That night, a total of hundreds of subordinates came to the imperial city. These hundreds of subordinates came from all households and were all brave enough to run out. The head of the family dared not stop them, but these subordinates could not find a place to go either.
, he could only go to the imperial city to join Li Qi.
For these official people, Yu Yunqiu and Ao Shuangqian did not take it seriously.
"I ran away from my family last night, but I didn't stop me. I told the rest of the people that you can leave if you want, and they dare not leave!"
"My brother Yu is the same as me. Let them go and I see what they eat after they go out!"
Yu Yunqiu took a sip of wine: "Brother Ao, it's not me, Yu, that in Xiaodu, no one dares to buy it, no one dares to use it, no one dares to give them a bite of food!"
Ao Shuangqian said, "Brother Yu, I have the confidence too. The clerks who walked out of my house can only wait to starve to death. They want to go to Li Qi, so they asked them to find him. I see what Li Qi takes
Feed them."
Yu Yunqiu sneered, "He said there were no servants within three days, so we wouldn't call them servants. Change their names and call them slaves, which would sound quite pleasant."
Ao Shuangqian nodded and said, "Everything is the same, just pretend to be coaxing him to play."
Yu Yunqiu said, "The most urgent task is to bring the fire horse back."
Ao Shuangqian sighed, "This matter is really difficult to deal with. The key is that Li Qi knew very well and could take revenge at any time. I gave it to him. I guess he would be the first to come to me."
Yu Yunqiu was not optimistic either: "The fire cage is my treasure. If Li Qi checked it, he would be able to find me soon. We will prepare for it. If it really doesn't work, we will tear our faces apart!"
Ao Shuangqian also had this idea: "With Li Qi's lack of clones now, we should really take the lead."
Yu Yunqiu picked up the wine glass, nodded slightly in front of Aoshuang, and the two of them drank it all in one go.
Li Banfeng looked at the hundreds of people in front of him with a grim expression.
It’s not that he is worried that it is difficult to settle, but that he thinks that there are too few people coming.
"I gave my courage to this point, and hundreds of people came."
Zhao Xiaowan was wearing men's clothes and lowered her voice to Li Banfeng, saying, "Thanks to only a few hundred people, there is no food in the imperial city. The surplus food in our family is enough for them to eat for a few days."
"Food is not a problem."
"Then you can't keep them forever, you have to find a living for them!"
"Buying a living is not a problem," Li Banfeng looked solemn, "The only problem is that there are few people."
In the afternoon of that day, Li Banfeng went to Yichong City.
Yizhongcheng is full of factories, and no one is working, but in fact there are a large number of subordinates under the factory.
Li Banfeng entered a shipyard. In the first workshop, the model of a palm-sized person was soaked in a water tank. Various tubes were inserted into the water tank, and liquid of different colors was injected into the tank.
Walking inside through two workshops, Li Banfeng saw continuous pools, each with a small boat more than one meter long soaked in it.
It is hard to say whether this dinghy has practical value. The structure of the dinghy is so complicated that it cannot even sit alone.
But these small boats are very similar to the ship models outside. Could it be that this is the change of the ship models?
Li Banfeng continued to walk forward. During this period, he saw a lot of equipment in the workshop. Some were stirring liquids, some were grinding powders, and walked to the end of the workshop. Li Banfeng saw a vast ocean, and there were no size floating on the sea.
One, seven or eight ships.
Thinking about the boat model in the water tank, the boat in the pool, and looking at the ships on the sea, Li Banfeng roughly understood the process of shipbuilding in Neizhou.
To be precise, these ships are not built, but raised.
They first built a boat model the size of a palm, then built a boat that was one meter long, and finally built a boat that was dozens or even hundreds of meters.
This shipyard has a piping bell. There is a problem with the pipe connection of a ship. The piping bell is scolding the subordinates around him: "How did you check it? You have so many mistakes, haven't you noticed it before?"
The official explained: "I asked someone to check it several times, but I didn't find that these groups of pipes were connected incorrectly before."
Tie Baisheng is also there. He owns shares in this shipyard. He took the drawings and carefully compared them: "These pipes are wrong from the roots, and they cannot be changed. This ship is over for more than ten days.
