In the west courtyard of the Zhao Mansion.

Zhao Hao and Tang Youde ate fruit while telling him about their business in the capital.

Tang Youde was stunned after hearing this, and felt like he didn't even know how to flatter anymore.

The young master's ability to turn decay into magic is unprecedented and amazing - just by making a pile of coal powder and yellow mud, he can make a net profit of 50,000 taels a month, although it has to be divided between the two families.

But that's pretty awesome, right? That means he's cheating Mr. Liu more than once a month!

But Mr. Liu is not often seen, but coal lotus is available every month...

If Tang Youde knew that Zhao Hao's original white sugar was made from yellow mud and brown sugar, what would he think?

Do you think that Gongzi is the best person in history at playing with mud after Nuwa?

When Fatty Tang finally thought of some flattering words, he heard the young master sigh and say:

"But now that the weather is not so cold, people don't need to burn fires to keep warm, and they only need to cook. I guess many coal companies don't need so many workers anymore."

"Yes, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and business is definitely affected."

Tang Youde nodded, thinking that it was a good thing that this was a seasonal business, otherwise Old Tang would have wanted to die if he hadn’t gotten involved.

"But our business will not be affected." Mr. Zhao said with a proud smile:

"Our coal is of the best quality, and the coal yard is located next to the Marco Polo Bridge. From Tianjin to Linqing to the farthest Weihui Prefecture, wherever there is shipping, there are merchants coming to pick up goods. The situation of supply exceeding demand will not change just because of the hot weather... The coal yard wanted to increase production several times, but I suppressed it every time."

"Really? Then why don't you make money?" Tang Youde originally thought that he was ready to start his career. But when he came to Beijing, he found that he couldn't keep up with the pace of the master.

"The coal lotus root has already opened up the market inside and outside the capital. This young master is not very interested in making money by doing nothing." Zhao Hao spat out a cherry pit and said, "We have to have a tough job."

"Hehe, Old Tang dreams of making money lying down." Tang Youde said with a wry smile: "Compared with the young master, this realm is completely different."

Before he could finish his words, two angry voices were heard at the same time.

"Shut up, stop talking nonsense, my master cannot bear to hear foul language!"

"My son is still a child, why don't you slap him in the face!"

Tang Youde turned his head blankly, and saw a big white fat man and a small black fat man walking in angrily from outside.

Of course, they are Sun Dawu and Guo Da who have vowed to escort the young master during his prime.

Fatty Tang looked at Fatty Sun warily, and they both sensed the threat from each other.

As the saying goes, there can't be two fat people in one mountain, unless the food is great.

Fortunately, Zhao Hao's food was not bad. The two fat men quickly suppressed their hostility and turned to Zhao Hao with a flattering smile:

"Sir, is this the Steward Sun you mentioned?"

"Sir, this is Boss Tang from Jinling, right?"

"That's right. From now on, you two will live together in Xishan." Zhao Hao smiled at the two fat guys and said, "Get along well with each other."

"Don't worry, sir. I definitely respect Boss Tang."

"Don't worry, sir. Old Tang and Old Sun look so similar, they must have similar personalities."

"Hahaha, Boss Tang is really good at talking. I've admired you for a long time."

“Same here, please take care of each other, hahahaha.”

The two fat guys exchanged greetings and then became friendly, as if they really got along well.

Guo Da took the opportunity to approach Zhao Hao, greeted him and asked with a smile: "Excuse me, sir, what do you want me to do?"

"Last time I promised you the shares, I discussed it with my godmother." Zhao Hao cleared his throat and said casually, "You can subscribe for 500 shares."

"Thank you, young master, for your generous gift!" Guo Da was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He was running between the coal yard and the city and had no time to take care of Xishan. He thought that the young master would not give him anything.

"As for Old Sun." Zhao Hao looked at Sun Dawu again.

Sun Dawu quickly left Fatty Tang and came over, looking at Zhao Hao with anticipation.

"You have made great contributions in acquiring the coal mine, so you can subscribe for 1,000 shares." Zhao Hao said casually, "If you can't raise the money right away, I can lend it to you first."

