Cultivation in the starry sky

Chapter 7 Buying a Business
In this way, he finally rushed towards Huayin, and within a few days, he finally arrived at Huayin City.

"It's finally here!" Xiao Ziyu sighed with emotion.

"Should I go to apprentice now?" Xiao Ziyu was a little uncertain.

"No, let's do some business first and make some money! Martial arts training is very costly. Poor and rich in martial arts, Huashan is definitely not rich now, and I don't have much money to assist myself in practicing martial arts."

"Yes, let's make money first, and then go to apprenticeship, and just prepare for the apprenticeship ceremony, so that Lao Yue is reluctant to give up, so double insurance."

Xiao Ziyu decided on this, to do business in Huayin County first, and then to make money.

Fortunately, he still has a few thousand taels of silver in his hand, and has capital. "What business do you do?" Xiao Ziyu fell into thinking again.

On this day, Xiao Ziyu walked around the entire Huayin County to see what business opportunities there were.In the end, Xiao Ziyu decided to do the 'wine' business.

There is no distilled wine in this era, so the alcohol content is very low, and the whole wine is also very turbid, except for a few high-end wines.

Ordinary wine, in Xiao Ziyu's eyes, is like horse urine.So he thought of opening a 'wine cellar', or even a restaurant.

Just do it.

First of all, Xiao Ziyu spent a few hundred taels of silver to buy a courtyard with four entrances and four exits as his temporary 'base'.

To be honest, the house price in Huayin is really cheap.Xiao Ziyu felt that the few hundred taels was really a good deal, and his other courtyard was about ten acres in size.

It would definitely be a mansion in the later generations of Earth.

After settling down his residence, Xiao Ziyu was ready to start the work of 'making wine'.

First of all, Xiao Ziyu asked a craftsman to make some distillation tools for him.This is not troublesome at all, Xiao Ziyu directly found the county magistrate in the Huayin county mansion, and offered dozens of taels of silver.

There are still people in the government, so it's easy to do things!
In just a few days, the county magistrate found a dozen craftsmen for Xiao Ziyu, and soon helped Xiao Ziyu build this set of stills.

After that, Xiao Ziyu nestled in his own "Xiangshan" courtyard and began to "brew wine".Of course his 'winemaking' is not real winemaking.

After all, he doesn't know how to 'make wine', and he doesn't have those tools.He just bought a lot of ordinary wine from a few cellars.They are then filtered and distilled.

After more than ten days of continuous work, Xiao Ziyu finally 'brewed' all the one thousand catties of wine they bought.

Looking at the wine jar in front of him, there is almost no impurity in the sparkling wine, which is extremely mellow.Xiao Ziyu knew he had succeeded.

The fine wine he's 'brewed' now is definitely the top fine wine in the world.

"No, this kind of wine can't be sold directly like this, it should be lowered a bit," Xiao Ziyu murmured while looking at the clear wine.

He still understands the principle of "Huaiyu's crime" very well.Now that he doesn't have much strength, he will definitely not be able to keep it.

Once it enters the market, it will definitely be coveted.Maybe his own life would be gone.This Xiaoao world is very dark.

So, he walked out of the room and came to the front yard. When he saw an old man with white hair, he said to him: "Old Yang, you go and tell Zhang Qing and Li Shu to buy me another five hundred catties Here comes the wine."

"Yes, sir," the white-haired old man nodded respectfully.

This white-haired old man was the housekeeper Xiao Ziyu was looking for. He was originally a scholar when he was young.As a scholar of the Ming Dynasty, of course he had to live by taking exams.

But in the end, after more than 20 years of examination, he was also a scholar, so the old man gave up. When I was in my 30s, I got married and had children.

But it's a pity because his wife and children died later.Just leave him as an old man.Later, when he met Xiao Ziyu, Xiao Ziyu saw that he was pitiful, and that he was honest and literate, so he brought him back to Huayin and became his housekeeper.

As for Zhang Qing and Li Shu, they are from Huayin, and more importantly, they are disciples of Huashan School.

But don't get me wrong, they are just outer disciples of Huashan Sect.

Coming to Huayin County at the foot of Huashan Mountain, Xiao Ziyu also understood that the Huashan School is actually divided into inner sect and outer sect.

