Great Song Pirate

Chapter 118 Dividends at the end of the year
Jin Huo heard from Xu Yi that the bomb was complicated to make, not easy to obtain, and very dangerous, so he temporarily gave up the idea of ​​asking Xu Yi to hurry up and make a batch, but let him hurry up and debug it, so that he can make more in the next year Just do more, Xu Yi nodded and agreed.

Li Bo knew that Xu Yi was deliberately shirking. This bomb was nothing more than an empty stone ball filled with gunpowder and plugged in with a fuse.But he understood Xu Yi's thoughts. Now Li Bo admired Xu Yi very much. As long as Xu Yi did something, it was right in his eyes, so he didn't point it out.

After seeing off Jin Huhu and others, when Li Bo was the only one left by his side, Xu Yi asked Li Bo, "Do you understand why I didn't agree to the master?"

"The subordinates understand that the head is now arrogant and doesn't pay attention to the imperial court. The military master is afraid that after he has this powerful thing, he will rashly provoke the imperial court's official ships and even the navy, causing disaster on our island. I don't know. Is Li Bo right?" Li Bo replied.

Xu Yi patted Li Bo's shoulder, nodded and said: "Li Bo also knows me! You and I know about this matter, I don't want to come forward, you can find some stonemasons to make more hollow stone bombs in private, and store them in kaolin The warehouse of the workshop is ready!"

Li Bo nodded and agreed. Although Xu Yi was lying to Jin Huhu, he still had to continue doing what he was doing.

Xue Tu finally rushed back to Dulong Island before the festival and completed the task assigned by Xu Yi. After the Li family tried this soap, they immediately saw the value of this thing. I heard that this kind of thing was also made by Xu Yi. After the creation, he even regarded Xu Yi as a capable person, and told Jin Huhu that the Li family would definitely promote this kind of soap, and asked Dulong Island to just make it, as much as they had, and asked Xue Tu to determine the price of this soap. Xue Tutui said that the production of this product is very complicated, it is not easy to make, and the cost is extremely high. The specific matters will be decided after returning to the island, after meeting Xu Yi, and after the cost is approved. The soap he brought to Hangzhou is all To promote and use it for the Li family, the Li family took it seriously, and left a valuable concept of this soap in their hearts, which laid the groundwork for Dulong Island's soap making in the future to make a fortune.

Xu Yi praised Xue Tu's quick-wittedness, made Xue Tu feel relieved, and quietly handed Xu Yi a letter, saying in a low voice: "Miss Cuiyu and the two of them are all well, and the brothers who stayed in Hangzhou sent them away As the wife of the military adviser, there is nothing wrong, the military teacher can rest assured, but the two of them really miss the military teacher, and asked me to send this letter to the military teacher!"

Xu Yi hurriedly nodded and smiled knowingly, and hid the slightly scented letterhead in his arms. This sneaky feeling is really exciting. No wonder men like to flirt. It makes sense, huh, huh!

When there was no one in private, Xu Yi secretly opened the letterhead, and a few lines of beautiful handwriting on it came to his eyes. There was no narrative in the letter, only a small poem: "Silently go to the west building alone, the moon is like a hook, the lonely sycamore tree The deep courtyard locks the Qingqiu. The cutting is constant, and the reasoning is still chaotic. It is the sorrow of parting, don’t just feel it in your heart.” This word is a song written by Li Yu, the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty. It was originally to express his bitter cry after being imprisoned , but when used here, it just expresses Cuiyu's parting sorrow for Xu Yi, which is also appropriate. Even if Xu Yi is not a scholar, he knows Li Yu's Wu Yecry, which has been praised through the ages. After shaking his head and laughing, Carefully put away the letterhead.

Except for those stationed on Huangyu Island and Cancer Island in the Fusang Sea and a few brothers from Hangzhou, the pirates on the island have all returned to Dulong Island and are busy celebrating the New Year. This time of the year is the only time on the island. When he was free, all kinds of work had come to a halt, and it was considered the Spring Festival holiday. Jin Huhu discussed with everyone about the New Year.

"According to the usual practice, it's time to seal some red envelopes for everyone. Boy Xu, you told me how much money we've harvested this year. If it's too much, I'll seal a big red envelope for everyone to make everyone happy." !" Jin Huo said to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi took out an account book, and only he could understand the things on it, because all of them were Arabic numerals. Except for him, even the masters here couldn't understand, Xu Yi looked at The account book was reported: "This year we can say that we have had a great harvest on the island, not counting the things that Li Tong left behind at the beginning, just these trips out for hunting, after we cashed in all kinds of goods, plus the harvest from Pu Yinjian on Huangyu Island After shaving off the expenses, I got 310 taels of silver, 2000 copper coins, not including iron coins, and more than [-] taels of gold. That's the harvest. !"

