After Lu Hong sent away the embarrassed Qian family's two second goods, he still placed an order for 5 sets of M1 coal separators and 2 sets of water turbines to Li Blacksmith and Liu Carpenter, and then he was not idle, although this Mengyin coal mine is just a test field for himself, this transaction is done, and he will gain fame, but the important thing is that from this industry, he can fully understand the commercial and social structure of this era, without this understanding, it is obviously just empty talk to do other industries by himself!

According to the history he understands, the coal industry in the late Qing Dynasty can be said to be the only quasi-industry in China, and the Kaiping Coal Mine is a successful example of the government-run industry, which was valued at about 1.5 million pounds in this era, which is a large amount.

The British Empire created a global trade economic chain, so that the only merchant energy in this era - coal value highlighted, although Mengyin is inland, but the advantage is that the waterway directly reaches Haizhou, the country is now less than 300 kilometers of railway, this is the only option, and the price of transportation.

More importantly, Mengyin's open-pit coal mining can have more direct advantages than Kaiping coal mine, the so-called Western coal mining in this era is nothing more than steam engine ventilation, dust removal, gas removal, the real coal mining is only limited to manpower, so, for the coal kilns all over Kaiping, Western coal mining still has a technical advantage, and Mengyin's open-pit mine, M1 coal separator is the real technical advantage!

Since it has these two advantages, if such a coal mine cannot be run and cannot be profitable, it is estimated that the ability of the person who runs it is so low that it can no longer be described by adjectives such as mentally handicapped......

In fact, one of the things that makes Lu Hong quite a headache now is not these low-level machinery and technology and the like, but his almost innocent identity in this era, which can be covered up by overseas study tours, but this also means that his contacts in this era can only be accumulated from scratch, and now, the problem in front of him is to find a helper, which is obviously not easy!

It's just that Lu Hong obviously didn't have much time to ponder this problem, not long after Qian Zhutou and Qian Yiduo left, Qin Tianmin came in again, this expression and appearance are definitely quite inconsistent with his identity as an official master, as soon as he came in, the goods looked around, and said to himself: "Engong, Qian Zhutou and the two of them were blown away by you?" ”

Blown away...... When Lu Hong heard this word, he immediately realized that there was something in the words, just now when he was talking to the two second goods of the Qian family, Qin Tianmin ran out to talk to the two craftsmen who made machines, and this guy's ears were not taken away, and the words were obviously heard......

"Qin Gongzi, to do this industry, the first thing is to have reliable people, I think this money shopkeeper is quite scheming, so some words are not said thoroughly...... However, in the final analysis, this property is also run by the Mengyin Yamen, and I am afraid that they will have to take over in the end! There is no need for Lu Hong to hide it from Qin Tianmin in this matter, but he took the opportunity to explain the rules of cooperation between the two in the future, so he said it clearly.

Qin Tianmin is obviously not stupid, on the contrary, he is still an understanding person, he obviously thought of something, his face turned slightly red, turned to the door to look, beckoned over Lao Qin to explain a few words, then turned around and sat opposite Lu Hong, and said with a very serious expression: "Engong, I won't tell you, I am in big trouble this time, it's just ...... This life-saving grace has not been repaid, and it is really difficult to open my mouth if I ask you for help! ”

Speaking of which, this thing looks sanctimonious, but Lu Hong frowned when he heard it, this guy said this, don't you just think about wanting me to help, and what are you saying that it is difficult to speak, so what are you doing now, you have talked to this extent, it seems that if you don't help him, it will become your own unkindness...... However, in addition to secretly giving the middle finger to this thing in my heart, it is worth considering to help this guy, of course, provided that this guy doesn't cause any big trouble!

"Gongzi Qin, I don't know what you are talking about...... Lu Hong cut to the chase, he has been with this guy for several days, and he hasn't figured it out yet, this guy has the official position of Qingcheng County Order, according to the unspoken rules in his history books, he should devote himself to studying the means of making money in the yamen, instead of running more than two hundred miles back to his hometown Fei County.

Qin Tianmin pondered for a moment, and then confided in everything that had happened, among them, Lu Hong also heard some hidden things, but he also roughly understood the situation, the situation of this Qin County Commander was indeed a little bad.

Qin Tianmin has a reputation for being a student, but this qualification must not be mixed with the official position, however, this guy can see that he really has some ability, after donating a seven-grade county order, he raised a sum of silver to run around the department, and as a result, he spent 8,000 taels of silver and finally turned his alternate county order into a substantive county order, which is really not a small price, in this era, donating a substitute county order is only 50 taels of silver, and donating an alternate county order is only 400 taels of silver, and if it is replaced by a real job, it will be 20 times more, and the premise is to drill the camp......

After taking office, the first term of Shandong Boxing County is a serious second-class poor county, after doing a full term, up and down, the money spent to count down the donation of officials, how much there is still some surplus, he made up a sum of silver, pondering to move a good place, which cost more than 10,000 taels, but also carried a debt of 2,000 taels, this silver is not enough to transfer to a first-class county, he finally took 20% of the debt, this is the move of a Qingcheng county order.

