Zhang Zhun curled the corner of her mouth, and continued, as if she couldn't hear her sarcasm, "Of course, it's the one who is willing to come. So what about collecting taxes? I promise he will still have a considerable profit after paying taxes. What I give him is a gadget that can make money. Maybe it's the kind that makes a lot of money."
Xue Zhidie said suspiciously: "Wow, I really can't tell. Are there any gadgets that make a big profit? Unless you are a god, you can do magic!"
Zhang Zhun glanced at her and said seriously: "Have I lied to you?"
Xue Zhidie was slightly suffocated and looked at Zhang Zhun suspiciously, but still didn't believe it. However, she had to admit that the person in front of her did make amazing moves sometimes. Under his leadership, a group of military households embarked on a staggering road. Everyone knew that the land was forbidden, and he actually dared to use the land to attack! Most people really don't have such courage.
Since they met, he did not deceive her. Although his temper was indeed very bad, he basically had nothing good to say when he met, and he did not feel pity for her at all, but his personality was fine. Even he was well-behaved with Yang Yinghan and had no intention of stealing himself. She couldn't help but not believe it.
Could it be that what he said is true?
Is there really a big profit gadget in this world?
Curiosity kills the cat, Xue Zhidie is actually very curious. Otherwise, a woman would not have studied shipbuilding. The ocean is completely a man's world! A woman who appears in this field is definitely an alternative. Ordinary warships do not allow women to board the ship at all. Because of the ancient rumors that women boarding a ship will bring bad luck to the warships.
After pondering for a while, Xue Zhidie slowly said, "I have a friend who is in business..."
Zhang Zhun said with a serious expression: "Can you trust the other party?"
Xue Zhidie stared at him with some dissatisfaction and protested: "She is my former friend, of course I can trust..."
Zhang Zhun said in surprise: "It's also a woman?"
Xue Zhidie said with some anger: "Don't you hear a woman's reaction so much? What's wrong with a woman? Women can't do business? Your salt business is not done with a woman? We women can't all stay at home and wait for death, right? There are female officers on the warships from the West! Don't talk about doing some small business! Do you think women can only give birth to children at home and serve you men at home!"
Zhang Zhun looked at her in shock, as if she didn't understand why she got so angry. Then he said disapprovingly: "What are you doing when you get angry at me? This is not what I said. Didn't you say about the Three Zhen Jiu Lie in the Ming Dynasty? If you don't go out of the gate and don't step into the gate, you will be a virtue for a woman without talent? Don't you think that you and your friends in the boudoir are a bit alternative?"
Xue Zhidie stared at him with her eyes and said angrily: "What are you, the Ming Dynasty! Are you from the Ming Dynasty? Are you from another place? Like Monkey King, it popped out of a stone?"
Before he finished speaking, Xue Ningying answered: "Aunt, who came out of the stone?"
Xue Zhidie raised her eyebrows and shouted, "It's not your business!"
Xue Ningying didn't dare to say anything.
Zhang Zhun did not realize that he actually made a subjective mistake. People in later generations often thought that women had a low status in ancient times. In fact, historical materials showed that in some dynasties, women had not had a low status. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, ordinary men had to avoid the official sedan chair, but women didn't need it. For example, free love that had already emerged in the late Ming Dynasty. Especially during the Chenghua period, the country was basically in anarchy, people's thoughts were liberated, and various thoughts emerged one after another.
In fact, among the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, many people are in love freely, which shows that the mediator's statement has reduced its status. In addition, women have more power in terms of remorse and remarrying. For example, Pan Jinlian made the decision and remarrying Ximen Qing. If there was no repression of the Qing Dynasty and the resolute suppression of women, the direction of history might not be like this.
Of course, Zhang Zhun didn't know about these. Now Zhang Zhun is a hero who doesn't suffer any loss at the moment. The woman in front of him turned out to be a feminist, and there is no need to touch this strange scale. He said, "Okay, I'll take back this sentence. It's good for women to have some skills, at least they won't be bullied by men easily. Do you think your close friend is as beautiful as you? What you need to do business requires is a shrewd mind, and looks are secondary..."
Xue Zhidie became sensitive again and frowned and said, "Are you talking about me?"
Zhang Zhun shrugged helplessly, saying that he had no intention.
Xue Zhidie said vigilantly: "What are you going to do? You are not allowed to make any decisions about her!"
