At the end of last year, Zhang Han spent all his last money on the purchase and manufacture of machinery, hydraulic machinery plus a large number of skilled labor, coupled with the improvement of precision management and the quality of workers, several workshops in Li Zhuang continue to provide high-quality ironware, and the price is much lower than the fine iron utensils of the rest of the iron shops, so as soon as it appeared in the Jingshi market, it crossed the rest of the trading houses, and a few months down, It also affected the rest of the state capitals, and further to the north-south commercial center of Linqing.

In these places can be established commercial firms, after all, it is a big place, with a relatively mature market and rules, the fees to be paid as usual, and Yusheng's iron can be directly transported to sell, to Linqing, to seize Anhui, Henan, northern Jiangsu and other markets, and even to Huai'an, Yangzhou, Suzhou, to seize the Jiangnan market that also has iron production.

From Zhang Han to Li Guobin, they are very confident, because He Yusheng's factory can continue to expand, what about expanding from the current thousands of workers to 100,000? There are still more than 100,000 miners in Fujian Iron!

There is also an iron field in Zunhua in the north, the iron field in Lingqiu can also be expanded, the production of iron tools more than 10 million catties a year is not a problem at all, with the production of iron tools with industrial added value, the benefits are greater than the raw materials, the profit estimate of the first year of the Apocalypse alone is 50 to 700,000, and within three years, the iron tools that are marketed throughout the north can bring more than one million profits!

This number, descendants sound like they don't feel anything, but just think about the Ming Dynasty has a population of more than 100 million, in addition to more than 20 million stone of grain and some sundries income, the center of silver income is only 200 to 3 million a year, after the levy of Liao and miscellaneous taxes and customs income, to Chongzhen a year income is only about 700 to 8 million, and then the levy is added, only about 10 million a year, Zhang Han's and Yusheng regardless of other income, the iron income alone has more than one million, and there may be more in the future, How can this not be shocking, but also infinitely proud.

Li Guobin used to be a broker, he did a lot of things for He Yusheng a few years ago, and he almost didn't accept other businesses, but he still had some transcendent status, but now he has prided himself on being a person with Yusheng, and this change of course also comes from the increase in Zhang Han's strength.

As a businessman, he still has to go to various brokers and merchants, and the resentment in Li Guobin's heart is not small.

Listening to Li Guobin's words, Wang Faxiang just nodded deeply, and didn't say much, he still has other important things, there is no way to complain as leisurely as Li Guobin, and he also feels that complaining is useless, strength is to be done slowly, if there is no strength left, it is easy to become a complaint.

He just nodded to Li Guobin and got into his carriage, and the vehicle set off quickly, but Li Guobin didn't notice that someone was following Wang Faxiang, he was a layman after all, and the flow of people in front of him was not dense, but there were people passing by constantly, and people like Wang Faxiang were easy to find things that ordinary people couldn't detect at all.

The crowd passing by were officials and people, monks and Taoists, Li Guobin leaned on the wall of the carriage, and suddenly had a feeling that came to life, although everything in front of him seemed to be eternal, but some things have been quietly changing, maybe one day, even this capital, will change with Zhang Han's command?

"I wish there was that day."

If it was before, Li Guobin would definitely feel ridiculous and ridiculous, but at this time, he faintly felt that there was a glimmer of hope, he didn't think about it anymore, just muttered to himself.

……

"It's another hurdle." Chang Dushi sat opposite Chang Ning and began to complain.

After more than 20 days, the northern captives outside Xinping Fort have been driven away, and most of the cattle and sheep, war horses, and horses left behind have been reported by Lai Tongxin as trophies, and of course most of the harvest will be deducted, which is also the meaning of the question.

Even the common people in Xinping Fort and the nearby farmers also made a small fortune, there were a lot of lost cattle, sheep and horses, the government could not collect them for a while, and it was cheaper for these people who picked up foreign falls, and there were also a lot of tents and various sundries left by the Beiyu, the important thing was the leather goods, the Beiyu were also poor to death, only these leather goods and cattle and sheep had some, and it was better to hope to find something valuable or die as soon as possible.

The main barracks also went to the grassland outpost for dozens of miles every day to prevent the northern captives from jumping over the wall and coming back again.

Chang Ning's mother Du rarely comes to Zhang's side, although the two families are close to each other, but Chang Du and Chang's sister-in-law do not get along well, this is also a very normal thing, whether it is a big mansion or a small door, it is rare for the relationship between the aunt and sister-in-law to be very good, except for some mustard in the past, Chang Dushi felt that Chang and Zhang Han kidnapped their daughter, and it was no wonder in his heart, and a resentment could not come out, so naturally he rarely moved.

This time Xinping Fort was besieged, Chang Dushi didn't know the inside story, and she was scared every day, she complained that Chang Jinquan and her husband Chang Jinyou shouldn't have run to this border fort city, as for the Chang family here, relying on the relationship with Yusheng to achieve greater development, she also received more silver in the public, and she didn't mention this layer at this time.

Especially the benefits of Chang Du's greed to marry Zhu Dingfu, and the relationship between the clan, the Chang family still doesn't go sideways? Maybe one day when the current emperor is happy, Zhu Dingfu will suddenly become the county king from lieutenant, and he will suddenly become the county king's mother-in-law, which is much more beautiful than now.

