Chapter 010: Rectification
Since Xu Qingshan's appointment as the head of the Xu family has been decided, many things will naturally follow naturally, Xu Yuanhao's father and son were completely abolished and left in the Xu family ancestral hall, and no one cares about them anymore.
Originally, according to Xu Fusheng's intentions, he didn't plan to leave any troubles, but Xu Qingshan strongly objected, and what he did at this moment was too desperate and would not be beneficial to the Xu family, so Xu Fusheng had no choice but to give up.
When Xu Qingshan asked about his next plans, Xu Fusheng refused to go to the Seven Star Dao Academy. Xu Qingshan strongly refused to let go, but he couldn't resist Xu Fusheng's temperament, so he had to hand over the business he was responsible for to his son.
Xu Fusheng, who had already had an established plan for his own arrangement, took all the information about the Xu family's business and secretly thought about how to develop next.
At present, the Xu family does not have much business, there is only a pharmacy called Yaobaozhai, and a cloth shop, and there is a small iron mine in Xu's village, because the scale is too small, so the official will turn a blind eye to the forces in the village to control.
In many villages in the capital, there are such mineral resources that are not worthy of official mining, and the officials of this era did not recognize the preciousness of mineral resources.
Therefore, as long as it is not a super-large mineral resource, a large iron ore that can be used by the official to build cold weapons, and the small ones are generally owned by whoever owns them, which is the so-called private mining in the previous life.
Xu Fusheng, who has always been in the Internet business in his previous life, has always been very interested in physical business, but at that time, the control was too strict, and he never had much opportunity to interfere.
Now seeing these materials, he is naturally very interested, and after reading all the materials with relish, he immediately rushed to Xu's village with a young man arranged by Xu Qingshan to familiarize him with the family business.
As soon as he entered the so-called mineral realm of the Xu family, a strange smell almost washed him to the ground.
Xu Fusheng looked around and glared angrily. Outside the mine are low and dilapidated shacks, and even people wonder if the pig kennel will be more decent than this, and the sewage of various colors flows everywhere outside the mine, and the strange smell is emanating from here.
At this time, the villagers who were mining had already gotten up and were lining up to have breakfast. Outside the mine, there was a huge iron pot in the middle of the clearing, and the pot was full of gray-green porridge-like things.
A tall and fat overseer is handing out spoonfuls of "porridge" to the villagers. Xu Fusheng frowned and stepped forward, and was almost knocked down by the smell of the "porridge" again.
Xu Fusheng forcibly walked to the side of the pot, took the spoon from the overseer's hand, scooped up a spoonful and looked at it carefully, the gray-green soup was piled with unknown leaves, and it could be seen that he had not cut it at all.
The "porridge" was sticky, and a bubble flipped up, bringing out a worm that had already been cooked. Xu Fusheng's breakfast was squirming wildly in his stomach, and he quickly looked away from the spoonful of porridge, but saw a group of villagers staring at this "meaty" with bright eyes, and their throats couldn't stop rolling up and down.
Xu Fusheng's face was extremely ugly, and he stared at the overseer who was distributing the food and asked, "Who is here to prepare the food for these workers?"
The overseer felt bad: "Back to my lord, I am in charge." ”
"Are you the one who buys food to cooks?" "Yes, sir. ”
"Damn! The Xu family gives you 10 taels of silver every month, is that to make things that these pigs don't eat?" Xu Fusheng kicked out, kicked the overseer to the ground, and rushed up and continued to kick his body.
A few overseers who were watching from the side hurriedly pulled him away. The overseer who was beaten got up, wiped the blood from his face, and showed a fierce and scoundrel look: "Young master, Steward Xu only gave me four taels of silver every month. If you want to find him, you have to find him first.
What's more, he looked around viciously, and the villagers who were swept by his gaze all flinched back, "Just these workers! I am willing to feed them with one tael of silver a month, which is already very conscientious!"
Xu Fusheng was trembling with anger, and he stared at the two overseers who were still holding his arms, and the two hurriedly let go of their hands and stood aside.
Xu Fusheng froze: "It seems that you have a good relationship, I started beating people on my own territory, and I dared to stop it, hehe, hehe." ”
The overseer who was beaten ignored Xu Fusheng's threat, and said, "Young master, you also know that there are few people in our Xujia Village, and you drove away a few of us, but you will never find other people to work for you."
It's not like you're going to Jinyang City to find someone to do this kind of rough work, right? Besides, why do you want to dirty your hands for these villagers' coolies? Just leave it to us. In this way, you only need to give me 6 taels of silver every month in the future. ”
These overseers are all obviously the only ones who are tall overseers. Xu Fusheng was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "Then so be it." But now the mine itself does not produce much, and if you give them such food, how can they have the strength to work, and besides, they are all villagers of the same village. ”
The tall overseer laughed and said, "You can rest assured that you will leave this place to me." I promise they'll work like boars in heat, and I've always managed it that way. ”
Before Xu Ergou's laughter was over, it was replaced by a muffled snort, and then his square face turned purple and red, and he slowly fell down with his hand under his crotch. After the huge body fell, Xu Fusheng with a calm face appeared behind him.
