Chapter 45: Gentle Township
Huang Shengdao: "General Wu's business in Liaodong is prosperous, and this official also wants to cooperate with the general, so he needs to buy a lot of materials now, and he also asks the general to ensure the quality." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Wu Xiang patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, my lord, the reason why Xiaguan can be famous here is because Xiaguan Tong is not bullied, and what adults need is just asking, Xiaguan only collects capital." ”
Huang Sheng said: "By no means, of course, business dealings must make profits, so that the cooperation will last for a long time." The most important thing for this official to buy is quality, and in terms of price, General Wu can set the price freely. The official needs to buy fine iron, brass, coke, fierce fire oil, canvas, cotton, beef tendon, floral oil, wool ....... ”
Huang Sheng is ready to re-refine and forge the acquired Daming fine iron on the island to obtain steel beyond this era, Daming due to the lack of wind temperature technology leads to the steelmaking can not completely make the molten steel into a liquid state, are produced in a semi-crystalline state, and the quality is of course a grade worse.
If he starts to produce all his own iron ore from the refining of iron ore, it is too troublesome, the place is too big, and the manpower is too much, he doesn't want to be in a hurry, so he first builds a small blast furnace and a more advanced inverted flame furnace in this era to make use of the wind temperature technology to produce steel products for his own use.
Of course, Wu Xiang has business, and soon the two reached an agreement, and the handover in the future will be completed by their respective families.
Because all the building materials on Huangjiashan Island were actually taken from Ningyuan and Shanhaiguan to build city defenses and ready-made materials for wharves, which were continuously sent by sea ships, coupled with the spontaneous hard work of more than 1,000 people on the island, the main structure was completed in one month.
In ancient times, water transportation was the most efficient existence, so the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal was the lifeblood of the Ming Dynasty. Although Huangjiashan Island is isolated in the sea, there are dozens of sea ships of the Ming Dynasty to transport it for free, and it is more convenient and faster to start the project than in the mainland.
All the soldiers and laborers worked hard and worked hard, and the efficiency was indeed doubled. Under Zu Kuan's jaw-dropping gaze, the islands are changing every day, and there is no doubt that China's labor is the best in the world, which has long been proven by history.
In the first fifty taels of silver in this year, you can build a two-in-eight quadrangle courtyard in the pass, although the cost of building on the island doubles, but there is a cheap Ming Dynasty to take advantage of, saving transportation costs, and saving a lot of silver.
Huang Sheng spent 500 stone wheat and 6,000 taels of silver to build a manor covering an area of one hundred and fifty acres, with sixty courtyard houses. It is a structure of three rooms in the front, three rooms in the back, and one room on the left and one on the left.
After rewarding Zu Kuan with thirty taels of silver for his hard work, this kid happily went back, worked on Huangjiashan Island for more than a month and a few days, and was of course happy to get more than half a year's salary.
Of course, the mansion on the island is good, there are 99 large and small houses inside and out, which is also deliberately done by a few old craftsmen to ask for good luck.
The mansion is not yet what it is, because there is no water in the pond reserved by the craftsmen, there are only weeds in the reserved garden, and the pavilions have only time to make the foundation.
On the south side of the mansion is the future barracks, covering an area of 40 acres, with 3 rows of 27 rooms in large span houses, seven of which have no partition walls, used as an auditorium, which can accommodate 500 people for meetings and dinners, and the other houses can accommodate 30 people each, of course, it is a big kang.
The large playground covering an area of 30 acres in the barracks has not yet been leveled, and it is more than a mile to run around the playground, and there will be a lot of special forces training equipment here in the future, and there will be many battlefield simulations.
In the past, the barracks were 30 large houses of one foot and two feet high, which could be used as warehouses and factory workshops in the future. To the south is the wharf, which is built very firmly, and has a fight with Shanhaiguan Water City.
After a month's investigation by Huang Mingli, Huang Dongshan and others, 50 people were selected from the laborers to stay as domestic workers.
Working and living on Huangjiashan Island for a month, all the laborers, craftsmen, and soldiers have inquired about the ins and outs of the master here, and there are many people who have a deep hatred with Jiannu who are almost desperate to earn performance, want to stay as a housekeeper, and strive to follow the master of the family to kill Jiannu for revenge in the future.
The lucky ones who were chosen rejoiced, and those who were not able to stay were sad and disappointed. There is no way, not Huang Sheng is unwilling to accept them all, but he can't do it.
This time, too many families have been added, because Gu San recommended thirty craftsmen with solid skills to Lord Huang Sheng to be family members.
Among the fifty laborers, the good craftsmen and the strong men with a skill, plus the thirty craftsmen recommended by Gu San, there were as many as 300 people, and the rescued Aha plus the fifty young women and the former family members had one hundred and thirty-two people.
There are too many people who need to be fed, and we have to ensure everyone's nutrition and improve everyone's quality of life.
At the end of October, the Huang family had moved to the island one after another, and the renovation and upgrading of the Quang Ninh had been completed, and now everyone began to add power to the other three boats.
This no longer needs Huang Sheng to do it himself, Gu San, Gu Shanhai and Zhang Laifu discussed it, and Zhao Shimin tracked the whole process.
Huang Sheng demanded that the process and gains and losses of the transformation of seagoing ships be put into writing, and that it would become the subject of research in the future, and that everyone should brainstorm again to further improve the future plan for the transformation of seagoing ships.
Zhao Shimin likes to do such things very much, and began to specialize in the transformation of the 'Guangning', and now he has found some ways.
In fact, it's nothing, Gu San selects first-class craftsmen, they all know how to do or write, and they don't know how to speak, Zhao Shimin can write or not, but he is very smart and will get to the bottom of it, record the specialties and unique insights of these craftsmen, and then find other masters to demonstrate.
