Chapter 137 Everyone gets rich (for Jiuniu's old friend
In the tavern, the peddlers who had been chatting enthusiastically after drinking good wine suddenly became quiet. Although they were singles, they were not by nature and were unwilling to cooperate. It was just that they were dissatisfied with each other. As the saying goes, a snake cannot do without a head. If there is no convincing person as the leader, how could everyone trust each other?
"Grandmaster, Ding Siyuan serves you."
Among the peddlers, Ding Silang was the first to make a decision. He was young and had no family, and did not have so many concerns. Isn’t it better to do things under a hero like Gao Jin than to be a single gang and be a peddler for the rest of his life?
Ding Silang made this opening, and the other peddlers did not hesitate anymore. After all, this was a huge opportunity. Those who went to the single gang were also dangerous businesses that kept their heads on their crotch. Perhaps a heavy snow or a major disaster could turn the people of the villages outside the city into wild animals, making them chewed to the point where they were not even left.
In the past, the big merchants looked down on them, and the small caravans were unwilling to suffer the idleness. The noble man in front of him was generous and a hero who could keep the local peace. Such a big man came to recruit them and others in person, which gave him enough face. If he refused, wouldn’t he be crazy about gaining or losing his heart?
"We are willing to serve the Lord."
The peddlers quickly shouted neatly, now everyone is serving the Lord, and some of the slightest rifts of the past have been put down.
The shopkeeper of the tavern, seeing the peddlers joining the high-ranking master, couldn't help but think that this peddler is not a business cause. What can these peddlers do even if they are together? The villages near Shenmubao are poor. These peddlers can even fight each other in order to grab business. If there weren't a group of bastards in the city that forced them to join in, how could they sit together and drink and chat?
"Okay, since you are willing to do things for me, Gao also has something to say first. I have many rules. I will give you three months. If you are still willing to serve Gao in three months, you will be treated like a servant in my Gao Mansion. If you can't keep it, let's get together and part with you."
Gao Jin's eyes swept over Ding Silang and other people. These peddlers were not considered simple and kind people in this era. Their minds were much heavier than servants like Li Ergou Wang Ding.
"Master, since we have followed you, we will be absolutely loyal..."
Because Ding Silang first met Gao Jin, the noble man, after he voted for Gao Jin, the peddlers were vaguely led by Ding Silang. After Gao Jin said this, Ding Silang immediately stood up and knelt down to express his loyalty, but was supported by Gao Jin.
"I am confident that you are, but there are many rules under my command. You will know in the future, so there is no need to rush..."
The peddlers did not listen to Gao Jin's words, but what they thought was that since those servants could follow the rules of Gao Jun, would they not be able to keep it? They should not let Gao Jun underestimate it.
"I'll have something to do next."
Since he had collected these peddlers, Gao Jin immediately wanted to use them. Although Hekou Fort was building canals and roads, it was currently doing the most basic job of dredging and dredging of river channels. When it was really time to build canals and gates, he still lacked craftsmen who knew civil engineering.
"Grandpa is destined to do so, let's do it."
Ding Silang straightened his chest, and the group of peddlers behind him were also ready to beat their hands and were full of energy, "That's right, Grandpa, just give me the order."
"Sit down and say."
Gao Jin called Ding Silang and the others to sit down again before explaining what he wanted them to do. "I will send a team of servants to you later. You can go to the village you are familiar with and invite all the capable craftsmen you have just said to Hekou Fort. Whoever will be the craftsmen who will be the one who will be Ding Silang's deputy in the future."
Ding Silang took the lead in seeking his own interests, so Gao Jin naturally wanted to give him an identity as an encouragement. As for this position as a deputy, it would give other peddlers a hope and also give Ding Silang some pressure.
"A Sheng." As Gao Jin called out lightly, Chen Sheng picked up a full-bodied leather bag at his feet and threw it to Ding Silang. "This is a settlement fee for those craftsmen. As long as they are really capable, they will be three or three taels per household."
Ding Silang took the bag of silver and money, but couldn't help but open it and look. Then he and the others breathed heavily. The bag was filled with broken silver, probably not less than 200 taels. There was so much money they had never touched, and they had never seen it before.
Originally, the peddlers thought that they had to rely on their words to convince the craftsmen, but they did not expect that this high man was so generous that even An Jiayin was prepared. Only fools would not want to go to Hekou Fort.
"My second brother has always been kind and generous. Ding Si, you have to disappoint my second brother, otherwise the knife in my hand will not spare you!"
Seeing Ding Silang and the others staring at the bag of silver money in a daze, Yang Dayan became a villain and warned that two hundred taels of money were already a great fortune that could make people take risks. Who knew if Ding Silang would have evil thoughts and ran away with the money.
"Master Yang, although I, Ding Si, is not a hero, but I am not an ungrateful bastard. If I have a second thought, I will call God to beat me..."
Yang Dayan's words immediately made Ding Silang come to his senses, so he quickly swears, saying that if he was greedy for money and ruined the great affairs of Gao Ye, he would not die well.
