Chapter 253: The First Reform Idea
"Who slandered?"
Zhu Di said angrily, "If you enter your mother's crushed chili peppers that have always been money, you black-hearted thief will directly accept 900 yuan!"
Take a scale, you still have to warp so high......
As for the pepper seeds, you is darker......"
Hearing this, the faces of the farmers changed greatly, and they hurriedly looked at Sun Chengdu.
And Sun Chengdu was even more furious.
"Noble people don't want to talk nonsense? The villain is the steward of the Yanwangfu caravan, and he comes all the way to these remote villages to buy goods, how can he harm and deceive these farmers?
Although the villain is just a small steward, His Royal Highness King Yan's reputation cannot be slandered, otherwise even if the identity of the noble person is respected, he will be punished by the Yan Palace! ”
"Really?"
Zhu Di sneered.
"It's natural...... Yes! ”
Before he finished speaking, he was directly punched in the face by Zhu Di.
"Into your mother, you dare to mention King Yan as a dog? King Yan asked you to harm the people like this?
Dog thing, why do you represent King Yan......"
Under the shocked gaze of everyone, Zhu Di knocked Sun Chengdu to the ground with a punch, and then rode on Sun Chengdu, which was directly a punch.
As for the surrounding caravans, they wanted to come forward to help, but they were directly stopped by Li Wang and others.
And the people retreated again and again with frightened faces.
With so many people watching, only Zhu Gaochi was the only one, who kept shouting with excitement on his face, "Hard, Dad, hard, beat him hard!" ”
It wasn't until Sun Chengdu's voice gradually lowered that Guo An hurriedly spoke to stop him, "Please spare his life, this dog thing is so skilled, he should have been greedy for a lot of money in the past two years, and he needs to review it carefully!" ”
Only then did Zhu Di get up, "What Guo Qing said is extremely true!" ”
"Your Highness?"
The people around them, after hearing this, immediately looked at Zhu Di with a shocked face.
On the side, Guo An slowly took off the hat on his head, "You folks, don't be frightened, and you don't have to think about secretly going to report to the official, for fear of retaliation from the Yan Palace."
The person in front of him is His Royal Highness King Yan and His Royal Highness the Prince of the World! ”
"Guo Changshi?"
"It's really Guo Changshi, I've seen Guo Changshi several times, I won't admit it, this is really Guo Changshi!
So, then this one is really His Royal Highness King Yan? ”
After the people recognized Guo An, they immediately bowed down to Zhu Di with excitement on their faces.
"The grass people see His Royal Highness King Yan, see His Royal Highness the Prince of the World! I've seen Guo Changshi! ”
"The grass people see His Royal Highness King Yan......"
"Rise up, everybody."
Although the fierce look on Zhu Di's face has disappeared, the farmers are still trembling with fear.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Zhu Di nodded slightly, and then looked at Sun Chengdu, the steward who was lying on the ground and looking at him with a frightened face.
"I don't believe it, you are not His Royal Highness King Yan, how could His Royal Highness King Yan appear in such a remote village?"
"Phew!"
Zhu Di's face was full of fierceness, "We don't come out, I don't know that you dogs, borrowing our name, actually hurt the people like this?" ”
"Tell me honestly, how many people have you harmed?"
Sun Chengdu's eyes widened, and his mouth kept trembling, but he couldn't say a word.
Zhu Di was furious again.
Guo An hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid this guy is scared and stupid...... Let the guys around you finish the follow-up peppers first, and then go back and interrogate him well and check his accounts! ”
"So, for the time being, listen to what Guo Qing said, spare this dog's life!"
Zhu Di glared at Sun Chengdu viciously, and then looked at the guys around him.
"What is the purchase price of chili peppers set by the steward of the government?"
"Your Highness spares your life, these things are the responsibility of Steward Sun, and we are just following orders."
"Your Highness, as for the price, we are all listening to Steward Sun......"
A group of men hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy with panicked faces.
Zhu Di said with a fierce face: "In this way, a pound of crushed chili peppers is always money, and a catty of chili seeds is worth four dollars, and you will buy it at this price."
In addition, re-weigh the peppers and chili seeds of those farmers just now, and make up for the shortage!
You are not allowed to warp the scales again, and you are not allowed to deceive the people, or we will wait for ......."
"Yes, Your Highness, the villain obeys, the villain obeys......"
The guys hurriedly answered.
Seeing that these guys were still kneeling in place in a daze, Zhu Di urged with disgust on his face: "Why don't you go and make up the money and weigh the goods?" ”
"Yes, yes......"
At this moment, these guys woke up like a dream in an instant, and hurriedly got up to work.
"Thank you, Your Highness King Yan!"
"Your Highness's Mercy ......"
Around, the farmers were suddenly full of gratitude.
Zhu Di said loudly: "Don't worry, this dog thief dares to use our name to bully you, and we will never forgive him."
In the future, if anyone dares to oppress you like this, you should come to us!
Or, go find Guo Qing, Guo Qing will definitely give you justice!
We will never forgive those dogs, the neighbors and villagers will cheat, it is really better to ...... animals"
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Yan! Thank you Guo Changshi! ”
A group of farmers responded one after another.
Zhu Di asked again: "Do you know that among the caravans under our Yan Wangfu, which caravan is like this dog thief, bullying and deceiving the people?" ”
"This ......"
The people hurriedly thought for a while, and then replied: "Thank you for your concern, Your Royal Highness King Yan, there is no other caravan." ”
"That's it!"
Zhu Di nodded with some reassurance.
And this time, with Zhu Di and Guo An watching from the sidelines, those guys not only did a very good job, but also did not have any problems.
