Sun Ce laughed. "Madame is an understanding person, no wonder she fell in love with Huang Hansheng at a glance. In response to your words, if there is a chance in the future, I will definitely seal you a decree. ”

Qin Luo bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "I won't ask for the order, let's leave it to Sister Hu." I'd rather earn a title on my own, I don't know if I have this opportunity. ”

"No problem."

Qin Luo turned to Feng Wan and Huang Yueying and said, "Two sisters, see it, your husband has already planned, so you don't have to worry about it at all." You guys, just do your own thing, it's not what you're good at. ”

Feng Wan and Huang Yueying looked at each other with blank expressions. Huang Yueying's eyes rolled, she jumped up, grabbed Sun Ce's sleeve and shook it vigorously. "Tell me, tell me, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing, why can't I understand it."

Sun Ce pinched Huang Yueying's nose. "What's so difficult about this, think about it, the most ordinary craftsmen in the Wood Academy can earn an income equivalent to that of the county magistrate every year, when they get to Guanzhong, can Xun Yu give them so much? It would be nice to give them 100 stones. If it was before, they were just ordinary craftsmen, and they could suddenly get an income of 100 stones, maybe they would be very satisfied, but now that they are used to an income of three or four hundred stones, can they still look at those 100 stones? ”

Huang Yueying was able to see through a little bit, giggling non-stop. "I remember, when the craftsmen were given a fortune, it was so that people couldn't dig the corners of the wall, and now Xun Yu wants to jump into this pit, it's easy to jump in, but it's hard to jump out."

Sun Ce laughed twice.

Feng Wan still didn't quite understand. "The income of ordinary craftsmen is about 100 stones, and the rest is rewarded income, can't Xun Yu do this? They can also transfer the technology to other workshops and then charge a transfer fee. ”

Sun Ce nodded, and was about to explain, when Huang Yueying preemptively said, "Sister Wan, you're right, but this is the most difficult thing to learn. Workshops are willing to spend money on technology because they can sell their products to make money. If the same product sells 10,000 or 100,000 pieces, their profits are not the same. How much can be sold depends not only on whether the product is good or not, but also on the population. There are more than two million people in Nanyang, and nearly six million in Jingzhou, how many are in Guanzhong? A million at most, half of them are homeless, they even have a problem with food, where can they get the money to buy the products of the workshop? ”

Feng Wan suddenly realized, a little embarrassed. "I'm so stupid, you all get it, I haven't understood it yet."

Sun Ce put his arm around Feng Wan's shoulders and shook it gently. "You're not alone, I put a lot of effort into preparing for this bureau, and I lost a lot of hair. Awan, let's accept our fate, compared to these smart people, we are both stupid. ”

Qin Luo couldn't help laughing, covered his mouth, and laughed with a "puff". Feng Wan was also embarrassed, lowered his head, and pushed Sun Ce twice coquettishly.

——

Sun Ce struck while the iron was hot and called Mo Ze. Although Mo Zhi was very reluctant, since Sun Ce had made a decision, he could only do it, and returned to the front hall to gather all the craftsmen before asking Sun Ce to announce the decision.

In the face of dozens of anxious craftsmen, Sun Ce didn't say any nonsense, and directly announced his decision: come and go freely, no one will be less than the money that should be given, everyone will send a travel fee, and after counting the number of people, choose a day for them to eat and thank them for their hard work in the past year.

Before the words fell, the craftsmen who wanted to leave Nanyang were relieved and cheered in unison.

"Thank you, General!"

"General, even if we return to Guanzhong, we will not forget the general's great kindness."

Sun Ce waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet. "Ladies and gentlemen, we won't say polite words. Before leaving, there are a few good words to say. The New Year is coming, and you have money in your hands, so you can buy some New Year's goods in Wancheng and go home. It's not that I'm talking big, looking at the world, or there are a lot of good things in Nanyang, right? When you arrive in Chang'an, even if you can buy it, it can't be at this price, you can make a profit for your own use, you have face, and you can sell it. Nanyang's ox cart can be loaded and cheap, and several people will not lose money if they buy a car together. ”

Everyone burst into laughter and said, "General, if we listen to you, we will definitely not lose." ”

"It's still the general's benevolence and righteousness, and he thinks about us everywhere."

“……”

Sun Ce didn't make much sense, it was all vernacular, the craftsmen listened happily, and burst into bursts of laughter from time to time, and more and more people gathered, and even those who passed by outside were attracted a lot. Liu Ba was also among them, he went to the county school to visit friends, passed by the wooden school, heard the excitement inside, and was curious for a while, and followed in. Standing in the crowd, he saw Sun Ce talking eloquently on the steps at a glance, and after listening to a few words, he began to feel vulgar and disdainful, and then listened to a few words of Sun Ce's advice for the craftsman who was about to return to his hometown, and he couldn't help but laugh. According to Sun Ce's plan, he can really make a lot of money by taking the money to buy a scalper, a big car, and sell a cart of goods in Wancheng, and then sell some of the goods when he returns to Guanzhong.

He muttered to himself. "It's worthy of being a melon seller, and this account is really good."

Liu Ba listened for a while, turned around and wanted to leave, but was grabbed by a person by the sleeve. He turned his head to look, but it was not an outsider, it was Liu Xun who was walking with him all the way. However, Liu Xun was no longer a prisoner at the moment, he had changed into a new suit, and he was followed by a few guards in armor, as if he had become an official again.

"Liu Fujun, what are you doing?" Liu Ba said as he knocked down Liu Xun's hand.

Liu Xun sneered: "What did you just say?" Can you say that again? ”

Liu Ba understood. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Xun. "It seems that the prince not only has no worries about his life, but also has an unexpected joy. What, you want to use me as a gift? ”

Liu Xun's voice was full of expression. "Don't talk nonsense! Tell me, what you just said, don't think I didn't hear it, my ears are good. ”

Liu Ba smiled. "I said that General Sun is worthy of his background in selling melons, and his accounts are really good."

Liu Xun was overjoyed, grabbed Liu Ba's hand again, and shouted to the guards behind him. "Gentlemen, quickly catch him, this Nanban is disrespectful to the general, quickly arrest him and go to see the general."

Those guards remained motionless and looked at Liu Xun coldly. Liu Xun was anxious and urged again and again. At this time, Chen Duan walked over, knocked down Liu Xun's hand, and arched his hand to Liu Ba. "I'm sorry, he's not normal, talking nonsense, please step down to Haihan."

Liu Ba dusted his sleeves and looked at Chen Duan. "He didn't talk nonsense, I did say, you really don't arrest me? If you don't catch me, I'll go. ”

"Please." Chen Duan stepped aside and smiled gently. "The general himself often claims to be a melon seller, and he will not scold people with his words. If you are not guilty, why should you catch it. The general was busy with affairs and did not have time to deal with these small things. ”

Liu Ba had already taken two steps, and when he heard Chen Duan say this, he retreated again, looking at Chen Duan with a puzzled look in his eyes. "General Sun doesn't sin with words?"

Chen Duan nodded, neither humble nor arrogant. "That's right, he prefers a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, and whoever scolds him, he scolds whomever he wants."

Liu Ba raised his eyebrows. "It's kind of interesting." Arch your hand and walk away.
