What these two jobs are like, the Third Young Master is very clear about. They were brought out by him to embarrass the Chen family. Originally, he thought that the Chen family had solved this problem, but now it seems that it is not the case. If
This work was completed 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 also 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. Young Master should also know that the money our father 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 accepting 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. Like the Third Young Master and the others.
People who are in power have always been in power. They know what those below are doing, but in their opinion, it doesn’t matter. For example, when it comes to building a city wall, they know that hiring people to build a city wall actually costs a lot of money.
Since he didn't have that much money, he gave the job to the Chen family, and the Chen family would distribute the job to lower levels. In the process, the Chen family would take part of the benefits from it, and the people below would also take part of the benefits.
The people in Jiuzhifang who are actually doing the work don’t have much money left.
But in the eyes of the Third Young Master, this is not a big deal. 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, plus digging a moat, the amount of gold he gave was about 15,000 taels of gold, so
It doesn't matter if the Chen family takes away part of it, but now what he gives is 8,000 taels, which is nearly half less for each one. 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 guys who only care about money and cannot 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. Instead, he directly told those people that the four thousand taels were wages for you, and the rest would be used to manage people. This approach was really
This makes the third young master a little confused.
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 most 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. The people who supervised the work at the construction site were each worth one hundred taels, and the master craftsmen who were supervising the work on the public land were each worth 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, so he continued: "After this plan, those supervisors and master craftsmen
, for the people arranged by Sheng Si, he naturally takes extra care. When the materials come, they are given to them first, and they are all the best materials. In addition, Zhao Hai pays very high wages to the people in Jiuzhifang, so
They 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 any money by working, but he still makes money 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. 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 Killer Sect. Among the daily necessities taken away by the Blood Killer 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 received."
"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 and the land for the warehouse. He would not give Nan'anfang money, but would
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 can provide materials to those people for free."
After hearing 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. When going to Nan'anfang now, no one will think that...
It was a nine-story square. Some people believed that it was a seven-story square. People from 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, he believes that if he goes to Nan'anfang and shouts a word, the people there will listen to him immediately, and the price he has paid
, it was just some building materials to build a warehouse for him, but he did not pay for it, and because he bought building materials in large quantities, those firms gave him a discount, so 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: "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 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 a hint, 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, the grain 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.
