Zhenluwei, on the grassland outside Guan.
This is the sphere of influence of the Taichiwu tribe. Now the Taichiwu tribe, with Yangshanlu advancing all the way, the business of wool and cattle and sheep bones is booming, so it has developed into a large tribe of nearly 10,000 people ( Some small tribes around have come to take refuge).
For example, today is a rare good weather. The herds of sheep grazing are like patches of white clouds flowing on the grassland.
Papa Buck is a Taichi Ube herder who is nearly fifty years old. At his age, for the Mongols wandering on the grasslands and helpless, they have almost reached the age of waiting to die, and the days are not as good as the year. .
But fortunately for Papa Buck, he is a member of the Taichiwu tribe, so with the growth of the Taichiwu tribe, he has lived a happy life, including the sheep that originally belonged to him. Many of them have increased to seventy or eighty.
Including this year’s rare disaster years on the grasslands, the grasslands have degraded, and livestock have died of freezing and starvation. Fortunately, the princess’s forehead is a blessing on the grassland (in fact, the Mongolian Empire has already perished and is not suitable for being called the forehead. But old people like him are still used to calling them this way).
He has handed down many ways to deal with the disaster year, including storing fodder in advance, preventing and curing diseases, etc., so the sheep he stocked were not affected by the disaster year, and now he looks at the wool on these sheep, his eyes It is very hot-this is a money cow that can walk all the way...
"Daddy Buck, are you ready to cut the wool again?" At this moment, a young man in a tribe was driving another group of sheep by, and he asked with a smile when he saw Daddy Buck holding the scissors in his hand and preparing to cut the wool.
"That's right—" Father Buck said with a smile while touching his gray beard: "Now, don't you dare to throw these stinky wool like before! Han people are smart, I heard It can be spun into clothes to wear, what kind of woolen sweater is called... Although my Buck is old, I would like to save some money to buy one to wear in the future. I heard that the clothes are very warm, and it won’t be cold if you put them on in the winter and feed sheep. Got it..."
"Hehe, Daddy Buck, you will fulfill your wish—" the young man said with a smile. In fact, he knew that Daddy Buck had bought a sweater, but it was for his granddaughter to marry him. prepare.
How could a poor herder like him afford expensive clothes that cost a dozen silver pieces? But now, as more and more money is made from wool, it seems that you will be able to afford it soon!
There are many people like Papa Buck in the entire Taichiwu tribe, including many surrounding tribes, and even some hostile Mongolian tribes. Driven by their interests, some people secretly transported wool for profit. (Although it is a hostile relationship, but the waste that was originally thrown away, but now it can be sold for money, and the price is still very good, then who else will have trouble with money).
So in this way, after trucks of wool were cut, they were continuously transported through the Great Wall Pass to Zhenluwei and Tianchengwei. Originally, these wools were supplied to these two sweater workshops. , But now, as Yang Shanlu's power has grown to Weiyuanwei, the sweater workshop there has also been built, and a new transportation route has been born.
A newly built sweater workshop in Xinping Fort.
The sky has just brightened, and the Li Wangshi has already arrived here early, waiting for the start of a new day of work. In fact, according to the regulations, it will be three quarters of an hour before the start of work, but Li Wangshi likes to arrive early... Because she likes this job.
The specific job of Li Wang's is to sort out wool. She was originally a wife of an ordinary military household. She is now in her forties. Originally, for people like them, life meant waiting for death, meaning endless endless hardships!
However, as Master General opened a new sweater workshop in the fort, a glimmer of hope arose in her heart... Master General was so sympathetic to the poor, maybe he could bring her a way out...
But soon, this hope was extinguished again. She had heard people say that a piece of clothing called a woolen sweater would sell for ten taels of silver, which would be worth her family's expenses for a year! So how can such high-end things be done by a clumsy woman like her!
What she did not expect was that immediately after the recruitment examination posted in Xinpingbao, she gave her hope again... Actually there are still 600 general workers to be recruited? Specifically, the production of woolen sweaters is a labor-intensive industry. For example, before spinning wool into woolen sweaters, it needs to inspect wool, wash wool, and steam wool... Anyway, there are many processes and a large number of ordinary female workers are required.
Then Li Wang was excited when he heard it, which is great! Although she is clumsy, she can do these most common tasks.
Moreover, it is clearly stated on the notice that the entire workshop needs to recruit nearly a thousand female workers. General workers like her, although their income is not as high as that of female workers who can run textile machines, they are already pretty good. They can do just one day. Give thirty copper plates (you can buy two catties of white noodles, like her one catty a day is enough, and one catty can be saved), and the wages are settled every five days, and you will never be in arrears!
So after only half a month, Li Wang has already liked this place deeply, but there is only one bad thing here, that is, there are few opportunities for'overtime' (this is also the name given by the General). Work ends on time at four o'clock in the afternoon every day.
When Li Wang was thinking about it, he saw a female steward came to open the door, and also issued a notice: "Attention everyone, there is a lot of work today, so some people who are willing to work overtime sign up by themselves."
