Chapter 301

This matter will not be done for a while, and it needs to be done slowly. The first step is to dry the seagoing ship, and then start the workshop after making money.

The Gu and Li families have no money left, and they can’t get it out. The annual supply to the Northwest is a large amount, and the two families have invested all their energy. The Night King and the powerful family know this very well, and the accounts cannot be falsified.

Now there is a shortage of money everywhere in Fandi, and the people need to recuperate. Next, we need to reduce or exempt the farmers' taxes again, so that the people can have enough food, so that Fandi can be more stable.

Without taxation, there is no money. Construction needs money, and there is an increase in military strength to protect itself. Everything needs money.

It snowed in a blink of an eye, and everyone had changed into thicker woolen clothes.

"Grandpa, I'll send you to Zhuangzi to recuperate and soak in the hot spring."

It was too cold, and several elderly people in the family fell ill one after another, and the government doctor took care of them every day for half a month before they recovered.

"also."

Grandpa Gu thought that the old brothers were suffering from various disasters and needed to cultivate themselves, so he agreed.

"Go, I'll take care of the house and let the government doctor follow."

"to make."

Li Yu started to make arrangements to send some old people to Xinghualin's Zhuangzi early in the morning to recuperate. There is a hot spring there, and the bubbles are very comfortable in winter.

Early the next morning, the children of the Gu family personally escorted the carriage to Zhuangzi to settle down.

After more than half a year of revisions on Zhuangzi, it is a very beautiful small farmyard, with pavilions, pavilions, flowers, trees and plants, and the design is very elegant, very suitable for vacation and self-cultivation.

"Brother Xin, pay attention to safety on the road, Wan'er takes good care of grandparents and aunts."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry."

This time Brother Xin escorted everyone, and Wan'er also accompanied her. She has been busy for a year. Li Yu feels sorry for her worrying about her family. There are only two months left at the end of the year. Let him go to the hot spring to rest and take care of her by the way. Good old man.

After sending the old man away, Li Yu still has a lot of things to do. Gu Lei is busy with the small town. It's too cold to start construction, but there are plenty of jobs that don't require civil engineering.

Li Yu has to count the profits of the family property, as well as his own dowry and the property of the mansion. At the end of the year, he has to settle accounts, and he has to meet with the steward to discuss next year's arrangements.

"It's snowing this year, and the snow is quite thick. I'm worried that next year there will be a lot of rain, and this year's grain will not be sold. Let's keep it for ourselves, and the excess will not be wasted when it is turned into wine."

Li Yu sat in the main hall, met with all the stewards, and made arrangements one by one.

"Yes, young mistress, I bought a few Zhuangzi in the summer, and I need people there, do you want to send some experienced people over there?"

"You look at promoting the second steward to work in the past, and lift up the young and experienced to be the second steward. Now our family is short of people, and the more you work, the better you will be. Otherwise, you will not be able to fall."

"Yes, then I'll sort it out and report back to you."

"can."

"The medicinal materials for spring should be sent back in time. When the price of good medicinal materials is right, we will take them. There is only enough for our family, and there is no reason why we can't use them up. There is also a shortage of medicinal materials in the northwest. Even if you buy them boldly, the price must be right. Our hands Money is limited."

"Yes."

"Next year, there will be several civilian places in the academy. I want three back. The grandson of Guanshi Sun will occupy one, and the other two will be given to Guanshi Yang's grandson. In the end, the uncle said that he will go to Guanshi Ma. He has been outside a lot these years. Hard work, our family has not forgotten everyone’s contributions, and those who are not ranked still have a chance to turn over the new year, don’t worry, come and talk to me if you want, we can discuss it.”

At the end of the year, it is time to judge meritorious deeds and punishments, and you should also give chances to the managers.

What is the rarest thing to do in the future is to change the family, who wants to be a slave for the rest of his life, and he is not lacking in thoughtfulness.

A servant of three generations can be a good citizen, but Guanshi himself is the fourth generation, so he naturally hopes to become a scholar, so Li Yu arranged for his grandson to study in the academy and enter as a commoner.

Even if such an opportunity is not something he can get by himself, he is naturally very happy.

The stewards immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed, expressing their gratitude.

"The slave thanked the master for his great kindness..."

"Get up, I also hope that more and more talents can be used by our family. If your children are promising and capable, I can also consider arranging official positions for you. The prerequisite is to follow the right path."

"Yes, we have been the Gu family for several generations, and the golden nest and the silver nest are not as strong as our own kennel."

Steward Sun's words are rough and reasonable, they will not redeem themselves to be good citizens, the children and grandchildren redeem their lives for the sake of their future, and for studying to get an official position.

It's really troublesome for the whole family to be free. It's hard to survive in the troubled times these days. The Gu family has deep roots, has military achievements, family traditions and connections, and relying on the connections of the Gu family, children and grandchildren can be officials even if they are famous.

This is the path taken by the servants of the aristocratic family, taking advantage of the east wind to ascend to Qingyun.

It is much more stable than the humble scholars, and there is a background to take care of them, and others dare not bully them easily. If you are an official, you will have a future if you have fame.

But Guanshi Sun and others have been servants of the Gu family for several generations. In fact, the Gu family is also their root, and they will never leave unless they have to. Even if their descendants have a future, they still have to rely on the Gu family, and they still belong to the Gu family.

"I went to study hard, seize the opportunity, and fight for my own future."

"Yes."

Li Yu made new deployments and arrangements, and bought a lot of land and shops in the Jiangnan area to prepare for the future.

The south of the Yangtze River is rich in food, and it is impossible for the Night King not to see it. It is necessary to deploy in advance, and the same is true for the Shu land.

All these strategies require a forward-looking clan wife to arrange, and it also leaves behind for the family.

The Gu family came out of the capital and was not defeated. It was the old lady who fought bravely when she was young and had profitable industries in several places, which supported the Gu family from falling down.

Now it's Li Yu who makes the plans, and it's passed down from generation to generation.

After a busy morning, I was relieved to have a sip of tea.

When Gu Lei came back, Li Yu got up to greet him.

"Come back so early, is there something to order?"

"I have an appointment for dinner in the afternoon. Come back early to have lunch with you. Are you tired? There are many things to do at the end of the year. If you can't finish it, wait for me to come back and do it together. Don't tire yourself out."

Gu Lei touched her little face distressedly.

"It's okay, I can't wait for you. I met with the steward today and arranged a few major events. I will go to buy Zhuangzi and open stores in key locations such as Jiangnan, Sichuan, and Guangdong and Fujian. We have to pave our own way so as not to be controlled by others. .”

"Okay, you can't go wrong with the arrangement."

"Our workshop will increase its efforts to make dyes this year. Last year, small troubles accounted for one-third of the profit. It is really a lot of money. With the help of His Highness, we will catch up on dyes in the past two years. Catch it, get all the recipes out, and try to gain the upper hand."

Li Yu reacted quickly, led the family forward bravely, had a good strategy and a long-term perspective, and looked at problems in the long run. The family property has regained its vitality and has a trend of prosperity.

Now the Gu family and clan admire her a hundred times, and everyone is united in their hearts, and no one dares to disobey her.

The united Gu family showed its due strength, and let the family see Li Yu's ability.
