With the arrival of many refugees, the place became even more lively, because preparations had been made in advance, and these refugees also came in batches, so everything was in order.
In an open space, a lot of wood is piled up, which is used to build houses.
At this time, the many refugees who had just been recruited had all eaten and drank enough, and began to get busy in the open space. The first thing these refugees had to do was to build houses.
Although the villages in Xishan are very large, there will always be extra houses if they are crowded, but this is not a long-term solution. In the end, we will have to build separate houses specifically to house these refugees.
After the refugees were full, they all worked very hard. They all knew that it was rare to meet such a good person, otherwise they would definitely continue to starve and freeze in the cold wind. They did not dare to be lazy, for fear of being fired.
In fact, most of these refugees are poor farmers. They have run out of food in the winter and have no other options, so they come out to become refugees. As long as they have a job, food to eat, and can survive the winter, they are naturally willing to do anything.
of.
Liu Jin and Qian Youcai kept patrolling everywhere in Xishan, and felt relieved when they saw that everything was in order.
"My Mr. Liu, it's okay to recruit these refugees. We still need manpower anyway. We can just give them a bite to eat. Why do we need to pay them wages?"
The two of them came to a meal spot and saw the refugees reincarnating themselves to death one by one from starvation, eating a steamed bun in just a few bites. Qian Youcai couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
He really couldn't understand that these refugees only needed to be given food to eat, and there was no need to use good steamed buns to go with the porridge. A bowl of porridge and water was enough. They even had to pay wages.
"You will understand later. If you don't understand now, just do as I say."
Liu Jin looked at Qian Youcai and said nonchalantly.
"Sun Erniang, come here and give me the article for a hug."
At this time, Liu Jin saw Sun Erniang who was busy non-stop. At this time, she tied the article to her back and was sweating profusely while working at a stove.
"Eh~"
When Sun Erniang saw that it was Liu Jin, she felt relieved and handed the little article to Liu Jin.
"The little guy slept so soundly. It seems that he is really full this time."
Liu Jin looked at the little guy in his arms. The nanny he hired had plenty of milk. The little guy was well fed. He didn't cry or fuss at this time. He fell asleep peacefully. There was blood on his face.
"Sleep well."
Gently returning the little guy to Sun Erniang, Liu Jin also had a smile on his face, feeling that he had done something great.
"Brother Jin, there are two people looking for you."
At this time, Zhao Erhu hurried over and said.
"Someone is looking for me? Who is it?"
Liu Jin said with some doubts.
"I don't know him either, but judging from his appearance, he seems to have a good background, and his tone is quite loud."
Zhao Erhu shook his head and said.
"Oh no, someone must be interested in our Xishan Coal Industry's briquette business. Come on, let's go over and have a look."
Liu Jin was not in a hurry, but Qian Youcai couldn't help shouting.
"Yeah, let's go and have a look together."
Liu Jin smiled and didn't take it seriously. The briquettes were so profitable that they would be targeted sooner or later. However, the major shareholder of Xishan Coal Industry was the current Emperor Hongzhi. With this backer, Liu Jin was naturally not afraid of anyone.
Soon, following Zhao Erhu, Liu Jin also saw someone coming.
These two people were dressed in ordinary clothes and looked very ordinary. They even had patches on their clothes. They were about 20 years old and had thick eyebrows. Their eyes were shining when they looked at the busy scene at Xishan Coal Industry.
"Brother, these briquettes cost 2 cents each. Look at this large piece of briquettes. The number is at least several thousand, or even tens of thousands."
"With this press, 2 cents came out. There is such a good thing in the world. Why didn't we think of it before?"
"I heard that Xishan Coal Industry can earn 100,000 taels of silver a month and millions of taels of silver this year."
"No, people in the capital are using briquettes now, and many dignitaries are looking for coal mountains, planning to buy this briquettes too."
"As uncles of the state, we two brothers wear patched clothes and eat only porridge and water. We are really poor!"
"Yeah, poor brother, I'm hungry. When are we going to kill a chicken?"
"What kind of chicken are you eating? Have you earned enough money for a chicken today?"
"I think about eating chicken every day. What I eat is not eating. You have to know that a thousand nights in Guangsha can't sleep more than six feet, and the wealth is huge. The daily eclipse can't be more than three meals. It's enough to drink porridge, as long as you don't starve to death."
"But, brother, we haven't eaten meat for a long time. When will we go to the palace to find my sister and have some meat at her place?"
The two brothers looked sneaky, talking to each other while walking around Xishan.
"Two friends, don't you know Gao's last name?"
Liu Jin looked at these two people and realized that he didn't know them at all. After thinking about it, he stepped forward and asked.
"My name is Zhang Heling, and this is my younger brother Zhang Yanling."
Zhang Heling looked at Liu Jin, then at Qian Youcai, and said arrogantly: "Are you Liu Jin, the Liu Jin who said that the Golden Continent is full of gold?"
"It turns out it's Shouning Hou and Jianchang Bo. I'm Liu Jin. I don't know what the purpose of these two great ministers is."
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately knew the identity of these two people. The two brothers of Empress Zhang, the wife of the current Emperor Hongzhi, relied on their status as relatives of the emperor in history to do evil, be arrogant and domineering, bully men and women, and did almost all kinds of evil.
Of course, the relatives of the emperor and the dignitaries are almost the same. The dignitaries such as Duke Dingguo, Uncle Yutian, and Uncle Changhua are all the same. As for the princes of the old Zhu family who entrusted various places, they are also the same model.
No one is better than anyone else.
But it’s okay for these two brothers to do evil, and more importantly, they don’t have the brains to judge the situation. They did evil and acted arrogantly during the Ming Xiaozong and Ming Wuzong dynasties. By the time of Ming Shizong, Emperor Jiajing, they didn’t know how to restrain themselves and intensified their behavior.
.
So as soon as Empress Zhang died, the two brothers were immediately sent to Caishikou by Emperor Jiajing. From this, it was known that these two brothers had no idea of sizing up the situation.
Ming Xiaozong and Ming Wuzong, one is his brother-in-law and the other is his nephew. With their sister here, they are naturally fine. However, the Jiajing Emperor and their two brothers have nothing to do. They don't know how to restrain themselves and are still doing evil. This queen
Once they die, their time of death has also come.
Now that these two brothers were looking for him, Liu Jin suddenly became nervous. These two brothers could do anything thanks to Queen Zhang's favor.
As for Qian Youcai on the side, when he heard that it was Shouning Hou and Jianchang Bo, his face suddenly turned pale, as if a disaster was about to happen, and his face turned pale with fear.
As a businessman, or a businessman in the capital, Qian Youcai naturally knows all the news and people clearly. When doing business in the capital, if you don't know these things, you don't know how you died. The Zhang brothers
