11. Explore the stone factory at night
This is also to diversify the investment risk, so as not to put the eggs in the same basket, Xue Pan is very clear, if there is a very fixed logistics base, you can rely on this base to transport hoarding and transshipment goods, once the efficiency of logistics is displayed, its potential and power is huge, now in Jinling City, the rest of the merchants, go to sea to do a lot of maritime trade, if you can build a fast, efficient and modern port here in Jinling, this future silver is inexhaustible, Anyway, the risk of maritime trade is big, but we don't participate, just help receive and ship, no matter who does business, it's to use the wharf, right?
Xue Pan's medicinal materials, shops, tea, silk, etc. all need a logistics base of their own for turnover, he has long wanted to build a base of his own, and does not need to use other people's, now sleepy pillows, although everything has to be created by himself, but Xue Pan is very happy to do this.
But I didn't expect that this was just starting to build, and such a bad thing came again, Xue Pan closed his eyes and pondered on the carriage, his body swayed with the carriage, and Tong Shu kept chattering in his ears, "This river beach was no field in the old days, but after a big flood in the past, the river beach was exposed, and even the shallows with the river were all opened up by the local natives, and now there are a few acres of land. But these people have raised their prices very high, saying that they should sell them according to the best watered land, how can this be done? These days, when I was still talking, I didn't expect something to happen. ”
"It stands to reason that these lands are owned by the government, and depending on who he is, he is not qualified to come to us to stiffen his waist, and it would be good to give a few taels of silver, if you want me to say, just beat them away with a stick, and Brother Wenlong will treat them so favorably."
Tong Shu was very puzzled, but Xue Pan shook his head, "In this world, there are too many things that cannot be done well, this title deed is in our hands, but these people have been planted for so many years, Jinling Mansion doesn't care, depending on who he is, they all feel that this is an ownerless wasteland, we are so loud, they are naturally dissatisfied, but they dare to open their mouths, but they really don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick." ”
Xue Pan said such a sentence indifferently, Tong Shu only felt that his vest was a little sweaty, "In addition to the lion's big mouth, he also made such a fuss for me, but I really think that I am easy to talk and can't do any tricks?" ”
After saying this, Xue Pan closed his eyes and said nothing, at this time, Yin Tianzheng stepped forward, leaned on the side of Xue Pan's carriage and said: "Uncle, the Jinling Mansion has been informed, and the head of the government service team will follow immediately." ”
"That's good," Xue Pan closed his eyes and said, "Although we are also people in the officialdom, we are not pro-people officials, so it is not good to do it alone, someone will help you, so as not to be blackmailed." ”
In the middle of the night, the carriage was like a flowing water and the horses were like dragons, and the people were walking like flying, the summer wind was flying, and the flags were rolled up and hunting, and the brightly lit carriages galloped to the west in the night, and so on for half an hour, and finally arrived here.
Xue Pan got out of the carriage, and heard a low cry from somewhere, there were many people around, the night breeze was blowing slowly, but it was a very desolate feeling, Xue Pan shuddered slightly, Zhen'er hurriedly put a cloak on Xue Pan, the purple gold inlaid glass dead air wind lamp was raised high, shining very brightly around Xue Pan, the steward here hurriedly came over to say hello, Xue Pan nodded, "What's the matter?" He came in a hurry, but when he arrived here, he was not in a hurry, and said slowly, "I heard that there are dead people here?" ”
"Yes," the steward's head was full of hot sweat, but he never expected that for the sake of this place, Xue Pan actually came overnight, "When he was about to get off work tonight, he suddenly dug up a corpse from the stone yard, and someone saw it clearly, saying that it was Chen Laosan, Chen Laosan's tenant here, was the first to be unwilling for us to build a port here, and actually died in our stone factory, it can be seen that he was killed by us, his wife and children have arrived, and there was a night in the stone factory, and many people on the side also surrounded this place, we are not allowed to continue to build. ”
It was originally difficult to build a new thing, if according to the standards of later generations, it is now in a state of demolition and reconstruction, and it is very difficult to resettle them and compensate them well, so the people of this era will inevitably learn badly, Xue Pan nodded, "I mean, you all know, you must not do it indiscriminately, have your people done this?" ”
The steward hurriedly cursed and swore, "This is our business, how dare the little one mess around?" Even if this lawsuit is fought to the gods, we will win, since it is a matter of winning, there is no need to make any crooked moves, these mud legs can't live a few days, so naturally they obediently take the uncle's reward and go. The uncle repeatedly told us not to use force, and the people underground would never dare to be so ignorant, ruining the uncle's plan! ”
This person can be sent to build a port from scratch, Xue Pan is still very trusted, so he waved his hand and rolled up his cloak, "In that case, let's go and take a look at the corpse." ”
The steward hurriedly stopped Tong Shu together, "In the middle of the night, what is there to see for the dead?" That thing is not clean, if it collides with Brother Wenlong, it will be a sin. ”
"I have a clear conscience, is it possible that I am still afraid of him colliding?" Xue Pan was stupid and bold, he sneered slightly, did not stop, just continued to move forward, "I still wish he could recover his soul in a moment, so that I can tell me who killed him." ”
Xue Pan was so resolute, and the rest of the people couldn't, so they had to escort Xue Pan all the way to the stone factory, only to see that this place was crowded with people, all of them were people who looked like farmers in short shirts, most of the farmers had a look of grief and indignation on their faces, the big guy surrounded a corpse covered with a white cloth, and there was a woman with messy hair kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, and two children who were kneeling in a daze, Yin Tianzheng and others lined everyone up, and made a vacant seat for Xue Pan, who was originally very sad, saw Xue Pan and others coming, Suddenly it seemed that anger rose again, "These are the people!" Someone in the crowd was shouting, "Killed Chen Laosan!" ”
"Yes, Chen Laosan will not be blind to death!"
"How do orphans and widows live? It's all these thieves! ”
"Arrest them! Tell them to give Chen Laosan his life! ”
"Yes," someone hurriedly chimed in, "one life for another!" It's fair! ”
