When Lu Ning arrived at Yuanyangchi Reservoir, he found that many people had gathered here.
Members of the militia groups work here to build roads.
From time to time, a truck would drive by with cargo.
"Captain!"
"Captain!"
When they saw Lu Ning, they quickly stopped what they were doing and saluted Lu Ning.
Lu Ning nodded to them.
As we walked forward and climbed up the hillside, we soon saw several trucks parked in the open space next to the reservoir.
Members of the vigilante group unloaded steel bars and other construction materials from vehicles.
In addition to steel bars, piles of stones and cement were dumped around.
The cement is covered with huge waterproof plastic.
"Brother Ning, you are finally here. Look, we are doing well."
When An Yanguang saw Lu Ning arriving, he immediately walked up to him with five college students.
If Lu Ning had come a little later, they would have already started construction.
"Well enough."
Lu Ning nodded.
In his heart, he was quite satisfied with the work of several people.
The five college students next to him were all looking at Lu Ning in front of them.
Especially the two female college students had different looks in their eyes.
He is indeed handsome.
Mr. An did not exaggerate.
An Yanguang said to the five people: "This is our captain. Don't call our captain the same way you call me. If you call us sir, you should call us captain Lu."
"Brother Ning, these five are the college students you asked me to find. Let me introduce them to you. The one with the glasses is called Wang Shudong."
"Hello, Captain Lu." Wang Shudong reached out his hand and shook Lu Ning's hand.
"Hello." Lu Ning also nodded towards him.
"This is Shi Zhiguang."
"Hello, Commander Lu."
"His name is Cheng Xianzhi."
"These two female college students, her name is Sang Lingfang and her name is Hong Meiling."
"Hello."
Lu Ning shook hands with the five college students.
"Have you all seen those design drawings? Do you have any questions to ask?" Lu Ning asked, looking at several people.
In order for others to understand his design, he is as detailed as possible.
But I am still worried that a few people will encounter difficulties during the construction process.
Several people shook their heads.
"Captain Lu, your design drawings are very simple and clear."
"If there is no shortage of manpower and material resources, it can be completed within half a year." Wang Shudong said to Lu Ning.
When they knew that the design drawing was from Lu Ning, they all admired Lu Ning in their hearts.
Design drawings like this are not something ordinary people can come up with.
It is enough to tell that the Commander Lu in front of him is not a idiot, but a real talent.
Lu Ning said: "In addition to the power station, I will also trouble you to be responsible for the construction and operation of electricity in the future. This power station mainly serves several surrounding villages and towns."
Wang Shudong replied: "It will take almost a year."
"It's okay. Just take your time. If you have anything to do, ask Yan Guang."
"OK."
After several college students went to do their business, An Yanguang and Lu Ning walked aside and started chatting privately.
"Brother Ning, I paid 15 yuan per person per month for these five college students according to your instructions. Originally, I planned to pay 10 yuan, but it is difficult to hire college students for 10 yuan. These college students are the ones I have been working with since.
They were invited from Daxing City, and their family is not an ordinary person.
It’s also similar to my family. My parents are not in business, but at least they are squires in the county or town.”
"Well, it's okay. Fifteen dollars is not much."
"Brother Ning, the power generation equipment has been purchased and is on its way. However, the machine is very expensive, and the manufacturer has to pay a small amount of the money in advance before it can be shipped. I paid the money in advance."
"Oh, how much did the equipment cost in total?"
An Yanguang replied: "The equipment cost a total of 90,000 yuan, including freight, and I paid 10,000 yuan in advance."
"The materials purchased these days also cost 10,000 yuan. Of these 10,000 yuan, I paid 5,000 yuan in advance."
"A total of one hundred thousand oceans have been spent."
When he said this, An Yanguang also felt a little distressed.
The generator equipment is also too expensive.
He was worried about whether Lu Ning would have the money to pay.
"Okay, I understand. You should watch over here first. I will have someone give you the fifteen thousand oceans you paid in advance in the evening."
"You've worked hard these days." Lu Ning patted An Yanguang's shoulder.
"It's not hard, it's not hard." An Yanguang said with a smile.
He was happy to be recognized by Lu Ning.
After returning to the house, before Lu Ning could call out, the mayor had already come running.
He also held an exquisite wooden box in his hand.
"Mr. Lu, you really made it easy for me to wait."
These days, the mayor has been busy raising funds for Lu Ning.
When he finally finished it, he found that Lu Ning was missing.
It took so many days to wait.
Lu Ning explained: "Something happened recently."
The mayor didn't care either. In his eyes, it was normal for a big shot like Lu Ning to be busy.
He handed the wooden box to Lu Ning and said happily: "Mr. Lu, I have done everything for you. Here is the list. At the bottom are the collected banknotes. They are all here."
"A total of more than 300,000 yuan was raised!"
He did this, and he is quite proud of it.
In order to get so much money, he went to almost every place he could in the county.
Lu Ning picked up the paper and looked at it. Who was written on it and how much they paid.
There are a lot of people, and the money paid starts from at least one thousand yuan.
"I won't let them join without a thousand dollars. That's too little, don't you think so, Mr. Lu?"
"Yeah." Lu Ning nodded.
Quite satisfied.
At least 1,000 yuan, usually 5,000 yuan.
Some of them are worth ten thousand oceans.
There are even tens of thousands more.
A total of 332,500 oceans.
"Very good, more than I expected." Lu Ning praised.
