Li Guolou watched the villagers working for a while, but he was no longer interested in blowing the cold wind. He could not share the joys and sorrows with the people and shoulder the burdens of the work. He has been a superior aristocratic child since he was a child. He is used to pointing things and drinking things. He was born to be a general.
Material. Being able to say a few inspiring words here is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth.
Li Guolou ran down the earthen wall and said to a supervisor: "Xiao Wu, I'll leave this to you. I'll give you three days to repair the earthen wall. The labor cost is 40 cents a day, and a full dozen people are counted as 30 people."
One or two hundred taels of silver a day, and an additional 300 taels of food subsidy, and fifty taels of materials for a total of fifty-five taels of silver. As for the wood for the gate, I will see it arrive in three days. Once it is done, I will reward you with another five taels of silver.
For two silver dollars, I'll let you do the work of laying bricks on the earthen walls from now on. If you can't finish it in three days, don't let me see you in the future. Go back to Dongchang Alley and stand guard."
"Captain Li, I am not bragging. I have repaired the walls of the capital and seen the formations of thousands of troops. If I can't do this small job well, I might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes. This rammed earth is so powerful
Be careful;;;;;;"Although the Wu Gongtun people are young, their mouths are open and they chatter endlessly. They don't care whether Li Guolou is willing to listen or not, so he just talks like this and gets too close.
The spittle also sprayed on Li Guolou's face.
Li Guolou spoke concisely and clearly. He patted his butt and left. He did not listen to Xiao Wu's oaths and left with a relaxed pace. He could get things done easily even if he worked easily. He let his subordinates do the hard work. He had money in hand and commanded him.
Others use their fingers like arms.
Ai Hai and Gao Yao Wuyun followed Li Guolou. Ai Hai couldn't hold it anymore and came closer and said: "Captain Li, you seem to be happy to do things like this, but you are actually a country bumpkin. How can anyone be so money-savvy?
If the village asks you to be the village leader, it will suffer financial losses. You have bought a good reputation and won great rewards from all over the world. What will happen to the people who take over after you? If Zhou Papi spends money like you, there will be thousands of acres of fertile land. "
Li Guolou spread his hands and said helplessly: "Vice Captain Ai, I can only do things this way. I can't calculate things carefully and use an abacus to calculate accounts. I can't do it. This is called the style of the ancients."
"Which ancient person?" Ai Hai shook his head. Li Guolou, who was born in a wealthy family, was good at what he did, but in fact it was just superficial words bought with money.
"Heshen, I remember when Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River and looked at the broken bridge in Hangzhou. He pointed to the other side of the West Lake and said, 'The flowers are beautiful and the moon is full, but one tower is missing.' Emperor Qianlong also made a joke. Heshen listened and understood what the king meant.
, a majestic wooden pagoda was built in three days. Emperor Qianlong was extremely happy when he saw the pagoda. His ministers could be of great use. Emperor Qianlong even climbed up the wooden pagoda to play and wrote a poem as a souvenir.
What do you think He Shen relies on?" Who is the capable person in Li Guolou's mind? It's self-evident.
"Boss, is that tower still there?" Gao Yaowun asked.
Li Guolou turned to look at the person behind him and said angrily: "You are a police officer, but you should tell me how long the wooden tower built in three days can last."
"Hey hey hey!" Gao Yao Wuyun's inner thoughts were confirmed. Speed and mass are inversely proportional. He has never seen a wooden tower without a foundation. "Head, what should we do next? Ideological mobilization work is for you.
It's too easy to say. With so many people staying, do we have to farm the land?"
Li Guolou said: "Why not? We are staying here to complete the production work in Balizhuang. Now we are going to the Zhou Family Courtyard for a meeting. Don't call it this name in the future. Just call it Yunmeng Diaolou. Give me the advice.
Wait, what should we do next? We must use our own people as the village leader, not the few people from Balizhuang. Select a village leader first. I am not good at farming, but mobilization work is still possible. You go
Invite several old farmers in the village to have a meeting together. I want to know the priorities and confirm the next main direction of attack."
"Captain Li, I think that since we have done so many things here, Muramasa should choose someone with a background as a police officer. He has a strict mouth and can be trusted. People from the militia cannot be close to his heart;;;;;;"
Before Ai Hai finished speaking, Gao Yao jumped to the other side of Li Guo Building and interjected: "Boss, let my dad come. He is in great health and can work for more than ten years without any problems. Although my dad doesn't know much about farming,
But he understands animals. If you use this strength to the extreme, great things can be accomplished."
