    Wancheng Shipyard.

    Although the weather was still cloudless, Zheng Yue still felt particularly irritable for some reason.

    The mother¡¯s condition at home has worsened, but she doesn¡¯t even have enough money to sell medicine.

    We can¡¯t get out the money for the children¡¯s private school now, so we can only let the children stay at home and send them there when we have more money in the future.

    In addition, the wife at home also complained repeatedly. As a master-level shipbuilder, she only received half a gold salary per month, which was really embarrassing.

    When his wife married him, Zheng Yue also vowed to give her a good life, but now this promise can obviously not be fulfilled.

    There are still countless things to do in today¡¯s shipyards, but there are certain working hours. If there are not enough working hours, even the half-gold monthly payment will be gone.

    In desperation, he could only do odd jobs after get off work to make up for his family¡¯s expenses.

    It¡¯s not that no other shipyards took a fancy to him at the beginning. It can even be said that there were even people in the county who invited him and gave him two gold per month. However, he refused because his mother was ill at home.

    "Foreman Zheng, here is a letter from the county magistrate to you."

    Just when Zheng Yue was in a daze, a man dressed as a servant came over and handed him a letter.

    "Okay, I understand." Zheng Yue nodded and said with a smile after taking the letter.

    He still has some friendship with the county magistrate. When his mother first fell ill, she needed hardware to pay for medicine, but the family really didn¡¯t have that much savings.

    Then the county magistrate came forward and took out one month's money from his own monthly money, and then the matter was resolved.

    The county magistrate himself is very popular in the entire Anhui city, firstly because he is a local, and secondly because of his refreshing personality. In comparison, the county magistrate is simply a good man.

    More than ten days ago, he invited himself to his house for two glasses of wine. He still remembers the name of the wine [Qian Jun Zui]. Even that glass is worth one gold, but the taste is also like nectar and jade dew.  .

    Zheng Yue also opened the letter and began to study it slowly. He still knew the basic words and was considered a cultural person. Otherwise, he would not be a shipbuilder at the level of a master.

    The more he read, the happier he became, and his heart was completely shaken.

    There is no need for the county magistrate to lie to a craftsman who has nothing, so this matter should be true.

    Having ten gold coins a month, and being so close to home, this is simply something you can¡¯t even dream of.

    At the end of the letter, the county magistrate also said jokingly that after arriving at Shuobai Village, he would have enough drinks.

    This drink is the one he drank before, the kind of [Qianjun Zui] that weighs ten kilograms per jar. With such a good thing, how could he not be willing to do so.

    As for the current position, it¡¯s okay not to do it, otherwise your good skills will be completely wasted, and you will be scorned by the petty officials in the county government.

    However, the letter also said that he could bring other shipbuilders from the shipyard with him, but he could not go there all at once, otherwise the county magistrate would definitely find out.

    After making up his mind, Zheng Yue immediately took his tools and returned home.

    At first, his wife complained about why he had to come back so early, but later she didn¡¯t believe Zheng Yue¡¯s words.

    You have a mud leg, and how can you have a month of work for a month?  Not even those officials.

    This sentence was the last thing his wife said before he left home, but on the other hand, his old mother was very supportive of him and hoped that he would go out and have a look, and it was not too far from home.

    It was still noon, and Zheng Yue also followed the directions in the letter to find the Shuobai Village. However, he had never heard of this village before, and he began to have some doubts in his heart.

    The foot of Tianzhu Mountain is not an uncultivated wilderness, but there are also many bandits entrenched there. How could there be such a good place?

    This is the truest thing in Zheng Yue¡¯s heart. The further he goes inside, the more doubts he has in his heart. There is no village in sight at all.

    However, he stopped in front of a valley. Looking at the valley with dozens of soldiers stationed in front of him, his steps were a little trembling

    "These soldiers don't look like they are easy to mess with. Each of them has an upright upper body and is filled with the temperament of a real soldier. They are very different from those soldiers in the county who can stand crookedly.

    Finally, he mustered up the courage and walked towards the soldiers. The soldiers looked at Zheng Yue with serious faces and were very wary.

    It wasn¡¯t until Zheng Yue took out the letter that the soldiers¡¯ faces really became better, and they began to chat with Zheng Yue in an approachable manner.

    Slowly, Zheng Yue relaxed a lot, and when he learned that many of these soldiers were from Wancheng County, he finally felt relieved.

    The more he chatted with the soldiers, the better their attitude toward Zheng Yue became.

    When Zheng Yue said that he was a master-level shipbuilder, the soldiers looked at Zheng Yue with envy.

    After their introduction, Zheng Yue learned that the status of craftsmen in this village was also very high, even similar to that of scholars, and the wages were also terrifyingly high.

    Not only that, but the various benefits in this village also made Zheng Yue feel like he was in paradise. Children go to private schools for free, and their parents are given money?  Do you still have special care for craftsmen?  Can the elderly and orphans receive proper care?

    Each and every one of these things made him feel like he was in another world, something completely unheard of and unseen.

    "Zheng Yue was able to enter only after the soldier who went in to communicate came out.

    As soon as he entered the valley, he saw the neat streets, orderly houses, and villagers with smiles on their faces. Zheng Yue also eliminated all his previous doubts.

    Even if you don¡¯t give him monthly money, he still wants to come here!

    The village chief of Shuobai Village also came to receive him personally, and his attitude towards him was very good, and he was not arrogant at all. This was very useful to a small craftsman like him.

    Even after knowing that what Qin Shuo wanted to build was a warship, he still did not refuse, but happily agreed.

    The magistrate of Wancheng County can be said to be very unpopular now. Basically, everyone is very enthusiastic about this kind of thing that is close to rebellion.

    When Qin Shuo learned about the situation at his home, he also withdrew two months' monthly money in advance and gave him a full twenty gold, asking him to take care of everything at home before coming to him.

    "How is it? I said that was a liar, right?" The wife looked at Zheng Yue who was returning with a mocking tone and said.

    "Yes, it's a liar." Zheng Yue glanced at her casually and said indifferently.

    "According to me, you should stay in that shipyard peacefully for the rest of your life. This is our fate." When her wife saw Zheng Yue's look, she thought he was hurt by her words, so she comforted him.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Zheng Yue threw the bag he brought back on the ground. After a loud noise, the bag fell apart, revealing all the yellow coins inside.

    "This." His wife looked at Zheng Yue with an expression of disbelief on her face.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
