At that time, people did not promote the waterwheel is this reason, if the waterwheel in the hands of the person who can do it, it may not cost much, a few hundred silver will be made, in the hands of the raw hand will cost ten times the money to make, and it will be more and more money-saving in the future, but Zhang Han's land is these, it is indeed a little worthless and wasteful.

Zhang Han said with a smile: "Uncle just keep doing it, don't worry about other things." ”

He also figured out the temper of the two uncles, Chang Jinquan's ability to do business is relatively large, his temper is also big, and his desire for profit is also heavy, Chang Jinyou is a standard engineering man, he is happy to be able to do things for him, and it is best not to let him care about anything else except technical things.

Sure enough, Chang Jin said happily: "It's good that Brother Han said so, sure enough, everything goes well with you, and the more I look at you, the happier I become." ”

Zhang Han smiled silently.

……

The evening breeze blew slowly, the sky was gradually covered with bright stars, the bright moonlight also rose, and a few ghost fires floated in the fields not far away...... Zhang Han shook the pu fan and talked to Yang Qiu and the others in the courtyard.

"Wang Faxiang is very effective, and when he wrote to him, he said that I praised him."

Zhang Han shook his fan, it was very hot, and it was better than nothing to use this thing.

The information newly collected by Wang Faxiang has just been delivered, and there are copies of Di in it, and there are Tang newspapers from Xuanda in Liaodong and Jizhen Town, and they are all very detailed.

What surprised Zhang Han was that this person had also bribed a lot of people from the court officials' families, and he heard more gossip than the official ones, which was actually more accurate.

The trend in the DPRK and China is that all parties now support Xiong Tingbi, and it is estimated that Lao Xiong is not far from the date of taking office. Xiong Tingbi himself is a member of the Chu Party, and his relationship with Fang Congzhe is also very close, the most important thing is that he has a good personal relationship with the people of the Donglin Party, for example, the relationship with Yang Lian is very close, and the two have a very close personal relationship.

However, the Donglin Party also has its own ideas, and they want to recommend Yuan Yingtai.

Yuan Yingtai is a backbone member of the Donglin Party, from the local work for decades before he came to the central government, is a very practical official, and now is a squire of the military department, the Donglin Party feels that the credit for eliminating Jiannu can be snatched by Yuan Yingtai, so that the least ministry can be expected in the future.

At the same time, the Donglin Party is still supporting Wang Huazhen, and it is expected that a governor will be set up in Guangning, and Wang Huazhen will serve in this position, so that Guangning will be the stamina of Liaoyang and Shenyang.

When Zhang Han saw this information, his face was very complicated.

His mind seemed to fly back to the white mountains and black waters, he knew that these officials were all fools, they didn't understand anything about Eastern affairs, they were talking nonsense, taking it for granted one by one, and they were still immersed in the dream of the emperor's kingdom.

Another news is that Nurhachi has raised troops to march to Kaiyuan and Tieling, and the specific battle situation is not yet known, and the Jingshi side has just received the news.

"A mess ......" Zhang Han felt very confused after reading these things.

The current Ming Dynasty is like a person without a helm, everything is messy, the ministers are divided into parties, either their own party or the enemy, and only a small amount of compromise is only for the interests of the party and themselves, not for the sake of national politics. Fang Congzhe, the first assistant, is powerless and allows others to mess around, and the local civil and military forces are also discordant, attacking each other, and the military generals are also divided into factions, and the forces of the sect are intertwined, all of which are planned for their own interests.

"Let's take care of ourselves first......"

Zhang Han put away his spirit and looked at the people in front of him.

He and Li Shenming and Sun Jingting have all talked in secret separately, and the big policy has been decided.

In a few steps, smuggling in Li Shenming's place is the top priority, of course he agrees with Zhang Han's entry into the army as a patrol inspector, but for the sake of guarding the official road and protecting the trade route, Zhang Han can naturally build his own private armed forces when he is an inspector, it is easier to protect the caravan, and it is easy to defeat the opponents who are not satisfied with Yusheng.

Naturalization, becoming an official, and establishing a private army called archers are major events discussed with Li Shenming in the near future.

What was discussed with Sun Jingting was to attract miners in batches to serve as archers or dart masters, enrich the ranks here, expand the scope of the farm, buy a large amount of land, and attract a large number of displaced people to the farm to work as long-term or short-term laborers, or tenant farmers.

Then it was cast into various ironware and sold, which was more popular than pig iron.

Calling Yang Qiu over was to reorganize the organizational structure of his subordinates, Zhang Han felt that the current methods and methods were still too primitive and too gentle, and he had to gain more time to expand his strength in the future, and there was no time to wait.

"I picked fifty people, all of whom were ruthless and good." Yang Qiu said slowly, Liang Xing was by his side, and he was not very interested in Yang Qiu's words, Zhang Han had already asked Liang Xing and Yang Qiu and others to enter the army, Liang Xing was one of the commanders of the scheduled inspection archers, and the responsibility was very heavy, so he was not interested in asking Yang Qiu about the matter over there.

"Who do you want to take care of these dozens of people?" Zhang Han asked Yang Qiu, and then said: "The people who are selected are not necessarily stayed, and they have to go through special training. ”

Yang Qiu replied very dryly: "My subordinates recommend using Wang Yong." ”

Liang Xing raised his eyes and looked at Yang Qiu.

