Volume 1: Conquest of the Quartet Chapter 35: Recruitment
"Young master, why do you say we are going to find workers? We have no mineral deposits, and we have no land, even if it is a blacksmith shop, we have enough people, not to mention, one is worth one hundred and eighty people, how can we hire people?" Shi Youshan asked.
Indeed, as he said, the parts made by the people under Shi Youshan's hands are hundreds of times more accurate and efficient than ordinary workers, which Ye Wuye sees in his eyes.
"In fact, hiring people is not the point, the point is to collect the heart. Ye Wushen said, "Only in this way will they embrace us, and even join us as a part of us, so that we can gain a foothold in Nanzhou City, just imagine, if the people of the whole city support us, will those families still move us? They are just by squeezing these people to make huge profits, I think they should not do such a thing as killing chickens and taking eggs." ”
"Why don't you just fund some potential businessmen and let them do business? Isn't this kind of popular support coming faster?" Jiang Ruyan was puzzled.
"Silly girl," Ye Wu shook his head, "This is certainly efficient, but it also has great disadvantages." ”
"Yes, blindly giving will only make them feel that what we are doing is a matter of course, and once we fall or have a tendency to fall, they will mercilessly abandon us and seek another master. Qiu Kui nodded in agreement, obviously he had experienced this.
"There's a bazaar ahead, so it's all serious. Ye Wu reminded.
"Yes!"
Baili Street, compared to the Yiling Street in the inner city, is really a bit shabby, it is no exaggeration to say that if Yiling Street is compared to a prosperous city, it is not as good as the rural vegetable market, all kinds of miscellaneous small merchants and vendors in it are gathered here, and the sound of people bargaining and selling on the street is endless, making the whole street seem extremely noisy, but all this is after Ye Wu's arrival, return to silence.
"Look at what kind of clothes this man is wearing, gold silk satin! There are dark golden flowers embroidered on it, I don't know which family in the inner city is the son. ”
"How did the rich people of the inner city come here?"
"Look, the two girls next to him are really good-looking, and they have the same taste as me. ”
"Mother... Those two sisters are so beautiful......"
"Mother... Those uncles are so scary! I'm afraid ......."
“...”
In the face of these miscellaneous discussions, Jiang Ruyan was okay, she was used to seeing big scenes on weekdays, she looked dignified and elegant at the moment, but Ye Ling was different, he blushed and lowered his head a little embarrassed.
Ye Wu is completely different from the two of them, he has always been calm along the way, coupled with the more than 20 people behind him who are like wolves and tigers, which makes his identity even more mysterious.
The horse walked on the dirty ground and stepped on the ground, and the pedestrians in front of them also consciously gave way of the way.
"Sure enough, there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor here. Ye Wu looked at the groups of men and women beside him, and his brows couldn't help frowning.
Some of the people around him were dressed too shabby, most of the old and young were wearing shabby coats, and some of them even had leaky coats, so they were still unwilling to throw them away, wearing them on their bodies, this situation fell into Ye Wu's eyes, which made him think back to his childhood slum in his previous life, only to see him sigh softly, and when he walked to the center of the street, he suddenly stopped.
As more and more people gathered around to watch the excitement, Ye Wu suddenly opened his mouth unexpectedly and shouted, "Do you want to get rich!"
As soon as Ye Wu's voice came to mind, the originally noisy atmosphere around him instantly quieted down, and everyone was speechless, and their eyes were a little overwhelmed.
As if expected, Ye Wu shouted again: "Tell me if you want to get rich!
The second time, there was still silence and the pins were falling.
Seeing this, Ye Wu took a deep breath, then took out a whole piece of gold ingots from his arms, raised his head and said, "Whoever answers my question first today, this gold ingot is his!"
As soon as these words came out, the pot suddenly exploded like hot oil splashing water, and the surrounding discussions were one after another, some people were about to speak, but more were skeptical, and some of them even sneered at Ye Wu.
The voice was chaotic, but no one stood up to answer Ye Wu's question, which showed how untrusted the powerful people here were in the eyes of these civilians.
Ye Wu shook his head a little helplessly, it seems that this method of lifting Mu Lixin will not work for the people here.
He was just about to take the ingots into his arms, but at this moment, a man's shout suddenly came from below.
"I! I want to get rich!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere of the scene suddenly froze, and then there was an uproar, everyone looked at this person in unison, and the discussion was endless.
"There are really people who are not afraid of death. ”
"Yes, he doesn't want to think about what the nobles of Nanzhou City are, how can they care about our life or death? ”
"Alas, okay, don't look at it, be careful of the pond fish, let's go. ”
“...”
