Seeing that Gu Bei repented and accepted everyone's opinions, everyone immediately cheered, and the victims began to take seedlings to the field to plant.

"Everyone, the rest is up to you, but a hundred acres of land needs to be planted by throwing seedlings as I said, how about it?"

When he said this, everyone wanted to protest again, and finally after thinking about it, forget it, this place was originally Gu Bei's.

Since the proprietor has listened to their opinions, rebuttal will only make the proprietor lose face. In the end, under the persuasion of a respected old man, everyone agreed.

The victims giggled and threw the seedlings to the 100 acres of field, and the 100 acres of field were planted with the method of throwing seedlings, and only about 50 acres of rice fields were planted in the traditional rice field next to it.

Gu Bei shook his head secretly, pulling and planting seedlings with his face facing the loess and his back to the sky was really time-consuming and laborious.

Forget it, let's wait until the harvest is over!

The rice fields began to be planted, and Gu Bei began to raise fish in the rice fields one by one.

Because of the limitations of fishing technology, it was not easy to eat fish in ancient times.

However, Gu Bei wanted to raise fish, but it was very troublesome, because there were no fish fry for sale in Daxia......

In this regard, Gu Bei could only buy all kinds of small fish caught from the fishermen who fished in the Qinhuai River at a high price, as well as fish with eggs and put them into the rice fields.

He doesn't pick the species of fish, he wants whatever the fishermen catch.

Chen Jinwang had already informed the owner of the fish farming in the field before, and the victims were not surprised.

During this period of busy rice farming, the construction of high-rise buildings has never stopped.

Today's Luobei Port is in ruins, everything is being rebuilt, and it is no longer an uninhabited wasteland. The victims have a place to live, rice has been planted, there is hope in their hearts, and they are full of enthusiasm to work.

At this moment, at a huge construction site in the north of the high-rise building, countless victims and craftsmen have bulldozed the soothing slope and rested a huge flat land of more than 100 acres. After the land is leveled, countless houses will rise from the ground and become a market for the resettlement of merchants in Luobei Port.

Li Laosan's coarse linen clothes were covered with mud, and when he saw Gu Bei coming, he really got out of the crowd of a group of craftsmen and came to Gu Bei, and said with a smile, "I've seen my uncle!" ”

The originally somewhat rickety body became more and more bent, and a few frowns were added to the face covered with dense ravines, but the steps were still steady between the lines, and the spirit of the whole person was unprecedentedly high, and the corners of the eyebrows and eyes were full of confidence.

The corners of Gu Bei's mouth were slightly raised, and he patted him on the shoulder and praised: "I've worked hard lately." ”

Li Laosan was flattered, his old face was full of smiles, and he said repeatedly: "It's not hard, it's not hard." ”

A person's state does not come from whether the body is healthy or whether the face is young, but more from self-confidence and mood.

In the past, Li Laosan was worried about his family's livelihood and ran around all day long, lest he make the slightest mistake and offend a nobleman.

Be submissive and cautious...... This is Li Laosan's daily life.

But since following his uncle, Gu Bei has trusted him and let him participate in the construction of high-rise buildings, and after becoming the chief engineer, it is as if he has ushered in a new life.

He can now devote himself wholeheartedly to the construction of Luobei Port, and he can go all out to help his uncle realize his ideals; can be commanded and scolded loudly, and no one dares to say that he is not; You can do your best to show your strength, and no one will point fingers......

This is life!

Now Li Laosan only thinks about dedicating the rest of his life to his uncle, not wasting his life, showing his ability, and getting his uncle's approval.

Gu Bei looked around under the leadership of Li Laosan before asking, "Lao Li, how long will it take for these shops to be built?" ”

"Uncle, it will be completed in about three months, and after these victims know that this is a construction market, they will work hard one by one, but they don't dare to cheat."

Gu Bei nodded after listening, he could also understand the inner thoughts of the victims, for the place where they would live in the future, of course they hoped that the more prosperous the better, there were restaurants, cloth villages, and inns in the port...... It will also bring more convenience to their lives.

If there are shops stationed in the port, their surplus grain every year can be sold directly nearby, and there is no need to get up early in the morning and rush to the capital city eight or nine kilometers away.

