Situ Jin did not give John two or three days, but only gave him two hours to listen to him give a general account of the development of the firm in recent years. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although he had long expected that the firm would develop rapidly under John's leadership in the past two years, after listening to John's report, he knew that the development of the firm could not only be described as "fast", but could be called extremely fast.

Although John did not make the "Jinzi Wine" enter thousands of households on the mainland, but at the very least, the "Jinzi Wine" has won the general favor of the upper class people on the mainland, according to John, the courts of many countries will buy a large number of "Jinzi Wine" in the commercial houses every year.

Because of the large number of orders received every year, the original liquor workshops could no longer meet the needs of the trading houses, so John opened more than a dozen new liquor workshops in the empire.

These new breweries are several times larger than the old ones in terms of scale, and because they are well managed, all the workshops are very efficient, and in just two years, they have brought a staggering profit to the trading houses just by selling "Jinzi liquor".

Half of John's profits were used to rebuild and expand the firm, and the other half was used to invest in other popular industries, which brought in a large amount of income for the firm.

If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't seen Situ Jin, many things John would not have been able to make decisions on his own, and the firm would have taken a bigger step under John's leadership.

Listening to John's general description of the situation of the trading house, Situ Jin also asked almost all the questions in his heart, he suddenly took out a handful of green leaves from the storage ring, looked at John and said, "Look what this is?"

John looked down, looked at the green leaves in Situ Jin's hand, and said honestly, "Leaves!"

Situ Jin looked at Xiu who had been standing aside: "Xiu, do you know what this is?"

Xiu also carefully looked at the green leaves in Situ Jin's hand, and then raised his head and said, "Isn't it a leaf?"

Situ Jin smiled: "It's a leaf, it's not a leaf, to be exact, it's a leaf of a tea tree!"

"Tea tree?" John and Xiu looked at Situ Jin with puzzled expressions, obviously hearing the name of this number for the first time.

Situ said: "Yes, the tea tree is also a kind of tree, unlike ordinary trees, its leaves can be used to make tea, and its seeds can be used to extract oil!

"Making tea?" John and Xiu still looked confused: "What is tea?"

Situ Jin raised his hand to beckon the two of them to walk out of the military tent with him, and said: "Tea is a drink, drinking it can refresh the mind, brighten the eyes, and resist and defend against the virus, in short, there are many benefits!"

"And such a good thing, how come I've never heard of it before?" John said as he looked at Stuart.

Situ Jin smiled: "If you have heard of it, then what value do I find it to be?"

John's eyes moved slightly, and he began to make up his mind again: "If it's really as good as you say, boss, then I want to taste it, if it's really delicious, then I can promote this drink to the entire continent!"

"Haha!" Situ couldn't help but laugh: "You really don't leave your old business in three sentences!"

After speaking, he said: "But there is a fixed process and process for making tea, and now I am taking tea leaves that have not been processed, if you want to drink it, I'm afraid you will have to wait for a while!"

As the three of them spoke, they walked out of the tent, but their eyes flicked into the distance and a large group of ragged, refugees-like people were walking towards them.

Situ Jin looked at it, and at this time, Xiu's voice sounded in his ears: "Young Master, these people seem to be those horse thieves we met on the road when we returned here from the Continental Academy!"

Seeing that those people were stopped by the soldiers who were patrolling and standing guard around by Gao Wen, Situ Jin said to Xiu: "Xiu, go over and take a look, what's going on?"

Xiu nodded, turned and left.

After a while, Xiu came back, followed by a middle-aged man with unkempt hair, probably because of his long-term turmoil and frequent hunger, the man looked skinny, with prominent cheekbones on his face and sunken eye sockets.

"Young master, this person said that he had something to tell you, so I brought him over!" Xiu said to Situ Jin.

Situ Jin looked at the man, and the man also looked at Situ Jin.

After a while, the man's voice was hoarse: "You are Baron Situ?"

Situ Jin nodded.

The man said again: "I heard that the island opposite is your territory, do you plan to go to the island?"

Although he didn't understand why the man asked this, Situ Jin still nodded: "Of course!"

The man suddenly said: "We were hungry that day, so we stole your horse, and after you found out, not only did you not blame us, but also gave us all the horses, and the great kindness is beyond repayment, so let us build your territory for you!"

"En?" Situ Jin looked stunned.

The man said: "My name is Lu Wei, I don't hide it from my benefactor, I am an architect, and I have set up a civil engineering construction team by myself, specializing in large-scale engineering construction work. Two years ago, I took on a big project, but when the project was completed, the other party was afraid that my engineering team and I would leak the internal situation of the project and wanted to kill us.

After a pause, the man continued: "Because we were afraid of being chased and killed by the other party, we didn't dare to take the main road after escaping, and we didn't dare to enter any store to eat or stay. When the benefactor saw us stealing your horses that day, it was also because we were very hungry so we had to do it! Originally, I followed the benefactor all the way to see where the benefactor lived, and if I had the opportunity in the future, I would solemnly report the gift of the horse to the benefactor that day, but I didn't want to inquire from others recently to learn that the benefactor was the Baron Situ of the Yarrow Empire, and the fiefdom was on the opposite island of Erland, considering that there were no buildings on the opposite island, so we took the liberty to ask!"

Hearing what the other party said, Situ Jin was very happy in his heart, and secretly said that he really wanted to come to something, he was about to tell John to see if he could find an engineering team to build a city on the opposite island, but he didn't expect that a ready-made construction engineering team would come to the door.

Situ Jin stepped forward and shook the other party's hand, showing a rare look of enthusiasm: "That's really good!

After speaking, Situ Jin said again: "However, you have also seen that my conditions here are very poor, and now it can be said that there is nothing, before the city is built, I am afraid that you will have to live some hard life with us!"

Hearing Situ Jin's words, the man named Rune looked unhappy and said: "What are the benefactors talking about, if it weren't for the dozen or so horses that the benefactor gave us that day, we would have starved to death in the wilderness! Not to mention living a hard life, even if it is for our lives, it is just a matter of your benefactor!"
