Chapter 54: The Poisonous Dragon Ears Collect the Thunder (4)

When the woman arrived at the second aunt's house, she took out the silver first, which was regarded as repaying the principal and interest of the last rice loan, and finally made the chill on the faces of her aunt and uncle dissipate. She explained her intentions, and Zuihou emphasized: "Now my man is doing things for the prince. ”

The gunpowder shop where Wu Jiazi is located is a famous big shop in Beijing, and there is a set of "Zhongyi Water Margin" fireworks town store. The fireworks can burst out in the air with lifelike portraits, all of which are Water Margin characters, a total of one hundred and eight. Each cannon costs five taels of silver, and the full set is discounted to five hundred taels, and only the really wealthy families who spend a lot of money are willing to spend this money.

However, among the Beijing divisions, there is no shortage of Baise people, and wealthy families from all over the country gather, what is five hundred taels? Five thousand taels were only the cost of a wine feast for them. Therefore, the business of this gunpowder shop is extremely prosperous, and the treatment of men and apprentices is good, even if you want to go in to do chores, you have to ask for some face.

On the other hand, it is the prince of the East Palace, if he follows the prince, he will be the one who eats the imperial grain.

The Wu family thought about it, and was not willing to give up a high-paying job of one or two silver a month, but also reluctant to have the opportunity to eat imperial food.

Seeing that the second aunt and uncle were so unhappy, Liu beat the side drum and said: "Now my man's uncle is the eldest companion of the prince's side, scared, that style, tsk, I really don't know how to say it." He brought my man to take charge of the Anmin factory, and he was five taels of silver a month! The prince still comes to the factory from time to time, when does he not talk to my man? ”

"Uncle is out of breath." Liu's second aunt praised it unwillingly.

"I also thought about my uncle and aunt taking care of my family, so I came to say more." Liu said: "The prince obviously attaches great importance to this gunpowder, and I heard that the gunpowder shop in Beijing will be taken down after the New Year." That's the Prince! The Emperor's eldest son! What is he trying to do, but it's not a matter of lip service? If he had followed the prince earlier, maybe his cousin would have turned back and would have been a shopkeeper! ”

Liu's words are false and true, and there is no way to check them. In case there is no movement on the prince's side next year, anyway, people have already deceived him, can he still go back? Besides, it's nothing more than a matter of wages, and a man has power in his hands, so what's wrong with opening his cousin higher?

Liu's second aunt lowered her head and thought about it, feeling that this niece was reasonable, looked at her husband, and said, "What do you say?" ”

The man of the Wu family was still undecided, and said: "I think it's better to ask about this matter first, and then I'll talk back to my uncle when the time comes." ”

Seeing that it was difficult to move for a while, Liu had to nod and said: "Then it has to be faster, if it is delayed, the shortage of haode in the factory will be gone." ”

The Wu family thought about it and nodded again and again, and they wanted to call their son back that night.

The Wu family's son's name is "Bucheng", and with his surname, it is "Wucheng", which is a very auspicious name. Xu is stained with the light of this name, Wu Bucheng is really smooth, what to do, he was already a teacher in his early twenties, and he has a position in the gunpowder shop, with a salary of one tael of silver per month.

The master had already told him privately that if he opened a branch in Linqing next year, he would recommend him to be a third shopkeeper in the past, which was a great trust. At this rate, maybe you can become the shopkeeper of a store before the age of forty, which can be described as young and promising.

Wu Bucheng returned home and listened to his parents' relays, but he had other plans in his heart. He was in the middle of the market, and he heard a lot of rumors. The prince is the prince of Taiwei Xingjun, and he will definitely be promoted to the god of Ziwei Xing in the future, and it stands to reason that there is no one in the world who is more shili than him. However, now that things are not going well in the country, natural and man-made disasters, internal and external troubles, there are many sayings in the Jingshi market that "change the sky", and the old man also said that the world may have to change his surname.

At this time, he was still messing with the prince, did he want to be a loyal minister?

Wu Bucheng felt a chill in his neck for no reason, and he hammered twice in his heart, and said secretly: "Being a loyal minister is a matter of losing your head!" ”

"Let's talk to my cousin," Wu Cheng said, "I don't have hair on my mouth, I can't handle things well, and it won't be good if I break my brother-in-law's errand." ”

The Wu family couple didn't know their son's sincere calculations, so they persuaded: "Don't worry about this, your brother-in-law's uncle is a big celebrity around the prince, even if it really fails, it won't be a big deal." ”

"The gunpowder thing is uncertain, if you don't get it right, it will explode, the time of Wang Gong's factory, and the time of the new factory, aren't they all the people inside who did the mess? How many people died! Wu Bucheng's face wrinkled, deliberately scaring his father. He added: "And the official family is the most unruly, what if someone else causes his son to die?" ”

When the Wu couple heard this, they also beat the drum in their hearts and said, "My son is reasonable, reasonable. ”

The Wu family only has this single seedling, and he must not be allowed to have three longs and two shorts.

"Then I'll go back to your cousin-in-law tomorrow." Wu Liu said.

Wu Bucheng nodded.

……

"Anmin Factory said that it was a foreign factory, but it was the yamen of the twenty-fourth prison, and those old oilmen were in a group to deal with Liu Wei, so he naturally couldn't do anything." Zhu Cihong said softly.

Liu Ruoyu breathed a sigh of relief. The report sent by Anmin Factory in recent days made him feel worried, everything was the same as before his nephew took over, even the loss amount was the same. The only explanation is that the group of people below not only did not make less money, but even the share of the original factory supervisor was privately divided.

Liu Wei's temperament Liu Ruoyu knows very well, and it is impossible to have the courage to accept those black money.

For this point, Zhu Cihong sees it very clearly. In later generations, few of the parachuted executives were able to settle the situation within a year, and even if the board of directors supported it, he could not make drastic reforms, and the company's operation depended on the executives under the leadership of the middle backbone.

"I never expected Liu Wei to be able to arrest him immediately." Zhu Cihong smiled again, "You, who are an uncle, haven't you thought of any way for him?" ”

"The minister only thinks for His Highness." Liu Ruoyu smiled.

"Let's talk about it."

"Actually, it's an old method," Liu Ruoyu said, "just mix some sand into it." ”

"That's right," Zhu Cihong nodded, "How are you going to mix it?" ”

"The old minister thinks that he can send some people who are familiar with the rules from the second and third departments of the attendant's room." Liu Ruoyu said.

Zhu Cihong shook his head and said: "Those people have only been here for more than a month, and they may not be reliable, how can they care about others?" What I mean is: let the major shops in Beijing participate in the shares. ”

"Participation?" Liu Ruoyu was taken aback: "Your Highness, Anmin Factory is a gunpowder bureau and a yamen, how can you participate in the shares?" ”

"Restructuring." Zhu Cihong said without hesitation: "Change the Gunpowder Bureau into the Tianjia Gunpowder Factory, and from now on be responsible for your own profits and losses." The supply of gunpowder for the three battalions was to be bought with silver, or to be put on the books. Let the gunpowder shops in the capital come up with formulas, give them shares, and the year-end dividends are not a lot of theirs. ”

"It's okay to say that it's okay to come out, but I'm afraid few families are happy to come out." Liu Ruoyu shook his head slightly.

"I only need the formula for the power of gunpowder, and I'm not interested in other tricks." Zhu Cihong said: "Besides, there are not many people who toast and don't eat and drink, and it is enough to kill two to scare the monkeys." ”
