The Third Young Master knew very well what these two jobs were like. He was the one who used them to embarrass the Chen family. He originally thought that the Chen family had solved this problem, but now it seems that it is not the case. If this The work was done by Sheng Si, which meant that the person who solved this matter was Sheng Si, not Chen Ling as he originally thought.

Yang Quan glanced at the third young master, who said, "Tell me carefully how he completed the task." The third young master is now more and more interested in Sheng Si. He believes that Yang Quan must have collected a lot of information about Sheng Si. Sheng Si’s information, that’s why he said this.

Yang Quan responded, and then said: "Yes, after Sheng Si received the task from Chen Ling, he asked the people in his store who were originally from Jiufang to contact the two people from Nan'anfang in Jiufang. A very prestigious person asked them to organize people to do this job, and he got five thousand taels of gold from Chen Ling."

"Five thousand taels? Haha, the Chen family really has the temper to pluck their feathers." When the third young master heard what Yang Quan said, he couldn't help but chuckle, because the amount of gold he gave to the Chen family at that time was not Five thousand taels, but eight thousand taels. Although eight thousand taels of gold is not too much to do this job, it is still enough. However, the Chen family only gave Sheng Si five thousand taels and kept it for himself. Three thousand taels, from this point it can be seen that this Chen family is probably not a person who does big things.

Yang Quan didn't speak. The third young master looked at him and said, "Go on." The third young master wanted to see how Sheng Si used five thousand taels of gold to complete these two tasks, and he did it so well. Quick, so good, something is wrong, he really can't understand it.

Yang Quan responded, and then said: "Yes, after Sheng Si got the money, he immediately found the people from Jiuzhifang who took over the work from him. The young master should also know that the money our father-in-law gave out, In the end, it was impossible to completely fall into the hands of the people at Jiu-layer Fang. The wages for work there were very cheap, but Sheng Si did not do this. He directly told the people there that he was now After taking this job, there are five thousand taels of gold available, four thousand taels of which are used to pay for the work of the people in Jiufangfang, and the remaining one thousand taels are reserved for their up and down management."

The Third Young Master was stunned when he heard what Yang Quan said. Then he glanced at Yang Quan and said, "Did he really do this?" He was really surprised now as to why Sheng Si did this. People like the Third Young Master have always been in a superior position. They know what those below are doing, but in their eyes, it doesn't matter. For example, when it comes to building a city wall, they know how to do it. In fact, it doesn’t cost that much money to hire people for the city wall. He gave the job to the Chen family, and the Chen family distributed the job to the lower levels. In the process, the Chen family will take part of the profits from it, and the people below will also take it. If some of the profits are taken away, there won't be much money left in the hands of the people in the Nine-Level Fang who are actually doing the work.

But in the eyes of Third Young Master, this is nothing special. If you want to do something, you must give your subordinates some benefits. If you don’t give your subordinates benefits, how can they really help you, so Third Young Master He turned a blind eye to such things. He knew very well that he could not do everything by himself, so if the Chen family profited from it, he had no objection. But the 8,000 taels of gold he gave to the Chen family was less than what he originally planned. Normally building a city wall and digging a moat, the amount of gold he gave would be around 15,000 taels of gold. So, It doesn't matter if the Chen family takes away part of it, but now he gives eight thousand taels, which is nearly half less for one person. If the Chen family takes part of it, it doesn't make sense.

It is precisely because of this that when the Third Young Master knew that the Chen family had taken away three thousand taels of gold, he thought that the Chen family were just people who only valued money and could not accomplish anything big. But now when the Third Young Master heard what Yang Quan said, after Sheng Si got the five thousand taels of gold, he didn't withhold it, but directly told those people that the four thousand taels were wages for you, and the rest would be used for it. The Third Young Master is really confused by this approach of managing people.

Yang Quan said in a deep voice: "Yes, Master, Sheng Si really did this. He used four thousand taels to pay those people, and those people in the Nine-Layer Fang were very happy, because this was the first time they had received since they started working. The largest batch of wages ever paid, and the remaining one thousand taels of gold were divided by Sheng Si. Those who supervised the work at the construction site were each paid one hundred taels, and the master craftsmen who guided the work on the public land were each paid fifty taels. Two, and even invited them to a restaurant for a drink, and even booked the teahouse next to the construction site. If the master craftsmen and supervisors go to the teahouse to drink tea, the teahouse will not charge them."

At this point, Yang Quan stopped for a moment, glanced at the Third Young Master, and found that the Third Young Master was deep in thought, but did not let him stop. He continued, "After this plan, those supervisors and master craftsmen , for the people arranged by Sheng Si, he naturally took extra care of them. When the materials came, they were given to them first, and they were all the best materials. In addition, Zhao Hai paid very high wages to the people at Jiuzhifang, so They also worked very hard, so the work could be completed so quickly. According to statistics, not only did Sheng Si not make any money on this job, he also spent some money on it himself."

