Chapter Ninety-Eight Begins to Build the Levee
The main thing that Shopkeeper Zhang likes Gao Hongsheng is that the food he provides is low in price and good quality, not to mention those Jing quality food. レ Idea Guest レ
Although Gao Hongsheng later disliked the trouble and only provided unprocessed raw grain, the quality and price were much lower than those on the market, and the quantity was very large.
Gao Hongsheng's purpose of befriending the shopkeeper Zhang is also very simple, that is, he is familiar with him.
You must know that these big grain businessmen are related to those big landlords, and those landlords may not even look at you Gao Hongsheng, but for these big grain merchants, people can pay more attention to them, and they must have a good relationship.
If the shopkeeper Liu is a capable person in the urban transaction, then the shopkeeper is a courtesan in the rural area.
Those local landlords, large and small, have a relationship with the shopkeeper, and they all have a deep relationship of interest.
If you want to pour food to make money, the official face, the local area needs to be through the sky, otherwise you dare to play?
Food has been a big problem since ancient times, not only the imperial court attaches great importance to it, but also local officials, the grain price is unstable, the local injustice does not understand the truth, but the grain price to stabilize these grain merchants how to make money?
Isn't it all about the price of grain to cut meat with a soft knife?
Didn't those big landlords become big landlords little by little by hoarding grain in disaster years, raising grain prices, and selling them at low prices in good years, forcing them to bankrupt, so that they could buy their fields at a low price?
The magistrates are directly the protective umbrella of these big landlords, otherwise, according to the ability of the government, how can there be a large-scale famine?
Among them, those grain merchants are attached to those big landlords, and together with those big landlords, they absorb the blood and sweat of the vast number of peasants, and even more so, they form alliances with those big landlords and unite to oppress the vast number of peasants.
Gao Hongsheng doesn't even know this? But if you want to mix in this troubled world, you have to make friends with three religions and nine streams.
Isn't the purpose of making friends with big grain merchants just for the sake of the countryside?
Each big landlord is the local emperor, how do you say to deal with them.
But with the shopkeeper of Jinan, the big grain businessman in Jinan, it is different, there is really something to do, and people are better than you running and breaking your legs.
But friendship comes out, you are like Feng Laosi was arrested, if you have a good relationship with Shopkeeper Zhang, maybe it will be fine if people say hello, do you use Gao Hongsheng to run a trip?
But the question is, weren't the two people dealing with each other at that time? Inside and out, I just made a transaction, how do you let Gao Hongsheng speak?
Together with the last large amount of raw grain, this is only two transactions, and now I have to go abroad again, can I not come to say hello and make arrangements?
Entering the store, the shopkeeper Zhang greeted him, and the two did not have such an iron relationship with the shopkeeper Liu, so they chatted briefly, Gao Hongsheng sold thousands of tons of raw grain, and set the delivery time Gao Hongsheng said goodbye and ran to the warehouse.
greeted the soldiers guarding the city gate with a smile, and even smashed a specially wrapped fifty pieces of eagle ocean into Han Guangyu's arms, smashing Han Guang's cheeks into his mouth, but that smiling face was about to bloom.
shouted at Gao Hongsheng, who was almost gone: "Xie Gao's shopkeeper's reward." "Then a group of soldiers gathered around and divided the money.
As a result, no one even cared about the city gate, and the little people who entered and exited the city gate were so happy that they passed through the city gate one by one, and the city gate officials did not collect money today.
Along the wide, newly built gravel road leading to the storehouse, the road is crowded with horse-drawn wagons and rack carts for carrying goods.
That's right, it's a rack car, after returning to Jinan Mansion, Gao Hongsheng used the rack car to set up a car dealership, and rented the rack car to those who fled the famine, so that they could make some money to support themselves.
Although the flood in Cheng County has receded and the mouth has been blocked, the crops in the field have been completely destroyed.
The county magistrate Zheng Bo and the county Cheng Qin Yaozu made a big windfall.
Speaking of which, it is because of Gao Hongsheng, a good person, that after Huangyashan defeated the official army, Gao Hongsheng who could be sold was sold cheaply.
In the end, isn't there a large amount of grain and grass left? Gao Hongsheng didn't sell it, so he directly sold the news to these two people.
Being an official is beneficial, and someone will run errands as soon as you give an order.
Gao Hongsheng has to be sneaky about everything, the two of them are good, and they organized people to transport all the grain and grass back with great fanfare, and carried the news that the bandits on Huangya Mountain were dead to Fucheng.
