The coffee table of the prefect of Beiping City is expensive huanghuali, and even the ordinary office desk is an expensive wood that ordinary people may need to pay for several years to buy, and even the office desk has only a few case files.

The tea table is expensive, not to mention the teacups and teapots, even the dignitaries and nobles in Nanjing City may not be able to afford the teacups and teapots in the hands of the prefect of Beiping, these teacups and teapots are difficult to buy high-end products at a low price even in modern society, and even the tea is a mellow high-quality tea, Ma Sanbao couldn't help but exclaim, "The prefect's ordinary life is quite rich." ”

"Young Master Ma and His Royal Highness, don't make fun of the minister, the minister's life is relatively poor compared to the two of you, but I heard that in the industrial park of Nanjing City, the fourth highness can earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a month, and the goods are in short supply!" The prefect smiled and poured tea for Ma Sanbao and Zhu Di, the golden tea exudes a rich aroma, and even Zhu Di can't help but sigh and applaud the quality of this tea, even the tea that Zhu Yuanzhang used to entertain them last time is not as mellow as the cup of hot tea of the prefect of Beiping City.

"Let's get down to business, my industrial park in Beiping is just about to start, I wonder if the prefect has any way to help me recruit workers? In Beiping, I am not familiar with the place, it is not as convenient as Nanjing, and everything is still in the prefect's house. Zhu Di said with a smile, for the prefect, he naturally can't be respectful, who is he? Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is the biggest in this Beiping City, even the prefect of Beiping can't compare to his identity, if it weren't for Ma Sanbao telling him that he needs to put down his body, Zhu Di would still be arrogant in front of this prefect.

Zhu Di's kindness made the Beiping prefect really a little confused, in his expectation, most of the princes would rely on their identities to bully officials, but Zhu Di was different, he looked a little approachable, so that the Beiping prefect let go of too much vigilance, and while making tea for Zhu Di, he said to Zhu Di with a smile, "These four highnesses, don't worry, you have all ordered this, the villain must do it, that is, wages, what does the four highnesses command?" ”

"I used to be ten taels of silver per person a month in Nanjing, so in Beiping, this price shouldn't be too much, right?" Zhu Di thought that the prices in Beiping and Nanjing were not too much different, and in just one day, Zhu Di knew a lot about the prices in Peking and Nanjing.

"Fourth Highness, you will overreport this, let alone ten taels of silver, even if it is eight taels of silver, I think there are a lot of strong men who are willing to come to your industrial park, hehe, Your Highness, I will help you release this news, I don't know..."

"After this matter is done, there will naturally be benefits to be sent, the prefect can rest assured, I, Zhu Di, will not be harsh on the people who do things, as long as I can be satisfied, the prefect will wait for the benefits." Zhu Di also understands that if his business can be done, why should he care about a little money? It's just that he is a little dissatisfied, if he didn't rely on Ma Sanbao's industry to make a fortune, maybe the prefect of Beiping City has a lot more silver in his pocket than him.

"Hehe, then I'll rest assured that I'll do a good job, no accident, in an hour or two, all over Beiping City will be a notice from me to recruit workers for His Highness, when the time comes, Your Highness don't forget the minister." The prefect of Beiping flattered him, if an ordinary prince might not be able to speak to Zhu Di, he couldn't help but appreciate Zhu Di a little, but unfortunately, he didn't know that Zhu Di was also making small calculations in his heart, and it was not as simple as he thought.

"Then I'll leave." Zhu Di smiled and said to the prefect, right now, you only need to give the prefect certain benefits to be able to help recruit workers, why not? With goods, not to mention sales channels, there will naturally be no shortage of sales channels, after all, there is a golden sign of the prince, how to sell it may have people to pay.

Before leaving the prefect's mansion, Zhu Di rolled his eyes, and in his ears, Ma Sanbao's voice suddenly sounded, "This Beiping prefect is not simple, Hu Weiyong is just like that, it seems that only Shang Wei and Wei Ze's mansions look poorer, especially Shang Hui, as a former imperial historian, even the rockery is so simple, how much can the Beiping prefect collect in a month, or is my Ming Dynasty's welfare better?" ”

"Doesn't this require our Overseer to appear, right? Anyway, it's not you who asks him for help, when the time comes, it's none of my business for you to supervise, I hope we can tell my father about this matter as soon as possible, so that my father can know how corrupt the Beiping bureaucracy is! Zhu Di gritted his teeth, the prefect of Beiping looked like he wanted to take advantage of it everywhere, which made Zhu Di a little uncomfortable, the most important thing for the official is for the people, for the royal family, but even the benefits of the royal family dare to ask for it, which makes Zhu Di very unhappy, after all, the feudal system pays attention to the hierarchy, and Zhu Di is a prince, so he is naturally not used to the ugly behavior of this prefect.

