Chapter 133(2/3)

The teacher responsible for training them was Wang Wei, a famous prostitute who was as famous as Liu Rushi in Jiangnan.

Qian Qianyi said: "Today's poems and prose are declining, and the light and air between the Kuibi is dull. The Taoist in Caoyi and my Hedong Jun, the clear prose and beautiful verses, show off between the six bridges of Xiling."

Huang Zongxi also said: "At that time, there were willows like this in Yushan Mountain and Wang Xiuwei in the clouds. They all sang and followed the wind and were heard all over the world."

Caoyi Taoist is Wang Wei's nickname, and Wang Xiuwei is Wang Wei's nickname.

The disciples taught by Wang Wei are very familiar with the job, let alone dealing with ordinary customers, even if they are talented people.



As Liaodong Bank began to lend, it immediately aroused everyone's heated discussion. Commercial loans came second, and the ones who were most excited were actually the families of Ning Navy officers and martyrs in southern Liaoning.

Because they are the only class in southern Liaoning that own their own farmland. Due to their number, many people's land has not been cultivated. If there are cattle, horses, or more farming tools, wouldn't it be...

Chen Dayong is the supervisor of the Ninghai Navy. According to his military position, he has 300 acres of land. In addition to the military merits of previous beheadings, Chen Laosan relied on his son Chen Dayong to own more than 860 acres of land.

Chen Laosan was a very thief. When the refugees flocked to southern Liaoning, he took the opportunity to take fifty-three concubines to his son Chen Dayong. The oldest of these concubines was thirty-seven or eighteen years old, and the youngest was twelve years old.

Three years old, some with sons and daughters,

In Chen Laosan's eyes, age is not important, and appearance is not important. The most important thing is that with these fifty-three concubines and a dozen adopted grandchildren, their family's

More than 860 acres of land are ready for farming.

Chen Laosan took his fifty-three daughters-in-law, seventeen or eight adopted grandchildren, and seventy or eighty people to work together, plus temporary hired laborers. After exhausting work, he finally managed to cultivate 860 acres of land.

Most of them have been planted.

Due to the fertile land in southern Liaoning and timely irrigation, these crops grow very well. In Chen Laosan's opinion, if the land cannot produce two shi of grain per mu, he will tear his eyes out.

Seeing that the weather is getting warmer and people around him are building new houses, Chen Laosan has a headache. Chen Dayong does have military pay. In the army, he eats and drinks from Cheng Shijie without spending any money.

Every month's military pay was given to Chen Laosan.

But the problem is that the fifty-three concubines are easy to use, but the problem is that they are expensive to maintain. Chen Laosan looked at his nine adobe houses, and there were five or six people crammed into each room.

It was okay when it was cold, but it is very inconvenient now. Every day, these daughters-in-law would wait until they fell asleep before they would get up and wash themselves...

It's really inconvenient.

But when the grain is harvested after autumn, Chen Laosan will definitely have money to build a house. But the problem is that after autumn, the weather will get colder, and it may be too late to build a house by then.

Chen Laosan spent five buckets of grain and invited Wu Banxian from Dengzhou Weizuo Qianhu to show him the house. If it had three rooms and fifty-nine rooms, future generations would surely be high-ranking officials.

This was Wu Banxian's nonsense, but Chen Laosan remembered it in his heart. If these fifty-nine rooms were built, it would cost hundreds of taels of silver.

Because there are so many people building houses, the construction engineering team is overwhelmed. If you want to build a house now, you can only add money. If you use good building materials, one hundred taels of silver is not enough.

Chen Laosan held a family meeting for his fifty-three daughters-in-law.

There must be no room for seating in the house, so the meeting can only be held in the courtyard. Chen Laosan said: "I thought about it and borrowed money from the bank to build a house..."

The oldest daughter-in-law is called Luo Shi, who is thirty-seven or eighteen years old this year. Her original husband's family borrowed three taels of silver from the landlord because her father-in-law was suffering from gas disease.

In the end, everyone was gone and all the money was spent. The money owed increased with interest and increased to more than 150 taels in less than two years. Their family was ruined. In order to escape the debt, the whole family ran away overnight.

While covering their escape, the landlord caught up and beat him to death.

"Dad, you must not borrow money. Otherwise, we can build our own house. We can do the work that men can do!"

She could become Chen Dayong's concubine, even if it was only in name, Chen Dayong had never touched her, or even said a few words to her, but the problem was that Luo was too satisfied with the Chen family.

With 860 acres of land, a pond of your own, and a three-acre homestead, what else can you think of?

Since entering the Chen family, although Luo Shi has done a lot of work, he has never been beaten or hungry. What else can he beg for?

Chen Laosan also knew that these daughters-in-law were poor people, and some of them had been ruined by loan sharks. He knocked on the table: "Let me just say one thing, this bank is owned by a handsome man."

"The handsome one?"

"Yes, when our Chen family didn't hang out with the commander-in-chief, we always had a lot of trouble. Dayong became a soldier for the commander-in-chief, and later he was promoted. Our family's 860 acres of land are all

The commander-in-chief rewards us. The commander-in-chief is willing to lend us money. We can just collect the grain and return it to the commander-in-chief. The commander-in-chief is also considerate of his subordinates. There are many people like Dayong who have no money to build a house at home. I will lend the commander-in-chief ten taels of silver.

