Chapter 870: When the water is clear, there are no fish
"That's fine. You have been in Ning'an for many years, and you have been the owner of the dyeing workshop, what do you think of the dyeing workshop?" Fang Yun asked.
"You...... What do you think of the dyeing workshop?" asked Liang Fang cautiously.
Fang Yun laughed and said, "It's because I don't have any opinion about the dyeing workshop that I let you say it." You first talk about the future direction of the dyeing workshop, then talk about the shortcomings of the dyeing workshop, and finally talk about why the county-owned workshops are not as profitable as the private ones, and why they are constantly forced to sell. ”
Liang Fang asked suspiciously, "...... Would you like to hear that?"
"Then what do you think I want to hear?" Fang Yun smiled.
Liang Fang Owner did not answer immediately, in his opinion, Fang Yun's sudden arrest of a large number of Fang Owners this time was probably to exclude dissidents, target Ji Zhibai, and even point the sword at Liushan.
Even the stupidest people in Ning'an City know that whether it is a county-owned workshop or a royal workshop, it is a money village where the magnates take money at will, and the background of these owners is too complicated.
The owner of the Liang workshop thought for a moment and said, "Xia Guan has been in charge of the dyeing workshop for two years, so let's talk about it." The situation of the dyehouse is much better than before, and the annual surplus is now almost five times that of the time before I took charge! Of course, this is mainly due to the monarch, the queen mother, and the cabinet......"
"I want to hear the truth!" the smile on Fang Yun's face disappeared.
The owner of Liang Fang was shocked, gritted his teeth, and said: "Since the county magistrate said so, the lower officials can only tell the truth." The future of the dyeing workshop? The dyeing workshop not only needs organs, but also dyes, which seems simple but is actually difficult, but it is very profitable. Xia Guan is old and is about to step down as the owner of the dyeing workshop, and within three years, the dyeing workshop will inevitably be sold cheaply because of insufficient profits. ”
"Hmm. Fang Yun's face was expressionless.
Ao Huang was puzzled, the efficiency of the dyeing workshop was obviously very good, why did the owner of the Liang workshop have problems as long as he stepped down? Why was he sold cheaply? Although Ao Huang could not figure out the key to this, he realized that the word "cheap sale" was very knowledgeable.
"As for the defects of the dyeing workshop, the lower officials thought that it was not in the mechanism, but in the dyes and weaving and dyeing techniques......"
Next, the owner of the Liang workshop seemed to have completely forgotten his previous thoughts, and talked endlessly about the dyeing workshop. In the end, even when Steward Zhao came, he could only wait outside.
Fang Yun listened carefully, occasionally interjected to ask the owner of Liang Fang to explain, and became more and more familiar with the dyeing workshop.
The two chatted for an hour, and Fang Yun nodded: "It seems that the owner of the Liang workshop is indeed working in weaving and dyeing and is loyal to his duties, as for the matter of arranging relatives and friends to the dyeing workshop and the process of getting the owner, it is nothing. ”
The owner of Liang Fang's body was shocked, and a look of panic appeared in his eyes, realizing that the other party was a cool official who even raised people and said that he would catch him, does this sentence have any deeper meaning?
Fang Yun then said: "Recently, things have been busy, and some arrangements may have to be delayed. But. Within a month, I will ask someone from the Ministry of Works to arrange your affairs. Do you like to be an official, or would you rather be a rich man?"
The owner of Liang Fang was stunned for a moment, and he didn't dare to hide anything, and subconsciously said: "The lower officials are old, even if they are officials, they have no future, so it is better to be a rich man." ”
"Good. Then I will ask the Ministry of Industry to draw up a ten-year employment document with you, not only to let you continue to be the owner of the dyeing workshop, but also to give you a certain dividend. At present, it is tentatively scheduled to reward you with a bonus of 10% of the dyeing workshop every year. ”
"Huh?" said the owner of Liang Fang, involuntarily.
"Huh?" Ao Huang also shouted.
As for the surrounding officials and the people waiting outside the door for an interview, they were all dumbfounded, an old boy who didn't have much real power would have been replaced. How can you suddenly get a bonus of 10% of the dyeing workshop?
