Chapter 351: Countermeasures (I)
Yuan Fang knew that Wan Chunya had misunderstood what he meant, so he pulled him aside and explained: "It's not for you to raise pigs, I'm asking if you are interested in buying shares?" β
Wan Chunya paused for a moment: "Shares? Brother-in-law, what kind of farm do you really want to get that farm specializing in raising pigs? β
Yuan Fang nodded and said: "Well, not only pigs, but also others, such as chickens, ducks, geese, donkeys, cows, etc., all get some to raise, and when they grow up, they will kill meat and sell it for money, and those chickens, ducks, and geese can also sell their eggs for money, don't look at the cost of an egg to remove the cost of not making much, but if it forms a scale, it is also a lot of income."

Wan Chunya asked tentatively: "Can it really work?" β
Yuan Fang nodded affirmatively: "If there is no plague or anything, it will definitely make money." β
Wan Chunya no longer hesitated: "Okay, count me in, but I don't have much silver, and I have to wait until the military salary is paid." β
Yuan Fang smiled and said: "Cheng, then this matter is settled, Sang Rou, you will go back and discuss it later, and see if you can also join the shares together and earn some pocket money." β
Sang Rou and Jieyue were typical of Yuan Fang's blind trust, and they didn't even think about it: "No need to discuss, do it with your brother-in-law, no one will object." Yuan Fang smiled.
Wan Chunya remembered something and reminded: "However, the imperial law seems to prohibit soldiers from engaging in business during their service, what should I do?" β
Yuan Fang was stunned for a moment, this is a difficult problem, but there are policies and countermeasures, Yuan Fang quickly thought of a way: "It's okay, let's share the worries of the empire, besides, the livestock we raise are not sold out, all of them are provided to the army, not business." β
Wan Chunya frowned and said, "If that's the case, how can we make money?" β
Yuan Fang smiled: "Of course, we buy low and sell high to make the difference, let's buy cubs to raise, remove the cost, and then sell them to the army at a slightly lower price according to the market price, in this way, while we earn silver, the empire also saves a lot of money to purchase these livestock, killing two birds with one stone." β
Wan Chunya shrugged: "I don't understand this, I'll leave it to you, I'll just divide the money when the time comes." β
Sang Rou smiled and said, "So are we." β
Yuan Fang rolled his eyes: "I would have known that I wouldn't have pulled you into the shares." β
The kitchen, at this time, is very busy, some firehead soldiers have also been called to help wash vegetables and cut meat, a row of makeshift kitchen stoves, more than a dozen large iron pots steam wanton, the rich aroma of meat wafting, making people's appetite and saliva non-stop. The cooks in the mansion didn't have time to enjoy that, they waved their spatulas to cook the food, there was no way, the food for 4,000 people was not so easy to prepare, if they didn't hurry up, they would be unlucky to let those soldiers go hungry.
Leaving the kitchen, Yuan Fang came to Yang Xing's bedroom, Yang Xing was talking to Xiaomei, seeing Yuan Fang coming, both of them closed their mouths, Xiaomei's face was slightly red.
Yuan Fang teased: "Yo, what are you talking about? β
Xiaomei smiled mischievously: "I won't tell you." β
Yuan Fang looked disappointed and said: "Alas, Xiaomei has grown up, and when she has a sweetheart, she forgets me, Brother Yuan, and doesn't say anything to me." β
Yang Xing rolled his eyes and said, "Boss, don't be emotional, I discussed with Xiaomei to find a time to get engaged." β
Yuan Fang looked at Xiaomei when he heard this, and saw that Xiaomei was a little embarrassed, so he couldn't help frowning. Sang Rou and Yuyue didn't think so much, hearing Yang Xing say this, they happily took Xiaomei's hand, and Yuyue spoke first: "Congratulations Xiaomei." β
Sang Rou said enviously: "Xiaomei is getting married, I'm really happy for you." Xiaomei smiled reluctantly and didn't say anything.
Yuan Fang sat opposite Yang Xing, poured himself a cup of tea and said, "You have decided?" Yang Xing nodded heavily: "Well, it's decided." Xiaomei sighed when she heard this, looked at Sang Rou and Yuyue, and stopped talking.
Yuan Fang beckoned to Sang Rou and Yuyue and said, "Don't make trouble, come and sit down." β
Sang Rou and Yuyue were stunned for a moment, only then did they realize that the atmosphere was a little wrong, neither Yang Xing nor Xiaomei's faces were too good-looking, so the two girls obediently walked to Yuan Fang and sat down, quietly listening to the conversation between the two.
Yang Xing, as the third prince of the empire, has the noble blood of the royal family, although it is not like the Qing Dynasty where intermarriage is forbidden between the Manchus and Hans, but as the future emperor, if you want to marry a wife, it is not as simple as finding a woman you like to marry into the door, marrying a wife, not a concubine, you must go through the royal family's heavy screening, whether it is character or family background, you must meet a certain standard, and Xiaomei, character, appearance, that's not to say, but the family background is not good, she and Da Mei are orphans, and were later taken in by Qin Cao, This kind of family background is obviously far from the standard of the imperial royal family after the election, and whether it is the prime minister or the queen, no matter what the purpose, they will not sit idly by, and will definitely obstruct it, so Yang Xing plans to cook raw rice and make a marriage with Xiaomei in advance, causing an unchangeable fact.
And Xiaomei, she also knows this, she is empathetic, she doesn't want to embarrass Yang Xing, she refuses again and again, and, as a woman, she also hopes that she can marry her beloved openly, instead of being so sneaky, and even, Xiaomei faintly gave up the position of her wife, saying that as long as she can be with Yang Xing, it is enough to be with Yang Xing, even if she doesn't become a queen, being an ordinary concubine will satisfy Yunyun, besides, Xiaomei also has an idea, which is her lifelong dream, that is, to become an excellent doctor, She also wants to use this time to work hard to realize this dream, and she doesn't want to get married in such a hurry.
After saying this, Yang Xing said in a pleading tone: "Boss, you help persuade Xiaomei, if she is not the queen, I will not be the emperor." β
Yuan Fang looked at Xiaomei: "You think too much, don't worry, with Brother Yuan here, you can rest assured that you will be your queen, as for the rest, I will help you settle it and ensure that Yang Xing will not be embarrassed." β
Xiaomei hesitated for a moment and said, "Really? However, my dream has not yet come true. β
Yuan Fang waved his hand and said: "There is no conflict between the two, you can specialize in medical skills as a queen." β
Xiaomei looked at Yang Xing, Yang Xing nodded vigorously: "When the time comes, you can toss as much as you want, I promise not to interfere." β
Xiaomei continued: "But, but will those people in the royal family agree? β
Yang Xing was angry and said: "It doesn't matter if they agree or not, this is a matter for the two of us, what does it have to do with them." β
Xiaomei shook her head and said, "Anyway, they are also your family." β
Yuan Fang interjected: "Xiaomei means that she wants to be blessed by everyone, right?" β
Xiaomei thought for a while, nodded and said, "Well, it's almost." β
Yuan Fang pondered for a moment: "This is also easy to do." β
Yang Xing's eyes lit up: "Boss, have you thought of a way?" β
