Wu Xiang watched Chen Zijian take people away, said hello to Li Zhuer and a few people, and then took the two girls to a place in a hurry, Chen Zijian will not let them do the things of husband and child at home, give them things to do, Chen Zijian doesn't want the harem to fight, let her women make money for the children born in the future, women have things to do, they won't think about other things to compete for favor, there is time to compete for favor, it is not as important as earning a lot of property for their future children.

All Chen Zijian is now living in peace with several women in the harem, and he has not caused trouble.

Five miles east of Zhangjia Village, not far from a river, a factory building was completed ten days ago, and more than 200 carpenters recruited by Chen Zijian, and more than 600 apprentices, received a formal order to process the trees transported here into planks, and then put them in a special workshop for drying planks to dry for the next task.

Not far away, 30 docks are being built, because the ships of this era are not as exaggerated as the 10,000 or 100,000 tons of ships built in later generations, and the current sailing ships are only a few dozen or hundreds of tons, and then there are five or six hundred tons of wooden ship structures, and there is no need to consider so many things to build this kind of ships, and the docks with a length of 80 meters and a width of 30 meters are enough to meet the current shipbuilding needs by the river.

Chen Zijian will open the era of navigation in China in the future, and the demand for ships will not be less, so there are 30 docks to be built at the same time, because of the application of cement, the cost of such a scale dock is not much.

Supporting the dock is the timber mill, now the shipbuilding is wood, and the wood needed is also an astronomical amount, but it can be assured that the timber reserves in the southern region of the Ming Dynasty are very large, and there are big trees about half a meter in diameter on the mountain, Chen Zijian only needs to send people up the mountain to cut down the trees.

As for whether it will cause soil erosion in the area in the future, there is no need to worry about this. The area where Maoming County is located belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate, no matter how much you spoil the vegetation on the mountain, there will be no soil erosion, even if you set fire to the mountain, as long as it takes a year and a half, it will be covered by plants again.

Shipbuilding craftsmen, this Chen Zijian also has nothing to worry about, the migration of the population of the two counties is not to say, among them there are craftsmen from all walks of life, shipbuilding craftsmen Chen Zijian has recruited more than 500 people, this is still skilled shipbuilding craftsmen, and so on after the start of shipbuilding, each craftsman let them take five or six apprentices, and so on after the apprentices come out, Chen Zijian does not have to worry about shipbuilding craftsmen, as for how to make apprentices grow quickly Master, Chen Zijian seems to be nothing more than two aspects, one is that the master teaches seriously, The other is a lot of shipbuilding experience, when Chen Zijian gives orders for hundreds of ships, with a lot of shipbuilding work accumulation, I believe that the apprentice can quickly become a master.

Will the shipbuilder keep a hand, or don't want to take an apprentice, hehe, what does Chen Zijian do, he is a thief, the craftsman is obedient and easy to say, can bring out a qualified apprentice, Chen Zijian will not be stingy with silver, bring out a person and leave two hundred silver, if you don't cooperate, then go to the mine to mine, three-legged people are not easy to find, two-legged people are not everywhere.

Wu Xiang sat in the carriage and came towards the wood factory, she originally had a soap business, but there was not much oil in Zhangjia Village, when there was plenty of soap for her, it was hard to get it, only from the oil to below the warning line, there was not enough edible oil to supplement, there were hunters to hunt wild boars in the wild, and a small amount of lard was obtained, but in the face of the current demand for edible oil for more than 100,000 people, the amount of input was not enough to mention, of course, if Chen Zijian stipulated that each person had two taels of oil a month, it could also be maintained for a period of time, but now the people of Zhangjia Village are being raised by Chen Zijian, and when they go back to their previous life, they have to protest or something, although Chen Zijian, who is protesting against something, doesn't care.

Lack of oil, then find a way to solve it, saving the amount is not saved, Chen Zijian's outing this time is to solve the problem of oil, because there is not much edible oil, Zhang Youde will not let Wu Xiang buy edible oil, Wu Xiang knows that it is powerful, and he did not quarrel with Zhang Youde, soap is made a lot, enough time, there is no need to fall out with a celebrity like Zhang Youde, there is nothing at hand, of course Wu Xiang is willing.

Now the price in the store is one tael of silver, cleaning supplies are so expensive, will anyone buy them? Not to mention, with a few women in Chen Zijian's harem, plus Li Shi, Li Hu's harem women, so many people are demonstrating, the soap business is not bad, after all, the people of Zhangjia Village have received a lot of dividends, and there are also many people who can buy soap for one or two pieces of silver.

Soap can't be produced, Wu Xiang's silver income is less, last night Wu Xiang was coquettish and cute, after meeting Chen Zijian, he put forward a request to earn silver, for his own woman's request, of course Chen Zijian will not refuse, important state-owned enterprises can not let people except Chen Zijian be contaminated, and there are many other livelihood matters.

