Chapter 116: Inferior Development Cannot Be Reckless
about the house fund"Are you saying… interest"Li Yuyao is intelligent and perceptive, understanding things quickly."That's right, interest is the most important source of income for real estate proje...The city wall repairs aren't finished yet, and nine kilns have already produced a considerable number of bricks. But the lord wants to build twenty more
If the plan to repair the city wall falls through, these brick kilns will be out of business!
"My lord, think carefully!"
Huang Feng hurriedly advised.
Yang Lin thought for a moment: "Then I'll make it a round number, build twenty more, and together with the existing ones, make it thirty."
Song Qian's body swayed, her eyes wide with disbelief. Huang Feng was equally astonished.
How can this lord be so stubborn
The second thing is to recruit workers.
Before Huang Feng could open his mouth, Yang Lin continued, "Ordinary workers earn 150 wen per month, skilled workers earn 300 wen. After working for six months, they will get an increase of 50 to 100 wen."
"Your daily work should not exceed six hours, with one day off per month. If your work is good or you make outstanding contributions, you can also appropriately increase your wages."
In addition, a guard unit of ten men was established for each kiln to be responsible for security work.
Huang Feng's eyes were wide open.
If one kiln requires ten people, wouldn't thirty kilns require three hundred people
Is it just a kiln Does it need so many people to defend it
Before Huang Feng could speak, Yang Lin said beforehand: “I know you don’t understand, and you don’t need to understand now. Just do what I say.”
Okay.
Huang Feng helplessly nodded.
After Song Qian and Huang Feng left, Li Yuyao couldn't help but ask: "You want so many bricks, don't you want to build a house Are you going to do what you said before... real estate"
Yang Lin smiled and gave a thumbs-up.
"You're still clever, my wife. Developing real estate is a good idea. The countryside is our foundation, and now the roots are down. If we want to branch out, the county town is the first leaf. We have unique advantages here; it would be a shame not to develop."
Li Yuxi nodded.
Yang Lin has already told her about the real estate profit model.
She believes that, following Yang Lin's "modus operandi," it's impossible not to make a profit.
Once you understand this point, then buying kilns, building kilns, and monopolizing clay resources and land in the city will also become clear.
"What about the guard force Just some brick makers, really. Do they *really* need three hundred men"
Yang Lin smiled and said, "Who said the guard unit is for brick kilns"
Li Yuxiang was taken aback: "That bodyguard team is..."
"Protect all of our industries!"
Yang Lin said in a loud voice.
The power of the government, in the end, is only external. How long it can be relied upon remains to be seen. Therefore, we must have our own strength!
"Strength lies in only two things, silver and people!"
“We now have silver, but the manpower is far from enough.”
Li Yuyao suddenly understood, Yang Lin was building his own private army!
And using thirty brick kilns to hire workers could also effectively conceal his intentions.
"Do you want to rebel"
Unattended, Li Yuyáo directly asked the question she had always wanted to ask.
"Rebellion"
Yang Lin heard the word, but he just smiled and shook his head.
“Of course not, I only do this to avoid being bullied.”
Li Yitong was slightly disappointed.
Yang Lin was unwilling, and she didn't want to continue delving into this topic further.
The next day, under Huang Feng's command, the nine brick kilns began to resume production.
When the people heard that the wages were 150 wen a month, with one day off every month, and a raise in six months... they all rushed to apply. Nine brick kilns, along with a 300-man guard force, and the manpower needed to build twenty new brick kilns, were all fully staffed in less than half a day.
The messenger who returned to the mountain village had also arrived in the county town with his sisters from home.
Besides Xiaoqi, Xiaoba, and Xiaojiu, the eldest sister is responsible for running the tofu shop, the second sister stays home to look after things, so only the third sister, fourth younger sister, fifth younger sister, and sixth younger sister came.
When the four of them learned that the women were here to take over the business and become the shopkeepers, they couldn't help but feel a mixture of excitement and nervousness.
Yang Lin saw them and, after inquiring about the village's situation, began introducing them to the local circumstances.
There are still twelve shops and over three thousand mu of farmland, but no one takes care of them.
"These are the land deeds, as well as the tenant lists and account books."
These are twelve shops, among which there are two rice shops, two cloth stores, two herbal medicine shops, three restaurants, one inn, and two general stores.
"You guys split up."
Four women looked at the pile of things, all stunned.
Especially Wu Mei and Liu Mei, the two sisters were naturally gentle, but now Yang Lin was entrusting such a large business to them. They both worried that they couldn't handle it well.
Li Hongying resolutely spoke up: "I'll take care of these farmland and estates!"
"Good."
Yang Lin nodded in satisfaction.
"If you need anything to manage your land, just speak up."
Of all the businesses, real estate is the most chaotic. In the short term, it's difficult to even get a handle on things, let alone manage them.
Li Hongying, however, said: "Didn't you say that you didn't want to be the local lord Then these fields, instead of being in such a mess now, why don't I just sell them all to you Just like what happens in the village, selling the fields at their original price to the farmers. That way, everything will be solved."
Yang Lin twitched the corner of his mouth.
He still thought Liao Hongying was confident in handling the farmland well.
The only result was that it sold!
However...
Thinking about it carefully, what she said makes a lot of sense.
He doesn't need money now, and it wouldn't be right to compete with the poor for profit. Selling his land would not only relieve pressure on his side but also benefit the people...
"Okay, I'm putting this whole thing in your hands. Do whatever you think is best."
Hearing Yang Lin say this, Wu Mei, who was still struggling with the problem, hurriedly asked: "Should we sell all the shops too"
Yang Lin twitched the corner of his mouth, shaking his head helplessly with a wry smile.
"Sisters, I have called you together to do business, not to sell property!"
Wu Mei and Liu Mei stuck out their tongues.
Si Me opened her mouth and said, "Since it's twelve shops, the three of us can each take four. I'll choose three taverns and that inn."
Saying that, the fourth sister took out three house deeds from it.
There are still grain stores, cloth shops, apothecaries, and general stores.
Wu Mei and Liu Mei were helpless, they could only each choose two things.
As for how to run it, they had no idea.
"Third Sister, I've recruited a 300-man guard unit here. When you're finished handling those land properties, the guard unit will be yours to manage."
Liao Hongying's eyes lit up.
"Okay!"
To lead troops into battle That's her favorite thing!
That's settled then. Yang Lin is getting ready to go back to the village.
The village still has papermaking, steel smelting, and gunpowder waiting for him!
These core technologies are the foundation that allows him to continue developing.
As he said, his hometown is his roots. Although things are developing rapidly right now, it's even more important to stand firm and grow steadily. Don't be hasty!
Perhaps only when gunpowder, cannons, and ironclad warships were invented could we relax a bit. was startled and quickly declined.The rest all waved their hands and had strange expressions.This boss, Yang Lin, is too generous! He just hands out bonuses whenever he feels like it! They all feel l...