"One thousand shares?" Sun Dawu was overjoyed. One thousand shares may not seem like much, only one percent of the total share capital, but how big is the Xishan Coal Industry?

Even if there is no further development in the future, Xishan Coal Industry, which owns 1%, still has more than 30 "abandoned" coal mines, and his wealth will catch up with that of the current largest coal boss in Xishan.

Although it was a bit difficult for him to pay 10,000 taels of silver, he couldn't afford to buy one less share no matter how difficult it was!

"Thank you very much for the reward! I will try my best to collect it. If I really can't, I will ask you again." Sun Dawu was so happy that his mouth was grinning from ear to ear. He felt that the hard work of sleeping in the open air for the past few months was totally worth it!

Zhao Hao looked at Fatty Tang again and said with a smile, "I originally wanted to call you here after leaving your home and career behind, and I was going to give you something, but I haven't settled the account with you for yesterday... You won't get a share this time, wait for the approval later."

"Alas, Old Tang accepts the punishment." Fatty Tang looked miserable, but his heart was warm. He secretly thought that the young master still treated Old Tang as his own family...

He got shares right after he arrived. If he got less, it would be meaningless. If he got more, he might make the two managers who followed Zhao Hao to start a business in Beijing unhappy.

If Zhao Hao finds a reason to slow down first, it can eliminate a lot of hostility towards him and help him integrate into the environment faster.

Anyway, what he deserves will definitely be given to him. If he gets it before the end of the year, even a penny of dividend will be a lot...

This is the strong confidence that I have built up in Mr. Zhao after many collaborations.

After the shares were distributed, Zhao Hao divided the work between Fatty Tang and Fatty Sun.

Fatty Sun is still fully responsible for the acquisition of abandoned coal kilns, while Fatty Tang is responsible for building the corporate structure of "Royal Xishan Coal Industry" in Zhaitang.

When Zhao Hao was in Jinling, he had already instilled a series of concepts such as the company's setup and structure into Fatty Tang, who had great business talent.

Only by sending him to Xishan to take charge could Zhao Hao feel a little relieved.

It’s not that Fatty Sun is unreliable, but he is in charge of both acquisitions and accounts by himself, which is like forcing people to embezzle at gunpoint.

With Fatty Tang in charge of the accounts, things will be much better in the future.

Only when Tang Youde built the company's structure and established a dedicated financial department, and then organized a board of directors and a board of supervisors to form institutional supervision, did Zhao Hao dare to completely let go.

However, it seems that Mr. Zhao has never taken care of it...

~~

After giving the two instructions, Zhao Hao said to the fat black man sitting beside him:

"Recruit me as many people as possible. I want to take advantage of the off-season to rebuild the Jingxi Mountain Road!"

"Ah? Sir, are you really going to do this?!" Before Guo Da could say anything, Sun Dawu jumped up excitedly.

"Then the last problem restricting the development of Xishan Coal Industry has been solved!"

The mountains in the west of Beijing are collectively called the Western Mountains. Black gold is hidden in the mountains. Groups of camels and horses pulling coal and transporting goods travel back and forth on the mountain roads and stone paths day after day and year after year. Over time, a road network covering the Mentougou mountain area was formed, collectively known as the Western Beijing Mountain Road.

Except for the main roads used to transport soldiers and food, most of the other mountain roads were built by coal mine owners of all generations, and they have a history of at least several dozen or even hundreds of years. How can they withstand the excessive trampling every day? They have long been dilapidated and bumpy, and horse-drawn carriages cannot pass through, so they can only be transported by camels...

This severely limited the amount of coal shipped out of Xishan. However, the coal bosses had limited financial resources and could only make minor repairs at best. How could they have the courage to completely rebuild the mountain roads that were dozens or hundreds of miles long?

"But sir, how much will this cost?" Guo Da couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his scalp.

"Otherwise, why would we issue stocks?" Zhao Hao looked around and said proudly, "We just need to use money to build a road!"