The victims are very simple, working for Gu Bei, not only to build their own homes, but also to get money, and to take care of two full meals a day, where to find such a good job?

This shop Gu Bei has already been planned, completely get rid of the ancient "front shop and backyard", adopt a modern style, the shops are all red bricks made of three-story buildings, the first floor is used as an item display, the second floor can be used as a warehouse for goods, and the third floor is used as a resting and office space, the advantage of this construction is that the shop area is enough but will not occupy more land area, which is refreshing.

In fact.

Wooden houses, in fact, are the most time-consuming.

In order to maintain the transparency of the store, Gu Bei plans to use floor-to-ceiling windows on the second and third floors, so that it will be extremely transparent when living in it in the future.

cough, of course, the flat glass and tiles produced by his family will come in handy, and the glass and tiles will not be installed? It's okay, there is occasionally a professional renovation team......

Each building is spaced about a foot apart, which is to avoid the danger of the house to the adjacent building after the water runs.

The shops are built in the shape of a tic-tac-toe, and the street between the rows is three zhang wide, which is equivalent to about ten meters in later generations. The street is paved with asphalt stone, a new material, and the big man raises a hammer to tamp it, and the top is paved with cement slurry to ensure that it is smooth and strong.

At the temporary noon, in the shed on the side, there were a few dishes on the table, a plate of cold pork ears, a plate of lettuce and cucumbers, a stack of meat sauce, and a bottle of Chinese wine brewed by Gu Bei.

Gu Bei and a group of four people sat on the ground, snoring and eating mixed noodles, and the tender gherkins were dipped in the sauce and chewed crisply......

This picture is too beautiful, so when Mrs. Liu came over and saw this scene, a pair of beautiful eyes were round, and her sharp chin was about to fall off and hit the top of her feet......

Slender white fingers pinched the skirt, delicate embroidered shoes stood on tiptoe, carefully dodging the mud on the ground, Tao Yao fluttered like a graceful butterfly.

Gu Bei held the noodles in his mouth, raised his head to look, chewed the noodles in his mouth a few times and swallowed them, and muttered vaguely: "Why is she here?" ”

"Owner, Mrs. Liu has been here a few times since she heard that a shop is going to be built here." Chen Jinwang finished eating the noodles and explained with a full burp.

Hearing this, Gu Bei glared at Lao Chen fiercely, no wonder it was so coincidental, it turned out that you reported the news, pointed to the stool on the side, and said, "Rare guest, Mrs. Liu, please sit ......"

Mrs. Liu was uninvited one moment ago, and the next moment she was shocked by Gu Bei's appearance. The dignified uncle of the Guogong Mansion actually sat in the shack like this and ate such a simple meal.

Is this really Aunt Baifu?

"I've seen Gu Xiannan!" Mrs. Liu pursed her lips and lifted her skirt to give a blessing.

"Mrs. Liu, don't be polite!"

Gu Bei didn't raise his head, lowered his head, and continued to eat noodles.

Mrs. Liu wiped the sweat beads on her face and stood aside, the atmosphere was suddenly a little embarrassing, and after a while, Li Laosan and Chen Jinwang pulled Xiao Ran to find a lame excuse and left.

Gu Bei finally finished eating a bowl of noodles, drank the bowl of soup and water, took out a brocade from his arms and wiped the corners of his mouth, looked up at Mrs. Liu's beautiful face, and said with a smile: "Do you want Mrs. Liu to have a bowl too?" ”

Gu Bei was originally polite, but Mrs. Clinker Liu walked straight in front of Gu Bei, lifted her skirt, knelt on the floor where Chen Jinwang was sitting just now, and said with a smile: "Since Gu County Man has a treat, let's give the slave family a bowl too!" ”

Gu Bei was dumbfounded, and his eyes were extremely weird.

"Poof......" Mrs. Liu was amused by Gu Bei's expression, wiped the tip of her nose, sniffed, and blinked: "Why, the dignified Gu County man won't be reluctant to give up a bowl of noodles, right?" ”

Gu Beixin said, this girl is a little different from when she was arrested before! In the past, the pitiful and embarrassing people wanted to hug and take care of it at a glance, but now it is extremely bold and provocative.

Gu Bei beckoned: "Hurry up, give Mrs. Liu a bowl of noodles......"

