Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Zhu Di held Yang Shiqi's recital in his hand and read it casually for a while. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!)
Immediately, his face became stern, and he said lightly: "Jinling is too calm, the calm is a little too much, Yang Shi said that today's recital is blank, it seems to be ...... It is not suitable for me to stay for a long time, so I don't have to stay along the way, and I go back to Beijing directly. ”
Zhu Di threw away the book, and his flickering eyes were a little dignified.
That is, in the past few days, the holy car left Langshan, Xi County Commander was greatly relieved, the holy car is here, it is indeed a tangled thing, I am afraid that the service is not good, and I am afraid when I accompany the drive. But gone, Xi Xianling's heart was a little empty, after all, he still didn't fall into the eyes of the law, although the monarch played a few times, but Zhu Di's attitude towards him was indifferent.
It can be seen that he is afraid that he will stay for a while longer.
However, Xi County's order is now busy enough, and tens of thousands of captives have now all been camped by the Hao family. Although these people are actually under the care of the Hao family, Xi Xianling feels that he has an unshirkable responsibility, for fear that something will go wrong, and he worries about labor every day.
That Tongshan set, is the focus of Xi County's order, not that he has any interest in buying and selling, but since the victory of Langshan, the businessmen rushed in, in this panhuan, countless outsiders gathered here, will inevitably cause many disputes, businessmen came, the mountain people large-scale downhill trade, will inevitably bring countless three religions and nine streams, Xi County order is afraid of accidents, since the great victory, coupled with the presence of His Majesty here, here has already become a hot spot of countless people's attention. This hot spot, even if the holy car has left, will not relax for the time being.
So. Xi Xianling knew that if there was the slightest mistake here, someone would continue to amplify it in various names, and it was also possible that he would want to cover it up for some kind of will.
Borrowing the question to wave, it has always been like this, in this officialdom. How could Xi County Ling not understand that the only thing he could do was to put this question one by one. It is completely annihilated before it is born.
Therefore, after the daily case, he found an excuse, saying that he was going to the copper mountain to go to the copper mountain and be in this copper mountain fair. He saw a lot of new things. For example, the good ironware on the car, the mahogany furniture that the county order is a little moved, and the cloth has been sold recently, the texture of the cloth is just average, and the only advantage is that the price is not high, and it can even be said to be cheap to the point of fingers.
Such a price has also attracted a lot of businessmen. A large number of stockpiles, the reason is actually simple. After all, the common people are the majority, and the cheap and practical things are not worried about not being able to earn silver after all.
Lang Son cloth has now become a hot commodity, with more orders and more inspections.
The cloth on the market is often 770 yuan per horse, but here, the price is cut off at the waist, only more than 300 yuan.
It is really instructive to be able to push the price to this point. The secret is also ridiculous, on the one hand, it is improved in the existing skills, and after combining the strengths of each family, the level of the loom has been slightly improved. What's more important is large-scale production.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there were not many specialized weaving workshops, mainly concentrated in the south of the Yangtze River, and most of the places were still in the stage of male cultivation and female weaving and self-sufficiency. Even if there are some workshops, mostly silk making, but not weaving, and Langshan is also a precedent, you need to know that in this world, the larger the scale of production, the lower the cost, take the purchase of cotton as an example, if there are small businessmen a year to buy fifty catties, the price, naturally there is not much leeway, a catty down, let alone sixty or seventy Wen, but if someone buys five thousand catties a year, but it is another matter, the price of fifty Wen also has room for negotiation.
In addition, there are too few people to weave on a small scale, and it may take one person a day to complete a piece of cloth. However, once large-scale production, there will be a division of labor, some people specialize in drawing, some people specialize in weaving, and some people catch printing and dyeing, each person, only responsible for one process, the proficiency is greatly improved, the yield is increased, and the production time is greatly shortened.
Therefore, a large number of low-cost Langsan cloth has now become the target of businessmen, and it has also attracted many cloth merchants from all over the world.
What Xi County Ling saw and heard, made him instinctively a little difficult to accept, after walking so many times, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, this Langshan everyone is talking about all kinds of business experience, so that many Langshan natives, it seems that they have also begun to move their minds, a very small number of local gentry families, originally he Xi County Order governance and education of the local dependence, and now, are also a little stained with 'copper smell', Xi County Ling even feels that if this continues, it will inevitably change people's minds, thinking of this, making him a little uncomfortable.
