There is no doubt that King Zhen is here to force the palace, he understands Zi Baifeng's temperament, and directly goes straight to the point, saying: "Baifeng, Ming people don't do dark things, I came this time to ask for cooperation." ”

Naturally, Zi Baifeng knew that the person who came was not good, and he was not ambiguous, so he said directly: "I am not short of money." ”

"But I have something better than your money, don't you want PR?

After all, he is the king of the city, the king of the country, with an official status, and he can't be ignored anywhere, and the effect of him coming forward is indeed much better than that of the juniors.

The two men haggled and finally reached an agreement on relatively harsh terms.

The king of Zhen made a 30% investment, but the income only accounted for 20%, and he also had to help do a good job in various public relations, even so, the king of Zhen also knew that he was making a lot of money, and he left happily.

Sent away the king, but there were two people left, that is, He Xuwo's father He Daren and his younger brother He Xudrunk, although He Daren lost power, but he has served in the Ministry of Engineering for so long, and he has great experience in the project management of large-scale projects, and is indeed the most suitable contact person now. And after He Xuwo died, the new successor of the He family, that is, He Xu was drunk, and he must be trained well.

Compared with He Xu's wandering wreckage, He Xudrunk was much shy, and when he saw Zi Baifeng, he called out a little crampedly: "Little Hou Ye." ”

"Just call me Baifeng, your brother and I are sworn brothers, and your brother is also ...... for me" Zi Baifeng sighed, looking at Lord He's father and son in front of him, his heart was complicated and indescribable.

The rebellion of the Zhongshan faction is actually not to blame on Lord He, but at the same time, he cannot escape the blame, but He Xulie is innocent.

"Thank you little marquis for your protection of my He family. "Lord He is a man who knows the Tao, after the catastrophe of the Zhongshan faction, although their He family lost power, they still did not receive too much punishment, it is indeed Zi Baifeng who has done a lot of work in the middle.

Zi Baifeng shook his head, not knowing what to say.

A few Dangui Leagues came over and pulled He Xu drunk to the side and muttered, Zi Baifeng and He discussed specific cooperation matters, between three words, Zi Baifeng felt the extraordinaryness of He Daren, He Daren has done a lifetime of work in the Ministry of Industry, where is the experience that Zi Baifeng can compare?

When Zi Baifeng and Master He were discussing, Zijian also packed up and prepared to go out.

Put the axe, saw, and chisel that turned back into the body into the toolbox, and changed into a coarse cloth short dress, Zijian was low-key like an ordinary craftsman, and when he went out, Xiaoshi followed, and wanted to go with him, but he was driven back by Zijian, he went out this time to do business, and he didn't have time to take care of Xiaoshi.

Taxue was sitting bored at the door, and when he saw Zijian going out, he followed upside down, turned into a body, and pushed Ding Zijian's back waist, which meant to carry him there.

Today, Zijian really wanted to run a few more places, so he turned over and rode on the snow, and trotted through the snow.

Xiao Shi was bored at home, there were almost no peers with him, Xiaopan and Yan Xiaolei didn't mess around with him, he was bored and panicked, and when he saw that the red drum girl's family of three was about to go out with the red drum on his back, he hurriedly came up, said a few words, and gathered beside the red drum girl, stretched out his hand to lead Hui'er, and walked with him.

Then a large number of people went out one after another and began to implement Zi Baifeng's money-making plan.

After Zijian went out, he asked a few people and went straight to the nearest labor market.

The first thing you need to build a house is carpentry and masonry, and if you want to hire enough carpenters and masons, you must first find out the market of the whole city.

Riding through the snow all the way through the stone-paved streets, bypassing two alleys, we came to an empty field, about three or five acres in size, gathered many people, wearing clothes sticky with mud, or standing or squatting.

Seeing Zijian coming, a few people who were close swept their eyes over, and when they saw the toolbox in Zijian's hand, they turned their eyes away again and continued to chat.

"Why hasn't the big customer you said come yet?" asked a carpenter beside him.

"Don't think about it. The mason snorted at the carpenter, "Yesterday I barely managed to do a small job with Dai Tou, and in the evening I settled the bill and let him go." No, Dai Tou'er is squatting there, but today he is holding back his strength, and he has to do a big job no matter what. ”

"Dai Tou'er's craft can only be a small worker, how much does a small worker cost?" asked the carpenter.

"I said that it was a big customer, the price of a small worker is higher than that of other big workers, 400 Wen for a small worker, a tael of silver for a big worker, and even a handyman has 100 Wen. ”

"One or two taels of silver a day, after a year, I can buy a house in Nanting." ”

"Isn't it? I also mixed up as a handyman yesterday, and I didn't work much, and I also had 100 yuan, which was considered to be earned. Your boy's craftsmanship is not even half of your old man's, that is, thirty wen a day, working as a porter. ”

Zijian listened to their conversation and turned his head to look in the direction they were talking about Dai Tou'er.

