Although the Yang family has a house in Kunming City, the old man Yang Shiqin does not live in it easily, and Yang Meng, the son possessed by a drug lord, will not easily put himself in danger.

The most important thing is that Yang Meng's fierceness in Kunming City was too strong in the past, in case there is an enemy or something, it is also a trouble, since all the things that should be done on this trip have been done, and Yang Meng has no need to stay in Kunming City.

Kunming is where the Governor's Mansion is located, heavily guarded, nothing special or less is better, don't be caught by the imperial court Lao Tzu's weakness, since you don't plan to come often, some things still have to be purchased.

I don't know what I will need in the future, Yang Meng simply spent thousands of taels of silver, swept most of the shops in Kunming, from the rouge gouache used by women, to some auxiliary materials for the manufacture of conch, Yang Meng asked Ding Baojun, knocking on the shops one by one, when the sun was setting in the west, the group slowly walked out of Kunming City, followed by a team of dozens of carriages, composed of a convoy.

Returning to Wuzhuang and settling his team, Yang Meng went straight to his father Yang Shiqin's residence, the things were almost ready, if Cen Yuying's side was okay, after recovering from his injuries in the past two days, it was time to start preparing for the drug factory.

If you want to keep this matter secret, you still need manpower, and asking your father for money is Yang Meng's purpose.

"The third child, I'm back! Your trip is not a small one, and there has been a message from Governor He, these ordinary people, they know that my family's star Dou has been enlightened by the master. I heard Bao Jun say that you have purchased a lot of strange things, and other things are easy to say, but there is only one thing, and you are not allowed to touch the big smoke. ”

Obviously, Ding Baojun told Yang Meng about his interest in opium grass, otherwise Yang Shiqin would not have specifically pointed out this matter.

"Dad, don't worry! I won't touch that harmful thing after slaughtering, and there is a reason why I touch opium grass, and the guru said that it is better to help him get rid of drugs than to kill smokers, because indiscriminately killing evil will provoke the wrath of heaven. ”

How did he become a clean street tiger in Kunming, Yang Meng also asked Lao Ding on the road, fortunately, he didn't kill any good people before, otherwise he would have to repay his debts.

"I have some methods for this, but the effect is very light, and it is not as toxic as opium, if you want to study it, you can do it, but don't get addicted to smoking."

On the one hand, Yang Shiqin is bound by the canons of the Rational Church, and on the other hand, he has seen countless big smokers, and it is easy to get rid of opium, but it is difficult to get out.

His own son was easily ignited by his master and became addicted to smoking, but it was his mistake.

"Don't worry! My son came this time to ask someone to come, and the good swordsman gave me thirty or fifty people, and some money, and I wanted to make a deal. ”

To develop a new formula, you must come into contact with opium, and it is good to fool Lao Tzu for a while, now Yang Meng lacks everything, what he lacks most is people and money, and only Lao Tzu Yang Shiqin can meet these for free.

"Oh...... Bao Jun has already told me about this, let him get it for you! As for money, my Yang family has nothing else, the most is money, as long as it is not evil, you can withdraw it however you want. ”

Unexpectedly, Lao Ding still took a step ahead of himself and told the matter, it seems that he will have to avoid the Yang family's big steward in the future.

"Xie Lu, Xie Dad, I'll go back and rest."

After getting the benefits, Yang Meng wanted to get out, but Yang Shiqin closed the door and grabbed his son who was about to run away.

"After eating, I will leave, and my father will have something to say to you."

Yang Shiqin must have something to say if he is so solemn, Yang Meng passed it in his heart, and the problem was that he had a conversation with Cen Yuying.

The father and son had a big meal slowly, Yang Meng's appetite was still amazing, and Yang Shiqin, the old man who watched it, nodded intently, it was a blessing to be able to eat and drink!

"Xingdou, that Cen Yuying under your hand is not a good type, he was born in the Guangxi Tusi family, although the family has declined, but it can be regarded as a famous family, there are a lot of things in his stomach, what do you want to do, your father will support it, but such a subordinate, if you can't make an envoy, it's better to get rid of it as soon as possible."

Lao Tzu is really a hero, and killing people is just after-dinner gossip.

"My son knows, if you don't use it, I'll kill him."

Since the third child of his family has a book in his heart, Yang Shiqin is not worried, employing people is a big deal, and he can't help but remind his son that this page has been revealed, and there is nothing to say, the father and son gossiped for a while, and Yang Meng returned to his yard.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Cen Yuying, the topic of conversation after dinner with Lao Tzu, was already waiting outside the door with a somewhat thin old man.

"Third master, this is the old Mr. Jiang Shuxian, a famous man in Yunnan, who the student said."

"Don't be a famous man in Yunnan, the old man is just an old man who is barely able to make a living with his back on dozens of acres of thin fields, I don't know what the third master is asking for? In addition to the geographical victory of Yunnan, there is nothing else in the old stomach. ”

Without waiting for Yang Meng to speak, Jiang Shu opened his mouth first, and pointed out his strengths in one sentence, whether he can use it depends on Yang Sanye's choice.

"Then let's make it clear! What I want is the things in your stomach, but the ugly words are in the front, those things are given to me, others don't want to use them, you can stay, if you can't, let's get together and disperse. ”

Since this old man was straight to the point, Yang Meng didn't hide it, and directly stated his conditions.

"This is okay, the old man is full of children and grandchildren, but his livelihood is difficult, and he came overnight to leave some family foundation for his children and grandchildren, as long as the price given by the third master is appropriate, what do you say, how do you do it."

