Traveling through famine: The space peasant girl

Wang Shiyu looked at the people around her silently. The people here were all gossipy, and even today's events would soon be spread out with exaggeration.

"Everyone is a neighbor of the village. Today, the old woman of the Shao family came to my house to make trouble. I dared to take action because she slandered my own mother. Before, when Mr. Liu came to my house to teach, our door was open to everyone to watch. There has never been any underworld.

If what happened today gets out, I don't mind going to my house and talking to the person who delivered the message. If you don't want to lose your tongue, I can help cut it off. You all know that my husband has the support of the City Lord's Mansion, so please think twice before spreading rumors.

I am not a generous person. The matter of the Shao family is not over yet. I want to see how the Shao family got the position of scholar. "

After saying that, he went back to the yard and sat down. No one cared about the old woman from the Shao family who was knocked unconscious and was still lying at the gate. Madam Liu looked at Mr. Liu's gloomy eyes and dared not say anything. She left in shame and went straight home.

Mr. Liu was really disappointed. If his cousin continued to collude with the Shao family and dared to instigate again, he would directly drive her and his daughter out of the house and let them go back to the Shao family. After all, the Shao family was her only home.

After all, his daughter should really be named Shao Ying, not Liu Ying. He is willing to take the blame, which is his own business, but he will not say that he is raising a child for the Shao family. He has long seen through his wife's little thoughts.

It was just that he had been thinking that this man might be ambitious, so he did not stop him. However, from what he had done in the past few days, he could see that this man had no scheming, no knowledge, and no ambition. Therefore, it was not suitable for his daughter to marry into such a family. If she married into such a family, she would be courting death. But today, seeing that his cousin dared to hang out with people from the Shao family, he was really disappointed.

Wang Shiyu directly arranged for people to go to the government office and start investigating Shao Guangzong's affairs. She was determined to strip him of his fame. Liu Ying was trembling with fear because her father had stopped talking to her. She really couldn't understand what her own mother was trying to do. If she wanted her to die, she should just say it directly. Why bother beating around the bush like this?

Everyone in the Liu family had different ideas. Even Mrs. Liu was very nervous. She felt that what the old woman from the Shao family said made sense. It was Liu Ying who caused the other person's child to have his leg broken. It was her duty to serve him. But who knew that this person was so ignorant and actually cursed the Mo family. He was courting death and wanted to blackmail them. Is Wang Shiyu someone you can blackmail? He is really asking for death.

Wang Shiyu and Yu Xiuming were much more comfortable. Yu Xiuming was so busy that he could hardly be seen. Liuli factories were built one after another, which alleviated the shortage of glass. Now almost every household in Jizhou City has replaced their windows with glass and uses various glass cups for drinking water. Naturally, beautiful glass is very popular.

Even the windows of the imperial palace were replaced with glass, so Yu Xiuming's glass factory is now famous both at home and abroad. Many people even come here from far away to place orders with Yu Xiuming, just for the same glass as the imperial palace.

By the time Yu Xiuming finally came to his senses, he had already made a fortune. The profits were so great that even Yu Xiuming and his men were surprised. They all wanted to get a piece of the pie, and some even wanted to use their power to get a piece of the pie. But who could offend someone who was protected by the emperor and the regent? Even the regent and the emperor wanted to get a piece of the pie.

But unfortunately, due to the food problem, they did not dare to act rashly. After all, the two kinds of seeds mentioned above were the most important. With this method of making money, even if they could not make money for the time being, Yu Xiuming still needed to pay taxes to the national treasury. So Zhou Qingyun sat back and stopped all those who stretched out their claws, and even took this opportunity to directly cripple them, or find out who was behind these people.

At the same time, Wang Shiyu also deliberately left behind a lot of exploitable resources such as coal and oil, which allowed Yu Xiuming to find a lot of them. Even though he didn't know much about these electrical appliances, oil was a good thing. It was impossible to enter the steam age, but it was still possible to use oil to make other things, such as kerosene or gunpowder, and it could even be used for a lot of improvements.

Yu Xiuming simply bought all the places where coal was developed. A mountain was not expensive, so he turned it into a private venue. Yu Xiuming also began to make a fortune quietly. He gave the explosives he developed directly to City Lord Yu and asked him to distribute them directly. He had enough of this stuff, but if outsiders wanted it, they had to explain the purpose and register it with the government before they could get it. Zhou Qingyun wanted the formula, but was rejected. Even if the formula was destroyed directly, Yu Xiuming would not give it to Zhou Qingyun. Zhou Qingyun had no choice but to buy a lot as inventory and even distributed a lot at various borders.

This was the first time that Yu Xiuming discovered that it was so easy to make money. Now that the weather was getting colder, the temperature in the north was even lower. After the coal came out, it was selling like hot cakes in the north.

Due to equipment reasons, they do not mine deep underground mines and can only mine surface coal. Naturally, the price of coal is also high. Most of the people who buy it are dignitaries. The remaining coal powder and coal flour are mixed with water and reassembled into coal balls, which are then sold to ordinary people. Even so, ordinary people are very happy. At least they don’t need to go up the mountain to chop so much firewood for heating, and even the house is warm, but there is a lot of smoke.
