The Daily Life of a Rich Peasant's Boy in the Imperial Examination

After County Magistrate Wang returned to the yamen, he thought more and more that Sun Shan taking him to the experimental field had a different meaning.

As soon as the bell rang for the end of get off work, I ran home as if I was being chased by a ghost.

County Magistrate Wang's wife saw her husband running with sweat all over his face and asked in confusion, "Master, what are you doing? Why are you running so fast?"

Could it be that he is thinking about that vixen from the third room again?

Recently, the Third Aunt learned some tricks from somewhere, and she has bewitched County Magistrate Wang so much that he keeps hanging out there all day.

Mrs. Wang was so angry that if her son had not gradually taken charge, her grandson would not have studied hard.

Mrs. Wang will definitely use some secret tricks to teach Third Aunt a lesson.

County Magistrate Wang looked at the aging and plump Madam Wang and shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Women should not interfere in men's affairs."

This daughter-in-law was the one my father asked for, and County Magistrate Wang didn't like her at all.

But thinking about the two sons she had given birth to for his family, and the fact that his sons had given birth to a group of grandchildren, she endured it.

Anyway, life goes by quickly, so just be patient and you will get through it.

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she was about to refute.

County Magistrate Wang didn't give her any chance and ran to find his second brother. His second brother knew the business matters best.

After hearing what County Magistrate Wang said, Mr. Wang pondered for a while and saw that there was no one around.

He whispered, "Brother, does this bird droppings really increase rice production? Are you sure?"

They knew that it increased vegetable production, but now that it has really increased rice production, they have become skeptical.

That's rice, it's food, it's the foundation of a country. If production increases, it's a big deal.

County Magistrate Wang said seriously, "It's absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes."

After a pause, he added, "Of course, it will take some time until the rice is ripe and harvested and weighed before we can officially confirm it."

It is almost certain that Sun Shan’s experimental field will have a bumper harvest, which means that bird droppings are useful.

Mr. Wang said happily, "Brother, this guano business is booming. Just think about it, if guano could really increase grain production, even the poorest and most destitute farmers would buy it, even on credit. This Mr. Sun is truly capable; he's actually been able to make guano. Oh my god, this is extraordinary, extraordinary."

He has only been here for half a year and has already produced bird droppings that benefit the country and the people.

Emma, ​​if you stay in Yuanlu for a long time, wouldn’t Yuanlu become prosperous?

County Magistrate Wang nodded and said, "I see Lord Sun has been waiting for me today, asking me to follow him to see the so-called experimental fields. Haha, Lord Sun wants to sell guano, but how can he do that without our Wang family?"

Mr. Wang quickly asked, "Brother, do you know how to make bird droppings?"

County Magistrate Wang rolled his eyes at Master Wang, shook his head, and said, "How could Lord Sun tell me such a confidential matter? He's been with the hawker for so long, and he still can't figure out how to make it. Alas, this must be a unique skill."

Mr. Wang whispered, "Brother, Lord Sun took you out today to show you the thriving rice. He must be looking for a partnership with us to sell guano together."

If you want to sell it separately, why would you bring County Magistrate Wang with you to check it out?

Although Lord Sun is young, he has a lot of ideas. He plans every step carefully and everything he does has its meaning.

County Magistrate Wang agreed, nodded, and said, "He can't sell guano on his own, so he'll naturally seek cooperation with our Wang family."

After a pause, he asked, "Second brother, how do you think he plans to cooperate with us?"

Mr. Wang thought for a while and guessed, "Lord Sun must want our money and our people. To sell guano, the county has to make it, and this process inevitably requires money and people."

Lord Sun is a farmer's son, his family has no background, and when he came to the unfamiliar Yuanlu, he had no one around.

"Our family has money and connections, and with Lord Sun's method, this is undoubtedly the best choice. Haha, if Lord Sun doesn't cooperate with us sooner, who else can we find?"

The two Wang brothers were very happy to hear this.

County Magistrate Wang smiled and said, "We have to find a day to go to Big Bird Village in person to take a look. We won't feel at ease until we see it in person."

Mr. Wang thought so too, and said with a slight smile: "Brother, I will go there in a couple of days. I am worried about the servants watching over it. If the whole back mountain is covered with bird droppings, we can sell it for a long time.

Haha, we not only sell it in Yuanlu, but also in the neighboring county and even in Chenzhou Prefecture. Haha, this business is going well.”

The two brothers looked at each other again and couldn't help but laugh.

Mr. Wang asked again, "Brother, do you want to take the initiative to talk to Lord Sun about cooperation?"

Doing business requires both initiative and passivity. The Wang family did not want to be too proactive, lest they appear eager and be seen through by Sun Shan.

County Magistrate Wang shook his head and waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry. The next spring plowing season is still a long way off. Haha, go check it out first, and we'll discuss it when you come back. Let's wait and see what happens next, and see what Lord Sun decides to do."

Mr. Wang said with a grin, "Okay, I'll listen to you, big brother. You'll be in charge of the government, and I'll be in charge of the business. If we two brothers work together, one inside and one outside, hehe, our Wang family will surely prosper and reach new heights."

County Magistrate Wang and Mr. Wang were watching the situation, while Sun Shan was waiting for an opportunity.

The first rabbit that bumped into him, no, it should be said that there were three rabbits, were the three wealthy businessmen who had given Sun Shan the "Yangzhou Skinny Horse" last time.

Sun Shan took a sip of tea, sat quietly on the high hall, and looked at the three wealthy businessmen intently.

He rolled his eyes and asked casually, "Are you here to buy guano?"

As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting, and some feelings need to be fought out.

Not long ago, three wealthy businessmen flattered Sun Shan and offended him.

At the same time, it also made Sun Shan deeply impressed by them, and made the people around Sun Shan very familiar with them.

Just now, three rich businessmen said they wanted to buy bird droppings, and because they looked familiar, they reported it.

Ordinary people would not receive such treatment.

Rich Businessman A only dared to sit on the edge of the stool with his big butt, leaning sideways, looking at Sun Shan with his head lowered and the look of a villain.

He said flatteringly, "Yes, Lord Sun. Yesterday we heard that the government office had guano for sale, so we immediately came to find you. This guano is a good thing, we must hurry to buy it. Haha, Lord Sun, we still have a few acres of thin land, and we also want to increase the grain production."

Rich Merchants B and C echoed in agreement, "That's right, Mr. Sun. We're here to buy guano. It's such a good thing, and we're afraid we'll miss out if we're too late."

Sun Shan shook his head and said, "Where can I buy guano now? I'll have to wait until next spring plowing."

When Rich Merchant A heard this, he immediately said, "Master Sun, next year is next year. Let's register first, hehe, and then come back to buy it when it's available."

After a pause, he added: "Sir, we can give you silver first, hehe, and then come and get it when there is bird droppings."

Sun Shan looked at the three wealthy businessmen meaningfully. Perhaps they were not here just to buy bird droppings?

Could it be that he smelled a business opportunity and wanted to get a piece of the pie?

It's not easy to bring it up directly, so why are you beating around the bush to test the situation?

Sun Shan blinked his eyes, blazing like torches.

I have long seen through the intentions of these three businessmen.
