The people from Zhang's family came to the best room in the first Linshui house, and said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan who were waiting: "Little son, little lady, they have to go to the details and did not sign the paperwork. "
"Oh, okay, then you can ask Dingping about the cooperation with Dingping and see what they say." Zhang Xiaobao ordered a bit disappointed.
Waiting for people to go out, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan sighed at the same time.
"It seems that they are really going to be hostile to us to the end. Isn't it good to cooperate to make the business bigger? They have to calculate each other. If that's the case, let's play with them."
Zhang Xiaobao looked at the busy people below, and said helplessly. He felt that if he replaced him, he would consider cooperation. Isn’t doing business just asking for money? If you lose this part, you can make up for it elsewhere. It is the best policy to turn enemies of competition into partners of cooperation.
Wang Juan dug out a spoon from the bowl of shaved ice and put it in his mouth, and said, "Don't care about them, let them toss casually. Isn't it a shortcoming of manpower? Let Li Xun find a way to see the boats on the other side of the Yellow River. Could you please contact me, after all, I have to enter the sea from there."
"It can only be so." Zhang Xiaobao left the window, got close to Wang Juan, followed by taking a bite, and the coolness entered his stomach, making him feel much better.
The shipping merchants in the other room were still passing the information there. Anyone who knew the word would be like Mi Fan after reading it. They were surprised. This plan is really great.
One by one, they said they wanted to build a big ship, and then they made money in the past. Only Mi Fan was there sipping the sour plum soup one by one.
It is precisely because of that detailed plan that he is more worried. Who will win this time? I don’t know yet. Looking at those excited people, he really regrets it. Why is it so? I knew I wouldn't do things with these people.
Obedient means obedient, but you can't use it when it's critical. If you cooperate with a shrewd person, you can at least come up with an idea when you encounter something.
"Brother Weitong, let's arrange the matter of blocking the river. The detailed plan is ready, so there is no need to talk to them about other things."
At this time, Guo Ren leaned forward and said to Mi Fan. Seeing his red-faced excitement, Mi Fan sighed in his heart and nodded: "Okay, let's make arrangements. Three big ships will be dispatched. The boatman knows what to do. "
As soon as he finished saying this, there was a knock on the door from outside, and the man should come in first, followed by the Zhang family who had just left.
"Everyone, don't know how you are watching?"
"I'm watching, we will naturally look for you when we finish watching." A businessman said there.
"Alright, I don't know what you think about another thing? It's the matter of the big ship and the small boat picking up and delivering each other." The Zhang family asked again.
"This... doesn't seem to be necessary. We don't have many big boats there. If we distribute some more, it won't be enough. I'm afraid that you can't be too busy. You can carry it by yourself."
Another businessman continued.
The people from Zhang's family don't care whether they agree or not. They just want to know. After listening to the two people, they nodded and said, "In this case, I will go back first, everyone is busy."
…
"Little son, little lady, they also didn't agree to hand over the goods at Dingping. The reason was that there were not enough ships and they were too busy to come." The Zhang family turned around and came to Zhang Xiaobao again.
"Well, get busy, let's get busy together, cuckoo, let's go to the artificial lake in the back. There is also our winery and a pig farm. Others are busy, so we can't be idle."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaobao knew that it was time to do it. He happened to take a stroll while he was okay, and it was not easy for two people to come out at once.
Wang Juan ate the last bite of shaved ice, stood up, and said, "Let's go, I'm going to go boating. After the lake on the side of Yaowang Mountain rises, I will go rowing if there is nothing wrong."
Two people went out busy one after another.
Zhang Zhong was also busy at this time. He recruited a hundred government officials and bought some horses to let people patrol the county. Following the example of Sanshui County, he also bought some small boats on the river and arranged the government officials. Going up, he himself ran back and forth several times.
"Master, there is no way to go forward." Under the protection of the guards, Zhang Zhong rode on a horse and was walking around in the county. At this time, there was a mountain, or a group of mountains, in front of him. The yaman who came said to Zhang Zhong.
This servant is a member of the inner court of the Zhang family. His name is different from others. Even if his household registration is in the Zhang family, he can still be a servant. No one in Huayuan County will pursue this matter. This person was Hua at the beginning. From Yuanxian, I followed my father and grandfather to Zhang's house when I was young.
He knew a little bit more here. After all, when he was speaking, he was more intimate with the locals. After inquiring, he knew about Huayuan County about it, and he followed Zhang Zhong everywhere.
Zhang Zhong stopped and looked at the mountain in front of him. It was really good, and it was so solemn in the majestic one. He asked the person next to him, "Is there someone here?"
