When it was close to noon, Cai Jingfang asked someone to find the two of them and told them that they had finished recording.
Ling Qingyu returned to the front yard and entered the main room. Cai Jingfang had already sorted and put away the recorded papers. After Ling Qingyu sat down, he said, "It's roughly out. Most of them are from the east and west roads of Jingdong, and some of them are from the east and west roads. They know how to weave. There are more than one hundred women here, and there are as many as forty people who came from Qingzhou alone. The Dongjuan silk in Qingzhou is the best silk. I am afraid that we will find no one in the weaving workshop. These people should be you It is said that Ding Dong is interested in young lads who are also willing to go to sea, these few here are physically strong and have some martial arts skills."
"Know some martial arts? Then sell yourself?" Ling Qingyu took the stack of papers and asked.
"It's really helpless. In order to let the family members have a way of life, I heard that when Mr. Zheng went to select men, the men only need to be young and strong. Oh, these few, I was the only one, and I was really looking for There is no food left, so we sell ourselves together." Cai Jingfang said.
"Well, remember these people and ask Ding Dong to see if he can find their family members when he goes this time." Ling Qingyu picked out some people's information and said.
"There are a few here. They were originally made in the winery. When the famine started, the winery was robbed and the owner was killed. They had to flee from the famine. Look, should we also open a winery? And these, good farmers, these few, used to grow peonies in Luoyang, ah! You must like these, they can cook!”
Ling Qingyu glanced at him, and heard him continue: "Some here say that they are good at embroidery, these here can read and count, this one says that the vegetables they grow at home are delicious, this one says they can make pickles, these few A woman said that she is very strong and can do any job. By the way, there are more than 20 children here, most of them are orphans, and the other half are with their parents. The whole family sold their bodies together. There are more than 30 young boys and girls, all of whom look good, how do you think about the arrangement?"
"Well, those who cook and make pickles go to the restaurant. The wine shop will do what you said. Since we have a master, we will build one ourselves. The alcohol content in the north is relatively high, but it is suitable for extra sales. Those who can read and count, just Leave it to you to take care of, learn from the old shopkeepers in the original shop, and promote those who are capable to be shopkeepers in the future. You can directly hand over these people to Ding Dong. As for these, stay in the yard by the West Lake. The nursing home is pretty good, these embroiderers, you can put them in the weaving workshop to see how the craftsmanship is. If the craftsmanship is really good and there is a suitable shop, you can consider opening an embroidery shop. There must be a lot of skills in Hangzhou. Good embroiderer, please collect more embroidery, these extras are easy to sell. Take a look at these women who are strong enough, it is better to put them in the weaving workshop to do chores or put them in the yard. Children, those with parents Just follow my parents first, if there are no parents, leave it to Yan San, by the way, find a few teachers, arrange a place for a school, some children are too young, learn something first, these girls, help me find a good one Nursing nuns take the lead first, these youngsters," Ling Qingyu rubbed his forehead, and said, "You and Yansan Dingdong should be separated. By the way, it's a family, try to adjust as much as possible."
Walking out of the main room, the people outside gathered in front of the room, looking at Ling Qingyu expectantly.
Ling Qingyu cleared his throat, and said: "The jobs arranged by each of the big guys will be explained in detail later by Shopkeeper Cai. In the selection, the salary will be paid according to the actual work performance of everyone. If you do well, you can get extra money. If you don’t do well, I’m sorry, but you won’t get a penny. Those who have won fifty consecutive praises , the head of the family will return his contract of sale, ten consecutive negative reviews, then I'm sorry, the head of the family will also sell it. Do you remember?"
"Remember!" Someone replied loudly, with an uncontrollable joy on his face. Unexpectedly, there was still a possibility of being free.
"Then if we all get good reviews, will you pay them all back?" Someone asked with a smile.
"Naturally! The head of the family never breaks his promise."
"Then the body deed is returned, so can't you just stay here and do things?"
"You'll get it if you sell it again." Someone beside him said with a smile.
"Okay, come to the front. Those whose names I call will line up according to the division of labor!" Cai Jingfang came out with a stack of lists and shouted.
Seeing everyone queuing up to Cai Jingfang's place, Ling Qingyu walked up to those scholars with a smile, and said, "Gentlemen."
"It's good to be in charge." Several people bowed to each other.
"Several of you are scholars. If it weren't for this natural disaster, I'm afraid there will be a few masters this year. Please take back this body deed. If you are willing to continue studying for the exam, our Ling Family Firm is willing to support it. If you are willing Cooperate with Ling, then Ling also has a lot of shops that need to be managed, I don't know what your intentions are." Ling Qingyu smiled.
"Since Han has already signed the body contract, he can't do such untrustworthy things. Why don't we follow what the head of the family said just now, if Han gets fifty praises, then return the body contract to Han?" , although the clothes were torn, they still couldn't hide the handsome young man's voice.
"I, Tang Tiancheng, are the same as Brother Han."
"I, Zhou Hao, are the same as the two brothers."
The other three, after thinking for a long time, each took back their own deeds, and one of them said: "Chi has some experience in arithmetic, and can help the head of the family run the shop."
Ling Qingyu looked at the other two and saw that they did not speak. Thinking that they were going to continue the exam, he said with a smile: "If the two gentlemen want to continue the exam, they also need a place to stay. I am going to set up a school for those children. , can you please teach the children first?"
The two looked at each other, and Fang replied: "It's very good."
