One Piece of Song Dynasty

If Li Xin heard the conversation between the two, she would definitely give them a thumbs up and tell them that most of the content of their conversation was the same as in history. However, at this time, Li Xin was discussing things with the housekeeper. .

Li Xin said, "Uncle An, I'm back."

The housekeeper teased, "The young master still knows to come back. A certain family thought that the young master had forgotten his home. Didn't the young master agree to come back when he went to Ruzhou? Why did he go to Taiyuan?"

Li Xin smiled and said, "Uncle An, calm down. I just thought of going to Taiyuan at the last minute, which delayed my return home and made Uncle An worry more."

The housekeeper said, "Okay, tell me. Why did the young master come to visit a certain family?"

Li Xin said, "I came to Uncle An to discuss the expansion of the restaurant. My next step is to open five restaurants in Yan'an, Qingjian City, Qingzhou, Cangzhou, and Fuzhou. The shopkeepers will choose from the three restaurants in Quanzhou and Tokyo." , Huaian’s five restaurants."

The housekeeper thought for a while and said, "Okay, someone understands."

Li Xin continued, "Let the shopkeepers and apprentices from the three stores in Quanzhou come over tomorrow. I want to tell them something. I'll wait until they come back from Tokyo and Huai'an."

The steward replied, "Yes, sir, a certain family will ask them to come over tomorrow."

Li Xin nodded and asked, "Well, Uncle An, how has the family been doing in the three months since I left?"

The housekeeper said, "A certain family is about to tell the young master that in the three months since the young master left, some people still don't give up on our workshop, but we have destroyed them all."

Li Xin stood up with a groan, "While I was gone, did thieves attack our workshop on a large scale again?"

The butler replied, "That's not true. They are all small-scale infiltrations to spy on the secrets of our workshop."

Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. How is our family's other situation?" Li Xin thought that the workshop would be moved to the island across the sea with the ship in the spring of next year.

The housekeeper said, "Our four warehouses have been built. The coal from Tianhu Mountain has begun to be produced. The produced coal has been transported to the warehouse, as well as the purchased iron ore, pig iron, grain, farm tools, knives and guns, etc." The weapons have been transported to the warehouse."

Li Xin nodded and said, "Okay, Uncle An, buy some more bricks and tents to store."

The housekeeper looked at Li Xin and said, "Well, in the past three months, our nursing team has increased by 58 people, the cooks have increased by 10 people, the orphans have increased by 32 people, 10 women and 22 men, and the shipwrights have increased by 10 people. The carpenters were increased by 4, the blacksmiths by 6, the sailors by 105, and 40 men were not assigned.”

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Okay, send 12 to the restaurant, 10 to learn how to raise pigeons, five to the carpenter, five to the blacksmith, and eight to the shipwright."

The butler replied, "Okay, so-and-so knows. In the past three months, our five restaurants have made a total profit of million guan. We have gained new gold card members, earning million guan. There are million new silver card members." Four hundred, earning guan, and the seven shops made a total profit of guan."

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Well, Uncle An will order six more ships, two sand ships with a load of shi and four lucky ships with a load of shi."

The housekeeper replied, "Okay, a certain family knows about it. By the way, sir, there are several people in the family who have applied to get married. What do you think, sir?"

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Then let's do it. It will be done in the mansion in the next few days. I have promised my servants a long time ago that I will do it for anyone who wants to get married. It just so happens that the mansion is also celebrating."

The butler replied, "Okay, I'd like to thank the master for the servants first. I'll go prepare for the wedding now. Does the master have anything else to do?"

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Uncle An, has anything happened in Tokyo and Huai'an recently?"

Uncle An replied, "No, nothing happened in either place."

Li Xin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll leave first. Uncle An, don't forget to ask the three new shopkeepers to come to me tomorrow."

Uncle An said, "Yes, sir, don't worry, a certain family will never forget it."

Li Xin was walking in the house and came to the front yard, and then heard the sounds of fighting and cheers. Looking closer, it turned out that it was a competition between the chief and deputy leaders of the nursing team. Lu Junyi and Niu Gao were both highly skilled in martial arts. However, the history books did not compare the two together, so it is difficult to say who is higher and who is lower. However, Looking at today's situation, Lu Junyi was more agile than Niu Gao, and Niu Gao was stronger than Lu Junyi. The two fought for hundreds of rounds, but Lu Junyi won in the end, and the servants were really happy.

Li Xin stepped forward and said to Niu Gao, who was lying motionless on the ground, "Brother Niu, how are you? It was a good fight."

Niu Gao said, "Brother Li, I haven't played so happily in a long time. It's really nice to have Brother Lu accompany me to fight."

Lu Junyi on the side gasped and said, "You old cow is really happy. You are stronger than me. It hurts so much when me hits you."

Li Xin smiled at the two brothers and said, "Both brothers are highly skilled in martial arts. A competition is a competition, so don't hurt your friendship, and don't forget to train."

Lu Junyi replied, "No, we don't know each other if we don't fight. Don't worry, brother, I won't let you do anything wrong."

Niu Gao continued, "That's right, I can't let you do anything wrong."

Li Xin smiled and replied, "The two brothers should rest for now, and I will leave first."

Li Xin walked towards her house. She didn't know what was going on with Liang Xing and Zhao Yun's discussion. Just when she was thinking about it, Liang Xing and Zhao Yun came out.

The two clasped their fists and said, "Sir."

Li Xin said, "You two have become familiar with each other, understood it, and discussed it?"

Liang Xing said, "Well, sir, we have learned to use this kind of numbers, and we also understand the method of transmitting secret messages."

Li Xin nodded and said, "That's good. Just learn how to use it."

Liang Xing continued, "The two of us discussed it, and the rules for the establishment of the spy network are as written by the adults. There is no need to change them for the time being." Li Xin thought to herself that it was of course, these rules were summed up by the blood of countless people in later generations. Yes, of course there won’t be much changes.

Li Xin said, "Well, okay, is there anything else?"

Liang Xing continued, "We plan to place a restaurant and a shop in every city in the enemy's country. The restaurant will be used to gather information, and the shop will be used to deliver news. The new name of the restaurant is Shuixianju."

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "The name is well chosen. It's good to put a restaurant and a shop in each city. It's safer. Have you thought about where you plan to put your first restaurant and shop?"

Liang Xing replied, "We have already thought about this. We plan to place the first restaurant and shop in Nanjing City of Liao Kingdom."

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Well, Nanjing City in the Liao Kingdom was also the former Youzhou City. This is a good decision, so it will be settled in Youzhou City."
