Because he didn't stand high enough on the ground, Su Yu simply rode on the war horse, and then the whole person stood on the stirrups.

In this way, it is both high enough and low enough.

Gently urging the reins, Su Tuo came to the middle of the street.

Thousands of people quickly made way of a road, allowing Su Yao to come to the middle of the road.

All eyes were on him.

Lin Li immediately took a straight horn and handed it to Su Yu.

Su Yu glanced at the audience and said loudly: "Fathers and fellow villagers, you have watched me grow up. ”

"A few years ago, I came back from the southern battlefield in a gloomy way, and then I passed the civil and military double solution yuan, trained into the new army, the battle of Yangzhou, negotiated with the British, and recovered Jiangxi. I have come step by step, and all of you have witnessed it. ”

"I am the son of my father, but I am also the child of the parents and villagers in the capital."

"Today, I must know everything to my father and fellow villagers, and I will say everything, and there will be no half a lie."

"So, if the folks have any questions, just ask."

Suddenly, a person said in a loud voice: "Su Dashuai, I heard that you have been raising money recently, you want to set up a factory, why do you want to set up a factory, what are the benefits of this factory?" ”

This is considered a scholar, but he has no fame.

This is a difficult question to answer.

You tell them about industrial power?

You told them that only by opening a factory can you not be bullied by foreigners?

It's useless, and the people's wisdom has not been opened.

Su Yu smiled: "Uncle, this cotton shirt on your body is quite magnificent, how much does it cost?" ”

The old man said: "It's very expensive, this body is a whole one or two dollars of silver." ”

That's really expensive, but a normal cotton shirt also costs about 600 to 900 wen.

Su Yu said: "Uncle, how long will it take to buy a new set of clothes?" ”

The uncle said: "The seasons are different, and the clothes are different, but the same clothes will take several years to buy a set." ”

Su Yu said: "After setting up a factory, a better set of clothes than yours may only cost about 400 yuan, do you think this is good?" ”

The uncle said: "This, of course this is good, after setting up a factory, such a good clothes, can the price be six or seven percent cheaper?" Just three or four percent of the price now? ”

Su Yu said: "Yes, I bought a shirt three years ago, and after I have a factory, I can buy new clothes every year, is this good?" ”

"Good, good!"

Su Yu said: "Folks, do you know about the frosting?" It's sugar. ”

"Know, know ......"

"This white sugar is expensive, a pound costs more than 100 yuan, it's rare to eat it once a year, who is willing to eat it."

Su Yu said: "Folks, is this frosting good?" ”

"Of course."

"It's delicious, it doesn't get any better than that."

"It's not only delicious, it's also good for the body, it's cold and dizzy in winter, and a bowl of sugar water goes down, and the whole person is fine."

Modern society has no feeling for sugar, but feels that it is redundant and unhealthy to eat too much.

But in ancient times, white sugar was not just a luxury, but also a tonic.

Because of insufficient nutrition, it often causes low blood sugar, causing dizziness, and drinking a bowl of sugar water for the whole person is fine, so everyone thinks that this is a rare tonic.

In fact, thirty or forty years ago, many rural children in our society also relied on sugar water to treat low blood sugar.

Even in modern society, sugar is a strategic commodity.

Su Yu said: "After having a factory, the price of this frosting may not even be half." ”

Then, Su Yu's voice raised: "Of course, after having a factory, the biggest benefit is that everyone can make money." ”

"Everyone knows that it's too hard to find a job and you can't make any money. Fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys, can't find a job, they are idle all day long, they can't even find a daughter-in-law, and if they don't have a daughter-in-law, they can't give birth to a baby, and the whole family will be cut off. ”

"After having a factory, everyone has a job, and a young man can earn three taels of silver a month."

As soon as these words came out, everyone exclaimed.

A month, three taels of silver?

Su Yu said: "This is still the lowest wage, and it includes food and accommodation." How much money you make, you have saved it yourself, and with this money, I am afraid that I will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law. ”

"So everyone said, is this factory good?"