Someone came running to fill a bowl of noodles and poured a spoonful of red oil, and the spicy smell came to the face, and the smell of it greatly boosted the appetite.

Mrs. Liu was not polite, rolled up her sleeves, revealing a white little arm like a tender lotus, picked up the chopsticks and took a small bite.

It's just that I don't know if the dogwood is too spicy, or if the weather is hot and stuffy, eating and eating, the beads of sweat on Mrs. Liu's pretty face are rolling down like spring shoots......

Beads of sweat flowed, but Mrs. Liu kept putting noodles in her mouth, and her cheeks were raised high, like a squirrel storing nuts for the winter......

Eating and putting down the chopsticks, Mrs. Liu raised her head, took out a handkerchief and wiped her face, her delicate makeup was already a mess, and she didn't care about her image at all. Mrs. Liu in front of her is no longer gentle and elegant, but a little more straightforward......

Mrs. Liu took a few deep sips, but picked up the glass bottle full of Chinese wine on the table, pulled out the cork, brought it to her lips and raised her neck, and drank a few big sips, the transparent wine overflowed from the corners of her mouth, and cut into the neckline along the white and graceful neck, submerging into a piece of whiteness......

Gu Bei opened his mouth wide......

Mrs. Liu took away the wine bottle, happened to take Gu Bei's expression into her eyes, and said in amazement: "This ...... Isn't this water? What kind of wine is this? It smells so good......"

Whose water do you see in glass bottles?

Gu Bei stared at the wine bottle in Mrs. Liu's hand, muttered for a while, and then said: "This is Gu's newly brewed wine, named Huajiu, just such a bottle, priced at fifty taels of silver......

Mrs. Liu looked at Gu Bei's serious appearance, smiled, and her beautiful face bloomed like a hundred flowers, which made the entire shed bright in an instant......

Probably feeling a little rude, Mrs. Liu suppressed her laughter, two blushes appeared on her white cheeks, and she said embarrassedly: "Gu Xiannan, this is ...... And the wine was bought by the slaves. ”

Gu Bei smiled, "It's okay, there are a lot of this kind of wine!"

Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment, looked at the wine bottle in her hand, was silent for a moment, bit her lip, and suddenly said, "This wine ...... This wine ...... I don't know ...... slave."

Gu Bei was stunned, he saw the business opportunity so soon?

Sure enough, you can't underestimate women, Mrs. Liu can bring Liu's medicine store to this height with the body of a woman, there must be something outstanding!

"Mrs. Liu, I'm sorry, I want to build a workshop to sell this Chinese wine separately!" Gu Bei glanced at her apologetically.

"Gu Xiannan, you ...... Misunderstanding the slave family, this kind of fine wine slave family does not dare to hope to buy shares, only ask the county man to brew it, can give it to the slave...... An agency ......" Mrs. Liu's eyes wandered, and she said in a soft and glutinous voice.

"No problem!"

This is not too much to ask, it is the same for him to whom the agent is given, and he will not lose anyway.

"One more thing......"

The reason why she came here was that Chen Jinwang sent someone to report the news. With her understanding of Gu Bei, Gu Bei has often made some unexpected moves in the past few months, but in the end, she has never suffered a loss, including buying land, receiving victims, and building shops...... so she wanted to take the opportunity to buy a few shops.

After coming here, it was a surprise to get the agency of "Huajiu" in advance, but in this way, would it be too much to ask for it again......

"Mrs. Liu, after all, we are through hardships together, if there is anything, as long as a certain gang is on it, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it!"

Seeing what he said easily, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but smile, and after a while, she said tentatively: "After the completion of Luobei Port, the slave family wants to buy a few shops. ”

I wanted to say a specific number, but I was afraid that Gu Bei would refuse. When he agrees, he might as well say the number again, and if he still refuses, he will take a step back......

Clinker Gu Bei nodded dryly: "No problem!" I don't know how many Mrs. Liu wants? ”

"Uh......" Mrs. Liu's eyes widened, almost thinking she was hallucinating.

Who doesn't know that Luobei Port is Gu Bei's territory, although Ying Tianfu people still don't quite understand what Gu Bei wants to build here, but after the shop is completed, there will inevitably be businessmen who will come to buy the shop.

