"The lands are ownerless?" Gongsun Jian asked.

"Those are all uncultivable land, some of which have been built into simple houses by those who have fled the famine and those who have lost their land, some of which belong to the county government, and some of which originally belonged to those families. The subordinates thought that we could resettle those displaced people, or even hire them, after all, it also needed manpower to build the warehouse itself, and after it was built, it also needed to hire people to manage and maintain it. ”

"Hmm. OK. How much will it cost, together with the resettlement of the displaced people and the construction of the warehouse? ”

"The subordinates roughly calculated, and estimated that there were seven thousand taels of silver, which was about the same. The main thing is some material money. ”

"That's enough?" Gongsun Jian looked at Feng Huaidao suspiciously, and asked, "If that's the case, those ones haven't been built long ago." ”

"Your Excellency, you don't understand the reasoning behind this." Feng Huaidao smiled, then stroked his beard, and the old god replied: "Although those few were originally also engaged in trade, they were for private cover, and they didn't need so many warehouses at all. Besides, the main reason why my subordinates only need this money is that I can rent out the warehouses to be built in advance. In this way, part of the construction funds can be withdrawn in advance. In addition, don't we have some fields confiscated from those families, and using the fields to settle those displaced people can be regarded as free labor and give them a life industry, and second, we can also make those fields not wasted, so that we can directly have a source of food in our hands in the future. ”

Gongsun Jian nodded with satisfaction after listening, this Feng Huaidao is really a talent, not only thought of the trick of pre-selling houses in his previous life, but also laid out logistics support problems in advance for the future. The army had no money or food in their hands, and what to use to fight. It seems that I am really lucky to get such a talent unexpectedly.

agreed to Feng Huaidao's plan, and told the other party that the money could be directly asked for by Gong Yuwu, and he would write a special note when he returned. Feng Huaidao was stunned when he heard this. looked at Gongsun Jian with an indifferent face, and said in his heart that my master is really big-hearted, and hundreds of thousands of taels of silver dare to be handed over to a six-year-old female doll to manage like this. If this is gone, who will cry?

Perhaps seeing Feng Huaidao's doubts, Gongsun Jian laughed happily a few times, and then said a little proudly: "Old Feng, don't underestimate that girl." It is estimated that in terms of the ability to settle accounts, ten of you may not be her opponent. It's hard to cheat money out of her. I, as a father, may not be able to do it. Hahaha......"

"But my lord, my son-in-law, she is still a child after all." Feng Huaidao cautiously reminded.

"Well, I know. In fact, I was just deliberately cultivating her. That girl has a natural sensitivity and understanding of numbers. However, she is only responsible for reconciling the accounts and managing the incoming and outgoing accounts. Lao Qi and Liu Dayuan are in charge of the warehouse, so you can rest assured. ”

"Oh, that's good." Feng Huaidao nodded reassuringly.

"That's right, Old Feng. Since we are going to expand the warehouse, let's build a few more docks by the way. It saves a lot of trade in the future, and the wharf is not enough. I asked, our Fenshui can carry a maximum of 1,500 materials, and the most commonly used ones are only 2 or 300 materials, and the larger ones are only 5 or 600 materials. To do construction planning, we must look at the long-term, there is no big ship now, it may not be in the future, but if people come and there is nowhere to dock, how can it be done. According to my idea, two large wharves should be built, both of which can dock 1,500 large ships. Six more medium-sized ship wharves of 500 to 800 were built. You go back and find someone to figure out how much money it will cost. ”

"My lord, this ......" Feng Huaidao was shocked by Gongsun Jian again, are you so sure that there will be so many ships passing through Linshui County in the future? And there will be a big ship of fifteen hundred materials. But since Gongsun Jian said it, he can't object. It's worth nodding and taking it for now.

"Also, when building a warehouse, leave a vacant lot in the best position near the dock and build a three-story building. The first floor hall should be able to accommodate at least 500 people at the same time, and the second floor can be slightly smaller, all divided into private rooms, but the privacy and sound insulation effect should be better. The third floor, I haven't thought about how to arrange it, but the area is as big as the second floor. These are all right? ”

"This ...... If that's the case, I'm afraid 7,000 taels is not enough, just the three-story building you said just now is estimated to cost more than 10,000 taels, and it doesn't include the decoration costs inside. Feng Huaidao frowned and asked, "My lord, do you want to open a restaurant there?" ”

"It's not a restaurant, it's an exchange. It is convenient for merchants to exchange information, and it can also facilitate their trading with each other. In the future, it will become the most prosperous and important place in the entire Linshui County. Gongsun Jian replied with a smile. And Feng Huaidao thought about it, and suddenly seemed to understand something, and bowed down to Gongsun Jian and said, "Your Excellency's whimsical ideas have benefited his subordinates a lot. ”

In fact, Gongsun Jian's idea is to build this place into a commodity exchange or free trade zone similar to the previous life. So that goods from the south to the north can be distributed here, and the purpose of opening this exchange is naturally to attract people. Once the scale is formed, Linshui County will become the most important market and trade transit place in the Fenshui coastal basin. In this way, he can bring all the supplies he needs, as well as taxes and warehouse rentals.

After discussing with Feng Huaidao for a while, it was not early. The two of them simply walked back to the courtyard where they lived. When he arrived at Shiao Lane, Gongsun Jian unexpectedly saw that several armed civilians had been arranged to guard and patrol around his small courtyard. I didn't expect this Wei fool to be quite neat, and what he ordered in the afternoon was initially implemented in the evening.

