Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant
Chapter 45
In the main hall of the yamen, Wang Dongjia and his brother-in-law knelt on both sides. In comparison, the brother-in-law looked a little embarrassed.Wang Xiujin and shopkeeper Wu were crowded among the literati, the short Wang Xiujin couldn't see anything even if he stood on tiptoe.While Wang Xiujin kept thinking about the beauty of the trial, he tiptoed to look in from time to time, and then he didn't forget to convince himself to see if the ancients tried the same thing as watching TV in his previous life.
It was not the first time for Wang Xiujin to come to the yamen, but it was the first time to see the county magistrate hearing a case. Then he looked at the kneeling man, with "evil" and "stealing" clearly marked on his head, followed by a row of crimes listed.Wang Xiujin rubbed his chin. He has the ability to "know people with discerning eyes". Isn't it a waste of time to go into business?Why don't you also take a test for fame?Thinking of "Zhi, Hu, Zhe, Ye", I shrink back again, let's forget it!If you have time to endorse, you might as well think about how to make more money.
As soon as he raised his eyes, Wang Xiujin saw the figure of his eldest brother, and hurriedly squeezed forward. He was a little surprised that his eldest brother came to watch the county magistrate's trial, but it made sense after thinking about it.The eldest brother obtained his honor in order to be an official, and the academy is close to the county government, so he would naturally come over to have a look if he had a trial to do.There are quite a few scholars in front of them, and what they want is that if there is a high school day, they will have the opportunity to sit firmly in the classroom.Wang Xiujin squeezed to the elder brother's side and tugged on the elder brother's sleeve.Seeing that it was his younger brother, Wang Xiubo embraced him and told him not to speak.
Wang Xiujin could only swallow what he was going to say, not to mention that the eldest brother was standing in a really good place, as long as he didn't close his eyes, he could enjoy the panoramic view of the main hall of the yamen.The county magistrate was dressed in an official uniform, sitting firmly in the hall, holding a gavel in one hand, supporting the case with the other, with an upright expression on his face. If it wasn't for the ink money stamped on his head, and a few other things he did, he might be caught by the momentum in front of him. bluff.The county magistrate of Wu County cannot be judged by good or bad. Is greedy ink a bad person?But the county magistrate built a righteous hall with people who were greedy for ink, and there were no beggars in the county to benefit from the righteous hall.It is said that he is kind, and he is also a small expert in making money. The little county magistrate embezzled more than [-] taels of silver, which shows his ability.
When the gavel knocked, there was an instant silence.
The outcome of the case was as expected. Not only was the brother-in-law beaten, but he also had to return the deed and the bank notes, and he was even distributed to the most miserable places.After Wang Dong's family took back what belonged to them, they felt a lot more relaxed, and now they are asking for much more than expected.Wang Dong's family was not in a hurry to go home, they went to exchange the banknotes first, part of the debt was repaid, and part was sent to the county magistrate.
When Wang Xiujin's grain store was in distress, he negotiated with several other counties for supply, and now the number of customers coming to the store is much higher than before.And before I heard from shopkeeper Wu that Wang Dong's family didn't plan to continue the business, Wang Xiujin also intentionally contacted several suppliers in the county.The so-called supply is actually some people who go to the countryside to collect grain. The price they collect will not be too high, so that the villagers will not go to the grain store and sell it to the grain shop. They will not make much money. It is very loyal to put Wang Dong's family in debt under pressure.
After Wang Xiujin contacted them, they didn't respond immediately, they only said that if Wudong's family really didn't want to do it any more, they would give him a confession.Wang Xiujin didn't force it, and all of them had negative numbers on their heads, which shows that the pressure was very high during this period.Wang Xiujin couldn't comment on whether their actions were correct. If it was him, he might not be able to do what they did.
After Wang Dong's family got the money, they didn't give up their previous ideas. He still didn't plan to open a shop again, and planned to take his wife to other places to make other plans.After dealing with the debts, Mr. Wang's family began to sell houses and shops.
Wang Xiujin, who has no plans to buy another shop at the moment, didn't think too much when he heard shopkeeper Wu mentioning Dong Wang's shop.But he didn't want to be stopped by Wang Dong's family when he was going out of the city to go home.
The two sat in the tea stand by the roadside, Wang Xiujin wondered why Boss Wang wanted to sell the shop to him.In his opinion, he is not familiar with Wang Dong’s family, and Wang Dong’s family can entrust the dental firm with the house and shop, and the dental firm will help sell it, and it will be sold within a few days, although it will cost the dental firm some hard work. But also peace of mind.
