Chapter 65: The writing is so powerful that it shocks the wind and rain, and the writing makes the gods and ghosts cry!
As the days passed, the weather gradually became hotter. The sun scorched the ground mercilessly, and even the annoying cicadas in the trees began to sing hoarsely.
In the main room at the backyard of the medicine shop.
Su Che was lying on a rattan rocking chair, holding a book in his hand, reading leisurely. The rattan chair was big enough. Zhang Ying was also lying beside it, holding a fan in her hand, fanning herself and Su Che constantly to dispel the heat for them.
Zhang Ying didn't mind the heat, and she didn't know how to avoid it. She stayed close to Su Che because she unexpectedly discovered that Su Che's body was not hot at all, but rather very cool. She regarded Su Che as a magic weapon to cool down.
Su Che read a book for a while and took a sip of juice.
This is orange juice. First, crush the pulp in a mortar, then add some cold water, and finally put some ice cubes, and a cup of cooling juice will be ready.
When Zhang Ying saw Su Che drinking juice, she also came over and asked Su Che to feed her.
After taking a sip, Zhang Ying asked, "This ice drink is really refreshing. It's so hot these days. Your ice business should be profitable, right?"
"Well, the tens of thousands of taels I earned from writing books have doubled and doubled in recent days and turned into hundreds of thousands of taels." Su Che said casually, not taking this little money to heart at all, because this little money was just the beginning in his grand plan.
"Wow? I've made so much money?!" Zhang Ying couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. She was worried about losing money before and didn't sleep well for several nights. She didn't expect to make so much money so quickly!
How much money is a hundred thousand taels? Her monthly pocket money is ten five-zhu coins. How long will it take to spend a hundred thousand taels? It is impossible to spend it all, not even in a lifetime.
"It's not much. I have 120,000 taels of silver on hand now, which is 24,000 taels of gold, or only 1,500 kilograms of gold..." Su Che thought about it for a moment and calculated it directly.
In this era, silver was very valuable, with the exchange rate of gold to silver being 5:1, and one catty in the Han Dynasty weighed sixteen taels.
A pound of gold is worth ten thousand yuan, and eight ounces of silver is worth one thousand yuan.
In other words, Su Che's 1,500 kilograms of gold was equivalent to approximately 15 million five-zhu coins.
This amount of money is considered absolute wealth in Nanyang County. It is only because of the power of the Zhang family that Su Che's wealth can be preserved. Otherwise, it would have been coveted by others long ago, and no one knows what secret means they would use.
Zhang Zonghan was a little surprised at Su Che's ability to make money, but he did not praise him. Instead, he went to talk to him and warned him seriously that if Su Che wanted to do business, it was absolutely not allowed! No matter how much money he made, it was not allowed!
After all, in this era, if you don’t have power, no matter how much money you make, you are just working for others.
Career is everything, power is the foundation!
Su Che also quickly stated that whether studying medicine or making money were just hobbies that he could do besides his official career, and would definitely not hinder his official career. After several promises, his father finally felt relieved.
Fifteen million five- baht coins.
Such a sum of money sounds horrible.
But in fact, it is nothing if placed in the entire Han Dynasty.
According to historical records, Cao Cao's father spent 100 million yuan to buy the position of Grand Marshal, one of the Three Dukes.
Cao Song accepted Liu Hong's exorbitant request in full. He had worked as one of the Nine Ministers of the Empire for decades and had already made a fortune, so he had no shortage of money.
If you spend this 100 million, you can definitely earn more!
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. Cao Song, who had just spent a huge amount of money, happily took office and enjoyed the highest glory of his life. But within half a year, the Yellow Turbans, who had been almost pacified, revived and went on a final madness. In particular, the Yellow Turbans in Runan occupied several counties in Gepi, and seemed to be as brave as Zhang Jue again.
When the Yellow Turbans reappeared, the emperor naturally had to find someone to take the blame. The Grand Marshal was the highest military commander in the empire, so who else would take the blame if not the Grand Marshal?
So, Cao Song spent 100 million to buy the position of Grand Marshal, but he was kicked out before he could even get comfortable in the position.
I have to say that Liu Hong is a really business-minded guy, and he is very good at getting rid of Wuqing.
This happened in Su Che's previous life.
This is not the simulated world yet.
In this world, there is more land and population, and money will also become more inflated, so these 15 million yuan are really nothing. At best, they can only be regarded as a starting point in Su Che's plan.
Su Che clearly remembered his ultimate goal. He wanted to eliminate typhoid fever in the world, but he also wanted to reduce the number of deaths. Therefore, he had to use money to attract people's attention and promote the rapid development of the medical industry.
Whether it is to develop antibiotics in this world or to train a large number of doctors, it will cost a lot of money. In the face of such a great cause, the 15 million cannot sustain the expenses at all, and more money must be raised.
Zhang Ying lay beside Su Che, looking at him infatuatedly, not knowing what she was thinking. Her cheeks gradually turned slightly red.
Zhang Bozu was against Su Che's business at first. It was not easy to study medicine. Su Che was already multitasking, reading other books, and now he wanted to do business. That meant he was multitasking! After doing business, could he still concentrate on studying medicine?
But there was too much money. After Su Che earned more than 100,000 yuan, he spent several thousand taels of silver to renovate the clinic's building and got a more grand plaque. He also spent extra money to renovate the ancestral house and the medicinal field in the backyard. Zhang Bozu couldn't say what he wanted to say.
"I wanted to yell at him, but he gave me too much!"
Zhang Bozu chose to keep his mouth shut.
Unlike Su Che's father, Zhang Bozu never looked down on businessmen. He thought it was amazing that Su Che could make so much money from business. Others could not think of making ice with saltpeter, but he could. This is real talent!
He should make this money!
Su Che, however, is very self-aware.
It is midsummer now and the ice business can still be done, so I will continue to expand the business, accumulate initial capital, and then proceed to the third step of the plan.
It is not difficult to make ice in the summer. Saltpeter can be used to make ice. As long as you understand the principle, it is very easy to replicate it. It is precisely because it is so simple that this business is so easy to expand. But at the same time, problems also arise. This secret is difficult to keep!
As Su Che continued to expand his ice business, competitors inevitably emerged. There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall, and the secret of making ice with saltpeter was eventually stolen by others. Suddenly, there were several competitors, but none of them became successful.
Su Che didn't care about his secret being stolen. He knew clearly that the ice business could only be done in the first year. He could make some money in the second year, but it would be basically impossible in the third year. It would be difficult for him to make money from this business after that.
but.
As long as you make more money in the first year and get some starting capital, that's enough.
In a blink of an eye, the wind blew away the heat and the summer passed.
The ice cube business was successfully completed and Su Che eventually earned 200,000 silver taels.
And Journey to the West was also finished, with the final chapter, [Chapter 100: Returning to the East, the Five Saints Become True! ].
After writing the last word, the pen fell and the wind and rain were shocked. The text moved the gods and ghosts to tears. The heaven and earth changed, and countless wishes gathered together.
Su Che clearly felt this and couldn't help laughing: "I finally feel these powers? Am I qualified to obtain them?"
"I only have these after I finished the book. If it ends badly or is abandoned, I'm afraid they will be gone."
"Maybe by then it won't be the power of will, but the power of resentment!"
