0464 Juvenile Family
But Liu Gu didn't care about their ridicule at all, instead held up his chest with the handle of the knife in his hand and said, "Here is the first one in our batch to follow the second young master out to do things, and his ability is naturally reasonable!" It's the first place in the class! As for my parents, I am an orphan and was adopted by the second young master of my family! 「
The three girls were taken aback when they heard this, and hurriedly apologized to Liu Gu. Liu Gu said indifferently: "It's okay, I've been asking for food since I can remember, so you don't have to worry about it!" 「
In order to apologize, Tan Cuiying took some snacks from the car and invited Liu Gu and the soldiers behind him to taste them. But they clearly saw the longing light in Liu Gu's eyes, but he still refused on behalf of the five soldiers behind him, and then performed the duties of the guards one by one, looking at the three girls in amazement.
When it was almost time to rest, Liu Haojia took the lead on the road, and then a large number of Xungui convoys rolled away after him. At this time, Tan Cuiying and the three of them urged the carriage to follow, but they were soon left far behind.
However, the three girls were not bored on the road, because Liu Gu was too young to be constrained by etiquette, so the three girls also spoke to him generously through the car curtain, but they learned a lot of things that they usually didn't know.
Only then did they know that the three of them really underestimated Liu Gu! Liu Gu was adopted by Gu Ningbo's Mansion when he was eight years old, and it turned out that he was found to have an excellent talent for martial arts, so he was regarded as a key cultivator! It's a pity that Liu Haojia has too many places to employ people recently, and there are not enough people, so he has to send them out, which can be regarded as a long experience.
Tan Cuiying was sensitive, and she knew through Liu Gu's narration that the children adopted by the Liu family were not a small number, so she was a little worried and knocked on the side, but Liu Gu saw through it! He said very calmly: "You just have to rest assured, the second young master said hello to the long live master when he adopted us!" Even the number of people, what they are good at, and what they are doing now are all reported in the East Factory. 「
The three girls were relieved after listening to Liu Gu's answer, so they chatted and hurried along the way, which was also very comfortable.
As for Liu Haojia, he acted very quickly, first rushed to Tianjin to settle the other nobles, and after the handover, he asked people to prepare ships. He still has a big business to do overseas. But before leaving, I naturally had to say hello to Miss Zhang. Because he can't say that it will take a month to come back.
Miss Zhang didn't say anything when she knew about this situation, and personally cooked a meal for Liu Haojia to see him off. The two chatted while eating, and naturally talked about their respective affairs before and after chatting.
As soon as she talked about this matter, Miss Zhang's eyebrows fluttered! Because recently, Jingshi Bank has just completed an industrial upgrade! That is, between Beijing and Tianjin, you can withdraw money in other places with a silver ticket!
To say that remote withdrawals are not absent in the Ming Dynasty, but they are rare. But that's not the point, the point is that the technology of silver ticket printing has been upgraded! And this matter was handled by Miss Zhang, and Liu Haojia did not interfere.
The new silver ticket uses a new method from the beginning of the raw material to the final production! All kinds of materials and all kinds of processes have been tried, and it has been a long time before it has been completely successful!
Miss Zhang finished speaking and signaled to Cailuan, Cailuan nodded and turned around to open the cabinet, took out a tray from the cabinet and put it in front of Liu Haojia. Inside the plate were four silver tickets three inches wide and half a foot long, on which were written, five taels, ten taels, fifty taels and one hundred taels!
Liu Haojia was immediately interested when he saw these silver tickets, reached out and picked up a fifty taels of silver tickets and shook it casually, only listening to the "click" sound of the paper, which shows that the paper is on the road! Then use the thumb to twist thinly, you can feel the uneven lines on the paper! In particular, the mountain peak on the most central pattern feels like a stubborn stone, and there is a sense of layering on top of each other!
Then he saw that there was a blank space directly below the silver ticket, and he looked at the light in his heart, and sure enough, it was a watermark! It looks like a cash cow! It can be seen that the original painter was a master, and the strings of copper coins on the branches of the tree were crumbling, as if they would fall at any moment!
Liu Haojia took a look at other aspects and found that it was really delicate and nuanced, which would definitely cause great difficulty to counterfeiters! So he finally exclaimed, "Good, good
Good! It's really a good thing, the girl has worked hard, and she has worked hard!"
Miss Zhang proudly introduced to him and said, "The watermark of five taels is just an ingot, the one in ten taels is a cornucopia, the one with fifty taels is a cash cow, and the one with one hundred taels is a pixiu!"
Liu Haojia picked it up one by one and looked at it, and it was really as Miss Zhang said. And this watermark is very beautiful and exquisite! Liu Haojia praised him and put down the silver ticket and said, "I'm afraid that the girl here has put a lot of effort into it, when did you start to prepare?"
Miss Zhang said proudly, "From the moment you told me that you planned to open Jingshi Bank all over the country, I started to recruit craftsmen! However, the new silver ticket is too difficult to make, and it took so long to calculate the results, but fortunately, it will be used immediately in time for the opening of the sea in Tianjin!"
came out and interjected on the side, "Uncle, this thing is something that Miss has been watching from beginning to end! If nothing else, the maid is watching from the sidelines and knows how to make paper!"
Liu Haojia was moved when he heard this! You must know that papermaking and printing is a difficult, dirty and smelly job! It already takes a lot of courage for a fragrant lady to step in, and it is even more remarkable that she can follow one process after another, and she can also make achievements!
So Liu Haojia immediately comforted and praised Miss Zhang, but in the end he still said with concern, "Where is the place to make silver tickets?"
Miss Zhang knew what he was worried about, so she said, "Brother, don't worry, this place for making silver tickets is in our Zhuangzi in Henan, where we are guarding it, absolutely foolproof!"
Liu Haojia knew which Zhuangzi Miss Zhang was talking about, and he was talking about the Zhuangzi that the Liu family adopted orphans. Now there are many orphans in that Zhuangzi who are collected and sent in every year, and many people who have completed their studies and come out to join Liu Haojia every year!
The original farmer in the Zhuangzi is now loyal! Because although the Liu family collects rent normally, it is more subsidized in turn. The most important thing is that the Liu family will also receive their children in the school and cultivate them, and they will definitely not be blind in the future! This alone makes the dealers grateful to Dade!
