Chapter 172: Stability

When Gao Yang returned to the courtyard, Su Fu's house was still lit up, and Yurong was guarding outside, and when he saw Gao Yang coming back, he called Gao Yang, "Senior executive, Lang Jun is waiting for you." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Since arriving in Jiangning Mansion, everyone has collectively referred to Su Fu as Langjun and Gao Yang as the steward.

Gao Yang answered, and followed Yurong in.

Su Fu was still dressed in daytime, did not wash, while playing chess with Su Zhao under the oil lamp, and when Gao Yang came, she stopped procrastinating, and directly played a son to seal Su Zhao's retreat.

Su Zhao put away the chess pieces stupidly, focusing on studying the chess pieces on the chessboard, thinking carefully about every move they had just made in chess.

Su Fu stood up and sat in the outer room, looked at Gao Yangdao, "What do you think of Liu Cheng?" ”

Gao Yang nodded and said, "Available." ”

She also believed in Liu Cheng's ability, so she simply stopped talking about Liu Cheng and said directly, "Tomorrow you go to the ferry at the North City Gate." ”

The Yangtze River passes through the Xicheng and Beicheng of Jiangning, and there are many valuable goods here in Xicheng, and Beicheng there because of the passing through the market, generally ships with valuables will not stop at the ferry port of Beichengmen.

Therefore, there are not many Lifu at the North City Gate Ferry, and the wages received by Lifu are very small, and there are only two copper plates for each cargo, which is still a slightly larger cargo, if it is not big or small, the steward on the ship can press a copper plate.

But the Lifu there is not picky, no matter what your size is, how strong you are, as long as you are willing to do it, it doesn't matter what else matters.

Therefore, for the North City Gate Ferry, Lifu seems to be very scattered, and it will not be as united as the Lifu of the West City Gate Ferry.

And, when it comes to contracts, they rarely take them seriously.

If a merchant ship comes, it will definitely go up and loot.

Compared with the West City Gate Ferry, the business of the North City Gate is really difficult to do.

But if you don't subdue the Lifu of the North City Gate, the price of the West City Gate will not rise at all.

This is why she handed over the west city gate, which has a lot of oil and water, to Liu Cheng, who was only thirteen years old, and handed over the north city gate to Gao Yang.

Gao Yang nodded, he had already made preparations, and just asked, "What does Lang Jun plan to let me do?" ”

Su Fu said the method he had been thinking about for the past two days, "You are now looking for a few Li Fu who are easy to be bought at the North City Gate, you don't need to let them sign the deed, just say how many copper plates they have received from the merchant ship steward all day, and you will give him how many copper plates, and when other Li Fu is extremely red and goes to look for you, you don't easily agree." ”

Gao Yang listened to what she said and immediately understood her intentions.

She just wants to give a few Lifu a taste of sweetness first, attract other Lifu to flock to it, and when those Lifu feel that they can't ask for it, she will catch it all.

His concern at the moment was that this method would last for a few days.

Su Fu thought about it and said, "Half a month." ”

Half a month later, like the West City Gate Ferry, let those Lifu sign the deed, although the Lifu of the North City Gate did not fancy the contract, but the government took a fancy to it, and the contract on the breach of contract and the penalty was clearly written, and those Lifu did not dare to easily disobey it.

As long as she has half a month to complete the north city gate, the action of the west city gate will be particularly easy to do.

Since then, Gao Yang has been going out early and returning late every day, with those Lifu, Lifu is at the ferry, and he is in the tea shop.

After half a month like this, everything was as Su Fu said, and all the Lifu at the North City Gate were hooked.

And the north gate, like the west gate, when all the lifu were in one place, the steward of the merchant ship was also helpless to raise the wages of each cargo to three copper plates.

And although the things carried by the north city gate are not very important, they can't hold many things, with an average of 300 pieces of goods per day, and 900 copper plates a day.

Fifteen lifu, because these lifu basically ate the last meal but did not have the next meal, so they were all paid on a daily basis, thirty pieces per person per day, which was basically twice as high as before.

In addition to Fu Lifu's wages, there are still more than 400 copper plates left in Gao Yang's hands in a day.

Although it is not much money, it is already a small profit compared to the West City Gate.

And halfway through July, after the Lifu at the North City Gate had gathered, Liu Cheng saw Su Fu again at dusk, and when he returned the next day, the merchant ship steward at the ferry found that the wages for each piece of Lifu's cargo had become seven copper plates.

Generally speaking, the salary left by the merchant to the steward is ten copper plates for each piece of goods, and when there were five copper plates before, the merchant ship steward could still share five or five points with the lifu, and when the seven copper plates were reached, the steward of the merchant ship could only share three or seven points with the lifu.

The steward gritted his teeth and agreed.

It is better to have than nothing, fifty pieces of cargo on a ship, and three copper plates are deducted from each cargo, and one hundred and fifty copper plates can be obtained in a day, although a little less, but there is still a few meals of wine.

Moreover, the most important thing is that apart from these Lifu, they can't get off the ship and go to the city full of people to move things, and if they let them carry the goods themselves, it is better to kill them directly.

From mid-July onwards, Liu Cheng received 1,400 copper plates a day.

When the whole month of July was over, the silver in Liu Cheng's hand was thirty-six taels, and after deducting Lifu's wages, he only earned six taels of silver this month.

Although the money was small, Liu Cheng still had a smile on his face.

This was the first time because he could earn six taels of silver a month, of course, this method was not what he thought.

At the beginning of August, when Liu Cheng went to pay the account, Su Fu did not accept six taels of silver, but only said that it was Liu Cheng's salary, so he let Liu Cheng go.

The North City Gate Ferry was half a month later than the West City Gate Ferry, and in this half a month, Gao Yang also earned six taels of silver.

Gao Yang's salary was set by Su Fu, at the beginning it was ten taels of silver, and if there was a change in the future, it would increase upward, so Gao Yang handed over the six taels of silver to Su Fu.

In August, Gao Yang and Liu Cheng were instructed to keep the price unchanged, so that the steward of the merchant ship could stabilize his mood, so that a steward would not have an undeserved thought and report to his master's house.

At that time, the movement of the dock will be in everyone's eyes.

But this is not the time, she can only be careful.

In the blink of an eye, she has been in Jiangning Mansion for more than a month.

When he was in Linchuan County, the letter that Jiang Luo handed over to him was still in the baggage.

Before, life was not stable, and she didn't want to show up and cause trouble, but now, after everything is calm, she has to do what needs to be done.

For example, see a person, Jiang Luo's father, Jiang Fan, a bachelor of Hanlin.

She has been in Nantang for more than a month, and she already knows almost all the news she should know.

The current saint of the Southern Tang Dynasty has been on the throne for a year, and this saint is a person who loves to write poems, and even recruited Jiang Fan, a bachelor of Hanlin, to enter the palace to chant poems, and will even find a good number of painters outside the palace to paint in the palace.

This saint is a very vassal and elegant man.

Although Jiang Fan is just a literati, he has no power.

But now that Jiang Fan has been summoned by the Holy Lord many times, the magnates in Beijing dare not provoke him.

It's time for her to start looking for a backer for herself. (To be continued.) )