This inner sect is like Linghu Chong who has good qualifications and is directly accepted as a disciple by Yue Buqun, while the outer sect disciples are all disciples of good families in Huayin County.Their elders were originally tenants of the Huashan School.

They sent their children to the mountains, and the Huashan faction did not want to disappoint the "good intentions" of these tenants.But those people are poorly qualified.So I casually passed on some of their boxing and kick training skills, and let them go down the mountain after a few years.

Over time, this formed the division of the outer door and the inner door.

That Zhang Qing and Li Shu were disciples of the same generation as Yue Buqun.It's a pity that Yue Buqun is from the inner sect, they are only from the outer sect.

And Xiao Ziyu felt that once his business grew, it was inevitable that some people would try to get his idea.So he made arrangements in advance, and spent money to hire disciples from Huashan's outer sect like Zhang Qing to act as his guards.

Of course, these outer disciples of the Huashan School are also very willing.After they 'graduated' from the Huashan School, they did similar jobs, such as looking after the home, guarding the home, running escorts, and so on.

And the master Xiao Ziyu is very generous.

Besides, although they are outer disciples of the Huashan School, their martial arts skills are not very high, and in Xiao Ziyu's eyes, they are about the same as him.The most powerful person Xiao Ziyu saw was only a third-rate master who had just opened up his dantian, that's all.

The two received orders from Steward Yang.Hearing that their master wanted to buy another five hundred catties of wine.All of a sudden they smacked their tongues in their hearts.

"Our little master is really rich. Half a month ago, he bought a thousand catties, and now he wants to buy five hundred catties, tsk tsk!"

Li Shu couldn't help but click his tongue.

"Okay, don't say too much, we are just servants, and we will complete the task according to the master's instructions. This little master is good to us. I don't want to lose this job because you can't control your mouth."

Zhang Qing was a few years older than Li Shu, and he was much more stable. He glanced at Li Shu and solemnly told him.

"Don't worry, Brother Zhang, I know." Li Shu also knew what to say and what not to say.

It took the two of them a long time to finally bring back Xiao Ziyu's five hundred catties of wine, and this time it cost him another 100 taels of silver.

Xiao Ziyu saw that the wine he wanted had arrived, so he ordered them to move the wine to a wine cellar in the backyard.

Then he rewarded Zhang Qing and Li Shu with a few taels of silver, which immediately made them laugh with joy.

After Xiao Ziyu left Hou, Li Shu immediately grinned and said, "Master is really generous. In just a few days, he has rewarded me with a total of ten taels of silver."

"Okay, don't laugh. We still go to inspect the mansion. The master hired us to look after his house."Zhang Qing weighed the money in his hand, and his gratitude to Xiao Ziyu increased a little.Secretly decided to protect Xiao Ziyu well.

Entering his distillation room with a jar of ten catties of wine, Xiao Ziyu murmured: "It cost another 100 taels. If I don't make more money, I can only go to beg for food."

When he came to Huayin County, only 1000 taels of his thousands of taels of silver were left.For more than half a month, he spent no less than 3000 taels of silver.Of course, apart from buying this other hospital, everything else is spent on taking care of the Huayin county government.

This "county magistrate of broken family, governor of Miemen" is not just for fun.

Immediately after Xiao Ziyu added some ordinary wine to the jar of distilled wine, the jar of wine gradually changed its color, and it was no longer as clear as before.

This is the best way, Xiao Ziyu tried to run several types, so that they can be divided into different varieties.The price can be divided in the future.

"Very good", Xiao Ziyu tasted every kind of wine, and felt that even the one that sold out the most was much better than the ordinary wine he bought.

Moreover, the wine he distilled was much more spicy and mellow than the bought wine.

"That's it", it feels almost, "It should be sold".

This time, the wine he distilled left less than four hundred catties, which was originally one thousand catties.It can be seen that after distillation and filtration, a lot of losses have been lost.

But this time he ran out another 800 catties of wine, and now he has a total of more than [-] catties of 'new products'.

"By the way, I should give him a name. What kind of name should I choose?" Xiao Ziyu was lost in thought.
