Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

It was the first time in the history of bilateral negotiations that the civil servants agreed to the important land, but they couldn't come up with a charter for a while. The question was who would go first.The outcome of the border has not yet been decided, so let's put this matter aside for the time being.Immediately afterwards, the emperor all mentioned the matter of the Household Department. The Minister of the Household Department has not yet decided on a candidate. Although there is not only one minister in the Household Department, because of what this minister did, the entire Household Department will be affected. The Ministry of Household Affairs, which was already in charge of the national treasury, was not pleasing to the eye, but at this time it didn't make trouble, because everyone was still in danger. If it wasn't for this, they would have stepped on it a long time ago, but they haven't stepped on it now, but they still do it from time to time Put a blindfold on Hubu.

What happened to the imperial court in the capital had nothing to do with Wang Xiujin. At this moment, the workshop in Wu County had already started trial production.The peanut oil workshop not only produces peanut oil, but also produces wooden barrels.Among the wounded soldiers who came over were several skilled carpenters, and they led people to produce wooden barrels for peanut oil.When the first barrel of peanut oil came off the production line, Zhao Si took the peanut oil and workers back to Beijing. The purpose of returning to the capital was to seek fame.

The oil barrel is not small, and the price of each barrel of oil is set very high by Wang Xiujin.Zhao Si has also lived in Wu County for a long time, knowing the living standards of ordinary people, I am afraid that such a large barrel of oil will not be bought by ordinary people, but it can be eaten for a long time with a small pot , It is also easy to sell.Take Wang Xiujin’s family as an example. They filled small porcelain vases, including the master and servants, enough for them to use for seven to eight days, except for the morning. Their family had three meals a day, while ordinary people’s families had three meals a day. Two meals can be used for at least ten days, so it doesn't feel expensive.Zhao Si and Wang Xiujin calculated that the price of selling a barrel loosely is much more expensive than selling a whole barrel. Whether to buy loose or a whole barrel depends on what the people think.

The workshop is still in a state of lack of people. There are more than 70 people working now, which is not a small number among various workshops, but it is really not enough. The current workshop is not mechanized, and machinery cannot replace labor. For the workshop to work in two shifts, more workers are needed.The shortage of people is the most important thing that the workshop needs to solve now. As for the name of the brand, let the emperor have a headache!

The battle at the border has not stopped, especially since the emperor has given a new order that they must be hurt, and some people must be captured alive. It would be even better if the generals can be captured. back.General Li discussed with several deputies several times to study how to accomplish the emperor's will with the least loss.At the same time, there is also the issue of the placement of wounded soldiers mentioned again in the imperial decree.

"My daughter-in-law granted Shengen a workshop to recruit disabled soldiers, but the workshop is so big, and there are only so many people that can be accommodated." General Li's tone was full of pity, but let Anyone who listened could feel that he was actually praising his daughter-in-law for her ability, and even the emperor entrusted her with a heavy responsibility.

"General, this matter has been said several times." Being in the camp of the Li family, how could he not know about this matter, among them there were several wounded soldiers who were beaten by others, and all of them were obviously tough guys After returning home, he turned into a weathered old man. When he heard about it, don't mention how sad it was. They were all soldiers under his command. They were all trained by him. The emperor issued an order to improve the status of soldiers, and they received the order with tears on their faces. They know that there is still a long way to go to change the situation of the wounded after returning home, but with the imperial decree and laws, the life of the wounded will gradually change.

"This general's daughter-in-law is capable, so I don't want to talk about it a few times." General Li couldn't hide his complacency, but then he sighed, "If you know generals from other places, please tell me what happened, if you can let go , my daughter-in-law will not treat them badly, don't think my daughter-in-law is unreliable because she is young, he really wants to do something for the soldiers."

Li Su, who had been sitting in the tent without speaking, had already flown to Wu county with a thoughtful mind. He didn't know how Wang Xiujin was doing now. The workshop should be finished!During the Chinese New Year, Li Sushan wanted to go to Wu County when his father who came back from Wu county brought up Tim Ding’s dizziness.

Wang Xiujin sneezed several times in a row and rubbed his nose. Sneezing in summer can rule out the suspicion of a cold.I walked around the workshop and sat in the cafeteria to see if the food met my requirements.The cook in the cafeteria was not dug from the restaurant, nor was it a recruited woman, but a recruited soldier who lost one ear on the battlefield. Normally, such a person should not suffer much after returning to his hometown. , but this man insisted on walking from his hometown to Wu County. A man who knew him asked him about his family.Wang Xiujin sighed, he couldn't understand the thinking of the ancients, and the stubbornness in the bones of the ancients also made people feel speechless.