The unspoken rules of buying officials in the Qing Dynasty, sorting out and sorting out can definitely publish a book, and it is also a common practice to buy and sell on credit, and this is a two-percent purchase of official money, which is a serious saying in the officialdom, this is called "big eighty percent", changed to a fashionable word in later generations, that is, installment payment, if there is more down payment, you will take office in advance, and if you have less down payment, you have to line up later, this Qin Tianmin ran this way.

Who knew that this year was unfavorable, the career was not smooth, after taking office, even the locust plague and civil unrest, not only the donations sent by the government could not be gathered, but even the thousands of taels of debts were rolling, and now they have risen to more than 5,000 yuan, Qin Tianmin dodged and dodged without directly saying the creditor of these thousands of taels of silver, it is obvious that it is the person behind the scenes who wants his life.

Ma Heizi said before that the people on the other side wanted to take him alive, Qin Tianmin actually expected what people wanted to do, it was nothing more than two things, the silver and the position of the county order of this real position, the problem is that he is now at the end of his rope, and it is difficult to raise this silver even if he returns to Fei County...... The scene where the bandit Ma Heizi robbed and killed him on the official road is this cause and effect, and the other party obviously wants to see that he will naturally vacate the real vacancy after resigning, which is another big deal!

After Lu Hong listened, his mouth opened three times, and he still swallowed the words, this Qin Tianmin's trouble, to put it bluntly, it was self-inflicted, you have tens of thousands of taels of silver and you don't have a good time, you can't run away from the official blindly, these ten thousand taels of silver really can't run a good position, I have seen it in the history books in my later life, the fat shortage and the like, such as Shanghai Daotai, get a real job and get 30 taels of silver, and the alternate also has to get 10,000 taels.

However, this officialdom is really dark, for the sake of this position, it is good to invite a black knife, he almost wanted to say to this Qin Tianmin, "Your circle is really messy!" ”

After pondering it horizontally and vertically, Lu Hong always felt that there seemed to be something he hadn't figured out, but he might not be able to help with this matter, and it was not as fast as picking up the industry in the morning, and if he wanted to generate benefits, he had to spend time to operate.

Obviously, Qin Tianmin definitely doesn't have this enough time, the current situation is already very clear, this guy is bound to go bankrupt, and the things he provoked by himself can only end up by himself, and he can help if he thinks about it, it is not now, but in the future, but now is a good opportunity to finalize the alliance of interests......

A bankrupt little corrupt official, he didn't expect that he would be the first to win over in this era, which made Lu Hong a little helpless...... Who makes himself really poor in this era, it's not easy to find a helper!

Thinking of this, Lu Hong looked at this unlucky guy very seriously, "Qin Gongzi, this business industry, you have to invest first and then say it in time before you can make a profit!" If you want to do this, I can help you, but ......"

Having said this, Qin Tianmin obviously understood the meaning of Lu Hong's words, he nodded a little blankly, turned his head, and thought about it for a while, he is not a chick of officialdom, from the way of buying officials, it is destined to be a big gamble to drill camps and bet everywhere, the year is good, if you can get silver, then you can climb higher, and the unlucky donor of the official is like a carp crossing the river in the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty, and there will be no waves if you bury it.

"Engong, can you help me plan an industry, I will go back to Fei County to raise money, and then go to Jinan Mansion to operate, maybe I can get through this experience," Qin Tianmin nervously said his calculations, although he also knew that he was at the end of his rope, but Lu Hong's sudden exposure of the industry in front of him made him feel like grasping a life-saving straw, and it seemed that he still wanted to give it a go.

Lu Hong once again despised this goods, and he didn't hit the south wall and didn't look back, isn't it a portrayal of this goods, everyone has torn their faces and black hands, and this guy is still thinking about using his means to settle this matter, but from this point of view, it can be seen that this Qin Tianmin has some ability, at least the kind of character who can go out and dare to act......

Now the most important thing is to dispel this unrealistic idea, his tone changed, and he said very calmly: "Qin Gongzi, you have come to the end of this road, haven't you woken up yet?" Listen to your tone, the other party's means are not only this black man, according to me, the other party has a black hand, and things will not be so simple...... There must be other means in the future!"

Qin Tianmin is also in the game, always thinking about breaking the game, and Lu Hong's words reminded him that the person he offended was in a high position, and he wanted to let himself slip down, it was not just Ma Heizi's method, the soft knife that was framed to kill people was sometimes more desperate than the real knife, he is well versed in the life-and-death battle in the officialdom, once it comes to this situation, he really has no chance of winning!

Just when he was in a daze, he heard Lu Hong, who was sitting opposite him, calmly prescribe an irresistible condition to him, "Gongzi Qin, your Qingcheng County Decree will definitely not be able to do it, hurry up and settle this matter...... If you want, then be my partner, and within two years, I promise to take enough profits from the industry for you to donate back to office! ”
