Chapter 290
The operating conditions of the industries under Xiaoyao Villa's name can be summed up in two words: making money.
If I have to use more words to describe it, it would be very profitable, making a lot of money, or making a lot of money every day.
It's actually not surprising when you think about it. Not to mention the commercial street and other businesses in Chang'an City, Lantian County and surrounding counties, the profit situation of the villa in new varieties of crops can no longer be simply described by the word "making money".
.
Take potatoes as an example. Although Li Anran harvested a large amount of potatoes with an exaggerated yield of two hundred stones per mu, very few of these potatoes were actually eaten, and most of them were sold as seeds.
From this alone, Xiaoyao Villa made a lot of money.
In addition to potatoes, there are also corn, sweet potatoes, and new varieties of corn, millet, soybeans, rice, wheat and other crops whose output has increased greatly after time travel, and most of them are sold as seeds.
However, commercial streets including farmers' markets are more profitable than selling grain.
Not counting those shops and houses called villas that are only for rent but are still popular, they can receive a large amount of rent every month. Just those shops left by Xiaoyao Villa and operated on their own every month
Profit is a big number.
In fact, according to Li Anran's plan, one of his most profitable projects includes Gewu Academy. After all, judging from the development of the education industry in later generations, as long as there are enough students, the annual tuition and fees alone will be a huge amount.
Astronomical numbers.
It is a pity that the Gewu Academy is still in the stage of cultivating talents. Most of them are those who have signed a work agreement and then enroll in school with zero tuition and miscellaneous fees. Only a few of them are sent by big families to train them.
manpower.
The most profitable business in Li Anran's hands is not the hot-selling grains or the extremely popular commercial streets, but the shameless reselling of materials. For example, he obtained a large number of artificial gems from modern time and space, as well as palm-sized...
Dressing mirror.
Regardless of the fact that these kind of things are basically luxuries, there are not many that can be really afforded in the Tang Dynasty. But don’t forget, there is more than just the Tang Dynasty in this time and space. Where are the real good things?
Don't worry about selling.
There is also the business of selling spirits to Turks. Don’t look at it as just using simple distillation technology. The original low-quality wine is made into high-strength liquor, or various ingredients are added to brew a special liquor with good taste but high alcohol content. Among them
The profits are huge.
As for the business of selling military green caravans, bicycles, human-powered tricycles and improved horse-drawn carriages to Datang, although some of them did not result in direct profits, sometimes the indirect benefits are much greater than the direct benefits.
.
For example, the gold mine that was discovered in Taibai County and later returned to Li Shimin was used to offset part of the payment and returned to Xiaoyao Villa. After using more advanced mining and refining technology, the benefits were very high.
It's considerable.
According to data obtained from modern time and space, the output of this gold mine in Shaanxi Province ranks among the top three in the province. The proven reserves alone are 40 tons, and the total reserves are about 100 tons.
That's a huge sum of money in modern time and space.
Not to mention the two fields of Huangshi Mine and Chicken Blood Stone Mine that Li Shimin half sold and half gave away because he didn't know the specific value. If he could sell all the mined stones, even if he only sold the raw stones instead of the finished products, how valuable would they be?
Even the city is not an exaggeration.
Li Anran felt very at ease with Li Shimin's reaction. After all, he had done so many things for Datang, and the benefits he received from the other party were much greater than his efforts. It was understandable to take some benefits.
"Master, this is how the family's accounts are. Do you have any new plans?" After reporting on the operating conditions of the villa's industry, Xiang Quhu said with his charming big eyes as he closed the account.
"Yun'er, you've worked hard during this period. The villa's industry has developed so well, and it's all thanks to you." Li Anran, who was very satisfied with the results, nodded with a smile, and then said: "As for
I do have some new plans."
"Master, can you tell me a little bit?" Xiangyun, who found that he had fewer and fewer things to take care of since the villa's property was on the right track, was feeling a little uncomfortable during this period of time, so he asked with interest.
.
"Haha... you, it seems that I was right before, you are a hard worker!" Li Anran, who knew that the other party was very talented in business operations and was also very interested, nodded on the other party's smooth forehead.
, smiled.
"Master! Yun'er also wants to stay at home to be a husband and raise a child, but..." Recalling that the two of them had been together for such a long time, Xiangyun had no intention of getting pregnant at all. Xiangyun, who had long been anxious, looked resentful.
said.
"Yun'er, I can't blame you for this matter." Seeing that this matter was mentioned, Li Anran quickly comforted him: "How dare you know about your young master's special situation? I can't do anything about the heir's problem.
Being able to resign oneself to fate rather than being impatient is a reward."
In fact, Li Anran himself is very confused about the fact that he has not been able to have an offspring until now. It is understandable that the two girls Anne and Lisa in modern time and space have not been able to conceive offspring for themselves. After all, both parties
Being together, to put it bluntly, we just get what we need. Although they didn't wear "little raincoats" when they had sex, both women took flowers to prevent pregnancy afterwards.
But in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty, whether it was with Su Xiaomei, Xiangyun, or after having sex with Xiangling and Qingwen who were admitted to the room later, I wished in my heart that I could get pregnant with the four daughters as soon as possible.
But I have never taken any medicine like this.
It would be okay if she couldn't get pregnant in a short time, but it has been more than a year since she came to the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, with the physical fitness enhanced by time and space travel, Li Anran's performance can be described as singing every night.
The nightlife is also not good at all.
It was better when she was with Xiangling and Qingwen. After all, the two women had not undergone "ascension to the upper world" and received "spiritual energy" transformation, and they still had normal physiques. They would often be killed in about half an hour and lose their armor.
Tossing and falling asleep.
But Su Xiaomei and Xiangyun's physiques are stronger than those of ordinary strong men. They often spend most of the night struggling. And Li Anran did not deliberately stop the two women from wanting to conceive a child for themselves. The seeds that should be sown have never been
It’s been broadcast frequently.
Sometimes, you can sow several times in one night. And with the convenience of the thick and long seeds, you can always easily send the seeds to the place where they should go. But even so, it can be regarded as being with you from the beginning.
On both sides, I still haven't been able to get pregnant.
Regarding this issue, Li Anran initially thought that the two women were infertile. However, after Sun Changgeng, Sun Simiao and his own examination, he could basically confirm that the bodies of the two women were not only normal, but also very healthy.
As for the possibility of his own body, Li Anran had not never thought about it. But he took the time to go to the hospital on Yingzhou Island No. 2 in modern time for a check-up and found that there was nothing wrong with his seeds. To use a jargon, the activity was very high.
good.
Seeing that this problem was neither on the woman nor on himself, Li Anran thought about it and finally could only attribute the cause of this result to the "side effects" of time and space travel, and the solution was still
No clue.
In order to explain and appease the two girls who wanted to give birth to children for him, Li Anran had to find an excuse that the immortal's physique was special and the possibility of having children with mortals was extremely low. This was considered to be a temporary solution to the problem.
.
"Master, is it possible that Yun'er really can't give birth to a child for the master?" Xiangyun, who was mentioned about the sad incident, leaned on the generous and safe chest, said with red eyes and a somewhat depressed expression.
"Shouldn't I say it? This kind of thing depends on God's will. It's good to have it, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't. The young master will still love you." Seeing that it was not a problem to continue like this, Li Anran said a few words of comfort.
, quickly changed the topic and said:
"Yun'er, during this time, you must be prepared and properly hand over the work in the villa to the people below. Master, I have big things to do later, and I will definitely take you and Mei'er away by then.