The effort was wasted."
Banchiling roared at the Liren, "A good boat, it's over, I should throw you into the boiler and cook it alive!"
Tie Baisheng checked again and his professional ability was better than that of the bell: "If I read it correctly, this should have been deliberately connected by mistake. It was wrong from the time of casting the mold. There may be many ships with problems.
"
Banchiling grabbed Li Ren and said, "Do you think I really can't control you? How do you calculate the construction period for more than ten days? You can rework for me now, if you have any problems, I will take your life!"
The clerk did not make any noise, he did not make any excuses, nor did he beg.
He just left silently.
The attitude of the Liren made Banchiling very nervous.
Not only this one, but from the day Li Qi appeared, many of the attitudes of the clerks changed, and the changes became more and more obvious every day.
Banchiling picked up the whip and was about to call the clerk when he suddenly heard someone ask, "It only took more than ten days to build such a big ship?"
The bell was startled and turned around and looked at Li Qi.
To be honest, Li Qi was also shocked. He was not scared by the pin-tooth bell, but by the ship.
In the Dark Star Bureau, he had performed missions at sea, and he had seen many warships, and now the ship under his feet is larger than most of the warships he had seen.
Not only is it big, but even if he is an amateur, it can be seen that the workmanship of this ship is more sophisticated than that of military aviation in other states.
Li Qi suddenly appeared, and the bell could not speak anymore.
Tie Baisheng quickly bowed: "I don't know that your highness is coming, we are in a position to welcome you."
The bell quickly bowed.
Li Banfeng looked at Tie Baisheng and found that among a group of nobles, this person was a bit special.
He reacted faster than others, was smarter than others, and was always able to respond correctly in front of Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng asked again: "Is this ship really built in more than ten days?"
Banchiling glanced at Li Banfeng, and his originally nervous mood gradually calmed down.
There is a rumor outside that Li Qi is unpredictable. Now it seems that he is elusive and is truly aware of his own devils, but in terms of knowledge, he is even an ordinary person and has some timidity. The sentence just now proves that he knows very little about the method of craftsmanship.
Tie Baisheng explained: "Your Highness, this is an ordinary cargo ship, and the thirteen-day construction period is enough."
Li Banfeng said: "What if it is a warship?"
Tie Baisheng said: "There are many types of warships, which depends on what size and what purpose are warships."
Li Banfeng touched the railing beside him: "It's like a warship as big as this cargo ship."
Tie Baisheng thought carefully: "There are many types of warships of this size, and the construction period is about twenty to thirty-five days."
Li Banfeng remained silent for a while, and his expression was very serious.
He once had an idea that in the battle with the Inner State, as long as they consumed it, they would be afraid and no longer dare to attack Prostate easily.
The ancient life of Shang Dynasty sometimes makes people feel that their technological level is relatively backward.
Just like the camp that invaded Baixiao County, a camp with such a meticulous structure can still be moved to Prouozhou. Li Banfeng felt that it would take a lot of time to build that camp. If they destroy one of their camps, they would make Shangguo.
Pay a huge price.
Li Banfeng also believes that the maritime base that was destroyed by the navy will also cost the Turkish country a heavy price.
But now if you think about it carefully, the real situation of things may be very different.
In Li Banfeng's view, the extremely powerful air camp and sea fortress may not be anything to the state.
The decision is correct when trying to avoid head-on conflicts with the states in other states. In terms of technological level, there is a generational difference between the two.
Li Banfeng walked around the cabin: "This good boat has only broken a few pipes. Isn't it enough to repair it?"
Banchiling was quite proud: "If the face is broken, it will leave scars. If the ship is damaged, even if it is repaired again, it will leave old injuries. The ships made by our factory are well-known, so we can't smash the sign for such a thing."
What a generous woman.
Li Banfeng said: "As long as you practice more seriously, it is not considered a sign-breaking one, right?"
Banchiling shook her head and said, "A flawed ship will be rebuilt directly, and it will take a lot of people to repair the ship. I am not rich at all, so I can't do such a thankless thing."
Li Banfeng turned around and looked at Banchiling: "You said that people are not rich?"
