Chapter 228: Little Brother of the Fan Family

There are no officials.

His sister Xiaoice is not a fuel-saving lamp, originally entered a landlord surnamed Hong as a maid, and within a month of entering, the wife of the family had already returned to her mother's house angrily, but the landlord Hong was just a landlord in a small place.

When the elders' engineering team passed by and needed to recruit labor in the village, the men, women, and children of the village, after the initial period of suspicion and alarm, all began to work for the elders, and everyone would settle the accounts and work for the elders for a month, and the harvest of the previous year.

As a "maid" who has received the house and is being favored, Xiaoice naturally does not have to go out to work, but occasionally seeing the majesty of those adults makes her mind active, and the source of knowledge in her life is basically to occasionally gather to listen to the drama of someone chanting, and occasionally there are big families to do red and white happy events, and invite the grass stage team to sing various plays.

But she had no teacher to understand herself, and a certain elder took the opportunity to get together to curry favor when she helped Zhang Luo mung bean soup, and came and went, just in what the Wang family brothers in charge of the project thought, but in the end, Fan Xiaoice was allowed to enter the city and see the world.

It was in this situation that Fan Zhengzheng also entered the imperial capital.

However, even if he drilled up and down the camp, Fan Zhengzheng could no longer learn the cultural class, and he could not afford to suffer as a soldier, although Fan Xiaoice wanted to arrange for Fan Zhengzheng to be a glorious ancestor, and the number of senior officials was immediately stopped by the elders who were closely watched, and at the same time a bill was introduced, stipulating that if people with the status of "foreign relatives" similar to this outside wanted to enter the system for promotion, they must undergo a special review, which was by no means a higher-level existence like the children of the Eight Banners, but developed that there would never be any favoritism and malpractice.

And it's the same whether it's business or anything else.

After struggling for a long time, the two brothers-in-law ...... That's right, the two brothers-in-law came up with an idea to simply let Fan Zhengzheng start a plantation.

You only need to master the capital, you don't have to work hard, most of the work can be driven by the overseer to the slave labor, of course, the children of the farmer, it is okay to do this, at least, the future fruit industry imports, at least can pull more orders, in the next many years, the southern fruit market is basically difficult to saturate.

However, Fan Zhengzheng can't go anymore.

When he arrived in Vietnam, he remembered the crowded, atmospheric concrete forest before the departure from Tianjin, compared to the dilapidated Hongji Port, it was naturally disillusioned, and it was almost difficult to accept this fact.

Crying and fussing there, what "...... my sister" "You guys are not ......"

However, except for a few people who were fooled into making a fortune, basically no one paid attention to him.

Of course, the two brothers-in-law still put some thought into Fan Zhengzheng, the scale of the plantation they applied for was not small, and the place was also a traditional Vietnamese planting area, and even approved twenty rifles to facilitate the management of slaves, as well as a lot of help medicines, it can be said that Fan Zhengzheng did not have much to think about.

Of course, it was difficult to count on a few elders in Vietnam to take care of him.

"You're a little late."

The man in the Hongji office spoke northern dialect, and it was obvious that he was an old man brought from the imperial capital, but he did not hesitate to say anything about Fan Zhengzheng, who wanted to show his brother-in-law's identity.

After all, there are more than three hundred male elders, and many of them are quite interested in doing a good job in the construction of the harem, so naturally there will be a huge group of relatives outside the harem, if everyone takes care of it, then the Elder Republic will have to be dragged down.

Fortunately, Xiaoice has amazing power to charm men, and the two brothers-in-law also put some thought into it and invested a lot of money in Fan Zhengzheng.

Fan Zhengzheng's uncle hurriedly said: "What does this mean, we have a approval!" ”

"Oh, I mean, next to the sea, there are some lands that originally belonged to the nobles of the Yue Kingdom, almost all of them were occupied first, of course, people want this leisurely choice, but also spent money, now, to 3,000 acres of such a large land, you have to go to the upper reaches of the Fuliang River, I am afraid that you will have to stay here for a few more days, in a few days it seems that there are businessmen from Guangdong, also come to rent land to open plantations, you choose what to plant."

"It's all chosen, but where will the slave go?"