"I want it!" After hearing that he needed to work overtime, Li Wang hurriedly raised his hands high, lest he missed this opportunity... You should know that as long as you add half an hour, you can get five more copper coins and also provide a meal. Free dinner, so even the hundreds of female workers, including her, are all looking forward to working overtime!
It’s just that, it’s not easy to work overtime. I heard that it is still a rule made by the General... The daily working hours cannot exceed four hours (eight hours), and overtime cannot exceed one hour (usually working for the landlord’s wealth, at least six Hour), it is said to protect their health and prevent the breeding of various occupational diseases due to long working hours.
But it's so pitiful, where can there be any occupational diseases! The women working here, everyone wears something made of cotton called a'mask'. Although wearing this kind of thing feels boring, the silky things floating in the air are not. I can inhale my nose, how can I get an occupational disease
However, since this is the provision issued by the General, they can only implement it, and then they think this way. Although there are not many opportunities for overtime and time is limited, this is already very good. After all, as long as the sweater workshop is If you keep going and work in this workshop for a few more days, won't you have everything
And this idea is also the voice of the nearly 1,000 female workers in the sweater workshop.
So in this way, after more than a month after Yang Shanlu took office, the entire Xinpingbao has become completely new and the economy has been greatly developed!
And similar things are also happening in the entire Yanghe Dao Shiwei. You must know that Yang Shanlu holds three magic weapons, namely Baihualu, fertilizer field powder, and woolen sweaters. (Among them, after the expansion of the woolen sweater workshop, The money is about the same as Baihualu, and Feitianfen does not make much money, but its effect on the farm is irreplaceable).
It turned out that he has been paying attention to controlling the scale of production for these things, especially Baihualu (for fear that it will cause others to worry about it if it can be produced in unlimited quantities), but now, as his own strength grows, he can boldly expand production with confidence!
Anyway, according to the different circumstances of the Ten David Institute, Yang Shanlu will open up a sweater workshop if suitable for the development of animal husbandry, such as herding sheep, and in some places where farming is concentrated, then another fat field will be opened. Fan workshop, how to come anyway!
The same goes for Baihualu! You know that Baihualu is the most profitable among the three major industries! (A bottle of about 30 ml of Hundred Flower Lotion, the ex-factory price is twenty taels of silver! And the cost of it is less than two silvers, almost negligible, one bottle is worth two woolen sweaters)
However, the original Baihualu was too eye-catching, so Yangshanlu was just a small play, and only set up a small-scale workshop in Laochao Town, Luwei, but now, Yangshanlu just picked three mountain flowers rich in resources. So, I opened three more in one breath!
Anyway, the Hundred Flower Dew he produces now cannot even meet the supply in the entire capital, not to mention that there are so many prosperous places in Daming... Like Suzhou, Hangzhou, Shili Qinhuai... This is not even included in the export overseas. , So you don’t have to worry about sales at all!
(A workshop can produce one hundred bottles of Hundred Flower Dew every day, and three thousand bottles in one month. Calculated with a profit of 22 taels per bottle, one month is sixty thousand taels! Calculated by a total of four Hundred Flower Dew workshops, the profit per month is just There are two hundred and forty thousand taels! And this is the confidence of Yang Shanlu to revitalize the entire Yanghe Dao Shiwei!)
Moreover, although the workshop that produces Baihualu does not require much manpower (generally no more than ten people in the whole workshop), because it needs to purchase a large number of petals and requires a lot of manpower, it can also effectively boost the local economy.
Of course, there are many Baihualu workshops, and the only thing that needs to be paid attention to is the confidentiality of the craftsmanship. However, because the workshops require fewer people, Yang Shanlu sends absolute confidants, and each person only masters part of the craftsmanship. The workshop is protected by the Xuanjia army, so you can ensure that this secret will not be leaked.
Of course, there are many ways to develop the economy. For example, some sanitation houses have not much land, but they have rich iron ore resources, and some sanitation houses have more lakes, which are suitable for raising fish and ducks... Anyway, all kinds of facilities are built according to local conditions. use.
Three months later, and so on, the entire Yanghe Ten Wei has been governed. It has to be said that relying on Yang Shanlu’s strong economic strength and correct governance methods, it has been easy to bring the entire Yang and Dao Ten. Wei's governance work is complete!
(Like this, the reconstruction of the entire Yang and Ten Wei, and the initial food-for-work, the amount of money and food needed is an astronomical figure! But now, Yang Shanlu has taken it all down only by relying on his personal financial strength. ! Of course, the Ten Davids belong to the Ministry of War, and as Father Yang Shanlu, not to mention using power for personal gain, but the materials that should be allocated are the same.)
Ten days later, Yang Shanlu, who had traveled through the Ten David's House, returned to Zhenluwei again.
Because Zhenluwei was the place where Yangshanlu started, plus his guerrilla general mansion, oh, now it has been changed to the East Road Canjiangfu, which is also located in the Tiancheng city of Zhenluwei, so Yangshanlu usually Still sitting here, remote control ten David's office.
At this time, after taking a break, he began to listen to the report by Sun Changming, the chief executive officer of the experience-the final report on the governance of Yanghe Tenwei. (End of this chapter)
