Chapter 61 Marriage ()
At present, Huang Laifu has painted the prospects for the development of the red date processing industry in Pak Dezhou, and his second brother-in-law Li Yingchun was very happy. Red dates and coal and iron are also expected in Pak Dezhou's future development prospects.
Things were settled like this, and the few people discussed it for a while and decided that after Huang Laifu got married, various industries could begin one after another in mid-September.
While the few people were talking enthusiastically, the eldest uncle Gu Shibao, who was standing beside him, was so envious that he had a look of envy on his thin, thick and black face.
To be honest, he came to Wuzhai Fort this time with purpose. Gu Shibao has been in Kelan Prefecture and is responsible for the management of Gu's family's fields. However, the barren fields have made him feel a little disheartened over the years. After he learned about Huang Laifu's experience, the courage to manage hundreds of thousands of acres of land made him feel a little excited, especially the prosperous situation of Wuzhai Fort, which made him even more moved. He really wanted to come and help Huang Laifu work and help manage the fields of various farms in Wuzhai Fort, but he was embarrassed to say these words.
At this time, he sighed and said, "My brother-in-law's courage is becoming more and more admirable. If this continues, the development prospects of Wuzhai Fort are unlimited."
He said, "Looking at the busy trading of you, I'm doing nothing. Alas, this person is really incomparable to people."
Several brother-in-law were happy when they heard this, but they all shook their hands on the surface, expressing their humility.
Huang Laifu looked at Gu Shibao, but his heart was moved. At the moment, his farm was getting more and more things, but he lacked a general manager. He usually had to manage the army and the affairs of various farms. Now that Wuzhaibao is getting more and more things, he has to deal with it everywhere. He is already very busy and wants to use it alone.
Although Mr. Yang is helping with the affairs of various farms in Wuzhaibao, he is old and has to be busy with the affairs of Qianhu House and manage the affairs of various farms. His energy is getting worse and worse.
Huang Laifu had long wanted to find someone to come to the Prime Minister's farms, but this management person is not so easy to find. After all, Huang Laifu is unwilling to hand over the farm affairs to another person casually. Although Huang Laifu has many things to hand over to He Vice-Chenghu and others, he also has a bottom line. He can divide other powers, but he must hold the finance and military power hard in his hands.
Thinking about it now, this eldest uncle Gu Shibao is his own family. If Huang Laifulai asked Gu Shibao to manage the farm, it would be effective, and others would not say anything about the problem of outsiders seizing the throne. After all, in this era, it would be normal to use his own family. Besides, Gu Shibao also had experience in managing fields in Kelanzhou City. Although he might not be familiar with the Wuzhaibao Farm at once, he would probably get started after a while.
He smiled and said, "Why should my third brother be humble? You are also very good at operating farmland in Kelan Prefecture? Let's do this. I have a lot of things now. I have never been able to manage the various farms of Wuzhaibao. Butler Yang is old again. Since my third brother has come to Wuzhaibao, why should I come and help me? Help me manage the various farms of Wuzhaibao."
Gu Shibao was surprised and happy when he heard this, and said, "My brother-in-law meant to let me manage those farms?... It's good, but I'm afraid I won't manage it well. After all, it's hundreds of thousands of acres of land."
Huang Laifu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I believe in my third brother-in-law's ability. Uncle Gu said that the third brother-in-law is all managed by the fields in Kelan Prefecture. If you are not familiar with each other at once, it doesn't matter. I will ask the managers of those farms to cooperate with you."
Gu Shibao said excitedly: "Since my brother-in-law says that, I will agree with shame. Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely take care of each farm."
Huang Laifu nodded with a smile, and was also happy. Finally, he found a capable person to help him. He was not worried about the current farm affairs. According to the farm management system he set, it was linked together and checked and balanced with each other. What is important is that the accounting rooms of each farm are independent and are not managed by the managers of each farm or the head of the general station, but are directly responsible to Huang Laifu's general account Zhou Wendong. Then Zhou Wendong was responsible to Huang Laifu, which was the greatest force to avoid the possible collusion of his subordinates after the development of the farm in the future.
The fat and fat fourth brother-in-law Gu Shitong, who was sitting next to him, was still a little moved at this time, thinking: "Looking at Wuzhai Fort, I will come to Wuzhai Fort to develop in the future." He has been running several stores in Kelanzhou City and thought it was very good, but after listening to Huang Laifu and his brother-in-law, he realized that he was too far apart from Huang Laifu and others.
He said, "I heard from my brother-in-law that I will think about the development of Wuzhaibao in the future, so I don't know what to do. It seems that those who can make money will be divided up by the merchants."
Huang Laifu smiled and said, "It's best if my fourth brother-in-law can come to Wuzhai Fort, as for what to do."
Huang Laifu pondered for a while and said, "Why would the fourth brother-in-law help me help my third brother-in-law manage the various farms? If you don't want to, there will be more and more goods in Wuzhaibao in the future. My brother-in-law might as well run a couch and do some cargo. Just now, my fourth brother-in-law also heard that my Wuzhaibao will be connected with my brother-in-law's castles in the future. All kinds of coal and iron will be gathered in Wuzhaibao to make a couch and do some cargo transportation, which will also make a lot of profits."
