The people in the cottage were still a little unconvinced, as the boss, they took a sip of wine, grabbed the tiger skin they were sitting on, and looked down at their eyes for a long time before they raised their heads and looked at Lu Xiaowan again.

"Books? The children in my village are all rough-raised, and it will be difficult for you to subdue them! The words of the government are not credible, and the words of the businessman are even more unbelievable, and he was tempted not long after, thinking of the things that have been surrounded and suppressed for many years, he feels that he has been very wronged, and he refuses to raise his head to admit it.

Lu Xiaowan was not afraid, the ignorant eyes of the children outside just made her a little relieved, as for disobedience, it was very simple, that is, a strict master made a high apprentice, anyway, there was no shortage of people who could fight in her hands.

If the child is disobedient, then practice well, and in the future, if you meet a disobedient person, you will be kidnapped directly to guard the order, "You are wrong in this sentence, the biggest reason why merchants dare to deceive people is because they know that you are illiterate, and if there is a way, they will not give money, but they can't deceive you in black and white." ”

After hearing what the boss said, he felt that something was wrong, why did the merchants send the money out by themselves, and the government would not let the bandits give money, "Sister, you don't understand the things when we deal with the government, if there is room to survive, how could your eldest brother and I end up like this?" ”

It is not easy to solve the affairs of the government, especially many people in the government are extremely greedy, and would rather not let the people have a good time, but also put the silver into their own pockets.

"Is there any silver afraid that they won't help?" After the road is repaired, the government will definitely try its best to collect the road money into its own pocket, and Lu Xiaowan once thought about whether there is a problem with this method.

How do you know that after the boss heard this, he laughed, and the distrust and ridicule in his eyes made Lu Xiaowan a little flustered, "Sister, you really don't understand if you don't know, the government has not cooperated with bandits since ancient times, and the silver on the surface is naturally easy to say, but the silver in the secret is extremely difficult to collect, how to send it makes sense, and not sending it is another business." ”

The joint is not on the government, and an idea flashed quickly in Lu Xiaowan's mind, the government will give what it wants, and the cooperation of several villages will make the government unprofitable.

"Since ancient times, the official road was naturally collected by the government, and the bandits were also said by the government, so it was unprofitable for them to be unprofitable, and the position where everyone is located is the main road, and passing through safely is what the businessmen want, isn't it?"

[Sister, what are you talking about, I don't understand a word! ] 】

"You shut up for me, I'm playing tricks, only they know the joints, if the county order turns a blind eye, there won't even be any news on it!"

[Won't your man be above in the future? 】

"Does it matter? The trade route has been opened, and only people outside can do business, and the silk tea and various porcelain in Jiangnan every year are going abroad, you see that the Qinbei generation has no road, and there is no money if there is no road, so what can he see in the upper position? ”

[I always feel like you're fooling this system!] 】

"How so? I've been looking at the map for a few months and can't waste my eyes in vain. Lu Xiaowan continued to drink the wine in her bowl, choking so much that her face turned red, and something seemed to be wrong with her body, as if she had some rashes.

The location of the cottage is indeed the Qinbei generation, and the cashier sounds feasible, but the brothers below can't do it, they are all coarse, they don't talk or do things, and when they fight there, others will know that they are here to rob.

"You guys come out!" A few people with wine and meat in their hands, when they heard their eldest brother calling themselves, they ran out and stood in front of the wine table, one meter eight tall, plus a dark and strong physique, no one would be charged if they saw it.

The problem of appearance can be solved, Lu Xiaowan asked people to take out some clothes from the carriage she came, all of them were blue-black, and there were some very conspicuous logos on them.

"Big brother, do you think I didn't think of it? It's too simple, hats, clothes and shoes are all unified, even the carriage is ready, as long as the road is repaired, when the time comes, we will secretly intercept some merchants, one sings white face and one sings red face, call a few money to let people go, and then find a few people after the thing is done, and send some money out. ”

At first glance, there was no problem, the boss had been walking for many years, and an ambiguous look made the person at the table begin to touch the knife on his waist.

"Why did you help us?"

Lu Xiaowan took the wine bowl, toasted to the boss, and then reached out and asked people to take some very special things, most of which came from the Western Regions and Jiangnan.

"Do you see that?"

The boss nodded, looking at the fineness of some of these things, which were only available with top-notch craftsmanship, and there were also some fabrics that many silk Zhuangzi could not weave.

Things are only one aspect, Lu Xiaowan took out the long-prepared account book in her hand, and in just half a year, she found a way to resell the things in the two places to each other, and the silver taels she earned were a huge amount of money.

