Under the old chun tree in Xiahetun, more and more villagers gathered over, and they were also talking to each other, I don't know what happened when Liu Jin summoned everyone over.

"Brother Jin, everyone is almost here, is there anything you can tell the big guy?"

The village chief, Uncle Zhou, saw that the people were almost there, and he also said to Liu Jin.

This Xiahetun is not big, and it doesn't take a few minutes to find someone to pass the word.

"Wait a minute, the two tigers haven't come yet."

Liu Jin looked at the direction of his new home, Zhao Erhu hadn't come here yet, so he was also ready to wait.

Everyone didn't wait too long, Zhao Erhu and Zhang Hu drove a few carriages full of things, and the carriages came to the middle of the village, Zhao Erhu and Zhang Hu also began to move things, only to see that from the top of the carriages, bags of flour and rice were also constantly moving down, and soon they were piled up.

"Is this flour?"

"You can't go wrong with good white flour."

When everyone looked at it, they all suddenly showed joy, and it seemed that Liu Jin was going to give everyone benefits.

"Grandparents, uncles and uncles, thank you very much for taking care of my mother and son all the time, and thank you very much for helping my family build a house."

"Without everyone's help, our family may not be able to survive until now, and now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, I have also prepared some flour and rice to express my gratitude, thank you for your continued care for our orphans and widows."

Liu Jin saw that the flour and rice were all moved over, and he also stood up and said loudly: "There are not many flour and rice, every household has a bag of flour and a bag of rice, I hope everyone likes it." ”

Liu Jin said very bluntly, for these Xiahetun villagers who live at the bottom, Wen Xuan's words will only produce isolation, and if he says it bluntly, everyone can understand and feel more cordial.

"Thank you, Brother Jin~"

"It's better to be Brother Jin~"

"A bag of white flour, a bag of rice~"

As soon as everyone heard Liu Jin's words, they couldn't help but express their gratitude happily, everyone's eyes were very sharp, this bag is not small, a bag is at least twenty catties, this bag of flour plus a bag of rice, this is enough to eat for a long time.

With these two bags of grain, there is no need to worry at all this winter, and tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner can also be eaten openly, and maybe tomorrow you can go to the town to cut some meat and taste the meat.

"Let's bring back the noodles and rice first, and then come back, I still have something to say to you."

Liu Jin smiled and nodded, and then motioned to Zhao Erhu to start making noodles and rice.

The villagers of Xiahetun often sold salt, so it was natural that they lined up, and soon they each happily led the flour and rice home, and then came to the old Chunshu again, wanting to see what Liu Jin had to say.

"The big guy must also know that I have partnered with someone here to start Xishan Coal Industry."

Seeing that everyone was coming back again, Liu Jin thought about it and said slowly.

"Isn't it, I heard that Brother Jin, you have made a lot of money~"

"The people who work in Xishan Coal Industry have three meals a day and are open, and there are more than ten or twenty yuan in wages~"

"Brother Jin, you must be going to make everyone rich."

When everyone heard this, they immediately replied with a smile.

Liu Jin also smiled when he heard this, and then raised his hand to signal, and everyone quickly quieted down.

"I really need some manpower here in Xishan, and outsiders can't trust it after all, so I'm also going to select some people from the village to bring them over, although everyone can rest assured in terms of treatment, I won't treat my own people badly."

"Follow me to do things, including food and housing, and I will pay 1 tael of silver a month."

Liu Jin actually wanted to take some people out from his village very early, and the people in his village were more or less trustworthy, of course, more importantly, Xiahetun was too poor, and taking some people out would also allow more people to see the world, and they could learn something from themselves, and slowly change Xiahetun.

"Eat and live, and 1 tael of silver a month~"

"Brother Jin, do you think I'll do it?"

"Choose me, choose me~"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but shout, this treatment is really tempting, not to mention that they can go to the capital to see the world, and almost everyone in the village is moved.

"Don't worry, I also have requirements, each family is limited to 1 person, the age is best between fourteen and twenty years old, I don't want the small, and the older ones can't, everyone will discuss each other after they go back."

"It's not an easy thing to follow me, I have a lot of requirements, not to mention anything else, there are a lot of things I have to learn, if I don't want to learn or I don't learn well, my side will also drive people away, I'll say ugly things first."

Liu Jin looked at the appearance of everyone, and also said his request.

The reason why there is such a requirement, Liu Jin also has his own plans, older people are old fritters, and they are very good, but they can't do things and study, young people are like blank paper, which is easier to shape, and it is faster to learn knowledge and skills.

Recruit a group of people in your own village, first put Xishan here to do work, train, take night classes, learn basic knowledge, and then you can slowly reuse it according to the situation in the future.

Hearing Liu Jin's words, the family members present also smiled one by one, as before, every family has a share, no one should fight, don't rob, now what needs to be worried is that it is time to let the elders of the family follow Liu Jin.

"Brother Jin, although we are poor in Xiahetun, we are down-to-earth in doing things, if this person follows you and doesn't study well, don't do things well, turn around and tell me, I promise not to kill him~"

When Grandpa Zhou heard Liu Jin's words, he also expressed his attitude on behalf of the people in the village.

"Yes, yes, being able to follow Brother Jin, that's creation, if you don't cherish it, don't go back to the village, otherwise you will definitely break his leg."

When the others heard this, they also hurriedly shouted one by one, and some of the young people who came to join in the fun couldn't help but touch their legs, and suddenly felt a chill rising up.

"In addition to recruiting some people to work with me, I am also going to do some profitable business here in our village."

Liu Jin nodded, and then said slowly: "When the big guy helped me build a house, I should have seen that strange pool-like thing." ”

"I also told the big guy the truth, this is also a profitable business I am preparing for, and I will inevitably ask everyone to help when the time comes."

"The rules are the same, each family has a laborer first, and I will be given a lunch for work, which is also 1 tael of silver every month."

Xueyan's business is definitely going to expand, but this secret is still to be kept secret, which is why Liu Jin designed a complex assembly line workshop.

At that time, the unimportant and non-critical steps will be done by the villagers, and the core and important steps will be taken by Zhao Heishan's family and kept them as confidential as possible.

However, Liu Jin also knows that this secret cannot be kept secret for too long, and the people in the village can naturally guess that this business must be related to salt if they do it for a long time.

But as long as this core secret and method are in the hands of his own people, Liu Jin is not afraid that everyone will know about this snow salt, and as long as Liu Jin is given some time, he will follow Emperor Hongzhi in the capital to mix up an official and a half-position or something.

Even if everyone knows that the snow salt was made by Liu Jin, those red-eyed people, such as Tang Laohu and the like, need to weigh and weigh how many catties and taels they have if they want to start a snow salt business.

If he hadn't gone to the capital to meet Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jin really wouldn't have dared to recruit people on such a large scale, so he could only secretly recruit some trustworthy people first, and slowly expand the scale, and he was also afraid that Tang Laohu would come to find trouble for him, and he was worried that this matter of snow salt would be known by others.