The crowd shouted, "This factory is good, this factory is so good." ”

Su Yu said: "Everyone has heard that I raised this silver just to set up a factory. It is to let everyone eat well, dress well, use it well, and let everyone have money to earn. ”

"But this factory hasn't been set up yet, I can't ask for silver with white teeth."

"For the people of my Qing Dynasty, what is the most precious, of course, it is fertile land. As we all know, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the land of fish and rice, and the farmland there is the most expensive and the best. ”

"But because of the rebellion, Jiangxi was very miserable, and many people died, so a lot of fertile land became borderless."

"I'm going to set up a factory, and I need a lot of money, so what should I do?"

"We, the governor of the yamen, will sell these ownerless fields. For the price of fertile land in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, everyone knows that seven taels of silver is one mu. We want to bless all the people, so we pay half the price, seven taels of silver and two acres of land. ”

"But many fathers and villagers are in the capital and can't go farming, so what should I do?"

"Our government recruits people to farm the land, and the income from the planting is directly distributed to the people."

"Of course, some people may say that there are good years and bad years in farming. We will give you 20% of the annual income regardless of it. ”

"But I also have to make it clear, two percent a year, and we only divide it into five years. After five years, either they will come and take the fields away. Either I'll give you all the interest. ”

Suddenly, a very smart reader said: "Lord Su Yu, in fact, the share you give us every year is from the money you make from running a factory, right?" ”

Su Yu said: "Yes, I will raise money to set up a factory, and then share the money with you from the profits of the factory!" ”

"So what if my factory doesn't make money and loses money?"

"You have bought the field, three and a half of silver and one acre of fertile land, will you suffer?"

"Of course, some people may be worried that the war in Jiangxi will cause no one to plant the fields."

"My army is in Jiangxi, in just one month, we have defeated tens of thousands of rebels, with my army here, who can fight it."

"From the beginning to the present, has my Su Lu army ever lost a battle?"

At this time, an old man suddenly came out of the queue and said, "Lord Su Yu, the old man has a few questions. ”

Su Yu said: "Old gentleman, please speak." ”

The old man said: "Lord Su Yu, my family has six sons, and three of them have not found a daughter-in-law, and they have nothing to do all day long, and they can't find a job. I just want to know, if I take out the coffin and buy the field, can I get the field? Can my three sons go farming? ”

The old man's words struck the hearts of many people present.

Su Yu suddenly thought that there were a large number of unemployed people in the capital.

Not only Han Chinese, but also many banner people.

The Han people are better, and the low-level banner people are still unable to fend for themselves, and they can't farm if they want to.

Su Yu dismounted, stepped forward to hold the old man's hand and said: "Old man, I promise with my life that as long as the land you buy, it will definitely belong to your family, and your three sons can go to settle down." ”

The old man said: "However, we are from Shuntianfu, can we still go to Jiangxi?" ”

In the late Qing Dynasty, the immigration of the banner people was very strict.

For non-flag people, the order also prohibits arbitrary relocation.

But...... Some of them already exist in name only.

In fact, large-scale migration has emerged in recent years, partly organized by the imperial court and government, but also spontaneously.

And Su Yu is a feudal official, which is drizzling.

Su Yu said: "Old gentleman, if your three sons are going to Jiangxi, I will not only let them get good land immediately. Moreover, each young man will be given thirty-six taels of silver to settle down, half of which will be given before departure, and the other half will be given after arriving in Jiangxi. ”

Then, full of guilt, he said: "I'm really ashamed, I should have given more Anjia silver, but I want to set up a factory, and the money is really not much, so one person can only give thirty-six taels of silver." ”

"What?" Your old man said in a trembling voice: "Give back the money to the An family?" Thirty-six taels? This...... This...... Is this still a government? ”

Su Yu was stunned.

Because he found that what he said just now was very powerful.

Even more powerful than the previous talk about the benefits of running a factory.

The old gentleman is right, in this era, only the official uniform oppresses the people, where is the government giving so much silver.

