Chapter 211 Investment Consultant

Lao Xu is a master in accounting. He is good at mental arithmetic, faster than abacus, and has a 100% accuracy.

Guard Xin and the team leader below reconciled the accounts. Before they could use the abacus to find out the results, Lao Xu had already given the correct number.

After sweeping the yard, he sat at the office door to rest. When he heard the settlement inside, he replied casually.

These are more than a dozen groups, and nearly a hundred groups of numbers are added together, so you have to dig a bit for a while if you use the abacus.

However, after they finished counting, Lao Xu immediately gave the answer.

Guard Xin added it according to the abacus, and it turned out that one counted exactly.

I was not here at that time, and the team leaders of each group didn't care.

The guard Xin was very concerned. When I returned to the office in the evening to listen to his report on his work, I specifically mentioned Lao Xu's skills.

The next day, I called Lao Xu to the office and tested it repeatedly for several rounds. I confirmed that he was a real mental arithmetic genius, so I arranged him to the accounting team.

When Lu Xiaoxia learned about this, she went to the river to catch a bucket of shrimps and gave it to me, saying that she was thanking me for promoting Lao Xu's thanks.

"As long as there are real people, there is the most suitable position for him." I did not accept the thank-you gift, and asked him and Lao Xu to have extra meals at night. They suffered a lot in the prison, and the big pot on the island was just full.

I finally had some "meat" and just keep it for myself.

"Well, I believe the island master is Master Qingtian!"

"Don't use adjectives randomly. Go back and pick more pecans to nourish your brain."

"Oh~" Lu Xiaoxia scratched her head habitually and grinned.

He said that Lao Xu was jealous of his colleagues before and was framed by his design and was "exiled" to the village.

Otherwise, with Lao Xu's ability, it would be fine to do accounting at the home.

He has been unfair for Lao Xu, but year after year, Xiao Xu became Lao Xu, and his chances of finding another "talent" are becoming increasingly slim.

"Life is long, and no one knows what will happen before the last time I die." I didn't expect to come across this world and meet these people.

"I will work hard and never give up until the last moment."

Lu Xiaoxia ran away with a bucket, but I just said it casually. Did he teach him a lesson by accident?

Lu Xiaoxia worked more and more seriously, until she was meticulous.

Lao Xu changed into new work clothes, went to my office and bowed.

This action was filled with a lot of emotions. He didn't say a word, but his waist was straighter than before.

I don't need him to speak, and I know his emotions.

It probably means "I will never thank you for your kindness."

For me, work is work, and whoever is suitable will do it. I am not doing charity.

But they got the second time in their lives, the opportunity to start over, and I can fully understand their excitement.

The prisoners sent by the Sage Castle and other countries came to serve as slaves instead of pirates. If nothing unexpected happens, they will spend the rest of their lives on the island.

The original country, monarch, and yamen no longer have the right to control them.

Their future of life and death is all in my hands.

Of course, I use talents when I find them, and I have no scruples. I am not afraid that talents will be lost if they are well trained.

The Lord of Haixian Castle is also quite good at it. There are no old and weak among the pirates. Most of the prisoners he sent were young and middle-aged. Occasionally, there were a few elderly people, who were also healthy and had no diseases.

Everyone praised Ajing's skills in the pile of carpenters. He used his rest time to make a dressing box with the remaining wood on the construction site, and there was a pair of combs inside, which were divided into men's and women's styles. The box had earrings and small hangers, which were very exquisite.

There are carved patterns inside and outside the box, and the style is simple and elegant. He made it and sent it to my office, saying that he was thankful for giving him the opportunity to regain the old art.

The box is a universal model for men and women, so it is not only for me to give it to me, but also for Yunzhou.

But he couldn't get the best wood at the moment, so he made it with other materials first.

If he has the chance in the future, he will definitely make another set of the best for me.

The precedent for receiving gifts cannot be opened. Although he really wants to thank him, I am afraid that someone will follow suit and cause trouble.

But there is no need to return it. I asked the guard Xin to give him money and said that I like his works very much. The wood is not worth much, and his craftsmanship is precious.

In this way, he can receive private work on the island. I allow him to earn some extra money without delaying his job.

