Let's not talk about whether he will be drunk to death, it is true that Old Man Sun drank a bowl of medicinal wine and almost choked to death. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I felt a stream of fire pass through my throat and go straight to my stomach and intestines, and my five organs and six abdomen were like fire. Sun Langzhong was hit by this hot flow, and his blood surged up in an instant, he couldn't say half a word, his old face was flushed, and he didn't know whether it was suffocating or burning with alcohol.

Tang Yi hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man, "Are you okay?" That's not how this wine is drunk. ”

Not to mention those who taste spirits for the first time, even those who are used to drinking liquor in later generations will not dare to pour it like this!

As soon as he pushed Tang Yi away, Old Man Sun stiffened, sat straight on the stone bench, stared at the beads of his eyes, and said stiffly:

"The old man has no four (things)!! .... Let me be soft (slowly).."

Tang Yi snickered secretly, is this still called okay? The tongue is hard.

Thump!

Before Tang Yi could make any more moves, he saw Sun Langzhong go down and lie directly on the stone table. Dizzy!

.....

"So powerful?" Yoon so was taken aback, he had never seen anyone get drunk so quickly, and he couldn't help but be curious, and he wanted to try it too.

Tang Yi hurriedly stopped, "It's already fallen, don't make a mess." ”

At that moment, pour a little medicinal wine into a bowl, rub it hot with your hands, and apply it to the joint pain on Yin Su's hands.

As soon as Tang Yi's hand touched Yin Su's joints, Yin Zhu was trembling in pain.

The wind paralysis pain is deep in the depths, and Yin Zhu's joints are already swollen and deformed, how can he withstand Tang Yi's rubbing like this. The pain like filing and tendons, no one can stand it.

Tang Yi hurriedly withdrew his hand and said with annoyance: "The kid is not light or heavy, it hurts Mr." ”

Yin Zhu smiled calmly: "You just have to get it, the old man still has this concentration." ”

Regardless of whether Tang Yi's medicine and wine work or not, it is a part of his heart as a junior. Yin Zhu is a humble gentleman, and he endures great pain and doesn't want to refute Tang Yi's kindness.

Helpless, Tang Yi could only get started again, this time more cautiously.

But he didn't want to, the drunk Sun Langzhong crawled on the table and muttered, "Stupid... Egg! Look for.. Mattress (deer)... skin, heat shield cloth...", while smacking his mouth, as if reminiscing about the big bowl of medicinal wine.

Everyone couldn't help laughing, it seems that this Sun Langzhong is still not drunk thoroughly, and there is still a trace of clarity in his heart.

However, professional is professional, Tang Yi hurriedly asked Fan Chunli to bring a deerskin handkerchief and put it on top of the joint. He also threw a cloth towel over hot water and put it on the leather, and used the heat of the hot cloth to help the medicinal wine act quickly on the affected area. In this way, without external force, it is naturally not all so painful.

It will take a while for the medicinal wine to see if it is useful, and Yin Zhu also took advantage of this time to chat with Tang Yi.

"How's your brewery going?"

"Let the gentleman worry about it, everything is ready for the sprinkler, just wait for enough helpers to be hired, and the wine can be served."

Yoon-so nodded, "Listen to Chunli, you need a lot of lard for the new sake you brew?" ”

"Not to mention a large number of butchers in the city, we have ordered the lard fat for the next three months."

Just to digest the existing more than 40,000 catties of liquor in the winery, more than 5,000 catties of lard are needed.

In the past two days, Zhang Quanfu has traveled to all the butchers' homes in the city, and even several counties closer to Dengzhou have walked to them with contract documents, signed contracts with them one by one, and purchased lard on a large scale.

Yin Zhu nodded, and his face couldn't help but show a solemn look, "Da Lang, have you ever thought that your purchase of such a large amount of oil will cause oil prices to soar and the people will suffer?" ”

The situation that Tang Dalang said was also what he was most worried about. Lard is in short supply, and the price will inevitably rise, Tang Yixin's wine is profitable, so he naturally doesn't care, but in the end it is the people who suffer. This is also the reason why the successive dynasties did not like businessmen, and businessmen valued profits and hurt the people.

"I've thought about it." Tang Yi replied truthfully, "But this is not a bad thing. ”

"Not a bad thing?" Yoon so frowned.

"Naturally, it's not a bad thing for you!" Fan Chunren snorted coldly. "It is you who will benefit, but it is the people who pay more and pay for the high oil prices."

Tang Yi shook his head helplessly, and said in his heart, does this Fan Chunren have a grudge against me? How to shake your face at every turn.

"Sir knows that the winery consumes a lot of lard, which will naturally make the price of oil soar, but compared with the benefits, this disadvantage is almost negligible."

"Oh?" Yin Su was suspicious, "Tell me, what's the benefit?" ”

"Let's ask sir, if according to the current scale of the sprinkler workshop, with an annual output of about 50,000 catties of new wine, can it be sold out?"

Yin Zhu didn't even think about it, "Dengzhou can be digested in one place, according to the quality of the new wine, 50,000 catties is too easy, and 100,000 catties can be sold out!" “

Tang Yi nodded, "Then if the output increases tenfold again, with an annual output of 500,000, will it still be sold?" ”

"500,000 catties?"

