The well-dressed merchant was furious when he heard this, who is this who is raising the price with me!

He turned his head and saw that it was Mu Mu, the leader of the squadron of the Liuqiu Guards!

The two dealt with each other because the squadron leader Mu Mu had ordered bricks and tiles from him...... A smile immediately appeared on his face and he said, "Captain Mu...... Labor is still needed in the barracks? ”

Squadron Leader Mu Mu nodded, still calmly speaking, "There are still some projects left in the barracks...... Lao Gui, don't forget how you started back then, you must have the original intention, don't exploit others too ruthlessly! ”

Lao Gui was originally an ordinary bricklayer, who could fire bricks and tiles, and also did the work of a plasterer. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He was doing odd jobs in Jinan City, and his life will be passable.

Later, he saw that the craftsmen of Liuqiu had built a brick kiln, and the appearance was a little strange, it was actually a long dragon, and there was no grass and trees, it was fired with charcoal, which saved a lot of money for burning materials and labor, not to mention the labor cost, and there was still a lot of production.

So he built it as it was, and at first he didn't have much money, but with the help of a few friends, he built a small one.

At that time, the charcoal and labor were not expensive, and after the Liuqiu Guards came here, they seemed to have a great demand for bricks and tiles, and basically they bought as much as he could produce, so after two years of use, this guy became rich.

Later, the cost of coal and labor rose, this guy was very ghostly, he found that the brick kiln of Liuqiu began to use the stone-like things picked out of the coal to burn the kiln, and that basically did not cost money, I heard that the mine was originally to hire someone to pick out and throw away, so he also did the same.

Because of his small size, he even came here to build a brick kiln, because a carboniferous mine was opened nearby.

But after the labor cost rose, he couldn't learn the brick kiln of Liuqiu.

The Liuqiu craftsmen brought in a kind of big guy that emitted white smoke and rumbled from time to time, and it could easily do the work of dozens of people...... What to mix mud and stamping, and even use a long belt to transport mud embryos!

There are not a few artificial additives, and the output of bricks and tiles has increased several times, and the price of bricks and tiles has been much cheaper for a while!

This is of course one of the reasons why he moved his brick kiln.

Later, he learned that the big guy was called the pot camel steam power engine, and he heard that it had the strength of thirty horses!

He also inquired about the price in private, and was taken aback at that time, not only did it cost thirty horses, but it would not be available until a long time later......

So move a little farther, and the labor cost will definitely be reduced!

Sure enough, a lot of Liuqiu coins were saved in all aspects, especially the Liuqiu Guards actually built a logistics base near him, and he made a fortune again.

The Wandering Guards only buy the cheapest goods, no matter where they come from.

Although they have a brick kiln in Jinan City, the transportation cost is much more expensive than themselves!

However, slowly, with the development and construction of this place, the labor cost here is also high...... Of course, success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He, and it is the begging people who raise the price of labor!

If you want to make more money, you have to use more labor, and there is no other way, so he doesn't know how happy he is to meet five people who can be used as laborers at once...... Those people looked like mountain people, and the wages he gave were about the same as their own wages back then, a lot!

However, he didn't expect Squadron Leader Mu Mu to appear magically, what else could he say...... People still give the normal price, and they are not against themselves, but they are right, what else dare he say?!

Squadron Leader Mu Mu also said to him at the time: "I suffered back then, don't let others take turns to go through it again, besides, if you want to get wealth, why do you always stare at those Xu artificial money?!" ”

Lao Gui actually wants to say, are there still people in the world who dislike the lack of money? Is there anyone who doesn't want labor money to be cheaper?!

Of course, he couldn't say it, it wasn't that he was afraid that Squadron Leader Mu Mu would beat him, because the Liuqiu people, especially the Liuqiu Guards, hired laborers, were all highly paid...... This really annoyed him, but he had to follow up, otherwise, all his laborers would have gone to work with them!

The workshop set up by the Liuqiu people is so infuriating that it seems that as many people come to work, they can accept it.

Lao Gui put on a smile again, and said curtly: "That's, that's ......"

Then he turned around and walked away...... He had seen that the Liuqiu craftsmen would mix the yellow clay with the charcoal foam, and then shake it with the water, either into small balls or press it into a honeycomb shape, and it was quite easy to burn.

This must be another good business...... The charcoal foam doesn't need money, and the yellow mud doesn't need money, but the labor does, he gritted his teeth and swore that he had to find cheaper labor!

But then he thought about it, as long as the people could get there, the labor there would not be cheap for long...... Thinking of this, his waist was a little bent, and the clothes on his body seemed to be not glamorous.

The descendants of the five mountains had been watching the merchant leave in amazement, and then turned to Squadron Leader Mu Mu together, still maintaining a stunned expression.

Squadron Leader Mu Mu is not tall, but his military uniform is straight, especially the two golden beans on his shoulders are particularly shiny in the sun.

He still said calmly: "The five of you need to dig the foundation trench of the target wall and the stable for the base within three days, as long as the workload is completed, I will pay you the salary you have agreed, and if you exceed the quota, there will be a reward......

The five posterior trees in the mountains nodded.

Later, they stayed to do odd jobs, and after accumulating some money, they not only brought out the whole mountain nest, but also choked the old nobleman...... Because they learned from him, and they also made briquettes and honeycomb coal!

Their days are getting better and better.

Fortunately, there is a large demand for this thing, and I can't see how much profit I have lost for a while, but at least the coal foam has begun to be bought with money...... He hated them so much that he might as well hire them at a high price and kick them back into the ravine, not letting them fight for his business.

Later, there were still residents of the mountains who came out...... Of course, there are also people who don't come out, they make a living by selling some mountain goods, they just like to live in the mountains, but life is much better than before.

Since then, I have never heard of the legend that there are still people who can't eat salt......

Squadron Leader Mu Mu summed up this to his companions: "It is true that expropriation will make the people poor, but it is not the only reason, I think the more important reason is whether the people have the ability and power to earn a living freely, and whether they will receive a fair reward in accordance with their status!"

Do you still remember a utopian country mentioned by Lord Wu's family?

He said that in the past, people there were not allowed to do business or go out to work, and as a result, poverty was everywhere...... Later, people there were allowed to do business and work outside the home...... Although people there pay about 50 percent of the tax on goods, poverty has also been greatly reduced......"

The words of Squadron Leader Mu Mu and Squadron Leader Xiao Xiang made everyone fall into deep thought, and it sounded like they did have their own reasons.

Captain Bao Wei added: "Zhang Island Master said that the tax is called indirect tax......

Squadron Leader Wu Di also added: "Don't forget, we still have technology, more food, more goods, and less manpower, so it's difficult for the people under our rule to be poor, right?" And don't forget, how do you count as a natural lazy person? And how do you count people who are not lucky by nature? ”

Everyone laughed, and Squadron Leader Xiao Xiang said proudly: "There is no need to mention such an extreme personal incident...... We're talking about the people, but it's hard to live in poverty under our rule! ”

Captain Bao Wei later simply said: "Forget it, we just need to think about how to fight the Tatars, such a question, write a letter to Zhang Islander, he can teach us anything!" ”

The crowd thought so.
