"All have been arranged?"

In the lobby of the house, there was a bright fire, and the fire was beating under the cauldron in front of the lobby. The meat in the cauldron was grilling, which constantly exuded an attractive meat fragrance. Wang Li was here to invite the iron guards who followed him to Lianpo Mansion today.

"It has been arranged, but Mr. Zhao Shan didn't allow us to help him deal with the injury. He only asked us for some medicine and a cloth and dealt with it by himself."

"Oh?" Wang Li's face showed a smile as he heard the words of the butler Zhao Guang. Zhao Shan's real name was Shanrou. She was dressed as a man. It was rare that she was quite clever in makeup. If ordinary people didn't pay attention to it deliberately, they would probably think that she was a handsome man.

Since she was dressed as a man, how could she be treated by the injuries on her body by the male doctor in his house? Naturally, she dealt with them by herself.

"Another Grand Master, Mr. Zhao Shan, let me give this to you." Zhao Guang said as he took out a round pearl from his arms. In the dark lobby, the pearls were circulating in the dark colors and flashing fluorescently.

Wang Li took Mingzhu and smiled. He was so kind. When he handed the pearl to him on the grounds of saving his life, he said that if he encountered any trouble in Handan, he could take this pearl and come to him for help.

What does Shanrou mean to give him Mingzhu at this time?

"I am really a woman with personality, not an ordinary woman." Wang Li put away the beads: "You did this well, just do it like this. It's already a little late, so you have a good rest."

"Thank you, Grand Master." The butler Zhao Guang bowed and left.

After a night passed, Wang Li got up early as usual, completed all the exercises, and then used breakfast, and then waited in the study.

There are many wooden shelves in the study room. Those wooden shelves are the bookshelf of this era. Usually, the ones displayed are scrolls made of bamboo slips, and silk carefully maintained in wooden boxes. However, there is nothing on the shelves now.

In addition to wooden frames, the room is a brand new furniture of this era. A set of tables and chairs that are more exquisite and detailed than just made, and the table is an office desk. The entire shape looks very similar to that of modern times.

The simple and bright shape, the various drawers and cabinets under the table, are limited to the technology of this era. There is no lock on the drawer. Only the small cabinet below has an original lock that has been used for many years. However, in this era, this lock is high-end technology and ordinary people cannot see it.

The table is extremely exquisitely crafted. At the end, the entire table was painted with black paint, and there were simple and simple patterns on the surface of the table. This was obviously a lot of effort for the craftsmen to do it.

After all, it was a table made for him, the Grand Master, so we naturally had to do the best. How could we be careless?

A chair in front of the desk is also quite interesting. The entire chair structure is made of wooden, but the wooden chairs seem to be sitting in the place or the backrest at the back, which has a whole piece of leather goods. The leather goods are filled with some soft objects, so it is much more comfortable to sit on than the original simple cushions.

"Tai Shi, General Tao is outside the door to see you."

"Please come in." Wang Li sat on a soft and comfortable chair, with a stack of not thick white paper on the table. The paper brought by Wang Li's bag last time was here. There was also a pebble with a very unique shape, but it was filled with paperweight.

"Tao Fang pays homage to the Grand Master!"

"Get up and talk." Wang Li waved his hand, then pointed to the side again: "Stand." After listening to the order, Tao Fang thanked him and then sat respectfully on an ordinary chair without leather goods.

"Master Tao, I'm not here during this period. I wonder how the furniture business is doing?" Seeing Tao Fang sit down, Wang Li asked casually.

"Taishi, the furniture business is the best when it opens on the first day. He earns almost 100,000 yuan in money and goods a day, and then it starts to fall back. Finally, it stabilizes at a profit of about 50,000 yuan a day."

"However, in recent days, the craftsmen of the princes have created more comfortable tables, chairs and various furniture according to the patterns left by the Grand Master. The nobles and nobles liked each day and bought a large number of them every day, which led to some shortcomings in our craftsmen."

"Because these tables, chairs and furniture are all crafted, we sell them more expensively and get great benefits, so the profits of a day are much better than the first day of opening. When the door was closed yesterday, the accounts of the entire Handan were counted, and the profits of a day were as high as 120,000."

Speaking of the furniture business, Tao Fang was a little restrained, but at this time he let go. When he spoke, his face was full of glory, but finally sighed: "If there were more craftsmen, we would have more profits in a day."

Wang Li laughed and said, "This is okay. This furniture is a unique business. No one robs us in Handan. It is the entire Zhao State. As long as you dare not offend the royal family, those who want to do this are just small-scale quarrels in the local area, which has nothing to do with it."

"Even if the craftsmen are not enough, the money will still come to our hands in the end."

Thinking that there were not enough craftsmen, Wang Li suddenly stood up and said, "There were not enough craftsmen, so we recruited people from Handan. As long as they were willing to learn, we would give them wages even during the apprenticeship period."

