Chapter 1149 Chapter 1149: Artemisia Ascaris (Part 2) [Asking for monthly votes]
General Gong Xiqiu waved his hand in front of Shen Tang's eyes.
He said: "Why, are you so happy?"
He was absolutely sure that Mama was distracted just now. If he took the opportunity to sneak attack and assassinate her, she would not be able to escape. This was not the quality that a powerful warrior should have. Gong Xiqiu was a little unhappy at first—Xun Yongan shook his head when his eldest brother took the blame—but after Mama's reaction, he felt relieved again.
That’s it, that’s all.
Having close friends should share blessings and misfortunes.
These days, Gong Xiqiu finally realized how pitiful Shen Tang was as the leader of the country. He did not enjoy the glory and wealth at all, but suffered from the pain of spending three hundred and sixty-five days. I have no money in my wallet when I go out, so I need to borrow money to entertain my friends. My style is all supported by Chu Wuhui's few love generators and the three-province system in the palace. Otherwise, I can't even afford decent clothes for the four seasons. Isn't this outrageous?
When the eldest brother found out, his eyes were red and he was about to cry.
Similarly, to the high priest, Mama was the image of the **** enshrined on the altar. It is disrespectful not to cast a solid statue of pure gold, but to just put a few layers of gold foil on the outside. Seeing his eldest brother trying to remember what the old man had to offer, Gong Xiqiu rolled his eyes while crossing his shoulders.
【Why don't you demolish all the ancestral halls? 】
Gong Xiqiu remembered that the old priest said that the main material of the old ancestral hall was gold, besides rosewood. It was large and magnificent, and even the floor tiles of the main hall were mixed with a large amount of gold. These metals are precious in the world, but they are more precious than a morsel of food in the clan. In addition to the gold, there are a bunch of white, red, yellow, green stones, and a bunch of small white sparkling stones.
Jimo Qiu thought for a while: [It can be dismantled. 】
Since the souls of the tribe have returned to the embrace of the gods, the so-called ancestral hall is not as important as the secular world. It is basically only used for meetings of the tribe. What’s more, the old tribe’s land has long been abandoned, and the new ancestral hall was built on the subsequent tribe’s land. The old ancestral hall can be demolished.
Gong Xiqiu almost choked on his saliva.
【Can this be dismantled? Then simply dismantle the statue. 】
The idols in Xinzu land are carved from huge rocks.
The statues of the Lao people are carefully carved from gold and precious stones.
Well, pure gold, solid.
It's just not as big as the stone statue.
Jimo Qiu hesitated for a moment: […that’s okay too. 】
Gong Xiqiu was speechless: "That's a statue of a god." 】
If you want to move it away, you may have to cut it into pieces, melt them into gold bricks, and transport them away piece by piece. This is absolutely disrespectful!
Jimo Qiu has good reasons: [The statue of a **** is just a container that carries a ray of spiritual thought. The spiritual thought does not exist, it is just a decoration. 】
The offering depends on the heart rather than the appearance.
【This is really - I don't feel sad to give away my ancestral property. ] Gong Xiqiu knew that he could not stop his eldest brother's decision to give away his ancestral property, so he simply gave up. [Forget it, let's just treat it as targeted poverty alleviation. After all, I am the only remaining member of the clan, and I have a share of the ancestral property. My brother can just leave me a box, and I don’t want any more. 】
【what would you like? 】
【Uncle said it is called Bright Shining. ] As he said that, Gong Xiqiu took out an exquisite and gorgeous pearl and diamond hair chain studded with shiny gems from his arms, [It's just this sparkling white! The old priest said that there is a big pit in the old clan's land specifically for storing this kind of stuff. 】
He is not interested in anything else.
I only like small shiny white stones.
The old priest also gave him a handful, large and small, and they were really shiny after being cut and polished. When I was young, my uncle would inlay various stones and pearls into hair ropes, and then braid the hair ropes into small braids. As he grew up, his aesthetics changed.
Colorful is too flashy, simple and elegant is better.
However, children prefer this.
Gong Xiqiu made up a few of them in his spare time, preparing them for Alai's daughter. He didn't know how long she had been pregnant and whether she could be tied up. Jimo Qiu thought what it was: "It turns out to be a diamond. If you want it, you can pinch it with daily practice. With your strength, you can make several boxes in ten and a half days..."
If Gong Xiqiu thinks it's too troublesome, he can do it for him.
Gong Xiqiu's face fell: "Ah, I pinched it myself?" 】
No, is this thing so cheap?
Jimo Qiudao: [What if? 】
Gong Xiqiu can indeed do it now, but he is not familiar with the process and it will be more difficult at the beginning. Once you gain more experience and become a skilled worker, your production capacity will make a qualitative leap. However, it is rare for an older brother to ask for it. As an elder brother, he should be satisfied.
Gong Xiqiu: […]
It took Shen Tang a while to recover from the joy of the windfall, and he said, "Hand-rolled diamonds? I want to learn too!"
Gong Xiqiu was almost speechless.
“When big brother comes back to teach me, I will teach you.”
