Chapter 064

Ninghai City, garrison the left inner courtyard of the yamen, the left wing room, this is five wide houses, in fact, it is also an account room.

The decoration in the account room is divided into two completely different styles, one of the houses is Yang Yunniang's bedroom, she saw that Cheng Shijie had no thoughts about her, so she took Xiao Jiaxin to live in the inner courtyard. This bedroom and the outside suite, the two houses are about fifty square meters.

But she is exquisitely furnished, with a living room, bedroom, study, and bathroom. The floor is covered with white tiles, which looks delicate and warm. But the other three wings are arranged as a wide office, and the floor is made of gold bricks, which is a golden tile, which is very hard, and it is also an ideal material for the decoration of wealthy families, but it is more expensive.

The furniture is made of mahogany or pineapple wood, which is elegant and atmospheric.

At this time, there were more than a dozen bookkeepers sitting in the bookkeeper room, and these bookkeepers were very afraid of Yang Yunniang, the bookkeeper, they were secretly afraid, held their breath, and stared nervously at the tall table.

"Bang Bang ......"

Yang Yunniang's fingers quickly dialed the abacus, and the fingers flying up and down almost formed an afterimage on the abacus. For arithmetic and accounting, Yang Yunniang has an amazing talent. Nowadays, Ninghai City has dozens of factories, as well as the military salary, food and clothing expenses of more than 3,000 people in the Ning Navy.

All the running water is very amazing. In addition to the account keepers of each factory, there are hundreds of people, and Yang Yunniang has assigned them the corresponding dates for the accounts made by these account keepers, and will check the account books of more than a dozen account keepers every day.

These dozen bookkeepers are all veterans of bookkeeping and accounting, although these accounts do not require them to do a month, but such a large amount, they also need to do a few days. However, the problem is that Yang Yunniang can calculate the amount of calculations that took them several days of sleepless work to complete in just a quarter of an hour.

This kind of efficiency is a little scary.

Although Yang Yunniang was born in the rivers and lakes, he was born in a family of businessmen, and he grasped the abacus from the time he caught Zhou, and she was extremely talented in numbers. Later, in the middle of the family, she was taken in by her master Feng Sanniang, and she was even more of a successor to the mantle. It's just a pity that her master has been shrewd all his life, but he fell on the love word. Her master met Zhou Shichen and was deceived into having nothing.

Just when Yang Yunniang finished counting all the account books, her sharp eyes were fixed on a bookkeeper, and then the account book was thrown on his face: "Twenty-seven taels of silver, go back and find out, I know that you are an unintentional mistake, don't take it as an example!" ”

The bookkeepers were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated.

Yang Yunniang stretched her waist and was about to sleep.

Cheng Anning came over and said, "Yun Niang, my father-in-law fell asleep in the bathroom!" ”

Yang Yunniang looked at Cheng Anning and said: "This is not good, if the garrison catches a cold, it will be a big trouble, you go and call Qiao'er over!" ”

"She? Why her? ”

"Little hoof, don't think I don't know what you're thinking, don't let Qiao'er come over, can you lift the garrison?"

Jin Qiao'er happened to walk outside Yang Yunniang's door at this time, she sighed and said, "Yunniang, is this strength guilty?" ”

"Not guilty, but those who can work hard!"

Yang Yunniang looked at Jin Qiao'er's chest and muttered, "I don't know what to eat to grow so big." ”

Jin Qiao'er said unhappily: "You know how to bully me!" ”

"Hmph, I'm giving you a chance, if you don't want to, I won't force it!"

Yang Yunniang stretched out her hand and stroked Jin Qiao'er's face and said, "You can go back to Dengzhou and your Jin family." ”

"You ......"

"You get five taels of silver a month, and you are still wronged?"

It's a pity that the event that Yang Yunniang imagined didn't happen. In fact, Cheng Shijie didn't sleep deeply, and when the footsteps sounded, Cheng Shijie had already woken up.

asked Jin Qiaoer to hand him a bath towel, and Cheng Shijie put on the bath towel and returned to the bedroom.

Cheng Shijie is not stupid, and he knows what these women mean, but the problem is that he understands all these things, in later generations, girls like uncles, and Cheng Shijie also has a friend who has been wandering outside, only falling in love and not getting married, and his girlfriends have changed one after another.

When she got married last year, the bride was still a twenty-two-year-old girl, and his friend was fourteen years older than the bride, but he belonged to the uncle in the eyes of the girl.

Cheng Shijie knows that he has a wife, a son and a daughter, and once he does it some days, he can't turn back.

Paper can't hold the fire, unless he wants his wife to be separated.

A dreamless night, early in the morning, woke up to the screams of whipping Zhang Huairen.

Every morning, noon and evening, beating Zhang Huairen has become a daily routine, although it is not too heavy, thirty lashes a day, but it makes Zhang Huairen want to die, the problem is that even if he wants to die, he can't die.

Every day people look at him and want to commit suicide or self-harm, and they will immediately attract more serious beatings.

Now Zhang Huairen has changed, and seeing Cheng Shijie, he no longer dares to be arrogant, except that he wants to be added.