When the old men in the city heard the news and came to check, they were stunned by the strange six-star array on the top of the mountain.
There are missionaries in there, they know!
The six-star mangjin is a Western thing, but there is no such thing in China, so this skin is even more unclear.
started a lawsuit back and forth, how could he have the effort to take care of the remaining grain and grass, and the result was cheaper for these two people.
Because of the news that the Yellow River was about to break, these two people sold a small half of the grain, but that's a lot! It was enough for tens of thousands of taels of silver, and the two of them divided it privately.
The remaining half of the grain and grass, the two of them will wait to see the situation, if the Yellow River is not here in the process, then continue to sell.
If you really break up with what Gao Hongsheng said, then why do you have to give some blood to rescue and relieve the disaster, otherwise if the victims make a fuss, they will not be able to save their lives, this is also the idea given by Gao Hongsheng.
It also deserves that these two people should have some blood to avoid disasters after they get rich, although the kind-hearted Gao Hongsheng reminded him to beware of instability, and the Yellow River is the key to it.
These two people also made some efforts to repair, but the old accounts could be paid off, and the result was still broken.
Fortunately, these two people still have a little conscience, and quietly released the rumors, so that everyone was prepared, and in order to accumulate some yin virtue for themselves, after the break, in the face of the flood victims, a lot of porridge sheds were built for relief, so that few people did not die in the year of the disaster, and won a voice of praise.
But relief alone is useless! No amount of food is enough, and what is eaten dry is not.
It just so happened that the construction of the warehouse area here in Jinan Prefecture required a lot of labor, and after saying hello to these two people, the victims were put to work.
After finishing the warehouse area, the next thing is to repair the road, but there are also some people who have no work to do, Gao Hongsheng just took this opportunity to set up a car dealership, sent his subordinates to take care of it, and used the rack car to let them have something to eat.
But in this way, there are still a lot of victims, and Gao Hongsheng used these victims to start the construction of gravel roads.
The gravel road from Jinan Mansion to the warehouse area is a model project, and now Gao Hongsheng feels good when he runs to it.
The width is about eight meters, the middle is high and the two sides are low, first use the three-way soil to pad up the roadbed, and then use four people to pull the big rope to smash the rammed stone, the flute is tamped, and then a layer of sand and gravel is laid, and then tamped.
Although it is not as smooth as cement and asphalt pavement, it is already a pretty good road for this era.
At the very least, no matter how heavy the rain is, the road will not turn into big potholes and small potholes.
Now that the road from Fucheng to the warehouse area has been repaired, Gao Hongsheng asked them to start repairing the road from Jinan Prefecture to Chengcheng County.
Of course, building bridges and paving roads was something that no one cared about in ancient times, as long as you said that you built bridges and paved roads, no one dared to care about you.
Even if it is the farmland of the occupier or something, it will be over if you give some compensation, but there is no such thing as modern scoundrels using the land to extort money.
If it weren't for Gao Hongsheng's requirements for the road being too high, yes, it would be too high, this guy drew a line on the map along the Yellow River more than a mile away from the river, and that was the highway.
It directly required that the height of the highway should be more than two meters higher than the Yellow River embankment at that time. This is a highway, and it is clearly the Yellow River embankment, yes. This is the Yellow River embankment designed by Gao Hongsheng.
It can be used as a highway for decades, and it can be used as an embankment to prevent flooding.
But this time, the amount of work will come up, or it will be completed long ago.
But with such a large amount of work, he only paid a little money.
The two people from Cheng County directly allocated a lot of disaster relief food, and Gao Hongsheng took out some tools and the salaries of management personnel, as well as a little reward, and solved this matter.
In the year of the catastrophe, it is enough to eat and drink without starvation, and it is even more important to give you some projects to do and go back with a little money, which is already a great gift, who dares to say anything else.
In fact, Gao Hongsheng also has a bit of a sense of accumulation, after all, he has made a fortune in this world, so why should he repay it, otherwise it will be a bit of a feeling of not being able to sleep at night.
If you can help, you can help, and it doesn't take much money, and it's okay to settle down, and it can help a lot of people, right?
Less than 10,000 taels of silver, Gao Hongsheng really didn't care too much.
But what I didn't expect was that this road became longer and longer, and the higher it was built, the more and more money was spent, and in the end, he was really asked to build a Yellow River embankment.
