The good mood early in the morning was ruined by Li Xiaogong's arrival, but is there anything you can do against him?
Looking at the plaque beside the door, Luo Zhang shook his head helplessly, and secretly comforted himself: "This word is worth ten thousand gold, it is not a loss, it is not a loss!"
I found two servants to help Luo Zhang move the plaque into the house and put it away carefully before leaving Luo Mansion and heading towards the Tang Barbeque Shop.
Since he hasn't been there in the past few days, he naturally has to go on a tour and save some ingredients. Of course, the most important thing is to collect cash. He is short of money now. He has just solved the issue of 200 acres of fiefdom, and now he has 500 acres. The fiefdom's dock fell on his hands again, and he had no money to do.
When Luo Zhang arrived at Datang BBQ Shop, the door of the BBQ shop had just opened, and he saw Zhao Tianhu wearing a brocade robe and holding a fan in his hand, pretending to be arty, but in Luo Zhang's opinion It's really weird.
Think about it, what does a 200-pound strong man look like with a fierce look on his face and a small fan in his hand?
Seeing Luo Zhang coming, Zhao Tianhu hurriedly threw away the fan and ran towards Luo Zhang to help Luo Zhang dismount.
The person who serves him is more caring than serving his own father. He can't help but care. The person in front of him is his sponsor and his backer. He, Zhao Tianhu, is a gangster, and his current status depends entirely on Luo Zhang. ah.
You know, Zhao Tianhu is now a well-known figure in Dongshi. When others see him, no one calls him Master Zhao. Unlike before, they hid when they saw him, for fear that he would ask them for protection money.
Zhao Tianhu has long since stopped asking for protection fees. Compared with the business of Datang Barbeque Shop, the money he spends working so hard to collect protection fees every month is just a fraction.
"Is business okay these days?" Luo Zhang asked as he walked towards the barbecue shop.
"It's okay. I've talked with Shopkeeper Xu from Yan Lai Building and Shopkeeper Wang from Mingyue Building in the past few days, and we sold a lot of barbecue there. They were very satisfied with our barbecue and made a lot of money." Zhao Tianhu said with a smile.
Luo Zhang looked at Zhao Tianhu in surprise. He didn't expect that Zhao Tianhu had such talent and actually knew how to expand the market? It is no longer limited to barbecue shops, but has expanded to restaurants. Yanlai Restaurant is a gold-selling cave. All dignitaries go there every day, so the price of barbecue can naturally increase a lot.
This Zhao Tianhu is really a talent, a huge talent. I am afraid I underestimated him before!
Zhao Tianhu naturally knew why Luo Zhang came here and took Luo Zhang to the vault last time.
In the underground vault, the camphor box was filled again. Luo Zhang found that this time there was obviously less silver than last time, and more gold.
Gold is more valuable than silver. One tael of gold is worth a hundred taels of silver, which means that you will make more money this time than last time.
"Brother, there are a total of 340,000 taels of silver here, plus the 32,000 taels you left here before, the total is 370,000 taels. The King of Wei has also given it to him." Zhao Tianhu reported truthfully. Report.
"Okay, not bad, really good. Remember, this is just the first barbecue shop. In a few days, you can find a store in Xishi and open one there. If the business in Xishi is good, just open one in Chang'an. Open every shop and try to spread our barbecue throughout Chang'an City! Do you understand what I mean?" Luo Zhang said with a strange light in his eyes.
"Brother, what do you mean?" Zhao Tianhu's eyes widened with excitement. Apparently he had thought of Luo Zhang's intention.
"Don't be in a hurry, take your time, this is a long-term plan. If possible, I even hope that you can spread the barbecue all over the Tang Dynasty, and even have our barbecue shops outside the territory. Then you will be awesome! Luo Zhang patted Zhao Tianhu on the shoulder and said.
For this kind of pie-making thing, it doesn't cost Luo Zhang a penny. Looking at Zhao Tianhu, he can actually expand the market. It's nothing to remind him to open a branch.
"Yes, my little brother's idea is great. If we open it all over Chang'an and the entire Tang Dynasty, we will be rich!" Zhao Tianhu smiled like a nymphomaniac.