When the Third Young Master heard what he said, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then said: "Oh? This is really interesting. What does he want to do? He doesn't make money by working, but he still pays for it himself. Doesn't this seem a little wrong?" The Third Young Master really doesn't believe Yang Quan's words. It's not right for someone to work for others and not make any money himself, but to borrow money from others. That's not right.

Yang Quan said: "It should be to get a higher status with the Chen family. After this incident, the Chen family really trusted Sheng Si more, and Sheng Si did this, and there is another benefit, that is, he He gained respect in Nan'anfang, and people in Nan'anfang all thought he was a good employer and were willing to work for him. He gained some prestige in Nan'anfang."

The third young master was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "Hahahaha, good job, this Sheng Si is really good. Is he using this method to build his own power? It seems like he is Much stronger than Chen Ling from the Chen family, is there anything else? Is there any other news?"

Yang Quan nodded, and then said: "Yes, just a month ago, Sheng Si first bought a large amount of daily necessities from Tongdiya Bank, and the quantity was very large. Later, after Chen Ling went to see these daily necessities, they disappeared, and in Sanshan City, there was a large amount of daily necessities in the transaction between the Chen family and the Blood Killing Sect. Among the daily necessities taken away by the Blood Killing Sect, a large part had Qingdu City on them. The signs of the trading houses here, that is to say, the daily necessities traded with the Blood Murder Sect, are the ones that Sheng Si receives."

"Then Sheng Si started to renovate Nan'anfang. I sent someone to inquire about it. Sheng Si wanted to build a huge warehouse in Nan'anfang. He would not give Nan'anfang money for the land to build the warehouse. He will renovate the main street in Nan'anfang, and he will build new houses in Nan'anfang for all the people whose houses he demolished, and if the people in Nan'anfang are willing to rebuild their houses, He could give those people materials for free.”

After listening to Yang Quan's words, the Third Young Master couldn't help but squint his eyes and said: "The ambition is not small. It seems that he wants to control the entire Nan'anfang. What will be the final result?" The Third Young Master's vision is beyond Chen Ling's comparison. He could see Sheng Si's purpose at a glance. It was precisely because he saw Tong Lai that he was more interested in Sheng Si. He really wanted to know what this Sheng Si could do. Now in the eyes of the Third Young Master, Sheng Si is more attractive to him than Chen Ling.

Yang Quan said in a deep voice: "Yes, Young Master, he succeeded. The warehouse in Nan'anfang has been completed. It is a huge warehouse that can hold two million stones of grain. The people from Nan'anfang will also be in the warehouse." At the same time, all the houses in Nan'anfang have been rebuilt, all the garbage in Nan'anfang has been cleared away, and their drainage ditches have been dug again. Now when going to Nan'anfang, no one will think, It was a nine-story square. Some people believed that it was a seven-story square. The people in Nan'an Square took the initiative to set up a monument for Sheng Si outside Nan'an Square. Sheng Si's achievements were written on it. Later, Sheng Si's list was Please ask Chen Ling to come forward and ask a steward of our Yang family to come forward and replace the temple blessings in the temple in Nan'anfang with the two people from Nan'anfang who worked with him at the beginning. It can be said that Sheng Si is now almost Officially, he controls Nan'anfang, and with his prestige in Nan'anfang, I believe that if he goes to Nan'anfang and shouts a word, the people there will immediately listen to him, and the price he pays , it was just some building materials to build a warehouse for him, but he didn't pay for it. Moreover, because he bought building materials in large quantities, those firms gave him a discount. He spent less money than buying land in other places. It cost much less to build a warehouse, but now he not only used less money to get a warehouse of the same size, but also gained the loyalty of the entire Nan'anfang."

The Third Young Master had a look of admiration on his face and said in a deep voice: "What a good means. This Sheng Si is really a good means. Compared with him, that Chen Ling is really like an idiot. If such a person can be used by me, then It's just fine, is there anything else?" The third young master really admires Sheng Si so much now, he thinks Sheng Si is much better than Chen Ling.

Yang Quan nodded, and then said: "There is one more thing. We have also received some news before. We know that Sanjiang City is transporting grain to Qingdu City, and the subordinates also arranged people to give Chen Ling hints, just to We need to ask him to hand over the grain to us, because the ships transporting grain are all Chen family's ships. Although the guards on the ship are the officers and soldiers of Sanshan City, these grains must be related to the Chen family, but the previous few times Chen Ling pretended not to understand. Just yesterday, Sheng Si went to see Chen Ling, and today Chen Ling came to the young master." At this point, Yang Quan stood there with his head bowed and stopped talking, but The third young master knew the meaning of his words very clearly.