It was difficult for the woman to come over when she was stupid, and when Chang Du's family came here today, she chattered to Chang Ning for a while, and finally blamed Zhang Han for the siege of the Beiyu Fortress, slapped her hand and said: "Look, if it weren't for He Yusheng going out to earn that silver, would Beiyu be able to smell the smell and commit a crime?" Fortunately, Zheng Bingbei is in charge, Ma Zongbing, and Lai Shenjiang are also starry people, and they can keep this side safe, if it is all nonsense like your brother Han, we have all been arrested by the Bei captives! ”

Chang Ning sat upright and looked at the account book, only snorting coldly, too lazy to pay attention to her confused mother.

Since she entered the house, Chang's bent on reading the manager Buddha to pass the boring time, housework and other troublesome things are happy to be handed over to Chang Ning to manage, Zhang Han since buying this mansion gave Chang 50,000 taels at a time, at that time was also tight, but 50,000 is really a huge amount of money, at that time, a small courtyard in Xinping Fort was worth fifty or sixty taels, this silver is enough to buy a hundred, and it is just daily expenses.

At the end of last year, this year's Qingming Festival, and then the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the New Year, Zhang Han had already explained in the inner house, and gave 30,000 yuan for each of the three festivals every year, so that the income of the house in a year was 90,000.

This silver is said to be for household use, Chang Ning feels that it is too much, and she plans to make up 60,000 taels of household silver even this time, and deposit it in the account bureau of He Yusheng in the name of Chang Jinquan.

Zhang Han's various undertakings are now impressive, and Chang Ning also knows some general situations, but the account bureau's fund absorption business has not improved much...... It's no wonder that others, Zhang Han has been suppressed by Han Qi for the past year, and he fought to the death with the Fan family before, and people don't know if He Yusheng can survive it, short-term transfer is just enough, the risk is not big, if you want long-term storage, this risk is not willing to be borne by ordinary people.

The affairs of the inner house, Chang Ning is easy to take care of very refreshing, Zhang Zhai is now more people than before, but there are only more than 50 people in total, including more than a dozen guards, these people are shift guards, or according to military regulations, so that there are only 30 people in the inner house, the maid and the maid plus the housekeeper and servants of the outer house, the little maid, the coachman, the gardener, the cook, etc., the left and right are just some housework things, Chang Ning has helped the family in Yuci's hometown, and many things are simply mastered, It's very easy to understand the affairs of the inner house.

"What do you see?" Chang Du's mouth was dry, and he felt bored, and he didn't feel like he was probing.

"You don't care." How dare Chang Ning tell the woman in front of him about this big injection of silver, although she is her own mother, but her character is really bad.

Chang Du was a little embarrassed, and said angrily: "The accounts of the inner house of a thousand taels of silver on the left and right, this can't be said?" It's really married, and the daughter is someone else's family. ”

Chang Ning couldn't laugh or cry when she said it, and after thinking about it carefully, she was a little excessive, but this account could never be seen by the mother in front of her, and she didn't know how much to do at first glance.

"Sister Ning, ask the kitchen to prepare more wine and fruit dishes, today's military garrison and general soldiers and Lai Tongxin will come over to eat wine."

Chang Ning was a little embarrassed, but Zhang Han stepped in.

Zhang Han saw that Chang Dushi was also there, and he was a little surprised at the moment, of course Zhang Han didn't like this mother-in-law in his heart, but just like Chang Ning, there were some things that he didn't have to choose.

At that moment, Zhang Han arched his hand and said with a smile: "It turns out that my mother-in-law is also here, and I will have two glasses of wine with my mother in the inner house, and there is a good Jinhua wine just sent from Jingshi." ”

Chang Dushi pouted and said: "I don't have much to say to your mother, this is good, even my own daughter has nothing to say to me, what kind of wine do I eat, and I will go home in a while." ”

The mother-in-law's resentment is really not small, but Zhang Han didn't have the heart to say more to this woman, so he only smiled at Chang Ning again: "I heard that my mother-in-law worships the Buddha, and I will ask a golden Buddha to come out and bring it home for my mother-in-law to worship." ”

"Oh, I know it all."

Chang Ning's face is full of tranquility and obedience, and it is also beautiful and intoxicating, Zhang Han likes to talk to her the most, and when he commands him, Chang Ning will no longer ask him to a little, and the feeling of the little couple is also increasing every day, and the night in the depths of the inner house is also extremely gentle to Zhang Han, such a wife is really a rare good companion, Zhang Han is very satisfied in his heart, if not, with his temper, how can he allow Chang Dushi to talk to himself with such an attitude.

Zhang Han finished his order and left, and Chang Ning instructed the lotus to invite a golden Buddha over.

Because of the relationship between Chang's Buddha, there are a lot of golden Buddhas enshrined in the house, and when Chang Du's saw a golden Buddha of more than ten or two weights, the anger in his belly really disappeared a lot.

"You might as well be this uncle." Chang Du asked someone to put away the golden Buddha, with a smile on his face, but his mouth was still counting Chang Ning.