Su Yu said: "Old man, my home is in Bicai Hutong, and I grew up watching the big guys." If I break my promise, you go directly to my house and smash my door and smack my face. ”

The old man knelt down and said, "Lord Qingtian, Lord Qingtian." ”

"I'll buy it, I'll buy ......it," the old man said, "I'll pay three hundred and fifty taels of silver to buy one hundred acres!" ”

Su Yu suddenly sniffed out the history of the decline of a family.

This old man was able to take out three hundred and fifty taels of silver to buy a field, and the family must have been able to do it before, but now the family is in the middle of the road, and his son has given birth to many children, and he can't find a job.

As for saying that farming is unproductive?

It was a modern society, and it was very noble in the Qing Dynasty.

Moreover, the old man bought a hundred acres at once, and each son bought more than 30 acres, which can be regarded as a small landlord.

"The third child, silver, silver......" the old man said.

Su Yu couldn't help but look at Lin Li, is this the trust you are looking for?

Lin Li shook his head, this was not what he was looking for.

A strong man led a large bag of silver.

After the old man took it, he could hardly lift it, and put the silver in Su Yu's hand very solemnly.

"Master Su Yu, I'll buy it!"

Suddenly, Su Liu's eyes turned slightly red.

It's not just silver, it's a lot of trust.

This is the old man's life savings.

And this is completely out of trust in Su Yu personally.

Su Yu took the silver, held the old man's hand, and was speechless for a long time.

After a long while, he trembled and said, "I will definitely live up to the old man's trust." ”

And the old man was also a scholar, and immediately felt Su Yao's emotional infection.

"Master Su, my three sons who have no way out also went to Jiangxi with you. If you have a little ability, just work in your factory, and if you don't have the ability, let them farm, plough and read heirlooms. The old man said hoarsely.

Suddenly, three strong men came to Su Yu, knelt down straight and said, "Grass people Lin Guangzu, meet Su Dashuai." ”

"Grass people Lin Guangzong, meet Su Dashuai."

"The grass people are glorious, meet Su Dashuai."

Su Yu was moved again: "Old man, I will definitely work hard to make your three sons truly glorious ancestors, and I will definitely not let you trust me in vain." ”

The crowd around watched the scene.

Many of them, although they are not educated, can feel emotions.

Even many people can feel sincerity.

"Lord Su Yu, can I buy ten acres?" A man raised his hand and said timidly, "Do you remember me?" ”

Su Yu said: "Remember, Deng Jianma." ”

This is the brother who Su Xiangrui can touch the root of my life.

This man said: "Deng Jian is really my second brother, my name is Deng Mo." I couldn't find a daughter-in-law in the capital, and I didn't have any income, so I helped people every day and was looked down upon. My brother Deng Jian works as a steward in the Qinglou, so he should be able to borrow my money to buy land. ”

Su Yu said: "Yes, don't say ten acres, one acre is fine." ”

Immediately after, the crowd began to surge.

"Lord Su, I'll buy it too!"

"Lord Su Yu, I'll buy it."

The crowd soon became a scramble.

It's really like saying that this is a great thing.

There is a half-price fertile land, what are you afraid of?

The key is that this signature character is trustworthy.

And Su Yu, for the low-level people in the capital, has never broken his word, a hero-level figure.

Moreover, the interaction between him and the people just now, the chemistry was too good.

The front is still halfway, and when he is really emotional in the second half, the appeal is too strong.

Of course, part of the reason.

Ordinary people need a way too much.

…………………………………………………………

Next!

A trend has been formed.

Almost the entire capital is talking about buying land in Jiangxi.

At first, it was just enthusiasm, and then it started to scramble.

Not only the Han people are buying, but many flag people are also buying.

At the beginning, it was obvious that Su Yu was trying to raise money.

But it soon became, Su Yu led everyone to get rich.

But there's a small trouble.

Su Yao is not enough manpower, because there are too many people who come to buy land.

More people, buy hundreds of thousands of acres.

For those who are less, buy a few acres.

