After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Liao Yu was thoughtful and thoughtful, and he acted quite skillfully.In addition, Xuan Mansion was originally his ancestral home, which took advantage of the convenient location.Both the negotiation with Wala and the running-in with the local government went smoothly.

If he wants to work in the Xuanfu, he naturally wants to give the local a little bit of sweetness, so that the local officials can increase their achievements.

Otherwise, there is no need for others to trouble him.He only needs to be passive and slow down at certain times, and it is enough for him to drink a pot.

Liao Yu was also promoted by the sage and transferred to the capital after he made political achievements in the local area. He knew all about the twists and turns.

But to be clear, he will not fool people's minds, embarrassing both parties, and unable to get off the stage.

Anyway, their household is destined to have meat to eat, so they have to leave some soup for others, right?

When playing politics, what you pay attention to is hello, me, everyone, and eating alone is not a good thing.

What's more, before he came, Shi Nai had already explained the bottom line of concessions to the local government.Liao Yu's methods were superb, and he only used half of the bargaining chips, and he and the local officials of the Xuanfu were very happy.

Half a year later, Liao Yu returned to the capital with the first batch of dozens of carts of wool purchased.The follow-up acquisition matters will be jointly supervised by the five imperial merchants selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so there is no need for him to worry about the dignified servant.

Since Shi Nai built the loom by himself after being self-taught, and the technology of degreasing wool was also explored by himself, and they are still in the process of perfection and improvement.

Therefore, the felt production at the beginning was not very smooth.

But because this is a new thing, white, soft and warm, it is loved by wives and young ladies from rich families.

Moreover, people are competitive.I like good things, and I prefer rare good things.

Because only if you have it and others don't, can you show that you are different and that you are better than others.

Therefore, the price of wool felt was raised to an extremely high level, not only did not make enough money as Shi Nai expected, but he even made a small profit.

Later, as the equipment was distributed and improved, the workers' skills became more and more proficient, and the price of wool felt gradually dropped.

But the price has fallen, the quantity has increased greatly, and the profit has also increased.

As long as it felt like a business, those civil and military officials who took part in it were so happy from ear to ear.It also made those who refused to repay the treasury owed earlier feel regretful.

Not to mention, Shi Nai later introduced woolen yarn and a method of knitting sweaters with woolen yarn.

The girls were clever, and the method Shi Nai gave was only the simplest one. They got it in their hands, and it didn't take long for them to learn without a teacher, and they launched various designs one after another.

After Shi Nai figured out how to dye the wool more evenly, he simply told the sage, and in the name of the sage, he set up the first real factory in Daxia, specially recruiting skilled hand weavers, using wool of different colors, Blankets of various designs and colors are woven and sold all over the country, even in the grasslands.

Blankets are more beautiful and softer than felt. Not only the nobles of Daxia like it, but also the nobles of Wala.

Both the treasury and Nenu made a lot of money because of this, and those who invested in the shares also drank soup and drank their mouths full of oil.It's just that those officials who want to pay back the money but have nowhere to go can only watch helplessly, without their share.

Shi Nai reckoned that it was almost enough to slip them away, so he sent someone to release the news, saying that the busyness of the household department had come to an end for the time being.

As soon as the wise man heard the news, he hurriedly took the money to the account department to write off the account.Those who were a little slow to respond knew what to do when they saw that they had paid back the money.

However, within half a month, those who had procrastinated for several years and refused to pay back the money would pay back the money.

At this point, the matter of debt collection by the household department finally came to an end, and Shi Nai also formally handed over to the sage.

Thinking of the twists and turns of the past few years, and Shi Nai's perseverance, not afraid of being famous, the sage said with emotion, "Shi Nai has worked hard."

Shi Nai said sternly, "Being loyal to a sage, how hard is it?"

Since he entered the court, every word and deed of the saint has been seen in his eyes.Seeing that he remains the same and never changes his original intention, the saint trusts him a little more, and speaks more casually.

"I heard, what kind of factory did you run?"

"Back to the sage, it's the factory."

"Oh, yes, the factory." What the saint mainly wanted to say was not this novel and awkward term, but another thing, "I also heard that most of the recruits in your factory are women?"

Shi Nai said: "Exactly. I never thought that such a trivial matter would reach the saint so quickly."

That's what he said, but in fact, before Shi Nai made this decision, he had already expected that recruiting women to work would be criticized by the court officials.

And the reason why he did this, in fact, did not have any lofty original intentions.

It is because the system has said that women in this era have been suppressed for a long time. Although they are used to obedience, they actually have a lot of resentment that they don't even know about.