Wang Yong is quite scheming, he was brought out by Liang Xing, and the relationship with Liang Xing is closer, the newly established organization is still under the jurisdiction of Yang Qiu on the surface, but in fact, it is directly managed by Zhang Han, which is equivalent to a new department that has been separated, Yang Qiu did not send his own people, and Wang Yong was mentioned, which was unexpected by Liang Xing.

"Good." Zhang Han said: "Yang Qiu, the person you lead will not be called the dart master in the future, called the Internal Security Division, you are the supervisor, the internal is divided into general affairs, finance, intelligence, operations, a number of bureaus, according to the regional demarcation of the sub-bureau, set up a hundred generals, like Wang Faxiang, in the future will be the general manager of the Beijing Division." ”

After Zhang Han came back, he felt that there are too many branches now, there are more than 100 people in the branch shopkeeper and deputy shopkeeper alone, each branch is responsible to Zhou Fengji and others, and it is beyond their ability to manage such a large stall, Zhang Han intends to divide the branch into more than a dozen regions according to the region, and the branch shopkeeper is responsible for the regional shopkeeper, and the regional shopkeeper is responsible for the head office shopkeeper, and can even put the powerful shopkeeper as the deputy cabinet of the head office, corresponding to a certain region, so that the layered structure, in the current environment, can control everything most effectively.

Zhang Han then said: "The new staff brought by Wang Yong is called the Supervision Department, and I personally manage it, which is divided into two bureaus: the special service group and the field service. After the people have been selected, they will come directly here, and live in the private houses first, and I have already asked someone to survey the address, and prepare to build a large school field and camp, which will also be the station of the archers of the inspection department in the future. ”

Yang Qiu and Liang Xing agreed and retreated, and then Li Dongxue walked in, holding the hot pattern in his hand and handing it to Zhang Han to see.

"The land is about 300 acres, and the school field is more than 50 acres large, and there are barracks, shooting ranges, fire gun fields, armor fields, and carriage yards in other places, and they also have their own places, as well as places for raising some cattle, sheep, pigs, and chickens, and water is brought from the Yanghe River, so that it is very convenient to use water in any place."

Li Dongxue is a very old and capable guy, originally Zhang Han wanted to keep him in Baicheng, but then something went wrong, and there was no semicolon for the time being, so Li Dongxue was placed next to Zhang Han to do chores, and he did a good job.

Mo Zongtong was sent to Qingcheng, where he presided over the affairs of the semicolon, and he may be the treasurer of any region in the future.

Zhang Han said: "Is the work and strength sufficient? ”

At this time, Li Xiangfu came over and said: "It's enough, the proprietor gives the man a penny of silver a day, in charge of three meals, the woman and the child come to do chores, and does not give money to take care of the food, the men, women and the weak in the nearby villages are very excited, I have found dozens of bricklayers and carpenters, and the workers are afraid that there are more than 1,000 people, this little work, I am afraid that it will not be finished in a month." ”

"Very good, Lao Li has done a very good job." Zhang Han praised and encouraged: "Everyone is dedicated to doing their part well, and our He Yusheng and Zhuangzi will get better and better." ”

……

"Shopkeeper Chen, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this account."

Tian Jitang flipped through the daily account of the day, and his brows were furrowed deeply.

"What's wrong?" The one who was questioned was the shopkeeper surnamed Chen, and also the shopkeeper of the branch of Yanghecheng and Yusheng, a distant relative of Zhou Fengji, and an old man who had been with Yusheng for many years, doing things very ordinarily, and he was also promoted according to his qualifications, he looked at Tian Jitang and said: "I will explain this matter directly to Lao Li's tent, Lao Tian, it seems that it has nothing to do with you, right?" ”

Tian Jitang obviously felt that this account was wrong, the goods sold and the money received looked correct, but the numbers were obviously wrong, and the profits were too low, but as long as the number on the book was right, he had no way to say anything.

Waiting for Tian Jitang to go out, Chen Huaili snorted and got up to go out.

Chen Huaili got on a cart after going out, he used to be just a guy, he walked everywhere, and then bought a donkey after becoming a shopkeeper, at that time, most of the people with a little status went out to ride donkeys, and there were also horseback riders, and there were a lot of horses in the border counties, and many people would also ride.

Later, Chen Huaili and others went online to make money together, and the family property has exceeded 1,000 taels in the past half a year, which was really unimaginable to him in the past.

If it is a normal monthly salary, Chen Huaili's monthly salary is fifteen taels a month, this has been mentioned several times, and there is a bonus at the end of each year, which is not low, but people's desires are difficult to fill, and they want more with silver, Chen Huaili has married a three-room concubine, and recently plans to buy land, Yanghe City is much bigger than Xinpingbao, and he also plans to settle down here and buy a big house.

The place where Chen Huaili went was a grain store, which also sold some groceries, even ironware, it was getting late, many guys were packing up and preparing to close the store, Chen Huaili went directly into the inner room.

"Chang, your Tian Jitang is talking and talking." After Chen Huaili sat down, he said angrily: "What's wrong with the account, I annoyed him to death." ”

Chang Chang is called Chang Jinbao, he is Chang Jinquan's brother, after listening to Chen Huaili's words, he smiled and said: "Tian Jitang is that temper, our second brother also sees him annoyed and panicked, or he will come to Yang and here, and don't ask him to be in our store, recommend you and Yusheng to do things." ”