"Ah, I basically have to wait for the Portuguese to sell it, anyway, I have to wait, eight taels of silver, I may not save eight taels a year." The man laughed at himself, in fact, his salary was high enough, but he just loved to drink and play, and he couldn't save money.

Fan Zhengzheng got such a result, but also helpless, at this time Fang knew what it meant to be completely helpless, fortunately, a few relatives had seen the world in the imperial capital, although they didn't have much knowledge at all, they were always indignant why they couldn't rely on Bing'er's relationship to be an official, but the two brothers-in-law still put some thought into it.

Three thousand acres of land, but the first hand of the big hand, Rao Youwang two elders, after being fascinated by Xiaoice, spent the real book, but also to plan carefully.

At this point, they are all croppers, and they soon found that the land in Vietnam is good, and naturally there are many people who come here to make a fortune.

Before coming, they all asked for some personal money from Fan Xiaoice, and the money for nothing was naturally spent happily, and they soon found that Hongji was crowded with all kinds of people at this time, and the number was mostly Cantonese and Fujianese, and the Cantonese people relied on geographical advantages and proximity, and the Fujianese naturally helped his fellow villagers because of Zheng Zhilong's foresight.

There are even a few foreigners, but unlike other travelers who regard foreigners and foreign priests as treasures, the elders can't think of these who also belong to the local dick, and when they arrive in China, they call themselves nobles, hoping to pretend to be envoys to get benefits.

At this point, they also discovered in a new time and space, with the advent of the Age of Discovery, and the embodiment of the diplomacy of my Ming Dynasty and my Qing Dynasty fools, for a time, countless countries that did not exist appeared envoys to meet the emperor of China, which naturally asked the Guangdong government to give money and grain.

You may still be deceived at first, but Guangdong has been doing business with Westerners for hundreds of years, how can you be deceived by this?

I'm afraid that this is also what some people in my Qing Dynasty muttered, "Xiban has teeth, grapes have teeth, teeth become a country, unheard of in history, unrecorded, absurd, nothing more than this".

Of course, although it is only the beginning, but these relatives also regard themselves as the chief steward and the second steward, a man who barely studied a subject in the accounting short course mixed an account room, and the manager of the surprise training, of course, this project is self-financing, if you lose money, no one cares.

It is not easy to measure and count the land in Vietnam, even with the help of drones, but the jungle itself is difficult to observe, not to mention that there are direct impostors, which naturally takes time.

Fortunately, as an elder personally invested in the brother-in-law's livelihood, the planting varieties selected, one-third is coffee, one-third is banana, one-third is fragrant rice, as for the investment is naturally not small, although the land is tax-free for three years, but can be called 3,000 acres of land, and the cost of prepaid coffee seeds and banana seeds in advance can be a lot.

There are also people who farm the land, although they can hire Vietnamese locals, but it is better to save some money.

"The price of each slave in Batavia is said to be one tael of silver, and how many times it has been transported here, which is really sky-high."

"What do you think, this is still because the South China Sea in Southeast Asia is relatively peaceful, it is really the kind of sea conditions in the Atlantic, ten black slaves almost half of them die before they can reach the United States, what kind of cost is that, no wonder a black slave is a sky-high price of four hundred dollars, or during the American Civil War, without slave farmers, the farmers would go bankrupt, no wonder the morale of the Southern army is so high."

"It's still inhumane."

"You are humane, you want to eat cheap and delicious bananas, but you don't want to work on the farm yourself, you make people very embarrassed."

Li Dakang pushed his glasses, he practiced in front of the mirror for a long time, and he could basically be majestic, and said: "Zheng Xiaqi jumped up and down. ”

Mu Rongshan shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said: "People are the heroes of pacifying Vietnam when they open their mouths and close their mouths, and it is normal to ask for benefits, it is nothing more than to get benefits for the villagers, this is the problem of the new governor of Quang Nam Province, not my problem." ”

Li Dakang's face changed and said, "You obviously know that you are talking about me." ”

Mu Rongshan said: "How do you say that sentence, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight, ha, you are a big man who will dominate one side in the future, and you will be the first one in charge of our interior." ”

The territory directly controlled by the elders at present, that is, a Hebei Province and the Northeast, Hebei Province due to the construction of railways, the influence of the elders continues to extend, in fact, there is no high-ranking official to grasp the general, and the vast and sparsely populated Liaodong is actually very boring, usually concurrently serving as an appendage of countless titles.

