Chapter 258: Heaven's **
"Let's go back," Song Ping said calmly to his wife. He looked at the south with his eyes, the south is not far from the Bianshui, the Bianshui outside the Donghua Gate is not wide, the widest point is only about 100 meters, and the narrow place is less than 40 meters. Where is paradise......
The people in the yamen didn't know the height of the sky, and when they saw that Song Jiu took the initiative to stop and not sign when he signed the order to more than 2 million yuan, they were in a hurry.
Song Jiu didn't explain much, and said a word, scarcity is expensive, you think about the output of the workshop.
One of the transactions is wine, and the other is Liuli, when Liuli handed over the profit in Song Jiu, the highest income was that October, and he kept working overtime, and the profit was only 10,000 yuan, and the actual total value was less than 20,000 yuan. Later, it was expanded. Of course, more than 2 million orders refer to the transaction price in Guangzhou, not the price of the workshop, which should be discounted in half. But it's also a staggering number. Now the monthly output of the glaze workshop is only 30,000 yuan, or overtime day and night, the people are naturally welcome, overtime is a double salary, but how much can be added? The output value of 40,000 yuan is not bad.
The workshop can only be relocated and the scale of the workshop will be expanded. Anyway, these big cannibals will not leave until after the middle of winter, and some don't want to stay in the South China Sea for too long, or even leave until the moon, so why be in such a hurry if they can catch the southeast wind and reach the South China Sea Peninsula to rest.
The second is wine, the wine is also limited, if you want to play a brand, play a reputation, the wine can not be less than five steamed brews, in order to have a rich and mellow taste, then from the South China Sea countries and Tianzhu, and even the distant European continent and the African continent, there will be more customers.
Song Jiu also said one thing, that is, the population of Tianzhu, because it is tropical. There are several great rivers, and the number of people here has always been unimaginable. Maybe there are more than 10 million households at this time, just because the land is mostly fragmented. He also does not like to record history books, so no one knows about his civilization. But that doesn't mean they don't have spices, no gems, no gold.
Therefore, the quality requirements must not be compromised.
Then this amount is not much, and it is not just about selling wine, from the silk handkerchiefs that wrap wine bottles to wine bottles, and then to wine boxes, this is a series of huge industries. It must also be expanded.
After spring, the workshop is shifting. Construction is still being carried out in the residential areas further south, and the 120 extravagant buildings on the river island have begun to break ground again. And the terrible women have also begun to have jobs, and the wages are not low.
Today's people are not afraid of being tired, they are afraid of being tired and not gaining.
However, even across the river, those in the south are afraid of their masters. Don't dare to take in any domestic helpers from Hebei.
After they were tricked, they signed a long contract, and if they didn't do well, they immediately whipped them. It's a river, and it's connected by a bridge. To them, it is like a daunting moat.
But Song Ping wants to escape, not because he can't live, but also because his wife is there. Song Ping's wife is beautiful. The steward coveted it many times, and he couldn't stay any longer, even if he fled back to his hometown to be a floating guest and a tenant.
Song Ping is preparing to escape secretly.
Apple was busy on the other side of the river. Even for convenience, I slept in the inn. But none of the yamen dared to ask her for money.
Song Jiu's various practices. Including women can work, women can compete. The status of the woman was raised, and the reputation of the concubine was raised. mentioned Yuping, Zhao Kuangyin said solemnly, Song Jiu accepted a good concubine.
Song Jiu's three letters from home made the Song family's chickens fly and dogs jump.
With so much cargo, there was enough wine, and only two-thirds of the wine from the liquor workshop was transferred, but it had to be packaged. There is also a huge amount of glass. All the goods must be completed at the end of September, and it will be too late to take advantage of the northwest wind, sail to Hangzhou, and then go south from Hangzhou to barely grab time.
But not all goods have to be pressed by that time. In the middle of the way, it is necessary to continuously send goods from the capital to the Yangtze River, from the Yangtze River to Tanzhou, from Tanzhou to Lingqu, Lingqu to the Li River, and then to Guangzhou.
Inland rivers are also risky, and many of them are dangerous in such a long canal process, but people don't care about so much, and only by looking at the goods can they be counted. Therefore, it is necessary to verify the quantity. It must also be snatched out at the end of September.
There are more than a dozen yamen in front of them, and there is not much hatred, and the workshops behind are all in chaos.
This is more than a million dollars of cargo, how many ships do you have to load? Like the cement workshop, demolished and built, built and demolished, the steel used is not ordinary steel, most of it is specially made after repeated tempering, the cost of a pound is more than 100 yuan, covering an area of more than 100 acres of workshops, all demolished and built once, less than 20,000 yuan. Moreover, it is more than a million yuan.
