Zhao Ping won't talk nonsense without Yingyi's reminder.
With such superb skills, Ying Yi is definitely not an ordinary person.
Hiding in Xiping Village, he must be planning something big.
As long as it doesn't affect him, Zhao Ping is happy to see that his neighbor is a great master.
One day, a desperate assassin assassinates him and disturbs his neighbors. Maybe Fingyingyi can help him fight against the enemy.
Only a fool would go around saying that Ying Yi was a master, causing trouble for himself.
This was just a small episode, and Zhao Ping did not delve into it.
Instead, continue to arrange these meat horses.
No, the arrangements for the meat horses have been completed, and now there are only fifteen children left.
They are all descendants of bandits.
According to Zhang Zhongliang's idea, we should eradicate the roots and kill them all.
But Zhao Ping felt that the grievances of the previous generation had nothing to do with the children, not to mention that these children were thrown into the row house by the bandits and raised as meat horses, and he obviously had no gratitude to the bandits.
Leave it for now.
With his financial resources, he would have no problem raising a dozen children.
He handed it over to the previous bodyguard and asked him to take the previous women and the fifteen children back to Xiping Village.
Zhao Ping wandered around Dongyi Mountain again, thoroughly cleaning up the loot, and then left with the others.
Just in time for dinner.
Everyone gathered.
Only then did Zhao Ping realize that there were too many people, the table was too small, and it was a bit crowded.
Originally, there were many people eating at their house.
Not only do they have a family of four, but they also have Yun Man as their apprentice, Qian Liu as their brother, and Li Hu as their protector.
In addition to Xia Quan, Xia Yang, Liu Muyun, and Gao Meng, there are already eleven people.
Now here comes Zuo Zhigang, the head of Heifeng Village.
He is a centurion under the Flying Eagle Army and the first soldier selected by Liu Mengru to reorganize the Flying Eagle Army, so he is naturally qualified to take the seat.
The seventh leader is Wen Qi.
My brother-in-law and my own family must not be excluded.
Qi Liang, a county official, is an official.
Moreover, Zhao Ping was the one who led the troops to fight, so it was difficult for Zhao Ping to drive people away.
Zhang Zhongliang, the third leader of Heifeng Village, is in charge of logistics and is also the key figure entrusted by Zhao Ping with the important task of looking after the coal mine.
It wouldn't be appropriate to kick him out.
There is also a Song and Ming Dynasty official who is a dignified envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital. He has a high position and is naturally qualified to sit here and eat.
Fortunately, he was obsessed with medicine and was out checking the recovery of the wounded, but he hadn't come back yet.
In this way, there were fifteen people sitting around the small main room.
Overcrowded.
But at this moment, another report from the fourth master Shang Jie came outside the door.
"Sir, a big black man came outside the door and wanted to see you. He said he had important news to report."
"Let him in."
After Zhao Ping said this, he thought of Xia Zhixue and hurriedly went out to greet him.
"Brother Zhixue, you came just in time. We are eating. Let's talk while eating."
Just as Xia Zhixue was about to refuse, he heard a growling sound from his stomach.
When the black face turns red, no one can see it.
I could only follow Zhao Ping's wishes and go to the main room.
One more person was added.
More crowded.
It seems that they will continue to urge Village Chief Xia to speed up building a house and move early.
Otherwise, as the power expands in the future, we won’t even be able to sit down to eat.
Fortunately, everyone is a rough guy, so no one cares.
Wen Hui and Liu Mengru were the heads of the family, and they were happy to see their husband surrounded by many loyal people.
As for Zhao Xiaoxiao - she has already started eating.
Zhao Ping had no choice but to invite everyone to eat.
Originally, he wanted to serve wine, but Qian Liu refused to let him go.
A jar of acacia wine worth ten thousand taels of silver, if these people drank it, they were literally killing Qian Liu.
Everyone else also knows the value of acacia wine, and even if they pay six bucks, they don't dare to drink it.
It's not wine, it's all money.
Can knock out teeth.
After eating for a while, Zhao Pingcong asked Xia Zhixue: "Brother Zhixue, do you have any good news when you come back this time?"
Xia Zhixue didn't break the news right after they met, so it was definitely not bad news.
"good."
Sure enough, Xia Zhixue nodded and said with a smile: "Those wealthy businessmen in the county have already formulated a plan for our textile factory in Xiping Village."
"what's the plan?"
Zhao Ping asked curiously.
People are targeting us, but this is good news and a bit interesting.
"Place your order with us."
Xia Zhi theory.
"this……"
Zhao Ping was a little confused.
As soon as the factory was set up, someone placed an order. Isn’t this an action to deliver pillows when sleepy comes?