The interest is only one or two dollars a year!”

Chen Laosan smiled and said: "We are still two months away from the end of autumn. In two months, our family will have a mountain of harvested grain, and there will be no place to store it at home. This house must be built, and we must borrow money to build it."

, not only build a house, but also buy cattle and horses!”

As you can understand when buying cattle, if there are cattle this year, spring plowing will be much easier.

"Why do you want to buy a horse?"

"Dayong is already an official of the imperial court. If he goes out to ride in a donkey cart again, he will be laughed at!"

Chen Laosan pointed at his face and said: "I don't have to have this old face, but Dayong can't embarrass the commander-in-chief. If others see this, they will say that the commander-in-chief treats his subordinates harshly. We must add to this face!"

"

Chen Laosan used his 860 acres of land as a mortgage, borrowed 420 taels of silver from the bank, and planned to spend 200 taels of silver to build a new house. After all, the Chen family has a large population now.

Then he bought sixteen cows and two good horses for eight taels of silver per cow...

There are many people like Chen Laosan in southern Liaoning. They can't wait to build new houses and buy cattle or horses, which greatly stimulates the livestock industry in southern Liaoning.

Regarding making money, some people joke that if you stand on the wind, a pig can fly.

This sentence is equally applicable to southern Liaoning. Zhang Chen, a widow, succeeded because she had great courage and dared to think and do. In just six months, her net worth exceeded 3,000 taels.

Regardless of the fact that the asset appraisal given by the bank is 2,980 taels of silver, the problem is that the bank's appraisal is falsely low. If it is falsely high, once the borrower has no money to repay the money, the bank will have no choice but to admit it.

Unlucky?

Will banks do business at a loss?

Definitely not, even if it is a 100% loan, there is still a certain profit margin.

If Zhang and Chen really went bankrupt, these assets would be enough to make the banks happy.

This is the cruel reality.

Even though the annual salary of many people in Liaonan exceeds twelve taels of silver, it does not mean that these people are worth twelve taels of silver.

Because the value of twelve taels of silver was given by Cheng Shijie to ordinary people in southern Liaoning.

In order to ensure the basic living security of the people in southern Liaoning, the Management Committee began to promulgate the "Liaodong Workers Protection Law". Article 1 of this protection law stipulates that any enterprise, factory, or store that employs employees is not allowed to withhold wages from employees.

Workers have the obligation to work and the right to receive wages. This is not charity.

Ordinary workers in southern Liaoning enjoy a minimum wage of one or two taels of silver, and food is included. If any accident occurs during work, whether it is a worker's operating error or an equipment accident, resulting in a work-related death or injury, the business owner must be held responsible to the end.

.

The introduction of this protection law made businessmen in southern Liaoning lament.

If you violate this protection law, it is actually very simple. It can range from a fine to a serious penalty of bankruptcy.

Farming in the Central Plains is likely to go bankrupt. In a disaster year, the tragedy is unimaginable. Not to mention the crops, the bark of the trees has been eaten away. Apart from people, there is no living thing left in the entire village, including cats and dogs.

Everything was eaten, even big livestock like cows and horses were not spared. People also knew that eating cows and horses would make farming more difficult in the future. But when people were hungry, they had no choice. Even their children could be replaced.

I don't care about food, livestock or anything like that.

Even if they are not eaten by humans, animals will starve to death.

There is no such worry here in Liaonan. Even if the crops really fail and there is no food, you can dig wild vegetables, go into the sea to catch fish, or fish for kelp.

Cheng Shijie not only set up four salt factories in southern Liaoning, but also had a production scale of 300,000 pieces of rock salt per year. You must know that these salts are already in demand by tens of millions of people.

When Cheng Shijie received the report from the salt factory, he was also stunned.

Unknowingly, so much salt was produced. Even though a lot of salt was used to pickle horse meat in the spring, and now salt is used to pickle salted fish, there is still too much salt in stock.

Cheng Shijie looked at these numbers with emotion.

He was thinking about dumping salt to the south of the Yangtze River and the Central Plains?

Of course, this salt market is the meat of salt merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. They use the sun-dried salt in Liaonan for their own use. They have no objection. Originally, Liaonan was a non-existent market in the eyes of salt merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

This consumer market was cultivated by Cheng Shijie and naturally belongs to Cheng Shijie. They have no objection.

It's useless to have opinions, because Cheng Shijie is a general with a heavy army. What can they do with Cheng Shijie?

Reasonable?

Cheng Shijie definitely regarded their words as farts.

Giving gifts and giving bribes...

Cheng Shijie didn't notice their three melons and two dates.

Assassination?

Come and bury one, come and bury a pair.

Cheng Shijie would not be polite to them.

Cheng Shijie summoned Yang Chen, who was in charge of the salt factory business. This Yang Chen was a senior salt worker. He started working as a salt worker in Nanyang, Henan Province at the age of thirteen and had been working for more than thirty years. Although he did not say it explicitly, Cheng Shijie guessed that it should be later.

Wugang is the only city named after a company.

Wugang Group created Wugang City.
