Chapter 489: Eliminate Guo Demon's Iniquity
Kaifeng Mansion, northern suburbs.
A man in white stood on the mound and spoke to the people around him with an impassioned expression.
“...... Since the founding of my Taizu, although there are natural disasters from time to time, but never as in recent years, natural disasters continue, there are droughts in summer, ice disasters in winter, it is recorded in the history books, but whenever this happens, there will be demons in the world to make chaos.....! ”
"Demons?"
"Think about it, what kind of anomalies have appeared in Henan Province in recent years?"
At this time, a group of people passed by, only to see one of the young men suddenly said: "If you want to talk about vision, it must be that Guo Dan, a humble businessman, who actually contracted four state capitals, and since ancient times, there has never been such a thing." ”
A beautiful young woman beside him couldn't help but widen her eyes and looked at the young man in surprise.
The man in white said excitedly: "This benevolent brother is very right, I think that Guo Dan is a demon. ”
"Destroy the demon Guo Dan."
The young man who passed by raised his arms and shouted as he walked forward.
The man on the hill immediately raised his arms in response.
"Destroy the demon Guo Dan!"
"Destroy the demon Guo Dan!"
......
After walking for a while, a young man beside the young man was very puzzled: "Brother Guo, why do you want to destroy yourself?" ”
The young man stretched and yawned, "Why else, boring." Ha ha! ”
This person is Guo Dan.
Cao Xiaodong and Chenchen glanced at each other, and they all laughed, and the depression on their faces was swept away.
When Guo Dan laughed, his eyes glanced left and right at the two little guys, and the smile on his face was even stronger.
The reason why he just said that was to make Cao Xiaodong and Chenchen happy.
It turned out that they were traveling all the way, but they heard a lot of people criticize Guo Dan, and now Kaifeng Mansion is really full of scribes, they gather on the roadside, mountainside, and forest, and they are talking about current affairs, and some are aimed at Guo Dan.
And now they are not just attacking Yinuo Academy, but more of a life attack.
The ancients' understanding of natural disasters originated from heavenly punishment, that is, if the monarch is unkind, heaven will punish him, and if there is a demon who causes chaos, the sky will send disasters.
This made Cao Xiaodong and Chenchen very unhappy, they wanted to rush up and theorize with those literati, but they were suffering from lack of culture, where could they talk about literati.
Now seeing that Guo Dan didn't care about this, and was still having fun with it, he didn't care about it, but felt that those people were stupid, how could they be compared with Guo Dan, so he followed Guo Dan and had fun.
Aunt Xu on the side saw it in her eyes, knowing Guo Dan's purpose, and only felt that this person opened his mouth for money and closed his mouth for interests, but for the people around him, he was also meticulous.
At the same time, there was also a trace of sadness between her eyebrows.
When entering the city, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Guo Dan and Aunt Xu got into the carriage again and rode into the city.
Nowadays, the city of Kaifeng Mansion has been completely occupied by literati, which makes people feel as if they have entered a higher civilized society, where everyone is polite and courteous, and they are humble to each other, although there are many people, but they are orderly, and it is really harmonious.
Because Confucianism attaches great importance to etiquette and morality, so many literati gather here, and everyone wants to show their literati popularity as much as possible.
At the same time, the class view is also very clear, ordinary people see these literati, but they have to get aside, and they must not carry a hoe to face the literati.
This is exactly what Confucianism advocates, the order of the young and the old, the order of respect and inferiority, then it will naturally be very harmonious.
It's a pity that there is a group of guys who like to destroy harmony here today, and this harmonious atmosphere is not destined to last long.
Come to the palace!
Aunt Xu took advantage of the gap when Cao Xiaodong and Chenchen went to help arrange Guo Dan's stay, and said to Guo Dan: "Although you don't care about those remarks, but people's words are terrifying, especially the ignorance of the people at the moment, if there is a slight disobedience, this kind of remarks will definitely be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and then you want to redeem it, I am afraid it will be too late." ”
Guo Dan nodded, and suddenly asked: "The layman should have also suffered this kind of criticism, so I don't know how the layman should deal with it?" ”
Aunt Xu was stunned for a moment and said, "Why did you talk about me?" ”
Guo smiled lightly: "Learn from the experience." ”
Aunt Xu groaned slightly: "Hide." ”
"It's... I can't learn this, I have to make money. ”
Guo Dan shook his head awkwardly, suddenly looked back at Yang Feixu, and said, "Big beauty, what about you?" ”
Yang Feixu looked at Guo Dan suspiciously.
Guo Dan said: "As the only female brocade guard, haven't you been criticized?" ”
"Kill."
Yang Feixu also replied with one word.
"Alas... I can't learn it, and if I want to kill, I'll definitely be the one who was killed. Guo Dan shook his head.
Aunt Xu smiled and asked, "Then how are you, a businessman, going to deal with it?" ”
Guo said lightly: "Accept! ”
"Yes?"
Aunt Xu was stunned.
Guo Dan said: "How do you say that, what is it to insult me, rape me, whip me, insult me......!" ”
Aunt Xu said: "Do you want to say, 'How should people in the world slander me, bully me, insult me, laugh at me, despise me, despise me, hate me, and deceive me?' ’”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Guo Dan said: "My method is, what is what, alas... I don't know how much money I can use to dig Chunchun from my little uncle. ”
Aunt Xu just wanted to help him answer, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, she forcibly held back her words, and almost became Chunchun, and asked, "Then what are you doing here?" ”
Guo smiled lightly: "Let them be humiliated." ”
At this time, Cao Xiaodong walked in and said, "Brother Guo, Brother Tong and Brother Hao are here." ”
Guo Dan nodded, and said to Aunt Xu: "But that's just leisure, let's wait until I'm done with business, you guys take a rest first, and I'll go to the front yard to talk to them about something." ”
When they came to the front yard, they saw Li Tong and Chen Ping's son Chen Hao sitting inside, and when they saw Guo Dan coming in, they immediately got up and saluted.
