www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Young Master Fierce!
The fifth day of the seventh lunar month in the eighth year of the Xuan calendar is sunny
There were about thirty people sitting in the inner courtyard of Xishan Villa.
Among them are Yi Yu, the foreign affairs housekeeper from Linjiang Fu Mansion, and Zhang Ce, the housekeeper from Xishan Villa. Then there are Master Liu who is in charge of making wine, Feng Laosi who is in charge of mining limestone, Wang Er, Wang Qiang who is in charge of looking for the lost son, etc.
A simple platform was set up under the shade of the tree. Fu Xiaoguan was standing on the platform at the moment. Yi Yu and Chuck were sitting on both sides of him. There was a small table in front of them. On the table were pen, ink, paper and inkstones. .
The atmosphere was a bit solemn, because the people sitting below were all craftsmen and farmers. They had never seen such a scene before, and they didn't know what the young master's family wanted to do with this battle.
Fu Xiaoguan took two steps on the stage and said, "I invite you all to come today because this is the first extremely important meeting of our Xishan Villa. Everyone should listen carefully. Butler Yi and Butler Zhang I will write down the key points I said and send them to everyone after the meeting. If anyone is illiterate, the two of them will be responsible for explaining it to you until you understand it completely."
Meeting?
Is it like government recruitment?
Don't talk about the following people, even Yiyu Chuck has never had such an experience. So everyone felt it was very fresh and stressful, because Master Fu looked very serious when he spoke.
The audience was very quiet. Everyone was really attentive and listened carefully.
Su Mo stood on the second floor and listened very carefully. He didn't know what tricks Fu Xiaoguan would play again.
"Everyone has seen the large piece of land outside the courtyard. It is now just flattened and there is nothing on it. But next, you will see earth-shaking changes in that land."
"I will build a research and development center there, where many professional talents will study the most cutting-edge technology. I will also build several large factories there, which will produce exquisite things."
"I want to tell you one thing. The Fu family has been included in the imperial business. The things produced by our Fu family are for the use of His Majesty the Emperor and those nobles. Here, I want to commend Liu, who makes the wine. Master, the purchase of the Xishan Wine Royal Family has been completed, and you have contributed a lot. I will give each of the winery workers 300 coins, Master Liu will receive 3,000 coins, and the other masters will receive 1,500 coins!"
Boom...
The crowd suddenly exploded.
No one understood what Fu Xiaoguan said, but they understood the money thing.
Everyone looked at Master Liu. Master Liu didn’t know this before. He looked confused at this moment. Is this the young master who wants to reward me?
But that wine was clearly invented by the young master?
This is not okay!
Master Liu stood up, the crowd was quiet, and Fu Xiaoguan looked at him with a smile.
"The villain deserves it. This wine was invented by the young master. The villain will never dare to take the credit."
"No, it is true that I proposed this wine, but you are the one who executed it, and many of the subsequent improvement methods were also thought up by you. This is your credit. Follow me and you will be rewarded. But I’ll leave it at that, if anyone dares to reveal my Xishan secrets, I will be punished.”
The smile on Fu Xiaoguan's face faded, and a murderous aura suddenly broke out. Even Su Mo suddenly frowned.
The people in the audience were suddenly shocked. On this July day, they felt a deep chill.
"I really know **** someone!"
The murderous aura subsided, and a smile appeared on Fu Xiaoguan's face again, like a spring breeze. The moment just now seemed like a dream.
He really killed someone! Su Mo made a judgment.
"Master Liu, please sit down. The other person I want to reward is Feng Laosi. He found the gray stone for me and is now mining it. This matter is extremely important, so I want to reward Feng Laosi to five thousand yuan! The two housekeepers Write this down and distribute the money after the meeting."
The crowd was in commotion again, working for the young master’s family, it turns out that this is possible!
Five thousand coins, a full five taels of silver!
The eyes of everyone looking at Fu Xiaoguan became enthusiastic. At this moment, Fu Xiaoguan was just shining silver money in their eyes!
"Next, I have several tasks to arrange. First, I need to find a kind of clay. This stuff is red or brown, usually by the river, but of course it may be elsewhere."
"Second, I need a lot of bricks and tiles. I remember that Master Tang at the meeting is a bricklayer. I will leave this matter to you."
"Third, if you have women at home, plant flowers in your own yard or on the hillside. I need a lot of flowers. I will pick them during the flowering season and send them to other courtyards. One pound of flowers will cost one hundred cents."
There was another sensation below. This is much more cost-effective than growing food. It does not take up any land and you only need to wait on it for a while to make money. Of course everyone is willing.
"Stay here if you are willing to plant. Go to Zhang Guan's house to collect the seeds. When you get back, the villagers will also let you know. I hope our village will be filled with flowers."
"Fourth, I need to build a larger waterwheel, at least five times larger than the current one. Leave this matter to Zhou Zheng, you are a good carpenter."
"Fifth, Feng Laosi, I want to give you another task. I need iron ore, and you have to help me find iron ore."
"Sixth..."
"..."
No one knows what Fu Xiaoguan's long list of needs is for.
But everyone knows that as long as you do what Master Fu said and do it well, you will make money, big money!
Everyone followed Yi Yu and Chuck to the outer courtyard. They were responsible for explaining that this was not a good job. These mud-legged people had hardly read books and they could not understand many things. So, the two of them were divided into two groups. , almost held a second meeting to explain.
Fu Xiaoguan was also very nervous about arranging everything in detail. At this moment, he finally calmed down and thought about it carefully. There are still many missing parts. I will fill them in later.
He was lying on the couch drinking iced bayberry soup when Su Mo came over.
"What on earth do you want to do?"
"Let them live a better life."
"Is this the purpose of building a school?"
"Of course, it is always good to have more people who can read."
This was the first time Su Mo took the initiative to talk to Fu Xiaoguan. He asked again: "Are you looking for saltpeter and refining sulfur to make their lives better?"
Fu Xiaoguan was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile: "This thing has great uses. For example, if you want to open a mountain, it will be very troublesome if you dig it manually, but it will be very simple if you have explosives."
Su Mo frowned, "What about iron ore? Iron ore is something controlled by the imperial court, how dare you get it?"
Fu Xiaoguan really didn't realize this problem. The fact is that he didn't know that this thing was controlled, but he had to get the iron ore. What should he do?
"How can we mine it?"
"You must have official approval."
After thinking for a while, he said to Chunxiu: "Xiu'er, grind the ink."
Fu Xiaoguan wrote a letter to his father, Fu Daguan, and left the matter of these papers to Fu Daguan.
If Officer Fu couldn't handle it, he decided to try Dong Shulan. Of course, it would be best to resolve the matter in Linjiang.
