Chapter 77: The Enclosed House
"Sir... what you said? Is it true..."
"Even if there is no increase in money, we will still do things and work..."
Compared with the Baoyuan Bureau workshop where Wang Siqi went to, the clothes of each craftsman in the Banknote Bureau were more tattered than what the craftsmen there originally wore, and it was obvious on everyone's face.
Dishes.
This skinny feeling is obviously caused by long-term malnutrition.
Any powerful country.
No craftsman with mastery of skills should be treated like this. Wang Siqi did not smile playfully but said sincerely: "This matter was not decided on a whim, but after careful consideration."
"You can completely believe this."
"And not only that, from today onwards all craftsmen will eat three meals a day in the cafeteria of Baoyuan Bureau, and everyone will be given a piece of clothing... Every quarter, one more piece of clothing will be given for changing seasons."
.....
Want to do good things.
Naturally, it is impossible to just work on people.
"Have you figured it out? Where did the raw materials for the Banknote Bureau come from... No, I don't even ask where they came from. I just asked who gave permission to transport them all.
of."
There was a faintly captivating light in his cold eyes, and Feng Zongwu said quickly: "Sir, I've found out...it's Xu Min."
Ministry of Industry, that is indeed the case.
As expected, the old boss of Baoyuan Bureau is still resentful of the independence of Baoyuan Bureau. The constant changes in the situation have made Wang Siqi more aware of what kind of environment he is facing now, that is, everything seems to be in peace.
Behind the scenes, there are dangers and murderous intentions everywhere.
To attack Baoyuan Bureau is to attack yourself.
There is no essential difference in this point. It can even be said that you are pushing yourself through the invisible hand.
"Arrange the manpower and let's go to Xu Min's house to pay a visit. I want to see how powerful this doctor from the Ministry of Industry is."
Feng Zongwu was stunned for a moment, and then said with some worry: "Master Wang... Isn't this not good? After all, he used to be the Shangguan of our Baoyuan Bureau, and now he comes directly to the door like this, right?"
"You've already said what's wrong... Shangguan, that was in the past, but now I'm the only official in the Baoyuan Bureau!"
At this point, Feng Zongwu understood immediately.
He is not an unreasonable person. Since he has chosen to follow Wang Siqi, he must go to the dark side without hesitation.
"I understand, sir, I'm going to prepare now!"
"Don't just make preparations, go to my house...and ask Wu De to bring some more people...then tell Chen Zhi and ask him to bring some people too, let's go together!"
"I'll do it right now, sir!"
...
In Xu Min's mansion, a loud and clear sound came from deep in the courtyard. Many servants in the family did not dare to raise their heads after hearing the sound. They just quickened their steps or moved their hands for fear of annoying the family members.
That adult.
"What on earth do you do for food! Qi Demao, tell me... hmm? Where is my money? So much money, I asked you to buy giant trees, and you swore to tell me that things went smoothly, now tell me all these giant trees
Can’t take action?”
"Brother-in-law...it's not all my fault. Didn't you say that these wood will be collected by the Ministry of Works in the end..."
"Fart! It's not the Ministry of Works that has the final say in Baoyuan Bureau now. Naturally, this money won't be sent to the Ministry of Works. I'm not asking you to make money..."
"How much silver did you spend to buy it? How much silver will you sell it for, even at a discount?"
"How can it not be sold at all?"
Hearing Xu Min's words, Qi Demao was even more frightened in his heart. He could only stumble and said: "There seems to be some problems with the giant trees I bought at the beginning. I have asked many people, but no one is willing to take over so many trees."
wood..."
Xu Min frowned.
As if he had caught the omission in Qi Demao's words, he kept asking: "What do you mean there are some problems? What problems can there be with the wood? Can't you do such a small thing? I tell you... Qi Demao, no matter what
My money cannot be reduced at all, I will give you half a month to send back every penny you have!"
"Otherwise? Hum hum..."
Half a month?
Qi Demao was stunned on the spot for a moment, and suddenly he knelt on the ground with a bang. Tears instantly burst out and he cried loudly: "Brother-in-law! I really don't know what the hell is going on. Where can I get half of my money with so much money?"
I can put it together in a month!”
"Besides, it's really not my fault!"
Seeing Qi Demao's appearance, Xu Min felt very sad in his heart, even though he knew that his money would be like a piece of meat and he would never get back a penny.
But he still refused to give up and said: "Then do you know where all the giant trees in the capital have gone... Originally, I thought that all the wood is in our own hands, and there are many places up and down that need wood...
"
"I tried to stop me from buying any wood, but now it's good that we can't even sell our own wood to the Ministry of Industry!"
"This...this...brother-in-law, those pieces of wood seem to be defective."
"Defective product?"
"As for other high-quality wood, I don't know where they have gone... But I heard that Baoyuan Bureau recently bought a piece of land in Jurong County and is preparing for large-scale construction. A large amount of materials are shipped from the capital every day
Transport it over there.”
"And they are all of good quality, especially the wood. They are definitely of good quality. Since they have so much wood in their hands, I'm afraid they must know where the giant trees in the capital have gone."
Although Xu Min felt as if he had been cut by a knife at the thought of questioning Wang Siqi himself, as long as he could curb the high-quality wood business that pops up from time to time in the capital.
Then there is still a way for me to avoid losing too much.
.....
Just when Xu Min was thinking hard about finding a reason or an excuse to meet Wang Siqi, he saw his servant running into the backyard and shouting: "Sir, something happened!"
Xu Min was shocked when he heard this!
He said sharply: "Tell me clearly, what happened?"
"Someone has surrounded our entire courtyard, and there are people everywhere... The little one just showed his face when he went out, and he was almost beaten to death!"
The mansion is surrounded by people?
Xu Min suddenly panicked. Could it be that the incident happened to him? The Jin Yiwei came to arrest him?
So he forced himself to be calm and said: "Do you know the identity of the person coming here? Is he the Jin Yiwei?"
Chapter completed!
