Suddenly I saw a group of government servants walking down the street, all with their chests and bellies raised. The leader beat the gong and shouted: "Dear fellow villagers - Mr. Su, the prefect, has recently bought a steam mill, which can grind one stone and rice at a time - the next machine will

It will be delivered to you in the next month - please come and see it at that time - if this grinding machine is cheap and easy to use, Mr. Su will buy nineteen more in the future - rent it to the people at a very low price - grind it in the future

Rice doesn’t require people or animals—it will save effort to grind rice from now on—”

An idle man said loudly: "Are you still grinding rice? Aren't the granaries all empty and you can't get out the army rations?"

The yamen servant said: "How can such a thing happen? When did the granary become empty? This grinding machine was bought by our master himself and has nothing to do with the government. Our master is a man who does big things and refused to use the government's rice testing machine. That's why the price is so high

To buy rice.”

Another idle man sneered: "Why bother telling such lies? If there is no rice, there is no rice. If there is rice, why bother to post a notice to buy it?"

The officer's lips crooked, his nose twisted, he put his chin on his hips and looked at the man, saying: "You poor fool, how can you know what the master is thinking! Even if there is no rice, Wu State has a lot of rice, so you can just buy it with money.

?Do you know that the processing industry is more advanced than agriculture?" This was said by Jia Cong. He had a good memory and read it out smoothly.

The idle man was stunned for a moment and said: "That's easy to say. Mr. Su is an upright official, where does he get the money?"

The yamen servant was about to lift his chin and look at the sky: "The door curtain of Master Su's house is made of tapestry brocade! Do you know what tapestry brocade is? Every inch of tapestry is gold! Much richer than that local leopard Xie Jing."

A little brother following behind him asked: "Brother, what is Kesi brocade?"

How does this person know? "It's just satin made of gold."

A young man who looked like a businessman pushed through the crowd and walked in. He bowed his hand to the government servant and said, "Sir, Mr. Su, did you say that Mr. Su bought a steam grinding machine?"

The yamen officer nodded: "Not bad."

"When will it arrive?"

The yamen officer rolled his eyes at him: "Didn't I just tell you next month? Are you deaf?"

The young man was not annoyed at all, and said again: "I am from the capital city, and my family is a rice merchant. I came to Jiangxi to buy rice, and happened to hear what the official said. As far as I know, the steam grinding machine is not only expensive, but also expensive."

It's scary, and it's extremely difficult to buy. If Mr. Su can tell me the source of the steam grinding machine, I'm willing to pay 20% below the market price..." He thought for a while, stretched out three fingers, "30% of the price will be Su's.

Sell ​​him the rice that your Excellency needs. Anyway, Mr. Su is not asking for rice right now, I will definitely deliver it all before the end of the month."

The yamen officer looked at him: "Thirty percent?"
