Chapter 241: Do you still need manpower

  Chapter 241 Do you still need manpower?

  Yingqin said: "Yes, Missy, the servants must follow suit."

  Nian Pingping said gratefully: "Thank you, Miss."

  Night, Nangong Anshan entered the space again.

  She went to the system to check, and found that she could grow another herb. She hurriedly exchanged some, and after harvesting the medicinal materials she had planted, she planted new ones before going to sleep.

  The next day, after eating breakfast, Nangong Anshan fried popcorn again, serving as a snack for her wife and family members.

  She gave Nian Pingping a taste, and said with a smile, "Is it delicious?"

  Nian Pingping said anxiously: "It's delicious, very delicious."

  From the moment she entered this house, she felt that everything she experienced was unreal, like a dream.

  The masters don’t have the airs of the masters, and the food they eat is similar to that of the masters, and they are all made of oil.

   There is still a place to live, although it is worse than the prime minister's mansion, but it is much better than her current home.

  The other servants also took good care of her, and didn't bully her just because she was new here.

  Nangong Anshan was about to say something when she heard the report from Dajian that Dugu Huanxu and Lizheng had come.

   When they came to the main room, Nangong Anshan ordered the servants to serve refreshments. After sitting down, she asked doubtfully, "You two, why did you come here together?"

  Li Zheng said: "If there is something, let Mr. Xu talk about it."

  Dugu Huanxu said: "Ashan, one of the purposes of my visit today is to transport the cotton away, and the second purpose is to ask if you still need manpower here?"

Nangong Anshan said: "Manpower is still needed, but I just have to wait for the beginning of spring. I have some money now, and I plan to buy more land and grow some things in the future. Three people who were invited from other villages earlier Hundreds of people, and now only half of them stay here, and the rest I sent them home temporarily."

   After all, both sugar and oil require a lot of raw materials. Although she can always take them out of the space, if she is not at home and goes out to find her father and brother, she cannot give them raw materials for three or four months in advance.

   Another very important point is that in ancient times, the families of ordinary dignitaries had at least a few thousand acres of land, but now she has only a few hundred acres of land, which is really too little.

  In the future, she will open more workshops. Those lands can be used to grow the plants needed in the workshops. In the future, the workshops will also need a lot of manpower.

Dugu Huanxu said: "It turned out to be like this, as long as we can provide them with jobs next year. Ashan, I know it's a bit too much to ask you to help all the time, but I can't think of anyone who can help now. Can you do His Royal Highness Li Wang a favor? ?”

  Nangong Anshan asked: "What's the matter?"

  Dugu Huanxu then told them about their plan to move the Changshui Village near the iron mine.

"That's it. After thinking about it, His Royal Highness Li Wang still thinks that it is best to let the people from Changshui Village move to Liuye Village, so that you can increase your manpower to work for you, and you can also let the people from Changshui Village be able to work together in the future." If you have a job, you can kill two birds with one stone."

   "So you came here because of this incident."

Zhou Lizheng said: "Yes, Mr. Xu came to me early in the morning and asked if our village can accommodate Changshui Village. This is an order from His Royal Highness Li Wang. Naturally, I have no problem, but I am worried that you have ideas, Ashan. "

Nangong Anshan smiled and said: "What can I think? I will definitely obey His Royal Highness Li Wang's orders. Just do what His Highness Li said. It's just that it's winter, and the people in Changshui Village are doing it for Li Wang. The land was sacrificed to move here, so His Royal Highness Li Wang probably will spend a lot of money this time."

   "It's okay." Dugu Huanxu said with a smile: "One day's income from the Yuquan Building under the name of Li Wang's son can arrange them, so don't worry about money."

"makes sense."

"It's just Ah Shan, if they really come here, they will really trouble you. There are a total of 200 people in Changshui Village, a total of 40 households. You only need to provide them with 40 jobs at the beginning of next year. Others If you have more in the future, just watch and give them.”

   "Okay, is there anything else I can do?"

"Yes, in order to allow the people from Changshui Village to move here smoothly, I also hope that you can go to Changshui Village with me, so that the villagers may trust me more and are more willing to move here. Although His Royal Highness Li Wang said, if the people from Changshui Village If people are disobedient, force can be used, but the life of the people is already hard enough, and I don’t want to use force unless it is absolutely necessary, which will hurt the peace.”

   "Of course, you can choose a date, just come and let me know."

   "Then let's talk about it."

Nangong Anshan took the pulse of Dugu Huanxu again, and said: "Most of your poison has been cured, and there is still a small half of the poison left. I will prescribe a new medicine later, once every morning and evening. Remember, Never forget it once."

"it is good."

  Nangong Anshan quickly wrote the prescription and handed the bamboo slips to Dugu Huanxu.

  Dugu Huanxu said again: "Zhou Lizheng, His Royal Highness Li Wang will come to Liuye Village to build wooden houses for the people of Changshui Village in the next few days. It may cause commotion in the village. I will ask you to comfort me when the time comes."

   "If someone asks the reason why people from Changshui Village moved here, just say that you don't know. This is what His Royal Highness Li Wang meant."

   "Because His Royal Highness Li made them sacrifice their homes, and the wooden house is very cold in winter, His Royal Highness Li ordered that charcoal be sent to each of their households."

   "If anyone is not convinced, just go and call the officials to come over and arrest them in the prison."

  Some people in Liuye Village will definitely be very unbalanced.

  I feel that when they came here, they only lived in tents.

  Why can people in Changshui Village build wooden houses by officers and soldiers, and even have charcoal to use in the future.

  Zhou Lizheng said: "I understand, I will definitely do what you say."

  Dugu Huanxu said a few more words, then left Nangong's house, and took the officers and soldiers to survey the terrain, preparing for the officers and soldiers to build wooden houses.

   After he gave orders about the wooden house, he went to transport the cotton away.

  When Dugu Huanxu came, he brought hundreds of soldiers. Although the soldiers did not enter the village, they still attracted the attention of the villagers.

  When the officers and soldiers started to cut down the trees, someone immediately told Zhou Lizheng what they had seen.

  Zhou Lizheng had no choice but to beat the gong to gather all the people in the village in the open space, and make it clear once, lest he explain it over and over again.

When all the villagers arrived, he said loudly: "In a few days, people from another village will move in. Due to the cold weather, there is no way for them to live in tents, and it is too late to build houses. Only build wooden houses for them, so the officers and soldiers will come.”
