The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Chapter 50 Consideration

The Lantern Festival has just passed, the lanterns in the streets and alleys of Gongzhou Fucheng have not been taken off, and the flower sheds have not been dismantled. The boys in front of the shops are lazily cleaning the garbage abandoned by tourists in front of the shops.

The vendors shouted weakly, and people seemed to have not recovered from the festive atmosphere.

Today is the first day after the new year when the government office opens. The magistrates of the counties under the jurisdiction of the state capital and the officers of each department gathered in the government office. After exchanging a few words, Chen Tang began to lecture, which was nothing more than loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

Cliché nonsense like protecting the country and the people, and then getting down to business.

The tasks assigned by superiors this year are heavy, and all taxes must be implemented in a practical manner. All counties must increase their efforts, mobilize their superiors and subordinates to come up with ideas, add new taxes, reform original rates, and develop

It is an economic hotspot, tap the charging potential, ensure that taxes for the first half of the year are completed and sent to Beijing on time, and the state government's fiscal revenue exceeds half.

"Sir, a large amount of materials have been transported into Dazhaozhuang in the past few days. Can we set up a tax card?" As soon as Chen Tang finished speaking, Wu Jinxian, the newly appointed magistrate of Xiangyi County, stood up and said.

"If your head was kicked by a donkey, you should let the door jam you!" Unexpectedly, as soon as they finished speaking, Zhizhou Chentang, who had been so elegant just now, changed his face and cursed loudly, which shocked the whole place into silence. They didn't want to think about the previous few days.

The eldest son of Tian Cai Xiang's family took advantage of the prince and borrowed 100,000 yuan of atonement money from him, but he would have to wait until the year of the monkey to pay it back. Chen Tang thought about it and thought that the money he got had either gone to the prime minister's house or had arrived.

Prince's Mansion, can you not be angry when you hear that he provoked Zhao Tong again?

"Sir, I'm going to lower my rank." Wu Jin was confused and didn't know where he went wrong.

"Do you know whose territory Dazhaozhuang belongs to?" Chen Tang walked over and asked.

"It's a subordinate territory and it's under my jurisdiction!" Wu Jinxian answered very quickly. He opened his mouth and cursed Chen Tang in his heart, "You are a nine hundred. You have to ask such a simple question in the lobby. You think I am also a nine hundred."

!' (Nine hundred in the Song Dynasty = two hundred and five in modern times, I can’t find the reason for this)

"Hey, Wuzhi County is right! Do you know that a group of strong men have appeared recently?" Chen Tang said with a smile, but it sounded like a sneer no matter what.

"I don't know, I will send people to exterminate them as soon as I get back!" Wu Jinxian straightened his back and replied, "Gongzhou Prefecture defends the capital with 20,000 soldiers, and there are still strong men. How did you become a prefect? ​​You still have the fucking nerve to ask me."

.

"Eradicate?!" Chen Tang was furious this time. If he wiped out this group of strongmen, I'm afraid all the nine tribes here would be wiped out.

"Xiangyi County, you are so brave! You want to die, don't hurt us all!" Before Chen Tang could say anything, Tong Xuan became anxious, jumped up and cursed.

"Xiangyi County, please sit down quickly and stop talking." A magistrate who had a fairly good relationship with him next to him said, pulling on his lapel.

"Brother Hu, what's going on?" Wu Jinxian was confused now. The two officials in the state were scolding him, as if he had robbed their little wives and jumped into the well with their children in their arms.

"Brother Wu, your information is too ill-informed. Da Zhaozhuang, Xiao Zhaozhuang and the two surrounding villages are all the properties of the second prince, Prince Yan. He has been recuperating there for a year. The prince is eccentric and does things in a weird way.

Often contrary to common sense, I learned how to rob while watching the opera during the Chinese New Year. I just robbed the imperial envoy who was delivering the decree. It took me this amount to put him back. Academician Cai's head almost moved. Everyone couldn't hide, so why don't you?

Go mess with him!"

"Thank you, Brother Wu, for your advice!" Wu Jinxian came down in a cold sweat after hearing this, bowed and ran out, "I hope it's still too late, don't let them hit the prince, the Jade Emperor, Buddha bless you," he muttered as he ran, to himself

After spending thousands of dollars and staying at home for several years, I finally found a job. I was just looking for a job when I met this unlucky kid. Everyone in the hall seemed to understand his mood. Everyone sighed and shook their heads.

, forgave him for his rudeness.

The next day, the Gongzhou prefect, who was incompatible with each other, surprisingly jointly issued an internal secret document, requiring officials and law enforcement personnel in all counties, towns, and townships to stay away from Dazhaozhuang within a ten-mile radius unless necessary.

If you enter, you must strictly pay attention to your words and deeds, behave appropriately, and use civilized language. Especially children under ten years old must be respectful and take precautions.

At the same time, a rectification team with the magistrate as the team leader and Tongpan as the deputy team leader was immediately established and stationed in Xiangyi County. Taking the opportunity of the magistrate in Xiangyi County almost causing a major political liability accident, a vigorous rectification team was launched to "set an example and catch typical examples"

Exercise and pay close attention to civilized law enforcement!