"Ding Si, I can trust you. You can drink. After you finish drinking, you will go to Liu's Qianhu Mansion. I have someone left there. His name is Wang Ding, and he will leave the city with you."
Gao Jin did not let Ding Silang continue to make a vicious oath, but stood up and said, then took Chen Sheng and Wang Dou and the others away. He also wanted to go to Fanji Store to visit Fan Xiu'an and discuss when to go to Camel City to meet Guan Ye.
"Great send to the high school."
Gao Jin and the others left, and when Ding Silang sat down again, he felt like a different life. He couldn't believe that everything that happened just now was true, but the bag of silver in front of him could not be fake.
"You guys, you have heard what Gao Mai said just now. I won't say much about Gao Mai's character. We must do this beautiful thing that Gao Mai has told me. You can't tell others that Gao Mai has taken a look and is not clear about it."
Ding Silang packed the bag of silver and looked at the peddlers around him. Now everyone is in the same class and should make some things clear, "We used to have rifts with each other, but now we are all doing things for the high-ranking master. If anyone breaks down each other, don't blame me Ding Si for being polite."
"Ding Si, since the Grand Master asked you to be the leader, I will listen to you!"
Among the peddlers, Liu Heizi, who had a mole on his face, said first. The rest of the peddlers also agreed, "No, let's listen to you."
"Okay, since everyone listens to me, according to my opinion, let's save this wine first, and let's do the business first, and we'll have a good time when we come back."
The three-year-old apricot blossom wine left by Gao Jindian was still mostly left, but Ding Silang was unwilling to delay, and the others did not object after hearing this. Even those with good wine knew that the main business was the priority at this time.
"Shopkeeper, this jar of wine will be sealed for us. Let's drink it next time, and we will wrap these foods for us."
Ding Silang shouted to the shopkeeper, full of confidence when speaking, and even his back, which had always been a little curved, was straightened.
"Ding Si, you guys have come to a good fortune when you meet a noble man. You will make money with the high man in the future, but you have to come and visit him more."
The shopkeeper said, while asking the man to seal the wine jar and wrap the remaining beef and mutton with oil paper for Ding Silang and the others.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"
Ding Silang replied, and then took the peddlers out of the tavern. Even though it was cold outside, the group of people were warm and just wanted to do what the Grand Master had assigned.
But they didn't know that there was always someone behind them. This person was either someone else, but Yang Dayan. No matter how generous Gao Jin was, he could not give Ding Silang 200 taels of silver without any help.
...
The east of Shenmu Fort is the station of Fanji Business. When Gao Jin and his friends arrived, on the huge open space in front of the business, the guys were loading the goods on the truck. These were the supplies Fan Xiu'an promised to send to Hekou Fort. Because of the coal stove and honeycomb coal, the quantity doubled several times.
"Master, you are here!"
The old shopkeeper who was commanding the guys saw Gao Jin and his party, and immediately came forward. He knew very well that this high man was very important in his master's mind. Even the commander in Shenmu County was not as good as that.
"Thank you for your hard work in the old shopkeeper. You are working hard for the people of Hekoubao. Gao will definitely give a good reward in the future."
Fan Ji Business Name is the largest business in Shenmu Castle. Niu Fan Xiu'an has many people and will not stay in Shenmu Castle often in the future. In the future, he will have to deal with the old shopkeeper in front of him, so Gao Jin was also very polite.
"What is the old man saying? This is what the old man should do."
The old shopkeeper was quite happy when Gao Jin said that, but he was still reserved on his face, so he just invited Gao Jin and the others to go into the business.
"Old shopkeeper, those are the food that Brother Fan said was transported from the mainland, I might go and take a look!"
On that day, in Hekou Fort, Fan Xiu'an once told Gao Jin that he had a batch of old grain on hand and could be given to him at a low price. If it was just old grain, Gao Jin would not care. He was afraid that it was not as simple as old grain.
"Master, but it's okay."
Suidezhou is a dry wharf, and the northwest of the material transportation must be transported to Suidezhou. As the largest business gang in Suidezhou, Suide merchant gang naturally has a large number of warehouses, which are engaged in the business of reselling and reselling.
The batch of old grains mentioned by Fan Xiu'an was transported from Huguang three years ago, and the last one left was the one who had been put into the warehouse and was not spared. Originally, Fan Xiu'an planned to transfer it to Shenmuwei, but now he was half sold and half delivered to Gao Jin.
"Then it's a labor."
When he walked to a truck of grain, he beside Gao Jin, Wang Douzi came forward and took out the bag casually. Then he picked up the hemp rope at the mouth of the bag with a knife, and then exposed the old grain inside. Looking at the yellow rice grains, Gao Jin didn't care. Chen Liang was like this, but Wang Dou and Chen Sheng were a little stunned. They grew up eating rice in Hekoubao since they were young, and when did they have seen this southern rice?