With everyone's eyes, Ye Wu looked up, only to see a person appearing in front of him, with a crooked mouth, a hooked nose, and a pair of mouse eyes looking at Ye Wu from time to time, isn't this the Sanxi who guarded the city gate before, Sanxi's face was pale at this moment, one arm was drooping, and he was obviously injured.
"Here you go. Ye Wu casually threw the gold ingots in his hand and threw them to Sanxi.
Sanxi was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly caught the gold ingot, and thanked him again and again, he was not afraid that Ye Wu would deceive him, after all, with the identity of the other party, there was really no need to deceive himself as a nobody. Even if he put the gold ingots in his pocket, the smile on his face couldn't stop popping out, and at the same time, the pair of rat eyes were looking back and forth, for fear that others would have bad intentions about what he was carrying.
This scene can be said to be seen by the people around them are red-eyed, their eyes are staring at Sanxi, just like a hungry wolf who has not eaten for a long time sees its prey, at this moment they don't mention how much regret, regret why they didn't speak earlier at that time, let this opportunity to make a fortune in vain to others.
"I want to too!"
I don't know who in the crowd shouted like this, it doesn't matter if this shout is like a chain reaction.
"Take me one!"
"I want it too!"
“......”
"Yes, there are three ways to get rich, the first is to strike iron. Ye Wu paused, "We provide materials, technology, and stoves, as long as you can give me the same thing as I said, I will buy it, the price of each object is different, the lowest price is four yuan, if there is a better quality person after the identification is true, the price will be doubled, and the maximum can be increased by twenty-five times!"
A big, honest-looking man crossed his fingers, and he couldn't figure out how much twenty-five times it was for a long time, he scratched his head and poked the thin man on the side and asked in a low voice, "Twenty-five times?" ”
After hearing this, the thin man gave him a blank look, and then said a little angrily: "Stupid to death, you don't study well and now regret it, right? Let me tell you that the four texts have increased twenty-five times! That's half a silver ingot! It's enough for our family to eat up and down for a year!"
"Hey, brother, how many people are in your family? Pigs? This money will be eaten in a year?" One person couldn't help but complain when he heard that the thin man could spend half a piece of silver in a year.
The thin man was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "Uh... There are no more, no less, just twenty-eight people in the family. ”
“...”
Looking at the people around him, Ye Wu nodded with satisfaction and paused before speaking: "Second, if you have strange ores or clues about ore veins that no one occupies, you can find us, and after verification, we will give them huge benefits, starting with ten gold bars!"
As soon as these words came out, the following was like a fried pot, and you and I discussed it word by word.
"Oh my God! Ten dollars at the minimum! It's still a gold bar! More than the families gave!"
"Yes, those iron roosters, not only will they not get the money for giving them the address of the ore vein, but they will also be beaten. ”
"That's right, my cousin-in-law's eldest nephew was given an arm discount because of this incident. ”
"Well, I don't know if what he said is true. ”
"I think it's a little hanging, don't worry, watch first. ”
“......”
"That'...... What is the third rule of this son?" I don't know who asked the question that everyone was desperate to know.
"As for the third, that is the exam, I just ran a private school here, but only twenty-eight people, and the age must be within ten to twenty years old, the private school will be assessed every month, the top ten each person two pieces of silver, the top five each additional reward, the first three each on the basis of the former additional two pieces of silver, the first place on the basis of the previous in the additional three pieces of silver, of course, if you want to join there is an assessment, the minimum standard is to be able to read. ”
Ye Wu pointed in a direction behind him.
"If you are willing, go to the blacksmith shop of the two brothers of the Mo family to sign up, male or female. ”
As soon as the words fell, the crowd dispersed in a hurry, rushing towards the direction designated by Ye Wu.
"Hurry!"
"Don't squeeze my ......"
“......”
Seeing so many people echoing, Ye Wu was overjoyed.
"So many people they must be busy, go, go and help. He beckoned.
"Good!" everyone nodded.
But at this moment, Ye Wu's eyes suddenly stared at the group of people who were leaving, because just now he felt a fierce gaze in the crowd, and the hatred contained in that gaze made him tremble.
"Young Master?" Ye Ling looked at Ye Wu's back as Shi Youshan left and was silent for a long time, and said with some doubts.
"It's okay...... It's just that in that group, I felt a pair of resentful eyes in the crowd looking at me...... Am I overly worried?" Ye Wu came back to his senses, waved his hand and chuckled.
Ye Ling followed Ye Wu's gaze, and as far as his eyes could see, there was no one.
"Probably not...... The young master met them in the water...", she said.
Ye Wu rubbed his temples.
"Listen, the identity of the applicants must be strictly checked, don't let some ill-intentioned people get in, and write down everything that is unclear or vague to me. He said.
Everyone nodded.