And in Shandong and Shanxi and other places, now the elders are also slowly infiltrating, there is no way, the number of people is insufficient, and the control is insufficient, that's it.

As a feudal official, he is a real emperor in Vietnam, and he is also responsible for seducing the coastal Han people who are far away to come to reclaim the wasteland, which is naturally powerful and powerful.

Li Dakang smiled proudly, but immediately sighed again: "Don't say it, now many places are empty, and I also preach tax exemption for investment promotion for three years, I casually calculated the general ledger and found that I have not yet taken office, and I am already bankrupt, otherwise, brother, you can stay and help me." ”

Mu Rongshan waved his hand frantically and said: "Don't mind, my task has also been completed, eh, the main thing is that there is a big matter in Nanjing, ha, as for the money, didn't the imperial capital give you input." ”

Li Dakang said anxiously: "You don't know, what does it feel like for everyone to calculate money at me now, not to mention the salary, or the people who do things for us, the confiscated land, but they can only be leased for free for three years, and after three years, Australia will be almost developed, and the Americas can go to people, what is it worth, the most hateful thing is that I still have to raise a group of women who don't have to do anything!" ”

As a kind of face and political correctness, Zheng Zhun's wife and children naturally want to support them.

"Isn't a lot of property in the hands of the provincial government?"

"It's a drop in the bucket, and to be honest, we're all Cantonese people right now, and once they cut off our grain procurement channels this year, the possibility of us relying on commercial means to get food is almost gone," Li said. ”

"Guangdong grain is very expensive."

"You forgot, people don't have to hand over the grain now, it is equivalent to a large amount of grain, so to speak, part of the grain sold to us is probably the grain that was originally to be paid."

Mu Rongshan scratched his head and said: "I haven't been to Guangdong, I only went around in Hong Kong, but I feel that in this era, my businessmen don't have this kind of vision, okay, even if they do, they don't have this execution." ”

Li Dakang said: "The rise in food prices is inevitable, and a large number of people will soon pour in here, so there must be corresponding managers, and we have to clean up bandits while building. ”

"Don't talk nonsense," Mu Rongshan said with a smile: "I don't know anything else, isn't this tax exemption a fancy intestine made by the imperial capital, the tax exemption is very simple, but all kinds of taxes and fees are not a penny, seed money, slave money, and even salt production are also state-owned, not to mention the goods shipped from the imperial capital, at least the money earned in the first year is ready to be transferred and paid to you, as well as confiscated gold and silver treasures, you are the real rich man, we are afraid that you will embezzle." ”

Li Dakang was embarrassed and said: "Don't say this, how can I be corrupt, it's all rumors." ”

From the very beginning, the elders' property has been planned, and no one will eat more than they will occupy, which is a little fair to the elders who are buried in the internal speed climbing technology.

People are engaged in education, you are a high-ranking official, and the speed of making money is definitely not as fast as you, so who will have peace of mind in the end?

Mu Rongshan said: "Moreover, isn't there still such a big place to fight, it is to penetrate the Indochina Peninsula in one go, there are so many fleets, the army listens to your orders, take your time, of course, internal affairs are the most important." ”

Li Dakang sighed and said: "What we said just now, the Portuguese are actually not slow, and they are also very active under the sixteen times the violence, but, according to the plan, in the case of only primary machinery, the slaves needed are thousands, but there are no good slaves in Southeast Asia." ”

Different from the racial discrimination felt by later generations, in the earth of later generations, the price of a well-trained and obedient black slave is much higher than that of a white indentured slave, and naturally it is higher than that of slaves of other races, although this is surprising, but it is not so surprising, in fact, the lower castes in India are also good, but the local tea plantations are still too busy, how can they be sold.

"Don't be busy with these things yet, how is your governor's palace ready?"

"Come on, Hanoi has been destroyed by you, I don't want to work in a place with so many dead people, Hongji is fine, and when the province is unified, I will move to Hue."
