Chapter 61 The energy of thanks
The idiot Chu Tianshu came to the frog shop where the three of them often met. It was already half past ten.
The two girls bought a lot of snacks today. When Chu Tianshu arrived, there were already a lot of bones and fruit shells piled in front of them.
Obviously, the two of them have been waiting for a long time.
"Why are you here so late today?" Gu Feixue asked dissatisfied.
"I have something to do today." Chu Tianshu brought a nut, opened the shell and handed the pulp to Gu Feixue.
Gu Feixue ate it with an "Ahhh" sound. While chewing, she asked, "What's going on?"
"Miss Six asked me to help her restructure the factory," Chu Tianshu said, "to increase revenue."
"Increase revenue?" Gu Feixue looked Chu Tianshu up and down: "Can you do that?"
"I definitely can't." Chu Tianshu shook his head: "So we still need the help of the lovely Miss Gu."
During this period, Xie Ningzi opened her mouth several times to speak.
Gu Feixue saw it in her eyes and smiled on her face.
"You want to ask me for help?" Gu Feixue smiled: "Then you have to have an attitude of asking for help, right?"
"The production of skateboards and roller skates takes some time," Chu Tianshu said.
Of course, skateboards and roller skates have not actually been produced yet.
"It's not that." Gu Feixue shouted: "I spent money to buy those two, they are mine originally, do you want you to take my things to please me?"
"What does Miss Gu mean?" Chu Tianshu stretched his head.
"Let me test you first. Do you think there is anything different today?" Gu Feixue raised her head.
Chu Tianshu looked at the other person up and down.
Apart from changing clothes every day, he didn't notice any difference.
When I looked sideways and saw Xie Ningzi, I was immediately surprised.
The girl seems to have changed her makeup today, her face is still pretty, but her eyes seem to be brighter than yesterday, and the corners of her eyes seem to have a more peach-like pink color. With the goose-yellow skirt on her body, she looks a little more ordinary.
There is no charm.
Xie Ningzi noticed Chu Tianshu's gaze and immediately smiled with a sweet smile.
"Miss Gu seems to have not changed much, she is still very cute."
"Hmph." Gu Feixue sneered: "How dare you say that? If your eyes are glued to others, of course you won't be able to see my changes."
"Um..." Chu Tianshu smiled awkwardly: "So what is it about Miss Gu that is different from usual?"
"Nowhere." Gu Feixue said calmly: "I didn't ask you to look at me in the first place."
The little girl said calmly: "Can you notice her makeup? Can you see the difference?"
"Um."
"Then it makes sense that she got up early in the morning to choose clothes, then sat in front of the mirror for two hours, and didn't dare to open her mouth wider when eating."
Gu Feixue said as she ate the frog with big mouthfuls.
Xie Ningzi's face turned red with embarrassment.
Chu Tianshu looked at Xie Ningzi.
The feelings may indeed be felt.
It really makes my heart feel good to have someone who cares so much for me.
But with the other party's age and status, Chu Tianshu didn't dare to have the slightest thought.
He just smiled at her and looked away.
Xie Ningzi just laughed when she saw this.
"Silly, you two people don't know what they are thinking." Gu Feixue said contemptuously: "How big is the factory you are responsible for?"
"With a staff of 670, it is a small factory, a steel plant, but its main business is gun orders from the imperial court."
"Is that so?" Gu Feixue frowned: "July 1st is the Yuanwang Festival."
"Is there any problem with Yuan Wang Festival?" Chu Tianshu asked.
Today is June 18th.
Dayun Dynasty has twenty-four days in a month, and there are only six days left.
However, although Yuanwang Festival is a big festival, there is no rule that workers are not allowed to work, right?
"At the beginning of July, it's the Yuanwang Festival." Gu Feixue explained: "The imperial court will have a meeting at the beginning of the month."
"I heard before that the parliament decided to go to war."
"On the Yuanwang Festival, it is probably the time for the 'Kings' Meeting' to submit the battle plan and the date of the war to the following six meetings."
"The delivery of orders has stopped?"
"Yes." Gu Feixue nodded: "It seems to have stopped after the 15th."
Chu Tianshu frowned: "Then..."
"The factory you manage...does it have any other orders besides orders from the court?"
"It seems there is no more." Chu Tianshu shook his head.
Chiyang Iron and Steel Works survives purely on orders from the imperial court.
Without orders from the imperial court, this small factory would not be very competitive in the market.
"Then there is another way." Xie Ningzi said at this time.
"What?" Gu Feixue was confused.
What she doesn't even know, can Xie Ningzi, a guy who stays at home all day long doing homework, know?
What can she do?
"Do you know what happened in Cenyang County?"
Cenyang County.
If I remember correctly, it should be the... jurisdiction of Xie Ningzi's father, Xie Qingyun, during his lifetime?
"Isn't Cenyang County the place your father used to govern?" Gu Feixue asked, "I remember your father used to be the chief minister of that place."
"Yes." Xie Ningzi said, still feeling a little sad: "My dad was indeed there before... Bailiu Province, Bailiu Province in Cenyang County, suffered from drought last year."
"During the drought, a large number of farmers sold their land in order to survive and were on the verge of bankruptcy."
Chu Tianshu remembered.
Qi Yingzhi seemed to have mentioned this matter to herself.
But I just said that at the time...
"These farmers, when my father was alive..." Xie Ningzi said and became sad: "...my father often said that he could not help them keep their fields. It was he who was the chief advisor who could not bear with those farmers.
.”
"But since farmers have gone bankrupt, their next step is to enter factories, become workers, and support their families."
"so……"
"So the factory over there has tax incentives?" Chu Tianshu asked.
Generally speaking, when the government encounters this kind of situation, the first reaction is to reduce or reduce taxes to ensure people's livelihood.
Since there is no way to stop land annexation, it might be better to change the idea and gather landless farmers in agriculture into industry.
"Yes." Xie Ningzi nodded: "I remember what my dad said at the time that he would open more yarn mills there. The government and some private landlords would jointly set up yarn mills, and provide land and agricultural tax incentives.
We also temporarily opened up private lending qualifications and asked local landowners to use the money to set up factories."
Granting preferential treatment and allocating social resources to provide jobs is a very reasonable approach.
"Besides, before my father passed away, he also reduced the quota for the cotton mill, so the cotton mill's cloth will not have to worry about marketability."
"So, you want to make a loom?" Chu Tianshu nodded: "Is that so?"
"That's right!" Xie Ningzi looked at Chu Tianshu with a sweet smile on her face: "You are so awesome. You have already thought of it before I even said it."
Chu Tianshu patted her hand: "Which part of the loom needs to be made by the steel factory? Are there any specific specifications?"
Xie Ningzi shook her head: "Not yet."
"I actually don't know much about it."
"But I can go find someone to ask."
Chu Tianshu looked at Xie Ningzi.
"He is my father's former friend. If you ask him for money, he may not have it, but he will not fail to help with such a small matter."
"Don't worry, I will definitely get the order and specifications for you."
Chu Tianshu looked at Xie Ningzi.
really!
