Chapter 108: The Most Dangerous Occupation (I)

Song Jiu sat down, looked at the crops in the field and said, "Not exactly, the previous two doctors taught the scriptures and the law, and I was very opposed to it, because it would distract the students' energy. But if you don't think like this now, you may not learn much scriptures and laws in a year, but if you learn, you will eventually understand a little. ”

Boss Hu nodded.

Song Jiu also asked him to learn, but he couldn't learn.

"It is precisely because I have learned a little, coupled with arithmetic and accounting, that the court will look at it more and more, if you don't learn, you can only be regarded as a bookkeeper. Besides, a local official is in charge of a lot of affairs, not only in the officialdom, but also in agriculture, workshops, commerce, water conservancy, and even mining, animal husbandry and solving cases, which can be proficient in them all? What is longer than one will be shorter than the other. What should I do if I encounter these things? There are subordinate officials and staff. In the future, students will learn a little more agriculture and know more, even as a small official, their income will be greater. Then you see, standing here and looking at the beauty of the other side, it is also a kind of scenery, and occasionally come over to relax, which is called work and play. ”

"Do you want to learn agriculture too?"

"You think officials are good? Pan Mei is in the south, he is a military general, he goes into battle to kill the enemy, but he is forced to do what civilian officials do. even asked his son to force me to hand over twenty students, where do I hand them over? ”

"Okay, how much space are you going to buy?"

"Twenty or thirty acres, it doesn't need to be too big, but this small pond must be preserved."

"When to buy?"

"The sooner you buy it, the better, the more expensive it is, and you may not be able to buy it."

"It's not difficult, but the land is really expensive, right. Kuro, many folks asked me. When will you collect the deed shares, and the dock will be built. How did the imperial court employ workers? ”

"I don't know much about the wharf labor, but the imperial court is not heavy, and it is mainly based on hiring people, and it is low, not once or twice, this is a perennial labor, and the people will complain, and eventually the court will be forced to raise the price. In fact, the construction of this wharf is also beneficial to the imperial court. In the future, not only the goods of the imperial court, but also the goods of the people can also be moved, at least they can get a cost for repairing equipment, and they also save people's labor. The people of the province do not complain, I think this is what His Majesty wants to see the most, right? ”

"The emperor is a good emperor."

"How to operate, Hu Xingtou, where do I know the way? But the deed money can be raised now, and I will go back at night. I asked Li Zhu to help you, and you will count the people in Hezhong and Hebei who are willing to take shares. Hebei can't be left behind, this is the spirit of the river. And if you tell the folks, you will benefit in the year after tomorrow. ”

"Is the store going to be built?"

"Yes. Almost, the year after tomorrow will have to pay the imperial court taxes, although it is 10,000 yuan. But you can't take it from the deed money, because the deed will be noisy. Besides, it's a long delay. The deed stocks may not be happy either. "Song Jiudao, this is to treat Boss Hu as his own.

Turned around again. I greeted a group of villagers I knew and walked back with Yuping.

Yuping said, "Jiulang, are you really planning to build a farm?" ”

"Twenty or thirty acres, what kind of farm is it, it can only be said to be a place to relax, and agriculture is also very far away, and it will take several years for the academy to be built."

"Kurou ......"

"What do you want to say?"

"Jiulang, is it okay for the slave family to ask you for something?"

"What's the matter?"

"Don't abandon the slave family in the future."

Song Jiu was silent for a while, and finally nodded. This matter is really not easy to do, and there is a way to solve it, that is, to marry Pan Li'er as a wife and take Yuping as a concubine. However, as a concubine, in this era, there is no personal security, she can sell or give away, and the children she gives birth to are also concubines, and she is not qualified to compete for family property. Peeling off the coat of Song Jiu Chengshilang and the founder of the country, his actual status is not noble, not to mention that when Yuping met him, his status was even more humble, how to say this, even Song Jiuda never thought about it from the bottom of his heart.

But Apple was happy.

