Chapter 63: The son of the richest man
It's early July, nearly two months after Zhou Boqian's death.
For such a long time, Chen Feng has basically been doing three things, the first thing is to return the money and grain of the people in the county, the population of Qingxi County is nearly 130,000, and the drought and earthquake are added.
Nearly 10,000 people have died in the disaster, which is a very frightening number even in this era.
Because the earthquake is not as terrifying as imagined, it stands to reason that there should not be such a death number, but because Zhou Boqian and others are still exploiting in the face of natural disasters, they did not act after the earthquake.
caused many people who should not have died to die in the end, which made Chen Feng's heart very touched.
The second thing is to help the people rebuild the disaster area, the most severely affected village by the earthquake is Lingming Village, where Shen Ruxuan is located, the houses have collapsed very seriously, and even the foundations of many houses have been cracked, and it is very difficult to rebuild on the original village site.
Moreover, the terrain of Lingming Village was too poor, and countless houses and people were killed by rocks as a result of the earthquake, so Chen Feng finally decided to choose another place to rebuild Lingming Village.
This is a very money-consuming thing, Chen Feng naturally found Li Zhifeng and asked him to allocate funds, Li Zhifeng started to be an iron rooster, and also ridiculed Chen Feng for copying three family fortunes, and he was reluctant to take them out.
It is definitely impossible to get money from Li Zhifeng with the power of his tongue, since this is the case, then Chen Feng can only help Li Zhifeng with money.
Chen Feng learned from Huang Anfu that Li Zhifeng wanted to build a big mansion in the east of the county seat to spend the summer with his wife, and even bought the land.
So, Chen Feng secretly supported the villagers of Lingming Village, and rushed to that good feng shui treasure land and built a house.
For this matter, Li Zhifeng was also angry.
It is impossible for him to directly make a big move against a group of victims, so that the people of Qingxi will not listen at all, and the two sides have been deadlocked for a long time, and it has not been resolved, and the houses of the villagers have become bigger and bigger.
The third thing is the communication canal that was said at the beginning, although the weather in Qingxi has improved now, Chen Feng has not given up his plan, not just because he promised the people of Qingxi.
More importantly, by opening up the two rivers, we can prevent another tragedy like this year's in the future, which is for the benefit of future generations.
Today.
Chen Feng and his party returned from the countryside.
Because his own house has been completed and the new house has been completed, the so-called joy of housewarming is naturally to invite relatives and friends to be lively.
It just so happens that in the past two months, Chen Feng, Shen Ruxuan, Zhou Fu, and Xu Weiyang have not seen each other for a while.
Shen Ruxuan was naturally responsible for the reconstruction and relocation of his village, and Chen Feng, Xu Weiyang, Zhou Fu and Wang Yunchao also went to different towns and villages.
"Big brother, I miss you!"
As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, the little fat man Su Kezhi greeted him at the door, and rushed towards Chen Feng as he ran.
Chen Feng has not lived in his house for several days, and he has been by the Fuchun River for most of the last half of the month.
Seeing the gate of the mansion in front of him, it naturally couldn't be compared with the state capital Yuan Mansion, after all, he had told Su Kezhi that no matter how it was built, it must not be violated.
Even if almost all the officials in the world are violating the system, Chen Feng can't do it, he doesn't want to send some people to chew his tongue.
Rao is so, Su Kezhi personally supervised the construction of the courtyard also has the temperament of a wealthy compound, although the gate is not tall enough, but Su Kezhi has invested a lot in the materials, and the unique landscape in the courtyard is also readily available.
"I can't see it, second child, you still have the talent to be a designer," who doesn't want to have a house of their own, Su Kezhi helped Chen Feng fulfill this wish.
"Designer? What is it? ”
Chen Feng didn't explain, visited the courtyard, and asked, "Tell me, how much did I spend on this house." ”
Su Kezhi raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Feng dissatisfied, "Big brother, what kind of person are you and me, it hurts our feelings to talk about money between us." ”
"My brother still settles the score,"
Chen Feng put his hand on his shoulder and said: "I didn't have money before, but now that I have money, of course I have to pay you back, I can't always pit my brother's money as a big brother, you said that now I am also a celebrity in our county, how can I do such a thing." ”
"That won't work,"
Su Kezhi muttered: "I was going to repair the house for my eldest brother at the beginning, I didn't say anything about borrowing money, and eldest brother, you don't have money now." ”
"Who said that, your eldest brother and I copied Yuan, Hu and Li's three families, and I didn't give Li Zhifeng a cent, your eldest brother is definitely not poorer than you now."
"I don't believe it,"
Su Kezhi was very confident in this, and said: "Big brother, don't fool me, I have inquired, just you paid for the construction of the river, there are 985 construction workers, I have asked, 30 wen per person per day, 886,500 wen in a month, equivalent to nearly 900 taels of silver." ”
Thirty wen a day, don't feel less, this month has been nearly one or two silver.
You must know that on the average level of Qingxi, many people only break the sky in a year, and many people's consumption level is only more than one or two a year.
Therefore, Chen Feng prescribes thirty wen a day for everyone, which is already a high salary.
I only heard Su Kezhi continue: "In addition, tea and meals are also served, these are all imported from our family's Juxian Restaurant, our eldest brother requires three vegetarian and one meat, the dishes are fresh, and the dishes must be different every day, and they can't stay overnight, and the price will rise gradually, even if there are two meals a day for one person, it is also sixteen Wen." ”
"Then a month down is 472,800 Wen, equivalent to nearly 500 taels of silver, and the other is the tea money, due to the weather, the consumption is high when the weather is hot, and it will be better when it is cloudy."
"But our Qingxi has just passed the drought, and the tea is expensive, even if I calculate it by half, it will cost at least seven wen tea money per person per day, so it will be 6,895 wen a day, and 206,850 wen a month."
"Of course, my calculation is only theoretical, and there must be some fluctuations in the middle for various reasons, but the probability is not much different from what I calculated, and compared to the wages of the workers, food, and the stones and timber needed to repair the river that cost more, this is not a small number."
"In addition, there is also the reconstruction of the disaster area and the return of the money that the people of the county were squeezed by the state Boqian, I probably guess that the silver that the eldest brother copied from the three families of Yuan, Hu and Li should have spent seventy-seven eighty-eight."
Xu Weiyang, Zhou Fu, and Shen Ruxuan, who were following Chen Feng, looked at Su Kezhi in shock, because he said that there was such a long list of numbers, and there was no stop in the middle.
And just last night, Zhou Fu, who was in charge of helping Chen Feng manage his money, had already told Chen Feng that the wealth of the three families had been consumed.
"Second brother, are you idle, and you still take the time to calculate the money and food I have consumed in the past two months?"
"What, big brother, I just asked casually when I was in the restaurant, and now I casually tell you this, I know that you don't have any money,"
When he said this, Su Kezhi was very indifferent, as if this was a common thing, "We are all brothers who worship the son, why bother with me, and if it weren't for you, brother, I wouldn't be able to make a lot of money." ”
"Talent, worthy of being the son of the richest man."
This kind of mental arithmetic speed is not what talent is.
Recently, Zhou Fu has been complaining to him that it is too troublesome to manage money and food and other affairs, which has made him one head and two big, and he dares to use the wrong person.