In addition to one chef, there are five assistant cooks and ten assistants, who are also wounded soldiers. They don't dislike the work in the kitchen at all, and they do it very seriously.After entering the cafeteria, you can find that it is very clean, and the smiles on the faces of more than a dozen people are particularly enthusiastic. After Wang Xiujin took a look at the lunch dishes, he didn't plan to go back to the shop to eat.Vegetable rice is nothing special, morning porridge, eggs, steamed buns, pickles.At noon and in the evening three vegetarian meals and one meat meal.Supper is mainly soup.There is no special taste in the big pot rice, but one good thing is to keep you full.Some people say that working in a workshop is like celebrating Chinese New Year every day, and this is absolutely true.

The workers who came to eat at noon saw that Wang Xiujin also brought a wooden tray, and prepared the meal, which was the same as what they ate. All of them had friendly smiles on their faces, and the bold ones sat around Wang Xiujin and ate with him. .Wang Xiujin will also ask at this moment whether the food is good, whether it suits his appetite, whether he is tired from working, whether the wages are paid on time, and so on.The workers would answer all the questions, and they felt motivated because of Wang Xiujin's concern. They didn't treat each other like a child at all.

There are three people in the counting room of the workshop, and there will be several statistics for each process. The statistics are selected from the wounded soldiers who can read and write, and the counting room is introduced by the shopkeeper and shopkeeper Wu, and another is sent by the grocery store in the capital. Yes, I didn't say much to this Wang Xiujin, the workshop was built with the money of the emperor, and he felt that it would be easier to send an accountant.

When it comes to wages, the workers are all very excited. It's not that they are paid less, but that they feel that they are paid too much.Listening to what the workers said, Wang Xiujin felt very complicated. He repeatedly stated that the wages paid were very reasonable, but the workers still didn't believe it, and Wang Xiujin was also helpless.

As the trial production of the workshop is coming to an end, a lot of peanut oil barrels have been piled up in the warehouse.Wang Xiujin was a little anxious, did Zhao Si not arrive in the capital yet, or was the edict bestowed by the Holy Majesty already on the way?It's just a name, it shouldn't be too difficult for the ancients!I waited and waited, but I didn't wait for the imperial decree or letter.Wang Xiujin was a little anxious. Although he didn't pay for the construction of the workshop, and he didn't lose money after waiting for so many days, but if he sold the oil earlier and got his money back one day earlier, he could get his salary earlier.

Early this morning, Wang Xiujin went into the city as usual, planning to go to the workshop first, and then go to the grain store. The shopkeeper in Xiangcheng has already found the shopkeeper's buddy, and now he is negotiating prices with several peddlers. The main shop is still crab rice.This year, apart from the ones sent to the imperial palace, the rest of the crab rice is going to be put in Xiangcheng, in order to quickly help Xiangcheng's grain shops to spread the market locally.

Just after passing the city gate, the carriage he was riding in was stopped by someone. Wang Xiujin felt it was strange, he opened the curtain and took a look outside, and saw a familiar person, "Fourth Brother Zhao is here? Or should I send him over?" The person who stopped the car was Zhao Si's personal entourage, and he brought this person with him when he came to Wu County last time.

"Master, please ask Mr. Wang to go over and have a talk." Wang Xiujin raised his eyebrows respectfully following his body, wondering why Zhao Si had put on a show when he came.But he didn't think much about it, he drove the servant and followed the entourage, and arrived at the residence where Zhao Si stayed in Wu County after a while.

After tidying up his clothes, he walked in with his relatives. After entering the door, Wang Xiujin felt that something was wrong. Three steps, one post, two steps, one guard, he couldn't help but feel aroused. He had an answer that he thought was impossible. When he entered the inner house , Seeing the father-in-law he saw in the court hall, Wang Xiujin put his heart down instead, straightened his clothes again, and looked at the father-in-law at the door.With a smile on his face, the father-in-law motioned for Wang Xiujin to go in.

Stepping up and entering the door, I saw a person sitting in the middle, exuding majesty.Wang Xiujin clenched his fists, calmed his mind, put aside his doubts, and bowed respectfully to the person sitting upright, "Respectfully, I wish you peace."

"Get up!" the Son of Heaven yelled, and waved to Wang Xiujin, "I am going to visit in micro-service, and the complicated etiquette should be avoided."