"What's your name Han?" Ling Qingyu asked the first man.
"Han Bian."
"Han Xin?"
"No, it means Bian, which means leaves." Han Bian replied.
That's right, Ling Qingyu took a few more glances at Han Bian, she remembered that Cai Jingfang told him that the one with the very beautiful handwriting was called this name, the character and handwriting were both good, it all depends on the actual ability.
After Cai Jingfang classified the people, Ling Qingyu looked over one by one, checked the information, and then appointed the first batch of stewards. The weaving workshop determines the performance and quality according to the quantity and quality of each person's specific weaving. The salary is the same for the dyeing workshop. The restaurant is divided into several departments and managers, and there are other shops. Ling Qingyu made Tang Tiansheng, Zhou Hao, and Chi Chang, a scholar who is known to be proficient in arithmetic, as accountants for different shops. , specializing in the material circulation, price accounting, manual calculation and inspection of each pavement.
When it was announced to everyone that the children would be sent to the school of the Ling Family Firm, and that a gentleman had been invited, and those who had special skills could teach the students when they were free, the parents of those children knelt down and kowtowed.
There were more than 80 young men who were willing to board the boat. Ling Qingyu saw a few of them were throwing up on the boat, so he walked over and asked, "Actually, there are also people on land. It’s much bigger from Haizhou.”
Those men laughed foolishly, rubbed their hands together and said, "We know the head of the house, but we can get used to it. Afterwards, I didn't feel uncomfortable when I vomited."
There are about 20 people who are capable of Kong Wu and have a foundation in martial arts, and they are willing to be nurses, so Ling Qingyu appointed Shang Qi, the leader among them, to be the team leader.
After a lot of excitement, at night when they arrived, everything was roughly arranged, and the sailors went back to the ship first.
So the fire was set up, cooking was done, and the room was arranged. Cai Jingfang was going to the shop and gathered the leaders of the yard together, and explained the address. He wanted to bring people there tomorrow, and he would make arrangements one by one.
While waiting for the return journey, Cai Jingfang was so tired that he reversed the car and fell asleep.
Han Bian sat silently in the car and looked at Ling Qingyu. Ling Qingyu didn't arrange any work for him, but called him when he left.
"Han Bian, Xiaocai can't do it alone. I want you to help him. I also want to buy some fields and mulberry forests. You will be responsible for these things, okay?" Ling Qingyu looked at Han Bian and said.
"Yes." Han Bian said with a slight smile. He was born in a farming family, and the family originally had a small field, and there was only this only son. Although he was used to study for him since childhood, he did not waste the work in the field. Last autumn, he was going to participate in Qiu Wei, but his parents died of a sudden illness. He went home to observe his filial piety, but encountered a severe drought. Han Bian distributed all the food stored in his home to the villagers, and got himself out to flee famine Haizhou couldn't go hungry anymore, so he simply sold himself to survive, and the food he sold was also given to others.
"One more thing, those children are our hope in the future. I don't want our school to be perfunctory. Brother Han, the head of the school, I will also entrust you with responsibility." Ling Qingyu paused and said: "The two Scholars, first, I guess they won't be able to teach for long, it's just our school, not teaching children to take the imperial examination, what I want more is talents who can learn practical knowledge."
"For example?"
"For example, opening a shop can make more money."
"Pfft," Cai Jingfang opened one eye, and said, "You have to teach me this." If you want to talk about fooling people, you can say that you are second, and no one dares to say first.
"Xiaocai, you and Brother Han should cooperate well. When I come back next year, I want to see that the business of our Ling's business, weaving workshop, wine shop, restaurant, and Xiangtangtang are all doing well." Ling Qingyu blinked After blinking, he said again: "The courtyard by the West Lake is not easy to take care of, don't worry, see if you can buy a connected house in the city, you also need to have a place to live."
"Understood." Cai Jingfang nodded, tilted his body, and continued to sleep.
In this way, it can be regarded as some foundations. Hangzhou is a big city with more than one million people. In ancient times, this was an incredible population. After all, she is not familiar with this era. Now she only has money in her hand and Cai Jingfang is so talented. to plant these seeds. Perhaps, none of these seeds will germinate, and it is impossible to say that all of them will lose money, but as long as one is made, or a few more stand out from these people, her business empire will not be a dream. Shipping can make huge profits, but those profits have to be rooted and deeply integrated with the country's local economy, so that there is more room for it. Ling Qingyu faintly felt that if he really followed his own way of thinking, there might be a bigger crisis, but now some people have just started, and they can't control so much.
In the next few days, the Puzi Zhifang School will start construction and purchase goods for the Fengshen to go to sea. Ling Qingyu, Cai Jingfang and Han Bian run every day without touching the ground. They just gather for dinner at night and communicate with each other about the progress In some time, Ling Qingyu will discuss some farming matters with Han Bian. Ling Qingyu was surprised by Han Bian's familiarity with farming, so he would also share some technologies he saw in modern times with existing technologies, such as the improvement of polder fields and the cultivation of fast-growing forests. It has sprouted, but has not been vigorously promoted. Or discuss with Cai Jingfang about the management of pavement, the control of raw material use, the increase of production, the upstream and downstream relationship of product circulation, and the formation of monopoly. Every time Ling Qingyu talked casually, thinking about it, Han Bian and Cai Jingfang later brought a booklet with them, and when they heard something that touched them, they recorded it by themselves.
