Chapter 18 Casting the Foundation

Du Yu cashed in a few jade pendants and got five million in cash.

He was very happy and felt that he had done the right thing by robbing the birthday card.

A few pieces of ancient jade are so valuable, so how much should the gold beads and corals in the birth chart be worth.

Du Yu felt beautiful when he thought about it. Looking at the balance of more than 6 million in the mobile bank, he felt that he was one step closer to financial freedom.

Of course, he had just received five million, so he didn't need to rush to cash in the remaining treasures.

After returning home, this guy sat in front of the computer, looked up information, and started preparing to build the foundation of his own 'career'.

Since you are preparing to do big things in the world of Water Margin, you must be prepared, especially in terms of materials.

Considering the time factor and the environment of the Song Dynasty, what Shaohua Mountain urgently needs is not weapons and armor, but food, oil and other materials to maintain the survival of the village's minions.

Considering that he had already opened a grain and oil store, Du Yu decided to expand the scale of the business. First, he could have a legitimate income that could withstand inspection. Second, the grain business could also provide him with a cover for transporting materials.

After some thinking, he decided to open a small trading company by taking advantage of Haicheng Port's large volume of cargo handled every day.

As soon as he thought of it, Du Yu found the agency he had worked with the next day and asked them to help with the procedures.

He ran to his hometown in the countryside, Yanhe Town, where he still had a compound, which was a legacy left to him by his grandfather.

Apart from planting vegetables in the yard every spring, this guy rarely came back to live. He only lived in the town for a while during the two years when his illness was the most serious.

Du Yu contacted an hourly worker to tidy up the house again. He planned to use this place as a transit point for transferring supplies to the Water Margin world.

Of course, opening a company requires a formal warehouse, so he decided to rent one in the town and use it first.

Whether it is a grain and oil store or a trading company, in his opinion, they are all tools for providing supplies. The real money maker is still in the Water Margin world.

Therefore, he doesn't care about convenience, as long as it's cheap and usable, that's better than anything else.

The formalities had to wait for a while, so Du Yu went to Haicheng Wholesale Market and bought some suet and took it back.

With his constant supply of carbohydrates and fats to the minions on Shaohua Mountain, the physical fitness of these soldiers has been continuously improved, and the quality of training has also been improved, and they are making great strides towards becoming elite soldiers.

Du Yu took advantage of the time difference between the two worlds to calm down and practice the inner alchemy method taught to him by Master Luo.

In the blink of an eye, two months have passed, and this guy has personally experienced the harvest scene of the Song Dynasty.

The villagers and tenants in Shijia Village are very busy, but unfortunately, due to the rudimentary tools in their hands and the lack of the help of modern machinery, the efficiency is really not high.

Manual harvesting, drying, and threshing are really sweaty and dusty, and the most feared thing when harvesting wheat is rain.

Upon seeing this, this guy immediately returned to modern time and space, and bought a batch of tools to solve his urgent need.

Even though they are all hand tools, how can those made by forging ancient irons compare to the products produced in modern industrial standards?

With those farm tools, production efficiency was greatly improved, and in less than twenty days, nearly a thousand acres of the Shi family's fields were harvested.

In order to collect more green grain, Du Yu also opened the granary to purchase the surplus grain from the tenants.

Of course, as soon as the harvest was completed, Mr. Wang from Huayin County immediately came down to collect taxes.

Fortunately, this guy has the "official position" of the regiment training envoy, and Wang Qing'an has given him a discount on taxes, which is a reward for his frequent visits to give gifts.

Du Yu secretly investigated in Shijiacun and found that the people of the Song Dynasty were indeed pitiful. They had just handed over most of the money and food in their hands just a few days after harvesting, and they had not yet grasped the heat. It is no wonder that slogans such as equalizing land and freeing taxes can be so deceptive.

.

In this way, he found another reason for himself to replace Zhao Song.

It's just that the time is not ripe yet and it's not yet time to act, so he can only lie dormant and wait for the opportunity.

After counting the days, Du Yu felt that things at the intermediary company should be almost done, so he used the Tongjieshen money to return to modern time and space.

As he expected, professional people do professional things quickly.

After more than a week of work, the procedures have been completed, and the company's address is here in Yanhe Town.

Du Yu planned to use it as a cover and basically did not expect the trading company to make money.

However, he still rented a warehouse with an area of ​​2,000 square meters.

It's not that this guy has a lot of money, but that the warehouses in the town are cheap. The annual rent for such a large warehouse is just over 300,000 yuan.