Banchiling lowered her head and said, "City Lord, I'm about to tell you about this. You may not know much about the craftsmanship. My shipyard seems to be free of manpower, but there are actually a lot of people working.
There are more than 2,300 servants in my family, but this is not enough. All the people who can be used are sent to the factory, and there is not even a girl around me.
If you ask me to release all the subordinates, my factory will be finished. If all the factories in Xiaodu are finished, this is considered to be your poor management. If you go out, it will make people laugh at you. Do you think this is the reason?"
Li Banfeng really laughed, and Banchiling spoke very straightforwardly.
Seeing Li Banfeng laughing, Banchiling spoke more boldly: "Our Banchi family is really not that curved. I will tell you clearly that I can't live without Li.
people,
I can change their names, just like Tiebaisheng said, first change it to a worker, and stay and stay freely, I will never stop them. When my hands can be moved away, I will slowly and completely change it.
Can you see?"
Li Banfeng looked at Banchiling and said, "Is this what Xiaoduli does now? Change your name, and then you will be a clerk or a clerk?"
Banchiling was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Your Highness, I will tell you the truth again. People in Xiaodu do this! It's not bad for me, so don't force me!"
Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "I'm not here to force you, I'm here to help you. Are you short of staff? I'll send some."
Banchiling was shocked and realized the seriousness of the problem: "Your Highness, who are you going to send?"
Li Banfeng smiled and said, "Common people, common people who have just obtained a free self."
When she heard this, her face turned pale. She knew what Li Banfeng meant. She also heard that more than 100 common people arrived in the imperial city last night: "Your Highness, these common people, I am not sure about this!
"
"Why are you not allowed? Are you short of staff? I asked them to work for you. Remember, they are common people, and they have to live a wage. It depends on their wishes. I will take people in a while.
Send it here.” After saying that, Li Banfeng left the shipyard.
Banchiling was stunned. She stared at Tiebai and said, "Old Tie, you are so stupid, you are saying something!"
Tie Baisheng woke up after a dream: "Ah, what do you want to hear me?"
Banchiling was furious: "Who told you to tell me? You told the city lord that you can't send these more than a hundred people to our factory!"
Tie Baisheng said, "Why can't you? You say you are short of people every day. Isn't it just right to send us some staff?"
"Are you really confused or pretending to be confused?" Banchiling pointed at the several servants working on the boat and lowered his voice, "Do you know who the people the city is sending? They are all servants like them,
But these clerks have become common people now, and they have to pay for their work, and they come and go casually. What do you think of the clerks under my command?"
Tie Baisheng looked confused: "What can they think?"
Banchiling stared at the top of her eyes and said, "The subordinates in the factory are unstable, but now there are such a group of people coming here, and they all live a good life. Can't my subordinates rebel with them?
"
Tie Baisheng nodded: "Yes, you must rebel!"
Banchiling said, "So you have to tell the city lord about this! He can't send the clerk to me!"
Tie Baisheng suddenly realized: "So he was talking about this, why didn't you say it?"
Banchiling said, "I told him just now, didn't you hear me? He doesn't listen to me. You're right. Let's talk to him again. There are so many factories in the city, so let him take them to another place first."
Tie Baisheng nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll go find the city lord now."
When I arrived at the imperial city, Tie Baisheng met Li Banfeng and spoke politely to each other. Tie Baisheng got to the point: "Your Highness, I am here this time to discuss something with you. Can you stop me from being a clerk?
Delivered to the factory of the plate-tooth bell?”
Li Banfeng lowered his eyes and said, "Why can't you give it to me?"
"She said she was inconvenient."
Li Banfeng sneered, "Then who is that convenient?"
Tie Baisheng raised his head and said, "Prince, it's so convenient for me."
Li Banfeng suspected that he had heard it wrong.
I also felt that I had heard it wrong when I stood in the corner of the house.
Li Banfeng's trick was to let the clerk see how a normal person should live.
The people of the post dared not leave because they forgot how to live!
Banchiling is right, this is equivalent to forcing the clerks to rebel. Why did Tie Baisheng dare to take the initiative to accept the clerks?
Tie Baisheng repeated again: "Prince, it's not convenient for the bell, it's convenient for me."