Zhang Zhun was defeated by her super-strong thinking jump again and said angrily: "Hey! Don't be so sensitive, okay? I'm lustful, but I won't force the other party to submit! I don't have the hobby of rape! Since it's business, you always have to give me some insight. Just like you never treat me as a good person, I can't believe you all! If you find a liar and the two of them work together to cheat me, wouldn't I lose a lot? Look at me as a bad person, and I think you are also like a profiteer!"
Xue Zhidie was scolded by him in a blunt manner, but was not angry. Instead, she said seriously: "I heard from you that you really want to do business with others..."
Zhang Zhun was made to lose his temper by her. What kind of woman? Do you have time to gossip with her? Only now do you believe in yourself? If she hadn't come from Jiangnan, she would definitely not discuss this matter with her. Shandong is now full of messes, and it is too difficult to do business, so you have to start from Jiangnan. There are too many rich people in Jiangnan. If you don't plunder it hard, you will be really sorry for yourself.
Xue Zhidie pondered for a moment and said, "I can't tell you now. I want to contact her first. Her family... is not in a good situation now, and she may not be able to do a big business. But tens of thousands of taels of silver should be able to make do with it."
Zhang Zhun said: "It's almost the same as tens of thousands of taels, and we can slowly grow and grow."
Xue Zhidie looked at him with a glittering eyes and said unwillingly: "You haven't told me yet what kind of gadget it is, is it really profitable? Don't cheat me, otherwise I will be very embarrassed in front of her."
Zhang Zhun said affirmatively: "I guarantee you will not lose face! It is definitely a gadget to make money!"
Xue Zhidie is still half-believing and half-doubting.
Zhang Zhun said: "Anyway, you can contact me and let me know. By the way, as soon as possible, I'm very short of money now."
Xue Zhidie frowned and said, "She is in Jiangnan. Even if she contacts her as fast as possible, it will take more than a month for her to arrive soon?"
Zhang Zhun spread his hands and said, "I don't care about you, I just need to see someone as soon as possible."
Xue Zhidie was furious by his attitude, but he couldn't have a chance. This man is becoming more and more mail-minded, and only a woman like Yang Yinghan would willingly marry him. If she had changed herself, she would have to kick him out. The question is, do you really have the ability to kick him out with one kick?
The two of them were in a state of dismay for a while. Yang Yinghan had already prepared hot water there. Xue Ningying came over and called, and Zhang Zhun got up and went there to take a shower.
Back to ancient times, what was the most unaccustomed to is probably taking a bath. There was no faucet, no shower, and even no shower fluid. You had to use a large wooden bucket to take a bath, soap crests, and you couldn’t change the water at any time.
The protagonists in the novel are always very sexy when taking a bath. Usually, there are a few beautiful little girls around you who are waiting for you. If you accidentally touch each other, they are actually fantasies. You are not lewd to that level.
Yang Yinghan is a very traditional woman. At most, she handed towels outside. As for Xue Zhidie and Xue Ningying, she was not present at all. Want to be erotic? In the dream! Well, even in the dream, I'm afraid I can't be erotic. There's nothing else, it's mainly because I'm too tired.
After taking a shower, Zhang Zhun went to bed.
What do you do if you don’t sleep?
When I woke up, it was noon the next day.
Yang Yinghan and others are no longer in Qianhu House, so they probably are busy with their own affairs. Speaking of which, she is quite busy. If it weren't for Xue Zhidie and Xue Ningying, they would have been difficult to do. All Zhang Zhun's fiscal revenue and expenditure were all under her hands.
Zhang Zhun returned to the military camp and had lunch with the soldiers.
The soldiers of the guard team have basically recovered their spirits. Everyone has a lot to say about yesterday's battle. This is the first time they have experienced a completely different actual combat, and it is entirely a practical combat with muskets. Yesterday, most people truly realized that the power of muskets was so huge. It is such a small lead bullet and such a small pinch of black gunpowder that can take a person's life.
In the afternoon, the celebration meeting was held at the training ground.
Zhang Zhun presided over the conference.
In addition to the guards themselves, there were also representatives of the villagers and elders.
Some of the more difficult aspects of this celebration meeting were mainly about the distribution of merits. The detailed results have been counted. The battle of Baisha River eliminated a total of more than 400 enemies, including more than 300 people killed and more than 100 prisoners. According to the standards set by Zhang Zhun before, one acre of military field will be rewarded for each enemy killed. In other words, at least 400 acres of military field must be rewarded.
The enemy was basically killed and injured by muskets. Intuitively speaking, the credit should be attributed to Yang Zixuan and his musket team. However, it is impossible to remember all the credits on the musket team. Other teams have no credit at all, how could they be convinced?