"This kind of good thing can help you learn a craft and get wages. I think there must be many people who are willing to come."

"This is not good, I'm afraid this is not good. The skills of craftsmen have always been passed down from generation to generation. Even if they accept other people as apprentices, the master will provide food to the apprentice at most. The apprentice has to work for at least three years before they can learn skills. In the future, the apprentice will have to support the master. This is a violation of the rules."

Listening to what Wang Li said, Tao Fang replied, Wang Li laughed, this is the characteristic of the feudal era.

"The rules are also set by people, and I don't force them. You set a new rule for me. Any craftsman who can teach an apprentice will directly reward him with one hundred dollars. In addition, the students taught by this craftsman will earn 100% of all the money and goods earned by this craftsman in the future."

"Just this rule, the more students a craftsman teaches, the more rewards he receives directly, and the more apprentices can give them in the future. If you say this, which craftsman is not willing to teach students."

When Tao Fang heard this, his eyes lit up.

"Just give me instructions and set this rule up as soon as possible." Wang Li thought for a moment again: "In addition, the money and goods in Handan flow into our pockets, but they don't need it, which is not good."

"Mr. Tao, my mansion looked quite big in the past, but in the future, the things are getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more visitors in the family. This mansion is still a little smaller. You are here, choose a suitable place with me, and I want to build a larger mansion."

"The manpower required to build a house will definitely be a lot of. As long as the labor force is required, General Manager Tao and I will recruit from the residents of Handan. The wages and food benefits can be slightly higher than usual."

"No!" Tao Fang agreed with the promise respectfully, but he was still thinking about the previous rule of Wang Li. When he thought about this rule, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more wonderful it became.

Wang Li nodded and sorted out the work of the craftsman just now, and found that there were indeed not many other things to add. This era is in the Warring States Period, and a hundred schools of thought contend. Although it is generally backward, the ideas and ideas in many places are even comparable to those in modern times.

Just like Wang Li thought of rectifying the assembly line in this era, but found that this era had it. At that time, he was thankful that he had no big words, otherwise he would have been embarrassed.

In addition to this aspect, there are many things that are incomparable to the emperors in this era. Not to mention anything else, just talk about military affairs. In the Warring States Period, the scale of wars became larger and larger, and wars of millions of scales were not uncommon. The two sides of the Battle of Changping confronted each of them forty or five hundred thousand people. When Qin destroyed Chu in later generations, they used troops that could be mobilized by the country, and one country alone mobilized 600,000.

As for the vassal states like Qin and Zhao, they can fight such great wars. Even if the soldiers participating in the exhibition may not be completely elite, each with old and weak militia, and even women will take over, this kind of comprehensive mobilization ability and maintenance is really exaggerated.

Thinking of the assembly line and the war mobilization capabilities of the countries, Wang Li was surprised and his mind returned to the present.

"By the way, there is another thing, General Manager Tao, before I went into seclusion, I had a general manager who opened a recruitment hall. Recruiting talents and being a guest, how is this done?"

"Tao Shi, the Tao Fang of the Recruitment Hall has selected a place to open it according to the instructions of the Tai Shi. According to the Tai Shi, no matter the origin, he has a skill and skill. In the past few days, Tao Fang has recruited forty-three people. Unfortunately, there are not many people with real talents and virtues, most of them are unworthy people, and some people who crow and dog thieves in the market."

"Tai Shi, Tao Fang has a saying here, don't you know whether it should be said or not?" After reporting on the affairs of the Recruitment Hall, Tao Fang suddenly raised his head and stopped talking.

"Mr. Tao has something to say, there is no need to hesitate."

"The Taishi, regardless of origin, only one skill is included, and even the most powerful among the thieves are included. The threshold for the Taishi disciples is too low. Tao Fang is afraid that those truly talented scholars think that the Taishi is close to the villain, and at the same time, they are ashamed to join these people and not come to apply for the election."

Tao Fangluo pondered slightly, and then said bluntly to Wang Li. When Wang Li heard this, it was indeed a problem, but when he thought about it, he immediately had an idea.

"Tao Fang, you can find a way to promote it. Just say that my Wang Li's mansion can even use thieves and thieves, so what if you are more talented?"

"Talents are like cones, and they should break out of their bags. If they don't even have the confidence to beat civilians or even thieves, what kind of talents are they? Such scholars will not accept them even if they beg me Wang Li."

"This?" Hearing Wang Li's words, Tao Fang hesitated slightly and then woke up. However, he did not expect that the question just now, the Grand Master casually changed his perspective and became like this.

"No." Understand the mystery, Tao Fang respectfully agreed.

"You just said that there are some people who crowed and robbed, but there are not many talented and virtuous people, so there are also some. But what kind of talented and virtuous people can be recruited? It is better to say that those outstanding people among these people can be of great use?"
