At night, Zhu Daolin reviewed the construction map of Beigu Mountain that had just been sent under the bright candlelight, and wrote down the areas he felt needed to be improved with lead, Xiaoying and Ruyan knitted sweaters against the knitting books brought back by Zhu Daolin on the side, and from time to time they freed up their hands to pour tea for Zhu Daolin.

Because Zhu Daolin had already sent the 3,500 sets of carriage axles he brought back this time to the carriage branch under the ironwork workshop, dozens of large boxes of glass were handed over to Zhao Xunting.

500 boxes of soap, 50 large boxes of daily necessities and 8 rice milling machines were distributed to Ying Changpei and Yan Yihe respectively, 300 boxes of soap and 5,000 sets of teaching materials were handed over to Ziyangguan, 50 tons of H90 brass plates and 320 tons of copper were transported back to the printing workshop warehouse at the rear of the East Courtyard for proper collection, and 200 Tang knives and the remaining teaching materials and valuable jewelry were also collected into Zhu Daolin's back study.

As a result, he no longer has to worry about other goods in the dock warehouse and can concentrate on planning the rest of the urgent business.

After reviewing the design drawings of Gushan Iron City, Zhu Daolin felt that it was necessary to set up his own high-level staff team.

Under the staff team, set up a supervision and planning department, a personnel management department, a financial management department, a security department and a logistics support department responsible for the management of all industries under its command, only in this way can its industrial and commercial empire develop and grow scientifically and efficiently.

Otherwise, it is likely that there will be many omissions and hidden dangers, and even more serious confusion and regression.

But in this way, Zhu Daolin's talents are even more insufficient.

What's even worse is that so far, Zhu Daolin has not met a trustworthy talent with overall planning ability, originally the eunuch uncle Wu Jingxian is the most ideal candidate, but Wu Jingxian has taken over as the eunuch of Nanjing, and I am afraid that he will be busier than himself after he comes back. Where do you have the energy and time to juggle your side?

The more Zhu Daolin thought about it, the more difficult he felt, the more he thought about it, the more pressure he felt, and the joy he finally gave birth to disappeared in an instant, and he found that the journey of thousands of miles had just begun, and he hadn't taken a few steps yet!

"Master, Brother Yang is in a hurry. Wu Gonggong's boat had just docked. The voice of the maid in the house came from outside the door.

Zhu Daolin immediately stood up, instructed Xiaoying to inform the kitchen to cook, and then hurried to the main hall in front of him to ask his junior brother Yang Dading what the situation was.

After learning that there was only one ship with more than 120 officers and soldiers, Zhu Daolin immediately ordered to cook a meal for 130 people as soon as possible, and asked Xiaoying to prepare 130 red envelopes, each with 5 taels of silver, and then rushed to the west wharf with Yang Dading, and took Gonggong Wu, who was in good spirits, and more than 100 escort officers and soldiers back to his courtyard.

Yang Dading and Butler Gu rushed to the front yard with a tray containing 130 big red envelopes. It was distributed to the officers and soldiers who escorted Wu Gonggong back and forth, and immediately provoked bursts of cheerful laughter and grateful thanks.

These 5 taels of silver are nothing to a wealthy family, but for the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who can only get 1-2 taels of silver per month, it is already the sum of their military salaries for two and a half to five months.

In the bathroom at the back of the main hall, Zhu Daolin personally brought hot water, towels and mouthwash to Wu Jingxian, served him after washing, and returned to the tea room to drink tea together.

"What a tea! After getting used to the Tieguanyin you sent, it seems that there is no taste in other teas. Wu Jingxian smiled with satisfaction. I feel that Zhu Daolin in front of me is becoming more and more like his own nephew.

Zhu Daolin poured him another cup and persuaded: "Don't drink too much if it's delicious." Otherwise, I will have no appetite for dinner for a while, when it comes to eating, I remember, the Ziyang Daqu brewed by Ziyang Guan Wine Workshop is very good, you will taste it later, if you think it is delicious, I will send you a few jars when I turn around. ”

Wu Jingxian nodded happily: "I have been gone for more than two months." I didn't expect you to change so much here, especially Shangyuan Wharf, I almost didn't dare to admit it, it can be called a big port, and I will wait for this time to finish. I'll take a day out to take a good look. ”

"Don't you stay here tonight?" Zhu Daolin was a little surprised.

Wu Jingxian shook his head: "If you are full of food and drink, take the boat back, enter the city from Sanshanmen Shuiguan, there are still a lot of things tomorrow, you can't delay, your appointment documents are under the big box, tomorrow afternoon I will personally bring the emperor's honor guard to announce the decree to you." ”

Zhu Daolin asked with a smile: "Is there a brocade-clothed soldier with you?" ”

"There must be, it's the rule." Wu Jingxian picked up the teacup again.

Zhu Daolin thought about it, told the truth about the idea of forming a staff team and the problem of talent shortage encountered, and finally sighed rather discouragedly:

"The most uncomfortable thing is that due to the bad behavior of the Donglin Party, the teachers within a radius of 100 miles do not dare to come to Ziyang Academy and my martial arts hall, so that more than 100 of my brothers and sisters have to put down their medical homework and soak in the academy every day to teach those 4,000 children."

