[Ask for votes, ask for reviews]

'Zhang Ailao, the deed of sale, now lives elsewhere and has a house on Huifu Street in Guangzhou. There are three rooms in Hemen City, five original main houses, four wing rooms, and one kitchen room, with a total of 13 houses. One hundred and fifty-seven steps of land, in the upper plain to build a house door, bricks, wood and stone, wall floats and patio Ming Hall and other items. Its house is located in: east to the wall of Cheng Tianqiu's house as the boundary, west to Liu Shaohua's house as the boundary, south to the corner of the wall dripping water as the boundary, north to the pedestrian road as the boundary, now with the official room tooth to say the same, as far as the line of sale and Gu Ziming's name for the business, negotiated on three sides, the price of silver at the time is a hundred and twenty whole, and the tax is eight cents and four cents and nine cents and two cents and two cents. After the sale, if there are relatives and other competing sellers, the first person who regrets is willing to punish the white rice and 100 stones into the official public. With the neutral deed, Yongyong is the light, Wanli forty-five years, selling the idea of loving the old, Yang Jiqiao, Cheng Tianqiu on the left, Liu Shaohua on the right, Zhu Liangxian on the fangya, and Gong Kexiu on behalf of the scrivener. ’

The page is no different from yesterday's deed, except that the seal on the red deed has been replaced by Panyu County. Huifu Street is located in the south of the old city, leading to Guide Straight Street to the west. Guide Straight Street from Guide Gate to the north to the Zhenhai Building, and the liberation road of Guangzhou in later generations almost coincides, the west of the straight street in the old city belongs to the jurisdiction of Nanhai County, the east is the jurisdiction of Panyu County, there are many big cities in the Ming Dynasty that are attached to Guo and two counties, and many are even attached to Guo three and four counties.

There was no problem after reading the text, Gu Ziming signed and drawn, and it was inevitable that he was still a little excited. The purchasing power of more than 100 taels of silver is not small, and now that the autumn grain has been set, I can buy a small 200 stone brown rice. However, even if such a 'huge sum' is converted according to the current prices, it is the income of an ordinary person who has not eaten or drunk in Guangzhou for one or twenty years, if it is a merchant who does some business, I am afraid it will be the balance of a few years, and I don't know how much cheaper than the housing prices in Guangzhou in the future.

Gu Ziming couldn't help but sigh that the urban real estate in the agricultural era was really worthless, that is, the transfer procedure was quite troublesome, just imagine that if the property rights in the future generations were to be handled by the buyer and seller, there were also street directors and neighbors to sign together, it would be a bit of a toss, but fortunately, now everything has been done, and the silver for witnessing and scrivening for you has also been thanked one by one, and everyone got up and said goodbye after a few words.

This is where Master Gao let the elders live temporarily, the two subordinates and a cook in the courtyard were all temporarily sent from the Gao family on Haopan Street, Gao Chongde also came over to help yesterday, but after all, it was someone else's territory, Gu Ziming estimated that Gao Ju also had a heart to monitor.

Since the general situation of Guangzhou and the Ming Dynasty was reported to the Senate, the decision of the Senate to set up bases in Guangzhou and Hainan has been passed on to all the senators who went north this time. Fu Xiaofei was decided to be in charge of the agricultural base in Sanya, and Yulin Port, as a well-known military port in later generations, was relatively closed, and it was only convenient to pass by sea.

On this voyage north, the fleet surveyed the hydrology there, and went deep into the bay along the mainland at the mouth of the trumpet, where there were only a few occasional bandits and merchants who occasionally docked to replenish fresh water, and were almost uninhabited. Luhuitou and Hutouling, two peninsulas that burst into the sea, tightly wrap Yulin Port, go inland, the surrounding mountains and forests also form a natural barrier, completely protect the narrow strip in the middle, from the land to pass through the inland Li District, Yazhou Prefecture is far away more than 100 miles away, the place is relatively safe, as long as the case is prepared for Zhizhou, I believe that Pan Daxi will not refuse the Han people to open up the wasteland there.

