Chapter 255: Five Thousand Gangs (Third Shift)
On the thirteenth day of the first month, the wind was light in the morning, and there was no morning glow. A few clouds drifted slowly in the blue sky.
"Proprietor Li, I'll take my leave." Yu Huaide took a group of people and cars to say goodbye to Li Yi by Zhuangzi.
Before the Chinese New Year, Yu Huaide's smuggler alliance was raising supplies.
After the New Year, before the fifteenth day of the first month, the team was ready to set off, and the last batch of goods was picked up from Li Yi Zhuangzi.
Inside there is soap, soap, glycerin, toilet water, skin balm, and ten small mirrors.
Yu Huaide and the others knew that all the other goods added up were not as good as the three carts that came out of Zhuangzi.
Three hundred Lin Fei rode on the side and waited, still riding three people and three people.
"Have a safe journey!" Li Yi clenched his fists.
"Let's go, go around the city, go around the city." Yu Huaide shouted, and the team went around from the south of Chang'an City to the north of the city.
At the same time, two carriages came out of the south and west gates, and joined together on the west side of the city.
Dozens of miles to the west, there are already teams waiting in the villages.
More than 1,000 wagons were dispatched, followed by craftsmen, loaded with goods and forage.
Private guards and hired guards are accompanied by Feather Forest Flyers.
The procession marched all the way to the west.
The official documents of the merchants under the imperial court were not allowed to be extorted and detained along the way, and they were sent to the official offices along the way one step earlier.
In the imperial city, on the lookout tower, Li Longji took a telescope to look at the team in the west of the city.
"I don't know how much money I can get back for this time? I don't know how many local officials can be called to fall into the handle. ”
Li Longji has never forgotten Li Yi's idea of pitting people.
The following ordered the officials along the way to stop, and the caravan still bribed to open the way.
After that, there is a reason to want to clean up whom, and it is very sufficient.
Gao Lishi stood aside, silent, but in his heart he was three points wary of the sunny young proprietor.
The boy is bad, with sores on the top of his head and pus on the soles of his feet.
Li Yi, who was slandered by Gao Lishi, shuddered and looked up at the sky.
"Oh, it's still the sky blue of our Datang, and the smell of soot is exceptionally fresh."
Li Yi boasted of glancing at the direction of the kiln, where it was burning, and the kiln with coke had no smoke, and the kiln with coke was smoky.
He shook his head: "I can't prevent pollution, so let's make do with it first, and when I come back from this year, I will find a sparsely populated place to build a separate coke oven." ”
'Jingle bells' accompanied by the sound of bells, and a four-wheeled pony carriage crossed the bridge.
Li Yi, who was about to go back, stopped, waited for the car to get closer, and asked with a smile: "Brother Pei's house is not busy?" ”
"The lantern festival on the night of the Shangyuan Festival has been arranged the day after tomorrow, thank you for my brother's coming, and the people of Chang'an can save a little money."
Pei Yaoqing jumped out of the car, and the whole person looked in good condition.
He is talking about joint defense, and there must be no children lost this year, and there must be no stampede.
Then he said what he said: "On Suzaku Street, you have reserved a place for Brother Yi for your brother, but what is Zhuangzi going to sell?" ”
Li Yi thought for a while and asked, "Can you rent it out?" Collect a lot of money in one night. ”
Pei Yaoqing: "......"
"Brother Yi, don't be joking, if there is really nothing to sell, it will be used for other purposes by my brother." Pei Yaoqing took it seriously.
"There's a little thing that you can take out and play with the kids, oh, adults can play with it too." Li Yi thought about it and decided to take a small toy.
The children are idle, and they will run around if they don't help with the work.
Now that the river is civilized, if you accidentally fall into it, it is useless to do any cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
"What?" Pei Yaoqing was always curious about the things on Li Yi Zhuangzi: "But it's a new tool for benefiting the people?" ”
"How can there be so many tools for benefiting the people, Brother Pei will tell me the place, and something will be sent the day after tomorrow." Li Yi shook his head and invited Pei Yaoqing in.