Seeing Zhao Sihai coming back from afar, Lao Yuan hurriedly greeted him. After greeting Gongsun Jian, he said hello to Feng Huaidao, and then reported: "My lord, it was Lord Wei who arranged for me to transfer people from the militia group to protect the safety of the mansion and the young lady. ”

Gongsun Jian laughed secretly after hearing this, a big fool of Wei, just took office and asked you to set up dozens of personal guards, you actually made yourself an adult, I don't know that you are an adult. Fortunately, Gongsun Jian did not expose it, and asked Zhao Sihai with a smile: "What about Wei Meng and others?" ”

"Lord Wei and I have selected thirty brothers to come out, and let me bring ten brothers to guard here first, while he takes the other brothers to buy the guys and clean up the barracks."

"Tidy up the barracks?" Gongsun Jian looked at Zhao Sihai with some doubts.

"Yes. Lord Wei said that the task of our brothers in the future is to follow and protect the safety of you and your young lady's family, so it is inconvenient to live in the regimental camp outside the city, so we should arrange a place to be stationed nearby. In this way, if you need to summon us, you can be on call. ”

Gongsun Jian looked around, frowned slightly and asked, "But there are no vacant rooms around here?" ”

Zhao Sihai smiled innocently and replied: "Lord Wei asked Miss for a handwritten message, and then went to the county government to find the county magistrate, and asked for a separate courtyard that had been raided by the Chen family before, and then exchanged it with several nearby families. ”

"Are the people in the neighborhood willing to change?" Gongsun Jian's face was a little not good-looking, obviously Wei Meng was holding chicken feathers as an arrow. If he forces the residents of the neighborhood to change houses, his reputation will not be good in the future.

But Zhao Sihai smiled and said, "Then how can you not want to." I'm not near home, otherwise I'm willing to replace. My lord, you think, who would be stupid and unhappy to move from this dilapidated house to the garden-like courtyard built by the Chen family all of a sudden. The family is so happy that they can't keep their mouths shut. Moreover, Lord Wei also took his brothers to help them move, and I heard that the young lady also gave each family two taels of silver in compensation. If I want to say that if I don't let them compensate, it would be good, but we actually got a good house and still have money to get. ”

After listening to Zhao Sihai's explanation, Gongsun Jian's face soothed a little and nodded slightly. And Feng Huaidao, who had been listening to the conversation between the two at the moment, said in a low voice: "My lord, Brother Wei Meng, don't look at people who are honest, but they are not brainless people. And it's good-hearted, otherwise the old man and the little girl wouldn't have been saved in the first place. Therefore, he still has a sense of proportion in dealing with the poor. I think today's thing is not only done well by Brother Wei, but also by the daughter-in-law of the adult family. ”

Seeing Feng Huaidao praising Wei Meng and Gongyu Wu beside him, Gongsun Jian couldn't help but show a smile. Think about it, this big and small are indeed like this, they are very kind and warm-hearted. It's just what kind of stuff are you doing? Lao Tzu has not raised the flag here to rebel and raise troops to claim the emperor, and his daughter can actually write something nonsense to assign the county order, and she also calls herself a handful. It's just nonsense. And Liu Dayuan's guy actually obeyed his orders, and he was too bastard. When I look for an opportunity, I still have to talk about a few people, Gong Yuwu is not sensible and just messes around, don't you Liu Dayuan understand? He wrote something to you as a child, and you dared to let go of the raided house, and if she asked you to get out of the county ordinance, wouldn't you listen to it?

Thinking of this, Gongsun Jian was still a little unhappy, looked at Zhao Sihai and asked, "How many families have been relocated?" ”

"Returning to the adult's words, a total of 12 rooms in five families were changed. Lord Wei said that six of them were used as barracks for the brothers, and the other two were used as warehouses to store supplies, weapons and armor. There is also one room for duty, one for office use, and the remaining two rooms are reserved for future expansion of the number of people, which can be used as barracks. Zhao Sihai replied honestly.

Gongsun Jian couldn't help laughing, this Wei Meng was still very thoughtful, and he even thought about the future development. It's a pity that the vision is still limited, is it enough to have dozens of guards around me in the future? But for now, that's it.

After learning about these circumstances, Gongsun Jian did not embarrass Zhao Sihai, but directly appointed Zhao Sihai to be Wei Meng's deputy in the future to assist Wei Meng in managing this current thirty-member personal guard. lest Wei Meng be alone and do everything.

sent Zhao Sihai away to continue on duty, and Gongsun Jian entered the small courtyard with Feng Huaidao. And Feng Wan'er, who stayed at home and was responsible for taking care of Gong Yu Wu, had already prepared the meal.

Through these days of contact, Feng Wan'er is not only handsome and pleasant, but also good at handling all kinds of housework, cooking and female celebrities are also quite good, especially in terms of knowledge. It seems that Feng Huaidao is also very good at cultivating and educating his children. So these days, Gongsun Jian consciously asked Feng Wan'er to help him teach Gongyu Dance. I hope that the little girl will be a lady and a good wife and mother when she grows up.

After dinner, Qi Shi and Ma Teng both came to find Gongsun Jian. So Gongsun Jian led the two of them and Feng Huaidao into the small study in the backyard. Although Gongsun Jian does not live in the backyard now, this small study has been kept as a special place to discuss secret matters.

Qi Shi and Ma Teng naturally knew that Feng Huaidao was now following Gongsun Jian like himself, and he was a person who had the ability to read, so they were very respectful and polite to Feng Huaidao. However, Feng Huaidao knew that these two were the first hardcore henchmen to follow Gongsun Jian, so he didn't take it big, and his attitude towards the two was also very friendly.
