Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

The reform of the post station involves not only the post soldiers, but also the supporting measures of the entire county, state, prefecture and government offices, as well as the parliament and government offices at the higher level. Therefore, Lu Yu needs to go there in person to conduct an on-site inspection, and then implement.

One of the things Wang Qi emphatically asked before Lu Yu left the capital was that special attention should be paid to the civil part of the post station reform process. It could neither be forcibly assigned nor shelved. It should be done on the side. If we do it well, we must actually benefit the people.

Puzhou, Sihai Trading Company.

"Mr. Fan, could you please make a trip in person? Mr. Lu is feeling uneasy." Lu Yu and Fan Zhongjin sat across from each other, drinking tea and chatting.

Speaking of which, Lu Yu can be regarded as one of the first shareholders to join Sihai Commercial Bank. Although the proportion is very small, it can be regarded as a signal. The relationship between him and Wang Qi cannot be simply measured between superiors and subordinates.

Fan Zhongjin is well versed in human nature, so he naturally understands the truth.

So Lu Yu came to greet him two days after he arrived in Puzhou.

"Master Lu has been working hard for state affairs. If we, the common people, cannot serve you a cup of hot tea as a sign of respect, wouldn't it mean that the officials and the people are alienated?" Fan Zhongjin said, placing a well-packed tea on the table. The box was pushed over: "This is the new bitter tea from Horqin. It smells bitter, but the second sip fills your mouth with fragrance, refreshing your heart and mind. Adults can try it."

Lu Yu's eyes fell on the tea box. If it said it was tea, then it was tea. There would be no other ways.

"Thank you, Mr. Fan." Lu Yu cupped her hands and turned back to business: "But there is one more thing that I need Mr. Fan's help with."

"Master Lu, please speak." Fan Zhongjin had no reason to refuse.

"On the reform of the post station, just issuing a notice may not be able to explain it to the people at the bottom and the postmen." Lu Yu tapped her fingers lightly on the table and said slowly: "I need you The Shanxi Business Daily under the name of the Fan family will explain and promote it. Whether it is pictures, text, or other forms, the effect I want is to make those stakeholders understand what the parliament is going to do this time."

Gently stroking his beard, Fan Zhongjin felt that it was a bit troublesome to do so, and was it really necessary to do so?
Just ordinary people, what else does the Parliament need to explain to them if they want reforms?
However, Fan Zhongjin would not say this.

Since Lu Yu had spoken, it was what the council meant, and Fan Zhongjin would not be stupid enough to go against the council.

"I understand. I will personally supervise this matter. Since it needs to be done, not only the business newspaper, but also the pawn shops, foot shops, restaurants and other places under the name of the business will have people to explain this kind of thing. In half a month, the entire Shanshan and Shaanxi regions will be able to understand the council’s painstaking efforts.”

"Okay over there. If you have anything, you can discuss it with me," Lu Yu leaned back on the chair and said, "I will be walking around Puzhou in the past few days."

"My lord, aren't you going to Chang'an or Taiyuan?" Fan Zhongjin was a little surprised.

These big shots from Beijing are always different from others.

For example, Governor Sun Chuanting never spent much time in Chang'an or Taiyuan. He either visited various state capitals or went deep into counties and villages to see the implementation of parliamentary policies, the division of land and the implementation of taxation.
"The ruler said that Puzhou is a model for Shanxi and Shaanxi. I am here to take a good look and learn from it."

"Your Excellency, that's correct." Fan Zhongjin nodded sharply upon hearing this. As long as it was what Wang Qi said, there would be no problem.

The next day, Sihai Commercial Bank branch hospital.

Li Zicheng had already followed the manager of Ya Bank to the recruitment office of Sihai Commercial Bank.

After a brief interview and a display of guns and sticks, Li Zicheng was quickly assigned to another location.

"Are you from Yan'an Prefecture?" Inside the room, there was a man who looked like a teacher sitting upright. "Yan'an Prefecture, Mizhi County, Li Jiqian Village," Li Zicheng reported his family name.

"What do you think of Mizhi County?" The teacher kept writing.

"Poor, poor people can't eat!" Li Zicheng didn't know the meaning of the teacher's question, but he answered truthfully.

"I have a way here. The trading company provides money and technology." The teacher pushed up the lens on the bridge of his nose and said softly: "Can you recruit a strong labor force of more than 300 people?"

"What do you want to do?" Li Zicheng subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Three hundred people in their prime?

Doesn't the man who looks like a teacher in front of him want to rebel?
I, Li Zicheng, have been a good citizen for generations, and I have just had a great future. Why would I be willing to rebel?
Li Zicheng was hesitating whether to turn around and run out to sue the officials!
"There is coal in Yan'an Prefecture, Kaolin Yulin, and Mizhi area. I think you happen to be from Mizhi and you look quite majestic, so I want you to go back to Mizhi to start a coal mining factory in the name of a trading company. How about it?"

"Bitter kiln?" Li Zicheng curled his lips.

"The business bank pays and sends people to supervise. As long as you go into the pit, you can get twenty taels of silver per person per month!" The teacher grinned: "You can be the team leader, you don't have to go into the pit, just maintain order, and you can get fifty taels of silver a month!"

Five, fifty taels of silver?
Li Zicheng's eyes widened instantly. This number was something he had never imagined in his life.

"How about it? Give you a quarter of an hour and then give me a reply," said the man who looked like a teacher.

"Who am I working for?" Li Zicheng asked.

"Sihai Trading Company," when the teacher said these four words, his body became straighter.

"Done!" Li Zicheng nodded sharply: "I will go back tomorrow! In less than three days, I can pull out five hundred people!"

"The more the merrier, I will send two people to follow you back and keep an eye on you along the way." The teacher smiled and nodded: "If there is no problem, just sign here."

Not long after, Li Zicheng walked out of Sihai Trading Company.

Looking up at the sky, I feel refreshed!
Looking down at myself, I just feel that the world is so big and I can go anywhere!
It turns out that this is the confidence!
Sihai Commercial Bank is my confidence!
Fifty taels of silver a month is my confidence!

Li Zicheng felt that any postman or trade was not as practical as going home to mine!
After all, some people will never be able to earn fifty li of silver in their lifetime!

Thinking of this, Li Zicheng suddenly thought that instead of going to Datong in the north, Li Keyong might as well just follow him and mine at home!

"Just do it!" Li Zicheng hit his fist with his fist and walked quickly towards the inn.

Under the setting sun, Li Zicheng's figure became longer and longer, farther and farther away.

At this moment, the famous rebel leader in history disappeared.

At this moment, the most famous coal merchant in history has risen! (End of chapter)
