Chapter 340 Yu family, its your turn!

I want to warn her later, be gentle now, people can't die yet!

The two chatted for a while, and Wang Xuan directly expressed his intention. Facing his uncle's request, Wei Pengyun waved his hand without saying a word and said: "You can pick the rest of the people in the guardhouse as you please, but I won't care if you drag them all over!"

"

In fact, Wei Pengyun really has the confidence to say this. After Wang Xuan provided food and accommodation for a thousand people last time, no one gave him two taels of silver every year. Wei Pengyun had to take 20% of the money!

If we look at the per capita output, this is more than twice as much as farming or doing odd jobs before. Even if Wang Xuan has to delay farming to send people to help, he is not afraid, the income will only be higher!

Besides, half of the warships under his command have been refitted some time ago and are now out to sea. According to his estimation, he dare not say more than that. One round trip can earn him the income of the previous half year. If it takes one year, the fleet alone,

You can earn more in one year than in the previous four years!

Now he has a beauty in his house and money in his hands. At this point in his life, what more can he ask for!

Wang Xuan doesn't care what he thinks, as long as he gets the person!

This time, he took away more than 5,000 people there. Basically, he took away more than half of the laborers. The rest were either farming or had gone to sea, or were old, weak, sick and disabled.

These more than 5,000 people, including some middle-aged women, were all gathered together.

In fact, although the etiquette in the Ming Dynasty was very strict, it was mostly for wealthy families. If the boss had enough food, it would be good. Who the hell cares about so much? Women also had to work and farm, otherwise they would wait until they were hungry.

Die!

If you want to stay at home without leaving the door, you have to be a girl from a rich family. For poor people, no rules have anything to do with them, and eating is a big deal!

Wang Xuan planned to put all these mature women to work in the textile factory, and the others were divided into two parts, the cement factory and the construction engineering team.

Wang Xuan wants to build a large wharf, a shipyard, a large area of ​​houses and warehouses, and a cement road connecting the official road on the land by the sea. All of these require a large number of manpower.

In addition, the steel plant also needs to start construction. The current iron production in Fujian is simply not enough for Wang Xuan's expenses. Fortunately, in the Caribbean world, he has presided over the establishment of the primary industrial system and understands these things very clearly!

For this reason, he also needed to visit the prefect of Qi. After all, salt and iron had always been a monopoly of the imperial court.

With the one thousand taels of silver as the starting point last time, this time Wang Xuan gave another one thousand taels of white rice. The two negotiated and contracted the government-run ironmaking workshop to Wang Xuan. The silver turned in every year will not change. As for Wang Xuan

How much you earn has nothing to do with the court.

Of course, every year Wang Xuan would distribute a thousand taels of "white rice" to the prefect of Qi.

After everything was settled, Wang Xuan asked Wei Changlin to take people back to the overseas Giant Whale Gang station. This time he wanted to bring all the people back. It was the time to employ people here.

After another month of hard work, all the more than 5,000 talents on the island came to Fuzhou Prefecture one after another. Registration and registration were of course not a problem. This time it was a complete reassurance for everyone.

There are only more than 3,000 strong laborers among the more than 5,000 people, and the rest are old and weak.

Even so, Wang Xuan already had more than 8,000 workers.

This seems like a lot. In fact, with the industrial technology of this era, whether it is cement plants or iron and steelmaking, a large number of manpower is needed. Not to mention the construction of docks and so much work, Wang Xuan still feels that there is not enough manpower!

With more than 100,000 silver in hand, Wang Xuan is full of confidence!

From Fuzhou Prefecture, including the following counties, plus Funing Prefecture, Wang Xuan began to arrange manpower to recruit workers on a large scale!

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, many common people had become tenants of landlords and had long lost their land. Wang Xuan set his sights on these people.

The money given by Wang Xuan is enough, and a strong laborer's salary can support the whole family. If a woman can also come out to make something, her life will be much better than being a tenant. After all, it is more secure.

Farming is entirely dependent on the weather. If there is a disaster, the rent paid to the landlord will be gone, and the rest will not even be enough for food.

Coupled with the guarantee of fellow villagers, Wang Xuan recruited no less than 3,000 households in a short time.

"Boom boom boom..."

Whether it is limestone ore, clay ore or iron ore, most of these minerals in Fujian are surface mines. Wang Xuan changed the manual mining method in the past and mainly used gunpowder blasting and human transportation, which greatly improved the efficiency.

During this time, the entire Fuzhou Prefecture focused their attention on Wang Xuan.

Everyone can see how many people Wang Xuan has recruited, and money is spent like water every day. Just the problem of feeding these more than 20,000 people has made several families in the grain business in Fuzhou burst into laughter.

The food consumed every day is 10,000 kilograms, and this is after the islanders before the Giant Whale Gang went fishing to provide a lot of meat. Otherwise, heavy physical labor consumes even more food!

The increased consumption after the arrival of more than 20,000 people immediately made Fuzhou Prefecture become active. Of course, Wang Xuan's reputation in Fuzhou Prefecture became even greater, and it began to radiate to the entire Fujian with the spread of businessmen.

After discovering this problem, Wang Xuan immediately began to give orders to Baihuamen, adding fuel to the flames and improving his family's reputation throughout Fuzhou. Many times, reputation, money, and power can be equated!

During this period of time, Wang Xuan felt like he was going crazy with work. After all, it was the initial stage of his industry, and he had to make decisions on both big and small matters.

With the return of the first batch of Wei Pengyun's fleet, the textile factory started to run. For his 'brother-in-law', Wang Xuan settled the bill directly in cash. At the same time, he agreed to continue to increase the shipping volume, and after the budget was passed, he would only use the carrying capacity of Wei Pengyun's fleet.

, it cannot satisfy the consumption of textile mills.

For this reason, Wang Xuan directly communicated with several wealthy families in the city.

Most of these wealthy families are involved in shipping to some extent, so it would be no problem for Wang Xuan to contact them if he needs it.

Moreover, with the operation of mechanization, a large amount of cloth began to hit the local market on a large scale at relatively low prices, which put another cloth business in Fuzhou, Yujia, facing a bankruptcy crisis.



Yujia, lobby.

The atmosphere is extremely depressing, and several principals in the room are looking at each other. What should I do?

Not to mention the large amount of goods accumulated in the warehouse, the current price of the Wang family's cloth alone is even lower than what they purchased. This business is impossible to do!

"I have long said not to provoke the Wang family, but now it's over!"

"Fart, you agreed at the beginning, don't say this, even if there is no such thing, the cost of other people's output is low!"

"Bang!" The head of the Yu family at the head of the table slammed the table, "I asked you to come, not to let you quarrel."
