Chapter 104: There are subordinates
Zhao Yuan and Qian Hu moved all the lime from the carriage, and then chatted by the fish pond, and after a while, Tao Pu and others also returned.
Everyone unloaded all the lime from the car, and Tao Pu settled the car money for the hired cars and asked the cars to go back.
"The master still works himself, how do I think he is completely different from the rich and noble families we met before." Guo Du whispered to a few senior brothers.
"That means our lord doesn't have a fight." Xu Xiang said.
"We have signed a deed of sale, we can't slack off because the master has no shelf, Senior Brother Qian respects the master very much, which shows that our master is not simple." Shao Meng said softly.
"Boss, is this lime enough?" Patting the ash on his hands, Tao Pu asked.
"It should be enough." Zhao Yuan estimated, nodded and said.
"Brother Shao Meng, there are four more, I arranged a few of them like this, Brother Shao Meng and Brother Guo Du stayed at home to help, Zhu Mian, Zan Zhao, and Xu Xiang went to the shop in the market to help, but it will take a while for the shop in the market to open, and they will stay at home during this time to familiarize themselves with the situation here." Zhao Yuan walked in front of Shao Meng and the five people and said.
"Okay, we'll listen to your arrangement, sir." Shao Meng and the five of them bowed and said.
"The monthly money of the five is first distributed according to the consistent copper money every month, including food and accommodation, and then the monthly money will be increased according to the situation, do you have any opinions?" Zhao Yuan asked.
"We have no opinion." Shao Meng and the five looked at Qian Hu and saw that he nodded slightly to himself.
"Well, we're fairly stable here, and you won't have a lot of things to do, just practice and help us do some work." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"Yes, sir." Shao Meng and the five of them bowed.
"Uncle Tao, you can help write five contracts in a while, just refer to the contract for recruiting clerks in the store in the bazaar."
"Okay, host." Tao Pu said.
"Do you still have to sign a contract?" Guo Du asked.
"Yes, anyone who comes to my house to help for a long time has to sign a contract, rest assured, it is not a deed of sale." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"Yes, five little brothers, I also signed such a contract with the owner." Tao Pu said on the side.
"But ......"
"No problem, let's sign it." Guo Du just wanted to say that he had already signed a deed of sale with Young Master Wan Er in the county seat, but Shao Meng interrupted him and said, Young Master Wan Er had explained that he couldn't tell Zhao Yuan about the deed of sale.
"Okay, that's it." Zhao Yuan nodded and said.
"Boss Zhao, my second young master asked me to ask you, when will the goods you need be delivered?" Seeing that Zhao Yuan had arranged the affairs of the five junior disciples, Qian Hu stepped forward and said.
"I didn't know that you came today, just now in Funing Building, let the shopkeeper Fu send someone to inform the second brother." Zhao Yuan patted his forehead and said.
"That's okay, the second young master also explained, it won't be long before Boss Zhao needs you to go to Danling County, and the matter of the soap business should be contacted soon." Originally, we were going to come yesterday, but the people of the Zhang family of the Shu rich family came to talk to the second young master about the soap business yesterday. Qian Hu said.
"Is the Zhang family in Shudi the Zhang family the most powerful Zhang Wang family in the dynasty?" Zhao Yuan asked.
"Yes, the second young master said that the person who came to Danling should be a concubine of the Zhang family, but he is very talented in business, and in the business affairs of the Zhang family, this young master of the Zhang family has great authority." Qian Hu said.
"How did the second brother talk to him?" Zhao Yuan asked.
"I don't know the specifics, but I see that the second young master has a pleasant conversation with the second young master of the Zhang family." Qian Hu said.
"It looks like the soap business is about to take place." Zhao Yuan said softly.
"Brother Qian will stay for two more days when he comes, just to give me more instructions on the monkey boxing I practice." No longer thinking about the soap business, Zhao Yuan said loudly.
"My five junior brothers have been practicing boxing since they were children, Boss Zhao can practice with them in the future, and the second young master told me to rush back as soon as possible." Qian Hu shook his head and said.
"Master, I'm most familiar with monkey boxing, I'll teach you to practice it in the future." Guo Du interjected.
"Okay, hahaha, I don't know if I'm practicing correctly, so you can help me take a look." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"Brother Qian is leaving today, and I won't keep you much, but I'll eat lunch before leaving."
"Okay." Qian Hu nodded and said.
"Owner, the lime has been pulled, what to do with this fish pond?" Tao Pu saw that Zhao Yuan had finished talking to Qian Hu, and stepped forward to ask.
"I'm going to do this...... Zhao Yuan said the method he came up with to prevent leakage in the fish pond, which is actually very simple, that is, to drive a circle of wooden stakes along the perimeter of the fish pond, then weave it with bamboo, fill the underwater part with stones, and then build a mortar mixed with yellow mud and lime in it. In this way, the upper part of the fish pond can be leak-proofed.
"Then let's get the stakes and bamboo ready." Tao Pu listened to Zhao Yuan's explanation and said.
"I'll see that I'll ask a few more villagers from the two villages who are helping to plough the ground to help, and it will be quicker to do so." Zhao Yuan said.
The most of the stones here are in the lower river dam, but the yellow mud needs to be dug at the foot of the mountain, and now there are enough people, so it shouldn't take much time to do it.
"Brother Qian, since you are still busy rushing back to the county seat, I will ask Xiaoying and them to make you something to eat first." Seeing that Qian Hu was going to help with the work, Zhao Yuan thought about it and said.
"It's okay, the second young master in the county is short of manpower now, and I can help if I go back early." Qian Hu nodded and said.
"That's it, Uncle Tao, let's stop working now, and we'll do it after lunch."
"Okay, host."
"Let's go, let's go back to the house first." Zhao Yuan beckoned everyone back to the house.
"Shao Meng, how old are the five of you, and where are you from?" Back in the house, Zhao Yuan explained to Meng Ying and asked them to make something to eat for Qian Hu first, and then everyone came to the hall, Zhao Yuan asked Shao Meng and the others.
"Master, we are both from Pengzhou, and we have been sent to the martial arts hall to practice martial arts since we were children. I'm the oldest of the five, and I'm twenty years old. Shao Meng said.
"Then you are a little older than me, Pengzhou, it's not far from CD Mansion City, it's a little north of CD Mansion City." Zhao Yuan asked.
"yes, not far." Shao Meng nodded and said.
Zhao Yuan chatted with Qian Hu and Shao Meng, and learned about the situation of Shao Meng's five people, among the five, Shao Meng is the oldest and the most stable, Guo Du is the youngest and has the most lively personality, and the other three are relatively boring, but they are all relatively honest.
"Uncle, my aunt said that lunch is ready, let Uncle Qian go eat first." Luoluo walked to the hall and said to Zhao Yuan.
"Okay, Brother Qian, you go to eat first, and I'll call everyone who works in the field to come back for lunch." Zhao Yuan said.
"Okay, then I'll be rude." Qian Hu hugged his fist at Zhao Yuan and followed Luoluo towards the kitchen.
"Master, I'll just call it." Guo Du said.
"Okay, go tell everyone to come back." Zhao Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, now he can be regarded as a subordinate person.