It took a year to delay, and I finally heard a reply from Song Jiu, albeit a very vague one. She hummed a few songs softly, all of which were "Linjiang Immortals" plagiarized by Song Jiu. Xiande and the Song Dynasty lyricists were all dumbfounded, it turned out that Xiao Ling could also play like this, and play so elegantly, or proudly, instead of the original yellow tune, fragrant slang music.

Song Jiu and the others came back.

There are many people in the government who came out and were discussing, all talking about the glass. Except for a few Yanai who were friendly with Pan Weigu's brothers, most of them were not surprised by Song Jiu and Yuping. The Pan family is too tall, and it is too difficult for Song Jiu to beg Pan Li'er, which is even higher than the main store he built. And Jade Apple is virtuous and beautiful, and if you choose to change your choice, you will choose Jade Apple.

Song Jiu gathered everyone together and said, "The student's graduation exam is over, we should talk about business." ”

This is what everyone wants to hear the most, not to mention anything else, just with this glass, the money invested will also have a large return. Song Jiu continued: "The imperial court is building bridges and wharves, and the amount of work is large, and some migrant workers have been withdrawn, and some steel has been squeezed, so the first phase of the project can only be a playground and a Zhengdian inn. I calculated with the students that if the main store and inn were built according to the drawings, it would cost about 90,000 to 100,000 yuan. The cost of the playground will not be lower than this figure. There were other items of money to be used, such as the bridge over the river island, which could be used as the gate of the main store, and had to be decorated. This money cannot be paid by the imperial court, and it will cost a lot of money to move a lot of flowers and trees next spring, which is not worth much in the local area, and it will cost a lot of money to transport it. They will cost close to 250,000 yuan. I used to pay some money in advance, but this is also not counted, and I will not let it pay dividends. But it can be paid in advance, including dividends in the future, and it can also be used for research and development. ”

Song Jiu lost money on this money, but he took the lion's head, so he couldn't care about it, at least it could appease some people's unhappy mood.

"Last year's construction, coupled with the subsequent construction, there are still more than 76,000 money left, but it will use the people of Henan in the river in the future, and many people also want to buy shares, and I agreed. In addition to them, the rest will be invested by you, the quantity will not be very large, and it will not be too much, too much is a waste, and it cannot be built, so I will send someone to guard them. First-served, first-served, terminated when the principal amount of 250,000 yuan is reached. ”

After finishing speaking, Song Jiu was snickering in his stomach. This reminds him of a story about a hundred defeats and a hundred defeats. Actually, the money is not much. Say it's less and less. It was an astronomical amount on that person's head, after all, there were still few millionaires in the capital at this time. Even if there is, there is no one who can come up with a million in cash. But there are also not many stalls in so many yagna.

However, squeezing toothpaste one by one, and squeezing hundreds of times like last year, it will definitely not be able to make up, let the people of Lianghe make up, how much can it be made?

But if it's full, it won't be recruited again, and it can also cause tension.

Originally, they didn't agree, one is to further whet their appetite, at least to make them delusional. I'm not in a hurry. The second is to wait for the glass.

Song Jiu simply made the words clear again and said: "The richest person in my dynasty is not Bashu, it should have been the richest where, but now there is an endless rebellion, it has nothing to do with the rich word, the richest is still Guanzhong." But the richest one in the Central Plains is the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the other is Wu Yue. However, the fastest upward momentum in my direction is Huainan. It only takes 66 days for General Wang to attack Shu, and the Tang Lord is as dark as the Shu Lord, and there is no danger of terrain, will they return to our dynasty sooner or later? Then Huainan has the fastest upward momentum. The richest Tang, Wu Yue, are all on the lifeline of Bianshui. At that time, there will be two taxes of thousands of stones, and goods will be exchanged. There will be 20 million stone and 30 million stone goods unloaded here, so I said when I was building the wharf, I am afraid that this large wharf will not be able to handle the unloading task. The average of a ship is five hundred stones. Fifty or sixty thousand ships, ten people per ship. 5,600,000 people. One person dropped ten dollars, and Hezhou had food, drink and entertainment. Just take a tenth, what kind of number is that? Moreover, it will absorb many people from the capital and nearby states and counties. There are also many industrial supports. How much profit will you make in a year? ”

After a pause, he said: "You come to me to ask for glass, you can ask for it, which means that you can think that I will give you this love, that is, you don't think I have a low status and treat me as a friend." I, Song Jiu, have never hurt anyone when I'm so old, and I won't hurt my friends. Now that I am investing, I dare not guarantee that it will be a thousand-fold return in 50 years, and a hundred-fold return may be realized. ”

Song Jiu said that his status was low and slightly self-deprecating, and Song De's identity was used well, so it was not low, and this year, he was added to the rank of knight again and again, and coupled with his influence, he had officially evolved into a nobleman.