The county commander went to Tongshan every three or five times, in fact, he may not be doing it himself, his actions are nothing more than an attitude, people's attitude is there, these people in the county have figured out his preferences, so the county errand has to run there diligently, and dare not slack off.
As the number of merchants increased, the road to Langshan became cold. In fact, Langshan is barren, but the road is much better than the ordinary state and county, it is nothing more than after the southern expedition, here has become a grain road, the imperial court has carried out some repairs here, coupled with a large number of cars and horses to pass, the dirt road is constantly compacted, the so-called people walk more, it becomes the road, the traffic of Langshan can be described in all directions.
It's just a pity, such a road is okay, really to press the cart up, once it encounters rainy weather, the road will be muddy excessively, it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch, so the responsibility of building the road, it falls on the long history of Wu Xiong, fortunately there is manpower here, what Wu Xiong has to do is to communicate with the firecrackers who stay here, let them send some people every day, press people to quarry, and then crush the stones, the size of a goose egg, and order people to pave a layer of gravel on the original dirt road.
At first, these captives still needed to be escorted, but Wu Xiong understood that this was not a long-term solution, and he began to pay attention to finding some of the captives who were powerful or reputable, improving their treatment, and then letting them manage the captives.
Gradually, a group of foremen began to take shape, although these people were from captives, they ate better than ordinary people, and they also had some money to take, and they did not do any heavy work every day, but only carried whips and sticks to supervise, so naturally, they became Wu Xiong's right-hand man.
In fact, even if there was no foreman and a fire team to take care of them, the vast majority of people did not dare to escape. They were originally prisoners on death row, and they were innocent and forgivable, and it was extra gracious to be able to survive. Once you escape, there is nowhere to go, Annan's side, now it is reported that the official army is suppressing the people's rebellion everywhere, and Daming's place has a strict household registration, can you get away with hiding for a day, can you hide for a lifetime? Incognito, it is absolutely impossible, even if it is through checkpoints, intersections or ferries, you need a guide, once you escape, there is a dead end.
Besides, it's not bad here, although it's hard, there is always something to eat, people will always subtly change themselves, at first, it may be difficult for people to accept, but later, it will slowly become numb.
To build bridges and pave roads, in ancient times, the most needed was manpower, but materials, can be collected on the spot, in addition to providing some necessary food, other costs are not much, and the current Lang Mountain, the least lacking is manpower.
However, this trend continues, and it is also a little bad, because manpower is squandered, and in the long run, it is also overstretched, and people are needed to build bridges and pave roads, and many apprentices are also selected from the workshop, in addition, there are canals and civil engineering, which consumes a lot.
If you have people, you must have a shelter from the wind and rain, and if you have people, you will have shops, and these need to be built and quarryed.
Wu Xiong is already a little struggling, so many people, so many things, it is difficult to complete it by him alone, he has to find some helpers, so he sent a letter to Hao Fenglou, and after being recognized by Hao Fenglou, Wu Xiong began to look for some candidates, this guy has now made a long history, a new look, the whole person has a little bit of official authority, speaking and doing things, and gradually becoming subtle and cautious, although he treats people as kindly as always, but in the harmony, there is a little alienation that rejects people thousands of miles away.
In any case, he is already an official, and those who become officials can always adapt to their roles quickly.
In Lang Son recently, the most ambitious is the Prince Chen, the Son of Heaven has made a promise to send someone to follow him to Thang Long, and it has been very clear that he will be appointed as the king of Annam, Thang Long, some of the former ministers of the Chen Dynasty are also in this rebellion at this time, and have received enough benefits, and now they have also entered the court, and Prince Chen ascended the throne.
A big stone settled in his heart, and Prince Chen's whole person even felt much lighter. But then, he had a headache, and the Great Tomorrow sent someone to convey a message intentionally or unintentionally, asking Annan to be responsible for rewarding the Hao family.
The Son of Heaven has been particularly concerned, and Hao Fenglou is indeed outstanding this time, if it weren't for him, where would there be Annan today, so Prince Chen immediately realized that this reward, in a sense, is like the Central Plains Dynasty to make a statement, and the amount of reward may become a certain standard for the Son of Heaven to judge him.
Nowadays, many places still need to rely on the Ming Dynasty, of course Prince Chen does not dare to slack off, he is silent, and he is not in a hurry to mention this matter, but carelessly, he has already calculated, now is not the time, but ...... Maybe this thing ...... You can take advantage of it.