Li Yi made tea, and the two sat opposite each other.
Pei Yaoqing couldn't wait to take a sip of tea first, grabbed the dim sum on the small table and stuffed it into his mouth.
"I woke up in a hurry in the morning, I didn't drink a mouthful of porridge, and my stomach hurt." Pei Yaoqing felt much more comfortable.
"Since you have an empty stomach, it's better not to drink tea." Li Yiquan.
"If you eat, you won't be empty, eat two pieces less, and eat at noon on your village."
Pei Yaoqing was not polite at all, pinched another piece of dim sum and stuffed it in, then choked, and took the tea and sent it down.
After eating three small pieces of dim sum, Pei Yaoqing picked up the raw edge paper and wiped his hands.
"Brother Yi, what work do you say you have before the winter wheat harvest this year? You can't keep kneading mud, can you? ”
Pei Yaoqing began to plan for the long term.
Li Yi drank tea and didn't squeak, it was too embarrassing.
If I come up with one, do you ask what kind of work you do before the autumn grain harvest?
Hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an need to find a job, this time they still joined forces with other kilns to operate together, so as to solve the problem of pottery.
After that, a large amount of pottery was sent away and sold outside, impacting the pottery industry in other places.
"Brother Pei." After waiting for more than a dozen breaths, Li Yi spoke up.
"The green and yellow are not harvested, the cultivators are not idle, the work in the field still has to be done, and the people who grow mulberry and silkworms are just as busy."
Li Yi remembered a key thing, the food did not come down, it did not mean that there was no need to serve.
"I know for my brother, but there are still some people who don't work much, those who do odd jobs. Usual...... Let's just say last year.
Last year, when the green and yellow were not accepted, everyone had little money in their hands and did not dare to spend it, and some were digging wild vegetables.
Those who have no land to plant and no shops have no other way to live than to help others.
I don't want more, even if you solve 10,000 people for me, no, 5,000. ”
Pei Yaoqing said with a bitter face.
Li Yi wanted to spray his face with tea to make the other party sober up.
Open your mouth to 10,000 or 5,000 jobs, although it is temporary, but you are embarrassed to say it?
Pei Yaoqing's heart was weak, and he looked down at the little tea left in the tea bowl, as if he wanted to wait for being judged.
Li Yi took a small sip of the tea bowl, pondering while drinking.
"It's really not good, go and ask the Ministry of Industry for my brother to see if he can repair the embankment, pave the road, and build a bridge." Pei Yaoqing said a solution by himself.
"People who do odd jobs in Chang'an go to repair bridges and roads? It's not professional, it's a waste of money, it's better to find my eldest brother, at least there are many craftsmen. ”
Li Yi vetoed, each type of work is different.
Let the person in charge of food delivery in heaven and earth go to repair the river embankment, a food delivery ...... The delivery is very good.
Li Yi hurriedly erased the idea that the delivery people can't do it, the delivery riders, all kinds of talents.
"What if they are told to cooperate with the craftsmen?" Pei Yaoqing didn't know what Li Yi was thinking, he figured out a way.
"Repair for a few months, they've been on the construction site?" Li Yi still vetoed it, and when it was repaired, the position of his previous job was robbed after he came back.
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work......" Pei Yaoqing muttered like a child who wants to eat candy and doesn't buy it.
"Brother Pei drinks tea, thinks slowly, and is not in a hurry." Li Yi comforted.
"Well, speaking of tea, Brother Yi, your method of making tea is easy to use, I'm used to drinking those teas, drink your refreshing."
Pei Yaoqing changed the topic and began to talk about tea.
"Yes, this tea...... What month is the green and yellow? Brother Pei, there is a way, 5,000 people, temporarily looking for work. ”
Li Yi thought of it, it's easy to do.
