Chapter One Hundred and One
Lu Wang quietly looked at Hu Saburo without saying a word, everyone fell into deep thought, Lu Wang naturally understood in his heart, this matter could not be said on the stage, a court military attache kidnapped a businessman for extortion of money, but suddenly died inexplicably, once it was spread, the court swept the floor, and the pressure of public opinion was definitely not smaller than that of later generations, as long as I don't admit it, they can't deal with me openly, as for playing black in private, will I be afraid!
"Brother Lu, this matter is a bit tricky, a court military attache was killed, no matter what he did before his death, but you are now a suspect, and there are so many accusations against you, it is not so easy to get out, of course, you can rest assured, they definitely don't have the face to say this openly, they can only play black hands and stumble! You have to be careful! Hu Saburo advised!
"Thank you Lord Hu for your concern, but, Lord Hu, you have to help your brother take care of it, my brother has to be busy with business and disaster relief every day, and I really don't have the energy to spend other things, so I will deal with the government, my brother will entrust you with full authority, how about five hundred taels of silver per month?"
Hu Saburo was overjoyed, "Brother, you take too good care of me, my brother's business is my business, my brother naturally doesn't say anything, I will definitely make a profit for you, but you are careful in private, this matter is not easy to fool the past!" ”
Lu Wang laughed, and Hu Saburo, who was looking at it, didn't know what he meant, "Lord Hu, 10,000 taels of silver!" You helped me settle it, and I told them, okay, if it doesn't work, it's a big deal to turn your face, whether it's black or white, try my Lu family's fear of them, try if my Lu family's artillery can blow up Hangzhou City, oh, by the way, Lord Hu, did you see those deep pits outside the camp when you came just now, and what do you think of the power of my artillery......
Haha, Hu Saburo suddenly laughed, and clicked Lu Wang a few times with his finger, "Goblin, goblin, okay, my brother will fight against this, if you can't resist it, it's a big deal that my brother will do it with you", and walked out of the camp with a meteor after speaking!
Looking at Hu Saburo's back, Lu Wang gritted his teeth: "Wait for me, once Lao Tzu's firearms and equipment have a scale, none of you are pun!" ”
"Young master, how do I feel that he knows that you killed people!" Ma Han looked at Hu Saburo who was going away and felt that he was smiling strangely when he left!
"Well, that's me letting him know that I killed the person, I won't admit it, what can you do, it's up to them to choose whether they want to turn their face or silver! My bottom line is only one of the two, if you want to kill two birds with one stone, then be ready to break your bones."
Although he was very sleepy, Lu Wang decided not to sleep, there are too many things to do today, the first thing is to send silver to the established group of officials, which is also said last night, in the case of his own guns are not in place, he has to use silver to pave the road, this is mainly because he feels that it is useless to ask for so much silver, in addition to paying silver, he can't use silver to eat, drink, Lazar and sleep, but there is no money in another space!
Lu Wang took Wang Dynasty and Ma Han to drive an off-road vehicle pulling tens of thousands of taels of silver, and under the gaze of the curious people, he began to go in and out of the streets and alleys of Hangzhou, he was sending silver, and his partners sent silver, yes, it was such a red fruit send, and the person who received it reached out and took it without concealment, anyway, everyone took it, and no one admitted that it was a bribe, we just helped this young master Lu buy something!
When Lu Wang was busy sending silver to each family, the four gates of Hangzhou City, as well as several prosperous areas in the city, Hu Sanlang's people have been posting notices everywhere, this is an announcement issued by the Hangzhou Yamen, such as mentioning that Jinhua businessman Lu Wang came to Hangzhou for disaster relief, etc., but the most important thing is the last one, the Lu family recruits workers, divided into two kinds, a kind of handyman, 500 people, in charge of food, one tael of silver per month, one kind of family, the number of people is not limited, the food and lodging, three taels of silver per month, no need to sign a deed of sale...... If you are interested, you can report to the Lujia camp on the shore of the West Lake.
This notice was a place, the whole city was in an uproar, and everyone talked about this businessman surnamed Lu in Jinhua who was so generous, not to mention how many people were recruited, that is, one or two taels of silver a month, three taels, all of which threw off the salaries of some civil servants in the city.
