Chapter 245 Arrangement(1/2)
In the steaming room.
Qin Huaidao leaned against the big wooden barrel and closed his eyes to rest. While feeling He'er's pressing, he felt his bones smooth and even his bones were crisp. He'er wiped his tears and pretended to be happy and said, "Young master, no one is bullying me, I'm just happy. By the way, Princess Yuzhang often comes after the war. They said that the young master married Princess Yuzhang, is it true?"
As he said that, his hands stopped, tears in his eyes full of tension.
Qin Huaidao felt He'er's nervousness, had some guesses in his heart, and said bluntly: "He'er, it's true, the holy order is hard to violate. What do you think of Princess Yuzhang?"
"The princess is very good, has a noble status, a gentle personality, is well-educated and kind, and is good to us servants. If we enter the mansion in the future and become the hostess of this mansion, our life will be better." He'er said quickly, but his voice was a little trembling, full of worry and confusion.
Qin Huaidao affirmed the guess in his heart, grabbed He'er's hand and smiled: "No matter who becomes the hostess in this mansion in the future, you will always be the young master, unless you don't want to."
"He'er will take care of the young master for the rest of his life." After getting the promise, He'er smiled happily, the little worry in her heart disappeared, and she was full of vitality, and she removed some kind of burden.
"Don't cry anymore, the bitter face is not good-looking. Come and help your young master change his clothes." Qin Huaidao smiled, got up, stepped out of the bucket, put on clean new clothes with He'er's help, rubbed He'er's head, touched his head, and said softly: "Don't think about it, I'll take you away in a few years."
"I understand, Young Master, Thank you!" He'er received such a straightforward promise and felt even sweeter as honey. Her face turned red and she lowered her head, wishing she could find a crack to get in.
"Let's go, go to eat."
"Yeah!"
The two walked out of the room and came to the restaurant. The shopkeeper and Xue Rengui and his wife were both there. Everyone sat together. After drinking for three rounds, Qin Huaidao looked at Jia Youcai: "Uncle Jia, let's talk first."
"Young Master, the Lu family of Fanyang has found coal mines in Qi County north of Tongguan, north of Weinan and Chencang. They are being excavated vigorously. The price is slightly lower than ours. In recent months, our coal has not been sold, and they are all piled up in Qinjiazhuang. Fortunately, the young master has returned, and people in Qinjiazhuang are currently in panic."
"Can't sell it?" Qin Huaidao stopped the chopsticks, and the specific locations Jia Youcai mentioned just now appeared in his mind, which were farther away than Tongchuan. He asked curiously: "Uncle Jia, it's not easy to transport the place you mentioned just now to Chang'an. The cost is high, and it's best to sell it in Fanyang Lu's."
"No, but they just sell it cheaply, fifteen pennies per cent." Jia Youcai said angrily.
"This is a malicious price cut, trying to force us out so as to achieve the purpose of monopoly and increase the price in the future. Since that's the case, I won't sell it, just keep it for myself." Qin Huaidao said indifferently.
Jia Youcai didn't understand what monopoly, so he panicked when he heard that he didn't sell it and quickly said, "Yes, without this business, what should I do if there are two thousand sips of food in Qinjiazhuang?"
"Don't worry, I'll find a way." Qin Huaidao said indifferently. Selling honeycomb coal is a temporary measure. It has low profits and is still hard-working. It just happened to take the opportunity to cancel it and asked, "Is there still food?"
"There is still a lot of food, but we can't make money, and we're panicked."
As long as there is food, it’s a good idea. Qin Huaidao looked at Liu Shi: “Sister-in-law, have the fairy fruit sold out?”
“It was sold out two months earlier.”
"Thank you for your hard work, the store is temporarily closed. He'er, calculate the bill of Shenxian Fruit for me separately. Let me see the account of Qinjiazhuang again. What's the situation in Qinjiazhuang?" Qin Huaidao said and looked at Jia Youcai again.
"The honeycomb coal cannot be sold, so I just asked everyone to stop. However, the young master left before the blue bricks, tiles, cement and lime were not stopped, and the warehouse could not be installed, so two more were built, and the straw was stopped trading. Everyone was looking forward to the young master's return every day, and the fish pond was also waiting for the young master to make his idea."
