After Yuan Chao issued an order on the stage that night, in the next half a month, great changes took place in Zhuangzi that would not be seen in a few lifetimes.

The large wharf south of Chenzhuang was successfully completed.

Chenzhuang College, north of Chen Village, was successfully completed.

The Chenzhuang Business School in the south of Chenzhuang has been successfully completed and has been put into use, and many children in the village have entered the business school.

Chenzhuang's 800 acres of wheat were also successfully harvested.

Now walking to all corners of Chenzhuang, you can hear the joyful laughter of Chenzhuang residents.

The men of Chen Zhuang, this month has not been idle for a while, they have built several projects one after another, but they feel not tired, more but happy, they build a school for their children, the owner Yuan Chao let his children have free books to read, they all have jobs, they can receive the salary of the owner Yuan Dynasty every month, many big and rough men take the first month of their hard-earned silver, go to Zhoujiakou to pull a few feet of cloth, and give their mother-in-law a beautiful headscarf, Let the mother-in-law who has followed her for so many years use a headscarf made of new cloth for the first time, and they have lived so happily this month.

Now, the owner of the village let them next to the wharf, build some shops, in the south of the Zhuangzi, and build some warehouses, this time the owner also selected some good hands in the nearby Zhuangzi to help, the same salary, watching the villagers of the nearby Zhuangzi line up to be selected into the Zhuangzi work, the villagers of Chenzhuang now feel more superior than the nearby villagers, the villagers of Chenzhuang out of the Zhuangzi, walk with more confidence, see other Zhuangzi villagers come all the way to say hello.

"Owner, we are building a wharf, a businessman, and a warehouse, I can see that the owner wants to do business and make money, but why doesn't the owner directly do business in Zhoujiakou? Why invest so much? Owner, you know, it's been spending a lot lately. Wang Ze is now not only the vice president of Chen Zhuang Business School, but also the bookkeeper of Yuan Chao, in charge of the ledger in Zhuangzi, and is now talking with Yuan Chao in the front hall of Yuan Chao's courtyard and Yuan Chao's office hall.

"Wang Ze, you see that I want to do business, I can only tell you, you only see half of my purpose, Wang Ze, let me ask you, what is the most convenient way to go back and forth between the south and the north now?" Yuan Chao looked at the recent changes in Zhuangzi, and calculated that it was now June of the second year of Chongzhen, and it was necessary to discuss the next layout with his bookkeeper.

"Nowadays, the most convenient transportation is naturally the waterway. Owners don't just want to do business, do they? The owner still wants to build his own boat, engage in goods, and run out his own signboard in the Shaying River? The owner of the village must know that the investment is too large, even if the owner is the son of Zhizhou, he may not have that capital. After Wang Ze figured out the layout of the Yuan Dynasty, he was so frightened that he hurriedly expressed his concerns, after all, now there are ships and goods, and those who can eat a waterway by themselves are all people who are either rich or noble. Obviously, the current Yuan Dynasty is still a little bit meaningless.

"I know that it does require a lot of money, so we are now going to do some business, complete the original accumulation of money, and then gradually buy boats, and finally I naturally want to make this Shaying River my river of wealth and provide me with a steady stream of wealth." Yuan Chao looked at Wang Ze's worried expression, but Yuan Chao was very confident in his heart, who made himself a person from the next generation, no one can sniff out business opportunities better than him.

"Okay Wang Ze, today I mainly want to tell you about this business, now Henan grain has just been harvested, and the harvest is good, I heard that the price of grain in Jiangnan is not high, I want to buy grain in large quantities now." Yuan Chao didn't wait for Wang Ze to speak, and continued.

"Owner, now the price of grain is relatively cheap, but it will not be purchased in large quantities, first, this year's grain harvest is really good, which also leads to the fact that it is difficult to sell food in the near future, and secondly, this grain is not compared to others, it has the risk of damp deterioration and mold. On the whole, the income and risk of purchasing grain are completely asymmetrical, and as a businessman, I feel that this transaction is not cost-effective. Owner, please think about it again. Wang Ze felt that today's owner seemed to have lost his mind, always saying surprising things, and hurriedly put forward his own opinions.

"I asked Zhuang Min to build a warehouse, just to store grain, now the price of grain is less than one stone or two silver, it is the lowest price, even you, a senior businessman, are not willing to buy grain at this time, then now the income difficulty is relatively low, this opportunity must be bought in large quantities, Wang Ze, please believe me, this is a good opportunity." Yuan Chao looked at Wang Ze eagerly.

Yuan Chao's eyes made Wang Ze embarrassed to refuse, this owner can always surprise us, since this time the owner is so insistent, he will try to do it, Wang Ze muttered in his heart, nodded in response.

"Okay, Wang Ze, you should now go and inform the fifteen unsuccessful merchants in that courtyard, and let them go down by boat in Zhoujiakou to the south to buy grain, and a group of people go to various places in Henan along the Shaying River to buy grain, and let them know that the average freight per stone of grain cannot exceed one tael. As for how to reduce the price, let them rely on their own abilities and figure out their own ways, and the grain does not need to stop in Zhoujiakou, and come directly to Chenzhuang Wharf. Yuan Chao paced excitedly.

"It's the owner of the village, I must make good arrangements, the owner, we have recently built so many projects, and we have paid the wages of the workers in our village, and now we have spent nearly a thousand taels of silver, and there is not much money in the account at present, may I ask what is the principal of our this time?" Wang Ze asked below.

"There are 10,000 taels of silver in the courtyard cellar, and except for 1,000 taels left for emergencies, the rest are taken out to buy grain." Yuan Chao paced more and more, it can be seen that Yuan Chao is also very excited about this decision, after all, how to sell it later, Yuan Chao is still in the groping stage, and he is not completely sure to make a steady profit without losing money, this can also be regarded as a big gamble of Yuan Chao, winning, naturally the plan can reap a lot of returns, can quickly strengthen their strength at the end of the Ming Dynasty, lose, it may be in the late Ming Dynasty This troubled era will sink for a long time. This time it was crucial for him, and this time he was only allowed to win and not lose.

"Yes, owner, although I don't understand your plan very well, I am willing to help you maximize your profits, and I will arrange the itinerary of those merchants now." Although Wang Ze was still a little worried that he was too reckless this time, when he saw Yuan Chao, he always felt that he could try to believe in this plan, and he hoped that this time the feeling was right.