A close friend should share the blessings and the misfortunes!
Shen Tang nodded like a fool: "Absolutely learn! Only aristocratic families are worthy of being decorated with the biggest! The flashiest! The most gorgeous diamonds. With such a sharp tool in hand, I would be sorry if I didn't cut a wave of leeks! Your eldest brother said You can rub it with your hands, right? Did he mention the minimum threshold? When not fighting, brave warriors can shine elsewhere besides infrastructure!"
This is re-employment.
The employment opportunities for Wudan major graduates have expanded again!
Gong Xiqiu curled his lips: "Who are you selling it to? Isn't he stupid?"
Shen Tang waved his fingers from side to side: "NONONO, you don't understand people's hearts. There is a saying that wealth does not return to its hometown, but travels at night like fine clothes! If you don't show off your glory, who will know that you are rich? In the same way, these aristocratic families, Royal nobles and their like don’t display things that symbolize their status, such as clothing, carriages and horses. Who knows that their status is higher than that of ordinary people?”
This is the same truth throughout the ages.
Shen Tang picked the pearl hairband on his braid with his fingers.
"Tell me, if you and your eldest brother hadn't shown off these pearls, who would have known how many pearls you have? All the pearls in Kang State have been sold by you two brothers. The supply of pearls exceeds the demand. How many pearl farmers can you feed?" Xu Quan, president of the Xiqiu Conservation Association, took the lead in promoting it to him, and pearls were in hot demand. Young people pursue pearls, why don’t noble families pursue diamonds?
What a truth!
Gong Xiqiu frowned and said, "But this thing..."
Shen Tang closed his palm and said with a smile: "It's cheap! But it's in small quantity. A brave warrior of your level is expensive! It's rare and expensive. These are the attributes sought after by buyers! This is like the hot demand in the past. ”
How much money did you make for Shen Tang when Ronghua first came out?
It can be called a cash cow in the early stages of entrepreneurship! Unfortunately, there are no technical barriers to this thing. As those skilled embroiderers slowly figure it out, making money is not as easy as before. With the promotion, velvet flowers also began to be rolled inward, into patterns and shapes.
Even so, it is still a stable income.
Because Shen Tang has already established a brand.
Don’t be afraid of aging in routines, as long as they are effective!
"Besides, if you don't tell me, if you don't tell me, if your elder brother doesn't tell me, who knows how much this thing costs? People will only sigh for its exquisiteness and preciousness!" Shen Tang's eyes were bright when he mentioned the way to make money. It was so bright that she changed her mind and said, "There is also this roundworm, which is also an opportunity to get rich! Let's take a country with a population of one million as an example! Everyone has ascariasis, and one person can eat one pill a month. Well, how many pills do we need to eat in December a year? Even if we only earn a penny from one pill, how much can we earn in this country in one year? , It’s about to be distributed! ” ˆˆˆ Jimo Qiu is a very kind person. He first gave him a large amount of ancestral property, and then gave her Artemisia roundworm seeds to make roundworm medicine, and also provided technical support for cultivating diamonds... These are not just free money. Yes, he is clearly the God of Wealth! Gong Xiqiu was speechless when he saw this.
Shen Tang waved his hands and said in a sour tone: "How can someone like you, who has never been poor, understand my sadness? I have never had wealth and freedom in my life... Hanzhang owed me a lot of debt again, I... wait, Don’t give away your eldest brother’s ancestral property yet!”
Gong Xiqiu raised his eyebrows: "Why?"
Shen Tang said a little coyly: "At this stage, the assets under my name, ahem, will be enforced."
Tsk, why do you sound like a shameless old man?
Gong Xiqiu: “…”
Shen Tang scratched his head and said bitterly: "...Haha, after all, this is the property accumulated by your ancestors. Although it is mine if you give it to me, I can do it with you in any way, but using it to repay the loan owed by Hanzhang is not a neglect. What do you think of your brother?"
Gong Xiqiu carefully chewed the meaning of this sentence.
Agree: "That's true."
If brother knew about it, I'm afraid it would be too broken to stick together.
As soon as he woke up, three windfalls were about to enter his pocket. Shen Tang was in high spirits and beaming, but was there still a little bit of weakness and haggard on his face? She can't wait to discuss with Xun Zhen, the Minister of Household Affairs, to see where these three huge sums of money will be spent.
"Do it well and keep playing with your bugs!" Shen Tang's lips curled up even harder than AK's. He patted Gong Xiqiu on the shoulder, walked cheerfully, hummed a tune, and jumped away, " I’ll go and greet my great wealth first!”
Gong Xiqiu almost lost his balance and fell forward.
“Forget friends when you see benefits!”
With this slap, if I lose my balance and fall forward, wouldn't it mean that I'll be smeared in the face by an insect? Disgusting!
“My dear sister, please beg you...”
“…Hehehe, it’s settled…”
“…When this matter is over, I invite you to go and see…”
Qi Miao pestered Lin Feng to come to the wounded barracks together, saying "good sister" to him, coaxing him until his pretty face turned red. When Gong Xiqiu saw it from afar, he secretly shook his head. This Qi Miao not only looks like Shan Qi back then, but also has the same ability to coax people with sweet words.
