"Otherwise, let Brother Lu bring some craftsmen back. It won't work without craftsmen."

Du Rufang said something at this moment, with a bit of helplessness in his tone.

He also never thought that Lu Chensheng wanted to leave so many craftsmen in Jiyun City.

Right now, Sending Cloud City is employing people, but it is also starting to lack manpower.

Most of them were recruited soldiers and recruited away.

"He won't let people go."

When Liu Wensheng heard the words, he responded without thinking.

According to Lu Chensheng's performance in Xing Seoul, it is completely impossible for him to be willing to let him go.

Du Rufang also felt that it was unlikely, those people that Lu Chensheng wanted seemed to be going to do extremely important things, so how could they let them go?

Du Rufang also had a headache.

"How did brother Lu do it before?"

He wanted to know how Lu Chensheng did it, and learn from it.

"At the beginning, when there was a shortage of manpower, we went to other places to recruit, and used rich rewards to attract those craftsmen to come. Later, the three dynasties felt that something was not good, so they restricted the craftsmen from going to the stars. Seoul."

Liu Wensheng still knew about this matter clearly, so he answered immediately.

When Du Rufang heard this, he immediately frowned, "So, we can do the same."

"However, under the current restricted situation, how can we recruit the right people? I just received news that the other party actually asked the Ministry of War to recruit more people. Isn't this robbing us of people?"

Liu Wensheng was helpless, and incidentally expressed his dissatisfaction.

"The previous restrictions were due to the existence of Jiyun City, but now Jiyun City is in our hands, and we can go deep in the rear, and then secretly recruit some craftsmen. I don't believe we can't recruit them."

It is not easy to secretly recruit some craftsmen to the position of Yuncheng

In addition, with a rich salary, I don't believe that the other party is not tempted.

Liu Wensheng thought about it, and felt that what the other party said was right, this idea is indeed possible.

"That's fine, I'll send some people to do it."

Liu Wensheng agreed, and immediately started to do it.

It's a pity, if this is in Chuibian City, Du Rufang feels that he can go and tell the family, and then many craftsmen will be sent over.

Anyway, he is determined to help Lu Chensheng, so there is nothing wrong with asking the family to help.

The problem is, this is now in Sending Cloud City, so it's not easy to do this.

However, Chuibian City probably also encountered such troubles, and wrote a letter to send it back, asking them to do the same.

They are already doing things with Lu Chensheng, and he also hopes that these people he brought can perform better and leave a good impression on Lu Chensheng.

The cattle and Quyuanli were all sent to the two cities under the escort of a group of soldiers.

And the season of spring planting is approaching quietly.

Although the weather is still cold, but in comparison, it is much better than the cold winter.

The cattle pulled the Quyuan plow in the field, drawing deep furrows, making the field turbid.

At this moment, the common people are bending over to plant the seedlings, leaving rows of seedlings behind them, which is particularly gratifying.

The cattle will call from time to time, showing the breath of spring.

"The jasper is as tall as a tree, and thousands of green silk ribbons hang down. I don't know who cuts the thin leaves. The spring breeze in February is like scissors."

In the school, the sound of Lang Lang reading came from the academy.

What he was reading was the poem that Lu Chensheng had just written earlier.

Those who have children at home are now arranged to go to school, and now they are thinking about hard work.

Students who are successful in their studies are now in the graduate school.

There are also some who are responsible for teaching the students who have just entered the school.

These are all teachers who have studied once before.

It is absolutely possible to take up such a job.

The students don't have to pay any tuition fees, while the gentlemen who teach are all receiving salaries, and the salaries are quite generous.

Lu Chensheng looked outside and saw that the students inside were all looking eager when they were studying, so he left satisfied after seeing this.

There are quite a few students enrolled this year.

There are also many students in Sending Cloud City and Vertical Edge City.

It's just that it's inconvenient for these students to travel to and from Star Seoul.

Lu Chensheng also invited his former husbands, and after having them trained for a while, he taught in Jiyun City or Chuibian City.

They also receive salaries, and students can go to school for free.

The textbooks and so on were all transferred from Xing Seoul City, and now everything is on the right track, and it looks good according to the situation.

"Shopkeeper, the merchant from Loulan Kingdom is here again."

Not long after Lu Chensheng left the academy, an attendant immediately came to Lu Chensheng and said something to Lu Chensheng.

Hearing this, Lu Chensheng waved his hands indifferently, "Just find someone to receive, isn't it just for business, after the valuation, ask them what they want, and if they want to pay on credit, just allow them to bring Give them a quota that exceeds the value of their own goods by 40 or [-]."

The merchants of Loulan Kingdom come here, what can they do, not just for business

Just deal with them directly, every time you have to have him present, isn't it tiring?

Lu Chensheng waved his hand, the attendant was stunned for a moment, then after thinking about it, he came to his senses and hurried to do it.

That's what the shopkeeper said, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense, just do it.

Holding the peach sapling in Lu Chensheng's hand, he dug a piece of land and planted the peach sapling while Gu Zhifang watched from the side.

Now he can be counted as Lu Chensheng's personal bodyguard, whenever Lu Chensheng goes out, he will follow him.

"Shopkeeper, if everything goes well, I will go back to Taohuawu to have a look this year."

Gu Zhifang looked at Lu Chensheng planting peach trees, and also thought of the peach blossom forest in Taohuawu.