"Along the first line of the Han River, it can be sold in the middle of the Yangtze River." Yoon so pondered before giving this answer.

"What if it's a million a year?"

Yoon Su was taken aback, "An annual output of one million? “

"The realm of the whole Song is available for sale!" He couldn't figure it out, if it was really as Tang Yi said, with an annual output of one million, the amount of lard required would be as high as 120,000 catties, which would only make the price of oil higher, where would the benefits come from?

"Good!" Tang Yi shouted: "Now the winery has an annual output of 50,000 catties, and I can't see anything." Then let's expand the scale by 20 times, assuming an annual output of one million catties. ”

"Humph!" Fan Chunren said disdainfully: "According to your words, the oil price of the entire Great Song Dynasty will increase several times!" Besides, where are you going to get so much lard? ”

Tang Yi sneered, "Now the price of big oil is 50 yuan, and in Dengzhou, even if the people don't use lard, it will definitely not be enough to consume the million-dollar production capacity of the winery." But what if the price of lard rises to 500 dollars? ”

.....

At that time, the lard alone can be more than enough. Such a large profit will inevitably drive livestock farmers to raise more and sell more.

Tang Yi was too lazy to argue with him, looked at Yin Zhu and said, "Sir, do the math, how much does the sprinkling workshop with an annual output of one million employ?" ”

Yoon Su was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Five hundred?" ”

"Less! There are at least 1,000 wine workers alone, and it is estimated that there will be 2,000 people in addition to miscellaneous labor such as packing and fruit selection. ”

"Two thousand?"

Yoon so looked incredulous. Even the government-run workshop of the court is only a few hundred people. In this era, there has never been a large workshop with thousands of people.

Tang Yi said firmly: "Ask Mr. again, how many fruit farmers do Million Winery want to supply fresh fruits?" ”

Yoon so was blinded, he couldn't answer.

"10,000 acres of orchards?"

"How many farmers do millions of wineries use to raise pigs to refine oil?"

"If the Million Distillery wants to send it to the whole Song Dynasty, how much manpower will it need to transport?"

"How many hotel sales?"

"How many merchants from all over the world can be attracted to Dengzhou?"

Tang Yi's voice was like a big Lu, so shocked that Yin Zhu and Fan Chunren couldn't say a word.

“......”

Fan Chunren also put away his dislike and pondered, "What do you mean..."

"I mean, people only see what is in front of you, but you don't notice the potential benefits behind it." Tang Yi said solemnly.

"This is an industrial chain, and according to the quality of new wine, it is not difficult to achieve an annual output of one million. The huge interest will attract some people to come to him and rely on it to survive. If it is operated properly, it can make a seemingly ordinary jar of fruit wine to feed a large number of people from fruit farmers, wine workers, transportation capacity, sales, and so on. This is a huge number that is difficult to calculate. ”

"Moreover, Mr. can calculate it again..."Tang Yi smiled profoundly.

"How many families can these people support?"

That's an astronomical amount, not to mention a huge amount!

"However, the number of people harmed by the soaring oil prices is much greater than the number of people who benefit." Fan Chunren still insists on his opinion.

But Yin Su figured out the joint, "If the old man guessed correctly, the sharp rise in oil prices is only temporary." ”

"Mr. Takami!" Tang Yi smiled happily. Xin said, Fan Er's level and Yin Su are still almost meaningless.

"Whether it is a merchant or a common person, they are all born for profit. When the price of oil is high to a certain extent, pig breeding can obtain greater profits, and there will naturally be more people raising pigs, and the price of oil will also drop if there are more pigs. ”

Afraid that Fan Chunren wouldn't understand, Tang Yi explained: "From the rule of the Three Emperors, to the unification of the Six Kingdoms by Qin, and then to the sweeping away of the Eight Desolations and Liuhe of the Han and Tang Dynasties, it seems that Han culture has been growing and developing, but in fact, the fundamental changes have not been great. ”

"Oh?"

"We have not been able to break out of the primitive natural economy of an agrarian society."

"What is a primitive natural economy?" Yin Zhu still doesn't know much about this new word that Tang Yi occasionally pops up in later generations.

"Uh....", this doesn't seem to be easy to explain.

After thinking about it for a long time, Tang Yi said: "It's just to rely on the sky to eat." The people's living standards, commodity prices, and the strength of the country are all determined by the year. If the year is good, the goods are cheap, the people are safe, and the state-owned treasury is surplus; If the year is bad, prices will soar, and the people will be hungry and the country will be poor. ”

Yin Zhu nodded, Tang Yi is right, all dynasties have lived on the little things in the farmers' fields, and they will be prosperous in good years, and poor in disaster years.

In such an economic environment, wealth is taken from agriculture, and the quality of agricultural work is taken from heaven, which is almost uncontrollable. If you are unlucky, two catastrophic years can hollow out a country; If you have a few in a row, you can lose the country. ”

......

What Tang Yi said is not true at all, Yin Zhu, as a person who has been an official in the center for many years, certainly understands this truth. It's just that this is a thousand-year-old proposition, and the Chinese people have been looking for a prescription, but they have not been able to solve it.

......

"That big man thinks that this game... Why? Yoon Su stared at Tang Yi.

The tone used turned out to be the meaning of asking for advice and asking for learning.
