Nowadays, the sales of soap have been fully expanded. The soap factory in Tiegunshan has built several new factories within a few months. The county Yahang will send a group of slaves to Tieguanshan every month.
When Jin Feng and Wan Yuhong arrived, they happened to encounter a team of slaves at the foot of the mountain.
There were not only girls, but also several children.
"Sisters, there is Tin Can Mountain ahead of us, please work harder!"
Ya Lang, who was leading the team, shouted: "When we arrive at Iron Can Mountain, not only can we have enough to eat, but we can also work to make money and redeem our families!"
When many girls heard Yalang's call, their eyes showed anticipation.
Most of the women received by Yaxing were because they could not pay taxes or their family members had committed crimes. Often the whole family was sold by the government together.
Now in the county dental shop, Jin Feng's reputation has long been established. All the slaves know that if they are bought by Mr. Jin, they will not be bullied and they will be paid a lot of money for their work.
And after working for a month, if there is no problem with the work, you can advance your wages and redeem the lives of your family members who have been sold.
Being bought by Mr. Jin is the biggest dream of all the girls and children in Yahang.
As Yalang was talking, he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him, turned around and shouted quickly: "Sisters, get out of the way, Mr. Jin is here!"
"He is Mr. Jin, so young!"
"Mr. Jin, thank you for taking me and my brother in. Ah Chun kowtows to you!"
Hearing this, the slaves quickly moved to the side of the mountain road and looked at Jin Feng and others curiously.
There was also a female slave who took her younger brother and knelt down in the mud to kowtow.
"Get up, get up, we in Jinchuan are not in the mood to kowtow, and I can't bear it either!"
Jin Feng quickly jumped off his horse and pulled up the kowtowing girl and the child.
"You can bear it. If my husband hadn't taken us in, my brother and I wouldn't have been sold to where we would have been sold. We don't know if we would ever see each other again in this life."
The girl said excitedly: "Gengsheng, please kowtow to me. You are so young. If you are bought by someone else, you will definitely starve to death!"
Kowtowing is the only way she can think of to express her gratitude now.
A child of six or seven years old looked at his sister in confusion, then at Jin Feng, and was about to kneel down.
"The ground is covered with mud and water, why are you kneeling?"
Jin Feng quickly grabbed the child: "I really want to thank you for going up to the mountain and working hard to raise your brother and educate him to become a talented person."
"Mr. Jin, don't worry. From now on, I will be your husband's son when I am born, and I will be his ghost when I die. Ah Chun will do whatever he asks me to do!"
The girl quickly raised her hands to swear.
"Okay, okay, it's not that serious."
Jin Feng pulled her arm down with a black line.
I sighed at the simplicity of the ancients and looked at the other girls.
Before the girls who were sold went to the dental shop, all their belongings were taken away by the government servants, including the coat they were wearing.
Many girls only wore thin inner clothes and no shoes.
It is late autumn now, the temperature is already very low, and it has rained continuously recently. It also rained on the way to Jinchuan, and almost all the girls were shivering from the cold.
"Da Liu, go back and tell the escort agency in Guangyuan. In the future, the girls and children we buy should not be sent away by the dental store. Let the escort agency send someone to escort them."
Jin Feng was afraid that he had forgotten, so he turned around and told Liu: "Let the textile factory send a batch of women's shoes to Guangyuan. Give each of them a pair before departure. Don't rush on the road if it rains. If it gets cold in the future, don't rush."
It’s freezing.”
"Okay!" Da Liu quickly wrote it down.
"Lao An, you ride up the mountain first and ask the cafeteria to boil a pot of ginger soup to warm them up. Then tell Miss Zuo to get her clothes ready."
The former person in charge of Iron Can Mountain was Wan Niang. Now Wan Niang went to Xihewan and worked with Guan Xiaorou to develop essences and soaps. Iron Can Mountain was handed over to a girl named Zuo Feifei.
"Yes!" A veteran turned around and went up the mountain.
"Thank you Mr. Jin!"
Because it has been raining recently, it took the girls four days to get here, and they were cold and hungry along the way.
There is nothing better than drinking a bowl of ginger soup.
"Okay, let's go up the mountain quickly."
Jin Feng waved his hand to Yalang, mounted his horse and left first.
"yes!"
Yalang bowed and led the team behind.
Jin Feng walked and reflected.
As more and more industries are under his control, management gradually cannot keep up.
If he hadn't happened to meet them today, he wouldn't have known that the girls had to walk barefoot and in the rain from Guangyuan to Tin Can Mountain.
In the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce, there have been cases in the past two months of people secretly buying soap and then selling it at a premium on the black market.
There are also bodyguards who use heavy crossbows and catapults to threaten and extort bandits when escorting the bodyguards.
With the development of chambers of commerce and escort bureaus, this situation will definitely become more and more common, and we must find ways to strengthen management as soon as possible.
But he is just a man of science and engineering, so how can he know how to manage?
Tang Dongdong has some management talents, but after all, she has not received systematic training. As the textile factory grows bigger, she becomes busier and busier. She often works overtime until midnight, and if she is given more burdens, she will probably collapse from exhaustion.
Tang Xiaobei is similar. Nowadays, the scale of the Chamber of Commerce is getting larger and larger. With Guangyuan and Beijing as the center points, it radiates to five or six counties and cities, and has opened stores in every county-level administrative unit. It is enough for her to worry about.
This time, Tang Xiaobei originally planned to lead the team in person when going to Jiangnan to explore the market, but because there were too many things to do, he was unable to make the trip.
There is also Zhang Liang, who is an expert in leading troops in battles. After taking over from Qing Mulan to take charge of suppressing bandits, he swept away the decline and achieved remarkable results.
In less than a month, the troops were divided into many places and swept away all the large-scale bandits in Guangyuan counties with lightning speed. Almost every battle was a complete victory.
But Zhang Liang is also not very good at management.
It's no problem to directly lead the troops to fight, but when the bodyguards are scattered everywhere, it gradually gets out of control.
To put it bluntly, Jin Feng does not lack generals, but he lacks commanders who can lead the overall situation.
"We have to find ways to find talents quickly!"
Jin Feng sighed and got off his horse.
Today's Iron Can Mountain is no longer what it was when we first captured it.
The huts were demolished and replaced with brick buildings so that more people could live there.
There are also tall sheds built on the flat ground at the top of the mountain, with rows of shelves inside, on which layers of soap are dried.
Groups of girls carrying trays were passing through.
A strong aroma spreads across the floor.
Jin Feng felt relaxed and happy and couldn't help but close his eyes.
A woman in purple clothes walked over quickly, saluted Jin Feng, and said softly: "I've met you, sir!"
She is Zuo Feifei, the current person in charge of Iron Can Mountain.
After receiving the notice from the veteran, I arranged the canteen and clothes, and came to the mountain pass to greet Jin Feng as soon as possible.
"Feifei, long time no see, she looks even more beautiful!"
Jin Feng opened his eyes, smiled and said hello.
If we just talk about appearance and figure, Zuo Feifei is not inferior to Guan Xiaorou and Tang Xiaobei, and she also has a bookish air about her.
When Jin Feng chose her to replace Wan Niang as the person in charge, Tang Xiaobei also doubted whether Jin Feng had a crush on Zuo Feifei.
"Sir, you are making fun of Feifei again."
Zuo Feifei's little face suddenly turned red, and her tone sounded both angry and ashamed.
