Chapter 8 The Crisis of Tiantongmen
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
At the beginning of the lanterns, Tian Kewangtian, the owner of the factory, personally came to the door and introduced Li Zisheng into the attic in the middle of the highland, from where you can not only overlook the entire shipyard, but also overlook the scenery of the sea.
Li Zisheng went upstairs, naturally walked to the window, and looked at the shipyard below. It's dinner time, but there are still workers at work on the big ships under construction. It seems that in order to catch up with the schedule, they are going to fight at night.
In the shack area, a little spark made Li Sangongzi's heart sudden, if this was on fire, not only would such a large shack be burned, but the craftsmen and family members in it would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
Li Zisheng only saw someone hurrying over from the seaside dock, receiving a lot of materials from the yard, and then hurriedly returning to the dock.
The chaotic scene couldn't help but make him pout, and his perception of the field owner was a little less.
The exploitation of surplus value is one thing, and the management of production is another.
Such a chaotic scene made him feel disdainful, which showed that the management ability of this field owner is really very problematic.
In fact, this is also caused by Tian Kewang's blind expansion of the factory. Originally, this Canghai shipyard had never built three such huge ships at the same time, and at the same time recruited many new workers, many of whom were forced to enter.
Without master planning and skilled workers, it's a chaotic scene.
Well, although he is the deputy steward who actually doesn't care about anything, but if he continues to do it like this, let alone complete the order of the Qingyang Sect, there may be natural disasters here anytime and anywhere**, not for Tian Kewang, for those workers, I have to do my part.
Li Zisheng temporarily decided to focus on improving his cultivation. He also came here to hide from a clean house, but seeing such disorderly production management, he couldn't help it.
So, he changed his mind. Originally, I just wanted to perfunctory Tian Kewang, but now I want to see what he is going to do.
Just made up your mind. Li Zisheng was invited to the table by the owner of the Tian factory. This dish is a good dish, and the wine is immortal wine, but the old and the young are not here.
Tian Kewang is an old fox who is naturally calm, but Li Zisheng's chest is not shallow, and the two of them chatted while eating, and they looked quite alike. It seems like a year-old friend.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the two of them are already very "familiar", and even the name has been changed. Don't look at Tian Kewang's age to be the father of Li Sangongzi, and his cultivation is also innate, but the two of them are called brothers.
There is no way, the name of the disciple of the Four Gods Sect is too big. People who really want to be Li Zisheng's "uncle" really have to weigh themselves carefully.
Tian Kewang raised his wine glass and said, "Brother Li, today is my incompetent and incompetent brother, and I let you see the joke." Come on, come on, I'll punish myself with a drink. ”
As he spoke, he craned his neck and drank a large glass of wine.
Li Sangongzi looked at him with a smile and didn't stop him. But I sighed in my heart, it seems that this "old brother" still doesn't give up, and he must let himself drill into this set. I don't know what it is, but it's certainly not a good thing.
He also raised his glass and said, "Brother Tian is really too polite. Some little things are not worth mentioning, it's rare that you are still worried about it, you really killed the little brother, and I will also accompany Brother Tian for a drink. ”
Li Zisheng also drank a glass of immortal wine very freely.
Tian Kewang didn't dare to say anything, but he secretly scolded his mother in his heart. Didn't this Immortal Master Cheng say that the Li San in front of him was only seventeen years old, and he was just a gentleman who had a little relationship with the backstage? Even beating Elder Yan's grandson to the point that he couldn't take care of himself in order to grab a woman, he was completely a reckless man.
The drama he arranged in a hurry did not let him take the bait. It's nothing. It is very likely that he, like the disciples of other great sects, does not care about the life or death of mortals at all. But now that this meal has been tempted, this little guy not only does not eat oil and salt, but also speaks without leakage.
It's not easy!
It's just that Immortal Master Cheng has already confessed, and he wants to push that incident on his head...... Up to now, Tian Kewang can only use dead horses as live horse doctors. Bite the bullet up.
He put down his wine glass, coughed dryly, and said, "Ahem, ahem, Brother Li, a great talent like you came here to succumb to a deputy steward, and naturally suffered a great grievance." But...... My brother is also bitter in his heart. It's rare for our brothers to fall in love, and today I will talk to you about it......"
According to Li Zisheng's original plan, this meal is eaten here, and when he hears such a simple and profound "heartfelt words", he will not give face to the owner of the field factory, so what can he do if he stands up and leaves?
Now, he's going to have to listen to it. Therefore, Li Zisheng showed a hint of surprise and said: "What is the difficulty of Brother Tian, although the younger brother is soft-spoken, but his responsibility is to reflect it to the sect when the time comes." ”
What Tian Kewang said surprised Li Zisheng, because he hadn't noticed this matter before, but when the Tian factory owner said it, he remembered it.
