Tianxing staggered back to the Lord's Mansion while humming folk songs. He smiled and greeted each official or servant who greeted him. Such a leisurely demeanor had not appeared on Tianxing for a long time. After Tianxing walked by
, everyone is happy for Tianxing's transformation. After all, Tianxing represents the entire territory, and his mood has a huge impact on the territory. In short, everyone is happy when Tianxing is happy.
"Master, what happy thing happened to you? Did you pick up gold coins while walking?"
Lan'er, who was cleaning up the study, saw Tianxing walking in with a smile on her face. It's rare to see Tianxing with such an attitude recently. Lan'er and Tianxing made a little joke, because they have been worried about money every day recently, so joking...
Get money to open it.
"It can make people happier than picking up gold coins, do you want to know? If you want to know, please ask me! How can I know that you want to know if you don't ask me? I don't know how I would think of telling you? Please ask me! Just ask me
If you beg me, maybe I can tell you? If you want to know, just beg me."
Tianxing has been forced hard by Lan'er recently. Now that he has a solution, of course he wants to show off. After all, he is only 20 years old now. He talks a lot of nonsense. It's just that he wants Lan'er to beg him. Okay.
It was just to satisfy his vanity. After all, he had lost too much face in front of Laner in the past few days. Tianxing wanted to find some face back, so he kept saying it over and over again.
Seeing Tianxing's appearance, Lan'er smiled softly. She continued her work. As the first servant Tianxing bought, Lan'er has been responsible for Tianxing's daily life and food. Even though she is now an administrator, she still helps when she has time.
Tianxing tidied up some debris. For example, when I was waiting for Tianxing in the study today, I saw that the study was in a mess. So while I was waiting for Tianxing, I started to help Tianxing clean the study. Tianxing told Lan'er many times about this, but
No matter what Lan'er said, she still went her own way. In Lan'er's words, these were the things a servant should do. In the end, Tianxing gave up completely and continued to let her correct herself and let her do whatever she wanted.
"Huh? Where did this tea come from?"
Seeing that Lan'er was just tidying up the study room without any interest, Tianxing found that the little girl who used to be strong had become mature and steady, and the environment was really troublesome to people. Lan'er didn't ask Tianxing, but she felt very uncomfortable.
Originally, he thought that Lan'er should be under more pressure than him and would react greatly when she heard his words. Then he would tell her his plan under her envious eyes, which would give him a great sense of satisfaction.
But now Lan'er didn't seem to be interested in it at all, which made all Tianxing's preparations in vain. Finally, Tianxing sat down on the chair and picked up the tea cup and drank it, but he immediately found that this cup of tea was different from the previous one.
There is a big difference in the tea. The color is better, the taste is more fragrant, and the aftertaste is endless, so I asked in surprise.
"You! Seeing me every day is like seeing some terrible monster. I was originally going to tell you about this tea today, but you ran away without a trace as soon as you saw me. I want to talk to you
You said there was no chance."
Hearing Tianxing's inquiry, Lan'er put down her work, sat on the chair next to her and said sadly, as if she had been wronged a lot, tears streaming down her face as she spoke.
"Ah! Don't cry! Aren't I busy? Lan'er is the most gentle, look! What a mess my study would be without you. Who said Lan'er is a beast? I'll cut him into pieces.
When I see you, I don't even have time to stick to you, so the horse will hide? This is definitely a rumor, who told you, I want to teach him a lesson."
Tianxing immediately panicked when he saw Lan'er's appearance. The most embarrassing thing Tianxing sees is women's tears, so he explained clumsily.
"Master! I'm just a purchased servant. You don't need to comfort me. The tea you drink is a newly developed tea. In the past, the tea leaves were just picked and dried. Now you are drinking tea that has been processed through other procedures.
The tea leaves taste better. Such tea leaves have been developed recently and should be able to sell at a higher price. Now that the tea leaves are all mature, as long as the processing is good enough to go to Kingdom or Maple Leaf, a large amount of money can be exchanged for greatly alleviating the problems we are experiencing now.
economic pressure."
Seeing Tianxing's appearance, Lan'er's demeanor suddenly changed. She seemed to have thought of her own identity and said with low self-esteem. She was just a servant purchased by Tianxing. She felt that she was a little out of control. She immediately gathered herself and told the origin of the tea.
.It turns out that due to the good policies of Tianxing Territory, it attracted a large number of craftsmen with various skills to join.