Why is it called a plan against me?
"They agreed that Tian Fuhai would take the lead and place an order for our Xiping Village Textile Factory, requiring us to complete 20,000 pieces of cloth within a month."
Xia Zhixue said: "If it is not completed, we will compensate the loss a hundred times."
"Twenty thousand horses a month?"
Zhao Ping was startled.
You know, the present is not the previous life, but the backward feudal dynasty.
A normal textile machine, coupled with skilled textile workers, can spin one piece of cloth a day.
Even if his textile machine was more advanced, it would only be like five pieces of cloth.
Twenty thousand horses a month, on average, is more than 600 horses a day. If one machine makes five horses, at least more than 100 machines are needed.
The current Xipingcun Textile Factory only has fifty units.
Even including the night shift, when the machines are running continuously, the number is only 15,000 horses per month, which is far from 20,000 horses.
And this is the ideal situation.
The reality is... won't the machine break down and stop working?
Won’t workers get sick?
Can the night shift really produce the same five bolts of cloth as the day shift?
With a series of problems piled up together, it would be difficult to produce even 12,000 pieces of cloth, let alone 15,000 pieces of cloth per month.
According to the market price, a piece of cloth costs five hundred cents.
Twenty thousand horses are ten thousand taels of silver.
To pay a hundredfold compensation is to completely wipe out one's family fortune.
The plan is so sinister.
But Zhao Ping is not worried.
There are only fifty machines at the moment, but Lu Xiu and his son can still continue to work.
It is not a problem to distribute the accessories and produce hundreds of new textile machines within a month.
But how did Xia Zhixue find out?
Zhao Ping couldn't help but frown and said with a stern face: "Brother Zhixue, I was asked to weave 20,000 pieces of cloth a month, and you actually told me that this is good news?"
"Um?"
Xia Zhixue was also stunned and asked doubtfully: "Isn't it?"
"I heard that one of the new textile machines that your husband is researching is as good as five of the ones in the past."
"If we build a few hundred machines, it won't be difficult to make 20,000 pieces of cloth a month, right?"
"Who told you that one textile machine I research is as good as five others?"
Zhao Ping asked in a deep voice.
He thought of his beautiful neighbor Ying Yi.
Not only did he know about the new loom, he also knew about military training, and he also knew the truth about acacia wine.
Could it be that there is a traitor around?
Zhao Ping couldn't help but be careless.
"I said."
Wen Hui stood up and said.
"Why?"
Zhao Ping asked in confusion.
Wen Hui explained: "Last time I heard that the wealthy businessmen in the county were going to target us, I started to be so worried that I couldn't sleep."
"After all, our Wen family was framed and the whole family was killed. I didn't want our family to make the same mistake again, so I thought about many possibilities."
"First, the wealthy businessmen in the county and city used the power of the government to dismantle our factories and put us in jail."
"But I think my husband has made preparations in advance. All factories have official documents and he is a seventh-grade official. They can't suppress us with this."
"The second option is to hire experts to kill you."
"But with a strong man like Hu Zi by your side, it would be difficult for an ordinary master to kill you."
"The third way is to restrict our raw materials. The raw materials for Acacia wine are grains. We can purchase them from the villagers, but they can't restrict them."
"The raw material used in the textile factory is linen and cotton, and they can't control this."
"Even if the county is restricted, we can still buy it from other places. Even if it's not possible, there are many hemp farmers among the common people, so we can buy it from them."
"This strategy was also rejected by me."
"I'm worried that they can't think of a way and will use some extreme means. For example, if they can't assassinate you, they will assassinate Sister Mengru and me."
"Or setting fire to the factory or something."
"So we proactively provided them with a way to sign an impossible order volume for us to complete."
"The deadline has expired. If we fail to complete it, we will have to pay a hundred times the compensation."
"If we can't hand it over, if the government comes forward again, we will have no countermeasures."
"I knew that Brother Zhixue was the person in charge of the news, so I found him and asked him to quietly reveal the news to the wealthy businessmen in the county and city, so that they would be fooled."
This statement not only shocked Zhao Ping, but also everyone present looked at Wen Hui in horror.
All along, everyone thought she was a weak woman.
He didn't take her seriously.
It was because of the relationship between Zhao Ping and Wen Qi that he was polite to her.
I didn't expect that he would respond to those words, which is the most poisonous thing to a woman's heart.
Wenhui is really good at scheming people.
Use the enemy's money to strengthen your own power.
When the opponent learns the truth, he will probably be so angry that he vomits blood and dies.
Zhao Ping did not express his position, but continued to ask, "Besides Brother Zhixue, have you told anyone else about the new textile machine?"
