Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

There is always an end to wandering around, and the leisurely time will never last too long. When the fourth prince came with the news, Wang Xiujin's rest was over, and he packed his luggage and prepared to go home.Wang Xiujin despised the emperor's act of paying on credit, but he dared not say it out loud. The only thing to be thankful for was that the emperor did not let him pay for money other than the annual salary. If the emperor asked him to pay, he would grit his teeth. Take it out, or I'm afraid my head will be moved.

The carriage was prepared by the General's Mansion. The old general attached great importance to Wang Xiujin's return home. Although he was a little disappointed that he could not build a workshop in the north, he thought that Wang Xiujin had brought the booklet prepared by the Li family with him, and promised that even if he could not invite all of them, he would Set aside some places in Wu County to arrange them.

Wang Xiujin thinks very well. A product needs many links from the factory to the sale to the customer, and each link needs to be completed manually. In addition to the workers in the workshop, there are many jobs that can be provided, such as It is a salesman, or a peddler. Some people may look down on this kind of work. He does not force everyone to accept it, including the guys in the workshop. He will not say that people do not want to do it. He has to let people do it. .Wang Xiujin didn't know if people in ancient times would look down on these workers. Some people had a high heart and would not do lowly things even if they had a lot of physical limitations. Brother Ning lived in poverty and was unwilling to earn money. The money exchanged with both hands is only because the status is too low. To such a person, Wang Xiujin can only give two words... "Haha".

Sitting in the carriage, Li Sushan reluctantly bid farewell to Wang Sujin. He really wanted to send Wang Xiujin home, but without an order, he was not allowed to leave Beijing, so he could only send him outside the city.Wang Xiujin waved his hand vigorously, and then retracted his arm until he could no longer see the figure clearly.This trip to Beijing was like a dream. I jumped into the hole I dug. Should I be called stupid or stupid?In addition to working hard for others, you also have to worry about being fired at any time, but working for yourself does not have this worry at all.

The journey back to Wu County was very smooth. First, I went to the county government office to visit my elder brother. Seeing that the elder brother’s serious face was different from usual, I sighed in my heart that people who have a job are different. Wang Xiubai asked his younger brother to go back to the shop to rest first. When he finished dealing with the matter in hand, he went to find him and returned to the village together at night.Before Wang Xiubo became an official, he didn't feel how tiring being an official was. It was easy to see his father being an official. He got up earlier in the morning, and after returning from court, he could have breakfast with his family before going to work. He also came back early in the evening. , although I don't know what my father does when he goes out to work, but judging from his relaxed posture, it is not difficult.Now that he has taken over the post of county magistrate, small things like sesame and mung bean pile up, one family loses a chicken, that family loses a duck, or the Li family occupies a third of the Liu family's land, and the Liu family pulls down the occupied wall... It can be regarded as a major case, but if it is a murder, it is a serious case.

Apart from official business, there are some people in the village who display the genealogy of their relatives and smack him, but they often do corrupt things. He imprisoned a relative before, and let some people in the village jump their feet. What did he say that he has no conscience, are they worthy of their own conscience?They are, this is...

"Moral kidnapping." Wang Xiujin shook his head after listening to elder brother's complaint, "Elder brother should ask father to come forward in this matter, thinking that father was a higher official than elder brother back then, but no one in the village dared to act recklessly, there must be a reason for this. "

Wang Xiubo's eyes lit up after listening to his younger brother's words, "That's right, when I returned to Wu County for my brother and rarely returned home, I lived in the Yamen every day, and even when I went back, I came and went in a hurry, and I couldn't sit down and chat with my father. Opportunity."

"I'll have a good talk with my father when I get back today." From the elder brother's words, Wang Xiujin could tell that everything was fine at home, and the two drove home in a carriage.While Wang Xiujin was waiting for his eldest brother, he asked the shop assistants to go to Wang Village to prepare food for the family. Although the journey would not be a waste of time, the food outside could not be as good as the food at home.

When the two entered the village, the villagers greeted Wang Xiujin with smiles, and rolled their eyes at Wang Xiubo. enlightenment.

After entering the house, the two first went to visit their parents. Seeing that they were in good health, Wang Xiujin went back to the yard to change clothes without worry, while Wang Xiubai bowed his hands and invited his father to the study to solve his doubts.Mrs. Wang also heard about some things in the village, but she is only an official. She is a woman and has nothing to help her. She can only give her husband a pillow, hoping that the husband can give the eldest son some advice, but the husband has such a temper. ... Mrs. Wang shook her head helplessly, hoping that her husband could help her son today.