There is also something else, Song Jiu's second letter is to ask her to recruit dozens of more students, including several personal students, most of them are studying glaze and two kinds of acid with Song Jiu, let them bring the two kinds of acid techniques, and go south with them to Guangzhou. I don't know what my husband is going to do. Then he asked her to bring 200,000 taels of fine silk and send people to transport them to the south. It can't be wine and glass, the people in the yamen are unbalanced, and Song Jiu also had a plan at that time. No matter what he does in the south, it is what Hezhou Qigu is doing, not what he Song Jiu is doing, so these wines and Liuli will be transferred to the south together in the name of Hezhou, and Yuping can't be adjusted again this time, and the productivity can't keep up.
You can't transfer gold and silver, gold and silver in the south are cheaper, it's not worth it, it's too much of a loss. It is not possible to adjust the copper coins, and the circulation of the country's copper coins is insufficient, how to adjust them. Ordinary cloth can't be adjusted, only fine silk can be adjusted, and continue to be sold to fans. Then you can save the freight and loss, and you can also add a small amount of value.
However, where did the Song family get the money, so they had to borrow, they had to borrow 150,000 yuan, and then repay some interest when they paid dividends. This one is relatively easy to borrow, and others can't afford to pay it back, but the Song family can definitely afford it. The Song family actually borrowed money?
That's what makes people feel sensational.
Therefore, even Zhao Kuangyin was surprised, Pan Li'er had not left at that time, and was about to leave and let Empress Song summon her to the palace.
What Pan Li'er didn't know was that because of that accidental oil rubbing, Queen Song said a lot of good things about Song Jiu in the palace. Then Pan Li'er left the capital, and Yuping told her that she was a concubine in name, but in fact she was the big boss of the family, Pan Li'er's sister. But she can't go south, Hezhou can't do without her, so she can only let Pan Li'er go. Pan Li'er's two sisters-in-law were speechless. I just thought in my heart, if the husband also accepted such a concubine. Will I have a conflict with them?
A wife and a concubine are sorry to say goodbye, they are a beautiful scenery on the bank of the Bianshui River. It quickly spread as a good story in the capital.
Apple began to toil again.
Song Jiu let her learn to let go, where can she let go.
And Zhu Yanei really wanted to see how a house with tens of thousands of yuan was sold. It seems very likely that the rents of shops have more than tripled last year, reaching more than 120,000 yuan a year. Among them, there are a few large ones with good locations, which have risen to more than 2,000. And it's less than half the size of future constructions, which means it's sold for just 10 years' rent. And the busiest time is when the autumn tax comes up, and the summer tax is also heavy, but it is far less than the autumn tax, and it is best to arrange most of the construction in the spring and summer. Otherwise, after the autumn, the household will carry the autumn tax for the imperial court, and there will be a shortage of labor. Therefore, they were not in a hurry to share dividends, and took out the money to build Hezhou.
The consequence of this expansion, if it is completed, will be crammed with almost all the laborers, except for those who have been reduced to servants. Even the wives of the servants have jobs to do together, and the pay is not cheap.
So Song Ping looked south. Including many servants, it is believed that where is heaven.
The door of heaven is so close, yet the door is permanently closed to them.
Coupled with the fact that the steward coveted his wife's appearance, Song Ping decided to run away. Night is coming. There was also a dim light coming from the other side of the river. There is a salary, but it is too low, and it is not easy to live in the capital. You have to buy everything, so there is no money left in this thatched hut.
The husband and wife only made two small packets. also cleaned up the family property, and Song Ping hugged his son Song Sijiu. The same surname is Song, he misses it very much, and now whether he misses it or not, it is a thing of the past. He whispered, "Lady, are you ready?" ”
His beautiful wife nodded.
The two fled in a northeasterly direction. It's not easy to escape, needless to say, there are guards patrolling day and night, and tourists don't stop. To the west is the capital, and they dare not enter the city, and there are guards on the east. In the past, many people fled, but most of them were captured and beaten to the death. In order to escape, he observed for a long time. Only in the northeast is a small lake, which is relatively sparsely populated. Where to escape.
They are young at all, and they have never seen the world. I don't know that the Dao is behind the heavens, but in fact, most of the areas in this world are just gray, and compared to some people, they are actually nothing. Even compared with some barbarian slaves in the barbarian area, or the side households of Bashu, they actually live in heaven.
There were those who managed to escape, but not them.