At present, there is still a gap with most of the yamen, but this gap is gradually narrowing.

The changes can also be seen, although Yanai joked last year and was a little sluggish, but this year he will not dare to slack off.

However, Song Jiu is telling the truth, he needs these Yanei, he has a lot of wraps, and some people will be red in the future, but he has too many scruples, so he doesn't dare to impeach, with the help of these Yanei, he will save a lot of things. But it's also troublesome, like the eldest princess. In front of him, these yamen are relatively close to him, so he hopes that they will have a larger share, at least keep them close to themselves and have more say in the yameni.

Fu Zhaoshou reacted: "Jiulang, how much money do you have to make?" ”

It is undeveloped, once developed, it is equivalent to owning half of Shanghai Pudong, how much money will it make?

Of course, Song Jiu wouldn't say it, and said, "If I don't make money, do I dare to promise to hand over nearly six million yuan to the imperial court?" Maybe I'll have to pay it in the future. In this way, this fundraising is in charge of Fu Saburo, Gao Dalang, Shi Dalang, and Pan Dalang. ”

Gong in the future, but everyone has to buy his face. Fu Zhaoshou is Zhao Kuangyi's brother-in-law, Shi Baozheng has a lot of money, although Shi Shouxin has retired, as the head of the founding marshal of the Song Dynasty, his prestige is still there, as for the Pan family, everyone understands.

Send this group of officials back.

Song Jiu began to open up the classroom, which is also his foundation, even if he doesn't have to work hard, as long as Zhao Da and Zhao Er are happy, there will be everything.

The amount of work is not large, just give it to the Guo brothers to take a look by the way. Song Jiu still focused on the two major projects of the imperial court, and also took the students to start calculating the more detailed Zhengdian playground. But the construction still did not start, although this time it was finally sure to raise all the principal, but the money was not complete, and Song Jiu did not dare to start the construction. How to raise money, Song Jiu didn't ask, but the news that came was not evil.

It's been a busy day, and it's the middle of June. Dr. Yan and Dr. Zhang came to see him, and batches of students were hired by the imperial court, which gave them a sense of accomplishment and took a look at the progress of classroom development. After talking for a while, Dr. Yan asked Song Jiu for ice. Last year, before Yuping moved here, before Song Jiu went to Hunan, he hired someone to dig a simple ice cellar, partly for gluttony, and there were ice drinks sold in the capital in summer, but where would they be sold in the river? Part of it is also to solve the problem of food storage.

The store is slow to open next winter, and it must not only be delicious, but also unique and delicious to match the extravagant decoration on the outside. This requires a variety of novel ingredients. But summer is here, and these ingredients are not easy to store.

For two reasons, an ice cellar was built.

Song Jiu didn't refuse, knocked down a big piece of ice in the back, washed a few peaches, cut them into diced meat, put some sugar cheese, a large porcelain basin, and asked Cui'er to give some to the guests, and several people ate ice drinks and talked. Dr. Yan said: "Song Jiu, thanks to you, the imperial court is finally ready to build Taixue, and at the same time subdivide the lecture into doctors, Xuezheng, Xuelu, Xuezheng Jiupin, Xuelu from Jiupin, I heard that the imperial court issued an edict to allocate Zhu Sanlang as Xuelu. ”

However, the edict was sent to Zhu San's family, and Song Jiu would not know the way.

Song Jiudao: "I believe Zhu San will be very happy when he hears it." ”

The three of them talked for a while, Yan Zhang and the others went back, Yuping cleaned up the dishes, and suddenly said, "Jiulang, that concubine of Shu is so shameless." (To be continued......)
