I don't want to be king

Chapter 114 Auction

"Very good, as I said before, No. 1 will give 50 taels, No. 230 taels, No. 3 [-] taels, and then continue."

The purpose of Lin Yi's holding these activities is very simple, to improve the tools of production and life. Even if there is only a small change in the plow, plowing a little more than before is considered progress.

This is an agricultural society through and through.

He is a modern person who has received higher education, has eaten pork, and seen pigs run.

However, the modern system will never be moved here.

The birth of each system has its own background.

The old ones are left behind, and the new ones are mixed together, without a consistent structure, mechanical imitation or blind promotion, all of which are imitating cats and cats, and finally neither fish nor fowl.

Instead of this, it is better to start with some small things and cultivate the "human spirit".

For example, the awareness of hygiene, the attitude of learning arithmetic and chemistry, and the enterprising spirit of pioneering and innovative in production and life.

He wants to improve the atmosphere of this society first.

"Yes," Xie Zan continued to drink the tea himself, took a sip and continued, "The blacksmith from Nanzhou is very good, and the knives he made can be said to cut iron like mud.

Mr. Bian has given money to help him open a blacksmithing workshop. "

"The knives are second. After all, these are used on the battlefield. Sanhe won't be able to use them for the time being. It's more practical for them to make more sickles, shovels, chisels, and hammers,"

Lin Yi said while peeling the lychee, "Any kind of competition can be held, such as brick and porcelain firing, carriage making, bow and arrow making, sculpture, and boat building are all handicrafts.

As long as whoever does well, I will not be stingy with money. "

Xie Zan said, "My lord is wise!"

"Stop talking nonsense, you guys, you still need to use your brains more, Sanhe not only wants to retain people, but also retains talents,"

Lin Yi suddenly thought of something, "Also, let Mr. Bian and those blacksmiths figure out how to prevent the cannons and muskets from exploding."

Ever since Wen Zhaoyi learned the details of Jizhao Nunnery, he felt a little uneasy.

In any case, you still need some strength to protect yourself.

He has an inexplicable self-confidence, as long as he has a cannon and a spear, copper skin and iron bones can be blasted to pieces!

"Don't worry, my lord!"

Xie Zan said seriously, "Humble job must do its best!"

There is no need to talk to the prince about this kind of thing.

This is the main direction of their main attack in front of this group of old men.

Especially He Jixiang, the former Governor of the Beijing Camp, understands the importance of firearms better than anyone else.

After getting his instruction, there are more and more competitions in Baiyun City.

Not only official, but also private.

The entertainment industry, which was hit hard before, is gradually recovering at this moment.

The businessmen who fled from Hongzhou brought Hongzhou's advanced business philosophy and opened the first brothel in Baiyun City.

And the first oiran contest was held in Baiyun City, and Baiyun City became more energetic than before.

Yingying Yanyan, it's so lively.

Lin Yi burst into tears of excitement.

He gave instructions to the left and right, such a brothel owner is a talented person, he must take care of him, and he must not be killed!

Therefore, at the scene of the oiran competition, government officials also helped to maintain order.

The autumn harvest began one after another, and the big ships from Baiyun City came back one after another, filling the river.

Whether it is the residents of Baiyun City or the refugees from other places, they have never seen such a spectacular scene, which encircled both sides of the Xijiang River.

"Where are rats used as banners?"

"The rats on this flag are huge"

There were always people who couldn't help laughing, pointing at the flags waving in the wind on the big ship.

"fart!"

The local who knew everything about Hewangfu's banner snorted coldly, "That's an otter!

Not rats! "

"Yes, you are all blind, and you can't tell the difference between a mouse and an otter."

Someone followed suit.

"What's the difference between that and a mouse?"

Then someone said unconvinced, "They all have beards!"

There was chaos and quarrels for a while.

Along with the big ship came a lot of Nanyang specialties such as spices, ivory, coral, pearls, etc., and a long string of Nanyang natives tied with ropes.

It was auctioned publicly in Baiyun City, ranging from five hundred copper coins to three taels of silver according to gender and strength.

The most valuable are young women and grown men.

Young women can serve as servants and even satisfy the needs of some wealthy people.

And adult men are the best strong laborers. In front of the autumn harvest, these native people are basically working hard in the fields.

As for the elderly and children, they are not useless at all, they can help sun the millet and look after the children.

Lin Yi himself did not expect that the "auction method" he promoted in Sanhe would be so slippery.

Driven by curiosity, he visited the auction house in person and found that some of the so-called "Natives of Nanyang" were not natives at all.

He suspected that it was captured from the coast of Ayu country, but there was no evidence.

Notre Dame had a heart attack, and he wanted to ban the raising of natives in Sanhe.

However, I was afraid of using too much force, which would hit the shipping.

We can only ask the Chief Secretary to promulgate regulations one after another, and raising aboriginals must also follow the Sanhe Basic Law!

If you buy it, you have to buy it, but you have to pay wages, and you can't kill or beat people at will, otherwise the natives have the right to appeal.

Aspiring scholars can enter the school, and those with extraordinary force can enter the guard.

In short, everything must not violate the rule of "when you come, you are a member of Sanhe".

For Lin Yi, there is no way to use "natives" to supplement Sanhe's labor force.

At this moment, Du Yinniang, Tian Shiyou, Ge Laoshan, Liang Gen, Qiu Wujin and the others, including Shanqi and Xie Zan, were all sitting at the dinner table in Hewangfu.

Lin Yi held the teacup and did not speak.

Shan Qi suddenly said, "Everyone, according to Liang's law, private minting of coins should be decided!"

Seeing that he didn't talk to the prince, his confidence was even stronger.

Wealthy families like Liang Gen and Qiu Wujin can no longer develop freely!

Liang Gen and Qiu Wu knelt down in front of Lin Yi, which surprised Lin Yi.

He stood up, waved his hands and said, "I don't care about the mess between you and the government."

After speaking, he took the big blackie who was gnawing on the bones under the table and left the room.

Everything is going in the best direction.

He was finally able to find time to continue writing novels.

After unremitting efforts at this stage, the 30-word novel "God of War" has finally been completed.

"The little one's admiration for the prince is like a surging river, endless!"

Hong Ying is very excited!

He actually became the first reader of this book!

Through this book, he finally understands what is meant by "Where does compassion arise" and "Great teaching spreads all over the world", the real insight into the mystery!

During three sleepless days and nights, he read the book seven times.

I really can't bear to let go.