That night they were running, and no one knew. It was getting dark, and the steward began to take the roll call to work.
Hebei also began to be lively and prosperous, with many tourists, driving many wine shops, teahouses, brothels, inns, and shops to be built one by one. Not only these service industries, but also some workshops have been built, including ceramics, textiles, woodware, and lacquerware, where Song Ping worked, was a lacquerware shop.
The steward named him, but he didn't see Song Ping, Song Ping didn't care, he was worried about Song Ping's little daughter-in-law. Immediately brought people to his house, but there was no one in the family, and Steward Luo knew that their family had fled. Immediately send someone to chase after them. At first, they got the wrong direction, thinking that their home was in Shaanzhou and they must have fled west. It was to flee west, but Song Ping thought about the route of escape for a long time, and did not immediately flee to the west, and continued to flee to the northeast, planning to find a family to work, farming, and hide for two years before going back.
I searched for a few days but couldn't find it.
If ordinary people escape, it would be fine, and some things should not be done excessively, but Steward Luo has always been unwilling to be reconciled to that little beauty, and continues to mobilize people to search, and the rumors will come out.
On the bright side, Zhao Pu is another important helper, Tao Gu, who often speaks ill of Song Jiu, also died of illness last year, but in fact, Zhao Pu has been adjusted for more than half a year and personnel changes have gradually suppressed Zhao Kuangyi's limelight. Hearing that Hebei was looking for someone, there were many officials in various places around the capital who wanted to flatter Zhao Pu, so they took the initiative to look for it. As soon as they looked for it, it was a bad thing, and in just a few days, they found Song Ping and his wife in a main family in Huazhou. They were right to flee to the northeast, but they didn't flee far enough, and if they had gone a little farther, they had crossed the Yellow River and arrived at Shanzhou, the Daimyo's Mansion, and they might have fled. Then there would be no tragedy below......
A family of three was escorted back.
The Song Dynasty had some laws that protected the vulnerable.
For example, the concubine has a service period, and after this service period, any master must also release the person, unless the concubine voluntarily continues to serve.
There is also a worker, Pan Mei issued a decree in the south, hired him directly, and the two parties must make a contract to work, but the main family exploits too much, such as serious wage deduction, or all kinds of inhumane practices, then you can file a lawsuit with the government, and the official will forcibly terminate the contract.
But this is the feudal era, just out of the Tang Dynasty tribal system, all kinds of laws are still beneficial to the powerful. Unless the Lord goes too far, the contract will always exist. Even when encountering powerful figures, such as Chen Zhixiao's concubine, who killed many slaves and maids, if it were not for the impeachment of Yanchen, the slave and maid's families would not dare to complain. Even whether the concubines want to or not, the main family can give them to the guests to play with the concubines within the years, or send them directly to relatives and friends.
Don't say it's inhumane, this is the humane concept of the Song Dynasty, just like Su Dongpo gave the concubine to someone, and the concubine was unwilling to commit suicide and died, but no one said that Su Dongpo did something wrong, only that the concubine was a toad who wanted to eat swan meat.
Steward Luo saw Song Ping and his wife, Ha Lu Ha Da smiled, at this moment he felt very proud, behind him was Mount Tai, Mount Everest.
It's hard to start if you don't escape, as soon as you escape, you give him a chance, tie up the family of three to the river, and the other side of the river is the wharf, and he asked his servants to beat Song Ping hard. Then he said to Song Ping's wife: "Little lady Sun, beg me, beg me." ”
As long as you obey me, you husband and wife will be released immediately.
Song Ping's wife saw that her husband was beaten to death, and cried: "Steward Luo, don't fight, the slave family begs you." ”
When Song Ping heard this, his heart was like a knife, he was a fierce person, and he looked at the south, why is it just across a river, he is also in charge, and the difference is so big. He didn't understand why there was a river across the river, one heaven and the other hell.
Then he looked in the direction of Shaanzhou, where was his hometown, and he fled with his wife from the drought that year. Originally, the imperial court used labor for relief, but he heard that the steward came to summon people, and he was nostalgic for the prosperity of the capital, so he came to the capital with the steward. Why was I confused at the time? No matter how prosperous the capital is, can you enjoy it? If not, I'd be hoeing the weeds between the sorghums in my hometown. He seemed to smell the fragrance of sorghum leaves in the air.
Thinking of this, he suddenly broke away from the two people who had grabbed him, and jumped into the water, despite the fact that his body was tied by ropes. I couldn't move, I sank and floated up again, and I looked to the south again, where is heaven. Then the body sank again, and did not float up...... (To be continued......)