There is also a reason why Jiang Shu came overnight, he studied and studied half-heartedly, and he only earned dozens of acres of thin fields in his hard life, and it was enough to support himself, but Jiang Shu's ancestors had a lot of children and grandchildren, and they all counted on dozens of acres of thin fields, and this life was extremely poor.

I can still study, but my sons are miserable, they have been tied to dozens of acres of thin fields, they can't eat enough, and they still have the leisure to study, but if they don't study, there is no way out, Jiang Shu doesn't want to see his children and grandchildren, so he is tied to dozens of acres of thin fields.

Cen Yuying went to his house and told the news that Yang Meng was going to hire him, and the old man's heart was also hot, and he followed Cen Yuying to Yang's Wuzhuang overnight.

"Tell me how much you want."

Jiang Shu didn't say anything else, only said that his children and grandchildren were full of people, just to point out to Yang Meng that he was concerned and would not spoil Yang Meng's good deeds.

"Ten taels of silver is the best, but it's really not five taels, and the old decay is also dry."

Ten taels a month, which is already a lot, a county order to raise incorruptible silver is not counted, and it is only thirty-one taels a year. Five taels a month, sixty taels a year, one stone of good rice one hundred and twenty catties, now worth more than two taels of silver, sorghum rice is even cheaper nine cents of silver a stone, with their own monthly salary, children and grandchildren will also have a day to come.

"So be it! Tomorrow choose a piece of land with me, you choose well, first give you a hundred silver dollars to settle down, the monthly salary will be according to what you said ten taels, you know where to go if you don't choose well. ”

I don't know the salary ratio of the Qing Dynasty, it seems that the five hundred silver dollars given to Cen Yuying made this little cub greedy, and I have to ask Uncle Ding tomorrow, don't be wronged.

"Xie Sanye, the old man must do his best, don't dare to say anything else, Yunnan Xingsheng is hidden in his chest, this old man still dares to boast, if the third master really gives the silver tael, Jiang Mou has more than 100 catties, what does it matter if he hands it over to the third master?"

As soon as he heard the settling-in fee of one hundred silver dollars, Jiang Shuxian's eyes were a little cloudy, as if they were emitting green light, and the old man also praised Haikou according to the tone of the green forest.

"Yuying, you take Mr. Jiang to live with you! Let someone make some food for you, and tomorrow we will go to the mountains and forests to rest. ”

Cen Yuying was a little thin, Jiang Shu took the old bones first, he was afraid that they would not be able to bear it tomorrow and delay his time, so Yang Meng also specially instructed him.

After the two left, Yang Meng couldn't sleep, so he called Lao Ding to ask about the consumption level of the Qing Dynasty, don't be wronged in vain.

"Uncle Ding, is it a bit high that I gave the cobbler five taels of silver today? And the five hundred silver dollars I gave Cen Yuying, how many things can I buy? ”

As soon as Ding Baojun heard this, he was smiling, his third master knew that he was diligent and thrifty, and it was a good thing to inquire about silver!

"Third master, five taels of silver is a bit higher for those craftsmen, but it is not outrageous, but the five hundred eagles for Cen Yuying are too much. Now one stone of good rice is two or three taels of silver, which is considered a good year, and one stone of good rice is one hundred and twenty catties, which is enough for two or three people to have a month's ration.

The Eagle Ocean is the best silver dollar, worth nine points of plain silver, although the value is not as good as this Ocean, but the Eagle Ocean is in good condition! Our family's business does not accept the ocean, only the eagle ocean or the silver with good color. ”

As soon as Lao Ding said this, Yang Meng also probably had a number, this time Cen Yuying was cheap, and asked Lao Ding for thirty good hands, and Yang Meng ended the busy day.

The next day, Yang Meng took his team and the fifty good hands given by Lao Ding to gather in Wuzhuang, and his main task today was to select a site for the drug factory.

"Mr. Jiang, I want to find a hidden place near Wuzhuang, preferably one that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, do you think there is such a place near here?"

Say your thoughts, now it's up to Jiang Shu first.

"Third master, just call me Lao Jiang. Yangjia Wuzhuang is located at the foot of the West Mountain in Kunming, backed by the West Mountain, adjacent to Dianchi Lake in the south, it is a good place to go in all directions, the place you are looking for is the best behind Wuzhuang. And in the West Mountain, there is a valley after Taihua Temple, there are dozens of miles in a radius, there is a mountain road in front of Dianchi Lake, there are two hills at the mouth of the valley, a few giant cannons can be set up, the entire valley can be blocked, the end of the valley is the same, there is also a hill that can overlook Dianchi Lake, just ......"

As soon as Jiang Shu talked about the terrain first, Yang Meng was moved, just this place was exactly what he wanted. But this sound just made Yang Meng frown.

"Just what?"

"The iron-making things that are produced in that valley, the blacksmiths in Kunming, there are some coal kilns, mines, and there seem to be a few small copper kilns and lead kilns, but I am afraid that they don't want to leave there."

Jiang Shuxian also worked hard, asked Cen Yuying last night, did a lot of homework, and only then did he have today's eloquent talk, in order to keep this golden job, he also showed his real skills, and even set up a cannon to lock the valley, so the idea of violating the laws of the court was proposed.

"Uncle Ding, do those people have a solution?"

Now Ding Baojun has also become Yang Meng's long-term follower, this third master has just opened his mind, the old man of the Yang family is not at ease, this is another person, and he wants money, and there is nothing to do with squandering, I am afraid that my third master will break the sky.

"Third master, if you want to get your hands on that realm, it's simple! Let's go see if you like it first, as long as it suits your liking, it's yours. ”

As a wealthy businessman in the southwest, if the Yang family does not handle these well, the name of Yang Buddha will be abolished.