Xu Fusheng was very satisfied with the effect of his legs, and he was quite comfortable with his body. Although the challenge with Xu Yuanhao was dangerous, it also helped him a lot in tempering his Tai Chi body method.
Now to deal with such an ordinary person who doesn't know anything about martial arts, isn't it easy to catch it?
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other overseers had the intention of rushing up, Xu Fusheng snorted coldly and said, "If you guys think you're living too long, you might as well try it."
Xu Fusheng remained silent, stepped on Xu Ergou's ankle with one foot, and used the dark energy, and in the sound of "clicking", the bones were already smashed.
In Xu Ergou's screams like killing pigs, the overseers were shocked. Xu Fusheng picked up Xu Ergou again, pressed his face on the cauldron that was still on the blazing fire, a puff of light smoke rose, and Xu Ergou fainted after just barking twice.
Xu Fusheng threw Xu Ergou in front of the overseers, and at this moment, half of his face was already charred and black, and his flesh and blood were blurred.
In his previous life, he didn't know how much bloody he had experienced, and he was naturally indifferent to such a scene. The overseers in the village were pale and trembling.
Xu Fusheng pointed to one of the little men who trembled the most, and scared him to the ground. "You, from tomorrow onwards, you will be the head of this, and you will still give you 10 taels of silver every month, and you will give them to me to eat and drink!
As for this waste," Xu Fusheng kicked Xu Ergou in front of the overseers, and said coldly: "Grandma, don't you think that the villagers who are mining are all pigs?
"Do as I say! If any of you are unhappy, just replace him! It seems that the Xu family has spoiled you all, and wants to give me a dismount, damn, if you make Lao Tzu unhappy, you will all give Lao Tzu to mine tomorrow!" Xu Fusheng threw down a sentence, turned around and continued to walk forward.
In the low and damp pit, Xu Fusheng watched the villagers swing the hammer on the ground, and a few coolies held on to the iron hammer and hit it hard.
Watching the shiny ore fall one by one, Xu Fusheng was also the first time to see such a scene, and he couldn't help but look more and more ugly, but this era can only be like this, and there is really no good way.
Just as Xu Fusheng's mood became worse and worse, a five-year-old and three-year-old overseer shouted angrily: "Damn, dare to be lazy for me!" ”
Xu Fusheng couldn't help but shout and said, "Stop!"
The foreman's arm raised in mid-air immediately stopped, and he hurriedly ran over and nodded: "What do you command?"
Xu Fusheng glanced at the coolie shivering on the ground, this coolie looked to be in his forties, skinny, and his face was wrinkled, and every wrinkle was filled with black mineral powder. A pair of glazed, cloudy eyes were filled with fear.
The old man was wearing only a linen shirt that could not be seen in its original color, and several deep bruises could be clearly seen on the exposed skin.
The old man glanced at the foreman who was eyeing him, gritted his teeth and got up, and gripped the hammer again, and the hammer fell, and the great pain made his face twitch.
The old man squinted, waiting for the hammer to fall again, but he didn't wait. He opened his eyes strangely and saw a snow-white cotton cloth in front of him.
The old man looked up and saw Xu Fusheng's gentle fat face. "Let's pad it. Xu Fusheng said softly. The old man hesitated for a long time before taking the piece of cotton cloth with trembling hands, and the blood quickly stained it with a few snow-red plum blossoms.
Xu Fusheng turned around, the smile on his face disappeared, and he said sharply to the foreman beside him: "There is no absolute necessity in the future, don't whip these coolies again!" After a pause, he said: "Who dares to treat Lao Tzu's workers like this again, Lao Tzu will let you be the same as that Xu Ergou, hum." ”
Xu Yipin, who was following him, said softly: "Brother Fusheng, why are you so good to those workers." ”
Xu Fusheng smiled and said: "Be kind to everyone who creates wealth for you!"
"Then why are you so fierce with those foremen?"
"Hehe, don't be cruel to them, how do they know to treat Lao Tzu's people well, without the hard work of those miners, do I expect them to mine for me. Xu Fusheng was still angry: "Let's stay here for a few days in the future, and we must kill this crooked wind for me." ”
When Xu Fusheng drilled out of the pit, the sun was already close to the West Mountain, and he had been in the pit for most of the day unconsciously.
He carefully observed almost every step of the process, and perhaps in the eyes of the coolies, it would be strange to him what he was doing.
But Xu Fusheng understands that no kind of wealth is at his fingertips.
Dark, damp, noisy, and unpleasant smells were nothing, he had done everything he could in his previous life for wealth. No hardship can be compared to the temptation of wealth. In his eyes, the pitch-black raw ore was all emitting a golden glow.
Since dealing with the iron ore, Xu Fusheng's temperament and taste have flown to the nine heavens outside the clouds, and after a few days, Xu Fusheng and the coolies have been crawling and rolling, and each link has to be carefully observed, and the appearance of the entire pit has obviously taken on a new look.
At sunset, Xu Fusheng and several foremen gathered in the small dining room, eating improved food, and dealt with it in one meal.
It's been a whole week, and Xu Yipin behind him can't bear it, but Xu Fusheng is still thinking about how to increase production and increase output.
This is a time of paranoia.