"In return to the master, yes, there are two villages here, and they both say that their village is called Xiangshan Village. When they are registered, there is no way. They are divided into Daxiangshan Village and Xiaoxiangshan Village according to the number of people. Taxes are not paid for food, but for animal fur.
Usually they make a living from hunting, sell their prey for money, and buy some things for daily use. Daxiangshan Village has more people, with 25 households and 166 people, and Xiaoxiangshan Village has fewer people. There are 23 households, 143 people, and the two villages usually communicate with each other, as well as intermarriage. "
The yamen knew very well, and they explained the things in the mountains there, and even the population did not fall.
Seeing that the master liked to listen, he continued: "Master, there used to be a temple here, and the pilgrims who came and went would buy some fruits from the mountains. There has been no one in the past two years. The people in the temple have become ordinary people, and the incense is just Then I broke off, and occasionally some people would come over with something to take a look."
"Yeah!" Zhang Zhong nodded in response, and said, "Since there are still people here, I have to go over and take a look. How to say I am also the magistrate of a county to see how they live."
"Master, there is no road ahead. If you want to get to the two villages, you have to wade on the grass. There are wild beasts in the mountains, and there are still some poisonous insects. Why don't you let the people in the village come out and have a look."
The yavier persuaded him anxiously, even if he knew it would be useless.
Sure enough, Zhang Zhong didn’t care about this. When he was walking around recently, the doctor at home dispenses some medicine, as well as the things prepared by the previous hunters. They are not afraid of snakes and insects, and the beasts are even less worried. The guard of a palace is here, even a big insect can be shot and killed with a crossbow.
"Should I go and see in person to see how their lives are? There is no shortage of meat for hunting in the mountains. I think it would be good?"
Zhang Zhong considered the meat of those wild beasts. If he can eat meat, his life will be better.
However, the government officials shook their heads and replied: "Master, they should be said to be the saddest people in the county. When the county magistrate was in the past, they had to send a lot of things to the county every year. They sold meat. It can only be sold to one family, it is Jinlailou.
The price given by Jin Lai Lou is not as good as pork. In the past, it was only to deal with enough food. I asked in the county. Last year, there was a double tax. They went out at night in order to get enough fur. , Three people and two people died in the two villages.
It’s good to be able to eat meat, but people can’t always eat meat. They have to eat other vegetables, which are wild vegetables. They also set up some ground next to the village to grow some vegetables.
But they have to wear clothes, eat salt, and go out to buy rice and noodles. They can do dozens of days of work every year. They still don’t reduce rent or exempt them. They don’t know how they are now. Before the master came, they changed it once. Things never came out again. "
Zhang Zhong listened quietly, his hand clenched into a fist, he really couldn't think of how the surname Wen could do this regardless of the life and death of the people, even when the family was not getting better, he would not treat the dealer. Do so.
"No, I can't just leave it like that. I have to pay for it. His surname should be a thousand cuts. He dismounts, leaving two yamen to watch. The rest of them will take our food and go in with me. , I want to let the people in the two villages know that the change of official is different from the original one."
Zhang Zhong was originally the kind of forgiving and forgiving temperament, but this time he finally got angry. A county magistrate was greedy and corrupted the money in the county’s account to make a fake account. He even wanted to exploit the people in this way. It is the indignation of man and god.
After getting off the horse, he took out the realgar and sprinkled it on his body, and took out a small bamboo box, took out something from it and wiped it on his face, and handed it to the person who was going to follow into the mountain. medicine."
A group of people, twenty-seven, began to walk towards the mountain, twenty guards and six yamen, plus Zhang Zhong himself, the cai could vaguely see where people were walking, and they drove all the way forward.
The sunlight on my head was blocked by the leaves and it was not so dry, but the heat in the woods did not radiate, making it sultry and unbearable. Sweat leaked from the pores, dampening the clothes from the inside to the outside.
Zhang Zhong was wearing official clothes, making him even more uncomfortable. The light green clothes had turned dark green. What I didn't know was that he was a sixth-rank official. The goldfish bag that fell from his waist also made Zhang Zhong grabbed into his hand. , This one can't be lost, everything else is easy to say, this is something that shows your identity.
Regardless of being a seventh-rank official, he still has a goldfish bag. This is the extra benefit of giving something and being the champion.
A group of people walked for an hour, the Ya Ya wiped the sweat from his face, and said to Zhang Zhong: "Master, you can get to the place in less than a quarter of an hour. There is a river there, and the water is cool."
