The job of carrying bags at the dock is to calculate the money according to the weight and number of times the goods are carried.

In terms of carrying rice bags, each bag of rice weighs about one stone, that is, about 100 catties, and each bag is carried to the warehouse, the owner gives ten copper plates, deducting two intermediary fees, and leaving eight coolies.

Normally, those who work as coolies at the dock can basically do a bag of about 100 catties of rice.

However, if you carry it five times in a row, your physical strength will drop and your speed will slow down, so you usually do this kind of heavy physical work, and you can carry it twenty times at most, which is terrible.

You must know that it is not an easy errand to carry it from the ship, and you have to walk more than 1,000 meters to the warehouse.

The physical exertion along the way alone is a big problem.

On weekdays, if there is not enough oil and water in the stomach, and it dries for a long time, the body will naturally not be able to stand it, and the person will slowly become wasted.

Therefore, no one is a fool, most of them know in their hearts, not that the family is really in urgent need of money, and they generally come leisurely.

After all, just earn that few dollars, it's really exhausting and exhausting, and even the medical expenses are not enough, not to mention the lack of food, who wouldn't calculate this account?

Usually, it's fine when there are not many goods shipped, but now that winter is about to begin, millions of people in the entire god are consumed, and the supply around the neighborhood is not enough at all, and most of them are transferred from other places.

When the river freezes in winter, the goods cannot be transported by ship, so they are transported by land.

Reserve less, for businessmen, making less money is no different from losing money.

So, who wouldn't want to make a few more trips and earn a little more money.

But there are too many cargo ships at the dock, and the place is so big, there has to be a first come, first come, first come, right?

Once the time is delayed, the goods such as rice are okay and can be stored for a long time, and other vegetables and the like are not fresh after a long time, but they will be discounted.

Not to mention that some goods are limited in time, and you may lose money if you are a quarter of an hour late, how to make people not in a hurry.

No, when he saw that Zhang An was so capable, a smart person immediately found the dock manager.

"Zhang San'er, come over here."

Zhang An had just finished carrying a bag of rice, received a bamboo stick to record his work, and was about to continue carrying the next bag, when he was stopped by the steward of the dock.

"Steward Yao, please give me instructions if you have something."

Steward Yao, a thin-faced man in his early thirties, looked Zhang An up and down with a pair of squinting eyes, and his mouth was full of slurp.

"Tut, Zhang San'er, I didn't see it."

"Why, I was sick and reborn?"

The corners of Zhang An's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a smile: "Steward Yao, you see, once I was sick, my family owed foreign debts, if you don't have any instructions, I will continue to work." ”

Steward Yao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and he didn't care about Zhang An's disrespectful words.

For him, a coolie, no matter how capable he is, it is too embarrassing to deal with him.

Moreover, if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, there is the face of the drunken Vajra Ni Er, what do you have to do with him.

"Okay, just know how to make money."

"This steward asks you, can you still carry an extra bag at a time?"

"Can it be faster?"

Zhang An's eyes lit up, and he suddenly pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Steward Yao, it's okay to carry two bags at a time, and the speed can also be improved, but you also know that if the physical consumption is too large, and the nutrition cannot be supplemented, the body is easy to waste..."

Without waiting for Zhang An to finish speaking, Brother Yao waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't you just want to add money, this is easy to do." ”

He pointed to a wealthy middle-aged man standing next to him and said, "Let me introduce you, this is the money manager of the Xue family's Xue Zi Shendu Branch in Jinling, and now the money manager will tell you." ”

Steward Qian said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, time is tight and the task is heavy, so the old man will speak bluntly." ”

"Speak, please."

"No matter what the price of your work at the dock is, from now on, as long as you dare to work hard, you will carry an extra bag of goods each time, and you will take the original salary, and the old man will also give you a hard fee of ten cents per package of goods."

"In other words, the more you work, the more you earn, understand?"

emmm, what else is there not to understand about this!

Zhang An smiled: "Then it's a word!" ”

"It's a deal!"

"Mission: Carry two bags of goods at a time. Publisher: Money Manager. ”

"Accept" or "Reject"

After taking over the task, Zhang Anxin said that he would earn another task reward for nothing.

