He is from the end of the world

Chapter 80 Buying Land

In just one day, several rows of small trees were planted in the back of the Lu family's courtyard.

These men were quick and agile, and Lu Ciyu specially hired honest, honest and innocent people. In the end, they planted new trees but hadn't transported them down from the mountain.

Every tree here is personally selected and tested by Lin Rong on the mountain.

Li Zheng and a group of men from Yuanjia Village followed behind him. If Lin Rong chose the tree, a man from Yuanjia Village would dig it out on the spot. The roots of the trees are wrapped in soil and put aside, and after a certain amount is collected, they are moved down the mountain together.

When he walked to the tree of the house, the people of the house looked at him with worry and anticipation. When the finger pointed in the direction of the tree, the hearts of the villagers were lifted.

One of his thoughts can determine the joys and sorrows of these people...Lin Rong seems to understand what Lu Ciyu means.

Although Lu Ciyu and Lu Guixi handed over the horses to them, the mountain road is far and wide, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth.

When the people in Lu Mansion planted all the trees they had accumulated, Lu Guixi looked at the sky and estimated the time. There was still some time before the next batch of trees were moved down, so he suggested letting them sit and rest for a while.

Unexpectedly, these men became embarrassed. They gathered together and counted and divided half of the people up the mountain to help move the tree.

Really a bunch of honest and honest people. For them, after taking Lu Ciyu's expensive wages, they would feel uneasy when they sat down and rested for a while.

A group of men said what they did and went away, while the rest dug holes for planting trees in advance. Lu Guixi leaned against the door and looked at the backs of the group of people who went up the mountain with emotion.

Lu Ciyu's ability to know people is second only to that of his family Yan'er, and all of the selected ones are capable.

Thanks to the hard work of these people, Lu Ciyu only went out with Lin Chi for a day, and when he came back, he was almost shocked by the changed Lu family.

"It's really hard for them." Lu Ciyu sighed.

"Give them more vegetables tomorrow." Lu Ciyu's salary had already been increased to the upper limit, so it would be inappropriate to raise it further. For these men, it is a great happiness to bring back some meaty dishes to their families every day.

"Okay."

------

The next day just dawned, and Lu Ciyu took Lin Chi to find Lizheng.

His purpose is very simple, the hill behind the village, and a large open space on the side of the village.

The mountain is the one behind the Lu Mansion, and most of it is deserted, not to mention that there are many large stones on the mountain. The road into the mountain was blocked, and few people usually came. Lu Ciyu originally planned to buy another mountain that he went hunting when he first came to this village, but after discussing with Lin Chi, he temporarily suppressed this idea and chose the current one.

He bought the mountain to grow some things on a large scale. Although the mountain is a little barren, it will be ready to use when he hires some people to organize and plan it.

If I buy the big one, should I close the mountain?

If the mountain is not closed...not to mention their family, when there is nothing to do in summer, the villagers will go up the mountain to hunt and collect herbs. Sometimes they are lucky and can dig some good things to supplement their income. How to get out.

People are curious, and Lu Ciyu is unwilling to let others in casually for whatever reason.

To a certain extent, his territorial awareness is still quite strong, and the planting is not a precious thing, and he can't pull the power grid protection.

But if the mountain is closed... Usually, for hundreds of years, this mountain is allowed to enter and exit. Lu Ciyu cut off a fortune for the villagers for no reason, and it may cause dissatisfaction in most of the village. Even Li Zheng could not guarantee that the other party would be on his side.

The other party is Lizheng from this village first, and secondly is the uncle whom he and Lin Chi recognized.

Li Zheng looked at him at a loss: "I already know what you want to buy a mountain, but what can you do with the land?"

Lu Ciyu poured him a glass of water: "I plan to build a few more yards, the one that built the Lu Mansion before. At that time, I had this plan in my heart, but I didn't have enough money."

"No, now that I have finally saved it, I thought of taking the opportunity to buy a mountain and buy it together."

"I didn't say that, your yard is not small. , aren't there three empty rooms now?"

Lu Ciyu smiled: "It's not too small, but this winter I've thought of some ways to make money. After a rough estimate, it will take a lot of space to implement it all. , those three yards are far from enough."

"Doesn't it take up space for processing and drying?"

Li Zheng frowned.

"Can't you estimate the approximate size?"

Lu Ciyu shook her head: "Don't talk about other ways, you know the reason why I bought these fruit trees is to use the fruit to make some dried fruit and other things, just to put the fruit It takes a lot of water to cut it into slices and dry it."

"It's the first time I've made this, and I'm not sure how many fruits these trees can bear, and how thin a fruit should be cut. These details are very big. of the operating space,"

Li Zheng stroked his beard.

The place Lu Ciyu wanted was not far from the village, and it took about a stick of incense to get there.

That large piece of land has been vacant since I remembered it. It is connected to the flat land where the village is located. Compared with the area where the village is located, it is exactly symmetrical, and its area is comparable to a quarter of the land. Yangning Village is so big.

Due to soil problems, the vacant land could not be reclaimed into farming land, otherwise it would have been robbed long ago. The village had been left empty all the time, it would be better to sell it to him than to leave it like this, but...

after selling it to him, there really isn't much room around the village.

Actually...isn't it okay to rent it to Lu Ciyu?