Soon, more than 20 households in a village sold chili peppers.
Every household has at least four more dollars in their hands.
All the people were full of joy.
With so much money, they can't earn it for two months.
All the villagers spontaneously sent Zhu Di, Guo An and others out of the village.
The young man who was guarding the carriage at the entrance of the village, when he saw Steward Sun, who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, couldn't help but change his face greatly, and with a 'bang', he directly pulled out a steel knife, his face full of vigilance.
"Bastard, what do you want to do?"
Li Wang and a few Yan King guards directly surrounded him.
On the side, the faces of those guys also changed greatly, and they hurriedly reminded: "Six catties, this is His Royal Highness King Yan!" ”
"His Royal Highness King Yan?"
Liujin hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
"The villain didn't know that King Yan was coming, and I ask His Royal Highness for forgiveness!"
Zhu Di didn't blame, "Get in the car and go home with us!" ”
"Whoa!"
The guard Liujin hurriedly got up.
……
In the car.
Zhu Di looked solemn.
"Guo Qing, how many caravans does my Yanwang Mansion have in these seven counties and four states in Beiping Mansion?"
Guo An thought for a while, and then said: "Back to Your Highness, there should be more than thirty!" ”
"More than thirty?"
Zhu Di's eyes widened directly.
"How can there be so many?"
Guo An said: "Back to Your Highness, there are grain trading houses in my Yanwang Mansion, as well as cotton workshops, wool workshops, and now chili peppers, plus the goods that need to be supplied to the Goryeo fleet......
Therefore, our Yan Wangfu has the most caravans in these states and counties in Beiping Mansion. ”
Zhu Di worried: "In this way, will they all deceive and harm farmers like this?" ”
Guo An said: "Your Highness's forgiveness, it was Wei Chen who thought it was too simple. I didn't expect them to be so excessive? ”
Zhu Di asked: "If they really harm the people one by one, how is Guo Qing going to deal with it?" ”
Guo An said: "Your Highness, Weichen still thinks that he should investigate carefully before he can draw conclusions." ”
However, in order to prevent these caravan stewards from wantonly harming the people, the subordinate stewards of the caravanserais need to be rotated every other month.
In addition, the government needs to set up a special inspection office to investigate the lawlessness of the caravan and officials, and if one person is found, there will be a reward.
In addition, the punishment of those officials in charge should be increased, such as if it is found that any steward or official dares to wantonly harm the people.
If it is light, all its property will be confiscated, and its evil deeds will be announced to the public, and recorded in the evil book of my Yan Wangfu, and the next three generations of descendants will not be reused, and they will not be able to enjoy the various benefits of my Yan Wangfu.
If it is serious, you can exile him to Goryeo, or he can have his house and his head killed......"
"Good!"
Zhu Di nodded in agreement, "Even the villagers in their own country are pitted, and the livestock are not as good!" ”
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Zhu Di looked through the car window and saw chimneys emitting white smoke.
"Guo Qing, what is that?"
Guo An looked in the direction and said, "Your Highness, that's the chimney of the brick kiln." ”
"Brick kiln?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, "This is also the workshop in our house?" ”
Guo An slowly shook his head and said, "Your Highness, it should be a wealthy family or a gentry nearby." ”
"Huh?"
Zhu Di was stunned, "The gentry's family actually came to build a brick kiln workshop?" Don't they feel ashamed? ”
Guo An glanced at Zhu Di strangely, "Your Highness, as the King of Daming Yan, you seem to have built a lot of workshops in the past few years. ”
Zhu Di smiled slowly, "The workshops built in our house are all done by Guo Qing, and they are all beneficial to the people. ”
Guo An said: "Your Highness, the workshops they built were also encouraged by Wei Chen. ”
"Why?"
Zhu Di couldn't help but look strange.
Guo An understood what Zhu Di meant, so he explained slowly: "Your Highness, Weichen thinks that it is impossible to rely on the strength of my Yanwang Mansion alone to make Beiping Mansion prosperous.
And now, my Yan Wangfu has been leading for so many years, and I have also made a lot of money.
Nowadays, those gentry and clans in Beiping Mansion should also know that relying only on the fields and books they control, they can only live a life against their conscience and oppress the people.
Even, he will be scolded by many people.
However, by building workshops, they can bring those people to make money, and they can also earn dozens of times more money than they can occupy and cultivate the fields.
Such a favorable thing, as long as Weichen explained it to them, coupled with the leading demonstration of Yanwangfu, some enlightened gentry also followed Weichen's advice and began to build workshops! ”
Zhu Di's eyes lit up, "Can you make a lot of money?" ”
Guo An said: "Your Highness, as the people of Beiping Mansion gradually begin to become rich, there are still so many businessmen coming and going to my Beiping Mansion.
In the past two years, there will inevitably be many people in my Beiping Mansion who need to build houses.
The best masonry houses!
In addition, some of the wealthy gentry wanted to build workshops, or they had other needs......
In this way, our Beiping Mansion will definitely lack a lot of masonry......
Therefore, as long as they can make good quality masonry, they will definitely make money. ”
Zhu Di asked: "Then do I have a masonry workshop in Yanwangfu?" ”
Guo An replied: "Back to Your Highness, we have also built a brick kiln workshop in the Yan Palace. It's just that brick kilns need a lot of labor if they want to fire a large number of bricks and stones of acceptable quality. This kind of laborious and laborious workshop is better given to those gentry and wealthy households! ”
"Let's eat meat in Yanwangfu, give them some broth, and after they taste the benefits, they will spontaneously start to pay attention to the affairs of businessmen!"
