Under this mentality, the empress never retreated!

If you do, I'll show you! Anyway, if you suffer a loss, can I still admit it? If you do, how will I mix it up in the future?

Yes, even if Lin Zifan was uncomfortable looking at her, the empress never opened her mouth to drive people away, but let this thing look at it!

But I never thought that this product would be looked at for a whole day!!

......

Early in the morning, the department.

Lin Zifan came to the department early in the morning, compared with a few days ago, there are more than a dozen people in the department, most of them are the existence of the nursing home, and there are also some craftsmen with good skills.

Continue to recruit people, this is also what Lin Zifan meant.

After all, the future development trend of the department, but how can no one do it if you master the core technology?

You can take the lead, but many of the following things have to be done, such as craftsmen and the like, naturally the more the better!

As for invention and creation, in this era, it is a little too demanding, and we can only recruit craftsmen and laborers in various positions first, and the rest of the people can only be slowly discovered and promoted.

Under the leadership of the Li sisters, a group of newcomers met Lin Zifan.

Of course, there are also people who have a little emotion, but this time, Lin Zifan didn't need to open his mouth at all, as the fifth gentleness of the 'Captain of the Guard', the first shot was directly a crackle and convinced the other party!

Fifth, gentle, I really like the department.

Not to mention that the wages are twice as high as those of the other six departments, and you can still eat delicious food! All of them are delicious food that you can't eat if you have money outside, and you don't have a place to buy it!

For a poor foodie, what better place than the department?

Yes, the fifth gentle is now extremely supportive of the department and Lin Zifan, who dares to say a word......? Come on, be reasonable~!

Whoever instigates who is granddaughter!

In addition, the fifth gentle talent is excellent, and among his peers, his cultivation is profound, so that even if others are not convinced, they will be subdued......

After all, in the eyes of Datang women, fists are the truth...... After reasoning, the losing side is naturally unreasonable and can only obey.

......

Inside the lobby of the department.

"Your Excellency!"

Xiong Chumo bowed his hand, and then said: "We have mastered the technology of composite manhole covers, and the collection of materials is almost over, but the money is ......."

She hesitated a little and said: "Let's go to the household department to apply for funding, but the household department said that the treasury is empty, and we need too much silver, so we must wait slowly......"

"I've thought of it for a long time. ”

Lin Zifan nodded, indicating that he had already thought of this.

"Our Datang is not rich, and the treasury is empty year after year, and the remaining six ministries, even if they are the Ministry of War, go to report the accounts...... Well, it's very difficult to apply for funding, not to mention, we have a newly established department?"

"Moreover, our consumption is only enough to scare the people in the household, right?"

"Your Excellency. Xiong Chumo smiled bitterly.

In the past few days, dozens of people have been recruited, plus the cost of manhole covers, clothing, and so on, which is already tens of thousands of taels, and even closer to 100,000 taels!

How much is the annual income of the Datang treasury? The consumption of the department is close to 100,000 taels of silver in a few days, and it almost scared people to death!

This is still the result of Lin Zifan subsidizing some of the people in the department, otherwise......

After all, Lin Zifan can't embarrass the empress, although he promised to give twice the salary to the people in the department, but this is his own business, but he can't let the household department give it like this!

Otherwise, once it gets out, what will the people of the other six departments think, and how will the empress deal with this matter?

Therefore, Lin Zifan is only ready to repay the part of the money they deserve, and the other half will be subsidized by himself.

"Then sir, can we still make manhole covers?" Xiong Chumo was a little entangled.

"Why not?" Lin Zifan chuckled.

Xiong Chumo muttered: "If you continue to do it, the money you need is only afraid of ...... We have to figure it out by ourselves, and the cost is ...... Very high!"

"The lower official suggests that it is better to wait for the money from the household department to come down ......"

"When will they allocate funds?"

Lin Zifan shook his head and smiled: "Keep doing it, I'll give this silver!"

Isn't it just money? Now in Lin Zifan's hand, tens of millions of taels of silver are piled up in the system space, so don't you need to keep the cubs?

The point is that silver can't give birth to cubs, right?

What's more, after the sewer, there is the water system, this thing, but it makes money!

When the time comes, the department will set up a water department or something, and I'm afraid that the money spent won't be recovered?

"My lord, you are really ......" Xiong Chumo sighed: "To be able to follow an adult, a person who is honest and honest, and selfless, is really Xiong Chumo's three lives!"

"Stop the sycophants, go to work! Within seven days, I'll see every sewer outlet in the city covered with a manhole cover!"

"Yes, my lord, the lower official is going to look for labor......"

The six ministries all have their own workers, of which the Ministry of Industry is the most, but Lin Zifan plans to use the temporary labor system......

Of course, there are also long-term workers, the so-called 'civil servants', but in many cases, temporary workers are better at work, aren't they?

Moreover, temporary workers are also very convenient, so why not recruit a group when things are too busy to come, and put them home in your spare time, without wasting more wages?

Although Lin Zifan has a lot of silver, it is not blown by a strong wind, and it is impossible to try his best to send money to people, on the contrary, he ...... And to make a lot of money!

Of course, the objects of wealth accumulation are more people from abroad, and as for the people of the Tang Dynasty, they just earn a little by the way.

Seven days, seven days, fleeting!

Among the departments, hundreds of laborers worked day and night to finally make enough manhole covers, and when the reconstruction of Datang Road was completed and the construction of sewers was completed, Chang'an was paved one after another.

Composite manhole covers are relatively cheaper than steel, but they are much stronger than rubber.

It is not as good as a steel manhole cover, but there is almost no danger of being stolen, relatively speaking, it can be called the best manhole cover in the current state.

Of course, this still can't stop the strong 'good (made) strange (death) heart of the people of the Tang Dynasty. One night passed, dozens of manhole covers were scrapped, and some manhole covers were missing......

In this regard, Lin Zifan also turned a blind eye.

After all, the notices have been sent, but there will inevitably be people who are more curious. All he needed to do was to repair the broken or missing manhole covers.

After that, as time goes on, everyone's curiosity gradually decreases, and the problem of manhole covers being destroyed or lost will naturally disappear......

And these days, the emergence of sewers has also made the people of Chang'an discover the benefits~
