Chapter 110: The meeting is held, and there are a lot of problems (1)
"Zhu Han, keep a line in your behavior so that we can meet each other easily in the future. I am standing here today, and I still don't believe you. What can you do to me!"
Zhen Yan was so angry. After being stopped by Zhu Han, his bad temper was immediately aroused. He stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Zhu Han proudly. He was quite arrogant. If he hadn't seen Zhen Yan
Based on his previous performance, who would have known that this handsome young man could actually be tough.
"I think you have misunderstood again, Second Young Master!" Zhu Han was startled when he saw this, and secretly wondered what kind of temper Zhen Yan was playing. He thought about leaving before the process was completed. Could it be that these wealthy families do this?
Can't a business be concluded with just a verbal agreement?
"What else do you want to do? Tell me!"
Seeing that Zhu Han acted like he really had something to tell her, but couldn't say anything for a long time, Zhen Yan almost lost his breath and thought to himself, "Can you stop breathing so heavily when you talk? You're so scary, let me
Master, I am extremely nervous.
"Well, Second Young Master, when you do business, you just talk about it verbally? Don't you establish a written document or something?"
Seeing that Zhen Yan was still impatient, black lines suddenly appeared on Zhu Han's forehead, but the person in front of him was his financial backer, and he hadn't even seen the money yet, so he could only explain patiently: "We
It is best to create a written document and agree on the specific responsibilities of both parties, so as to avoid having no evidence to follow when something goes wrong in the future!"
"Huh, do you really think I'm like you? What you say doesn't count?" Zhen Yan frowned slightly, first mocked Zhu Han disdainfully, and then urged impatiently: "Hurry up, after establishing the written document, I will
The young master is about to leave, and I don’t want to stay in this county any longer!”
Xi Zhicai quickly asked someone to get paper and pen, wrote the "contract" in public and read it over. After both parties felt that there was nothing to add, they wrote down their names and pressed their fingerprints one after another.
After Zhen Yan and his party left, Zhu Han sat there holding the 'contract' and looked at it stupidly, while he giggled.
"Sir, what's going on?"
Dian Wei's face was filled with doubts. He pulled Xi Zhicai who was about to leave and asked, "Zhicai, don't leave in such a hurry. Tell me!"
"Hey, it's a windfall. It's the same for everyone. Just get used to it. Just get used to it. I have something else to do, so I'll get busy first!"
Glancing at Zhu Han, who was still dreaming, Xi Zhicai immediately gave a bitter smile and thought to himself, his master is really... I would say he is experienced in dealing with things, but in front of so many people, Zhen Yan couldn't stand it.
Taiwan, but if you say he is ignorant, they really took over Zhen Yan. Whether it was through coercion or inducement, the contract has been signed, and both parties must act according to the rules. With the huge material support of the Zhen family,
Xi Zhicai will have to be busy for a while longer. At the very least, he has to build the granary.
The next day, early morning.
Zhu Han rarely summoned his subordinates for discussion, and even the shopkeeper of Chenxiang Pavilion, Mrs. Zhang, was invited over.
"Everyone, we fought a good battle yesterday! As long as Zhen Yan's supplies are in place, in the next year, we will no longer worry about food, and at the same time, we have achieved the feat of preventing people from going hungry again!" Zhu Han
After carrying the wine bottle and pouring wine for everyone, he held the wine bottle high and said with a heroic smile: "At this point, let's drink to this first step!"
"cheers!"
Zhang Liao, Xi Zhicai, Pei Yuanshao, Guan Hai, Yan Liang, Zhang Shi, and Ma Chuang looked at each other in confusion. Although they did not understand that Zhu Han was crazy and wanted to drink so much in the morning, the boss had already spoken, so they could only
Bravely drink this cup.
"It's so comfortable! I called everyone here today because I want to tell everyone about the rules of our yamen from now on!"
Zhu Han did not intend to take any drastic measures in Nian. Nian was delayed by military training for another month. Now Zhu Han found time to fulfill his duties as county magistrate.