Luo Zhang had no intention of dealing with people with illusions and drove him away. Luo Zhang directly started collecting silver coins and put 200,000 of them into the system. The system returned 2,000, plus the remaining 17,000. Twelve thousand, there are a total of 174,000 taels of silver here.
Looking at the remaining gold cakes, Luo Zhang secretly calculated how much money was left to build the dock. Obviously, the more than 170,000 yuan was obviously not enough.
Of course, the money to start is enough.
We still have to go to the master craftsman to discuss this matter, and we also have to go to Du Jin and ask him to find someone to build it.
As for the manpower in the first fiefdom, Luo Zhang does not plan to use it. It will take a long time to complete the construction there. If the manpower is transferred, the construction will be slower. He is also planning to wait until winter comes to complete the construction. With Mei Niang Have a good time.
Back at the barbecue shop, Luo Zhang once again spent 20,000 points to exchange for more ingredients and left them for Zhao Tianhu. He asked him to do a good job, and then rode towards his base camp, the Dockyard Division.
Li Shimin is very interested in shipbuilding. It can be seen from what he said to Li Junxian yesterday. After all, he is still the boss of the shipyard department. Even if he is showing off to Li Shimin, he still wants to come and visit. Besides, , I don’t know how the construction here is going, but Luo Zhang is afraid that Yan Lide and Yan Liben will stumbling upon him, so he has to be on guard.
When he arrived at the Dockyard Department, Luo Zhang's eyes lit up. After only two days, the Dockyard Department had a different look. The first thing to change was the door. The original broken door had been replaced. The gate is as tall as two people. It was originally bare, without even a stone dog. Compared with the City Defense Department, it looked very shabby. According to Luo Zhang's request, two stone lions were also placed here, and they were even better than those of the City Defense Department. More majestic and imposing.
After getting off his horse, Luo Zhang walked into the Dockyard Department. At this time, the place had become a large construction site. All the dilapidated and collapsed houses had been pushed to the side. New houses were being built, and a group of old guys were working there. The shipyard manager was shouting and shouting, seeming to be directing something.
When one person saw Luo Zhang coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet Luo Zhang.
Looking at the person who came, it was the oldest old guy here. Luo Zhang remembered that his surname seemed to be Ma, but he couldn't remember his name clearly.
"Mr. Ma, is there nothing wrong here?" Luo Zhang glanced around and asked.
"Sir, don't worry, with us old guys here keeping an eye on him, he won't get into any problems!" Mr. Ma said with a smile, looking very happy. You know, this shipyard is in a state of disrepair. They went to the shipyard many times to apply for repairs, but no one paid any attention to them. Now that you have just arrived, you can get this done. This shows your energy, and their shipyard department will have a good life in the future.
Luo Zhang nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that Yan Lide and Yan Liben didn't play any tricks. This made Luo Zhang relieved. These two people were not good at getting into trouble. Luo Zhang would not provoke him if he could. Of course, this was not the case. Representative Luo Zhang will let them go, but the time has not come yet. The revenge of the assassination is not so easy to let go.
The Dockyard Department had nothing to do, Luo Zhang also gave a few words of advice and left here, riding out of the city and heading towards his first fiefdom in Wannian County.
He wanted to discuss with Du Jin and the great craftsman the matter of the second fiefdom, where he could make money if he could start construction as soon as possible. Just guarding a river beach would be worthless.
This time Luo Zhang did not alarm the Wannian County magistrate, but came to the fiefdom one by one.
Seeing Luo Zhang, Du Jin and Zhang Dajiang hurriedly came forward to see Luo Zhang. Luo Zhang was now a county magistrate. This speed of promotion was rare in the Tang Dynasty, and Luo Zhang was so young. Who knows where he will be in a few years? No matter what the situation is, they will naturally want to curry favor.
Luo Zhang didn't say anything polite to them, and took the two of them directly to the Hetan fief. There, Luo Zhang explained his plan and the things to be built to Zhang Dajiang in detail. Zhang Dajiang heard that He was stunned, and at the same time he thought to himself, there is a reason why people have such achievements at such a young age. Who would have thought of building a pier on such a deserted beach? Who would have thought of building a separate courtyard in a place where there are many strange rocks and no grass growing?
When Luo Zhang finished speaking, the two of them didn't come back to their senses for a long time, and they didn't wake up until Luo Zhang coughed.