What is the most important thing in a disaster year, disaster victims! Although there are few wars in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, compared to Henan, Shaanxi and other provinces, it is like a paradise, but in line with the fact that there are poor people everywhere, coupled with drought and locust plagues for several consecutive years, and the foreign displaced people Luwang wants to recruit not to mention 500 people, it is 5,000 people, it is not a problem to recruit all of them within an hour!
Lu Wang, who was delivering the silver, naturally didn't know that the victims who had heard the news were rushing to his camp, but he wouldn't be surprised, after all, these bigwigs took his money and helped him get a job posting or something, which was also something that was discussed last night, not surprising!
Outside the camp of the Lu family by the West Lake, there was already a curious crowd of people, some of them were refugees, some of them came to see the excitement in the city, and of course there were also officers and soldiers who came to maintain order, and almost all of these officers and soldiers were Hu Sanlang's subordinates, there is no doubt that Hu Sanlang was determined to mix with Lu Wang!
Outside the camp, more than a dozen masters organized by the government are registering at their desks, whether they are workers or domestic servants, they need to register their identities, which is a mandatory regulation. Of course, such a lively scene naturally has very discordant things, such as more than a dozen people outside the camp kept crying and scolding the Lu family for being murderers and murderers, and there were old and young people in this group, some men and women, and when they scolded to the point of grief and indignation, they did not forget to pick up stones and throw them into the camp, and even wanted to rush into the camp, just to resist the peacekeepers.
But no matter how they make trouble, except for a small number of people in the city who watch the excitement and talk about it, the other people who come to be housekeepers and handymen don't bother at all, they are more worried about whether they will be selected for this problem, once they are selected, they will have a job, there is food and drink, not counting and a lot of money, where is this kind of good thing! Especially in this year, it's not easy to get a full meal.
Luvon was not involved in all this, because he was busy receiving a group of important guests, who were absolutely the best in the city, and the reception place was just outside the city!
In addition to the roar of the oil extractor, there were almost no other sounds at the scene of hundreds of people, and everyone was curious and whispered to look at the drilling machine in front of them and talk about something!
In this field, in addition to the high-ranking officials in Hangzhou, there are also people in the city and villagers outside the city, and they are all looking at a novelty, that is, the drought-fighting equipment mentioned by the rich businessman from Jinhua! Among these people is Zhang Yinli, the prefect of Hangzhou.
It only took more than 40 minutes, in the midst of everyone's exclamation, a well with a diameter of 10 centimeters spewed water, and Lu Wang immediately commanded the team to install a pumping machine and pull the water pipe, and suddenly the clear groundwater gushed out like a spring, and the crowd began to cheer, and the scene was like an exciting victory!
The prefect almost burst into tears, and stood up with one hand holding the Taishi chair under the pergola, with tears in his eyes: "Divine object, divine object, my Ming Dynasty is saved, saved, I, I want to write an excerpt to the emperor, I want to ......"
"Lord Zhang, don't get excited, listen to Xiaomin first, this is what I said about drilling machines and pumping machines, I am going to arrange fifty to one hundred drilling machines in Hangzhou, and dig wells day and night, but things like digging canals will be organized and mobilized by the government!" Lu Wang stood beside Zhang Yinli to appease the last prefect of Hangzhou Mansion in the Ming Dynasty.
"There is naturally no problem with this, you do things for the people, this is also related to their own belly, but I am afraid that the government will not come forward, and they themselves will rush to dig it hahahaha, it is really a divine thing!" Zhang Yinli's eyebrows danced happily, and he couldn't control his emotions at all! You must know that as the boss of a government, there are constant disasters and famines, and the people are not able to make a living, and what is more worrying is that one day the people will not be able to survive, so they will pull the flag and rebel like Li Thief, it doesn't matter if he is beheaded, the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years is really going to collapse!
"Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, I'll let someone show you the sprayer, this is an object specially invented for locusts, with him, there is no need to use people to catch insects at all, in fact, once the locust plague comes, manpower will not play any role at all!" Lu Wang waved his hand while introducing, and immediately more than a dozen team members wearing masks carried a sprayer full of water on their backs, turned on the switch and walked quickly in the field! Everywhere they went, locusts fell! Such a strange scene, not to mention other people, it is not a problem for Zhang Yinli's mouth to stuff three or four eggs at the same time at the moment! .