Some people take silver tickets, some people take silver, and some people take copper coins.

The education level of the new army is very good, and there are special literacy classes, so everyone is literate.

However, it is still too difficult to get them to complete these transactions.

However, sister-in-law Bai Feifei has a lot of accounts and shopkeepers, all of whom have poured out of the nest.

Followed by.

Someone came to visit.

It is the ticket number shopkeeper of Rishengchang.

"Lord Su Yu, your field is selling so hot, I am afraid that there is a shortage of manpower, I have brought two hundred people, you can send it."

This person is really good at being human.

Su Yu said: "Shopkeeper Li, you are really timely rain, that is really tiring and annoying." ”

Shopkeeper Li said: "Where, where, it is also our honor to be able to share the worries of Master Su." ”

Next, the entry of these 200 professionals suddenly made everything smooth.

Whether it is collecting money, counting money, or issuing bills, they are the most professional.

Even the related bills, their anti-counterfeiting technology is unique.

Shopkeeper Li bowed to Su Yu again and said, "We don't have enough vision and equipment, so it's a pity that we can't cooperate with Lord Su Yu." But the villain's admiration for the adult is beyond words. ”

"This 100,000 taels of silver is a trumpet filial piety to the adult, there is no condition, as long as the adult can accept it, it is a great favor to us."

Then, Shopkeeper Li respectfully handed over a silver ticket of 100,000 taels of silver.

"In addition, the silver and copper coins you collected from selling the field this time are scattered. If you believe it, we can help you exchange it for silver bills, you can take our money order, go to Shanghai, Suzhou and other places, and exchange it for silver, or gold. ”

This is another big favor.

Su Yu said: "Then thank you to Shopkeeper Li." ”

He accepted the filial piety of the hundred thousand taels of silver.

Suddenly, Shopkeeper Li breathed a long sigh of relief.

This means that in the future, there is still room for cooperation between the great cause of Su Yu and their rising prosperity.

Shopkeeper Li bowed down and said, "Then you are busy, the villain will retire." ”

Su Yu said: "I'll send the shopkeeper Li." ”

Rishengchang's shopkeeper Li had just left, and Wang Tingxiang, the king of Dashengkui, came to visit him in person.

"I'm very sorry, the last time Princess Shou'an held a banquet, she couldn't help Master Su get things done." Wang Tingxiang said: "Master Su wants to do a great job, and there is a place for Da Shengkui, just open your mouth." ”

Su Yu said: "That's nature, that's nature." ”

Wang Tingxiang said: "This bit of silver is not a tribute, I wish Master Su a great success." ”

handed it over, a full fifty thousand taels of silver.

It's also a big deal.

Su Yu also accepted the silver.

It's not that he wants to take a bribe, but that he doesn't accept the money, but offends people, which shows that there is no room for cooperation in the future.

Next, Su Yao's house is even more crowded.

Many of the old relatives in the flag people came to send silver.

Now in the entire capital, everyone knows that Su Yu wants to set up a factory in Jiangxi.

And it's a big deal.

And this kind of gathering crowd to rob once it becomes a trend.

I can't stop it.

Before, Su Yu tried desperately to raise money, but he couldn't raise it.

Princess Shou'an personally invited guests, and people reluctantly bought 70,000 taels of silver per person, which has the meaning of fate.

As a result, now, countless people are rushing to deliver money.

It's in full swing.

Princess Shou'an even said that she would return the 2.1 million taels of silver to those Mongolian princes, and she didn't want their silver, anyway, everyone is rushing to ask for it now.

Of course Su Yu will not do this, this amount of equipment must be necessary.

Some people even persuaded Su Yu to simply sell 3 million mu of fertile land and sell an extra 1 million.

But Su Yu also refused.

Although there are many ownerless fields in Jiangxi, there are not as many as imagined.

Moreover, Su Yao's army went directly to grab it.

There are also many fields left behind to grow silkworms, cotton, flax, tobacco, and so on.