And about 12 kilometers away from the coast of Yulin Port is the location of the later Tiandu Iron Mine, the iron ore grade reaches 63%, the proven reserves of 5 million tons, from June 1940 to January 1945 in less than five years, the Japanese army in Tiandu 'emergency' mined 2.7 million tons of iron ore, the total reserves of Tiandu Iron Ore is not too high, but the iron ore itself is of better quality, and it is not far from the port. But the only thing is mining, the Japanese army in order to speed up the mining progress at the cost of tens of thousands of Chinese laborers, Fu Xiaofei really wanted to open up the situation there is not a day or two can do.

Of course, there is another point of technology, with the technical ability of the Japanese army in that year, the average monthly output of iron ore was about 50,000 tons, and it could reach 80,000 tons in a good month. In terms of the strength of the current traverser, it is estimated that the output of 10,000 tons of iron ore can be at most 10,000 tons a year, but even so, with the local ore grade, it is at least 5,000 tons of pig iron per year, which is equivalent to the whole of Guangdong.

But this will not start until at least next year's fleet to the north brings mining machines, and it will be at least a year before the output is calculated.

Before that, all Fu Xiaofei's team had to do was to farm in Hainan, and this relatively simple repetitive work was handed over to Mr. Fu, and there were many boys and girls who went there, and Fu Xiaofei was also responsible for education.

The relationship between Guangzhou and the outside world is more complicated, although Gao Ju is more cooperative at the moment, it is also unprofitable and cannot afford to be early, Tian Shengjin is an official-faced figure, to gain the private trust of officials, these foreigners may need to spend some thought, at this point it seems that Gu Ziming is more suitable, so when choosing the house in Guangzhou Commercial Station, the head of the household is determined to be Gu Ziming.

He is quite satisfied with this house, the original owner of the house Zhang Ai is a Jiangxi businessman, because of the cheap purchase of this courtyard house, surrounded by merchants from all over the world to do business in Guangzhou, but because of the south wing of the courtyard upside down, plus this year Yang Dongzhu's business is not good and he feels that it is feng shui that is in the way. After he bought another property outside the city, he handed it over to Fangya, but unfortunately most of the people who looked at the house were also merchants, so he was naturally not very satisfied with the feng shui of this house.

It was because this courtyard house was sold for a while, and the price was still appropriate, but almost no one cared about it, but Gu Ziming fell in love with the two-story house on the south side of this courtyard at a glance, because this courtyard is the city wall of the old city of Guangzhou to the south, so the building just blocked the view from the upper floor of the city, and for a stronghold that actually has the function of an intelligence station, the concealment is naturally better. So the courtyard house that had not been sold for a long time changed owners after Gu Ziming saw it for a long time, and Gu Ziming sent away Nakami and the neighbors, and Huang Yuluo had already started cleaning it with people.

Yesterday, Fu Xiaofei received a small two hundred 'family members' in the human market in one go, and the house that he lent them to live in was very narrow, and even the current house is not able to live in so many people, Fu Xiaofei asked Su Dart to help find a few mule and horse inns in a row, and arranged for the carriage and horses to arrange for everyone to live in the past, and also asked the store to boil hot water to bathe the newly accepted family, and today he invited a familiar clothing store to help cut clothes, Huang Yuluo's love flood is also in order.

The patriarchs, with the help of the dart masters, conducted a simple screening of those who had just bought them, and roughly determined that there were eighty-three men between the ages of ten and eighteen and fifty-one women. There were also thirty-eight women, nine craftsmen who knew some trades, two with hoops and buckets, two shoemakers, four shipwrights, and one who was actually a cat nest maker. But the skills are not very proficient, only one boatwright looks good, because of high myopia and unable to work, the family is dilapidated and came to the city to find a big family to take refuge, and more than 30 young people who fled were selected by the Ye shopkeeper.

The detailed combing of these personnel will be carried out in detail, and it will not last for a short time, so he probably will not have the opportunity to go to Macau.

After the deed was done here, the subordinates arranged by the Gao family brought refreshments, and Gu Ziming was finally able to rest for a while.

Mr. Dai Shu hadn't left yet, so he sat down with Gu Ziming and chatted.

