Xianyu Infrastructure, I have a lot of troops in my hands

Bai Lingjun and Xie Ze both knew that even if they figured it out, it might not be completely correct, but it was better than being completely in the dark.

The information collected by the Xie family here is limited to the Xie clan's land, while what they collected is more comprehensive.

But some families still refuse to cooperate. After all, they are already married, so even if they know it will affect their offspring, what can they do?

This kind of thing is a huge blow to the person involved. If it is a normal thing, it is okay. But if it happens that the person has problems with having children, asking about this at their home is like rubbing salt into the wound.

Even so, it still needs to be done, and if the matter is proven to be true, reporting it is necessary.

At this moment, Xie Xian was discussing the preparations for the coal mine agency with You Chun. The winter was already halfway through, and the bidding for the agency was for this year and next year.

The agency fees vary from region to region, and this time the competition will also be launched in the form of an auction.

There is no other way. In order to avoid arousing jealousy and to make businessmen have fewer worries, this is the only way.

You Chun waited here after the morning meeting. That day, Xie Xian asked a question that had no beginning or end, and then left.

This made You Chun think more, but now looking at Xie Xian's attitude towards him, it seemed no different from that of others.

But he knew that the queen had recruited a counselor after returning from suppressing bandits.

You Chun felt a sense of crisis about his position. Although he now held several positions, the job of mine steward made up for his shortcomings in management, and most importantly, he could stay by Xie Xian's side.

Tu Zhen rarely appeared during this period, and his hostility towards him and Ying Yi was not as strong.

But You Chun still didn't dare to tell Xie Xian his true identity. Seeing the girl in front of him having no grudge against him, You Chun felt quite annoyed.

Xie Xian was not curious about the private identities of the workers. As long as it did not affect her business, she had no interest in knowing.

In addition to local merchants, big merchants from Pingcheng also came to the coal bidding this time. Because of the experience from the last time, You Chun seemed more at ease. This time, for the regional agency of Xiejia Coal Mine, the merchants went out with a lot of money.

Xie Xian doesn't accept copper coins, so there's a craze for Xie's iron coins in Pingcheng.

Because iron coins are easy to convert, some people only collect a portion of them as a curiosity, but the value of the iron coins is equivalent to their face value, which inevitably makes shrewd businessmen have a good impression of the Xie family.

When doing business, everyone likes honest people.

But at the auction held at Guiyun Pavilion, everyone's stereotypes about the Xie family were quickly overturned, including auction rules, regional agents, and bidding prices.

Areas are divided into large and small areas according to their population density and prosperity.

Of course, this is only limited to a few cities around Chenjun, and Kangjian is too far away.

What Xie Xian didn't expect was that the agency area with the highest price was actually on the south bank of the Jianghuai River, where the winter is warmer than here.

But it still can't resist the rich people's pursuit of comfort.

Because coal is durable and cheap, it is more convenient to transport it from Chen County than from the north.

As for Kang Jian, since the large coal mines in the north were almost monopolized by major families, if they tried to occupy the market by force, they would be courting death, so Xie Xian kindly left a large blank market for both parties.

In this era, freight is too expensive, especially for bulk mineral transactions, where land freight is higher than the price of the goods.

Xie Xian still paid more attention to the cities near the Mesopotamian River Basin. As expected, Shuoyang was the closest and the bid was not much. However, there were several large cities with a population of over 10,000 in the Kaifeng and Fengqiu areas, and the agency rights were auctioned for 100,000 coins, a total of 10,000 gold.

And this is only for two years, because Xie Xian only provides wholesale prices, so how much you can earn from the rest depends on your own ability.

The further back in time, the crazier the auction of agency rights becomes.

"The total amount of this auction is 500,000 coins," You Chun handed over the account book. He was numb to these numbers.

Xie Xian leaned against the tea table and said lazily, "Yes, we will give out bonuses this time to make everyone happy."

Qingdai was shocked. With so much money, is the second branch of the Xie family finally going to become rich?

But there was no joy on Xie Xian's face. She opened the business plan and found that she didn't have many industries. Coal was a stable source of income, but the money was collected once every two years, so there would not be much each month.

We have already made the most money from trawling fishing. People will eventually learn how to trawle, and there are only a limited number of fish in the river. The fishing ban season is about to begin.

Although there are no explicit regulations in the government office, as a pure flower-growing Chinese who value harmonious coexistence with nature, it is natural for him to set an example himself.

In the coal industry, wholesalers are responsible for freight themselves, which frees up a large part of the manpower and allows her logistics plan to be rolled out slowly.

In the final analysis, Blackstone's material foundation is too weak, there is a shortage of meat, and everyone has no source of protein except digging in the soil, so factories are still needed to raise chickens, ducks, and livestock.

But there was no one on hand. Xie Xian frowned. Uncle Xie Liu could take charge of this logistics market. Most of the Black Stone Guards were in Tongguan and could come back.

Xie Xian sucked her teeth. Even though she was working for the imperial court, she was unhappy. Going to the clan's ancestral hall to visit Xie Yun, Xie Xian mentioned the grievances she had suffered in Qionglou Village, and whether the other half of the Black Stone Guard could be replaced earlier.

Xie Yun said that it was not a big deal, and finally found Uncle Xie Liu. He didn't know what the two discussed, and told Xie Xian to go back and wait for news.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Today was Xie Xian's class again, and it was also the day when the answer to the "Bloodline Theory" would be revealed.

Walking into the classroom, all the students, both male and female, were distracted. Xie Xian didn't know how much effort they had put into this matter, and their parents and relatives had been hit hard. What's more, their parents were cousins ​​within three generations.

Their inner torment.

Some people are curious whether Xie Xian's "bloodline theory" is correct and everyone can avoid it in the future. Some also hope that the "bloodline theory" is wrong, so that they can prove that they are not defective products.

Xie Xian looked at their haggard faces and nodded with satisfaction, "Hand in your homework."

She called Xie Yao up and asked him to read for her while she wrote.

As Xie Xian wrote down each stroke, more than half of the families had children who died or became sick. They knew that this was still the figure on the surface. In fact, the real data was far greater than 50%. The faces of the people in the hall gradually became worse.

Among them, Cui Ci from the Cui family was pale and shaky. Xie Jinyuan and others who were usually on good terms with him looked over with some concern.

The announcement on the stage continued, but every stroke of Xie Xian's hand seemed to be engraved in everyone's heart.

Everyone in the audience had a solemn look on their faces. When Xie Xian talked about the "bloodline theory" a few days ago, she looked casual and relaxed, but when they put it into practice, they realized that it was the blood and tears of countless families.

"Let's stop here today! You should know that the data we collected is only from within the Xie family. Because there is no official endorsement, the conclusions we obtained are too biased. However, the fact that everyone has achieved this has exceeded expectations."

Seeing that they looked like they were about to cry, Xie Xian quickly said a few words, gave them symbolic comfort, and then turned around and ran away. She was not good at doing this.