The dyeing workshop in charge of Liang Fang is not small, plus the previous salary, the income of the Liang Fang owner in the next year will reach at least two hundred taels of silver, which is worth half a year's income of a small workshop!
Fang Yun smiled and said, "In view of the merit of the owner of the Liang Fang in managing the dyeing workshop. But the reward has not been able to keep up, and the county rewarded the owner of Liang Fang with 300 taels of silver, and applied to the Ministry of Rites for the title. ”
Everyone inside and outside the county government was even more surprised.
The reward of three hundred taels of silver was terrifying enough. It is even more unimaginable to apply for a knighthood from the Ministry of Rites!
Although Zhao Yong also has the title of the lowest townsman, it is because his grandfather, father and him have worked for the king of Qingyang for three generations, and the king of Qingyang has always treated his loyal subordinates well, so he has the title of a townsman.
For ordinary children and even Xiucai, Zhao Yong is through the sky!
But the owner of Liang is an ordinary child, and the reason why he can become the owner of the workshop is because he is old and spicy, and he has known the county Cheng Tao for many years, and sent some money. Even Fang Yun hinted that he knew about this before.
The dyeing workshop was not an oil and water workshop before, and the owner of Liang Fang could naturally be the owner, but he turned waste into treasure, which naturally caused others to blush, and he would soon be transferred.
But at the last moment, Fang Yun not only let him continue to be the owner, not only raised his salary, but also asked him to be knighted?
Even if it is the lowest countryman, it is also a title, and it is a major event for the glory of the ancestors!
Everyone suddenly realized that Fang Yun, like King Qingyang, was also a piece of heaven!
"How can you be old and decrepit...... How can He De ......" The owner of Liang Fang was so excited that he couldn't speak, and the old man in his sixties actually had red circles in his eyes.
"You deserve this reward for your virtue. Okay, now that the interview with you is over, now those owners who are accused of being in the county government may be a little out of shape, you can take my order arrow and go for a walk to appease them. Fang Yun said, ordering the messenger to hand the arrow to the Liang Fang owner.
The owner of the Liang Fang naturally understood Fang Yun's intentions, and immediately held his head high and said, "The next official has an order!" After speaking, the old man turned around and left the lobby with a pride on his face that could not be concealed.
Some of the officers outside quietly left to inform the officials who did not come, because this matter was too important!
In the main bookroom, Shen Wei put the teacup aside, looked at the official in front of him, frowned and asked: "Fang Yun already knows that the owner of the Liang Fang has taken the path of Tao Dingnian, and sent his relatives into the dyeing workshop, but he will not be held accountable, but will be rewarded or even ...... Sealing?"
"Yes. ”
"However, he wants to put Zhao Yong or the little prince to death?"
"It doesn't seem like I want to be spared. ”
"This fool! He actually gave benefits to the powerless old boy, but he wanted to offend the king of Qingyang! The king of Qingyang is the closest to King Kang, after all, he is a relative of the emperor, after all, he is a relative of the Zhao family, if he dares to touch the king of Qingyang, it will inevitably make the kings of the Zhao family angry! You go down. ”
"Yes. ”
When the errand servant left, Shen Wei immediately passed the book to Ji Zhibai.
"Master Ji, the criminal officer will plead with you again, this time I will never say anything superfluous, only what happened. Here's the thing......"
After a while, Ji Zhibai asked, "You really didn't deceive this time?"
"No deception, no deception!"
"Good. ”
"Master Ji, Fang Yun is so arrogant, touching the interests of the wealthy family and the royal relatives and a large number of officials, why haven't you heard that there are people in the capital making trouble?"
"The Fa family, the doctor and others helped Fang Yun speak, which was expected, but I don't know why the Gong family also came forward, which made the wealthy families of various families dare not act rashly. The wealthy family did not move, and who would dare to speak indiscriminately among the emperor's relatives and officials? At most, those gentlemen said something to scold Fang Yun. ”
"Alas, it's really weird, I could have let Fang Yun plant a big ......" (to be continued......)