"While everyone is here today, let's sort things out, decide on positions, and sort out the tasks!" Zhu Han walked back to the main seat.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, smiled and said: "Over there in the New Year, we have no money, and things are just like that. Now that the New Year has just passed, we can no longer live in a muddle-headed way. Okay, before you decide on a position, you should first sort out everything you have on hand.
Let’s talk about it.”
"Since no one wants to speak first, let me talk about the matters at hand first!"
Xi Zhicai saw that the others were silent, obviously not wanting to be the first to speak out, so he had to throw some light on things, and said first: "I have five things on my hands. First, during this period of time, I and my people have already taken care of Han.
The land that was given to us by our family was re-measured, filed in a register, and stored in the government office. Secondly, in accordance with your wishes, a well was drilled in every village in the county. As for the wells and reservoirs next to the fields,
, I have also selected a location, and then I will arrange manpower to complete it within three months, that is, the end of April; thirdly, sixteen more porridge tents have been set up in the city, but we still have too little food in stock, and the people
Most of us can only survive on some gruel, and I found that some people still have food left at home, but they keep coming to the porridge tents in the city to eat for free. This is also the reason why we consume food so fast. We eat at this rate.
If this continues, the yamen will run out of food within half a year at most. This is a top priority, and I hope you will make an early decision. Fourthly, in accordance with your order, I have recruited thirty junior officials who can speak and write, and are preparing to re-investigate our county.
I plan to start in the city first, but this matter is too complicated and will take a lot of time. Fifthly, the steward of Juxian Village outside the city also comes to collect food, grass, meals and money every few days.
, Zhuangzi has been here for several months, and we only visited Dianwei. However, we spent a lot of money on food, and you have to consider this matter. To sum up, our food gap is still too big.
If you are not careful, it will cause dissatisfaction among the people, leading to unstable public security within the territory, and it will also be exploited by people with malicious intentions, threatening your status."
"Finished?"
While Zhu Han listened carefully to Xi Zhicai's report, he considered several things that needed improvement in his mind. After hearing this, Xi Zhicai's side went silent, and only then did Zhu Han react.
"It's over!"
Xi Zhicai wondered.
"You have nothing else to say?"
Zhu Han asked pointedly.
Looking at Xi Zhicai's demented look, Zhu Han scolded with some warmth and anger: "Zhicai! Now that you have raised the problem, what about the solution? You have to prepare it in advance, at least give me a solution.
Take it as a reference! I hired you to do things, not just to throw them at me whenever you encounter a problem! You can’t just tell me whether this thing can be done, whether it can be done, but you also need to tell me how to do it.
, how to do it.”
"this..."
Only then did Xi Zhi suddenly realize it. He quickly covered his face with his hands and replied awkwardly: "My subordinate was negligent and I will definitely correct it in the future!"
"Sir, this is your fault!"
Dian Wei, who was standing by the side, couldn't stand it any longer, so he immediately spoke up to defend himself.
"Oh? Why is it my fault? Dian Wei, tell me."
Zhu Han was stunned when he heard this. He never thought that it was up to him to do this?
"I will say what I say, but after I say it, sir, please don't get angry!"
Dian Wei is a simple and honest man who always says one thing when he has one and another when there are two things.
"Don't worry, I will never be angry with you because of this matter!"
Looking at Dian Wei's look, Zhu Han laughed out loud and cursed, "Am I such an angry person?"
"Well, let me tell you, my lord, why did you call them here but didn't tell them? It was all called at last minute this morning. I think it is very rare for a person to say so much. Could it be that, lord, you still
Are you asking him to come up with a solution in this short period of time? Isn’t this forcing someone to do something difficult?”
Dian Wei replied truthfully.
"Oh, blame me, you really have to blame me!"
After listening to Dian Wei's words, Zhu Han slapped his forehead, quickly turned to look at Xi Zhicai and said with a smile: "
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Dian Wei is right, this is all my fault!"
