Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 17 Life

After dinner, Zhang Tie didn't go anywhere, just chatting with his parents and brother at home. While chatting, the family teased the little guy crawling around on the mat on the ground. Hungry and warm.

Regarding the kidnapping of Zhang Yang, Zhang Tie's parents have never known that it was actually related to Zhang Tie, and they didn't know that Zhang Tie encountered more danger than Zhang Yang that day. It made them worry, so I just used the spring and autumn brushwork to write it down.

At this time, Zhang Tie’s family had already hired a servant named Mrs. Zhen, who was introduced by Zhang Tie’s uncle. She was responsible, hardworking, and clean, with a monthly salary of 56 silver coins. , Seeing Zhang Tie's family sitting in the living room, Mrs. Zhen had already brought up the cut fruits.

At the beginning, Zhang Tie's mother was the one who was most reluctant to hire a servant, especially when she thought of the dozens of silver coins that would be spent every month after hiring a servant, Zhang Tie's mother felt very distressed.

In Heiyan City, Zhang Tie's mother, who was used to living frugally and frugally, was not used to this kind of life of paying for servants, but Zhang Tie's sister-in-law's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and Zhang Tie's elder brother and The fathers each have their own jobs, and they usually don’t spend much time at home. Zhang Tie’s mother has to take care of the handicapped sister-in-law and make meals for the whole family. Zhang Tie’s mother is so busy. Agreed to invite a person.

A half-year-old child is the most troublesome. For the past six months, Zhang Tie's sister-in-law and Zhang Tie's mother have been taking care of this child. It is fine during the day, but at night, when everyone falls asleep, this kid regains his spirits. Zhang Tie's sister-in-law can only take care of the one who gets up and urinates alone. This person can't sleep well at night for a long time, and his energy is down. When Zhang Tie came back this time, he found that his sister-in-law His face was a little haggard.

A family lives together, usually these trivial matters.

In the past two days, before Zhang Tie came back, Zhang Tie's sister-in-law and Zhang Yang were discussing about hiring another nanny, fearing that Zhang Tie's mother would disagree, so they were beating around the bush to do Zhang Tie's mother's work.

Zhang Tie came back today and saw his mother happy. Zhang Tie's sister-in-law talked about hiring a nanny for Zhang Chengan again. Unexpectedly, Zhang Tie's mother immediately agreed when she mentioned it this time, and the whole family was very happy.

"You need to choose a good babysitter. You must be careful and patient when taking care of the children. Just a while ago, your dad and I found your uncle and the others in Xince City. Your uncle and his family have many children, and your aunt is always sick in bed. It is more difficult financially!" Zhang Tie's mother looked at Zhang Yang and said, "You and Zhang Tie have a cousin who has never met, she is very decent, she is in her thirties, and she has been working as a childcare worker for others in the street kindergarten. Work, not to mention the hard work, the monthly salary is only more than 40 silver coins, if you want to hire a nanny, why not call your cousin, the family can rest assured!"

"Mom, you can do whatever you want!" Zhang Yang said straightforwardly, "I'll go to Xince City sometime, and invite my uncle and his family to sit at home!"

When Zhang Tie came home today, he just found out that his mother had found the news of his uncle’s family in Xince City. Originally, Zhang Tie wanted to ask how his grandparents were doing. Zhang Tie stopped his mouth for a touch of sadness, knowing the answer.

After 30 years of leaving Huaiyuan County, Zhang Tie knew that his grandparents must have left the world one after another before his mother came back. If this was not the case, there would not be such sadness hidden in his mother's expression.

"Mom, who else is in uncle's family?" Zhang Tie asked again.

"Your uncle has four sons and three daughters. Both daughters are married, and the three sons have their own families. The only ones who stay with your uncle and aunt are you, a cousin, and a cousin. Your cousin works in kindergarten. Childcare worker, that cousin of yours is idle and has no formal job. Your aunt is sick in bed all year round, and your uncle found a job delivering newspapers to take care of the family while working! You and your brother can help them if they are able. !"

"Mom, don't worry, I believe life in your uncle's family will get better. My mother's natal family, how can my brother and I watch them suffer? Wait for the two sides to move around more and understand the situation first. It's not too late to find a way!" Zhang Tie comforted his mother, "By the way, what disease does my aunt have?"

"Your aunt used to work in the ice factory. After staying there for a long time, she suffered from severe rheumatism and arthritis. Now she can hardly even walk!" Zhang Tie's mother sighed.

For rheumatism and arthritis, Zhang Tie laughed when he heard this answer. Other diseases can't be cured by themselves. Isn't it a matter of a few full-effect medicines for such a small disease? This matter is not urgent, after a few days, I can find time to send a batch of full-effect medicine to my family. Not only aunts, but also parents at home can use it.

In the communication with his family, Zhang Tie also knew the details of his father and brother in the past six months.

After Zhang Tie's father had been idle at home for a while, he finally couldn't be idle anymore. He went outside to find a job as a material engineer in an airship manufacturing company, and continued his old job. This new job The enthusiasm of Zhang Tie's father was rekindled. In the second half of the chat this evening, most of the time Zhang Tie's father was talking about making airships with great interest. In the words of Zhang Tie's father, this is comparable to the previous That job is much more interesting. Moreover, there are many young people in the company, which makes him full of vigor.