At this moment, in this star Seoul, the peach forests on both sides of the mountains are quite dense at a glance.

The peaches on the peach tree will grow peach saplings after being blown by the wind, or after they are ripe, and fall to the ground without being cleaned up.

Although Lu Chensheng didn't plant so many peaches, there were no picked peaches, which made this area more and more peach trees.

Chapter 553 A Million Taels of Silver

Gu Zhifang's words made Lu Chensheng slightly dazed.

A few years have passed in Taohuawu, so the peach trees there must have become denser.

Jiuniang's grave may not have been cleaned for a long time.

Every year during the Qingming Festival, Lu Chensheng never visited Jiu Niang's grave. To be honest, he was really ashamed.

"If everything goes well, we should be able to go back to Taoshuwu this year."

Lu Chensheng came back to his senses, then nodded and said something.

It's okay if this guy doesn't talk about it. After saying this, Lu Chensheng misses Taohuawu a little bit.

"It's good, what's not good for you to mention, what to mention Taohuawu."

Lu Chensheng buried the soil and looked helplessly at Gu Zhifang.

Right now, he is full of thoughts about when to go back, and he is too lazy to do other things.

This naturally made Lu Chensheng very dissatisfied.

Gu Zhifang didn't expect this to happen either, he just thought of this aspect suddenly, so he mentioned that.

Fortunately, Lu Chensheng didn't mean to continue to complain about him, and took the peach saplings aside and continued to plant them.

Another ten minutes passed, and the attendant who left before hurried back.

"The shopkeeper, the countries from the Western Regions and several other countries who came this time said that they want to ask the shopkeeper to complete the transaction in the past."

"The shopkeeper is planting peach trees, don't you understand? You just come here. It's not about who you want to talk about business with. The shopkeeper has to come forward."

This time, even Gu Zhifang who was on the side was a little displeased, and frowned and scolded.

He followed Lu Chensheng the longest, so he naturally understood that Lu Chensheng didn't want to be disturbed at this time.

No matter what it is, it must be dealt with later.

What's more, the businessmen from the Western Regions who came here just wanted to make a deal, so they just talked about it honestly.

If you are not satisfied with the valuation of the goods, or feel that the price of the goods sold to the other party is too high, then just continue to talk, and what do you have to do with the shopkeeper?

Hearing this, the attendant looked at Lu Chensheng in front of him, and wanted to say something else, but seeing that there seemed to be something wrong with Gu Zhifang's face, he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, turned around and left in a hurry.

Near noon, Lu Chensheng planted the peach tree, and then stretched his waist.

After bending over for a long time, thanks to Lu Chensheng who didn't stop his construction, he feels pretty good right now.

"Yes, after a few years of planting, I have planted all the peach trees here."

Lu Chensheng looked at the peach forest in front of him, with a bit of inexplicable joy on his face.

"It would be great if Jiuniang was here. I think Jiuniang will like it here very much."

Lu Chensheng was in a daze for a moment, thinking of the pretty woman standing in the peach grove, smiling at herself like a hundred flowers blooming.

"The shopkeeper, Jiu Niang is no longer there."

Gu Zhifang heard the words from the side and said something.

Lu Chensheng came back to his senses, looked at Gu Zhifang who was standing still, and his expression was slightly unwell.

"You talk too much"

Lu Chensheng was also short of breath. When he recalled it just now, he felt that Jiuniang's face was a little clearer, but it was just interrupted by such a guy, which was really annoying.

I was secretly annoyed, but looking at Gu Zhifang, I couldn't scold him, so I could only turn around and leave.

Lu Chensheng turned around and went back, it was getting late, and it was time to eat, Lu Chensheng was feeling a little hungry.

When Lu Chensheng walked towards the yard, he suddenly saw a group of people arguing in front of him.

From the looks of it, one of the people belonged to the Loulan country, and there was another group of people dressed in clothes they hadn't seen before, so they must be from a country that just came here.

However, those who can come with Loulan are probably one of the more powerful countries among the 36 countries.

"Go and ask what happened."

The previous transactions were all good, so why are there such quarrels this time.

Lu Chensheng was a little strange, so he sent someone to ask.

Hearing this, a servant at the side rushed over to inquire.

After a while, he returned to Lu Chensheng, and quickly replied, "The shopkeeper, it was the merchant from the Western Regions who brought two pieces of jade. I feel that the price we gave is too low."

"It's just two pieces of jade. Why are they so dissatisfied with the price if they are too big? When I gave the price before, I didn't see them have any opinions."

Lu Chensheng frowned and asked puzzledly.

They are rich in Hetian jade, which is also the best in jade.

Among them, when Lu Chensheng was trading, he also came across a few top-quality pieces, and now they are all carved by jade craftsmen and given to Qiongyue and the others, one for each of them.

That is, both daughters use it, but they both say that jade pendants support people, and these jade pendants are always carried by them.

Very atmospheric and beautiful.

Why now, the people here feel that the price is wrong again.

I haven't seen the other party have such an idea before.

"The jade this time is a bit different, like the Tongtianzhu. The merchant said he wanted one million taels of silver, and the other two are worth two million taels of silver, so this has not been discussed."

The servant replied quickly.

Lu Chensheng's expression was strange, "If it is really a jade stone like a pillar, then it will be 200 million taels of silver, which is enough."