"No, this matter should be blamed on the subordinates. Just like what you just said, sir, you paid us to hire us to solve your problems, but the subordinates failed to do it. It is indeed the subordinates who have neglected their duties. How can you blame them?
In your body, my lord?"
Xi Zhicai doesn't think so. He feels that as a subordinate, if he doesn't do well, he just doesn't do well. He just needs to make corrections in the future. If he has to complain about such trivial matters and find various excuses to shirk it, then this matter is still a problem.
Can we do it or not?
"Okay, okay, Zhicai, you are here to think about the plan first, and let's listen to other people's ideas first!"
Xi Zhicai is such a person. He is always strict in business matters. Zhu Han quickly changed the topic and looked at Ms. Zhang and asked: "Sister Zhang, please tell me about the situation in Chenxiang Pavilion!"
"Then let's talk about Chenxiang Pavilion first!"
Mrs. Zhang is obviously not used to such an occasion. You said that she is a womanly person. She usually sews at home and cares about her husband and raises children. Now she has become Zhu Han's subordinate, but she is not an ordinary woman.
, Zhang Liao’s masterpiece was made by her.
"Now Chenxiang Pavilion has opened three shops in the city, with 36 carpenters and 812 handymen. Business was quite good last year, but orders have dropped since this year, mainly due to economic reasons.
Everyone in the county who can afford to buy furniture has come to exchange for a new set. No one will come to buy it in a short time. I would also like to take some time to tell you, sir, whether our Chenxiang Pavilion business should be expanded into something else.
Going to the county?”
Zhang quickly organized her words and said to Zhu Han.
"Why are there only more than thirty craftsmen?"
Zhu Han asked with a frown.
"These are all cultivated by ourselves. The carpenters in Jingxian County are all in Wanmuzhai, and they were competing with us for business some time ago, recruiting almost all the people in the city who have some carpentry skills!"
Zhang explained with some annoyance: "When they started selling furniture that imitated ours, it did have some impact on Chenxiang Pavilion's business. However, as time went by, our after-sales service brought back some customers.
After the common people tasted the benefits, many people went to Wanmuzhai to cancel their orders and changed their orders to our Chenxiang Pavilion. However, they still robbed some of them, and the slave family heard that Wanmuzhai had already completed the business a year ago.
In the surrounding Nangong County and Guangzong County, people who came back to inquire about the news said that as soon as they settled in these two counties, they overwhelmed the local furniture workshops in just a few months."
"Haha, I was negligent for a moment, and that boy Zhu Wen really took advantage of a loophole!"
After thinking about it secretly, Zhu Han said: "Since that fat man Zhu Wen has already taken action, we can't just wait around. Sister Zhang, hurry up and recruit people. Wan Muzhai has gone to Nangong and Guangzong counties, so we can also
Go to those two counties. Not only that, we also need to expand to several more counties. With Jing County as the center, Chenxiangge must open its stores to Nangong, Guangzong, Quzhou, Julu, and Guangzhou within three months.
Is it possible to do it in the eleven counties of Ping, Pingxiang, Renxian, Nanli, Xindu, Fuliu, and Tangyang?"
"Ah? This... is a bit too much. We don't have enough manpower, and there are too few craftsmen. Although there are assembly lines and assembly methods taught by you, my lord, three months is still a bit hasty!"
Mrs. Zhang was stunned when she heard this. She thought about it and replied: "It's easy to rent a shop. As long as the money is in place, it shouldn't be difficult. What's difficult for us right now is that we don't have enough wood storage, and we don't have much inventory of finished products. Besides, there are not many other things in stock."
The selection of the county manager is also a difficult problem.”
"If you have any difficulties, find a way to overcome them. Sister Zhang, your most important task now is to make a list for me as soon as you go back. Carefully sort out what is needed and what is missing, and report it to me within three days. We will come back then.
Finalized.”
Zhu Han was so anxious. He just made a mistake and let Zhu Wen get in first. Now if he wants to make a comeback, he has to be faster and more ruthless than Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen expanded to two counties, so he