Li Guolou remained silent. Everyone has selfish motives, and Gao Yao Wuyun is also very selfish. He tried every means to take advantage, but there is still one way. To the north of Balizhuang is Yunmeng Mountain, which is suitable for grazing. Gao Yao Wuyun's father Qing
Gertai knows the habits of animals well, and can change the living environment with just one person.
Li Guolou thought for a moment and said: "Captain Gao Yao, go and invite your father. I'll talk to him first. As for whether to let him be the village leader? Put it aside for now, it's just a choice. Do you understand?
?”
"Zha! Tou, I'm going to pack my bags right now and set off at noon. I'll lend you your horse as well. A pair of horses will go faster. Hehehehe!" Gao Yao Wuyun was impatient. If he could get the title of village mayor
, that will be great news. It is best for the "head" to speak up, and the veteran will take action, but he is afraid that the "young head" will rebel.
"No! Don't be in a hurry. I won't leave for a week." Li Guolou was reluctant to lend the bay-red horse to Gao Yaowun. He had already been deceived once last time, but this time the old fox didn't take action.
"Stingy!" Gao Yao Wuyun was angry and got close to Ai Hai. Which of the horses here are decent depends on the official position. After some bickering, Ai Hai agreed to lend the horse to Gao Yao Wuyun.
When they were leaving, Ai Hai sighed and said, "Gao Yao caught the head and brought back a few pigs. I still like to eat pork. Mutton is too smelly. There is no place to vent my anger after eating it." He did not put Gao Yao Wuyun at all.
Treated as a woman, even endocrinology matters are discussed in front of a high-profile dark cloud.
"I know, Deputy Ai, I will buy pork, chickens and ducks from Jishikou." Gao Yaowuyun promised, patting his chest.
Li Guolou's heart trembled, and he said anxiously: "Gao Yao, please hurry up. The rebels have almost eaten all the livestock and poultry in Balizhuang. You'd better take a few people to Jishikou to get the livestock and poultry needed by the village."
Buy it back. I'll give you the money now, let's go!" As they spoke, the three of them walked towards Yunmeng Diaolou together. They were all walking in a hurry. Things were messy and too numerous to count. They just did whatever they thought of? They were all in no place.
Official material.
"Head, that bay-red horse;;;;;;" Gaoyao Wuyun refuses to give up, and he must regain the face he lost.
"I'll lend it to you, but Gao Yao is the catcher. Don't ride your horse and whip your whip, and compete with the horse thieves. There is no hope of winning." Li Guolou warned Gao Yao Wuyun. He was not around, and those horse thieves were robbing passers-by.
, You don’t have to buy Gao Yaowun’s face, show your identity, and everyone won’t have to fight each other.
"A revolver." Gao Yao Wuyun spread his palms and took advantage of the situation.
"Gao Yao catches the head. The ricochet is very powerful. If you can't train a sharpshooter, don't compete with a spearman. If you die, don't blame me." Li Guolou took off the belt around his waist, took off the holster of one of his guns, and put his revolver
Pass it to Gao Yao Wuyun.
Gao Yaowun's small eyes narrowed to a slit, he touched the silver revolver as if caressing his beloved child, and murmured to himself: "Boss, next time I take a bullet for you, give this gun to me."
"
Ai Hai curled his lips and said: "Gao Yao is the head catcher. As long as you don't throw grenades on Captain Li's head, Captain Li can live a few more years."
"Hey, Lieutenant Commander, don't mention this matter again. Things are changing rapidly on the battlefield. I also had an idea and I will throw it at your head in the future. Hehehehehe!" Gao Yao Wuyun smiled slyly and mingled among the people at the bottom. A person of several eldest sister level hangs around the commander all day long.
Li Guolou shook his head and said nothing. The commander was full of majesty. The two-story Yunmeng Watchtower stood like a monster in the middle of Balizhuang. Li Guolou remembered something and said: "Deputy Captain Ai, after the meeting is over later, hand it over to One of your tasks is to find Zhou Bapi’s furniture, farm tools, and antiques. Forget about the clothes, it’s cheaper for those muddy legs.”
"Oh!" Ai Hai glanced at Li Guolou, who was walking in front of him. He was so flattering that he took pictures of this person. How could Bao Yiyi not promote Li Guolou to a more important position? There is no need for the commander to worry about it. Li Guolou was already chasing the stolen goods for Bao Yiyi. He asked involuntarily: "Captain Li, just now the villagers said they wanted to build a shrine. Where should it be built?"