Gu Shitong said happily: "It's good, it's good. I decided to move to Wuzhai Fort in a few days."
After that, everyone was even more happy and discussed some things. Huang Laifu looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late. It's time to prepare for a banquet for Lord Zhang tonight. Why not have a few brother-in-law and brother-in-law to attend this dinner together?"
Everyone hurriedly said, "Okay, OK."
Especially the three brother-in-law, they were even more happy. Their food and salary were all given by Zhang Wenbao. They didn’t have the opportunity to curry favor with him before, but now they have the opportunity to have a good relationship with him, which is the best thing.
※※※
September 9, 1590 AD.
The entire Wuzhai Fort is decorated with lights and a joyful atmosphere.
Today is the great event for the Qianhu Lord Huang Laifu and the Gu family in Kelanzhou City. This is also the great event for the military households of Wuzhai Fort. It is the great event for the Qianhu Lord. Everyone in Wuzhai Fort has a good life of full food and clothing. Now the Qianhu Lord is happy, so you must not forget your roots in life.
Therefore, in this day, in addition to the lights and decorations in Qianhu’s houses, the military households of Wuzhai Fort were also busy hanging big red wedding lanterns at their doorsteps, pasting new wedding couplets, and having fun together.
There are also merchants who run shops in Wuzhai Fort, and they are also decorated with lights at the door of the store. With Huang Laifu's prestige in Wuzhai Fort, even if everyone is thinking about anything, in the festive atmosphere, if he doesn't express anything and is criticized by the military households in the fort, he will probably be driven out of Wuzhai Fort, and then he will be done.
Of course, in addition to Wuzhai Fort, the various farms of Wuzhai Fort outside the fort were also dressed happily, with big red wedding cages everywhere, and the sound of firecrackers kept hearing, which made some clever merchants make a big deal because the lantern red paper they sold had already been sold out.
In addition, many people have also planned what gifts should I give to Mr. Qianhu this time? Although Mr. Qianhu Huang Laifu said that those who come to have a wedding banquet will welcome him and do not need to give any gifts, but for the officers of Wuzhai Fort and the merchants of Wuzhai Fort, Mr. Qianhu said that this is what he said, but he cannot be rude, right?
Therefore, the officers of Wuzhai Fort, from He Qianhu, sent generous gifts early that morning. The merchants of Wuzhai Fort also sent generous gifts from Qu Yuanrui. As for the ordinary military servants of Wuzhai Fort, although they could not afford to give away any valuable things, the Qianhu Lord gave himself a good life. This is why we should not forget our roots? We cannot afford to give a big gift, so we can only give some small gifts to express our feelings.
Wuzhaibao Third Farm.
The Third Farm of Wuzhaibao is not very far from the First Farm. The Third Farm manages more than 10,000 acres of surrounding fields, and there are more than 200 garrisons. However, with the families of some garrisons, there are nearly 1,000 people.
In this farm, in addition to some military outdoors of Wuzhai Fort, some of them were originally refugee residents. However, now all these refugee residents have joined the military household registration of Wuzhai Fort.
There is no way, the treatment is different from that of Wuzhaibao's military household registration. According to the system set by Huang Laifu, the refugee residents who do not have the military household registration are not as good as those of the military household registration. Whether it is monthly food or rewards, they are not as good as those of the military household registration. Looking at the same job, the treatment is different. These original refugee residents all joined the military household registration of Wuzhaibao without hesitation.
Of course, when they joined the Wuzhaibao military household registration, these former refugee residents also struggled with thoughts. After all, they had heard of them before and saw many of them, and the tragic lives of military households such as states, counties and garrisons in various places.
However, in Wuzhai Fort, this situation is the opposite. In front of the reality, people with military household registration in Wuzhai Fort can live a good life and a stable life. As long as they work hard, they will not have to worry about having no food. What is the name of what Lord Huang Laifu said: "Iron Rice Bowl!" And after the harvest of a year, the total harvest reward of the farm alone makes every resident laugh.
In this year, eating with stable food is better than anything else. Looking at the vibrant appearance of Wuzhaibao, it will only get better and better in the future. Under the comparison of reality, they naturally know how to choose.
Of course, this situation also generally occurs in various farms of Wuzhaibao. Basically, the original private households and refugee residents of Wuzhaibao have all joined the Wuzhaibao military household registration, and after this bumper harvest, they have brought their wives and children to the top. This has also made the open population of Wuzhaibao, including various farms, break through the 20,000 mark. Of course, some merchants and refugees who are making a living in Wuzhaibao are not included.
After several months of operation, the third farm of Wuzhai Fort has a little smell of a small military fort. The construction of the fort was submitted by the managers. After they arrived at Huang Laifu, they collectively pulled out money and grain for repair. Both the chief and supervisors in the fort had no right to make their own decisions and keep grain to repair the farm.
At this time, the entrance of the third farm was already full of joy, with big red lanterns hanging high. (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please log in to www.qidian.com. There are more chapters, support the author and support genuine reading!) (To be continued)
