Chapter 76 Liu Ruohan's financial power
The winding river is still the same as before, but it is no longer dizzy. Zhang Yang stands in the bow of the ship and commands from time to time.
"Turn left on the front waterway!"
"The reeds in front go straight, interspersed!"
It seems that this place has become his own back garden. Zhang Yang is more and more impressed with his memory. When he was in school, he always couldn't remember foreign words. It seems that he didn't force his potential out. Now, without looking at the waterway map, the route has been engraved in his mind.
Returning to the heart is like an arrow, but the boat is as slow as a snail, because the wind is not strong.
What you need most for a sailboat is the wind. No matter what the wind is, the east wind, the south wind, the west wind and the north wind, as long as there is wind, you can sail. You can sail with the wind or against the wind. At worst, you can grab the wind and sail the boat. However, if there is no wind, then stare.
Now, if the sailboat were a horse, he would have smashed its buttocks with a whip, but now the wind is not strong, and no matter how loud the whip is, it won't hurt it.
The steam engine must be pounded out. Such an idea came up in Zhang Yang's mind.
Even Zhang Yang himself can't explain why he is confused and uneasy now. Is he distracted by the upcoming ironmaking plan or excited about seeing Ruo Han?
I don't know how Ruohan is doing on the island. After all, the island is not as good as at home. I don't know if she is used to it?
At dusk, the ship finally approached the base.
In order to prevent misunderstanding by the watchtower on the island, when it was approaching, a flag was raised on the top of the mast: a red flag with a huge word "Zhang" on the flag, which can be seen clearly three miles away.
This is a pre-agreed code, which means that it is your own family, so that the last event will not occur again.
The identification of the enemy and us is very important in the modern battlefield, and the ancient battlefield is no exception. The day is a flag, and the night is a conch, three long and two short.
The boat approached the dock, where a group of people had been surrounded, and they were all looking at the sailboats on the lake.
Shi De, Liu Tongyu, Li Bosheng, Tang He, Bian Yuanheng... They all came to the dock and waited for the ship in front of them.
Ruo Han stood behind this group of people and looked anxiously. I don't know if there was Brother Shicheng in this ship that he was looking forward to.
Gradually, the ship approached. The man standing in the bow of the boat and waving to everyone was Zhang Shicheng!
"Big brother..." Everyone cheered and shouted.
What's wrong with this group of people? Is it the same as eating chicken blood? Zhang Yang was full of doubts. Isn't he coming by himself? Do you need to be so excited?
Of course I'm excited. Today is the end of the month. Everyone is waiting to get paid! Even the labor is 20 cents per person per day. Managers, the salary must be higher, right?
When the ship docked, Zhang Yang jumped on the dock and said to the crowd, "What is everyone doing here? Go back quickly, what should you do!"
"Brother, aren't we welcoming you!" Tang He said.
"What to welcome? Everyone goes back to work. Who doesn't go back? There is no meat to eat tonight. Zhang Yang said.
With Zhang Yang's words, as if to confirm something, two humming fat pigs were carried up from the boat.
"Cax!" Everyone dispersed in a crowd.
"Quick, go back to work. I love to work the most."
"Well, I'll look around again." Tang He swallowed and left. Looking at the way he looked at the fat pig, it was like looking at his first love.
The crowd dispersed, leaving only Liu Ruohan. She didn't know whether she should turn around and leave.
"Ruo Han!" Zhang Yang shouted.
"Brother Shicheng!" Liu Ruohan shouted in a low voice. If it hadn't been for the people coming down from the boat moving things back and forth, she really wanted to come forward immediately and jump into Shicheng's brother's arms to talk about the lovesickness of the past few days.
"Ruohan, are you used to living on the island these days?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Well, it's good, but the house is quite big. I'm not used to living alone." Ruohan said casually that after she came, she was naturally arranged by Tang He to the yard prepared for Zhang Yang.
The speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional. Zhang Yang immediately thought: What does Ruohan mean by saying this? Do you imply that you will live with her tonight?
Forget it, he shook his head. It's not the right time. There is still her uncle on the island. This unmarried cohabitation is not popular in this dynasty.
"Ruohan, I asked you to come to the island. There is an important thing for you to do." Zhang Yang said.
"What's the matter?" Liu Ruohan is very curious about what important things he can do.
"Ruohan, with the normal operation of this base, the funds will be circulated in large quantities. I need to go back and forth alone, and there needs a person here to be in charge of financial power. This person needs to be done by someone I absolutely trust. I can do things impartially, not embezzlement, and prevent others from swallowing it. I have been thinking about it over and over. Only one person is suitable..." He said this, turning his eyes to Ruohan's mouth, watching her lips move slightly, waiting for her answer.
In Liu Ruohan's heart, she had been overwhelmed by this sudden decision. In her heart, she had a lot of sweetness. She was the person he trusted the most. He was willing to give such an important thing to herself. She instinctively wanted to agree, but she had many concerns: Can she be qualified for this task? What's wrong with you? How can you be worthy of Brother Shicheng's trust in yourself? Among other things, he has three younger brothers, each of whom is very capable. Why should he give it to himself, a person who is still an outsider for the time being?
"Brother Shicheng, why did you leave such an important thing to me?" Liu Ruohan finally said this sentence with his lips trembling.
"Because you are the person I trust the most!" Zhang Yang said, "Don't you want to think so much. I just need you to answer, yes or not?"
"I...will!" Liu Ruohan made up his mind and finally said these words. The long eyelashes kept blinking, looking at the man in front of him.
"Great!" Zhang Yang couldn't help stretching out his hand and holding it on Liu Ruohan's white and tender little hands. "With you willing to help me, I'm relieved."
"You let go, and they are watching." Liu Ruohan's hands instinctively turned in Zhang Yang's hands, but he couldn't break free.
Zhang Yang turned his head and said, "What are you looking at? Why don't you bring up my precious box?"
Shi Xin immediately lowered his head: "I didn't see anything. I'll get it immediately!" With that, he whispered, "There will be a family soon. Why are you ashamed!" The voice was not loud, but it was just heard by Zhang Yang and Ruohan.
"What did you say? Son of a bitch, go to Xinghua to sell salt for me tomorrow!" Zhang Yang said.
Alas, my stinky mouth! Shixin really wants to slap himself. He has to run away again tomorrow. Why is he so hard?
A special box was carried ashore by Shixin. On the box, the bright lock was conspicuous and swayed back and forth as Shixin walked.
"There are five hundred taels of silver in it, which need to be paid to the workers. Each person should be paid six cents of silver. Each household on the island will be given one tael of silver for the settlement fee. These brothers who are with me will give each of them two taels of silver. All the silver must be registered and made. There is also an account book in the box. How much is the expenditure? The amount of income should be completely matched. Even if I come to withdraw the money, I have to record it. Zhang Yang said.
Hearing that there was so much money in it, Liu Ruohan was stunned with surprise: His brother Shicheng was simply a god who could make so much money. She nodded repeatedly: "Okay, no problem, I will remember it clearly and clearly."
