Chapter 82: Many Industries

"These are the land deeds held by Zhengquanmen, a village at the foot of the mountain, about five miles away, has about fifty acres of land, and there are also some wastelands, but these lands are useless, and I don't know what Zhengquanmen is used for!"

"The 50 acres of land were leased to two nearby farmers by Zhengquanmen, and they would collect rent after the autumn harvest every year, and Zhengquanmen would draw 70% of the harvest of the year, and the rest would be the income of the two farmers themselves. They have already collected this year's rent, so we have to wait until next year if we want the harvest of this fifty acres of land!"

Ye Wen nodded, this fifty acres of land is definitely a very good thing, whether it is sent by himself to plant or rented out to farmers, it gives the Shushan faction a most basic income guarantee. This is not the vegetable garden in his mountain gate, this is the real food.

In this era, grain production is not high, so grain prices have been high, if the grain produced by these 50 acres of land is sold for money, it can definitely bring a huge income, which can fully meet the basic needs of this sect. However, Ye Wen had no interest in reselling grain, he felt that the biggest use of these fifty acres of land was to allow the Shushan faction to eat the grain produced by itself, which saved a lot of expenses.

"In addition, Zhengquanmen also has contact with several landlords in some villages, and these big landlords have asked Zhengquanmen to send people to be guards, and now Zhengquanmen has handed over the work of these courtyards to us, saying that they will send someone to call their people back tomorrow and ask us to take over by ourselves!"

Speaking of this, Ning Ruxue frowned: "Will these landlords not recognize the strength of our disciples, and then be unwilling to use us?"

In fact, Ning Ruxue doubted that Zhengquanmen would be so happy? After all, this kind of thing of guarding the house is always used to be practiced, as long as Zhengquanmen said a little before leaving, we were also forced to give up this job, and it is estimated that those big landlords who paid for it would not have a good face for the disciples of Shushan.

Ye Wen also thought of this, and in the blink of an eye, he had a plan: "Don't care, if you are willing to let us take over the guard, we will send people, and if you are unwilling, we will not be reluctant! It's just that his contract is in our hands, if they don't want to use it, let them pay money according to the violation of the contract!"

In fact, even if these landlords really want Shushan to send disciples to go out and garrison for a long time, Ye Wen is not willing, because he doesn't have so many disciples in the sect at all, and some of them still need to go to the Yueshan Dart Bureau often, and only ten disciples can stay in the door for a long time.

Compared to the huge sect he specially built, these ten disciples were thrown in, and it was difficult to see them when they walked in the sect at all, unless it was the time for practicing and teaching or eating, otherwise it was not uncommon for no one to see it for a day.

Therefore, Ye Wen didn't want to take over all of these landlords' guard work at all, and the best case scenario was that one or two landlords agreed to have Shushan disciples take over the guards, and the others all refused. However, the person who defaulted on the contract would definitely not be Ye Wen, so he was unwilling to bear the losses caused by the default.

"It's just, will those landlords be willing to lose money?" Ning Ruxue didn't think that these people would be willing to pay for the trouble caused by Zhengquanmen, after all, the contract was signed with Zhengquanmen, and now the people in Shushan took these contracts and said that the other party was in breach of contract, and even if the other party didn't give money, it seemed to be nothing.

Ye Wen thought for a while, and finally said: "If they don't give it, we won't be reluctant! Just write down which families they are, and if they ask for it in the future, we will settle accounts with them!"

After thinking about it carefully, if these people really didn't buy it, Ye Wen really couldn't do anything. After all, his sect is a decent one, and Ye Wen has no interest in becoming a public enemy of martial arts, a green forest thief, or a super devil, so if the other party is determined not to give money or use his disciples, he has no choice.

You can't just kill the door and destroy the whole house, right?

He is now the head of a faction, with dozens of people to raise, and his hometown is on the top of this Shu Mountain. It's not the rootless duckweed, the lone ranger who doesn't have a fixed residence, he comes and goes when he wants, and the kind of life that leaves Ye Wen after he decides to create a powerful sect.

Therefore, he has to think more about many things when he does them, such as the kind of things that will obviously make his sect's reputation stink, he has to be cautious, if it is not good, the reputation of the Shushan faction is smashed in the hands of this group of guys, then his efforts will all be in vain.

However, Ye Wen is not without a way to rectify this group of guys, and when the Shushan faction suppresses the forces around Shushan County, especially after these large and small sects on Shushan Mountain are cleaned up, these landlords will definitely ask for the door after recruiting others, and at that time, they can be at their mercy as much as they want.

More importantly, there is also a struggle between the landlords and the landlords, and there will even be some small-scale armed fights between them because of some conflicts of interest, which is why the landlords will spend a lot of money to invite strong guards.

Ye Wen can completely support some landlords who support the Shushan faction and suppress those who don't know each other.

