Chapter 77 Prodigal family will be contagious
Shen Zhongxin opened several secret letters and read them carefully for a long time.
An old face looked uncertain at first, and finally turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
"boom!"
The old guy put his palm on the desk.
The pen, ink, paper and inkstone fell to the ground.
The servants and guards outside stayed far away.
I didn't dare to go near the study room at all.
The furious Shen Zhongxin is like a ferocious beast that chooses people to devour.
Shen Zhongru, who was opposite him, was so frightened that his heart trembled.
He moved his stool back, intending to avoid the sharp edge temporarily.
"Be bold!"
"hateful!"
"Shu Zi, how dare you bully me?"
"In half a month, more than 7,000 fine iron farm tools were sold in the three counties?"
"Each one weighs two kilograms, which is nearly 15,000 fine iron!"
"If you sell it to me, it will be enough to make five thousand knives."
It's called knife making.
It refers to the three-jin Pu knife with the same specifications in Dazhou.
It's at the ten-refinement level and the quality is pretty good.
Shen Zhongru cut off several beards in succession, feeling resentful in his heart.
A few days ago, he went to Lushuihe Village again.
As the third uncle of the family, I personally visited the house and showed a gentle appearance.
He already gave Shen Lin a lot of face.
But that brat can't get enough of him.
Not only did he deny his ability to forge fine iron knives.
Shen Zhongru was not even allowed to visit the workshop in the backyard.
It makes the old guy angry.
Shen Zhongru opened the cloth bag he carried with him and took out a shining sickle.
"Second brother, it's just a ten-level simple sword, what the heck?"
"Take a good look at Nan!"
"I asked several old blacksmiths to appraise it."
"These fine irons have reached the level of twenty refinements, are they still farm tools?"
"It's just a murder weapon, isn't it?"
Shen Zhongxin snatched the fine iron sickle and wiped the blade lightly.
Truly extraordinary!
A trace of greed flashed in his eyes.
However, years of qi-nurturing skills and the main line’s huge family fortune.
As a result, Shen Zhongxin's eyelids are not that shallow yet.
After a full quarter of an hour, he suppressed the idea of taking a risk.
We haven't reached that point yet.
Shen Lin is nothing.
Just an insignificant little person.
Not as a last resort.
He didn't want to arouse the anger of the boss in Beijing.
After all, eldest brother Shen Zhongxiao is quite fond of this kid.
What if I completely fell out with Shen Lin?
Will the eldest brother leave him alone?
Anding County is the most prosperous and wealthy county in the north.
Every position in the county is coveted by countless people.
There is no big tree like Shen Zhongxiao.
He, Shen Zhongxin, really may not be able to secure his position as county captain.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhongxin ordered.
"Lao San, continue to monitor Shen Lin and Wu Qi's every move!"
"It doesn't just include the number of refined iron farm tools in various places."
"Also, the draft of his cargo ships must be followed up and investigated."
"Ignore those who go in."
"What's shipped out is the most important!"
Shen Zhongru nodded tacitly.
"Don't worry, brother."
"My people will never relax for a moment."
As a big businessman who is one of the best in stability.
The third eldest daughter of the Shen family knows the shipping volume.
Shen Lin now does not need a carriage to buy food and grass supplies.
Wu Qi's several fast ships are going to pull goods. They can't be empty, right?
Not to mention the thousand-ton class escort ship.
Loaded five 300-gallon clippers.
The grain and fodder alone amounted to more than 1,000 dan.
How many things did that kid buy with his own money?
Shen Zhongxin and Shen Zhongru don't care for the time being.
The key is what kind of goods were shipped out?
The business of his weaving shop has increased sharply because of the seed cotton.
It's half useless.
Of course, the two cheap elders did not know about Shen Lin's dyeing of cloth.
Even if it carries cotton cloth, one thousand horses is only 30,000 jins.
Cottonseed oil is less than 10,000 kilograms.
It would be great to make one trip a month and fill two small speedboats.
Can fine iron farm tools, iron pots, iron basins, kitchen knives and so on.
Those things weigh on the scale.
In one month, the total of pig iron and refined iron is counted as one shipment.
They weigh tens of thousands or even more than 100,000 catties, right?
The draft of the ship can be seen at a glance.
Shen Zhongxin changed into casual clothes.
"I plan to go to Lushui River Village to have a talk!"
Shen Zhongru was extremely depressed.
If he doesn't give me, the third uncle's face, how can you, the second uncle of the county lieutenant?
Can you really convince him?
Autumn Tiger is very annoying.
The sun was shining brightly, and the cicadas on the trees were screaming feebly.
Shen Zhongxin and his only son Shen Yi were escorted by twenty cavalrymen.
We rushed to Lushuihe Village sweating profusely.
The father and son first went to Wandering Beach to inspect the heavy training of rural soldiers.
This person who is heavy is quite practical in his work.
The training ground at Nottingham University has been cleaned up a long time ago.
Three hundred strong men stood in the scorching sun with their naked upper bodies sweating profusely.
The weapons are not in place yet.
Everyone could only wave wooden swords and guns of equal weight and roar.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Twenty Xiaoshao bows were sent.
The main line of the Shen family trained servants in the past and had some stocks.
Of course, Shen Sheng received extra care.
Hundreds of archers can take turns shooting arrows, which is quite sufficient.
Shen Zhongxin stroked the green beard under his chin and nodded in praise.
"Chong'er, the rural soldiers in the mountainous areas can endure more hardship than the Shenjiaji or the urban soldiers in the county."
"You trained well and deserve a reward!"
He replied seriously and respectfully.
"My nephew acted recklessly and let my second uncle down."
What he was talking about was not about military training.
He had targeted Shen Lin several times, but all ended in failure.
This has to be extremely frustrating.
Shen Yi on the side is still full of nerdiness.
Even though he is now the commander of three thousand squadrons.
Still arrogant.
Shen Yi felt that his waist was already very strong.
"Cousin, what are you afraid of?"
"In two months at most, you and I will be able to train successfully."
"The two of us joined forces and surrounded the dilapidated fort. My brother got angry."
"The Art of War says, attack ten times!"
"So what if he gathers three hundred idiots?"
"Can you stop our noble soldiers?"
Shen Zhongxin is not that naive.
Not to mention the tall city walls.
Shen Lin is still buying good war horses on a large scale.
If you arm him with three hundred cavalry, drink!
You three thousand infantry troops are nothing but mud-legged soldiers.
Let the horse rush forward, and the infantry will have to run away.
Shen Zhongxin has many soldiers but no generals.
He and a group of close servants were all half-empty soldiers.
In the future, he does not have the confidence to fight with thousands of horse bandits in the wild.
Thank God if we can hold seven towns and one city!
"Shut up!"
Shen Zhongxin's old face was dark and translucent.
"Now, we are not even equipped with weapons or leather armor."
"That boy's business is booming and he's making a lot of money."
"He has iron armor, a strong bow and a good horse."
"Why do you fight with others?"
Shen Yi is young and not as protective of money as his elders.
This was also the reason for his extreme dissatisfaction.
"How rich is Shen Lin?"
"Is it better than our own family?"
"Dad, the world is different now. Those silver winters in the cellar..."
If it weren't for the fact that there were more than 300 people training in front of me.
Shen Zhongxin wanted to rush over and slap Shen Yi several times.
You naughty kid.
Shen Lin was a prodigal.
Do you also want to learn from me?
