MTL - Rebirth Blessed Girl Takes Space To Flee-Chapter 307
It was getting colder in autumn, and there was a lot of rain this summer. Li Yu had a sense of crisis, and bought a lot of medicinal materials and food in advance.
The Gu family and the Li family’s own workshops are also making money. Li Yu was worried that the emperor would not get much food and grass in the northwest, so he bought a lot of food, grass and medicinal materials in batches in summer.
Now the town has a large warehouse, which is more convenient for storage.
The jewelry workshop of the Gu family has also opened up sales. It has cooperated with the Xie family of the Wang family to sell to the south, and there are too many orders to fill.
This time, Uncle Ba chose several family members to learn jewelry making, in preparation for expanding manpower in the future.
Embroidery workshop is also doing very well. It is the first to start making money. Although it was started by a group of female relatives, it can do better than men.
Gu Lin’s aunts copied famous calligraphy and paintings for the embroiderer to embroider, and then made a good wooden base to sell. A piece of work can sell for two to three thousand taels of silver, and they have to queue up to order.
The small works are also several hundred taels, and the girls are doing it in full swing, but they are embarrassing.
I didn’t dare to add too many properties this year, and only filled in two good houses in the northeast.
Boss Li sent a message that Li Yu and his wife went to discuss matters.
The two rushed to Li's house, where Grandpa Gu and other elders were there.
"Grandpa, Dad, what happened?"
"Northwest wrote a letter to ask for help. There is a lot of rain this year, and the harvests in various places are not good. The emperor only gave 30% of the food and grass to the Northwest. The gap is a bit big. They prepared a small part in advance with their own money, but it was still not enough. The soldiers' salaries must be paid on time. .”
Gu Lei turned to look at his wife in surprise, "Yu'er, let you figure it out."
At that time, there was a lot of rain in summer, and Li Yu was very worried. He began to buy grain every month and check it regularly, filling up several warehouses in one go.
Then I thought that if I don’t need it, I can give it away everywhere, and I can make wine, anyway, it won’t be wasted. Gu Lei also let her toss about it, but she did not expect it.
Li Yu lowered his face, "When will the goods be delivered?"
"As soon as possible, it's time to freeze in winter."
"Okay, it happens that the ship is our own, Leizi, you and His Highness will start preparing for loading the ship as soon as you report."
"good."
"This time His Highness will also send out half of the grain, grass and medicinal materials, and take them away together."
Every time he supports the Northwest, the Night King gives a lot and tries his best.
"This dog emperor will be punished by heaven."
Li Yu cursed.
Soldiers protect their homes and defend the country, they don’t give anything, they don’t give money, they don’t give food, so they drink the northwest wind.
"Father, did the emperor expect that we would give it, so he dared not give it?"
Li Yu gritted his teeth angrily.
"Half and half, he can be a beast, we are human and cannot be with pigs and dogs."
"What's more, we will go back to the capital in the future. The court's support is also very important to us, and it is for the stability and peace of the border."
"Fine."
"There is good news this time. The Northwest generals allowed us to arrange people to join the army there. They asked the emperor for some rights and they can arrange for our own people."
"Good news, Dad, who are you going to send?"
"I want to send a few more people there, send a few young ones to go to hone, and the Gu family will also choose a few to go there. But let's say first, you can't be a high-ranking official, you can only be a small general. Such an official general can make his own decisions. , there is no need to tell the emperor, once the official position becomes bigger, the emperor will give his permission."
It is currently impossible for the emperor to allow the Li family and the Gu family to intervene in the Northwest military power.
But the general is outside... the rank of general is no more than the third rank. The commander can decide the promotion of the general by himself, and the emperor can't pay attention to every official.
"Okay, grandpa, who do you want to go?"
"Your two uncles are leaving, and the rest will go to Erlang. You can experience it when you are young, so that the Northwest veterans will not feel that we are threatening their status."
For the sake of prudence, you still can’t send core generals there. This side is also highly valued. If you go there, you won’t be able to get promoted and get real power. Instead, it’s a waste of time.
"OK."
"The cattle and sheep from the northwest have sent a large batch, and they will arrive in a few days. Remember to pick them up. There are also leather goods and mountain goods."
Boss Li thought of something, "By the way, the Northwest sent a good opportunity. They brought a batch of jade for us to see. They sent people to take down the mine, they can mine jade, and they are willing to cooperate with us. Let us contribute our efforts and money, and let our two families make some money together."
Northwest generals repeatedly asked for help, I am really embarrassed, but I can’t afford the money. I have to feed so many soldiers, but I can exchange it with other things.
Northwest generals have a lot of power in the border area. Northwest commercial roads, mines, etc. have to pass under their hands. If there is no money, they can cooperate with each other to make money.
At this time, the importance of friendship is reflected. Without the entrustment of the Gu and Li families, the mine would not be able to cooperate with you. No one thinks the money is too much.
"Does Your Highness have a share?"
"The eldest son has a share."
"Okay, then I'll go down and make arrangements."
Gu Lei understood immediately.
"Lei Zi picked some good jade for our family, my sisters also need jewelry when they get married."
"Okay, I will pick one for you to play with."
Gold and silver are vulgar, and jade is loved by the public. It is easy to sell it from north to south, not to mention that the quality of Hetian jade is very high, and the price itself is not low.
This is really due to the generals' own affection, otherwise, based on Hetian Yu's reputation, the Northwest generals can cooperate with anyone, and they don't have to worry about making money.
"Father, can Northwest Commercial Road make some other products?"
"Yes, from next year, half of the money from the business can be collected back."
Northwest generals are also constantly planning for money and escape routes, and will not hang themselves on the wicked emperor. In fact, they can also be regarded as taking refuge in the Night King, but they cannot openly stand in line.
"Okay, then I will think about it and send a few more people to do some small business."
The old relationship in the Northwest has been initially opened up. Take this opportunity to arrange more people to go there, and do business if you can't enter the military camp.
If you have your own people, you won’t be afraid of inaccurate information. Anyway, Northwest is still your hometown.
"Show me the list."
Boss Li nodded.
After the discussion, the family had dinner together, and the two elders also discussed who was suitable to be sent to the Northwest Army, how to plan and other specific matters.
"Grandpa, I have something to discuss with you."
"you say."
"I want to send Gu Ping to the northwest."
Li Yu wants to give this future to his uncle. He is young and has little qualifications.
"You want Gu Ping to find a wife over there, preferably from a general's family..."
Grandpa Gu immediately understood her wishful thinking.
Use Gu Ping to go to the Northwest to gain a better future. It is best to find a girl in front of the general over there to marry.
"What do you think?"
"Look, Leizi."
"I think it's okay. If you choose a few unmarried sons to go there, maybe you can pry a way."
Gu Lei also agrees with his wife's opinion, no matter whether it succeeds or not, he will send him there to try.
"Okay, since you all agree, go and clarify with the children yourself, so that they can do things with confidence."
"yes."
Only by marriage can one be regarded as one’s true self, and the interests can last long.