The reason why Su Yu chose to set up a factory in Jiangxi was also because of the Taiping Rebellion, where there was a large area of no man's land and a large area of ownerless land, which could be directly collected for official use.

Anywhere else, it would be a pipe dream to get so many fields at once.

…………………………………………………………

Four days later!

The 2 million acres of fertile land in Suyao have all been sold.

This is because there are too many people who buy it, and it takes so long to go through the process.

In fact, there are still many people who have not bought it, and they feel that they have missed the opportunity to make a fortune.

Now everyone knows that Su Yu is going to set up a factory with this money, and the so-called share comes from making money from the factory.

They don't understand how the factory makes money, but they choose to believe in Su Yao.

Su Yu had never lost before, nor had he disappointed.

And there is a guarantee of 2 million fertile land, and everyone's money will not be wasted.

"My lord, there are 116,854 people in all, who have purchased our fertile land."

To be precise, these nearly 120,000 people believed in Su Yu and invested in Su Yu's factory.

"We estimate that there are more than 20,000 young adults who are ready to follow us south, and this number is still increasing, most of them are from the capital, the remaining half are from Zhili, and most of them are unemployed young adults."

There are so many young people who want to follow Su Yu to the south?

It was completely beyond Su Yu's expectations.

Even the imperial court will be a little shaken.

So many people are leaving the capital? Heading to Jiangxi?

Su Yu has such a big appeal?

On the one hand, it is because of the appeal, and on the other hand, because there are too many young people who can't find a way.

Some of these people went to farm.

But more people were completely moved by the prospect described by Su Yu, hoping that the legendary factory could really allow them to make money, marry a wife, have children, and spread their branches.

Shen Baozhen said: "This time we have set off an unprecedented storm in the capital, and soon the whole world will know that you are going to set up a factory in Jiangxi and engage in foreign affairs, and then there will be peerless eyes staring at you and Jiujiang." ”

There will be a huge pressure to see if he succeeds or fails.

But...... It's a good thing after all.

The world's attention also means the advertising effect.

Then, Shen Baozhen said: "So many young adults want to follow you to Jiangxi, just to settle down with the family's silver, it will cost nearly one million taels, and there is also pressure on the imperial court, maybe there is also pressure, do you want to accept it?" ”

Su Yu said: "Collect, of course you have to collect!" ”

Since they pinned their hopes on Su Yu, why didn't they accept it?

Shen Baozhen said: "Then the emperor's side, you are going to see him after all and make an explanation." ”

At this time, Lin Li came in and said, "My lord, this is Rishengchang's seven million taels of bills of exchange, which can be directly exchanged for gold and silver in Shanghai." ”

Rishengchang gave Su Yu another big favor.

Because it wasn't so fast, they collected all kinds of silver, as well as copper coins.

Silver needs to be counted, smelted, etc., and it takes time.

But the other party directly sent the seven million taels of money order, just knowing that Su Yu was in a hurry.

Su Yu looked at the thick silver ticket in front of him, this was the trust of more than 100,000 people in him.

This is the concentrated fulfillment of all the appeal of Su Yu before.

Running a factory can only succeed, not fail.

Next, it's time to enter the palace to see the emperor.

Even, it can be regarded as the final explanation to the emperor of this trip.

According to history, there are not many opportunities for him to meet the emperor in the future.

………………………………

Two quarters of an hour later, Su Yu meticulously put on his official uniform and went to the palace.

Coming to the outside of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Su Yu said loudly: "Your Majesty, Su Yu asks to see you." ”

The eunuch Zeng Lu immediately entered the Heart Cultivation Hall and said: "Your Majesty, the loyal and brave Marquis Su Lu asks to see you." ”

The emperor put away the book and said lightly and coldly: "I am tired, I don't see it." ”

The eunuch Zenglu's heart shook, this ...... This is the first time that the emperor has such an attitude towards Brother Su Yu.

For the first time.

Note: The first update is sent, this chapter was written until half past eight in the morning, speechless.

Engong, I fell one place on the monthly ticket list, and I felt a little uncomfortable, so help me rush forward.
