The construction master named Wang Laogeng whom He Zhigao was looking for was taken by He Zhigao to Bestore and met with Lu Fang several times.
He is said to be a construction master, but in fact he only builds houses for others. But at any rate, he is considered a small contractor.
He is still somewhat famous in the construction industry in Ningyuan.
He is indeed much more reliable than He Zhigao. He can understand the drawings drawn by Lu Fang except for small details.
They even calculated the approximate cost required to build the entire winery.
Building a house, repairing roads, etc. will cost no less than fifty thousand taels of silver.
That's it, of course, not counting the distillers and other equipment that need to be purchased in the winery. Not to mention tables, beds, etc.
Fortunately, Lu Fang was mentally prepared.
Even if it costs one hundred thousand taels, it is still a good deal.
After all, if the mass production can reach one million catties per year, that will be sales of two million taels.
After deducting all costs and expenses, it shouldn’t take long to get back the money, right?
After taking Wang Laogeng to see the place, he asked Wang Laogeng to recruit craftsmen and prepare to start construction.
However, the financial power was still placed in the hands of He Zhigao, and then He Xuquan supervised it.
With He Xuquan here, I should be able to find inappropriate places on my design.
Wang Laogeng received a fixed monthly salary of ten taels of silver.
This has made Mr. Wang even more happy, his face flushed with excitement.
In the past, he could only earn three to five taels at most every month. It had to be a busy month.
Twelve taels per month, which is definitely the highest salary in Ningyuan County. Even Luliang, the county magistrate, is far inferior in terms of salary alone.
In this way, the construction of the new winery has begun.
Before the actual groundbreaking day, Lu Fang personally went to the hillock to kill three animals, offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, and pray for peace.
Craftsmen these days all believe this.
As the boss, he was also looking for good luck.
But Lu Liangkai was not allowed to attend.
Logically speaking, it is definitely a big deal for Ningyuan County Government to locate such a large winery in Ningyuan. However, Lu Liang is about to be transferred, so there is no need to stand out.
It was on this day that Lu Liang's transfer order officially arrived in Ningyuan.
Such transfer orders were delivered through the post station in Dayu Dynasty. First they went to Tanzhou Prefecture, and then the Tanzhou Prefecture government arranged for people to be sent to Ningyuan County.
Lu Fang had just returned to the good store from the hill when he saw Lu Liang standing in the store.
What are you talking about with Chen Youxi?
He walked in and asked, "Why are you here?"
Lu Liang turned around and said: "The transfer order from above has been issued. I am asked to take up my post in Youxian within five days of receiving the transfer order."
Are you leaving after all...
Lu Fang nodded and led Lu Liang to the backyard.
At the moment when it was time to leave, I still felt a little reluctant to leave.
His vegetable farm, wine shop, and even the Bestore store in Ningyuan are still in their infancy. This is actually not the best time to leave.
But there is no way.
Walking to the backyard, Lu Fang asked: "Then who will take over your position? Is there any news?"
He is still most concerned about this matter.
Lu Liang shook his head and looked at Lu Fang, "Didn't the princess give you any news?"
Lu Fang shrugged and said, "I haven't been to Tanzhou in a while."
I really felt a little guilty in my heart.
He didn't go to Tanzhou, but Liang Siqi didn't send anyone over either. Could it be that there was something unexpected about taking over?
Lu Liang added: "But this time, the government office asked Master Zhou to exercise the power of the county magistrate first. Hey, this is not normal. Liu Mao probably has no hope."
"You didn't tell me earlier!"
When Lu Fang heard this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
It made me worry so much just now.
Also, how could Liang Siqi not even be able to win a county magistrate?
It must be her arrangement to let Zhou Fang act as the county magistrate, right? To avoid Liu Mao from causing trouble to her?
Lu Fang suddenly became a little curious and couldn't help but chuckled: "Does Liu Mao know about this? What's his expression?"
Lu Liang said: "What other expression could there be? When the people from the government came to ask Anchor Zhou to act as the county magistrate, they were dumbfounded. Haha, I saw the corners of his eyes twitching non-stop. This time he lost face.
It’s quite embarrassing. When the government officials left, he followed him out, and he must have gone to Tanzhou to find Pan Kui by now!"
"Ha ha!"
Lu Fang also burst out laughing when he heard this, "Fetching water from a bamboo basket was in vain."
What's strange is that he didn't receive Liu Mao's hatred value.
What on earth is this guy thinking?
Just as he was wondering secretly, he heard Lu Liang say: "By the way, there is one more thing. The government office also handed down a decree from the imperial court at the same time. The imperial examination... will be restructured from this year on. In previous years, the Ming Jing, Ming Fa, Ming Zi
, Mingshu and other subjects are all included as minor subjects, and there will no longer be any separate selection. Scholars, candidates, and Jinshi achievements are all based on Jinshi subjects. In other words, in the future, all scholars in the world must pass the Jinshi subjects before they can enter the court and become officials.
Already."
His expression was a little complicated.
This is indeed a very big restructuring.
"Deputy subject?"
Lu Fang was a little stunned.
Lu Liang nodded, "Jinshi is a major subject, and the merit is based on the results of the main subjects. For minor subjects, you can get extra points as appropriate. Do you understand?"
Lu Fang frowned.
Of course I understand.
Isn't this the same as extra points for specialties in the college entrance examination in previous lives?
This person from the Great Chongqing Dynasty has quite a bright mind! He can even think of such a method.
In this way, not only will it not stop the path for talents with knowledge of laws and calculations to enter the court and become officials, but it may also encourage scholars to work harder in these areas.
It is definitely a good thing to avoid having a court full of nerds.
I just don’t know if it will make this year’s Jinshi exam more difficult.
Those who study Mingfa, Mingshu and other subjects, with extra points in these minor subjects, they should also seize a lot of fame, right?
But I soon became happy again.
Mingfa is about Dayu law. I don’t know much about it, but Mingshuang, after all, I am a person who has studied calculus. Is there anyone who knows arithmetic better than me these days?
Even if there is, I still have the hate value of the search engine!
This sudden reform of the imperial examination system was a waste of points for myself.
"Are you sure?"
Lu Liang looked at Lu Fang and suddenly giggled, and asked in confusion.
Lu Fang shrugged, "I'm still a little sure."
Lu Liang didn't know where his confidence came from, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just sighed, "When you go to high school, maybe it will be difficult for us to talk like this in the future..."
Lu Fang also fell silent after hearing this.
yes……
When he achieves fame, he will probably join the court as an official?
Will Lu Liangtian and Lu Liangtian be separated by then?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but hesitate a little whether I should take the imperial examination or not.
In fact, he didn't have many thoughts about it, and he felt uncomfortable joining the court as an official. However, he agreed to Liang Siqi.
never mind.
Whatever!
Let’s talk about it after taking the exam.
Liang Siqi only asked herself to take the imperial examination, but did not say that she would become an official.
