    Chapter 125:

    After two days, a large number of people arrived at Xishan.

    At the foot of the Western Mountain, not far from the miners' settlement, simple buildings have risen from the ground. In front of the building is a majestic stone square, with a gilded "Yulinwei Xishan Tuntian Hundred Households" on top.  There are several large character plaques.

    Except for the impressive stone square and plaque, the rest of the place is much shabby.

    There is no other way. After all, it is just a start-up. The imperial edict said that a hundred households' farmhouses should be built, but no money or food was allocated. Now we have to start farming quickly. There is no time to wait for the Ministry of Industry to build a hundred households' farmhouses.

    So, we can only make do with it.

    In the Hundred Household Office, Deputy Hundred Household Zhang Xin had already been waiting with a group of general flag officers, small flag officers, school captains, and warriors, but everyone looked bad.

    It is conceivable that the originally glamorous Imperial Guards were all working in the palace, but unexpectedly they were kicked out of the city and came here to work in the fields. This is simply a crime.

    As soon as Fang Jifan arrived, everyone managed to cheer up. Zhang Xin was a thin-skinned guy, a few years older than Fang Jifan, but his eyes looked a little dull, probably because he was beaten too many times by his father.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????Out of the crowd and said: "I have met the masters of hundreds of families."

    "Very good." Fang Jifan nodded: "Do you understand the errand?"

    Zhang Xin shook his head and said: "Please give me some advice from the adults of hundreds of families. The humble people only know how to farm, but they don't know"

    "You don't even know how to farm?" Fang Jifan bared his teeth and said, "Take the hoe and dig up the land first. We'll talk about the next thing later.'"

    After saying that, he kicked Zhang Xin in the butt as if it were flowing water.

    Zhang Xin staggered, suppressing his blush, and said quietly: "Youhow do you hit someone?"

    Fang Jifan was already sure at this time that the deputy 100 households might have a surname of Wang.

    Fang Jifan was not polite to him, and sneered: "This is a show of force. Who dares to be lazy? I will not only beat people, but also hang them on the neck of a tree. Zhang Xin, you take the lead. Today, I will kill all the people around you."  Let¡¯s turn over the acres of land first.¡±

    Zhang Xin was about to cry but had no tears, but he shook his head with a sad look on his face. Fortunately, there is one good thing about people who have been beaten since childhood, that is, they are very obedient and obedient, so he was busy greeting the wailing captain.  Start working.

    Fang Jifan was much happier. He ordered someone to prepare a deck chair and lay down comfortably on the deck chair. The sun was out today and it was a bit dazzling, so Deng Jian bent over and held an oil umbrella. Fang Jifan lay on the rocking chair and felt in his heart  I can¡¯t help but lament that farming in the countryside is really lonely.

    Wang Jinyuan learned that Fang Jifan was coming and hurried over. He was now full of energy and energy. Now he felt more and more the value of following Fang Jifan. After bowing and bowing, he said: "Young Master"

    "Call Baihu." Fang Jifan was a little sleepy, squinting his eyes and feeling lazy.

    "Yes, Mr. Baihu, the mine is in good order now, but the demand for anthracite coal in the capital has been increasing recently. I'm afraid we need to recruit more manpower to start the mine. Also, sir, do you want to check the accounts?"  , the accounting clerk is ready."

    Fang Jifan slowly shook his hand and said: "You just need to make good arrangements for recruiting people. The account books won't be read. I'll let Manager Yang from my house come and take a look at it."

    Wang Jinyuan smiled: "Okay, okay, one more thing there is a Hu man, he has a ship, which was inspected by Tianjin Guard's sea patrol, and the ship and cargo were detained at Tianjin Guard Ahem  I don¡¯t know where this person heard the news, and learned that Master Baihu¡¯s father works in the Fifth Army Governor¡¯s Mansion and often goes to Tianjin Guards Ahem What the villain means"

    Hearing this, Fang Jifan, who was originally lazy, suddenly turned over and became a little angry.

    Hu people?  Do the Hu people still have sea ships?  This is obviously smuggling. Although the Ming Dynasty's maritime ban is not as strict as before, plus this silk and porcelain, it is famous all over the world and has a reputation far and wide. Because of this, Fang Jifan's local government in Tianjin  Here, I knew to some extent that some merchants from the Western Regions conspired with some inland aristocratic families to smuggle some goods and sail out to sea.

    "Obviously, this Hu man's boat was unfortunately seized by the Tianjin Weihai Road inspection, so he became anxious and went ashore to try his best to open up the joints.

    These days, Fang Jinglong went to Tianjin Guard every now and then, just to rectify the military affairs of Tianjin Guard. What qualifications did the Hu people have to go to Uncle Nan He? Most of them found out that Uncle Nan He had a cheating son, and it just so happened that Wang Jinyuan  He worked under Fang Jifan again, so he tried his best toThe method was used to win over Wang Jinyuan, and then use him to open up Fang Jifan's joints.

    Smuggling is actually nothing more than that. The question is, is our successor the kind of person who bends the law for personal gain and cheats his own father because of you, a bastard?  If the censor knew about this matter, what would happen?

    Fang Jifan, who knew the stakes here, immediately shouted angrily and righteously: "Wang Jinyuan, who do you think this young master is? I am now a member of the Yulin Guards, and I have the emperor's favor. After being loyal and good, such a shameful thing  , can you also say it?"