"Fortunately, Ruan Dayue has taken refuge in him, and it is estimated that he can summon a hundred and ten Sven scum who have encountered similar encounters to him within a month, and Ziyang Academy will slowly get on the right track, but ...... I am still so miserable as the head of the Ziyang Martial Arts Pavilion, there is no one who understands the disciplines of Gewu and chemistry and other disciplines, these lessons need me to teach the disciples, tired but not tired, but it takes time! ”

Wu Jing pondered for a moment: "Do you know that in the past five years, how many chamberlains in Fengyang, the central capital, have been assigned to the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum to wait for death because of the involvement of the Wei Gonggong case?" ”

Zhu Daolin was stunned: "Is it a lot?" ”

Wu Jingxian slowly raised three fingers: "In the past five years, there have been more than 3,760 eunuchs and chamberlains who have been assigned to serve hard labor in the Imperial Mausoleum of Zhongdu and repair the river!" ”

"Half of the dead and wounded in the past few years have been lost, and many of these hard-working people are eunuchs of all sizes who are profoundly knowledgeable and have a wide range of knowledge, including the twelve eunuchs such as the celebrant eunuch, the inner palace eunuch, and the imperial horse eunuch, as well as the people of the Qin Tianjian and the War Bureau, whether it is arithmetic or gewu, or even astronomy and geography, they are hundreds of times stronger than those literati in the officialdom who can only read four books and five classics."

"If you dare to take them in, I'll help you quietly get back hundreds of them, but you must not let them live in your yard, otherwise it will be trespassing, rebellion, and something big will happen."

Zhu Daolin was excited when he heard it: "As long as you have the ability, don't say it's a eunuch, even if it's a shemale, I'm welcome!" ”

"If you can't live in my courtyard, then you won't live in it, I'll let the woodware branch make two hundred high and low beds tomorrow, replace all the wooden beds in the barracks on the west side of the martial arts hall, and drive the disciples to the east warehouse to squeeze it temporarily, and the vacated four-row barracks will be slightly remodeled to accommodate hundreds of eunuchs without any problem."

"After settling down, I will demolish the original barracks one by one and build three-story buildings one after another, and it will only take half a year to completely solve the problem."

"Would you really like to? Aren't you afraid that your master or someone else will criticize you? Wu Jingxian stared at Zhu Daolin's eyes and asked.

Zhu Daolin nodded emphatically: "Your old man knows my stinky temper, and I never feel that who is noble and who is inferior in this world, in my heart, people's status is high and low, and there are good and bad characters, but in terms of personality, all people are equal." ”

"Even if it is an enemy I hate to the core, as long as he does not betray the country and does not mutilate his compatriots, I will respect his personality, even if I want to cut off his head, I will have compassion, this is what I think is the way of heaven!"

Wu Jingxian was extremely shocked, staring at Zhu Daolin blankly for a long time, and then sighed faintly: "Okay! I'll do this, but you don't have to be in such a hurry, since you need five months to rebuild the house in the martial arts hall, then wait another five months...... In the next five months, I will take the people I need to recuperate for a while, and I will never let them come to you sick. ”

"It's still my uncle who is thoughtful, so that the renovation on my side can be easier." Zhu Daolin knew that this matter was not urgent, and Wu Jingxian's approach was the safest and most appropriate.

Wu Jingxian nodded: "In addition, I will recommend another person to you, this person is Chinese New Year's Eve six years old today, erudite and talented, rich in learning, and a eunuch like me." ”

"This person served as the emperor of Dongchang at the age of nineteen, was promoted to the warden of the War Bureau at the age of twenty-two, was promoted to the supervisor of Qintian at the age of twenty-six, and was already the master of ceremonies and the young eunuch at the age of twenty-nine, he was not only the rising star that Gonggong Wei admired the most, but also one of the most important eunuchs of the Emperor of the Apocalypse."

"This person is proficient in astronomy and arithmetic, has practiced a strong martial arts, and even does a good job as a carpenter, but he was helplessly affected by the case of Father-in-law Wei and became the first batch of eunuchs to be put on death row."

"Under the joint torture of the three law divisions of the Donglin Party, he didn't say a bad word about Grandpa Wei, and as a result, he was not only beaten to the ground, but also broke the kneecap of his left leg, and his whole leg was maggots, and he was thrown to the Imperial Mausoleum of Fengyang, the central capital, to serve hard labor."

"The escort thought he was going to die, and pushed him into the ditch on the side of the road in the middle of the road, but he didn't deserve to die, and met a You Fang Langzhong of your Taoism, and his life was saved, but his left leg was gone below the knee, miserable! Alas......"

"Where is this man now?" Zhu Daolin asked with concern.

Wu Jingxian said in a low voice: "Two and a half years ago, I got the news and quietly rescued him from the broken temple by the Linqing Canal and placed him in a rented house outside the Jiming Temple in the north of the city. ”

"However, every night he still reads and writes tirelessly under the oil lamp, and it can be seen that he is not dead yet!"

Zhu Daolin stood up: "Tomorrow I will personally invite him back, and he will live in my house!" ”

Wu Jingxian shook his head: "You don't need to ask, someone knows you wherever you go, I'll go talk to him tonight...... Let him come over on his own, alas! Let's eat, I'm hungry, I can't eat all the way back from Yangzhou, and now I finally have an appetite. ”

"What's his name?"

Zhu Daolin had a wonderful feeling in his heart, as if this person was what he was looking for.

Wu Jingxian pondered for a moment: "Don't mention his previous name, his current name is Ye Liangchen, the leaf of the fallen leaves, the good of the loyal and the good of the time." ”