After the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, the Zhao Mansion began to fully mobilize, establish a leadership team, assign staff, and formulate plans. The general commander of the project is Zheng Fu, the chief manager, who is responsible for all corresponding matters on the construction site; Zheng Lu, the second manager, is responsible for purchasing the construction site.

The required materials and tools were brought in; the third steward, Zheng Shou, was in charge of the general affairs and was responsible for the logistics supply and ensuring that the young men had good food and drink. Most of the stewards from each room and even the handymen who knew a little about civil engineering were sent down, and the government

Only a few people are left to keep the operation going.

All the manpower and material resources in the mansion were invested in the project, and everything was kept simple during the Shangyuan Festival. The water conservancy technicians invited from Yingtian Mansion on the 16th were also in place, and the survey and design began. The stones, wood, and tools ordered years ago were all delivered one after another.

.Zhao Mansion is also pleased that as long as the requirements are met, all transactions are in cash and there are no arrears.

On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the young men recruited from each village entered the construction site. All those who signed up arrived, and no one took the money and ran away. The stewards divided the young men into several teams according to their specialties according to the pre-planned plan, and designated the most prestigious among them.

A person acts as the foreman and then allocates tasks. The production contract responsibility system is still adopted. Those who complete the work are rewarded. Although there is no deduction of wages for the work that is not completed, you still have to work overtime to make up for it.

Although it was past the beginning of spring, it was still the dry season. The river water was very shallow and there was still ice in some places, which was convenient for construction. However, time was tight. They had to build the dam before the first spring rain, otherwise everything would be over.

We won't be able to restart work until after autumn.

Everyone has a heart to repay kindness. The host paid the wages in advance to help them tide over the difficulties last year. The most direct beneficiaries of building embankments and canals were themselves. Besides, they had two full meals a day, which were full of meat and fish.

, which is better than the food at home, so people can complete tasks according to plan regardless of effort.

After the project started as scheduled, Zhao Tong became the most leisurely person in the house. He was a cautious person and a liberal person. Since he didn't understand it, he left it to people who knew how to do it. The ancients could build the Grand Canal.

The completion of Dujiangyan shows that water conservancy technology has matured, and there is no problem in building a small dam. If you make blind decisions based on your own knowledge, it will be counterproductive.

What Zhao Tong has to do now is to listen to the report, check the progress of the project, and then prepare money to meet these expenses. He found that there are many similarities between the business models of the Song Dynasty and modern society. Take the stone used for the project

For example, because this place is located in a plain, there is no local stone production, and a large amount of stone is needed to build dams and roads. Everything needs to be purchased from outside and then shipped in. It can be said that the workload is huge, but he saw that Zheng Lu just went there

Ying Tianfu solved this seemingly difficult problem.

It turns out that merchants in the Song Dynasty established various chambers of commerce based on the characteristics of their industries. Zheng Lu only needed to find a chamber of commerce that specialized in selling stones, agree on the specifications and varieties of the stones needed, negotiate the price, and pay a deposit on the delivery location and date.

The rest of the work will be done by the merchant, who will contact the source of goods and transportation and deliver it to you on time. Just like various contractors now, they provide one-stop service and are absolutely professional.

"Then can my own winery also change the way of cooperation?" Zhao Tong couldn't sit still thinking about it, and walked around the room twice and said to himself.

He actually had a purpose in sending the signal to his grandpa to make soju. First, no one in his house was proficient in wine-making and fermentation technology, which is the first step to making good wine; second, wine-making was strictly controlled in all dynasties.

, the Song Dynasty was no exception. Wine was sold by the government. If he cooperated with his grandfather, this would not be a problem, but his initial idea was to run the winery himself and just give up part of the wine sales rights. His grandfather was one of his

Agent.

Now Zhao Tong suddenly felt that he should change something. Making wine is one thing, selling it is another. The government itself is short of people, especially this kind of sales talent. Grandpa's family has been making and selling wine for many years.

With experience and strength, as well as a mature sales network, if you partner with him, you will soon be able to make a profit. You can also use this platform to cultivate your own management talents and build your own team.

"Yes, just do it!" I didn't come to this world to be a slave to money. Money is just a tool for me. There are still many important things that I need to do by myself. Why don't I use such a beneficial method? Zhao Tong decided

Got an idea.

"Why hasn't grandpa sent someone here? They don't believe it, or they think it's unprofitable!" Zhao Tong suddenly found that he had decided to give people shares, but the real owner didn't come. Could it be that he had a hot face but a cold butt?

On board, Zhao Tong was confused.

"Impossible!" If shochu is as rare as Zheng Quan said, grandpa will not let go of this opportunity. His status as a relative means that he cannot hold real power. He will be an idle prince for the rest of his life. All he can do is use his status.

Do some business and earn a share of the family fortune for future generations.

Just when Zhao Tong was worrying about gains and losses in the room and thinking wildly, Jian Xi ran in quickly with his clothes in hand and reported: "Your Majesty, the two uncles have come to send congratulatory gifts!"

"Oh!" Zhao Tong's face immediately turned gloomy. He was really thinking of whatever he wanted. Just now he was worried that they wouldn't come, but now two of them came.
