”Your highness, this time, the grassroots brought 3000 slaves to your highness. Hehe. "
without waiting for Xiao Ming to ask Liang Dahai if he had any new slaves in his hands, he came to Liang Dahai on his own initiative a few days after Niu Li overturned his car.
"Three thousand? How come there are so many this time? " Qin Le can't believe his ears.
"Your Highness, thanks to the gift of heaven, the heavy snow on the grassland has killed many cattle and sheep of the barbarians. Even if they trade with Dayu, the barbarians can't afford to raise many slaves. Instead of starving these slaves, they'd better sell them to me for some food. "
after a pause, Liang Dahai asked for credit and said," after walking several tribes on the grassland, I have 3000 slaves in my hands, but these barbarians are also very cunning. The price of slaves sold to me is very high, but thinking that your highness is in urgent need of slaves, I bought them. "
Xiao Ming nodded. Liang Dahai did a good job this time. Now Xiao Ming doesn't care if the barbarians are the enemies of the state of Dayu. He gives priority to the development of the fiefdom.
In recent years, the barbarians often plundered the border. The captured people of the state of Dayu don't know how many. Many of them died on the way to the grassland.
The people who were slaves in the barbarian tribes also lived a miserable life. There were no one who was captured. What's more, some barbarians would enjoy killing the people of Dayu.
In his memory, he often heard that the barbarians would deliberately release the people of Dayu and then hunt them on horseback, which was just a game they played when they were bored.
"You've done a good job this time. It doesn't matter if the price is a little higher. They are all the people of Dayu. It's a shame for Dayu to be captured by barbarians. No matter what way you can get them back, it's a good thing. Let's say, I'll take all the money this time." Xiao Ming said.
As soon as Liang Dahai came back from the barbarian grassland, he had heard that Xiao Ming had made a lot of money in organizing the chamber of Commerce. A large number of foreign businessmen in Qingzhou also confirmed this.
However, after learning about the chamber of Commerce, Liang Dahai also had his own idea. He said, "thanks to your highness, it's a great honor for CaoMing to do business with your highness, but CaoMing has a heartless request. Can CaoMing also join your Highness's chamber of Commerce? "
Xiao Ming smiles when he hears the words. Now Qingzhou chamber of Commerce has become a magical organization through the mouth of many businessmen, just like the slogan of pyramid selling. As long as you join the chamber of Commerce, you will get rich.
He said: "because you went to grassland, I didn't have time to tell you that since our king cooperates with you to sell slaves, you are naturally our king's person. It's also natural for you to join the chamber of Commerce. However, there's another thing you may know. We have our own business now. If you want, you can go to Li Kaiyuan, and he will bring you into the business. From then on, you will be our king If you have made enough contributions in the future, I can give you an official position. "
"Your Highness!" Liang Dahai trembled slightly with excitement, and the four words of "one official and half official" shocked him just like xianle.
Xiao Ming said with a smile, "you have heard me right. In my fiefdom, I only recognize my achievements, but I don't recognize any powerful families. "
like any dynasty in ancient times, the state of Dayu is also a dynasty with fixed classes, or because of the existence of aristocratic families, this kind of solidification is more extreme.
It is almost impossible for the common people to enter the aristocratic circle through their own efforts. Although there is an imperial examination system in the state of Dayu, it does not mean that they can become an official if they have a reputation.
Because there is a sad interview after the written examination, which is called Kan he in the state of Dayu. The so-called Kan he means that you need to be personally examined by the officials appointed by the imperial court after you have won an official title.
There are a lot of censorship contents, such as appearance, family background, filial piety, and so on. These contents become excuses for censorship. At this time of year, censors will become the core issue of the court ministers, because who gets the job can honestly collect money from the famous taxi, attack the children of the opponent's family, and take the opportunity to strengthen their own officials Number of people.
Of course, not all scholars have to pass this pass. Then you have to be the top three, and you will be qualified for the palace examination at that time.
That's why Liang Dahai is so excited when he promises him a job in the future. It's rare in history that Liang Dahai is a real chicken turned into a phoenix and is promoted to an official by a humble businessman.
"Your Highness's great kindness is unforgettable to Liang Dahai!" After the excitement, Liang Dahai knelt down with a "Dong".
Xiao Ming is helpless because he can't think of being an official as more important than his life, but he can do it in the state of Dayu.
He said: "don't be happy too soon. What I can give you, I can take it back. It's up to you."
Liang Dahai hugged his fist and said, "the grass people understand that if his highness is sent in the future, Liang Dahai will go through fire and water. "
" well, I'll take your words and wait for you to prove them to me. Let's not mention the fire and water. At present, I'm just preparing to build my business. It's time for you to go. "
Liang Dahai is still in a dream. He turns around and wants to leave. He suddenly remembers that he doesn't know how to find Li Kaiyuan, so he says, "Your Highness, where is Li Kaiyuan? ""Next to the patent department is a shop called Qingzhou commercial bank. Just go in. Ben Wang and Li Kaiyuan have said something about you. You just need to give your name. "Said Xiao Ming.
Liang Dahai nodded, turned around, and murmured: "Dad, mom, the ancestral graves of the old Liang family are smoking."
After summoning Liang Dahai, Xiao Ming went to the workshop base, and now the slaves were sent there directly. Because of the needs of the workshop area, Chen Wenlong set up a folk workshop in the workshop area, in which all the slaves lived.
There is a high wall outside the Minfang, which envelops the Minfang to prevent slaves from escaping and outsiders from prying.
In order to cultivate skilled workers, he urgently needed a group of young, brainy young slaves.
He came to the workshop area and met the slaves sent by Liang Dahai.
Unlike the slaves Liang Dahai sent last time, who still had vitality in their eyes, these slaves seemed to have no hope in their eyes. They were tortured and humiliated in the grassland, making them like walking dead.
Xiao Ming asked the guards to take the old and too young slaves down to arrange accommodation, leaving only the slaves aged between 13 and 30.
Unlike older slaves, young people are always restless. These people's eyes are full of different light. That's hope.
Of the three thousand slaves, only three hundred were strong, a small proportion, because most of the young slaves were killed by barbarians.
At this time, Xiao Ming asked the bodyguard to take these young slaves out of the workshop area to the Bank of Xiaoqing River.
