Chapter Ninety-Nine: Assessment

Zhou Hao is the eldest grandson of the Zhou family, and according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, he is the future patriarch.

However, it also depends on his own wishes, because as long as he is a descendant, he will have a chance to choose before he becomes an adult.

For decades, there have been countless eldest sons, and the eldest grandsons are unwilling to stay in the ancestral hall because of their different interests and hobbies, and live a life that can see the future, and have carried out various resistances.

Later, the imperial court revised the Da Ming Law, stipulating that as long as they are descendants of the lineage, they can choose their own life before they reach adulthood.

As long as the eldest son is voluntarily not the patriarch, he can choose other sons in the lineage to take over.

The eldest son, on the other hand, had to move to other continents.

The descendants of the Zhou family are relatively normal, and there has never been such a sect, after all, the ancestral residence close to Ying Tianfu must be much more prosperous than other places.

Zhou Hao did not go to university, graduated from iron ore secondary school, studied mining, and now works as a technician in an iron mine near Yunshan Village.

He is burly and has a good temperament, and he already has a marriage contract, but the woman will only turn eighteen at the beginning of next year and set a wedding date for next summer.

A son like him who can stay in Zhongzhou is very popular on the woman's side, even if he is not strong, the woman will deliberately climb relatives in order for her daughter to stay in Zhongzhou, and she will often get engaged at a very young age.

Hearing him say hunting, Zhou Bei became a little interested, and asked with a smile: "How many prey are there in the back mountains?" ”

Zhou Hao said with a smile: "Yunshan is just a branch, there are only hares on the mountain at most, and there are very few pheasants. However, after the reservoir, there are a lot of prey, but the road is not easy to walk. ”

Yunshan Village did not exist, it was a pond. In the eighteenth year of Yongle's development of the Ma'anshan iron mine, residents were relocated, and all-round surveys were also carried out in the surrounding mountainous areas.

According to the mountainous terrain, a dam was built above the pond to collect the water flowing from the mountainous area into a reservoir, and Yunshan Village was built on the west side of the dam.

When Zhou Bei came back this year, he still played in the reservoir, and the scenery here can only be regarded as quiet.

However, on the other side of the reservoir, there are large bamboo forests, streams, valleys, beautiful scenery, and a sanatorium has been built on the mine.

Zhou Bei stretched out his hand and hugged his shoulders and asked with a smile: "There seems to be a gun ban in Zhongzhou, do you have a gun?" ”

was hugged by Zhou Bei, and Zhou Haoden was excited. "Zhongzhou only prohibits short guns, rifles, and guns, otherwise, there are so many prey in the wild, how to deal with it. There were two shotguns at home, one for each of us. ”

Zhou Bei didn't want to be watched as a national treasure at home, and he was immediately moved. "After dinner we'll go hunting."

Although he knew that he was deliberately climbing, Zhou Bei felt good about him.

The four generations of the Zhou family are in the same house, although the grandparents are alive, they are old and have no problems, and the position of patriarch has also been passed to Zhou Bei's uncle.

Zhou Feng, the uncle of the Zhou family, is fifty-nine this year, his eldest son Zhou Qian is forty, and his eldest grandson Zhou Hao is twenty.

Zhou Feng gave birth to five sons and one daughter, and died of a son, except for Zhou Qian, the other three sons all moved to other continents, and only one daughter married to Jiaxing Mansion.

Zhou Qian has a wife and a concubine, and has six children, all of whom are currently underage and still around, so the Zhou family is still a populous family in Yunshan Village.

At noon, more than 30 people sat at four tables, and the family was about to separate when they grew up, and the old man and the old lady hadn't seen their children and grandchildren get together for a long time, so they were so unhappy.

Zhou Bei wanted to go hunting in the afternoon, but he didn't drink, and the old lady was reluctant to let him go, and wanted to keep him by his side to talk, but the old man said a few words.

Although he is old, he is not stupid, knowing that this grandson has a high status, and there will definitely be villagers who will come to make friends in the afternoon.

This kind of thing is handed over to Zhou Feng, and Zhou Duo will handle it better.

In the afternoon, except for Zhou Hao and Zhou Bei, the hunting team became longer and longer, and when they entered the mountain, there were sixteen people.

Even Zhou's mother and sister-in-law followed, and they took their children to play on the west side of the reservoir, and there were seven people who entered the mountain.

So many people only have two guns, and it is better to say that it is hunting, but it is better to say that it is an autumn outing.

Along the way, Zhou Hao has been following Zhou Bei's side, chatting with Zhou Bei about the interesting stories of Ying Tianfu, so that Zhou Bei's understanding of the corresponding Tianfu is more profound.

Their topics are as they please, but they have been developing around all aspects of Ying Tianfu's various forces.

Zhou Bei also liked this kind of small talk, and finally simply gave the gun to Zhou Xi and asked him to take the others to hunt, and he and Zhou Hao kept chatting in the pavilion by the reservoir of the sanatorium.

At dinner, Zhou Bei accompanied the elders to have a few drinks, and after the meal, he talked with his grandfather, uncle, and father about the topic in the afternoon.

Zhou Bei also told them about the various people he had contacted after coming to Tianfu, as well as the preparations for the current laboratory.

The one-to-six share taken out by the laboratory is very popular, except for the Jinyiwei Li family, the Guangcheng Bo Zhang family, and the Hancheng Bo Liu family, which have been determined, and the remaining shares have been hotly pursued by many families.

However, this matter was determined by Zhengde and dealt with by Mrs. Wang, and it has not yet affected Zhoubei's side.

Zhou Feng couldn't help but ask Zhou Bei. "In Heng, just one into six, there are already three families involved, will it not be enough to distribute?"

Zhou Bei shook his head. "One into six is a lot, according to Mrs. Wu's assessment, the price of each cent has been set at about 100,000 silver coins."

Everyone's eyes widened, especially Zhou Gan, who couldn't help but ask: "One cent is 100,000 silver coins, isn't that this laboratory worth 10 million silver coins now!" Our mine has seven or eight mines, with tens of thousands of workers, and produces tens of millions of tons of iron every year, which is worth only 20 or 30 million silver coins. ”

In Daming, a silver coin can buy 300 catties of rice and more than 200 catties of flour.

According to the price of goods in another world, a silver coin here is equivalent to six or seven hundred yuan.

Of course, this is also related to the cheap price of grain in Daming.

According to the comprehensive conversion of the prices of other essential commodities, the purchasing power of a silver coin is equivalent to about 200 yuan in 2019.

Ten million silver coins are equivalent to an appraised price of about 2 billion yuan.

A mine is not much if it is converted into four or five billion, and a laboratory that has not yet been established is indeed a lot when it is converted into two billion.

However, the land and factory building of the laboratory have now been completed, and the value there will be hundreds of millions.

More importantly, the participation of the research institute has greatly raised the evaluation price of the laboratory. What's more, the laboratory already has a production authorization program for more than a hundred new goods.

Although Zhou Duo knew that his son was very powerful, the laboratory he was preparing now was worth tens of millions, and Zhou Bei accounted for fifty percent of it, wouldn't his net worth already be five million silver coins!

He was stunned for a long time before he sighed: "Zai Heng, then you have a fifty-percent share in the laboratory, will it be too conspicuous?" Your Majesty's ......"

"Daddy, rest assured, Your Majesty has no intention of objecting, otherwise, the child would have been summoned to the palace a long time ago. Besides, this matter has not yet been decided, and it will not be decided until at least the beginning of September. ”

Zhou Duo was a little worried: "Don't be greedy, the share of fifty percent is too much, you have to think carefully in Heng......"