Zhangjiacun is developing rapidly, and there are many opportunities, and it is really not a problem for anyone to seize the opportunity and make money.

Chen Zijian quickly gave Wu Xiang advice, now the houses in the new district are about to be sold, the people have bought the house, do they want furniture, a set of chairs and tables down, how can it be possible without a tael of silver, tens of thousands of houses will say at least 10,000 taels of silver, the houses will be expanded, and this business can continue in the future, Wu Xiang heard such an opinion, and the next day after Chen Zijian set off, he brought people to the timber mill.

Wu Xiang went outside the lumber mill and asked the person in charge to come out.

"Little Zhang Wu, I've seen Madame, I don't know what Madame has to tell you to come over?"

When Zhang Wu heard that the chief's wife was coming, he didn't understand why, but he still came out to meet him as soon as possible.

Wu Xiang said generously, "Steward Zhang, I want to use a batch of wood." ”

Zhang Wu was a little depressed, "Madam, if it's a small amount, it's okay to send someone over, you don't need to come in person." ”

Wu Xiang shook his head, "Steward Zhang, I have to use a lot of wood." ”

"I wonder if Madame has the chief's orders?"

Zhang Wu asked, there is Chen Zijian's order, the wood is pulled away casually, anyway, all this is Chen Zijian's, no one said anything, if it is only Mrs. Wu Xiang who needs wood, Zhang Wu is a little embarrassed, it stands to reason that the chief's things are also the chief's wife's, and it is nothing for the lady to pull the wood away, but the chief will investigate it, and it will be difficult to explain.

Wu Xiang: "This husband knows, but the wood is used by me, and I will give you silver to buy it." ”

Of course, Chen Zijian knows that it is Wu Xiang who earns his own silver, and when the furniture is sold, the silver will go to her small treasury, and naturally she can't use wood for free.

Zhang Wu breathed a sigh of relief, sighed at Mrs.'s understanding, he quoted Wu Xiang a minimum price, didn't make more money for Wu Xiang's silver, uh, I don't dare, it's good to be able to recover the cost, earn Mrs.'s silver, and when the time comes, he will be held accountable by the chief, where will he reason!

Finalize the matter of timber, Wu Xiang went back to Zhangjia Village, the timber factory is Chen Zijian's company, if you let someone else come, Zhang Wu will not give others any face, if you want wood, go and get it yourself, or come over with the chief's order, otherwise don't count on it.

Only when Wu Xiang personally went out of the horse, Zhang Wu gave the chief's wife this face. Others come over, Zhang Wu still doesn't sell it! This is the chief's strategic material, which can be sold to others at will.

Individuals go up the mountain, it is okay to get a few trees, and if you want to meet the amount of wood manufacturing for furniture in the new area, don't count on it, that is, Chen Zijian has recruited a large number of personnel, and the division of labor and cooperation has such a large amount of wood reserves.

Wu Xiang went back to Zhangjia Village, recruited dozens of carpenters, took out the chairs, tables and bed styles that Chen Zijian had painted for him, and hurriedly made several batches of furniture and put them in the new area for people to visit.

"Take a look, take a look, the new furniture made by the chief's wife, everyone came to take a look."

The men shouted, attracting the people to come, and a few sets of furniture that had been brought out in a hurry still exuded the fragrance of wood.

Zhang Laosi one of them, when he drew lots, he caught a number, has paid money to buy a new house, unlike others, he gave the silver to buy a house at one time, is a little tyrant, see the furniture for sale here, think of the dilapidated furniture at home, the poor and reluctant to wear out the furniture before, now there is new furniture, and there is no shortage of money.

Squeezing away the crowd in front, Zhang Laosi saw the style of the furniture, and the guy said that the chief's home is also like this kind of furniture, and he was moved, he can't be richer than the chief, and he uses the same furniture as the chief, which is also very good, "How much is a set of these furniture, man." ”

The guy arched his hand, "The guest officer is interested, you see that these are made according to the chief's intentions, a set of furniture originally cost two taels of silver, but the new store opened, and the chief's wife gave everyone a good price, and now it only costs one or two silver." If the guest officer wants to, he will make up his mind early. ”

Only one or two silver, Zhang Laosi directly made a set, other people bought a new house, are worried about the lack of something, after seeing the furniture, it suddenly dawned on me, it turned out that there was a lack of furniture, seeing someone take the lead in buying, there is nothing to say, and then they have placed orders to order.

Wu Xiang watched the scene of the crowd of bees coming over from behind, and her smiling eyebrows were crooked, as sweet as drinking honey. After the soap business, there is a new source of money, Wu Xiang is happy in his heart, if Chen Zijian is here, he can't wait to hug him.

Although the soap was temporarily stopped, Chen Zijian assured Wu Xiang that he would soon be able to supply her with cheap oil, and then she would be able to let go of her hands and feet to produce, and the silver would not fly into her pocket at that time.