Qin Huaidao pondered for a moment and reminded: "Uncle Jia, remember that there are more openings upstream of the fish pond to bring in the river water. The openings are covered with bamboo nets to prevent fish from running away. There are more openings on the pond bases in the middle. They are also covered with bamboo nets, and the same is true for the lowest flow. There is only one purpose, so that the water can flow and circulate, and block it during the dry season to avoid the decrease in the pond water."
"This is easy and can be done soon." Jia Youcai solemnly agreed.
"After that, we purchased grass carp, silver carp, bighead carp, red sturgeon, herring and other fry, and each species of fry was first put into each pond." Qin Huaidao reminded that the red sturgeon was a carp, but the carp was renamed as the surname Li.
Jia Youcai was worried that he would not remember, so he quickly went to get paper and pen. Qin Huaidao waited patiently. Grass carp removed weeds in the pond, silver carp and bighead carp were water purifiers, red sturgeon male fish, herrings snails and mussels. These fish live in different water layers, do not interfere with each other, and can complement each other, which can fully play the greatest role of the pond water. But these explanations are too troublesome and difficult to say more, just let everyone do it.
Not long after, Jia Youcai came back in a hurry. Qin Huaidao and the other party wrote it down and continued: "High a thousand ducks in the pond and a thousand acres of water. No problem, find an open space to build a house for the ducks to rest at night. In addition, it doesn't take too much to plant some willow trees at the base of the pond."
Ducks are active and constantly float, comb and play on the water surface. On the one hand, they can directly press air into the water. The duck manure not only contains a large amount of unabsorbed organic matter, but also contains more than 30% crude protein. They are all top bait for fish. Even if the duck manure that cannot be eaten directly by pond fish can be decomposed by bacteria, release inorganic salts, and become a nutrient source for plankton, promote the reproduction of plankton, and provide bait for silver carp and bighead carp.
Ducks are also omnivorous poultry, which can feed dead fish floating in fish ponds and fallen off fish body lesions in time, thereby reducing the spread of pathogens. Ducks can swallow many fish enemies, such as water centipedes;
Ducks can also remove moss and algae that grow because the pond is not thorough enough; ducks are active in fish ponds, and harmful water birds dare not land on the water surface at will; ducks swim and wash their feathers, causing the duck parasites and dander to fall into the water, and for food to fish, reducing the infection of the duck's parasites themselves.
When the duck is big, there are duck eggs. When marinating it, it is also a delicious dish. Then it becomes roast duck, which is another business. It can be said that raising ducks is of great benefit to raising fish. As for willows, willow bark is also of great benefit to fish skin diseases, but it is also too troublesome to explain.
Jia Youcai didn't ask much, and wrote it down carefully.
Qin Huaidao finished the meal with a few kids. Seeing that Jia Youcai had recorded the same records, he took a brush and paper and drew a suggested architectural drawing on it, with a square of the characters on it, two floors, a staircase, a small yard at the door, and a kitchen and a toilet at the back. Draw a few more to form a row, then mark the data and push it to Jia Youcai.
Jia Youcai's eyes lit up and he asked, "Young Master, is it the room?"
"Yes, I can't break my promises from everyone." Qin Huaidao said, taking out another piece of paper, drawing a topographic map of Qinjiazhuang, marking it on it, and explaining: "Uncle Jia, these marked places are gentle slopes and no one uses them. It is most suitable to build a house. If it rains, you don't have to worry about entering the house. The kitchen and toilet are built at the back, and one floor is enough to build a drainage channel for everyone to use. The drainage channel uses cement to prevent leakage, and is concentrated here in a unified manner."
As he said that, Qin Huaidao pointed to a low place and added: "Dig a septic tank, no one is allowed to urinate or defecate in the future, but Qinjiazhuang will not be hygienic."
"What is a septic tank?" Jia Youcai was a little confused.
Qin Huaidao drew a sketch of a septic tank, marked the dimensions and explained: "There are three grids in total, and the middle partition wall is built with bricks. The height of the hole must be based on the size. There must be no mistakes. Lay a board on it, and then go to the concrete. The concrete is made of sand, cement and small stones. Each row is a septic tank, and several rows are built, and a single row is opened. It is not enough to use the manure in concentrated use for fertilizer."