Dai Tou'er is a man in his forties, with a strong figure, thick hands and prominent joints, and there is a toolbox beside him, the toolbox is very old, but it is well maintained, not painted, but there is a thick layer of pulp, shiny and shiny, I don't know how many years it has been used.

The toolbox was ajar, revealing the tools inside, the handles of each of them, stealing a shiny yellow, apparently the tools he rubbed every day.

In his hand he held a dry tobacco stick, which was stuffed with tobacco, but it was not lit.

Zijian walked over with his toolbox, squatted down on the side, touched his body, but found a delicate wooden box, took out a cigarette roll from it, and sniffed it on his nose.

As soon as the box was opened, a spicy aroma of tobacco wafted out, many craftsmen were old smokers, smelling this completely different smell of tobacco, and suddenly leaned over their heads as if they were being dragged by the neck, Dai Tou'er was no exception, his head turned half a circle, stared at the tobacco in Zijian's hand, and asked, "This is ...... What smoke?"

"I grew my own tobacco, and my son gave it a name, called Spicy Xianjun, which is a bit rushed. ”

"It's very ......rushed" Dai Tou'er stretched his neck, sniffing the smell, and then his eyes fell on the cigarette case in Zijian's hand, but he couldn't take his eyes off it.

His eyes were not on the cigarette, but at the case.

After the cigarette box is buckled, there is no need to seal the glue, no need to inlay the skin, it is tightly buttoned together, and a trace of smoke can't float out.

The cigarette box is made of ebony, carved with mountains and clouds, a few strokes, but it is very charming. The box alone is expensive, and you can't even buy it if you want to.

"I carved it myself. Zijian smiled, threw the cigarette in his hand to Dai Tou'er, took another one from the box, Dai Tou'er took out the fire fold, helped the two of them light a cigarette, and swallowed the clouds and spit out the smoke together.

The craftsmen around him stretched their necks and smoked second-hand smoke beside them, inhaling them like intoxicated and wanting to die.

A cigarette, a cigarette case, the distance between the two people is much closer, Dai Touer is a person who knows the goods, look at Zijian's toolbox, his cigarette case, and then look at his hands, you will know that this person's craftsmanship must be extraordinary.

"What do you call a brother?" asked Dai Tou'er.

"My surname is Zi, and everyone else calls me Dajian. Zijian said, his surname is more troublesome, others can neither call him Lao Tzu nor call him a kid, so they can only call him by his name, but Dai Tou'er has his own way of calling him, nodded and said: "Brother Zi, are you here for that big customer?"

Zijian nodded, of course he didn't come for the so-called big patron before, but at this time, he must find out thoroughly. Zijian said: "Brother Dai, did you go to work yesterday?"

"Yes, I went to help them do some small work, there is not much work, but the requirements are very high, the owner is very knowledgeable, and he has been staring at it from the sidelines, and it is not easy to earn this 400 yuan. Dai Tou'er said.

"Brother Dai, you can only be a small worker?" Zijian asked, "This requirement is really not low, I heard that the big worker has one or two silver a day?"

"Yes, in addition to Dagong, there is also Seiko, ten taels of silver a day, but I don't think any of them meet the standard, and yesterday the three old carpenters in the south of the city took a tael of silver. Saying that, Dai Tou'er was still a little unwilling, in fact, the work of the big worker and the small worker was similar, but the requirements were higher, he estimated and said, "I didn't take it seriously at the beginning yesterday, and I would have shown more hands when I knew it......

When Zijian heard this, he was even more surprised in his heart, what do you want to do with such a high demand?

The labor market is also a place with strict hierarchies, generally speaking, there are big workers, small workers, apprentices who are about to leave the teacher as small workers, and the apprentices who have just received are handymen, and those who have no skills at all can only work as coolies and porters. Each grade has its own price, usually conventional, no need to negotiate, as long as you say how much big work is needed, how much small work is needed, if the work is not contrived, or the work is not satisfied, the owner has the right to downgrade, this is a two-way choice process, those who have no craftsmanship don't want to be confused, but people with craftsmanship can not be buried, without the diamond diamond, and dare not take porcelain work.

While a few people were talking, there was already a commotion outside, shouting one by one: "Coming, coming, coming again!" stood up.

Dai Tou'er reluctantly snuffed out the cigarette roll in his hand, put it in the toolbox, stood up too, and said, "The big customer is here, brother Zi, you come with me." ”

Zijian followed Dai Tou'er and walked forward, it could be seen that Dai Tou'er was very prestigious, and when he walked forward, everyone else also got out of the way, and said loudly: "Let go, let let's go, let Dai Tou'er go first!"

It can be seen that Dai Touer is the big man in this market. This status is actually very stable, an old carpenter has an apprentice, and the apprentice takes the apprentice, so that one by one, there is a very clear relationship between the upper and lower levels of respect and inferiority, and the apprentices brought out by Dai Touer are all powerful, and they naturally have a high prestige here.

Zijian was stained with light, and soon arrived at the front of the crowd, and the people behind him surrounded him in a circle, and the water was impassable.
