The struggle of the reborn prince

In the early morning of the next day, the stewards in the mansion led their teams to set off, busy to do the things the prince told them. They were all full of confidence. Now as long as they have money, there is nothing that cannot be done. , things are much easier to handle.

"Boss, which Zhuangzi should we go to first?" After leaving the mansion, the driver asked Zheng Fu through the curtain.

"Well, let's go to Dachen Village first. The people there are poor and have been sad for years. If we go to send money, we will definitely recruit people in the morning!" Zheng Fu patted the bags of copper coins sitting under his buttocks and said with a smile, He didn't believe that if a lot of copper coins were thrown out, no one would come to work.

"Yes, the chief steward is kind and considerate of the servants. Yesterday the mansion gave out benefits. I took back ten catties of pork, five feet of silk cloth, and those large strings of copper coins. My wife couldn't keep her mouth shut for joy when she saw it. I haven't slept all night, and I, Wang Laoqi, have never felt such a hard waist in all these years!"

"Haha, I haven't slept all night, you two are very energetic, you have eaten too much pork!" Zheng Fu said with a big smile, he was in such a rare mood today that he made a joke with the servants.

"Boss... Where are you thinking, I brought back the things, the lady insisted on cooking the meat overnight, and even used those few feet of silk to drive out new clothes for the girl!" Wang Laoqi blushed and said with a thick neck distinguish.

"Ouch..." the chief steward suddenly exclaimed, the car suddenly shook, and he hit his head on the roof of the carport unprepared, "Wang Laoqi, even if the master is wrong, you can't put the car into the pit." Hurry up!"

"The big manager, the small one didn't do it on purpose, it's just that there are pits everywhere on the road, and I can't avoid them even if I want to!"

"Forget it, drive well!" Zheng Fu knew that the coachman was telling the truth, but the car was full of copper coins, and he couldn't rest assured when he got out of the car. Looking at the guards on horseback, he felt envious. It is so difficult to walk in the freezing winter, if it rains in the spring, the car will not be able to move, he can't help but sigh the prince's foresight.

In the early morning, after Zhao Tama squatted and practiced the boxing that Meng Tao taught, he went into the small study after returning, and even ate breakfast in the study.As soon as Jian Xi came in, he saw that the room was in a mess, the bowls and chopsticks were still on the desk, the prince was sitting on the floor flipping through books, and there was a low stool next to the bookshelf in the corner, it seemed that the books had just been taken from the bookshelf down.

"When did the second master change his taste?" Jianxi clearly remembered that the bookshelf was full of miscellaneous books that the prince was not interested in, and they had been placed there untouched since they were bought.

"Second Lord, don't sit on the ground, the official saw it and told you the rules!" Jianxi stepped forward and pulled the prince up, and asked a small yellow door who followed to clean up the table. He knelt down and tried to put away the books on the ground. rise.

"Don't move, these books are what I want to read, don't mess them up!" Zhao Tang sat down again, put a bookmark between the pages of the book, and then asked Jianxi to move the book to the desk.

"Second Master, haven't you never read these books? Why did you find them all today?" Jian Xi wiped the table and arranged the books one by one and asked. ", "Baijiu Prescriptions", "Four Seasons Liquor Medicine", "Secret Repair and Brewing Prescriptions" and other books about wine making.

"When the book is in use, you will hate less!" Zhao Tun sighed, and began to bury his head in the book again. After reading for a while, he suddenly asked: "Jianxi, can you make wine? By the way, your family makes coffins, how could you?" Make wine!"

"Second Master, are you looking for a way to make wine by flipping through the book? Although I don't know how to make wine, I know who knows it. As long as Second Master asks me to eat boiled mutton again, I will tell you!" Guan Zi said.

"Oh, you've learned how to make conditions with me. I'll give you a chopping firewood and stewing meat today!" Zhao Tun kicked Jianxi and said.

"Hee hee, how could the second master be willing to beat me!" Jianxi said with a smile while avoiding the prince's 'shadowless feet', "Second master, what do you think the old Duke did in the past? He opened a wine shop to make wine. Now who doesn't know the 'Kunyi wine' of the Duke's family, all the stewards in our family are sent by the Duke's mansion, there must be someone who knows how to make wine!"

"Oh, I'm so confused, I'm begging for food everywhere with a golden rice bowl in my hand!" Zhao Tun said with a sigh as he threw the book on the table.

"Second Master is not confused, you are a fan of the authorities, and I am just a bystander!" Jian Xi scratched his head and said.

"Has the chief executive gone out?" Zhao Tong asked.

"I went out. I packed a large cart of copper plates and took six nursing homes to Dachen village. I'm sure I can recruit many people back today!" Jianxi hurriedly reported.

"Not necessarily. If he goes to our old Zhuangzi today, he may be able to recruit people back. If he goes there, I'm afraid that this day will be in vain. Now I'm afraid that people from the old Zhuangzi will not dare to come!" Zhao Tong frowned. Said leisurely.

"Second Master, no? I don't believe that no one wants the jingling string of money!"

"Don't believe it?! Think about it, if a tall and strong man sees you hitting you once, and suddenly one day, that person sticks his butt and asks you to kick him twice, what would you think? Do you dare to kick him?"