"Remember it and go and do it later." Jia Youcai quickly agreed, his heart full of joy. He was finally able to build a house. Qinjiazhuang was waiting for him.
"There are a lot of things recently. I went to Qinjiazhuang in a few days. By the way, the people of Zhaojia Village treated them equally and asked them to build them near the cave where they live. One set per household, and the wages will not be paid. In the future, the house payment will be deducted. He'er will look back and calculate the cost of each set."
"How many newly married couples have recently been? "
"Even if the family is divided, it's better to recover the cost if you don't lose money."
"I understand, then the entire Qinjiazhuang has to build two thousand units. Will there be too many?" Jia Youcai was a little worried.
"Are you worried that the materials are not enough, or?" Qin Huaidao asked back.
"There are enough materials, but if you don't have enough materials, you can do it yourself. The mansion doesn't make any money, and it's probably not enough to build so many people, so the speed will be slower."
"Don't worry about manpower issues. Everyone is in a hurry to live in a new house and will definitely work hard. In addition, build a cement road from the top of the mountain to the exit of Qinjiazhuang, you must be able to run a heavy carriage." Qin Huaidao said as he drew a winding line on the top of the top of the mountain and told him: "There can't be built a house a hundred meters near the top of the mountain, and the trees cannot be cut down. It will be of great use to keep it in the future."
"Don't worry, young master, and ensure that everything is foolproof." Jia Youcai promised with confidence.
"Is there any money left?"
"There are some more that can last for a while."
Qin Huaidao nodded, looked at Xue Rengui and smiled, "Brother Xue, tell me what happened to you."
"Two things, first, not long after you went to war, a group of people touched Qinjiazhuang and were completely destroyed by the guard team. Judging from the weapons and the last time, it was probably the same as the Wang family in Taiyuan. I heard that the Wang family in Taiyuan was transferred by the lord General Xu Shijie to copy it, and I don't know whether it is true or not."
"The Taiyuan Wang family is involved in rebellion, which is absolutely true."
"That's great. These bastards deserve it. There is one more thing. In the past three months, there have been people trying to enter Qinjiazhuang to inquire about the technology of making blue bricks, tiles and coke. The sealing of the village is not possible. They are killed repeatedly. Some people have bought people from Qinjiazhuang to find out the news." Xue Rengui continued.
When Qin Huaidao heard this, the people in Qinjiazhuang were beaten and asked, "Is anyone betrayed?"
"There are three. Fortunately, the core firing technology is mastered by the guards at the mansion. I pay attention to it every time I burn it. People are not allowed to approach it, and I don't know if it is leaked. Uncle Jia is worried about leaking the secret and keeps the person responsible for the firing in Qinjiazhuang and is not allowed to come out. After a long time, I am worried about resentment."
"How do you deal with the betrayer?" Qin Huaidao's face darkened. There were always ungrateful wolves who were unfamiliar.
Xue Rengui glanced at Jia Youcai.
Jia Youcai smiled bitterly and said, "All the descendants of the old brothers, they can't take ruthless measures, and they did not cause any substantial damage. They beat them up and left nothing."
"How can the rules you promised at the beginning not follow?" Qin Huaidao's eyes turned cold, and he looked at Jia Youcai and said seriously: "No rules are established, otherwise everyone will imitate them in the future and will be very annoying. You must deal with them seriously. You told Huang Lao and the others that you must be expelled from Qinjiazhuang because you are not killed for the first offense."
Jia Youcai hesitated for a moment, nodded and agreed, "Let's do it afterwards."
"Uncle Jia, human favors cannot be abused. If you maintain the three of them, you will hurt more people's hearts. Rules are rules. You are also an old corpse. You should know the importance of rules. In the future, such things will be left to Brother Xue. If someone betrays the interests of Qinjiazhuang, the whole family will be killed without mercy."
"Here!" Jia Youcai and Xue Rengui felt Qin Huaidao's anger and murderous intent, and quickly agreed.
Qin Huaidao did not insist on killing people, but had to use heavy punishments to prevent them. In the face of interests, human nature cannot stand the test. There will be more technology in Qinjiazhuang in the future. If it leaks out, the loss will be great. He asked with a cold face: "Brother Xue, is there anything else?"
"Some people peep outside the village, and it is difficult to punish them if they don't enter the village. It is not justified and there are hidden dangers of exposure." Xue Rengui added.