Seeing his expression, Lu Ciyu guessed what he was going to say, and before he said anything, he continued, "I intend to build this land into a factory."

"Factory?" such a name.

Lu Ciyu nodded and waved at Lin Chi, who took out a stack of paper from his arms.

Lu Ciyu unfolded the drawing and put it in front of Li Zheng, who lowered his head and saw a large floor plan on the paper.

This was the second time he saw this way of drawing. The first time was when Lin Rong was in charge of supervising the construction of Lu Ciyu's house.

He deserves to be a righteous person for so many years. He is much smarter than Lin Rong. Lin Rong's fellow, Lu Ciyu, told him back and forth several times before he understood what to think.

His father's kindness was inherited, but his father's wisdom was not retained at all.

In fact, the word factory mainly refers to the factory of large-scale industrial machinery. Lu Ciyu's usage is somewhat wrong, but anyway, no one in this world knows what the word means. People can object.

"Uncle can be understood as a factory for workers."

"Look, this is the entrance to the factory." He pointed to a corner on the drawing. "Each box on this map is a circled room."

Li Zheng frowned as he looked at the densely drawn drawings: "This room is quite a lot."

"But there are not many subdivisions."

"Look, there is a circle with a vertical bar in it (①). The houses with these marks are the main places for processing, so the area of ​​these houses is much larger than the others. Then there are A 2...cough the house with the twisted one piece is a semi-finished product of secondary processing. After the thing is finished, it will be sent here for the second step...".

"...The last room in the circle is used for packaging alone."

"Ah, packaging is to pack the finished product with something."

"For example, it's like when we go to town to buy soy sauce vinegar. It will cost you ten cents less to bring the jar yourself than to buy a whole jar from there, which is what we do here."

"With good packaging, the price of our products will also increase a lot."

Li Zheng He was confused, but he was quite sure of one thing.

Lu Ciyu obviously planned a lot of time for this matter, and this time he came with determination to succeed.

Just talking about the use of each room on these drawings is definitely not something that can be figured out in a day or two. Every corner of the open space has been fully utilized, leaving no room for it. As Lu Ciyu said, this is to subdivide everyone's labor to the maximum extent, how much manpower and material resources will be saved by building an assembly line, and how much more money can be made... Even if this old man thinks about it Thinking of it would make the blood boil.

This dynasty still remained in the business model of small farmers and small households where each family only did their own business. The processing method of the assembly line was only available in the artisans raised in the palace and in large merchants. For small farmers like them, it was unprecedented. of whimsy.

The most important thing is...

"After the factory is built, there will be a lot of labor gaps. Naturally, I will recruit people from our own village first. At that time, everyone in the village can come and help when they are slack. You can pay by the month, or even by the hour, and we can sign the paperwork directly."

"Lin Chi and I are both from this village, you and everyone don't have to worry that we will deceive you or something, this is safe and secure. A profitable business."

"Now you understand why I don't want to rent the land. After all, I have to build a lot of things on it. In case the village suddenly reclaims the land... I have to find another place to relocate. , if I don't talk about the delay, it will have a great impact on my business."

Li was still hesitant on the front, and his heart was already biased towards him.

Lu Ciyu's wages to the villagers have always been generous, even if a man is 30 wen a day, 300 wen in ten days, or 100 days...

His heart was pounding.

"This fact is too important. I can't make the plan alone. I need to discuss it with several other clan elders."

Lu Ciyu nodded: "It should be."

"But I'm going to take the county exam in a while. I hope Uncle Lizheng can get a result sooner." "If I wait

until I get back from the exam and then build a house... I'm afraid I won't be able to do this year's business in time."

It was only May when he came back. With Lu Ciyu's handwriting, I'm afraid the factory won't be fooled. It is estimated that it will be covered for half a month.

It would be better to let him build the factory during the slack season, so that he can make extra money before the busy farming season. If there are no people in the busy farming village, wouldn't this year be wasted in vain.

After a year's difference, how much money should the village earn less?

When I got there, I was trying to understand the principle, but I was even more anxious than Lu Ciyu.

"I see, I'll find a few clan elders in a while."

This is a matter for the benefit of the entire village, and neither Lin clan elder Li clan elder nor anyone else will object.

"These drawings...".

"I'll put it with you first." Lu Ciyu's face was full of joy. "It doesn't matter if I tell them my plan, I must explain my previous thoughts clearly, as long as I can persuade a few clan elders to agree."

Li Zheng nodded: "Don't worry."

After talking about the matter, Lu Ciyu brought Zhelin went out the door late. Although there was a smile on the corner of his lips, he intuitively told Lin Chi that he still had something in his heart, and Young Master Lu was not as happy as he looked on the outside.

The two walked for a long time, until Lin Chi said, "Why is Young Master Lu unhappy?" Lu Ciyu

looked at him in surprise: "I didn't expect you to find out. "

"Sure enough, my daughter-in-law understands me... Say, are you wondering what my husband is thinking about all day?" Master Lu began to be serious again.

Lin Chi grabbed his hand holding his cheek: "Don't make trouble."

"Why?"

"I'm worried." Lu Ciyu sighed, and only then removed the disguise and frowned slightly.

"I'm worried about when Uncle Lizheng can give me an accurate answer."

"When will the title deed be in my hands, and when will I be able to relax."
