The Zheng family mainly operates a restaurant and a brothel business, and many good families have been forced into prostitution. How many people were harmed by them? As for the Hou family, they were even more vicious, selling private salt and making poisonous salt. They did not eat the poisonous salt themselves, but they harmed many people. Fortunately, Hou Dong always acted like a gentle man in front of outsiders, but what kind of male thieves and female prostitutes were behind his back.
Nowadays, Yunze can be said to have helped Danyang City get rid of two evils, so the people praise Yunze. Overtly and secretly, many people love Yunze. Some people have even offered longevity tablets to Yunze at home.
And Yunze also took over all the Zheng family's property. As for those who were harmed by the Zheng family, he sent people to send money, although this could not make up for the harm they suffered from the Zheng family. But it's better than nothing.
After settling the matter with the Zheng family, Yunze no longer has to worry about his restaurant being persecuted by the Zheng family again, and Lu Qing and Master Hu will definitely be more honest.
Yunze handed over the skills of making briquettes to Lu Qing and Master Hu. The two were very happy about this, but what shocked them was that with the technology and no raw materials, they couldn't do anything.
Originally, the two of them had decided to let their family members do this business. After all, it was better to rely on their own family members than to rely on others. They had long since lost their reputation as literary men and their pride.
Fortunately, Yunze did not make things difficult for them and sent someone to deliver coal, which was transported from Longtou Mountain. Although the coal output is temporarily unable to meet the development of Yunze, it is not bad at all.
This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. Of course, Yunze doesn't want to delay it any longer. Letting Lu Qing and Master Hu join in can also be regarded as letting them do something for the people. With coal, there is no need for firewood.
Moreover, it is convenient and practical. It can save a lot of things. As for whether Lu Qing and Master Hu will make a fortune from this, Yunze is not worried at all.
After all, briquettes are not an indispensable thing, and it is impossible for them to make a fortune. If this is the case, Yunze can end up on his own. Don't give the two of them a chance.
The reason why he let Lu Qing and Master Hu go to hell was because he didn't have the time and energy to do these things for the time being, so he might as well let others do it for him.
Moreover, as long as they have coal raw materials in their hands, Lu Qing and Master Hu will always have to beg him. As long as they don't tell them how to find coal mines, they will never dare to do anything to themselves, the God of Wealth.
Yunze asked Han Long to send people to search for coal mines around Danyang. As long as coal mines are found, the development of the fiefdom will become faster. Of course, to avoid future trouble, Lu Qing would have to ask for some mining documents.
This was the condition that Yunze had negotiated with Lu Qing before.
After the matter in Danyang City was settled, Yunze and Su Qianmo returned to Longtou Mountain. As for the sisters Luo Yuniang and Luo Yunxi, Yunze took them to the fief.
It is the safest here, at least, and the fifteen hundred village guards in the fief are not just decorations. It is impossible for Weihushan to pose a threat to the two sisters. Yunze also wanted the two sisters to learn how to manage the fiefdom.
In the future, his plate will get bigger and bigger, and he will need help from capable people. The two sisters are the people he trusts the most. If you don’t cultivate it now, then how long will it take?
When he returned to Longtou Mountain, Yunze was a little surprised by the changes inside. He hadn't been back for almost a few months, and the entire Longtou Village had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Rows of brick houses are built in an orderly manner at the foot of the mountain. There are breeding farms and some workshops inside. In the newly built square in front, more than 2,000 people are training there.
These were selected by Yunze from more than 10,000 disaster victims sent here. Since he was ready to protect himself in this troubled time, he had to make preparations early, otherwise, when the troubled times came, it would be too late.
There are already discussions in the capital about cooperating with the Jin Kingdom to deal with the Khitan Kingdom. It is estimated that if they wait for their alliance, once the Khitan Kingdom is destroyed, that will be the time for the Jin Kingdom to take action against the Jing Dynasty.
Although Danyang Mansion is located in the south of Jing Dynasty, it is still relatively close to the north. Once the capital is lost, it is estimated that the Jin soldiers will attack soon. There is probably only a few years left for Yunze.
At this time, there were almost 12,000 people living in Longtou Mountain. This mountain stream was very spacious. With more than 10,000 people living there, it didn’t seem crowded. On the contrary, it was full of people.���magnificent.
More than 10,000 disaster victims live and work here in peace and contentment, and their lives are getting better day by day. In the farmland ahead, many people are busy. Han Long, who is following him, points to one of them, a middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties. Said to Yunze:
"Mr. Yun, that man's name is Sheng Yiping, he is a good farmer. Among the people you asked me to select, he is the smartest. I gave him your book on hybridization theory. Speaking of which, I was afraid that he didn't know how to read, but later I heard him say that he used to be a scholar, but after failing the exam a few times, he gave up and concentrated on farming."
"After he got your book, he felt like he had found a treasure. He has been researching it for a long time. It is estimated that it won't be long before he can develop the hybrid rice you mentioned. He has also been studying the other books you sent about growing fruits and vegetables."