It's just that once that time comes, there are more merchants found, and the price will definitely increase.

Just looking at the scale of the port, looking at the street planned by the shops, anyone who cares can guess that Gu Bei has a great appetite.

Everyone knows in their hearts that none of the things invented by Gu Bei alone are useless. Or it is an object that seeks huge profits, or a waterwheel for the benefit of the people, or an act of receiving disaster victims......

Today alone, Gu Bei took out a mellow wine and a crystal clear glass bottle, and Mrs. Liu became more and more confident in Gu Bei.

Since she won the agency of Tianxianglu, the silver sold every month is transported to her home, which is not too easy to make money than her hard work to support the medicine store, and even a few shopkeepers who opposed her to auction the agency right at the beginning, now see her are all smiling, and they no longer dare to rely on the old and sell the old, and take more wages, who will refuse?

But now, before he said how many he wanted, he agreed?

It is precisely because it is too easy, it is unbelievable that Gu Bei promised so easily, is it because he has no confidence to continue to operate?

Mrs. Liu's expression changed on her face, but she heard Gu Bei say: "Mrs. Liu, as the first merchant to enter Luobei Port, I will give you five stores for free, but there is one condition. ”

Mrs. Liu is relieved now, it's too easy to accept...... Then the heart was raised again, could it ...... Did he treat me like any other man......

A soft and glutinous voice trembled: "What conditions?" ”

Gu Bei pointed to the noisy construction site outside and said: "It's not a secret, this construction site seems to be lively, and the project is progressing quickly, but in fact, there are many hidden dangers, and the most important point is the lack of skilled craftsmen." ”

That's what it requires! Mrs. Liu held her forehead for a while, and her heart was relieved, thinking that she didn't have a ...... for him Oops, what am I thinking......

There is a shortage of craftsmen, because the best builders in the entire Great Xia are in Jiulong Mountain to build the Zhaoling Tomb for His Majesty the Emperor. After every emperor ascended the throne, he would build a mausoleum for himself, and Emperor Xia was no different.

In these years, Emperor Xia accelerated the pace of construction, recruited skilled craftsmen almost all over the world, and worked overtime day and night. I don't want to die when the mausoleum is not finished.

Some of the remaining craftsmen were either disdainful of Emperor Xia, or they kept buildings such as palaces and could not be recruited. After deducting these, how many craftsmen in Ying Tianfu can be left?

Mrs. Liu asked, "How can the slave family help?" ”

Gu Bei shook his head and said, "I don't need your help, but I want you to participate." ”

"Participation?" Mrs. Liu's good-looking eyebrows furrowed.

"That's right, I believe that Madame Fuzhong and Zhuangzi have their own craftsmen, who can gather them and participate in the construction of Luobei Port. An area designated by the lady will be within this area, and you will be responsible for the payment, and the wages will be paid in advance, and you will ...... after completion."

He pointed to Chen Jinwang and Li Laosan in the distance: "Lao Chen and Li Laosan will pass the acceptance, and then the wages will be settled to you." Although Madame paid in advance, the surplus was still very considerable. ”

Mrs. Liu's eyes flowed, could it be that the main purpose of Gu Bei's "outsourcing" of the project was to raise funds, and he couldn't take out so much money for a while?

Mrs. Liu thought that she had figured out Gu Bei's little abacus, and said: "To be honest, this kind of construction is a ...... for the slave family."

Gu Bei didn't wait for her to finish, then said with a smile: "Madame doesn't know, only when you get affirmation in the construction of Luobei Port can you be qualified to get the best gold store...... In other words, people who have not built Luobei Port will not be qualified to be a gold store even if they spend a lot of money in the future. Besides, there is no need for Mrs. to supervise the work herself, and our chief engineer will coordinate and arrange it. ”

Although Mrs. Liu can't see the potential value of Luobei Port, she believes that Gu Bei can fight hard.

If she succeeds, she will make a lot of money, get five golden shops for free, and she can't run the salary of the construction, and she can still have a good relationship with Gu County's man.

If she fails, she doesn't lose money, and these shops don't pay a silver tael, as for the salary? The dignified baron of the Empire and the 'God of Wealth' of Ying Tianfu, would he still deceive a woman?