This scene, even the honest Chen Guodong couldn't stand it: "Lord Garrison, how did that guy provoke you, you can't kill people too much, give him a good time!" ”

Cheng Shijie did not explain to Chen Guodong.

Chen Guodong had no choice but to ask Cheng Shi to inquire.

"He, to say that he is a brute is an insult to a brute!"

Cheng Shi said indignantly: "Don't you know, there are more than 100 corpses dug up outside Zhangjiazhuang alone, and there are even more than a dozen that still maintain the tragic state before death, and none of the bones in the body are intact......

Without waiting for Cheng Shi to finish speaking, Chen Guodong snatched the whip from Cheng Shi's hand and whipped it towards Zhang Huairen.

Chen Guodong's strength was great, and he was full of hatred, and Zhang Huairen was directly fainted.

"Wake him up!"

This era is different from the later generations, the houses of the later generations are reinforced concrete, and it is impossible to construct in winter, but many houses in the late Ming Dynasty are wooden, and winter does not hinder construction.

New houses are being built every day throughout Ninghai City, especially outside the city, and when Cheng Shijie planned the outer city, it became a construction site.

As for the city wall that didn't even have a shadow, those merchants were not worried, because they all knew that the Ning Navy had strong combat effectiveness and strict military discipline, and the merchants could live in peace with them, as long as they paid taxes, they would ensure that no one would come to trouble. In particular, the business atmosphere here is good, there is no harassment from local ruffians and hooligans, and the military families are also rich.

In Ninghai City, as long as you have hands and feet, as long as your hands are not afraid of tiredness, you can easily earn money to support your family, and your small life is very nourishing.

Military households have money in their hands and have the ability to earn money, so naturally their spending power will come up, just like the mutton soup restaurant near Xiaonanmen, a bowl of haggis soup and two dough cakes can be sold for at least 300 bowls of mutton or haggis soup a day, and the gross profit is four yuan of silver, which is more than ten taels of silver in a month.

Of course, they need to pay taxes, and the net income can be as much as ten taels of silver, and the owner of the sheep soup restaurant made money, so he took a concubine.

In fact, ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty wanted to take concubines, which was very strict, unless they were nobles and scholars, or they either bought a false title of a foreigner or a foreigner, otherwise ordinary people were only allowed to take concubines when their wives were forty and there was nowhere to go.

Now, no one cares about it. Those merchants' wives and concubines are like clouds, and no one will ask.

Cheng Shijie came to the factory of the A Crossbow Bureau and found that a large number of crossbow machines had been produced here.

"The problem of beef tendon solved?"

"Solved!"

"How?"

Cheng Shijie asked this sentence, and he felt a little stupid, the businessmen and their men who are resident in Ninghai City have more than a thousand people, and the businessmen only pursue profits, not to mention beef tendons when they are profitable, even contraband can be bought.

Sure enough, as Cheng Shijie expected, the beef tendons transported by the merchants outside were all processed, and they were very good as crossbow strings.

Cheng Shijie picked up the finished product of a crossbow machine, the structure is not very complicated, the bow arm is three feet long, painted black, quite inconspicuous, but the materials are indeed quite sufficient. He pedaled on one foot and pulled hard, good fellow, it's so strong, he can barely pull it away!

You must know that Cheng Shijie's strength is already very good.

However, he found that this old craftsman, who seemed weak and not light, pulled the strong crossbow away with a hey, and then handed the crossbow machine to Cheng Shijie.

Cheng Shijie leveled the crossbow machine, half-knelt on the ground, squinting his eyes and aiming.

In later generations, the principle of three points and one line elementary school students knew that in this era it was the professional skills of professional soldiers.

The craftsman looked at Cheng Shijie's posture, took out two short crossbow arrows and handed them over, Cheng Shijie took the arrow and looked at it, the arrow was one foot eight inches long, about fifty-six centimeters. The tail of the arrow has a wooden feather with exquisite workmanship, but there is no arrowhead.

Cheng Shijie loaded the arrow into the chute, raised the crossbow machine obliquely, aimed at the wall in the distance and buckled the bracket, only to hear "Oh! A metallic trill, a strong back-down, made his body shake slightly, and the short arrow burst out, nailed firmly into the wall, two inches deep!

Chen Guodong was experienced, looked at it and said, "Lord Garrison, this crossbow is good, and the range must be more than two hundred steps...... Two hundred and twenty steps! ”

The crossbow arm of the crossbow machine is made by artificial forging, but there is no way to cast it directly, so the production speed is a problem.

Cheng Shijie was very concerned about the production speed and asked: "This crossbow is very good, how much can it be made in a day?" ”

"If you have enough materials, you can make 60 pieces a day!"

The crossbowman said excitedly: "We have already made two hundred and sixty bodies, and with the ones we have made today, we can break through three hundred!" ”

Sixty a day, six hundred in ten days, two thousand in a month. There is still not enough time.

"Can you hurry up!"

"Then you need to add people!"

"There is no problem with people, you can recruit, and strive to break through 200 bodies a day!"

Cheng Shijie is very urgent now, and he doesn't have much time now.