"The proprietor."
"Brother Guo."
Guo Dan quipped to Chen Hao: "Chen Hao, you can!" Other people's colleges are built faster than my Yinuo Academy. ”
Chen Hao said with an embarrassed face: "Brother Guo, I... I don't want to, in fact, I use the most people in Yinuo Academy, but... But.... ”
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I'm just joking, you are so similar to your father, is it true that wood is lighter than bricks, I still don't understand."
Guo smiled lightly and waved his hand again: "Sit, sit." Xiaodong, you sit too. ”
Chen Hao breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart, it's good that you understand.
Su Xu's construction of their academy, although the scale is large, but it is in a simple style, even the carving is very small, the literati advocate frugality, of course, it is very fast, and Yinuo University, not only is the scale, Guo Dan also requires a lot, of course, it is relatively slow.
Guo Dan asked, "Li Tong, how is the transportation situation?" ”
Li Channel: "Please rest assured, the transportation has become more and more stable, but due to too many routes, it has not been fully rolled out for the time being." ”
As he spoke, he picked up a map from the table beside him, handed it to Guo Dan and said, "This is the transportation line that we have already launched, and it has not yet had time to be expanded, so please take a look at it." ”
Guo Dan took it, put it aside, and said: "I'll see later, I came to you today, I have another task for you, I don't know if you know, I recently have the next task, which is to help Luwangfu build Luwangfu in Weiyugang Village, Tianjin." ”
Li Tong nodded and said, "I've already heard about this." ”
Chen Hao also nodded, his eyes shining.
engaged in construction, but his Chen family was indispensable.
"It's good to know."
Guo Dan nodded and said, "There are not a few households over there, so I plan to transfer people from here to build it, and I hope the three of you will cooperate and revise a report for me." There are three issues that you need to focus on.
First, how much surplus labor will there be in the three prefectures of Kaifeng, Huaiqing, and Zhangde? In other words, how many people will face losing their livelihoods when the construction of the college is completed.
Second, how much population can be satisfied by the current grain production of these three prefectures.
Third, how much manpower is needed to build the Luwang Mansion.
On the basis of these three points, personnel were dispatched to Tianjin Wei to build the Luwang Mansion. ”
Cao Xiaodong said: "Brother Guo, we have been investigating this information, and it may not take so many people to build a Luwang Mansion." ”
Chen Hao also nodded again and again, and said: "Brother Guo, in fact, not only the construction of Nanjing schools is fast, but the construction progress of other schools is also very fast, the reason is that because there are too many people, they only want a full mouthful, as long as the supply of materials is fast, it is very fast to build." The reason why Nanjing schools are fast is because they are willing to spend money and can transport a large amount of timber from the surrounding area. To build Luwang's Mansion, there shouldn't be so many people. ”
Guo Dan smiled bitterly: "It's not just about building Luwang Mansion, but also about transporting materials and grain, there's nothing over there now, but Tianjin Wei has nothing to do with me at half, of course I still want to cheapen my own people." Of course, if it's just a big move, then I don't need to look for you.
You have to refer to these two points, how many people are more appropriate, but the focus should be on this side, it doesn't matter if there are a lot of idlers and vagrants on the side of Kaifeng Mansion, it will cause me a lot of harm. ”
Li Daodao: "Running so far to build, this is not a matter of one or two days, it may take two or three years, so what about their families?" ”
Guo Dan hesitated a little and said: "If they are willing, we will also allow them to drag their families and their families, and even help them settle down over there, and the remuneration we give them is enough to support their families." ”
Li Tong nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Guo Dan is by no means as simple as recruiting workers, he just used the excuse of building King Lu to move people over there to lay the foundation for going to sea in the future.
At the same time, it also solves the problem of excessive population pressure in these state capitals.
The population of Henan Province is already large, and they pay the most taxes, and the people of Henan are suffering.
This wind and rain can be endured, but now this day is not beautiful, and the crops are not harvested every year, so the only way is to send people overseas to find living space, this land is dead, but people can live.
You can't wait to die here.
After talking to the three of them, Guo Dan returned to the back hall.
I saw that Aunt Xu had washed up and changed into clean clothes, and her demure face was white and red, but also intellectual and elegant, but it was charming and sexy.
That Xu Mengxi's wife must also be a stunning beauty, alas... It's good to have money.
"You're done talking?"
Aunt Xu asked.
"It's just the beginning, and there's still to come!"
Guo Dan sighed, sat down, and suddenly saw Chenchen walking in with a maid carrying fruits and pastries.
"Uncle, you must be hungry after a long journey, eat first, I have already instructed someone to prepare dinner."
"I'm really hungry."
Guo smiled lightly, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Oh, this business can't be done for a while, let's get an entertainment activity to help the fun." As he spoke, he said to Aunt Xu, "I don't know if the layman is willing to draft a notice for me." ”
Aunt Xu nodded, a hint of expectation flashing in her beautiful eyes.
Chenchen immediately ordered people to prepare the four treasures of the upper room.
Guo Dan said: "Layman, I just say a general meaning, you help me polish and polish." ”
Aunt Xu nodded and said, "You say yes." ”
"But the title doesn't need to change a word."
Guo Dan said: "You just write--- destroy the demon Guo Dan." ”