He doesn't care what the two stewards have in mind, in his opinion, it is natural to work and get money!

Hehe, I originally wanted to let people find out slowly, but I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.

He didn't mean that he wanted to climb the Xue family in order to find out what the future would be.

Who doesn't know that among the four major families in Jinling, the Xue family is a big fat sheep, and anyone can bite it.

In addition to a little money, even a historian who doesn't have much plot is not as good, what future does he have when he climbs with the Xue family?

He just took this opportunity to expose his strengths, as long as there is traffic, is it not a matter of time before he develops?

The girl at home said that it is necessary to become famous as soon as possible!

If you have a chance, if you don't have a chance, you have to create an opportunity!

"Come, give it to me!"

"Here's another pack!"

The workers of the Xue family's fleet put another bag of goods on Zhang An's other shoulder at the suggestion of the money manager.

When the others saw it, they were shocked.

"Hey, Zhang San, this kid, shouldn't it be a different person, compared to him, what are we?"

"Hey, tired of this stupid boy, stupid one."

"That's right, don't look at the joy he is dancing now, wait for two more trips for you to see, it will definitely be a soft-footed crab."

"It's really a young man, the money is in his eyes, and he is not afraid of taking money and spending it!"

"Wait, you see, I didn't see dazzles, did I?"

"Oh my God, this, this, fake, right?"

"It must be fake, maybe those two bags are full of cotton! Otherwise, why would he carry such a heavy thing and still run so fast? ”

"You're going to try it, cotton? What kind of bullshit are you talking about? ”

"Okay, work hard, do you have too much money in your pocket to spend it, and you can get the money to see if you can get it?"

"Hehe, it's interesting, I have something to talk about in the evening."

"I'm going to see if there's really going to be a truth in our coolies, well, the tigers!"

"If Zhang San, this kid is not wasted today, he will definitely develop in the future, tsk."

“...”

One, two, three...

Zhang An is like a ruthless robot, running back and forth, as if he is robbing money, no matter how tired he is, he will act as if he is nothing.

At the beginning, everyone was still waiting to see his jokes.

But slowly, they were all slapped in the face.

This Nima's, what kind of ruthless man!

No, just Zhang San's small physique, who has been working at the dock for a year, who doesn't know who, why did he suddenly change so much?

The strange things at the dock soon spread into the streets and alleys of Shendu with the spread of people, and after ten and ten, Zhang An also had a new nickname - Iron Man Zhang San!

Imperial Palace Qianyuan Palace.

Emperor Longzheng was instructing the court to play a fold, sometimes frowning, sometimes scolding, so frightened that the little eunuchs trembled, and they didn't dare to raise their heads.

At this moment, an old eunuch who was bowing down and carrying something quietly entered the main hall in small steps.

"Emperor, this is the ginseng wolfberry soup sent by the queen's mother, and I tell you to take care of the dragon body. You see? ”

When Emperor Long Zheng heard this, he put down the fold in his hand angrily, rubbed his eyebrows and said.

"Let's put it on the table first."

Emperor Longzheng eased his nerves, and while drinking the soup, he asked, "Tell me, what's new today?" ”

Xia Shouzhong already knew Emperor Longzheng's habits, and said with a smile when he heard this: "Emperor, there is really something new about a slave who is about to tell you today." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, let's talk about it, which minister was caught and raped by his daughter-in-law, or which kid from the noble family got into a fight?"

Xia Shouzhong didn't care about Emperor Long Zheng's ridicule, who told him to usually report on this matter.

"Back to the emperor's words, a minion heard a news today."

"It was said that there was a very capable boy at Xicheng Wharf, and someone with good deeds gave him the nickname Iron Man Zhang San."

Emperor Longzheng suddenly perked up when he heard this.

Listening to the tattered things of the ministers or the noble family all day long, I have long been tired of it, and now that there are new things, it can be regarded as relaxing my nerves.

"Oh, Iron Man?"

"Dog minion, do you have to wait for me to urge, speak quickly."

"Well, the minion will continue to talk."

“...”

After a long time, Emperor Longzheng ordered: "Go, give me..."
