that the rumors in the market are true, and I will report back immediately. Don’t say it, do you understand?”

"I understand."

After listening to the master, he immediately went to make arrangements.

Liu Zhi, on the other hand, paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. This was his habit, but whenever he had to make a major decision, he would have to spend a day and a half hiding in his room, pacing back and forth, thinking about various possible situations, and Count the possibilities for the future.

...

Three days later, the chief came to report in a hurry: "The villain has inquired carefully, sir, it is exactly as the rumors say, these two people raise pigs in a different way, they must have used some recipe, those pigs, All of them are well-raised, and they are about to be slaughtered."

"A lot of people were amazed by it, right?" Liu Zhi blushed, but became nervous again, like a child holding a big ingot, afraid of being snatched away.

The principal shook his head: "In the beginning, they raised pigs, and everyone was curious about them, and many people watched them, but gradually, many people lost interest, and there were very few people who went to see them, sir..."

Liu Zhi cheered up: "I can't wait anymore. Go prepare the chariots and horses, the old man has to visit immediately, oh, by the way, prepare the name and edict for the old man, they are not ordinary people, so don't make too much publicity, the old man used to have If you have the public name of a scholar, you can change into a Confucian shirt and wear a Lun scarf, and the carriages and horses should be as simple as possible."

He squinted his eyes and continued to order: "Get ready."

…………

Man is an animal that easily adapts to the environment.

Slowly, whether it is Wang Ao or Zhou Tanzhi, when facing difficulties and gradually letting go of their former glory and pride, they are also slowly adapting.

Every morning, Zhou Tanzhi would count the pigs first.

Watching these pigs grow up gradually.

To a certain extent, Zhou Tanzhi also gradually began to experience the taste of joy.

He hasn't been sleeping well recently, and he has to take care of these feudal clans during the day, and at night, he needs to search for various books, referring to Ming Song and the guide to raising pigs to get rich, to constantly explore various methods of raising pigs.

At this time, he finally accepted the reality that his future was hopeless.

In the heart, although there is desolation, there is also unwillingness.

But gradually...he had no choice but to turn these unwillingness into motivation for raising pigs.

He just wanted to prove to others that he would not accept this loss. He had the honor of being named on the gold list, and in the future... he can do well.

When one thing becomes pure, when all burdens are let go, a new problem comes one after another.

You can raise pigs for a lifetime.

What about his wives and children?

I am ashamed of my ancestors.

He thought that he was once a scholarly family, and that he was also born in a prominent family.

Thinking of the dazzling array of rankings in the ancestral hall, I suddenly... tears in my eyes, the disaster is not as good as my wife and children, and the disaster is not as good as my children and grandchildren, but people, wives, children and children and grandchildren are one, who can be spared when this disaster strikes? ?

Wang Ao could understand Zhou Tanzhi's feelings, so he would pat him on the shoulder from time to time to show comfort, as if to say that he had been looked up to for most of his life, but so what, even a single disciple could not be preserved .

"Frankly, now that the imperial examinations have been abolished, your son is already seventeen years old. I used to study in the academy, and then I begged the Duke of Qi, the Duke of Qi... hey... don't talk about him, no matter what the Duke of Qi is like. People, but this Xishan Academy is now the general trend, and your son's future is very important."

Hearing this, Zhou Tanzhi fell to his knees and wept bitterly: "Teacher, the student is guilty, and he deserves this crime. The teacher suffers along with the student. The student is already ashamed. I wish I could run into death in front of the teacher. Who is the mentor, and when did he ever compromise? The mentor must not bow his head to the Duke of Qi. The mentor has lived a lifetime with his chest upright. When he is old, how can he lose his morals? Teacher... If so, the disciple would rather die than from."

Wang Ao let out a sigh.

He knew what Zhou Tanzhi meant.

I am different from others.

Others can be subdued.

But Wang Ao could not be subdued.

If you are subdued, there will be nothing left.

Wang Ao trembled slightly, wanting to help him up.

There was the snoring of a pig outside.

Zhou Tanzhi wiped away his tears and stood up: "Fang Sanshifan must be hungry again, student..."

Just as he was talking, someone came in from outside and said loudly: "My Liu Zhi is asking to see the prince, and to see the Duke of Zhou."

Wang Ao and Zhou Tanzhi looked at each other.

These days, there are many people who come to visit, but Wang Ao and Zhou Tanzhi are ashamed to see people, they all refuse to see them, and some people come, can't stand the smell of the pigsty, hold their noses and leave .

It's just...Liu Zhi...has never heard of it.

Wang Ao gave Zhou Tanzhi a wink.

Zhou Tanzhi knew that Wang Ao didn't want to see anyone, so he said, "Students, send him away."

Then, when he went out, he saw Liu Zhi looking up and down curiously. Not only did he not feel that the pigsty smelled weird, but he was very interested. When he saw Zhou Tanzhi coming out, he immediately bowed and saluted.

Zhou Tanzhi was about to speak.

Liu Zhi immediately said: "Duke Zhou's name is like a thunderbolt. I saw you today, and it turns out that there are no worthless people under the fame. Duke Zhou, I want to talk to you."

"What is there to talk about with the old man, I am already a man of idle clouds and wild cranes, living on my last breath..."

Zhou Tanzhi waved his hand, but he faintly felt that this Liu Zhi was a little different.

Seeing this, Liu Zhi immediately resumed the straight-to-the-point approach inherent in businessmen, and he immediately said: "What I want to talk about is business, and I want to ask Duke Zhou to raise pigs on my behalf."

Zhou Tan was taken aback, the first thing he felt...was Liu Zhi's humiliation.

He hasn't had a seizure yet.

Liu Zhi stretched out his finger directly: "Three hundred thousand taels, three hundred thousand taels of silver, to set up a new pig raising workshop, among others, give Mr. 20% of the shares, that is to say, the ten thousand taels of silver is given to Duke Zhou for nothing. Yes, Duke Zhou has the final say on all the big and small matters in this pig raising workshop, if Duke Zhou says east, then it will be east, if Duke Zhou says west, then it will be west."

Zhou Tan was stunned, but he was stunned.

In this world, there are still people who come to give money.

The businessman in front of him is simply unreasonable.

Liu Zhidao: "I have checked, and the holy order is for Zhou Gong to raise pigs, so how to raise pigs can actually be changed. I will let you clear up other matters. I am acquainted with the shopkeeper Wang Jinyuan from Xishan. This matter, You can wrap it on your body, and Duke Zhou only needs to raise pigs with peace of mind. To be honest, the 20% dry stock given to Duke Zhou is really nothing. It is only ten thousand taels now, and it may not be necessary in the future. All the expenses of Duke Zhou can skyrocket, and I will never ask about the monthly expenses of around one thousand taels of silver, I wonder what Duke Zhou thinks?"

As if afraid of Zhou Tanzhi's refusal, Liu Zhi bowed again: "Duke Zhou, right now, I am making great achievements, only today, and I, Liu, never do small business. For the sale of three hundred thousand taels of silver, Liu is It is absolutely unnecessary to pay a special visit for this purpose. As long as Zhou Gong nods, this is definitely not a transaction of 300,000 taels of silver. Or in the eyes of Zhou Gong, business management is really a vulgar thing, but Zhou Gong will never accept it. Those who are not inferior to others, why not take this opportunity and give it a try?"