    Wang Jinyuan, who was still smiling at first, was frightened by Fang Jifan's sudden anger and his face turned pale. He said hurriedly and respectfully: "Young man, I'm just asking for you. I'm just asking for you. Don't mind, young master. This bastard is really annoying.  It is pestering the villain, and the villain is helpless, butbutthis person saidthis person said that he heard that the young master was ill, and they came to my country this time, and they just happened to bring a cure for all diseases.  I really want to offer the ginseng from the Western Regions that is ten thousand years old to the young master In addition to this, there are also some treasures that I also want to let Lord Baihu take care of."

    Thousands of years old ginseng?

    Fang Jifan¡¯s jaw almost dropped. Does ginseng still grow in the Western Regions?

    Never heard of it.

    Nine times out of ten, he is just a liar. He came here with who knows what to fool him. He really thinks he is a prodigal without any knowledge!

    Fang Jifan sneered in his heart, but showed no expression on his face: "This is a great thing to do, Ten Thousand Years Ginseng. I don't have much education, but I really want to see it. Ask him to come."

    snort!  If he comes, he will have to break his legs. It¡¯s just a crime, but he actually insults the IQ of our successor!

    Fang Jifan was quite comfortable here, but the feeling of the people working hard on the other side was not so good. Zhang Xin was an honest man. He carried a hoe and led a group of captains to start digging the ground. In just a moment, a group of people  Already out of breath.

    Because the Habayashi Guards are members of the Royal Guards, they wear clothes similar to flying fish suits, and they are made of fine materials such as silk. But now, they are covered in mud, and all of them looked heroic just now.  Man, now he is unkempt.

    Zhang Xin's palms were worn out, and he felt like he couldn't straighten his waist. When he looked up again, he saw that Fang Jifan had sat upright on the recliner and was drinking tea comfortably. Many captains around him were complaining in low voices, but Zhang Xin  I don't dare to complain, I just want to cry.

    At noon, because there is no special canteen in the Tuntian Hundred Household Station, we can only make do with the miners next door.

    People who are full of dirt, meet people who are full of cinders, they stare with big eyes and small eyes, but they feast in silence.

    Guys like Zhang Xin are either noble sons or sons of good families. Their families are very well-off. They are usually pampered and pampered. They serve as servants in the pro-army and cannot suffer much. At the end of the day, they are really tired and hungry. Many of them are even tired.  Their hands were soft and their feet were hot, and the miners' food was extremely greasy. After all, it took a lot of physical strength, so Wang Jinyuan didn't dare to neglect anything. The unplucked pork was cooked in one pot, and the miners ate deliciously. As for Zhang Xin, looking at it  After looking at the hair on the meat for a long time, I finally decided to just eat the rice.

    The Hu man arrived, and when he heard that Wang Jinyuan had opened the joint, he was immediately happy.

    A full cargo ship was detained, and all his wealth was there. Originally, he was cooperating with a large family in Shandong. The Shandong side was responsible for stocking goods, and he was responsible for leading the ship for trafficking. This Ming Dynasty silk  As long as the porcelain and porcelain are shipped, it will be a huge profit.

    However, although this business was a huge profit, the risk was extremely high. The ship was intercepted by sea patrol, and he was anxious. However, Shandong immediately cut off contact with him. After all, it involved the national policy of maritime ban, which was a serious crime of beheading.  In order not to implicate themselves, they will fly separately when disaster strikes.

    Hu Shangnai was a big cannibal and was unfamiliar with the place he came here. Finally, he bribed the envoy team of Zhenla Kingdom and got the status of an envoy attach¨¦ before landing ashore, in order to find ways to smoothen the relationship.

    He knew some Chinese, but he could not find a serious career path. In the end, Fang Jifan, who seemed to be friendly with businessmen, became his only life-saving straw.

    Fang Jifan looked at this bearded man-eater with a tall nose, black eyes, and a cloth bag wrapped around his head, as if he had been beaten and swollen.

    When the barbarian came to Fang Jifan, he quickly saluted and said, "Faisal ibn Abdul has seen"

    His Chinese was very jerky. Before he could finish speaking, Fang Jifan pressed his hands impatiently and said, "I'll call you Tip. I feel uncomfortable hearing your long name."

    The tip was a little confused, but it was obvious that he came well prepared. This time he came to ask for help, so he reluctantly smiled and said: "Thank you Fang Baihu for giving the villain a Chinese name. This time, the villain traveled across the ocean.  The reasonis for the sake of friendship with the big man. The villain has heard of Fang Baihu's name for a long time, so he asked Fang Baihu to accept some gifts."

    ¡°As he spoke, he first took out a huge bead, as if offering a treasure, and his entourage also took out several square blankets and the like.

    Fang Jifan just took one look at it and immediately lost interest. These things were indeed rare in the Ming Dynasty. For example, those beads were obviously glass beads. Europeans had already taken the lead in making them. They were not worth a few dollars, so they just fooled them.  The Ming Dynasty has not yet mastered the technology of making glass. Just like the silk and porcelain of the Ming Dynasty, they are not particularly valuable in the Ming Dynasty, but if they are placed overseas, their value will increase countless times.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)For the sake of friendship with the big man, the villain has heard about Fang Baihu's name for a long time, and asked Fang Baihu to accept some gifts.  "