"Then build a wall to surround the entire Qinjiazhuang. You can hire people from outside to repair it, stirring bricks, cement, lime and sand to make adhesives, and do it simultaneously like building a house."
"Remember." Jia Youcai agreed.
Qin Huaidao pondered for a moment, and felt that nothing was important, so he looked at Xue Rengui: "Brother Xue, the training of the village guard team cannot be pulled down. In addition, you can secretly recruit about 100 people. The standards are the same. As a reserve team, the training will be handed over to you. I have great use."
"Don't worry, ensure that the task is completed."
After the main matter was discussed, Qin Huaidao signaled everyone to go and took He'er to the study. He'er brought a thick stack of books. Qin Huaidao read it page by page and knew it. He found that the Qin family village had a lot of expenses, and there were about 20,000 yuan left in 100,000 yuan of silver, but each transaction was a must-have expense. However, Shenxianguo made a profit of more than 100,000 yuan.
After closing the account book, Qin Huaidao reminded He'er: "Let's go back and give Brother Xue 10,000 yuan of dividends. This is agreed in advance and can't be delayed anymore. Brother Xue should have his own house in Chang'an."
"I'll do it later. Young Master, don't worry. However, if you can't sell honeycomb coal, how can we live in the future?" He'er asked worriedly.
"I brewed a lot of wine last time, and the few people in the house are already skilled. If you arrange someone to buy wine and come back to process it, you must keep it confidential. After the brew is finished, you can take it to the Dongshi shop to sell it. I also asked my sister-in-law to be responsible for the sales. A small jar of ten ten cents are available."
"Will it be too expensive? I'm afraid no one cares about it?" He'er reminded.
"It doesn't matter if no one buys it. At least the popularity is made, and the name is Zhenguan Zui. The emperor promised that it will only sell small jars. Each person is limited to one jar, and only 50 jars are sold per day, so it cannot be sold for more."
"Why is this?" He'er looked surprised. Others were eager to sell too much, so why did she still limit the sale?
Qin Huaidao didn't like to explain what hunger marketing is. He thought it was troublesome and smiled and said, "As long as you do, your young master has his own considerations. He is worried that someone will rob him wildly, so the shop arranges two guards to protect him."
"Remember." He'er quickly agreed. Thinking that Qin Huaidao always made a move, he was different from others, but in the end it proved that it was right, he was too lazy to ask more questions.
"There is another thing. I have to buy more empty rooms in the mansion. This time I came back and brought a lot of wool and cowhide. I went back and made wool clothes and cowhide boots to sell. Another box of money was paid. You took the time to find a house nearby to make a workshop, and then transferred the young sisters in Qinjiazhuang to make clothes and shoes inside."
"Cowhide boots are good, but what can wool do?"
"Let me tell you how to do it. Prepare first. Your young master is tired. Let's take a nap and keep the account book." Qin Huaidao said as he left, and returned to his bedroom and fell asleep.
I have been rushing on the road for several days, and my body is exhausted and my bones are about to fall apart.
The next morning, Qin Huaidao woke up and was resurrected with blood. He was feeling comfortable all over. He saw He'er sitting by the window, making a woman-red woman. The sun was just right. He came in through the window and fell on He'er's fair face. His luster was holy, his expression was quiet and focused. His long eyelashes blinked, and he opened and closed, as if he was smiling.
Looking at this scene, Qin Huaidao felt a primitive impulse, wishing to hold the other person in his arms to pity him, and knew that He'er would not refuse at all, and even was happy. However, when he thought that the other person was only sixteen or seventeen years old, his body had not grown yet, and he could not cause trouble, so he suppressed his thoughts.
Perhaps because of hearing the movement, He'er turned around and smiled sweetly, like the warm sun, flowers blooming in the mountains, elegant, fragrant, refreshing, and the faint smile on the corner of her mouth was even more fascinating, and she wished she could indulge in it.
Qin Huaidao couldn't help but whisper softly as he looked at this scene: "I'm laughing at you, I'm smiling, a cup to the white clouds, a cup to the rest of my life."
"Young Master, what did you say?" He'er looked surprised.
"It's nothing, nonsense." Qin Huaidao stood up with a smile.
To be continued...