Because he studied carefully but gathered the strengths of various craftsmen, of course, this is only on paper, in fact, on the best side, there is a theoretical basis.
So this child, who is about to turn fifteen, moves and coordinates among the craftsmen every day, playing the role of technical director and chief dispatcher.
There is already popularity in the mansion, Zhao Rui is arranging to take care of everything, Huang Sheng is suspicious, and he handed over the family's silver and seized jewelry to her to arrange for use.
Since she was born in a family of eunuchs, she is very handy in managing the deep mansion compound, and there are more than sixty women under her command to clean up the inside and out.
When Huang Sheng first came to rest at home on the island, he felt weird, as if he was hiding behind a group of women.
In the best big room in the inner courtyard of the mansion gate is a man, Zhao Rui and Gu Ling'er still live in it, and in the outhouse are eleven women rescued from Jiannu and Qiaozhen and Laifeng, and outside are fifty young women who were bought.
In the evening, Huang Sheng was led to his room by Qiaozhen with a lantern at the end of the discussion in the front yard, and immediately felt a little warm, it turned out that the beauty Zhao Rui had already lit the charcoal basin and waited for the adults to come back to rest.
It was late, and the dozen or so women in the inner courtyard didn't even sleep, waiting for the adults to come back. Huang Sheng sighed in his heart, the evil feudal bureaucratic life is too rotten!
Huang Sheng held a small meeting for them on the spot, so that they didn't need everyone to guard it, and asked Zhao Rui to arrange a duty schedule, and only one or two people could be left in the future.
When he came to the room to prepare for sleep, he found that there was already someone sleeping on his bed, Huang Sheng was confused, thinking that he had run to the wrong place and was about to go out, at this time Zhao Rui followed in: "Master, the slave and Ling'er are sleeping on the bed outside the screen, if you get up at night, we can hear it as long as you scream." ”
Huang Sheng understood, it turned out that Zhao Rui and Ling'er slept in the same room with him, and he felt a little awkward in his heart, but Zhao Rui had already arranged it like this, and it would be done tonight, and it would be adjusted again tomorrow.
It can be seen that the bed that has been sleeping should be Zhao Rui and Gu Ling'er's, maybe the child is still young, and he can't hold it for too long and sleeps first.
Huang Sheng turned the screen in a few steps, and sure enough, he found a bed, he sat on the edge of the bed and was about to take off his clothes to sleep.
Zhao Rui blushed and said, "Master, this is the bed of the slave maid and Ling'er's sister, and the master's bed is in it." As he spoke, he pointed to the big bed that had already slept in.
Huang Sheng was a little dizzy, there were obviously people sleeping there, so he wouldn't have to squeeze a bed with others, right?
At this time, the person on the big bed came out wearing silk clothes, sure enough, it was Gu Ling'er, the little girl grew up again, because the nutrition kept up, her skin was shiny, and there were already two small graves on her chest with silk clothes showing a faint pink.
She said: "Master, the slave has already warmed your bed, you can rest quickly!" ”
Huang Sheng was furious when he heard this, and said to Zhao Rui: "You, I'm afraid of the cold, but Gu Ling'er is not afraid of such a young child?" What kind of bed are you embarrassed to let such a young child warm? ”
He walked a few steps to the bed, pulled the quilt, and quickly wrapped the bell. He also said: "The people who live in the Huang family are relatives, and you are not allowed to bully a child." ”
It was the first time for Zhao Rui to serve Huang Sheng, and she and the other women had been preparing for the moment Huang Sheng moved in from the ship.
The adults have only been in contact with her for dozens of days, so they trust her so much that they throw all their belongings and belongings to her, and this proud beauty in her bones is full of hope for life.
She was sincerely grateful to Huang Sheng, and she served Huang Sheng wholeheartedly from the bottom of her heart, who knew that it was such a result, she was sad for a while, and her tears immediately fell without fighting.
Beauty weeps, like pear blossoms with rain, which makes people infinitely pity.
At this time, several women outside heard the movement, and they all came in and knelt on the ground. Zhao Rui endured the grievances and said: "Master, where is the slave and maid afraid of the cold and unwilling to warm the bed for the master, but the slave and maid are not worthy, uh-huh, uh-huh, ......." ”
The women all knew what was going on, Qiaozhen had been in the Huang family for many days, and she knew Huang Sheng's personality, so she hurriedly said: "Master, only Sister Ling'er here has this blessing to warm the bed for the master, and the slave and maid dare to be delusional!" ”
Gu Ling'er said: "Master, you are wrong to blame Sister Rui'er, she is good to the slaves and maids, and is good to everyone, teaching the slaves and maids to be polite, and teaching the slaves and maids to read and write......." ”
The embarrassment was big, and Huang Sheng was depressed. Thinking about it, it might be that only Gu Ling'er is a virgin here, so these women gave her the glorious mission of warming the bed.
I indiscriminately think that a few adults are bullying children, and for no reason it is a blaming.
Huang Sheng said embarrassedly: "The official is so angry that he is not afraid of the cold, Gu Ling'er is a child, how can he get a cold in and out of the cold quilt in a single clothes, and he is not allowed to warm my bed in the future." ”
Gu Ling'er was unhappy, her big eyes were immediately full of tears, and she said with a crying voice: "Master, the slave maid is cleanly washed, and the hands are not very rough, don't you dislike the slave maid, okay?" ”
Dizzy! Stun! Gentle Township is really a hero's mound! Huang Sheng said to the other women: "It's okay, it's the master himself who misunderstood, you are all fine, go back and rest." ”
He beckoned to Gu Ling'er and said, "You are wrapped in the master's quilt, how does the master sleep." Who said that the master dislikes you? I'll beat him up tomorrow! ”