Before dinner, the door of the study room was closed tightly until the servant went to invite the two of them to dinner. Then the door opened. Wang Xiubai looked as if he had just woken up from a dream. The Rumu made Wang Xiujin shudder.Later, Wang Xiujin asked his elder brother what he and his father had talked about, but the elder brother just laughed and said nothing. After that, everyone in the village became honest, and no one dared to do whatever they wanted based on their relationship with the county magistrate.Wang Xiujin was even more curious, but no matter how much he asked his eldest brother, he still couldn't find the answer. Until he got old, it was an unsolved mystery in Wang Xiujin's heart.

Curiosity is curiosity. Wang Xiujin has a lot of things to do after he comes back. The school has no time to go. First, he is busy with the autumn harvest. Their family’s grain is harvested earlier than normal. After the harvest, they will fertilize the land. The second round of rice transplanting has been completed, and the surrounding fields have not yet entered the harvest.The villagers squatted on both sides of their fields these days, just waiting for the completion of the work and wanting to ask why.Wang Xiujin looked at the villagers, but just sneered and ignored them.

It cannot be said that everyone in the village relies on their family for a living, but at least they all signed a grain-growing contract with their family, and even used their identity to bully his elder brother. Rub it casually.Wang Xiujin is considering whether to sign a contract with the village next year, without his crabs, without his grain seeds, and not accepting their grain, let's see what they do.Once the gate of the house is closed, they dare not offend the only gentleman in the village, and nothing will happen to their father when he goes to school.These people don't teach them a hard lesson, and think that others should help them.The supply of grain shops is not a problem. Apart from Wangcun, there are many other villages that want to try planting. This year is because he wants to try the feasibility of two-crop rice.

Wang Xiujin's attitude stunned the people in the village, so they hurriedly went to find the village chief, who sneered back when he saw these people, and advised them to keep a low profile, and don't think that Wang Xiubai would pamper them because he thought of his clan relatives, now it's all right, Make people mad!Those relatives who bullied others were imprisoned. Now that Wang Xiujin came back, instead of facing his elder brother, he would help these relatives who had turned a few corners?Stop kidding, just wait and see!Wang Xiujin was able to refuse some people's food because those people came to say that they were petty, and he could refuse to sign with the whole village to buy food because he clearly wanted to handle his big brother.

The village chief shook his head. Anyway, these people wouldn't listen to what he said, so why bother wasting saliva.Wang Xiujin is a kind person, he brought him a lot of things when he came back from the capital, and he didn't mention anything about Xiubai, he felt ashamed!

Wang Xiujin didn't have much time in the village. After the second season of rice was planted, he started to work on the workshop. He followed the yamen servants to see some desolate places, and took the old man who could dig wells to visit several places. Yes, the old man who drilled the well shook his head, it was not a place where he could get water.Wang Xiujin was anxious, if he couldn't find a place to dig a well, the work of building a workshop in Wu County might be over.I asked the old man, but the old man knew a few places in the city where wells could be drilled. Apart from one being a bustling street, the other was a place that could be called a slum in the city.

Wang Xiujin was moved after hearing this, and immediately followed the old man to have a look. When he arrived at the place, the old man actually pointed out two points where wells could be drilled. spectrum.Back at the shop, Wang Xiujin immediately wrote a letter to the Fourth Prince, which mentioned a new word...relocation.

This time, the matter was rushed to the capital by the post station, and transferred to the palace. It was still the emperor who looked at it first, and the emperor had calmly accepted Wang Xiujin's new ideas from time to time.The merchants connect the common people, and each household calculates the cost of moving and compensation on a head-by-head basis, so that the common people will not feel homeless and hate the court that supports the merchants, and it can also show the court's importance to the common people.The emperor felt that what Wang Xiujin said was nonsense, but it was also useful. He just thought that Wang Xiujin was using his money to appease the people, and he felt a little unhappy, but he had to admit that Wang Xiujin's method was good.

The word relocation, after the fourth prince arrived in Wu County with a house-building team, became the focus of the people in Wu County. Soon the area that was designated as a slum attracted the attention of all parties. No one thought that it would happen overnight. In the past, the common people who lived today without tomorrow would become wealthy households overnight. It is said that each household has a certain number of people to receive compensation other than relocation.In this way, the more people there are, the more compensation they will receive.

It's not that people in this era don't have fraudsters, but when the yamen servants stand aside, no one is really careful.The mentality of the ancients not to fight with officials is very deep-rooted, not to mention that they still can't believe that there is still a good thing to do, how could they play tricks, wishing to leave quickly after taking the money, fearing that they will not be able to get the money if it is too late.

This is the first time Wang Xiujin has met such an easy relocation. Most of the people who have moved away are building houses in the desolate places he visited before, and some people returned to the countryside with their families. It is better to have a few acres of land than to live without income in the city.Not until October, the team brought by the fourth prince started construction. Originally, the fourth prince wanted to leave some houses as workshops for workers, but after entering a few households, the fourth prince's expression was very bad. I don't know that the people live in such hardship.
