Zhao Hu was so angry that he patted his head and lectured, "Idiot, idiot, why did I choose such a stupid thing as you to manage the shop?" There are huge shops, there are not even a few fine linen cloths, and the burlap is still scattered from the local area, and you know that there are people here who weave linen, why don't you let the guys go to the countryside to buy it? How good is it to buy in batches and batches, you buy it at a low price in front of the customer, and then you turn around and raise the price and sell it on the shelf, are you a fool to be a guest?"

Zhao Hu said a "fool" and patted his head, and the steward was so frightened that he knelt on the ground again, and repeatedly admitted his mistake: "I know it's wrong, Lord Lang, I, I'll change it?"

Zhao Hu took away his hand that was a little numb, looked at him expressionlessly, and said, "Are you asking me?"

The steward shook his head again and again.

Zhao Hu stared at him gloomily and said, "Also, think about it with your pig brain, since there is a shortage of cloth here, and there are few cloth merchants, can you open a veritable cloth village, collect all the hemp from the top and bottom of this Chen County, ask someone to weave it, and then sell it to other cloth houses?"

"Can you ask someone to grow mulberry and silkworms, and weave silk for me next year!" The last sentence Zhao Hu shouted out directly.

If it weren't for the lack of manpower he brought this time, he would have to take him to Luoyang, and he would have wanted to change this steward directly.

Zhao Hu huffed back to the county guard's mansion.

When he returned to the county guard's mansion, he paused, turned around and went to find Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming's speed in handling government affairs has always been fast, he is well-read and has a strong memory and strong work ability, and the official documents handed over can basically be handled at a glance, and there is no need to think about it again and again, so he works half a day every day.

So he's sitting in the garden pavilion right now...... Filial piety.

is filial piety, he is playing chess with his father.

Zhao Hu strode into the pavilion and was disgusted, "Zi Nian, your county guard is too simple, not to mention my courtyard, it is your hall, there are not a single beautiful ornaments, not even a single calligraphy and painting."

There were before, but since Zhao Ming decided to advocate frugality, he has put it all away.

He said coldly, "I am poor, not richer than Uncle Seven."

Zhao Hu sat next to Zhao Song and smiled at him flatteringly, before saying, "It's Chen County's poverty, no matter how poor your father is, it won't shorten your use."

He said, "Chen County is poor, just sell the land."

Zhao Hu just made a start, Zhao Ming knew what he wanted to do, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at the other party, he was not surprised, but curious: "What does Uncle Seven want to buy land to plant in Chen County?"

Zhao Hu said: "I want to buy a few pieces of dry land, just level some of them, plant hemp and mulberry trees when the time comes, and then find people in the nearby villages to distribute the silkworm seeds to the villagers, so that they can raise silkworms and peel hemp for me."

You don't need to open a workshop, just cooperate directly with the nearby villagers, things like silkworm raising, children and the elderly can also do it, and things such as peeling hemp are mostly done when the farm is slack, just hire short-term workers, which is much more cost-effective than raising long-term workers and buying people.

Even the twine and linen weaving can be directly contracted to the farmers, just cooperate with the local Lizheng, give Lizheng some money when the time comes, and avoid the need to appoint stewards.

However, linen cloth can be simpler, because most women can spin hemp and weave linen, and silk and satin are different, silk is very valuable, and when the time comes, you have to get a workshop and ask the weaver to do it. ….

"I still have to buy a few pieces of fertile land," Zhao Hu said, "When the time comes, these people will have to eat and drink, so they can't buy from outside, because it takes too much effort to transport grain from Xiping, and the road expenses are also a lot, so they have to grow it themselves."

He said: "Since they are all planted, let's plant a little more, isn't Luoyang short of food, just right, the output here can be sold to Luoyang, and I will open a grain shop here......

It was perfectly planned.

Zhao Ming nodded again and again, and couldn't help but praise, "It's still Uncle Seventh who thinks thoughtfully."

"But there is one thing to remind Uncle Seven, Han Zhang ordered that all the displaced people who have been collected, regardless of men and women, as long as they are over the age of fourteen, can be allocated five acres of fertile land, five acres of dry land, you buy land, dry land is repaid, planting hemp and raising silkworms can hire nearby villagers, but the cultivation of fertile land needs people from beginning to end, where do people come from?"

Zhao

Hu hummed, "If you want me to say, Sanniang is too soft, how can she be so good to the homeless?"

"But you don't have to worry about this, I can get someone."

Zhao Ming narrowed his eyes, "Seventh Uncle, if you forcibly buy slaves, once it is verified, the yamen will take people over for free to restore their good records."

For example, Shi Le, who was once turned into a slave, if he met Zhao Hanzhang at this time, once it was verified that the slave who was bought and sold was a good citizen and was bought and sold after being taken captive, then no matter who the buyer was, as long as it was within the jurisdiction of Zhao Hanzhang, then he could directly cancel the slave and restore the good name.

Then you can choose to return to your hometown, or you can choose to settle down in the field.

At present, most of the freed slaves choose the second type, because the first type, they do not know whether they will be taken into slavery again on the way back to their hometowns.

Zhao Hu used to buy such slaves because they were cheap.

He had co-operatives, some soldiers of the garrison, or gentry, who would form groups to go on the road to capture the wanderers who passed by, and then sell them to him as slaves, which was much cheaper than buying people on the main road.

It's a pity that this business is now yellow.

Zhao Hu snorted and said, "Don't worry, I won't let your yamen take advantage of this, I can recruit people."

He glanced at Zhao Ming, and said with some smugness: "Not everyone is willing to lead the five acres of fertile land and five acres of dry land in your yamen."

"There are still more fools in this world, and there are always some people who can't see the long term, and they don't want to suffer so much ahead," he said, "With ***, in addition to being a slave, what is not better than being a slave? I will provide them with two meals a day to prevent them from starving to death, and there will be a monthly routine every month, and your yamen, except for the first ten days of food, if you want food and cloth for the rest of the days, you have to go to work for relief, and you will have to open up wasteland, dig water conservancy and build roads, but it is much harder than farming for me."

But following Zhao Ming is a good citizen, as long as he survives for half a year, the first crop of grain will come down after half a year, and life will slowly improve.

And the accumulation of being a good citizen is getting better and better, as long as there are no wars and fewer natural disasters, the days will definitely get better and better, not like slaves, it may be the same for decades, and you can see the head at a glance.

But Zhao Ming glanced at Zhao Hu and had to admit that he was right, there are always fools in this world, who can only see the little bit of the ground on the tip of their toes, and each person has his own creation.

Zhao Ming is not the type of parent who has to feed every bite to the child's mouth, so he is very open-minded and said, "Since Uncle Seventh has decided, let's go and choose the land."