"I... I don't dare, I'm afraid that after kicking him, one day he'll kick him back twice as much!" Jian Xi said shyly after thinking for a while.

"That's enough. The people in Dachen Village have been bullied by that bastard Zhang Yan. They will give money as soon as they go. If they dare to ask for it, I'm afraid they will think that money is biting their hands!"

"Second Master, what should we do then?"

"What should I do? Cold salad, you need to use your brain to do things, you go and find Zhao Ren and the others!" Zhao Tun said, crossing his legs.

······

This day, the summer courtyard was very lively, with laughter from time to time. People passing by heard it as if they were singing an opera, but they didn’t feel like it. The second master never had such a hobby. In the afternoon, some sharp-eyed people saw that Xiayuan A dozen or so beggars in ragged clothes and unkempt faces came out of the hospital. He hurriedly reported to the third steward, but the guards searched for a long time but did not find any trace of the beggars.

When it was getting dark, someone saw the chief steward come back with a droopy head, and then went to the inner courtyard. How did the bags of money get out and how did they get back, no one was recruited.Soon there was news from the inner courtyard that the second master didn't see him, so he only asked him to go back and have a good rest...

At dawn the next day, Zheng Fu got up early and strolled in the yard. Last night he almost stayed up all night, his eyes were red, and there was a big blister on the corner of his mouth.As he walked, he sighed that he had lost his face yesterday. He thought that he would bring cash to recruit people, and he would pay the money before he did the work. Those who couldn’t make it past the previous year were still chasing after them, rushing to sign up, but... ·

"Ah!" The chief steward sighed again. He found the head of the village and asked him to hold a gong and shout in the village for a long time. Only an old man with a walking stick came over to have a look, and went back without asking any questions. After being cold for a day and drinking a lot of northwest wind, he didn't recruit anyone back. He was worrying about whether to go or not to go today.

"Senior Manager, Senior Manager..." At this moment, Menzi ran over in a panic and shouted.

"What are you panicking about? You've forgotten all the rules!" Zheng Fu was angry and reprimanded him with a stern face.

"Yes, yes, Chief Steward, someone from outside the door has signed up!" Menzi swallowed and replied.

"What name should you apply for?" Zheng Fu asked angrily, he was worried about the application, and he got angry when he heard the application.

"Sign up to build the dam. There are hundreds of people outside the door. There are still people walking this way. Do you want it or not?"

"Yes, why not? Hurry up and tell the stewards to prepare the money, and I'll go right away!" Zheng Fu suddenly felt that the sky was really falling, and that whatever was lacking would come!

When Zheng Fu arrived at the gate and saw the crowd, he was overjoyed, "Uncle Zheng, are you looking for someone to repair the dam and pay a month's wages first?" A man stepped forward and asked.

"Yes, not only pay one month's wages in advance, but also take care of two meals a day after the start of work, but only recruit tenants in our mansion, which village are you from?" Zheng Fu replied.

"Uncle Zheng, I am from Dazhao Village. You are not coaxing us. The money is paid first, so do I have to pay interest? In the past, all work was done for free, and you had to bring your own tools and dry food!" The man carefully Said.

"No, as long as you sign and draw a deposit, you can get three pennies of money now and go home for the New Year first, and go to the construction site to listen to the work arrangements after the year. You will never charge interest. The future wages will be calculated every month, and you will not be in arrears! "

"Old Zhang, don't ask this or that. I heard that 200 people will be recruited. If you don't go, I will go and don't get in the way. I believe the mansion will not lie to us!" At this moment, a person came and pulled the man aside. Squeeze over and say.

"This is the palace of the prince, so we won't rely on our few dollars. The prince is a good man. My second son even went to the mansion to watch a play. Before leaving, the prince even made him some snacks. I will go too!"

"Brother Lei, don't pull me. I'm just asking. I want to sign up too. If I'm idle at home, I'm idle!"

"Hurry up in front, there are people coming from behind, we won't be able to report if there are too many people!"

·····

"Everyone give way, don't mess around, stand up and come one by one!" At this time, more than a dozen people came out of the mansion carrying several large baskets of shiny copper coins, and the guards opened the place and yelled loudly.

"Fellow folks, if you haven't eaten in the morning, you can come here to have a bowl of bone soup and two biscuits!" While speaking, a few servants came out carrying the food, and set up two tables and shouted .

When the few people in the front reported their names and really got the money, and then sat at the table to drink soup and eat cooking cakes, the people behind believed it and stepped forward to sign up, "Second brother, don't eat, hurry back The family called the third child and told him to come quickly, maybe he can still catch up!"

"Brother Huzi, when you go back to the village, call for the boss of my uncle's family to come too. His family can't even open the pot!"

"Okay, okay, I'll call you when I pass by Dachen Village, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with the few recruits!"

"They deserve it. I went to their village to recruit people yesterday, but no one dared to come!"

"They made that bastard Zhang Yan miserable, and I can't believe the good things!"

"If those little beggars hadn't mentioned it yesterday, we wouldn't have known about it, and they would have taken the good things." People were discussing, those who received the money first were so happy that they couldn't hold their tongues, and those who came later might have recruited enough, or It was my turn to send out the money, and I hurriedly urged, and after hearing the news, people kept coming from behind...
