The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 811
[Chapter 811: Mind the world]
After the captain left.
Zuo Fei still couldn’t hold back the doubts in his heart and asked: “Manager Bai, there is actually one thing that I don’t understand.”
Bai Xiaochun looked at Zuo Fei and said calmly: “Tell me.”
Zuo Fei said: “Young Master Is it really just to do business in Nanyang that you spend so much energy? In Dachu, whether it is Southeast Road, Lianghu Road, Liangchuan Road, or even Central Plains Road, there are still a lot of blanks. Why do you have to come to Nanyang?
The money earned may not be as much as the money invested.”
When Bai Xiaochun heard this, a smile appeared on his face, he looked at Zuo Fei and said, “Actually, I have thought about this problem before, and I have been wandering here for half a year. , but I have figured it out a lot.”
After a pause, he continued: “First of all, the money earned must be more than the investment. There is no doubt about this.
Secondly, all I see is money. The complacency in front of me is a little benefit, but in the eyes of the young master, it is not necessarily.”
Zuo Fei still looked confused and didn’t understand what it meant.
Bai Xiaochun continued: “It’s very simple, the world, the world, the young master has the world in mind.”
Zuo Fei was still confused, what does having the world in mind have to do with going to Nanyang?
Bai Xiaochun saw that Zuo Fei still didn’t understand, so he simply made it clear and said very straightforwardly: “The world of the young master is not the land of the capital, the Central Plains Road, the Great Chu, or the grassland tribes, but the real world, not Nanyang, nor the Not the barbarians, but the world of the barbarians including Da Chu, the grasslands, Nanyang, and the barbarians!
If you don’t even know what the world is like, how can you care about the world?” When
Zuo Fei heard this, he looked thoughtful. Color, then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he instantly felt the young master’s ambition, and was shocked and speechless.
Seeing him like this, Bai Xiaochun just smiled, looked to the east, and said as if with emotion: “The young master looks cynical, but in fact he is farther than I think.
People in this world, like the young master, I’m afraid you won’t be able to find one in ten million.
This is the young master!”
What Bai Xiaochun didn’t know was that Fang Xiu, who he said might not be able to find one in ten million, was accompanying Zhao Yan at this moment. Shopping in the south of the city.
Chengnan today is no longer what it was a year ago.
After experiencing what happened on Gujing Street, plus the additions of the Capital Grand Theater, Chunfeng Tower, and Zhuxuanzhai.
Today’s south of the city can be said to be the most prosperous place in the entire capital and even the entire Chu Kingdom.
When summer comes, the lake in the south of the city brings a refreshing feeling.
Night is coming, and there are red lanterns hanging everywhere.
The number of tourists is gradually increasing.
The tourists who come to the south of the city are not only people from the capital, but also many from other places, all coming here because of its reputation.
Fang Xiu and Zhao Yan walked side by side.
Zhao Yan looked very happy.
Somehow, she always remembered that summer a year ago.
It seems that he is standing here, holding a sword, and wants to act chivalrously.
But he didn’t expect that it would almost change his life.
At that time, she just thought that her plan to escape Kyoto Prefecture had been changed. It’s quite emotional
to look at it now
.
Zhao Yan sighed.
The sounds of various vendors not far away were endless.
Zhao Yan looked at a candy man shop and recalled that on the Lantern Festival a year ago, when she and Fang Xiu were walking side by side, Fang Xiu had bought herself a candy man that looked similar to her own.
It was really fun. Thinking about it, she said, “Fang Xiu, do you think that candy man looks good?”
Fang Xiu turned around, glanced at the candy man, and said, “It looks good.”
Zhao Yan stared at the candy man. ,not talking.
Fang Xiu also said nothing.
Zhao Yan suddenly stamped her feet and walked forward angrily.
Fang Xiu stood behind, watching this scene, feeling confused for a while.
You asked me if the sugar man is good-looking, and I answered you. Why are you so angry?
Hey
woman.
Fang Xiu was thinking about going up and saying a few words of comfort.
At this time, a loud noise suddenly came from not far away.
“Fine silk and fine cloth. Don’t miss it if you pass by! Each piece only costs a penny!”
“Everything you want is available here, at favorable prices, at favorable prices!”
Zhao Yan heard this voice , suddenly stopped, turned to look at Fang Xiu, with little stars in his eyes, and said, “Let’s go and have a look.”
After hearing this, Fang Xiu felt a little speechless.
If you are so rich, why do you have to join in the fun?
After being speechless, I became a little curious again.
Whose cloth is this? It only costs a penny a piece?
You know, the textile industry in Dachu is actually not that developed yet.
Looms have developed to a certain extent, but textile machines are still the same as they were hundreds of years ago.
There is only so much output, and the price has always been high.
When Fang Xiu was nothing, he once thought about improving machines to make money.
But his little engineering knowledge was probably not comparable to that of a high school student. After looking at the textile machines, he gave up.
Choose to write a book, open a restaurant, and make money.
Even so, he also has a certain understanding of the price of cloth in the capital.
In this capital city, even the most inferior piece of cloth cannot cost less than ten cents.
This horse is worth a penny, so it should be a profit at a loss no matter what.
No wonder Zhao Yan wanted to join in the fun.
After all, with such a cheap price, it is impossible for anyone to remain indifferent, let alone a girl.
Fang Xiu sighed, although he had no choice but to follow him.
There were a lot of people gathered in front of the cloth shop, and it didn’t take much to figure out that they were all here for the penny of cloth.
To Fang Xiu’s surprise, the people standing in front of the village were not a tall and thick man, but a few maids who looked a little delicate.
The little maids each held different pieces of cloth in their hands, and shouted in a clear voice: “Don’t crowd, line up, line up, a penny a piece, as long as you give me money, you will have it!”
“Yeah, Fang “Xiu, don’t tell me, these pieces of cloth are pretty good-looking, I thought they were just a few.”
Zhao Yan said, turning to look at Fang Xiu, after seeing his eyes, her expression changed a bit, and she was not angry. He pinched him, “What are you looking at!?”
“I see.”
Fang Xiu was about to speak, but stopped in a hurry, and changed his words: “I see those cloths, they are really good.”
“Bah! A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory!”
Zhao Yan cursed and continued to watch those people snatching the penny cloth.
Suddenly, she seemed to see something, a look of surprise appeared on her face, and she said: “The colors of these pieces of cloth always feel familiar to me, as if I have seen them there before”