"I can't earn money in my own hands if the caravan doesn't have money, if I can open up the trade routes on both sides, this road will be a rare fortune from now on, the cattle and sheep in the north can be sold, and the cloth in the south of the Yangtze River can also be sent, but this has nothing to do with me, my things are more important than them."

She has already thought about how to develop in the next twenty years, with the help of silk and cloth in the south of the Yangtze River, open up the market in the Western Regions, and then use the benefits to collect a large amount of commercial taxes, develop various businesses, and establish various schools that can train talents.

Bandits will also completely change their identity and status in this reform, Lu Xiaowan does not kill people or go through fierce conquests, but trade route reform, as for whether the status of merchants will lead to war or reform in a few hundred years, that is their children's business.

"I don't understand, what the hell do you mean!" Only three of the masters understood, thinking of the food, and glanced at the woman in front of them.

The wine in the wine glass had already been drunk, and she was still looking at the glass in a circle, "I understand what Miss Lu means, after the completion of the trade route, the government will inevitably intervene, what will you do when the time comes?" ”

"Some money is embarrassed by the government and needs someone to collect it on their behalf, do you understand?"

The face of the Celestial Empire is always the most important, the talents at the bottom will be ignored, obviously the trade route is so valuable, but no one dares to develop, it is nothing more than two reasons, one is that the road is far away and inconvenient, no one feels the beginning, and the other is the problem of face.

It is true that the emperor may not be able to tear off his face and do this, "The children in the village do not have a husband, what do you think?" ”

"The books have been printed, and I don't teach the Four Books and the Five Classics, I don't teach the old things, and the things I have chosen are very useful for them to make a living, and my husband has personally selected them for five subjects, medicine, arithmetic shopkeepers, cooks, weavers and embroiderers, and carpenters." The things arranged by Lu Xiaowan are currently the simplest, and the books have been prepared, and they have more things to contact than the children under the mountain, and naturally there are fewer taboos.

The boss has something wrong in his heart, it is naturally a good thing that the children can study medicine, and in the future, they will spend a lot of money to send their children down the mountain, find a place farther away, and live a stable life.

"If you can do it, I won't have anything to say."

"Not only that, but I will send all the children down the mountain when I have the opportunity in the future to give them a normal environment, and there is only one thing that you need to promise me, and that is how to teach the children must be left to me."

The third master knew that the woman in front of him was deviant and never obeyed the rules everywhere, so he was naturally a little scared in his heart, and the risks and temptations were hovering above him, and he was a little struggling.

"What do you say we should do, big brother, my child is ten years old this year, and he has thought of a lot of ways, but he was stunned and didn't send him down the mountain, I can't let him stay in the village!"

When Ye Tian entered the house, he took a lot of silver tickets in his hand and threw them directly on the table, "The money for road repair is ready, if you think you can, take it!" ”

The apprehension in their hearts was disturbed by those silver tickets, and several masters still seemed to have some considerations, especially the three masters, who had never put down the cup in their hands.

The strange thing is that the big boss did not speak, and many children in the village had already begun to be lively, running wildly with their own toys.

"If the road is built, it will be easier for the government to hit it." The forest is a natural obstacle, and if there is no road, there is no chance to hit it, and when the road is formed, the brothers on the mountain will not have a chance to live.

"Whoever said it, the government can acquiesce, I remember that the county magistrate of Xunyang County is a clean official, and he can acquiesce to everything."

In the eyes of the Qing officials, the people are human life, and the obstruction of the mountain makes Xunyang County have no chance of development everywhere, and a few places have even been surrounded by villages, and the people are complaining.

"That old antique in Xunyang County, sister, don't you know that old thing doesn't want money or food, so he guards his own one-third of an acre, and it's useless for you to say anything."

Every year when giving gifts, they have a headache, Xunyang County never accepts gifts, and the silver in their hands is useless if they can't give it out, and they have a headache every time they think of it.

Lu Xiaowan saw an opportunity, Xunyang County does not collect money, but the people have no additional sources, so they can only guard their own land, and when today's land annexation is serious, 3,000 acres of 5,000 acres of fertile land in Qingyang County alone are in the hands of the rich.

"I'll say it myself, you don't have to worry!"

Don't give food, sending seeds is always a way, not to mention that Xunyang County itself is very poor, if you can eat and dress warmly in the coming year, I am afraid it will be a great merit.

"What are you doing here?"

"The three masters are so smart, will they not know what I want?"

Who does not covet the wealth of Jiangnan, and the Western Regions are rich in rare treasures, if the trade route is opened, the silver in it is probably beyond their count.