Even if the eldest brother can retrieve the Artemisia roundworm seeds, he still has to rely on Lin Feng to intervene in trial planting, improvement and large-scale planting. Lin Feng was busy, so Qi Miao could only play the relationship card and join her.
Gong Xiqiu looked at the direction they were coming from.
asked: “Have you seen Mama?”
Lin Feng's eyes flashed with joy: "The Lord is awake?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "I just left not long ago."
I guess they were misplaced and didn’t touch each other.
The layout of the unfamiliar camp made Shen Tang take a lot of detours. Fortunately, she was still able to find people by following their scent, and she roughly determined Xun Zhen's direction and headed straight away. She suddenly opened the curtain of the temporary camp: "Hanzhang, our opportunity to make a lot of money is here!"
In the tent, Xun Zhen, who was worrying about money, was shocked.
Immediately left the tent to discuss matters with the officials: "Seriously?"
He was so happy that he forgot to ask when Shen Tang woke up.
Xun Zhen has been leading people to check the accounts of Gao Guo's treasury these past few days, which makes his brain explode. The more I calculate, the more I feel that the attack on Gaoguo is a failure! Still losing blood! If it weren't for Wu Xian's special status, he would have gone to Wu Xian to ask clearly!
Many account books were destroyed in the fire.
There are not enough officials responsible for this.
To make matters worse, most of the main officials responsible for the finances of Gaoguo fled with the new ruler of Gaoguo on the day of the fire! That means these people are all dead! Directly dead without any evidence! Many bad debts simply became dead debts!
This piece should have been Kang's trophy!
The results are gone!
The losses of the Kangguo army since the war began, daily expenses, and post-war pensions...all of this is money! Not only that, Kang Guo wants to completely control Gaoguo and win over the people, so he has to spend money to help rebuild various parts of Gaoguo, which is also an expense!
The two strokes added together made Xun Zhen's eyes darken.
Seeing that it was time to allocate military pay every quarter, the generals led by Wei Shou, Qian Yong and others secretly asked when the master would wake up and when rewards would be given based on merit... When Xun Zhen thought of allocating money again, How can one not be heartbroken when the household department can only go out but not enter?
“...What do you ask me to do?” The Ministry of Accounts hates not being able to pay the accounts the most, and secondly hates people asking for money. Xun Zhen is now so angry that everyone can vent her anger, and her mental state is very beautiful, "What else can I do? There is such a big hole, you guys let it go What can I do? Do you want me to dress up now and go out on the streets to make money by selling my hair?"
At the time of desperation, Shen Tang fell from the sky.
Every word is the sound of nature.
Xun Zhen was so excited that her legs wanted to shake. Her eyes were red with excitement and she asked Shen Tang over and over again: "Seriously?"
Shen Tang said: "Uh, seriously."
Xun Zhen wiped away the sweat and said, "Huh, that's good."
As a master, not to mention other abilities, making money is top-notch.
He knows best how much debt the Lord has been burdened with over the years. The amount was so huge that I once suspected that the Lord would be buried in this life! What is gratifying is that the master has a first-class ability to make money and save money. He gritted his teeth and evened out the accounts!
He doubted nothing but Shen Tang's ability to make money.
Xun Zhen’s brain cooled down and she calmed down.
“The Lord said you can make a lot of money, can you tell me how much you can make?”
Shen Tang said: "I'm not very clear either."
She pulled Xun Zhen to a corner and briefly talked about the windfall. The monarch and his ministers murmured together, and Xun Zhen listened attentively, for fear of missing a word. The more he listened, the brighter his eyes became: "How much you can earn from diamonds and tapeworm medicine depends on the production of diamonds and the anthelmintic effect of tapeworm medicine. The benefits are difficult to estimate. However, the savings of the Gongxi clan for hundreds of thousands of years..."
Just hearing "hundreds and thousands of years" can make his mouth water.
“…This is something you can use as soon as you get it!”
Not only can this debt be settled, but it can also enrich the national treasury!
Shen Tang whispered: "But this is not good..."
Xun Zhen was not happy when she heard this: "What's wrong?"
"It's a bit disrespectful to spend the ancestral property given by others like this. If you tell me, it doesn't look good on me." Although Shen Tang was also crazy about it, she was thin-skinned and said, "I spent all my wife's dowry with a man." Just as embarrassing!”
Xun Zhen almost jumped after hearing this.
“What’s shame? What’s shame?”
The fat in your mouth can’t fly no matter what you say! Xun Zhen said sternly: "You can't even give away money for the sake of face! There is a popular saying, if a wise man helps me with Qingyunzhi, I will return a virtuous man ten thousand taels of gold! Is the Lord Qingyunzhi not worth this price?"

Tangmei: She sells diamond products to the countries in the Central Continent with the largest number of aristocratic families, and sells roundworm medicine to the Aixuan raw pickled fish and shrimp area.