"Hehe, I'll naturally investigate this point, at least, let's get our industrial park up first, as for the evidence, after a while, the old fox will look for us to get more shares, and when the time comes, the evidence will be at your fingertips!" Ma Sanbao and Zhu Di glanced at each other in the carriage, and the two laughed out loud, being able to punish those corrupt officials in Beiping is also a great achievement, of course, Ma Sanbao and Zhu Di have made up their minds, that is, to squeeze their last bit of ability to use, at least to run the current industrial park.

An hour later.

Zhu Di had just had lunch and was about to take a lunch break, when an official came to deliver news outside the mansion, which made Zhu Di inevitably a little surprised, the efficiency of this Beiping prefect is too high, right? In the city of Nanjing, it takes at least half a day, and the prefect of Beiping only took an hour.

"Your Highness, the prefect asked me to tell you that the workers you want have been recruited, and there are thousands of strong men willing to contribute to His Highness, what do you think?" The official's words made Zhu Di gasp, thousands of strong men, he is just a few hundred workers in the industrial park in Nanjing City, what is the concept of these thousand strong men? In the future where Ma Sanbao is located, even if it is an ordinary factory, most of them only have a few hundred employees, and the funds needed by these thousands of employees will start large, even Zhu Di is a little painful, his offer to the prefect is ten taels of silver per person, and Zhu Di needs to pay a full ten thousand taels of silver.

In the Ming Dynasty, thousands of strong men need to be recruited except for the construction of royal buildings, why should they be like this at the rest of the time?

Thousands of strong men even Ma Sanbao can not help but be a little shocked, he has heard that some big projects need thousands of strong men, but never thought that the development of an industrial park needs thousands of strong men, his drawings are very simple, the industrial park does not need to be particularly complicated to build, as long as hundreds of strong men, fortunately he brought a few workers from the industrial park in Nanjing City to Beiping City, giving a higher salary, only need this group of people to teach the newly recruited strong men can produce the products they need.

"Thousand, and a lot of materials, 100,000 taels of expenses!" Zhu Di couldn't help but gasp, he used the convenience of his position to collect materials everywhere in Nanjing City, but now that he is in Beiping, where he is not familiar with his life, the price of materials makes Zhu Di a little surprised, even if Zhu Di can take out these silver taels, he will inevitably feel pain, after all, this is not a small number.

"Tell your prefect, we took it, it's what he wanted, we have to give it to him after a while, it's too much of a burden for us, the silver two are in a room, and we can move out after finding someone to count them." Ma Sanbao held his forehead, and saw Zhu Di waving his hand, he made this decision, money is a thing, and sooner or later it will be rewarded, after all, the cost of 100,000 taels of materials will not double the return for them.

Seeing Zhu Di's seal fall on the letter handed by the official, even the official couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, after all, he had never seen so many silver taels, he had dedicated most of his life to Beiping City, and the reward he could get was thousands of taels of silver, and 100,000 taels of silver were given in Zhu Di's hands, which made the official a little envious of Zhu Di's status as a prince, but he didn't know that even if it was other princes, it was impossible for him to be as rich as Zhu Di, and his money was earned by himself and Ma Sanbao.

"Fourth Highness, I'll go back and report to the prefect!" The official who was frightened by the amount of money and broke out in a cold sweat hurriedly put away the letter handed by Zhu Di, looking at the bright red official seal, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and the hand that connected the letter looked trembling, he trotted all the way and ran onto the carriage sent by the prefect of Beiping, and even looked a little flustered when driving the horses.

"Hey, we went out with 100,000 taels of silver, but I don't know how much kickback the prefect of Peking will eat." Ma Sanbao sighed, he was not sensitive to the price of raw materials, but he knew that although the materials he needed were large, they would not reach the realm of 100,000 taels, and the current quotation of the prefect of Beiping was too amazing.

"What do you mean by kickbacks?" Zhu Di asked suspiciously.

"It's just to make the difference from us, and it's a huge difference." Ma Sanbao explained for Zhu Di that what responded to him was Zhu Di's somewhat angry expression.

"Brother Xian, why didn't you tell me when you knew he would profit from it?" Zhu Di was angry, he didn't want to make some money for others, but when he learned that part of the silver two had fallen into the pockets of the prefect of Beiping, he couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied.

"Give him a little profit first, he will know how to do things for us, and this is not the evidence, when the time comes, we will leave a little mark on the silver taels, if we find the imprinted silver taels when we copy his house in the future, wouldn't we catch them?" Ma Sanbao pushed Zhu Di's waist with his elbow and reminded with a wicked smile.