Li Guolou solemnly said: "Well, this matter is a top priority and should be taken as seriously as farming. We will discuss it at the meeting later and build the temple. From now on, it will be one of the best tourist attractions in Balizhuang. Do you think it would be good to put it next to the Earth Temple?"
"Put it outside the village?" Ai Hai hesitated, feeling not very good.
Li Guolou nodded and said: "That's right there, together with the Earth God, my old father-in-law. The area is at least three times larger than the Earth Temple, at least!"
"Money!" Ai Hai couldn't help but worry about Li Guolou. He knew best how much money he still had on his books. The pots and bowls were filled with less than two thousand taels of silver. Building an earth temple would cost at least five or six hundred taels of silver. As Li Guolou said, the temple should cover an area of five or six acres and have a beautiful facade. If people stop to visit, it will cost at least two to three thousand taels of silver.
"I know that money is not a problem. I have a way. Many people will come to build houses and work. To make Balizhuang's economy take off, we need to carry out construction. I have thought about it. The immigrants who want to settle here must contribute money and effort. Set up a joint-stock farm in Balizhuang and let everyone work in one place." Li Guolou was full of clever ideas, and he even got the idea of making meritorious officials recoup the benefits they had gained.
Ai Hai was completely speechless, and Gao Yaowun asked: "Tou, do you mean you want us to take out the reward money again?"
Li Guolou lowered his head and walked in front, his mind spinning rapidly, and he said calmly: "Yes, Gao Yao has asked your father to invest your dowry money in the construction of Balizhuang. The more you invest, the more you will earn." If there are more, your father can build a watchtower here in the future."
Gao Yaowuyun thought of the three tile-roofed houses in her Jishikou home, how could they be compared with the watchtowers of the landlord Lao Cai, her blood flowed in her body, and she obliged and said: "Boss, I believe you, I will move the property here when I get home." "
Ai Hai sighed: "What's so good about here? I can't buy anything, and I can't eat well. I got tired of it after staying for a day, and I just want to go back to the city to hug my wife."
Li Guolou said in a soft voice: "Bald Ai, I don't want to let my child catch the wolf. How much money can you tell me? I'll give you a house and a few acres of land after thinking about it."
Now the ownerless house and land in Balizhuang are all in Li Guolou's hands, and he can give it to whomever he wants. The face of the Tu Emperor is completely exposed in front of his two confidants.
Ai Hai walked hesitantly behind Li Guolou, calculating in his mind. He followed Li Guolou to make a fortune and made a lot of money. He had already bought a courtyard house in the capital, and he wanted to live in a big house. It seemed that
Not so fast. I stepped into the courtyard of Yunmeng Diaolou and looked at the old locust tree in the courtyard. It has lush branches and leaves, and crows are circling on the old nest. The scenery here is unique.
"Third brother, hand over all my family assets." Ai Hai finally figured it out and supported Li Guolou unconditionally so that he could ride on a smooth sailing in the future.
"I won't force it. Everyone has a choice." Li Guolou was a little dissatisfied that Ai Hai took so long to make a decision. His tone was filled with disdain. There were so many rich and powerful women behind him supporting him.
?The road to the blue sky is right in front of you and is not known to the world.
"Hey hey hey!" Ai Hai heard the dissatisfaction in Li Guolou's words and said with a wicked smile: "Third brother, I'm thinking about how to tell the people at home that I won't force myself if I don't force it. I will set an example now and file it on the public account.
Add two hundred taels of silver."
"Huh!" Li Guolou was furious, turned to look at Ai Hai, and shouted: "Bald Ai, you dare to hide the trophies secretly, what crime should you deserve?"
"Hey!" Ai Hai looked extremely ugly, lowered his head in regret, and turned from joy to sorrow. The greatest sorrow in life is this. He was too excited and fell into a big somersault, forgetting that Li Guolou was a magic catcher who could pinch and calculate.
.If you don’t bring it upon yourself, if you disclose the results of cleaning up the battlefield, it is inevitable that you will have one hundred taels of silver confiscated.
Gao Yao Wuyun looked at this scene and regretted it so much that she beat her chest and almost cried. She secretly swore that she would be the first to clean up the battlefield in the future and not make money from dead people, as she was sorry for her ancient Mongolian ancestors.