Du Yu directly signed a three-year contract when he had money in hand, which was a win-win situation for the homeowner.

After paying, he contacted the foreign trade company at the port and soon ordered a batch of imported wheat from a large company to fill the entire warehouse, solving the food problem in Shaohua Mountain.

When Du Yu was busy working alone, he lamented that he had no foundation and no one who could help him.

In this case, there is no talking about becoming bigger and stronger. It is no wonder that those successful big guys have a core team.

In a short period of time, Du Yu felt that this was the end of his career in modern time and space. If he wanted to develop, he had to first clear up the grain store.

On the other hand, in Shijia Village and Shaohua Mountain, he felt that it was necessary to teach the villagers, villagers and minions how to read.

Only by cultivating talents who are loyal to themselves and forming a core team can the 'career' become bigger and stronger.

Just like Zhao Kuangyin, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, when the time came, he could turn Chen Qiao into a soldier and wear a yellow robe without taking any action himself.

Thinking of this, Du Yu ordered a batch of books online and planned to open a private school in Shijia Village and Shaohua Mountain.

Returning to the Water Margin world, he first quietly went up the mountain to put down the books, and then discussed the matter with Zhu Wu, the divine machine strategist.

In the Water Margin novel, Zhu Wu ranked first among the evil spirits on the earth. There is also a hymn that says: Taoist uniforms are cut with palm leaves, and cloud crowns are cut with deer skins. The face is red and the eyes are handsome, the face is white and the beard is thin. The wisdom can be spread.

After a good comparison, Fan Li was bullied. All the troops fell into ambush, and Zhu Wu's magic machine was revealed.

As a wise general, Shenji Military Advisor is naturally literate.

Zhu Wu was surprised by Du Yu's suggestion. After hearing his explanation, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He originally thought that 'Shi Jin' was just playing a game with the government to encourage the bandits to respect themselves, but then he thought that Jiu Wenlong actually had the ambition to reach the top and really wanted to do something big.

He had seen through the corruption and incompetence of the Song Dynasty officialdom, but he only thought about the officials being deceived by treacherous ministers, and did not think about transgression.

After thinking over and over again, Zhu Wu suddenly made up his mind that instead of dying quietly like an insect, it would be better to follow "Shi Jin" and do something vigorously.

"Brother, I would like to be a teacher in the village and teach the brothers how to read and write." Zhu Wu said.

"It seems that brothers know my ambition, and 'Shi Jin' is here to show his attitude. If one day comes, he will definitely live up to the brothers in the village." Du Yu said.

"Don't worry, brother, if you leave this matter to me, I will do my best," Zhu Wu said.

Du Yu nodded and believed that Zhu Wu was a smart man, especially after he showed off his 'Taoist magic', he probably believed that he was favored by destiny.

"Then thank you for your trouble, brother," Du Yu said.

After the two discussed it, they called Chen Da, Yang Chun, and Han Bolong over to explain the matter again.

It's okay for Yang Chun to have a calm temperament. Chen Da, a brash man, was very unhappy when he heard that he also wanted to study and learn to read.

But in front of his eldest brother ‘Shi Jin’, he didn’t dare to have an attack, so he had to bite the bullet and agree.

What surprised Du Yu was that Han Bolong could actually read and had a little ink in his stomach. He could be an enlightenment teacher and help Zhu Wu share a lot of work.

After the village leaders decided on the plan, Shaohua Mountain immediately took action.

Those rough guys no longer have nothing to do after training, but hold books in their hands and shake their heads to learn cultural knowledge.

It's just that these people's foundation is too weak and they can only learn from literacy.

Fortunately, people in this era are simple-minded and eager to learn knowledge, so there is no resistance to its promotion.

After arranging the cottage, Du Yu returned to Shijiacun.

In the name of doing good deeds, he decided to build a private school next to the Shijia Courtyard to teach village children and village heroes free of charge.

As soon as this decision was made public, it immediately caused a sensation in Shijiacun.

After all, the Song Dynasty was a dynasty where everyone was inferior in everything but educated. It was a great thing for the village owner to show his kindness and build a private school for free.

The villagers of the village did not even need to take action, and the people in the village spontaneously helped, and soon a large courtyard was built that could accommodate a hundred people.

Du Yu did not break his promise. He bought a bunch of enlightenment books in Huayin County and hired a failed scholar as his teacher to start education popularization work in Shijiacun.

Many years later, when he reflected on this move, he realized that his success in the Water Margin world was due to the foundation created by education.