Being able to raise so much money directly saved him a lot of expenses.
It seems that in this world, those who have no money really have no money.
But those who are rich are also really rich.
The gap between rich and poor is now extremely polarized.
It can be seen from these investments that every one of the more than thirty people on the list is probably a landlord class.
Landlords have been doing business for so long and still have some money left.
Moreover, these people are as sensitive as flies to making money.
If you see a place where you can make money, you will go there.
But this can be regarded as mutual benefit. For Lu Ning now, these people are help.
"According to what was discussed before, 10,000 will be a 1% profit. In a few days, I will order someone to hand over the contract to you, and you will distribute it to them."
"As for this list, Mayor Huang, could you please copy more of it for me, and then go to every village and town and publish it."
The name of the mayor in front of him was Huang Zhengquan. He saw that on the list, there were several people named Huang from the other family's family, and they still occupied the majority.
It seems that Huang Zhengquan has great confidence in Lu Ning.
I took a big share.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Huang Zhengquan smiled a little when he heard that Lu Ning's dividend distribution had not changed.
He took the paper and left in a hurry.
Lu Ning is quite satisfied with Huang Zhengquan's investment and work efficiency.
Everyone has a love for money, but the benefits that the other party obtains through normal channels and keeps running for it are incomparable to ordinary people.
It's afternoon.
Xu Guoyong and An Yanguang are here again.
"Captain, I have taken care of the school in the county for you. You can send Ah Hua to school tomorrow. The tuition is not expensive. It costs three yuan a year. If you want accommodation, you will get another yuan. I am thinking about these four yuan.
It doesn’t matter how much money you have, just pay it first.”
"This is just a small amount of money. Compared with the money you rewarded us, it is not worth mentioning. You don't have to pay me back." After Xu Guoyong finished speaking, he smiled sarcastically.
He sincerely wanted to do something for Lu Ning.
He really didn't dare ask Lu Ning for these pieces of ocean.
"Yeah. Good job."
"But the reward money is reward money, and the money for work is money for work. They cannot be confused. I will order someone to give you four oceans later."
Lu Ning educated Xu Guoyong.
When Xu Guoyong heard Lu Ning's words, he responded loudly without being pretentious: "Yes."
After finishing the matter, An Yanguang said next to him: "Brother Ning, you asked me to investigate the bandits nearby. There has been some progress. This is what I have investigated in the past few days. Take a look."
With that said, An Yanguang handed Lu Ning some pieces of paper with the distribution of bandits written on them.
Written on the paper was some information about nearby bandits.
Not much information.
There is only one bandit den that is clear, but there are two others that are not clear yet.
After all, there were originally Yinshan bandits in Xingtai County, and then the Baoan bandits came later. Naturally, other bandits would no longer seek trouble and gather in the same county.
There are too many monks and too little meat, so they won't do it.
The only clear bandit den is in Xutong County next door.
There are about two hundred people in total, and they are also hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, and occasionally come out to collect offerings from nearby villages and towns.
There are also two unclear bandit dens, both of which are located next to Xingtai County. There are only some clues, but the locations have not been investigated clearly.
There are more bandits in other provinces. An Yanguang only wrote their names, but he didn't even know the specific locations.
Lu Ning didn't blame him either.
If you don't leave the province or city, it's really difficult to investigate.
"If you continue to follow up on these two bandit dens, you must find out exactly where the other bandit's den is. If it's difficult to find, you can ask the local guards under the banner of jointly suppressing bandits. I guess they won't refuse."
"Yes! Brother Ning, you are still smart."
When An Yan heard Lu Ning's suggestion, his hut suddenly opened up.
He had no experience in this area before, so he just wanted to let his men investigate directly, without considering the security aspect.
He was even deeply afraid of being suspected by the guards.
Lu Ning's reminder made him realize that he could cooperate with the guards.
Then, Lu Ning made arrangements for taxes and tidying up the store.
Several people chatted until the evening and then dispersed.
----------
Lu Ning did not return to Earth tonight.
"Master, what would you like to eat tonight?" the rough lady came over and asked.
"Just make six or seven dishes."
Six or seven dishes were served, not because Lu Ning was extravagant, but because there were so many people in the courtyard.
If he doesn't eat, the kids don't have to eat either. Only when Lu Ning is around will they add vegetables.
Usually when Lu Ning is not around, they all eat very frugally.
They are servants, that's where they stand.
When Lu Ning is here, Lu Ning and Ahua usually eat first. After he finishes eating, the food will be divided into two parts, one part for Old Man Liu and Zhang Hengsheng to eat, and the other part for the four maids.
After they finished eating, it was the turn of some rough ladies and men to eat.
Don't think it's leftovers. Lu Ning doesn't eat much. He only eats one or two bites of each of the six or seven dishes.
The little girls didn't eat much, only Old Man Liu and Zhang Hengsheng ate more, but they still had most of the food left, and all of them were top-quality dishes, much better than the food of the servants.
In the Lu Family Courtyard, the hierarchy is very clear.
The leader is Lu Ning, he is the god of everyone.
Further down is Ah Hua, the eldest lady of the Lu family.
Followed by Old Man Liu, Zhang Hengsheng and four little maids.
Every time Lu Ning eats here, it is just an extra meal for them.
They are all very happy.
Compared with the previous life, it is like a day and a day.
night.
While sleeping.
Lu Ning did not go back to his room, but walked into the room of one of the maids.