After talking about his plans to Ning Ruxue, and after his junior sister also understood how to deal with it, he put aside the contracts for hiring guards.

"Wow, senior brother, Zhengquanmen actually has an inn in Shushan County!" Ning Ruxue was very surprised when she looked at the things in her hand, she really didn't expect that Zhengquanmen would have such a large income in addition to collecting rent for people as guards.

Moreover, this inn is not a cooperative relationship like the Shushan faction and the Yueshan Dart Bureau, this inn is completely opened by the Zhengquanmen as the backstage boss, how this inn develops is completely determined by the Zhengquanmen, and even as long as Wang Shu opens his mouth, the inn will hand over all the proceeds to the Zhengquanmen, and then close the door the next day is also an order that must be done.

The inn's shopkeeper and Xiao Er are hired, and the Zhengquanmen will send someone to check the accounts and take part of the income back to the sect every once in a while, and this work is generally done by the four deacons in turn. Of course, there will also be disciples stationed at the inn for a long time to prevent anyone from coming to make trouble.

Ye Wen and Ning Ruxue didn't know how Zhengquanmen managed this industry, but Ye Wen could guess it. In fact, if there is no accident, Ye Wen will also choose to operate in this way, because the sect is his foundation, and these surrounding industries are all for the sake of the sect.

It's just that Ye Wen has to pay more attention to the development momentum of these industries, because he understands that in addition to bringing income, inns can also bring some news about the rivers and lakes.

No way, this is also the trouble caused by the limitations of scientific and technological capabilities in this world, and if you want to get information, you can only rely on the floating population! And the inn is the largest concentration of the floating population.

Therefore, Ye Wen hopes that this inn can develop as much as possible, and it is best to become the largest inn in Shushan County, so that he can concentrate all the information under his ears as much as possible.

Almost instantly, Ye Wen realized the huge value of this inn, and immediately decided to reduce the amount of money he collected and invest more of his income in expanding the scale. Compared with Ye Wen, Ning Ruxue is concerned about the benefits that this inn can bring.

"According to the above, Zhengquanmen is about to collect accounts every three months, and if you calculate, it is the closest thing to the next collection, and we don't have to worry about the New Year's goods this time!"

As soon as she mentioned this, Ning Ruxue smiled, even if the Shushan faction didn't have to worry about the cost of living now, Ning Ruxue was still very happy that her sect could have an extra income - this kid was scared of poverty.

It's just that things don't seem to be so simple, Zhengquanmen was only defeated yesterday, so the manpower in some industries around him must not have had time to withdraw.

Just like the guards of the landlord's house, the disciples of the Zhengquan Sect in this inn estimated that they would not get news for a while, and there would definitely be another conflict when they went to take over.

"This is a fist, and it is not good to rush to send these contracts without personally sending someone to take us to do the handover!"

To be honest, Ye Wen really didn't expect this layer before, but now after thinking about it deeply, he realized what the idea of the Zhengquan Gate was playing: "The contract is given to you, as for whether you can successfully get what the Shushan faction wants!

Thinking of the master of the Zhengquan Gate, Ye Wen was contemptuous again: "Just look at this person who likes to play tricks so much, there is nothing to be afraid of in this Zhengquan Gate! The master of the Zhengquan Sect has planted it in his own hands, how much storm can these stinky fish and rotten shrimp set off?"

In fact, Ye Wen wronged Wang Shu at this point, because as soon as Wang Shu returned to the main fist gate, he fainted directly, and it was Jiang Zhen, the deputy door master, who directly sent the contract and other things over. Although this Jiang Zhen is the deputy master of the Zhengquan Sect, his kung fu is unusual, and any of the four deacons is better than him. And his position in the door is so high, all because this person is the dog-headed military master of the Zhengquan Gate.

Zhengquanmen can now have a larger layout and many industries in Shushan, among which Jiang Zhen has a lot of ideas. At the same time, the development strategy of suppressing the nearby small sects on all sides was also set by the deputy sect master.

It can be said that before meeting Ye Wen, the development of Zhengquanmen was steadily advancing according to the route arranged by Jiang Zhen, if it were not for the existence of the Shushan faction, which completely exceeded the average force level of Shushan, Zhengquanmen might really become the first major faction in Shushan, and Jiang Zhen would naturally become the meritorious service of Zhengquanmen.

It's a pity that Zhengquanmen has worked hard for all these years, and finally made a wedding dress for Ye Wen, and Jiang Zhen, who is depressed, will inevitably do something small.

Although these things seemed a bit ridiculous in Ye Wen's eyes, Jiang Zhen's thoughts were very simple: "Even if you win, I will disgust you!"

But with a wave of Ye Wen's hand, Jiang Zhen's abacus failed to start: "This inn will ask Senior Brother Xu to bring someone to take over!" Tell him to bring two disciples, if anyone jumps out to stop him, he will be beaten severely!"

P.S: Changed to 50 acres, this time it should be a lot, right?