According to Tian Kewang, the biggest difficulty encountered by Canghai Shipyard is that grain prices remain high and have been in a state of shortage.
Li Zisheng has known this matter for a long time, and the reason is that the great invasion of the demon gods a few years ago caused great damage to Yangzhou, and the powerful demon beasts in the Sea Clan broke into Yangzhou, causing a large number of deaths in the population, and the vast majority of these people are farmers living in the countryside. At the same time, the tsunami of demon beasts also flooded many grain fields, and it has not fully recovered.
Of course, this will lead to a reduction in Yangzhou's grain production, and high grain prices and supply difficulties are also expected.
However, the grain produced in Qingzhou was not enough to supply local demand, and it relied on the supply of grain from Yangzhou. In addition, the current shipbuilding plan of 1,000 ships has concentrated the labor force in the shipbuilding industry, and the production of grain has naturally been affected.
That's why there are those "workers" who come to ask for help. The owners of the fields gave them wages, but they did not cover their food. These workers are naturally very sensitive to grain prices, and when they encounter such a predicament, they naturally ask the shipyard to raise their wages.
However, Tian Kewang's capital turnover had a big problem, and naturally he couldn't meet the requirements of these workers, so there was the "worker master" that Li Zisheng met when he entered the door today.
However, what does this have to do with oneself? Could it be because one's own family, Xinyi Shuntang, also runs a grain business? Where did the owner of the field get the news from his own life?
Li Zisheng naturally knew that his family's novel Shuntang was only doing the grain business by the way, but in fact, most of them were sold to Tiantongmen.
Could it be......
Li Sangongzi's mind flashed with inspiration, and he had already touched the thoughts of this old brother Tian in front of him.
Sure enough, I heard Tian Kewang say: "I have long heard that Brother Li's family operates a ticket number, I don't know if I want to lend a sum of yuan stone to my brother to turn around? Brother Li is kind-hearted, so he naturally understands my hardships. ”
Well, I see, I really want to borrow the yuan stone from my family.
Li Zisheng seemed to inadvertently pick up his wine glass and block it in front of him, but he was actually delaying time, thinking about the other party's mention in his mind.
This matter doesn't seem to be inappropriate, originally his own home is the invoice number, borrowing money to earn interest is a matter of eating, who is not borrowing it, and there is nothing wrong with lending it to this Tian Kewang factory owner.
Wait, there's something wrong with that.
Li Sangongzi put down the wine glass in his hand, and asked with a very solemn expression: "Then why doesn't Brother Tian ask Tiantong to borrow Yuan Shi? Well, there is no need to borrow Yuan Shi, as long as you buy a batch of grain on credit as wages for your craftsmen?"
"Brother Li only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other. Tian Kewang sighed again, and said with a little mystery, "Tiantongmen is afraid that it will be difficult to protect itself now." ”
Li Zisheng remained silent on the surface, thinking in his heart that this was not right. He has an inside line in Tiantongmen, that is, Tie Baiqiang. He has become an inner disciple of Tiantongmen, and has always maintained a very close relationship with Li Zisheng.
Of course, Tie Baiqiang also told Li Zisheng about the predicament encountered by Tiantongmen, or because of the great invasion of the demon gods, Tiantongmen also suffered a great loss. However, it is far from the point of "self-protection".
Tian Kewang saw that Li Zisheng was silent, knowing that the other party didn't believe his words, this little guy "has a family history", and it is said that he also has some friendship with the Hua family, one of the nine families in Yangzhou, and this empty talk can't blind the other party. So this field owner is also going to shake some fierce material.
"Brother Li doesn't know, the four god sects have jointly decided that the Yuan Stone Coin that will be used in Central Continent will be used soon!"
"Dangchang".
Li Zisheng, who had a calm temperament, couldn't hold the wine glass in his hand, so he poured the residual wine on the table by mistake.
This news is amazing!
You must know that back then, Tianqimen almost had a real war with Tiantong Sect, but fortunately, there was a great invasion of the demon gods, so Tiantongmen did not act rashly. Now that the Four Gods Sect is doing this, Tiantongmen doesn't have the strength to fight against these four sects.
The fall of this Tianmen is just around the corner!
"Is this serious?!" Li Zisheng immediately asked. He, the outer disciple of the Qingyang Sect, didn't know any news at all, but this businessman from the Qingyang Sect couldn't help but be suspicious when he knew such heavy news.
"What did the old brother lie to you. This is the news from the top of the Qingyang Sect. If it weren't for the friendship between the old brother and the Cheng Yuhe Immortal Master under Elder Shi, it would be impossible for him to know this news. ”
Li Sangongzi took a deep breath and carefully looked at Tian Kewang's fat face, he wanted to know if this guy was telling the truth.