Among these generals were craftsmen who had some research on tea. They changed the previous tea sales model in Tianxing Territory. In the past, Tianxing Territory lacked craftsmen who knew how to make tea. They just dried the tea leaves and shipped them out in large quantities in exchange for funds.
.These tea leaves are processed by craftsmen in other places and sold to various places. This is the main reason why the tea production in Tianxing Territory has increased but the profits are not very high.
Now that the territory can process tea by itself, I believe that the profit from tea sales will soon double. The profit from specially processed tea is several times higher than that from rough processing, so Lan'er's immediate thought was to tell Tianxing,
It's a pity that Tianxing was scared away when he saw Lan'er and didn't know the good news until now.
"This is good news. We should reward those craftsmen well. They have helped the territory a lot!"
After hearing Lan'er's explanation, Tianxing's first thought was to reward those craftsmen. The contributions of these people are even more prominent now that the territory is short of funds.
"Well! I have rewarded them, and there is also news from the mining area that we can make our own weapons and equipment. In the future, we can sell weapons directly. I believe that it will not take long for the territory to truly prosper. These are the
The credit of the craftsmen. Master, I decided to establish a new department called the Scientific Research Department, specifically to absorb those craftsmen and strive to develop more practical skills."
Then Laner came up with a new surprise. In the past, the Tianxing mining area was the first to sell ore. Although the ore was a cost-free trade, the profit of ordinary ore that had not been processed was very low. Later, Tianxing sent a group of ordinary craftsmen, and finally
They no longer sell raw ore, but instead sell processed iron ingots. Now Lan'er has brought new news that the territory can use the iron ore to make weapons, which means that the territory can directly sell finished products and arm its own army in the future.
You must know that half of the Tianxing army is still training with wooden weapons. Only a thousand people actually wear standard weapons. The others are inferior weapons snatched from bandits and horse thieves. It can be said that the current weapon configuration of Tianxing's army is
It's very complicated. The main reason is that Tianxing has no money to help the army replace equipment. The normal consumption has already made Tianxing exhausted. Where can the money come from to arm the army?
"Okay! It's accurate! Lan'er, you did a very good job. I realized at that time that you were extraordinary. It seems that my vision is really not that accurate. Wow haha!"
Tianxing laughed happily after hearing this. With the export of tea and weapons, will he still worry about money in the future? The answer is of course no. The good news today is really one after another! It is inevitable that Tianxing will be so happy.
"I knew you didn't have any good intentions at that time! Humph!"
Hearing Tianxing's words, Lan'er was obviously very unhappy, but the excited Tianxing didn't hear Lan'er's whisper at all. She was happy, too! Tianxing has been afraid of poverty for so long. Being able to get rid of poverty is Tianxing's biggest dream now.
Looking at it this way, with these two pillars plus the taxation and poverty of the territory, the word poverty is finally far away from him. He no longer has to worry about money. How can he not be happy? Tianxing even saw his warehouse filled with gold coins.
, his hands were cramped as he looked at the small mountain of gold coins in front of him.
"However! Master, all this takes time. The output of weapons is not high, so it cannot play a fundamental role in the short term. Although the tea has matured, it takes time to make, and it also takes time to convert it into funds. After all, it still needs time.
Ship it to other places and sell it. The materials in the warehouse now only have enough supplies for seven days at most. The main problem is that all officials, soldiers, and workers have to be paid the day after tomorrow. Master, we don’t seem to have enough money! To be precise, you will go bankrupt the day after tomorrow.
I am already in debt, and I will soon owe a large amount of money, because the remaining money is no longer enough to pay wages."
Seeing Tianxing's demented look, Lan'er's words were like needles that pierced the beautiful bubble of Tianxing's imagination, and made Tianxing feel cold to the core with a snap.
"You mean that I will be in debt the day after tomorrow? Didn't you say that I can still hold on for seven days? Why will I go bankrupt the day after tomorrow?"
Tianxing had no idea that he only had enough money to survive for one day. It felt very bad to fall from heaven to hell, so he asked without giving up.
"It's enough for seven days without payment. The problem is that the day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow, so you, master, will go bankrupt in advance. Master, if you don't find a way to find a large amount of gold coins before payment is made, there will be more people wanting to pay than before.
Several times."
Seeing Tianxing's rosy cheeks turn pale instantly, Lan'er felt helpless. Everywhere in the territory required money, but unfortunately the territory didn't have any money yet. She looked at Tianxing sympathetically and waited to see what Tianxing could do.