"This man will definitely be a talented farmer in the future. Whether we can have enough to eat depends on him!"
Han Long's voice was a little happy and full of expectations.
Yunze smiled when he heard this. He has the knowledge of future generations, and he can't do everything himself. If he can cultivate some needed talents, it will be of great use to him in the future. With
Sheng Yiping in front of him, he wants to train him to become an agricultural expert, while Hua Yue will become his own medical expert. Of course, Yunze also wants to train chemistry experts and physics experts.
These people will be useful for future development. It's just that he can't find suitable candidates for the time being.
"Well, don't worry and let him do it. If he needs anything, try to satisfy him. By the way, Brother Han, how is the search for coal mines going?"Yunze nodded.
When he said this, he looked at Han Long.
When Han Long heard this, he said with joy:"The people who went out came back and said that they found a place that may be a coal mine in the mountains a hundred miles west of Danyang City. , I have asked people familiar with it to take a look. There should be no problem. If this is true, mining can start soon. However, there is another coal mine whose location is a bit troublesome. It is between the Houjia Salt Mine and the Iron Mine."
"When our people went to investigate, they met people from the Hou family. Those people were beaten up by the Hou family. Some of them were almost beaten to death. If we sent people to collect, we might have a conflict with the Hou family.. At this time, Han
Long's face surged with anger and he said:"The Hou family are really nothing. That place is an unclaimed land, but they insist on occupying it." Moreover, they will expel anyone who appears nearby."
Yunze frowned when he heard this.
The Hou family is domineering and arrogant. He has always known that behind the scenes, because he has relatives in the court, they act a little unscrupulously. Compared to the Huang and Zheng families, they are even worse.
And The Hou family has always been in control of the salt and iron business in several nearby prefectures. Originally, the salt and iron were controlled by the court. But later, the salt was gradually liberalized, and ordinary people could also mine and sell it.
As for iron ore, merchants It can be mined, but most of the iron products cannot flow into the people at all. Only a very small part can flow out. This is to prevent someone from using iron to make weapons.
But the people cannot survive without iron products. Kitchen knives, hatchets, Iron pots, etc., the Hou family controls the iron mines in Danyang City, and most of the iron produced is given to the court.
And a small part of it is sold at high prices. This is also what the court gives to the Hou family. Welfare can be regarded as preventing the Hou family from mining for them in vain.
The Hou family just relies on the fact that there are people in the court and does not want anyone to get close to the iron ore and salt mine areas. They say it is to prevent someone from stealing the ore. In fact, it may be because they are afraid of others. Find another outlet of the mineral vein around there. Share a share of the pie with the Hou family.
It seems that the Hou family should find a way to get rid of it now. The salt iron ore in the Hou family's hands is a good thing, no matter it is Whether it is salt mines or iron mines, both are scarce in Yunze now.
Iron mines are better, there is one in Longtoushan, and the output is enough. What is lacking now is coal, and of course salt mines.
Yunze has recently The refined salt he sells is all refined through the private salt of Hou's family. He also thought about whether he could find a salt mine nearby, but unfortunately, it didn't work out as expected.
If he was at the beach, he wouldn't have to worry. Regarding the refining of salt, sea salt is easier to purify and safer than salt mines.
Unfortunately, Danyang Prefecture is nearly a thousand miles away from the sea and is separated by a continent. It is beyond reach. Speaking of which, the Hou family’s salt mine Maybe you can find an opportunity to get the salt and iron business.
But the Hou family is different from the Huang and Zheng families. The Huang and Zheng families were able to run rampant by currying favor with the prefect Lu Qing, but behind the scenes of the Hou family, I heard that a count was backing them. Even Lu Qing is somewhat afraid of the opponent. It is a bit difficult to defeat them.
However, no matter whether the opponent is defeated or not, Yunze is still prepared to find an opportunity to defeat this cancer of Danyang City. Even if it is not for the salt and iron. Mine, and for the people of Danyang City, he must do the same.
Yunze thought about these things and continued to walk forward. When he reached the square, the third boss Chen Qinglian was in front of the queue at this time. When he saw Yunze coming, he was delighted Let his team stand there, and he ran over quickly.
The fourth leader Guo Ming also left his team there and ran over. As for the teams standing there when they saw Yun Ze, his eyes were full of respect and gratitude.
They all knew Yunze, and everyone knew that this young master gave them a new life, not only allowing them to have enough to eat, but also allowing their families to have a stable life. A place to survive.
Therefore, even though their training here is very hard, no one says a word about it. Feeling that the days are getting better day by day, everyone devotes themselves to training with enthusiasm.
Because, they vaguely know that they This is a bandit village. It may be subject to conquest by the court in the future. If you want the village to be preserved, you want to keep everyone's good life. They have to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the village.
No one thinks that it is treason to go against the court. In their understanding, they only need to eat enough to survive.