Wang Xiujin secretly poked the villain in his heart, why didn't he say that he was exempt from courtesy earlier.On the face, he bowed his head submissively. "I don't know that the emperor is here in person, but I ask the emperor to forgive me for failing to welcome me far away."

The emperor laughed a few times before saying. "Only the fourth child knows about my trip, why are you guilty?"

Thinking about the guards in the yard, Wang Xiujin secretly thought that he would be a ghost if he believed your words. Only the fourth prince knew and brought so many people out. If the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knew, it would be fine. The person who came with him might be Wu County I can't fit it all.Wang Xiujin only dared to think about it in his heart, with a look of sincerity and fear on his face.

"I drew up a few names, let's see what you think." The emperor doesn't care about Wang Xiujin's attitude, the more he looks at Wang Xiujin now, the more satisfied he is, the more he is like this, the more he feels that the child has been wronged by being assigned to the Li family, but Thinking about it, apart from the Li family, he really has no credible candidates.

Looking at the names on the paper, Wang Xiujin twitched his lips. These names are too lofty and not down-to-earth at all. People probably won’t even ask. Now Wang Xiujin regrets throwing this matter to the emperor. This is obviously in turn pitting oneself. "Your Majesty, you have a good name." After much deliberation, Wang Xiujin decided to say it straight. He doesn't have the two brushes of his father, and he can convince people with his mouth. "These names are more suitable for brands that take the high-end route. The peanut oil we produce is sold to people all over the world. It should be a more down-to-earth name, such as Fulinmen. High acceptance."

"Fulinmen, what a blessing, I'll use this." The emperor clapped his palms, and he didn't feel angry at all because he had a few names that were not used, and his face was full of joy.

Wang Xiujin opened his mouth, full of bitterness, he was just giving an example instead of using this name! "Your Majesty, no."

"It's a nice name, why not?"

"Caomin originally planned to package and sell their own crab field rice under this name." Wang Xiujin gritted his teeth and made up a non-existent reason.Sitting beside him, Zhao Si raised his eyebrows, who had been silent all the time. Why hadn't he heard that Wang Xiujin had mentioned selling rice packages.

"A gentleman should not take away people's love," the emperor paused, Wang Xiujin thought there was hope to change his name, but the emperor continued, "But I am the emperor, so I use Fulinmen."

The villain in Wang Xiujin's heart was poked and poked again and again, with a look of bitterness that he couldn't tell, he had to be, and he could only have fun thinking that Fulinmen came out thousands of years in advance, so he didn't know if Arowana would Cried down in the bathroom.

"Look, look, this face is unwilling." The emperor pointed to Wang Xiujin's expression, "I can really steal your things, how about Tai'an, I hope the country is safe and the people are safe."

"Father, it is straightforward to know how the harvest will be."

"..." Is naming a child's play?Wang Xiujin, who was sweating all over his forehead, was suffering in his heart. What did the emperor mean? His heart was in his throat.

"Harvest is direct, but before Xiujin also said that it is for the people of the world, not only ordinary people, but also big families, restaurants, officials, and even the palace. If someone asks whether Tai'an is better, or good harvest?"

"Tai'an." Zhao Si agreed with his father's words, and the brand of peanut oil was settled in this process.Wang Xiujin also breathed a sigh of relief. As for the crab rice card, Wang Xiujin said that he was just planning, and the specific implementation would have to wait!

"Okay, now that the name is decided, sell it quickly, and I'm still waiting for a dividend." The emperor dropped his hand, and the matter was no longer mentioned. Wang Xiujin wanted to leave, but was abruptly blocked by the emperor's next words live. "I'm going to Wang Village, to see the crabs in the rice fields, and to meet the old prime minister by the way."

"..." Wang Xiujin felt that the emperor wanted to see his father because he really came to Wu County. He was surprised and wondered why the emperor wanted to see his father.No matter how surprised and curious he was, he had to lead people to Wang Village. What the emperor said was a joke and an imperial decree.

Send a servant back to the village first, and tell his father that there is a nobleman visiting, hoping that his father can stop the school and go home, and don't let the emperor wait and annoy the emperor.The emperor didn't bring many people with him to Wangcun, there were eight guards in ordinary clothes, followed by two father-in-laws, and of course Zhao Si was indispensable.Wang Xiujin sat on the carriage anxiously, praying in his heart that the villagers would not charge up and bump into the emperor.
