Chapter 67: Preparations are in full swing
Jiang Lian was a little blind, he felt that what Zong Xiu was going to do was strange.
"Dongjia, this is not good, what if someone from Jingzhao Mansion comes?"
He is the Lizheng of Jiangjia Village, and he knows a little bit of the law.
Zong Xiu snorted: "Don't worry, no one is allowed to come in for the first ten days and a half." ”
"Hoo ......"
Jiang Lian took a deep breath.
Fortunately, the surrounding farmers are busy irrigating in this season, and no one will come to hang out, just take precautions for ten days and a half, and there is no need to worry about alarming the people of the government.
Zong Xiu wanted to come to pen and ink again, and drew a few sketches casually and handed them to Jiang Lian.
"Jiang Lizheng, how long will it take for this thing to be done?"
Jiang Jian took a look and found that the picture was a table, but it was much larger than the ordinary table.
The villagers in this year are versatile, basic carpentry, masonry can play, generally lack a bed at home, table or something, are their own hands, it is not difficult.
"Is the owner in a hurry? If I'm in a hurry, I'll let the people in the village rush to work together, and I can get it done before dark. ”
"Okay, you look at it, I'll come back tomorrow."
Zong Xiu explained a few more words, and hurriedly walked upstream along the riverside.
He wanted to go back to see if the six thousand taels of gold promised by Yan Chengcheng had arrived.
Now that you have decided to do business, you can't afford to have a gap in funds.
When Zong Xiu trotted all the way home, he saw two carriages parked at the door, and a few men in strong suits with swords on duty.
"Haha, Yan, everyone, I finally looked forward to you."
Zong Xiu laughed and entered the door.
Yan Chengcheng was having a family affair with Yi Dumping, and when he saw Zong Xiu coming back, he covered his mouth and smiled: "Zong Gongzi, you can let the slave family wait." ”
"Hehe, isn't this going to Jiangjia Village to prepare?"
Zong Xiu looked left and right, looking for gold.
Yi Chengqing hurriedly walked over and said in a low voice: "Childe, there is too much gold, I let it be put in the cellar." ”
"We still have a cellar?"
Zong Xiuleng said.
Yan Qingcheng chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Gongzi Zong, gold is indispensable for you." I heard my daughter say that you have already bought Jiangjia Village? ”
"Well, I'm going to build a workshop in Jiangjia Village."
Yan Chengcheng is his capital injector, and Zong Xiu does not hide it.
"Yan, I still need you to use your connections to help me find some skilled craftsmen, carpenters, potters or something. Also, I need a batch of pig iron ore, not too much, just a few thousand catties. ”
Zong Xiu finished saying his request in one breath, but Yan Chengcheng was puzzled.
"Carpenters and potters are easy to find, but pig iron is not! You want too much, this place is close to Chang'an City, I'm afraid it's not easy to get. ”
In the era of cold weapons, iron ore was a controlled item, after all, this thing could make swords. In order to prevent civil rebellion, the emperors controlled iron very strictly.
Zong Xiu asked for thousands of catties of iron ore in one breath, and Yan Chengcheng naturally had some scruples.
Zong Xiu sighed: "Since that's the case, then the pig iron ore is not needed." ”
"Huh?"
Yan Tingcheng was stunned, what kind of medicine is being sold in this show's gourd? Didn't you just say that you need iron ore, why don't you want it as soon as you change your mouth?
Although Yan Tingcheng didn't understand what Zong Xiu wanted to do, he didn't ask, and said, "Zong Gongzi, I don't know how many craftsmen you need?" ”
"A carpenter with good craftsmanship will come in a hundred and ten, and a potter will come in a hundred and ten."
"Well, this is easy to do, the slave family will help you find it when you go back, and it is estimated that it will be delivered tomorrow." After Yan Chengcheng finished speaking, he asked, "Do you want them to report to Jiangjia Village?" ”
"Yes. Tell them that it is estimated that they will live in Jiangjia Village for ten days and a half months, and they will not be able to leave during this period. ”
"Can't leave? In this way, Zong Gongzi is afraid of leaking secrets, but what can he do in ten days and a half months? ”
A cold light flashed in Yan Chengcheng's eyes: "Why don't you wait for them to make what you want, how about the slave family help you kill it?" ”
"Shhh...... You are crazy! ”
Zong Xiu gasped.
Be obedient, you will kill your mouth at every turn, were the ancients so crazy?
Yan Qingcheng chuckled: "If that thing can bring ten times a hundred times the profit, what's the problem with killing a hundred and ten people?" ”
Zong Xiu could feel that although Yan Chengcheng was laughing, the killing intent in his words was already born. At the moment, he said coldly: "Then Yan, do you want to wait for things to be made, and even kill me together?" ”
In a word, the atmosphere turned cold, and Yi was even more anxious and in a dilemma.
"Well, that's a good idea." Yan Chengcheng really pretended to be thinking: "If Gongzi Zong doesn't want to live anymore, the slave family can help you." ”
Zong Xiu said twice: "You don't want to live anymore." Meow, a woman don't fight and kill at every turn, what I want to do is something that benefits all the people, and when that thing comes out, in addition to making money, I also have to sacrifice to His Majesty, so as to promote the world. Yan, everyone, we don't threaten the craftsman. ”
"Giggles, since Zong Gongzi said so, the slave family will naturally not touch them." Yan Qingcheng laughed twice, and looked at Zong Xiu's eyes with appreciation: "So the slave family is waiting for the good news of Zong Gongzi." If you need help in the future, just ask. ”
With that, Yan Chengcheng slowly got up and walked out.
didn't take two steps, Fu stopped again, turned around and said, "I heard my daughter say that you still owe the martial family more than 7,000 taels of silver in order to buy the land in Jiangjia Village." ”
Zong Xiu sneered and said, "Doesn't this mean that if you give it to someone today, you will just wait for your gold to be delivered." ”
"You don't need to send it over, I'll say hello to the martial arts family when I go back, and the silver will be deducted from their account in Yifeng Pavilion."
"That's a good feeling, and you're all good."
Zong Xiu likes things that don't cost money, and he is not polite, and he bows his hand to Yan Qingcheng.
"Cut, death, it's just a little vulgar, you can be kind to my good daughter in the future."
Yan Chengcheng rolled his eyes, hummed and walked out of the courtyard gate, and under the eyes of Zong Xiu and Yi Tingqing, he got into the carriage and left.
In the next eight or nine days, Zong Xiu felt that his life was extremely fulfilling, and every day he ran at home and Jiangjia Village, and he directly asked someone to send a letter to him, saying that he was unwell and could not go to class for the time being.
When Yi Chengqing first started, he still felt that 'business' was a cheap business, and Zong Xiu was the master of the country, so he shouldn't show up and mess with those villagers.
But as the carpenters and potters made things, and Zong Xiu personally demonstrated and taught the villagers of Jiangjia Village how to operate, the concept of easy love completely changed.
She could feel that Zong Xiu was doing something earth-shattering, and in order to prevent the leakage of secrets, she took the initiative to ask Ying to patrol every morning and evening.
On this morning, Zong Xiu led Yi to Jiangjia Village to eat.
As soon as I walked into the door of the workshop, I was greeted by sharp-eyed people and greeted warmly. Jiang Jian ran over even more excitedly, and shouted loudly: "Owner, good news, good news, the first batch of goods has been rushed out." ”
"Really?" Zong Xiu was so happy that he forgot that he was hungry: "Quick, take me to see." ”
