Chapter 88 Myself (the third day of the new year)
“The grassland is too bitter.”
Angis held a fresh thatched cane in his hand, which is one of the few cheap sweet flavors in the north. The reed-sized cane will only appear in the areas north of Liaodong in summer and autumn. It is small and fine in quantity, and sometimes the sugar content is not enough. However, the socked cane is in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the sunny side of the hills is mostly with the heads of herbs, which are also like grass-like.
"Bao Dalang!"
"Ambassador Wang!"
With Zhang De's words, there are naturally some concerned officials in Liaodong who come to help with the process. Other big names generally do not remember the favors of small characters, but Zhang De's reputation for more than 20 years has been well received by all those who have been in contact with them in the east, west, south and north.
The identity of the Wang family in Taiyuan cannot allow the "Ambassador of the Fighting Ke" to show off his power in Liaodong, not to mention that the "Ambassador of the Fighting Ke" sounds quite bad.
The big men came to Northeast China to be matchmakers... there was no one else.
The "Ambassador of Fake" received a double salary. One is the monthly salary of the "Ambassador" who is a mediator. In addition to the basic salary, if it is not a single media, there will be commissions. This money is offered by various Northeast Governors' Offices and belongs to the welfare of the Ministry of War. Because it is mainly to resettle the troops of the garrison, and while solving physiological needs, it is also necessary to respond to the call of the state.
The second is the literal meaning of "Fa Ke". "Ke" is grass and trees, and what controls plants and trees.
Forest farm management, dividing areas, sorting tree species... These tasks are all done by "Deke Ambassadors". In terms of business output, it has nothing to do with them, they just help you with your own sex.
This money is collected for three months, which means it is divided into the first, middle and late months, and it will be collected once every ten days. Of course, such a request is also to allow the "Ambassador of the Fargo" to inspect the forest farm he manages once every ten days.
The reason why trees cannot be cut down randomly has nothing to do with protecting the forest. However, when the imperial court built large buildings, there were standards for the wood size requirements and it could not be cut down too thin.
Furthermore, there are requirements for choosing tree species, because it also involves the shipbuilding industry, and export materials are also standard. Furthermore, some hardwoods are special materials, and many weapons use hardwood. This kind of wood is strictly controlled and random cut is a serious crime.
The "Ambassador of the Fake" can receive double wages, and there is no shortage of money and life is easy, but the intention is much more than that of ordinary foreign officials. Furthermore, the "Ambassador of the Fake" is a temporary dispatch. In the system, only the Liaodong governors and the Korean Road have such a seat.
Like Jiannan Road, it is also an important export place for wood, but there is no such position, but it is directly assigned to local prefectures, counties or military camps.
When Lao Zhang heard about the business scope of Liaodong's "Ambassador of Fighting Ke", he thought to himself that if he did such an errand, he would be afraid that he would be cursing "Ambassador of Fighting Ke" every day...
"Since I am my own person, I won't say it's empty. When Bao Dalang's people arrive at the field, they have to pay the armor and tools. The boss will look at the materials and convert them into cash. If you don't have cash, you can also ask for some tools."
"Don't worry, Ambassador Wang, we are all good people."
Angis looked at Ambassador Wang with a smile. Bao Zhong nodded slightly not far away. Angis immediately understood and lowered his voice and asked, "Ammin Wang, do you think we want money and tools?"
As he said that, he took out a gold, the size of his finger, probably picked up from the wilderness, and stuffed it into Ambassador Wang's hand.
"Hey! I see you outside, I see you outside! I'm all my own people, so don't be polite... Hey hey, then I'm ashamed..."
Putting the gold head in the belt, Ambassador Wang said to Angis: "Brother comes from outside and wants to save a fortune. If you think it is the most cost-effective to get cash, you are wrong. Brother Bao, then you will choose a tool. Don't choose a double-person tug-of-warp in the tool. Things look big, but cutting trees is wasteful. Choose a bend saw, and you will be all made in Hanyang!"
Angis' eyes lit up, thinking that this gold is not a loss, and some of the small market conditions below may not be able to fully understand.
I only talk about selecting tools, and there are several groups.
Paying the A-grade equipment is considered a reward, because you are a good citizen. Of course, a good citizen must issue a good citizen certificate... No, of course you need to reward.
This batch of tools is the only one that is considered to be owned.
The tools for subsequent forest farm management cannot be brought back. They are forest farm resources and are cared for by dedicated personnel.
What are the guys who eat in the future? Apart from a piece of strength, they are just a tool for cutting trees. The "Half-Moon Axe" is not impossible to make up for it, but if you put in a lot of effort in a day, they are only fifteen trees. Whether they can cut them well is still a matter of different reasons.
But the situation is very different when using a bend saw. A lumberjack can double the efficiency and accumulate in one generation, which is much better than an ordinary small farmer with one or two hundred acres in his home.
Although logging requires market fluctuations, the empire is in a period of high expansion and high expansion. What is predictable during this period is that because the population is too "sparse", it is likely that orderly or disorderly expansion will be completed in fifty or even a hundred years.
Expansion is necessary, at most there are only formal differences.
Scholars within the empire can clearly feel this development direction that is very different from the former Sui Dynasty. The way people pursue interests has changed, the structure of the interest territory within the empire has also changed, and the speed of the power changes among the middle and high-level officials of the empire is unprecedented in these twenty years.
The "request for inclusion" of a small border tribe is just an alternative reflection of this change. It is insignificant in isolation, but this insignificant accumulated in large quantities, which is the current situation in Mobei.
A large number of rich young men will not die in internal tribe annexation, but will follow the empire to spread and seek channels for ascending, and the empire is also willing to give channels for ascending.
"Thank you Ambassador Wang for your support!"
"Hey, they are all my own people, they should, they should."
After saying that, Ambassador Wang took out another business card and handed it to Angis, "Brother Bao, this is a famous 'tooth filing' veteran in the old place of 'Daxing City'. If your saw is broken, you can repair it in three or two days. If it were someone else, it would probably take ten days and half a month."
"Ambassador Wang, how does this make..."
"Owner, your own people..."
Angis was surprised that this kind of news was really not something that ordinary people could find out. What kind of craftsmen are easy to use, which material is the most realistic, and which clerk eats people and vomits bones... It is difficult to get a pulse in the place without torture for a year or two.
A business card is worthless, but Aegis doesn't know how many favors it is.
"When the family is settled, Ambassador Wang, I will invite you to dinner at that time. Bao's family has no other ones, so there is enough mutton!"
"Sure, certain..."
After another politeness, Bao Zhong said to Angis after seeing off Ambassador Wang: "Brother, the people who manage hygiene in the past few days will come to settle the house. I have to listen to them and my family will be restrained."
"Don't worry, I just want to bring my tribe members to a good life. The grassland is so hard."
After saying that, Angis looked at the sign "Baojia Forest Farm" erected in the distance and sighed, "If the Tang Dynasty had not destroyed the Turks, I would have died long ago."
At this time, he did not speak Mengwu dialect, but a half-mature Youzhou dialect, with a little Luoyang accent, and he still learned it from his brother.
"If the Turks don't die, how can there be a good life?"
Bao Zhong also came from the shadow of Turkic villains when he was a child. From the beginning of memory, anything that the Turkic nobles liked would be impossible to keep, women, cows, sheep, weapons, treasures...
All this did not change until the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks.
"Live well in the future."
"Yes."