If Shi Nai can improve the status of some women, this resentment will be greatly alleviated, and an energy body higher than merit will be obtained.

That is, luck.

At that time, Shi Nai was silent for a moment, and only asked: "Is the Heavenly Dao Qi Luck a great help to the System Immortal?"

The system said: "If I get the luck of heaven, all my damage can be repaired immediately."

Then, Shi Nai began to investigate, arrange, plan, and implement.

Yes, his original intention was actually to repay his kindness.

For him, without a system, he would not have had the chance to do it all over again.Whether it is giving him a new life, or giving him a chance to change his destiny, for Shi Nai, it is the grace of rebuilding.

How could he not repay such a great favor?

If the system asks him to do evil with kindness, even if he repays the kindness, he will stop at once, and the cause and effect will almost be resolved.

But the system is to teach him to do great deeds for the country and the people.Shi Nai is willing to be driven by the system fairy for the rest of his life.

It was expected that Gui expected it, and it didn't delay Shi Nai's complaints in front of the saint.

The saint smiled inexplicably, "It's not that the news spread quickly, but that some people's hands are quick."

He pinched two memorials, lifted them up and shook them, "See, it's all indecent to visit you. I'll keep them all."

Shi Nai hurriedly knelt down and bowed to the ground, "Thank you saint for protecting you."

"Get up." The sage said, "What you have done is all for the benefit of the people, and I will naturally protect you. These people really think of me as an old fool."

The reason why the sage kept all these excerpts unpublished was naturally because he had already investigated them.

Those women went to work in factories to subsidize their families, and the living standards of the people near the capital have improved significantly.

The common people feel that as long as they can live a good life, then today is their reborn parents.They are not familiar with the officials in the court, so they only recognize saints.

Life is not good, I feel it is the fault of the saint;

If it doesn't rain when it's supposed to rain, I think it's the saint's fault;

It rains too much in the sky, and I think it is the saint's fault;

Somewhere the ground moved, and I still felt it was the saint's fault.

Now that their life is getting better and better, it is naturally the merit of the saints.

Nowadays, many people have discussed in private, saying that today's saint is a rare king and minister who is rare in a hundred years.

A sage has no other hobbies in his life, but power and fame.

The words passed by the common people in private naturally represent the aspirations of the common people.How could the sage be unhappy if he won the hearts of the people so much?

This is much more than the "damage to the holy name" written in the notebooks of those censors.

"You don't have to pay attention to these people, just do what you should do."

"Yes, saint." Shi Nai solemnly replied.

******

In June of this year, a major event happened in Guangzhou, which disturbed the hearts of Jiangnan, thousands of miles away.Especially the rich and powerful salt merchants, suddenly became panic-stricken.

——There is a large amount of salt that is as clean as snow, as fine as dust, and without the slightest bitterness flowing out of Guangzhou. The price is so low that ordinary people can afford three meals a day.

How can this make the salt merchants in Jiangnan not panic?

The salt they would rather hoard in warehouses than sell cheap is now sold cheaply and no one wants to ask for it.

Because the salt produced in Guangzhou is not only cheaper, but also of better quality.

"How is this going?"

"Which one is so unruly? Not only sell a lot, but also set the price so low?"

"What about the ones in our warehouse?"

……

A group of salt merchants from the south of the Yangtze River gathered together, some were in a hurry and some were calm.

"Salt boiled in seawater, the output is limited. I want to see how long they can last?" This is a salt merchant surnamed Huang.

"That's right. In my opinion, they just want to lure us into chaos and sell salt at a low price. When our salt is sold out, they will rule the world." This is a salt merchant surnamed Guo.

Guo and Huang are both highly respected, and after their reassurance, the salt merchants really calmed down.

Jiangsu governor's yamen, and Yangzhou patrol salt censor's yamen.Although Jia Jing and Lin Ruhai were not together, they both made people pay attention to the reactions of the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River.

Having stayed in Jiangsu for four or five years, Jia Jing, the governor, has already lived up to his name.Under his command, he also recruited several staff members.

On this day, he took Jia Zhen to discuss this matter with his staff.

"How about it, are those salt merchants still calm?"

Several staff members looked at each other, and Mr. Sun spoke first, "There is no movement from the other companies, but the Guo family and the Huang family are using their own channels to secretly sell the salt in their hands."

Jia Jing laughed: "Oh, these two have a keen sense of smell."

"It's not just sharpness?" Mr. Li smiled, "According to the informant's report, the other salt merchants were panicked, but these two calmed down. I'm afraid that those salt merchants who were appeased by them will not It would never have occurred to me that these two companies have already secretly sold the salt in their hands."

These two people are more than cunning?It's just killing my colleagues here.