Li Banfeng frowned and said, "Are you a hero saving the beauty?"
Tie Baisheng shook his head and said, "I am not a hero, and I don't think Banchiling is a beauty. I really want more than a hundred people."
Li Banfeng said calmly: "I can remind you that they are workers, not subordinates."
"I have been in another state, I know what the workers look like, I know the difference between them and their subordinates, I am willing to let the subordinates be free, I sign a contract with them, not a contract for the contract, but a contract from another state, I give them the contract.
Wage,
They also promised that they would decide to stay or not. "In order to prove that they had been in another state, Tie Baisheng's tone of speaking changed.
Li Banfeng asked again: "Aren't you afraid that the subordinates under your command will rebel?"
Tie Baisheng shook his head and said, "Not afraid! I am the same with the subordinates under my command. As long as you promise to help me, I will burn all their contracts when I go back. They will be workers from now on."
Li Banfeng still doesn't believe it: "Don't you feel at a disadvantage when doing this?"
"No loss," Tie Baisheng shook his head, "Workers work is different from those of the subordinates. Working with money is definitely different from being forced to work by being whipped.
Workers live faster. If a cargo ship made in thirteen days is replaced by a worker, I guess it will be made in ten days. Three of the ten ships of the subordinates will make mistakes. If it is replaced by a worker, there may not be one of the ten ships.
An error occurred in the ship,
I have made money in other states, and I know I can make more money like this, but in Qidu, I dare not do this."
Li Banfeng said, "What if I borrowed you the courage?"
Tie Baisheng took a deep breath: "I'm sorry, I'm not brave enough, you have to lend me a few more."
Li Banfeng said: "How much do you want?"
"Three!"
"Which three courages, please tell me."
Tie Baisheng said: "I have always wanted to have more people to run factories, but according to my identity, the number of subordinates under my command cannot exceed the Ao family and Yu family. Now I don't want subordinates anymore. I hire workers. I think they are
It shouldn't be possible to limit the number of employees I hire."
Li Banfeng nodded and said, "They can't limit you, I said."
Tie Baisheng had three points of courage, raised his head and continued, "I want to ask for more territory and build the factory bigger, but I can't use some territory. I have to follow the distribution of the Ao family and the Yu family."
Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "Don't listen to their assignments. As long as I assigned them, you can use this place, I said."
Tie Baisheng was braver again, straightened his waist, and continued, "If some raw materials are not nodded by the Ao family and the Yu family, I will not be able to buy them now."
Li Banfeng said, "It doesn't matter whether he nods or not. As long as I nod, you can buy it, I said."
Tie Baisheng stood up and kowtowed to Li Banfeng: "Thank you, Prince!"
Li Banfeng pulled Tie Baisheng up: "Stand up and speak, I said."
Tie Baisheng really didn't feel anything. He quickly brought all the contracts of all the clerks to sell their bodies.
Li Banfeng called a man to verify the matter on the spot. The man's name was Basuan.
It took less than ten minutes to compare the eight-performing quotations, and the names and names of more than 2,300 clerks were checked correctly, exactly the same as the list provided by Tie Baisheng before.
Tie Baisheng brought these two thousand three hundred clerks to the gate of the imperial city. Under Li Qi's gaze, he and the clerks ignited the fire and burned the contract to sell their bodies.
When the people lit the fire, the torches kept trembling because they couldn't hold them.
Shun stood behind Li Banfeng and shivered.
The contract for sale was burned, and the people of the clerks shed tears, and Shun also shed tears.
"City Lord, our contract for sale has not been burned yet--""
Li Banfeng said: "You are no longer a clerk. I will burn it for you."
A group of nobles and officials looked at Tie Baisheng coldly, with a hint of chill in their eyes.
Tie Baisheng was a little scared, but after a while, all the nobles and officials who were watching him lowered their heads.
These nobles and officials found that someone was also watching their firelight. Li Banfeng glanced at each nobles and officials, and his eyes made everyone shudder.
Eight counts to see the fire, calculate the location, and fan the air towards the fire.
The flames flew into the air with paper ashes.
The people of the post shouted loudly, Li Banfeng couldn't hear what they were shouting, and they didn't know what they were shouting, and they were shouting with all their might.