During the chat, Zhang Tie joked with his father——Since you like building airships so much, my son will help you buy that company someday and let you be the boss, so you can do whatever you want?

Zhang Tie's words were almost knocked on the head by his father again - although the company where his father works is a small airship, but its scale is not small, the company employs more than 700 people, and the total assets More than 300,000 gold coins, more than 300,000 gold coins, you can buy it when you say it, do you think it’s a play?

Zhang Tie smiled and stopped talking.

As for Zhang Tie's elder brother, Zhang Yang, he registered a trading company in the past six months and began to slowly get involved in the trade of food and medicine products. After half a year of exploration, he slowly gained a firm foothold.

The name of Zhang Yang’s registered business company is Jinwu Trading Company. Jinwu means the sun. In Chinese mythology, this is another kind of animal that lives on the sun. Chinese people in this era like to use allusions or stories in mythology. Give the organization or collective a name, such as Jinpeng Bank and the like.

Moreover, the gold and black characters of Jinwu imply the word "iron" in Zhang Tie's name, because iron is a kind of metal, and it is a black metal, and it is appropriate to express it with the words Jinwu, which has a special charm .

When the golden crows are connected together to form the sun, it also implies the word "Yang" in Zhang Yang's name. This name includes both Zhang Tie brothers, and also represents the weight of the two brothers in the business company.

The name of the Golden Crow Trading Company was thought up by Zhang Yang after more than two weeks of patting his head. Zhang Yang was very proud of the name he had chosen. He had also poured a lot of effort into the trading company in the past six months. The current main business of the trading company is The most fundamental reason why the business is placed on the trade of food and medicine products comes from a judgment that Zhang Tie told Zhang Yang before-the third holy war of the human race is coming soon!

Looking at the previous two jihads, what are the most important materials in jihads? There are only three items—food, medicine, and weapons. In every jihad, companies involved in these three industries, whether it is an enterprise or a business group, can achieve great development.

Zhang Yang's bet on the food and pharmaceutical industries that he is targeting is that these two industries will only become more and more important in the future, and the supply of all things will be in short supply.

The arms and munitions industry is naturally more profitable, but with the current strength of the Golden Crow Merchant Group, it is not yet qualified to get involved in this industry that requires a lot of capital and a strong background to play well. It just starts with the relatively low threshold of food and Start with medicinal products.

The marine fishery processing and marine biomedicine industries in Huaiyuan County located in the coastal area are very developed, which provides great convenience for Jinwu Trading Co., Ltd. to set foot in these two industries.

At present, the main trading commodities of Jinwu Trading Company are several kinds of canned fish that can be kept fresh for a long time, and the other is a special sea anemone-like biotoxin agent. The latter can be used on a large scale In the processing of weapons in war, the lethality of weapons can be increased-this kind of lethality is equally effective whether it is against demons or humans.

The Golden Crow Trading Company has now opened up some opportunities and established some customer relationships. In the next step, according to Zhang Yang’s plan, the Golden Crow Trading Company will extend to the upstream industry chain of the food and medicine processing industry. Quanhe's most popular ones are not pure trade middlemen, but the controllers of those resources.

Zhang Yang decided to acquire or build a canning factory first, and then set up a small ocean-going fishing fleet, from fishing, to processing and production, to sales, to complete the control of every important link involved in the production of a canned fish.

In this kind of face-to-face communication with family members, time always passes quickly. Unknowingly, the family sits together and chats until after eleven o’clock. Seeing that the time is almost the same, Zhang Tie’s father will return tomorrow. To go to work, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

Before returning to his room, Zhang Tie asked his mother, "Mom, is there any spirits at home?"

"Yes, it's in the kitchen. Your dad bought it and kept it for brewing medicinal wine. Why do you ask this?"

"I want some!"

"You're going to bed, and you still want to drink?" Zhang Tie's mother looked at Zhang Tie reproachfully.

"No, I practiced a combat skill in Qianlongtang. When practicing, I need to wipe my body with spirits, which is used to cool down the body! I will stay at home for a few days this time, so I can't let the practice go! "Zhang Tie said nonsense. Anyway, he believed that no one would doubt his words. As for why spirits are used instead of alcohol to cool down, who the hell knows, perhaps spirits are more nutritious than alcohol. Think for yourself.

Hearing that Zhang Tie was going to stay at home for a few days this time, Zhang Tie's mother suddenly laughed with satisfaction, "The wine is in the wine cabinet next to the kitchen, it's not enough, I'll buy it for you tomorrow!"

"One or two bottles of wine is enough!" Zhang Tie smiled, and after saying goodnight to his family, he went to the wine cabinet next to the kitchen, found two bottles of spirits marked 61% in low-grade liquor bottles, and took I went back to my room...

Congratulations to "a", becoming the lord of the Black Iron Fort, overcoming all obstacles and finally becoming the dominant player!