Speaking of yesterday's situation, Gu Ziming also wondered why girls in the Guangzhou market were better than boys, "If you don't buy boys, how much more should you buy?" ”

Mr. Dai Scrivener thought that Gu Ziming had this question because he had been in the foreign land for a long time, and said with a smile: "Gu Dongzhu has been in my Ming Dynasty for a long time, and I don't know the customs in my country. But in the coastal cities of the general households are still more like girls, the local citizens have heard that the women are happy, the smell of the son is sad, the favorite is that there is a son under the knee Cheng Zong, the rest are women, since childhood are all music workers, and when they are older, they go to the home of the dignitaries to eat a leisurely meal, even if they are not good enough to go to the Qinglou painting boat to do a small singing that does not sell their bodies, they can also feed the family, it is better than the hard work of men. ”

Gu Ziming said in his heart that this urbanization is really a weapon of equal rights for men and women, once the economic status of women comes up, even with folk customs will change, it seems that it is better to be better throughout the ages, and I can't help but feel ashamed of how ignorant the ancients were, and it seems that the openness of this Guangdong atmosphere is really a combination of ancient and modern, so I have to play haha, "I heard that the customs in Fujian are different." ”

But I don't want to be treated even if I was poured cold water by that gentleman, "In fact, Fujian drowning babies is not only drowning*, but also because there are many mountains and few lands, most of the Fujian people are in business, and the more heirs there are, the more they will take away the family business, so they will drown if they have too many sons in the usual family." ”

"I see." Gu Ziming looked teachable and complimented the gentleman in front of him. "I also went to Daming to pay special attention to literature and education, even ordinary people also need to provide a scholar to come out."

The gentleman also smiled and said, "It's not easy to support and study, you see that the old man has been in the field for many years, and now he also has to live by writing for others." ”

The two talked while drinking tea, and about half an hour later, another gentleman who was ghostwriting in Renshi yesterday also arrived, and Fu Xiaofei entered the door with him. Gu Ziming saw that he hurriedly greeted him and said, "This must be Mr. Zhang, the kid is polite." ”

"I have been looking up to the proprietor for a long time, and I am fortunate to be happy." This Mr. Zhang hadn't seen Gu Ziming yesterday, but he was obviously already familiar with Fu Xiaofei, so he said politely when he entered the door.

The two gentlemen, a Gong Kexiu and a Zhang Zhigui, are both in their early forties, both of them are Xiucai in Guishan County, Huizhou Prefecture, because they are going to be raised next year, so they are now preparing for the exam in the same city of Guangzhou.

Yesterday, I saw Huang Yuluo scolding the human tooth, Fu Xiaofei rescued many refugees again, and the arrangement of the elders was in the eyes of both of them, these two people have a heart but are both upright people, and naturally praise Fu Xiaofei's good deeds.

Fu Xiaofei also knew that at this time, the impact of the famous scholar society would be great, and he was not at ease to cooperate with only one person, but other businesses were not supportive. Now since Gu Ziming wants to open a business in Guangzhou, it is better to find a team in the local area, and the shopkeeper and the account room are particularly important, the account room is good to say, Huang Yuluo and Jin Yan will stay in Guangzhou, and there is no problem for the two of them to do the accounts, at this time it is not like the later generations, although the Guangzhou market is prosperous, but the transaction is not cumbersome, the main expenses are in logistics and dotting, and the serious accounts are very simple.

The selection of the shopkeeper is more difficult, and many of the shopkeepers are old people in various businesses, and they will not let go easily, but if they dig at a high price, they will inevitably have to worry about their character. Yesterday, the two gentlemen and Fu Xiaofei hit it off at first sight, and Fu Xiaofei intended to get close, and when he saw that the two were decent, he said that he asked the two to pay attention to whether there was a suitable candidate for the shopkeeper in the same township.

Originally, Fu Xiaofei was half serious and half casual, but he didn't want the two gentlemen to be serious, saying that there was indeed a suitable candidate in his hometown, but he wanted to take a look at Gu Ziming's goods before making a decision. In this way, Gu Ziming also felt that these two people were reliable, and they took the initiative to find Gong Kexiu when they bought a house today, Zhang Zhigui went to help invite a doctor for the sick refugees in the morning, and he also came over with Fu Xiaofei, and saw a few fashionable 'jewelry' made of glass, and both gentlemen felt that Gu Dongzhu's business would definitely be able to do well, even if he had to write letters to friends in his hometown.

At this moment, Wotulu silently entered the courtyard.

"Chief...... The official sent a message to Huaiyuanyi, saying that we should prepare our bags and go to Xiangshanao with the lord of Haidao three days later. ”