The lady used the sound cultivation technique to help them shout, and the whole city could hear it.
When he returned to the imperial city, the lady sighed: "Young Master is right, Yu Yunqiu and Ao Shuangqiu are indeed not the key."
Li Banfeng said: "Because there are so many people who can replace them."
"Don't my husband go to Tiebaisheng's factory to take a look?"
"We must see it. At this point, we must not deceive you." Li Banfeng held his wife's hand, "Let's go together and see their methods."
When we arrived at the shipyard, Tiebaisheng paid the workers the wages for that day first.
The wages are not much a day, so the workers are given thirty and the workers are given ten.
Many people from the post saw their wages for the first time, but they didn’t know what to do after getting the money.
It was the first time Tie Baisheng gave money to Xiaodu. The people under his command had no experience and counted the money and did the accounts. Tie Baisheng had to do it himself. After sending the money, Tie Baisheng looked at his pocket watch and it was over.
It's time.
According to the previous rules, the people who worked as a servant just ate some peat and then went to bed. It was still early now, and they didn’t know what to do.
If Tiebaisheng ordered and continued to let the people live, they would not object.
But Tie Baisheng is a smart person. Since he has made a decision with Li Qi, things must be done according to the rules of other states. He will get off work after finishing work and will not have to do it today.
He prepared a new contract book and was willing to work for him for a year, with a large worker of 1,500 yuan a month and a small worker of 500 yuan.
This is much more than the daily wage. Many workers have signed contracts, and Shun is one of them.
But there are also many people who don’t want the contract, and they are worried that this thing will turn into a contract for selling contract.
Regardless of whether it is signed or not, it will not delay getting off work. The free-spirited servant walked out of the shipyard and looked around.
I don't know where to go.
The commoner Zhao Yeqing, carrying a lantern, came over with a dozen friends and shouted to everyone: "Everyone, are you eating? My restaurant is newly opened, three money is enough, five money is enough, and ten
The money is light, do you want to try it?"
Go to a restaurant for dinner?
Everyone was in a vague manner, but they didn't know whether they were qualified. In Da Shang, the clerks could not enter restaurants.
Zhao Yeqing understood their concerns and smiled at everyone, "I'm here to invite them, it depends on whether you can give me a favor."
He touched the copper coins in his hand. He originally made porcelain, but he could only work as a small worker at the shipyard, and today he made ten money.
He couldn't bear to leave it all for nothing, so Qingpiao didn't want to think about it, but it was okay to have a good meal.
There was a woman named Huan, who was originally a porcelain business and met Shun. She walked to Shun and asked in a low voice: "Go to go to the restaurant?"
"Okay!" Shun made up his mind, accompanied Huan, and followed Zhao Yeqing to the restaurant together.
Many other clerks also followed.
Li Banfeng looked at Zhao Yeqing and whispered: "This shop owner is a smart person, a person who can make a lot of money,"
It's like a person who can do big things."
The lady smiled and said, "Shadow Yeqing, fireflies, bright eyes, and business is clear, but there are also people who are not transparent. This bullhead girl is not very meaningful."
There was a quarrel in the factory, and Li Banfeng took his wife to watch the fun.
The slinging bell pointed at Tiebai's nose and cursed: "What do you want to do, a bird man? I asked you to ask the city lord for a few days, and you let all the subordinates in your factory go. What does it mean?"
Tie Baisheng laughed and said, "It's not interesting. You can do things according to the city lord's instructions, and you're not wrong."
Banchiling said, "You really know how to gild yourself. Are you doing what you are told? You are clearly taking advantage of the situation and want to make a fortune from it."
Tie Baisheng smiled unchanged: "It's right to say that. Isn't it just to make money in business?"
Banchiling gritted her teeth and said, "Remember to me, don't worry about my subordinates. If anyone dares to run towards you, I will kill each one!"
Tie Baisheng stopped laughing: "Lingzi, for the sake of friendship, I would like to remind you that Xiao is no longer a member of the country. This matter is a foregone conclusion and no one can stop it.
People cannot be killed casually. What are the consequences of the life of Caoying? It is placed at the gate of the imperial city. You can think clearly about it yourself."
Chapter completed!