He is particularly good at making exquisite and complex small wood products. There is no one among the carpenters on the island who is good at this technology. Women ask him to make combs and some daily necessities. Ah Jing is very happy to take on small work, but he doesn't have much money, which shows that he really loves this industry.

Considering the needs of the island’s personnel, a boat will bring back many daily necessities every week, and those in need can buy them.

Working on the island only requires food and accommodation, such as soap pots used for washing clothes and food, rice, oil and salt used for cooking small stoves, you have to buy them yourself.

One of them wants a bottle of vinegar and the other has to pack salt. There is no way to ask someone to bring such fragments back.

When the big ship goes out, it will buy a whole box and a whole jar, and when it comes back, it will be sold separately.

If you want to build a city on the island, shops are necessary.

According to the drawings drawn by Mr. Kang, leave space for road construction and first build the shops on both sides.

When it doesn’t rain, the earthen road can be walked, but the work will be stopped on rainy days.

When a hirer thinks about how to work, my boss has to think about how to make money and can’t just sit there and spend money!

I sold the precious medicinal materials I brought from the north, and the merchant I hired from the first mate also arrived.

He brought one back, and I was a little disappointed.

As soon as this only seedling was met, I immediately gave me a "surprise".

"She is the island owner? She doesn't look like a good person!"

The businessman brought back by the first mate was a "homeless man" in his thirties.

He was dressed in a torn manner, and his hair was so oily that it was rolled out.

A charcoal pen is used as a hairpin, and a pair of hole-hole shoes reveal their toes.

I thought to myself: You don’t think I look like a good person? Then you’re right!

"Yes, I'm not a good person." I nodded sincerely.

The first mate quickly calmed down the atmosphere and smiled and said, "Don't worry, the island master is angry. He has fallen to this point because of this mouth. I don't know how many beats you have been, but I promise, you have no problem doing business!"

"No problem? If he scolds all the customers, it's okay?"

"No, no, no, it's definitely not OK to talk about business. His unique skills depend on the market."

"What depends on the market?"

"He said that if you can increase the price of something this year, you can increase the price of something. According to what he said, you can make sure you make money."

"Oh? So magical?"

"Really, if the island owner doesn't believe it, leave him for a month to try it. If his predictions are not accurate within a month, you beat him and throw them into the sea to feed the fish."

“My judgment is never wrong.”

"That's it."

"Master Xie Island gives him this opportunity!"

The first mate's reaction was even more intense than that of a homeless man, and his mouth was faster than that of an ear.

"Is he your relative?" I asked.

“我表弟,不过他家里没人了,娘母临终前拉着我的手,要我一定多帮衬他,他父母已故,又无兄弟姐妹,三十的人了,连个家都没成,根本没姑娘敢嫁他,他在外边见天挨揍.”

"If you need it, come to me. I can help you make him silence and write when you predict the market."

"No, no, no! You show mercy. He is not easy to talk about marriage. If he becomes a mute, he really can't find a wife. I have to let my aunt down."

"Only food and accommodation are included during the probation period, please find Mr. Zhang, who is in charge of the dormitory, and arrange a place for him."

"I told you that there is no chance. She didn't even ask me what my name was. It must be because of your pretext that I was embarrassed to chase the person directly, and planned to take me in for a month before chasing me."

The two walked out of the office, and the homeless man held in for a long time before he said it.

"Don't beautify you, who is the island owner? Face? Humph, if she is not satisfied, it will be useless for anyone to introduce her. Don't say you are chasing you, it is possible to kill you directly and use it as fertilizer for the vegetable field."

"Then...will you be with the king like a tiger? Or a great tyrant!"

"Shh! Keep your mouth shut, you will know how terrible the island owner is, but as long as you work hard, she will not treat you badly. You should control your own mouth. It really annoys the island owner. It is not as simple as a beat, you will be worse than death."

"I know, I try my best to do it, don't you care about the meal? When will the meal start?"

The two gradually walked away, and the guard Xin kept laughing.

His desk was in the corner opposite me, closer to the door.

He heard the words of the first mate and the homeless man in a real way.

"Very good, I will promote me like this in the future." I picked up the account book and looked through it carefully.