After hearing the number reported by Xu Yi, Jin Huo and the others, except for Xue Tu, all opened their mouths in shock. After a while, Jin Huo exclaimed: "My darling! Why are there so many? I I only know that we have made a lot of money this year, but I never thought that there would be so much! How can we spend so much money!"

It's no wonder he was surprised, because Xu Yi has always been responsible for managing money. He, Jin Huo, can't read, has no interest or ability to do it, and with his trust in Xu Yi, he can't do it at all. I didn't ask about it, but Xu Yi looked down on me a lot. Xu Yi thought to himself, you are a shopkeeper every day, and you don't care about anything. Of course, you don't know how much money we made. Applying a modern In other words, you are a foolish chairman. If I, the general manager, hadn't worked hard and hadn't been greedy, your company would have closed down without knowing how!hey-hey!

Qian Laoben and the others were also quite surprised. Although this year went smoothly, they did not expect to earn so much money. In the past when they were in Tiger Island, they worked hard for a year and could make a thousand dollars. Two silver coins is considered a high incense. After hearing this astronomical figure, they really couldn't believe their ears. They chattered for a while, and their faces were full of ecstasy.

"How dare we earn so much money! Well, I, Jin Huo, am not a stingy person, and there is no place for me to keep so much money. I will give everyone a big red envelope this year. Look, boy Let’s share it with everyone, it’s okay for those of us here to share more, and the brothers below will all give a hundred and eighty taels of silver!” Jin Huo laughed loudly, and told Xu Yi that he gave the spoils again. The job was left to Xu Yi.

After hearing Jin Huo's words, Xu Yi almost didn't fall off the chair. This Jin Huo is really ignorant and uneducated!I don't even know how to do basic accounting, so I arranged it like this. The income on the island is more than 5 taels, not counting copper coins, but there are more than 2000 people on the island, not counting the family members on the island. One person shares 80 taels of silver, how can this account be calculated!Divide 25 by 80, and one person is at most 20 taels of silver. If Jin Huo opened his mouth and asked everyone to share 10,000 taels of silver, he would need at least [-] million taels of silver to distribute. Where did Xu Yi ask Xu Yi to find Yinzi?cut!This confused chairman is really interesting!

With black lines all over Xu Yi's face, he said to Jin Huo: "Father-in-law, I'm afraid this won't work!"

"Oh? Why can't it be done? Could it be that you think there are too few points? Why not get more points!" Jin Huo wondered.

Xu Yi finally fell off the chair and slipped to the ground, he was so sweaty!He got up and said to Jin Huo: "It's not too little, it's too much. Even if one person is divided into 80 taels of silver, we need at least 20 million taels of silver to share. You let me Where can I find so much money to distribute to everyone!"

The people in the room finally figured out the account, so they all fell to the ground!Dare to hear that there is a lot of money, but now there are a lot more people on the island, and there is still not much money distributed to the heads of the people!well!Jin Huo was too happy too early!

Jin Huhu wiped his sweat with a smirk on his face: "So that's what happened! Hehe, hehe! I don't know how to count! Hehe! Then you mean that we can't share much money? It seems that we have to go out quickly during the Chinese New Year Work is the key, who makes us have so many people now? Let’s all say yes!”

Everyone was sweating together. They are really talented masters, but thinking about it, they didn't figure it out just now, and they are no better than Tiger Jin!

"Then how does the military adviser give out this red envelope on the island?" Everyone finally turned their attention to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi bowed his head and pondered for a while. He had just figured out the purchasing power of one tael of silver now. One tael of silver could probably buy five or six shi of rice. Calculated by a catty, one tael of silver is roughly worth more than 1000 yuan. One person’s ten taels of silver is worth more than 1 yuan. It’s not a lot, but the situation on the island is different from that on land. The island is basically a small communism. Everyone is free to eat and drink without spending money. , meaning little, so he said: "In my opinion, the life of our brothers on the island should be said to be quite good now. Compared with the counterparts on land or other islands, the life is quite affluent. Under the tolerance of the master, there has never been any shortage. But everyone’s food and clothing costs, I think this money can be expressed a little bit, each person can send five taels of silver, as for all of you here, they are all big figures on the island, and there are really not many places where money can be used here, everyone expresses I don’t know if it’s a hundred taels of silver, but there are some bosses and brothers below who are more worried, and each of them will give 20 taels of silver, so that some silver can be left for future expenses on the island. I wonder if this is okay?”

Regarding Xu Yi's distribution plan, everyone thought it was not much, but they all thought it was reasonable, so they all nodded. Xue Tu and the others immediately said that they didn't need money, and Jin Huo nodded in agreement, anyway, he couldn't treat him badly. What are these people, all good things are given to them, and they can't offend these brothers.