"I'm a rough person, and I didn't read much when I was a child. I can live today, and I don't want to talk about the hard work. Now I have three bedrooms and four shops. I plan to keep only one room and one shop, and sell the rest. .”
Wang Xiujin nodded lightly. He probably reserved a room and a bunk so that he would not be able to hang out outside in the future, and he would have a place to live in when he returned to Wu County.It's like, after my father came to Beijing, he still kept his ancestral property.
"It's not hard to sell two houses and three shops in a dental store, but you will also meet some people who want to take advantage of the fire. Don't look at Wu County, but it is also a hidden dragon and crouching tiger." After Wang Dongjia finished speaking, he looked up at Wang Xiujin, as if Said he was one of them. "If there is someone who doesn't want to follow the wise path, and let him know that he wants to buy my shop, with my current state, I can only let the other party take advantage of it, let alone earn money, I'm afraid it may still be in my hands .”
At this point, if Wang Xiujin doesn't understand what Wang Dong's family means, he will be a fool. "Let me go back and think about it." Wang Dong's family excitedly stood up and saluted Wang Xiujin, who stood up and dodged, "Let me tell you first, I don't necessarily know how to buy it, I just think about it."
In fact, Dong Wang's family thinks too much, because of his family's troubles, and wearing a green hat, it has become the talk of the townspeople. There are so few people who think carefully, they have been knocked out long ago, and they don't know For what purpose did you help out, maybe you are both men, so you can't bear it?
Along the way, Wang Xiujin kept thinking about whether to buy it. He was rich, but he didn't want to do it too blatantly.There are pros and cons to buying a shop, but he hasn't seen that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and they are big enough for him to risk buying a shop.
Back home, when Wang Xiujin talked with his mother about the shop, Mrs. Wang gave her son some advice. If he had spare money, he could buy a shop, but only one shop. Don't buy more.In this way, people will not be offended, and they can also hand over to Wang Dong's family.If Mr. Wang's family said more, they could just say that they have no money.Mrs. Wang didn't know how much money the youngest son had in her hands, but in her opinion, there might be too much. Even if most of the grain produced by his family was brought into the capital, it still couldn't be sold for much.As for most crabs, it sounds like a lot of money to buy, but the food and clothing expenses of a large family, plus the expenses of the shop, etc., which one is not money, and the eldest son's four treasures of the study do not need money. If you can buy a shop again, Renting it out can also make up for some household expenses.
After Wang Xiujin thought about it, he also thought that he could set up another shop, but Wang Xiujin planned to put the name of the shop under the elder sister's name. He didn't know what they would do in the future, maybe they would develop very well and become a well-known grain merchant. , Maybe it will be a complete failure. If it succeeds, it will not be just a shop for the elder sister. If it fails, the elder sister will also have a guarantee after going out.Wang Xiujin didn't mention this matter in front of his mother, and told his eldest sister after it was settled.
Since he wanted to buy a shop, Wang Xiujin wanted to find out where the several shops of Mr. Wang's family were. Others might not know about this, but shopkeeper Wu would definitely know.Wang Xiujin was very impressed with Shopkeeper Wu's ability to gossip, he couldn't understand why shopkeeper Wu had such a good mood.
Shopkeeper Wu saw that Wang Xiujin wanted to buy a shop, so he conducted a comprehensive analysis of the location of Wang Dong's four shops, why there were so many people here, what shops were around, who lived there, and what happened in which shop. thing……
Hearing this, Wang Xiujin felt that even if Wang Dong's shop was listed in a dental store, the wealthy households in the city might not buy it. Among the four shops, only the grain shop did not have any incidents of human life. The other three shops all had troubles. Even though the three shops are rented out, there are few buyers who are not shy, especially the ancients who are quite convinced of ghosts and gods.Wang Xiujin didn't mind buying it, but shopkeeper Wu kept shaking his head, saying that the three shops were evil. When the three shops were put down, Dong Wang's family didn't spend much. I heard that something happened before, and Dong Wang's family did not I bought it with the intention of not being cheap, but in the end, something happened, and the people who rented the three shops were barely able to maintain their business, and their business was not booming.
Wang Xiujin thought for a while, and it was better not to try to take advantage of it. As the old saying goes, if you are greedy for petty gains, you will suffer big losses.
After deciding which shop to buy, Wang Xiujin sent someone to invite Wang Dong's family. The money was either as much or as much as Wang Dong's family asked to sell. Even though he sympathized with what happened to Wang Dong's family, but from his own point of view, he wanted to get it at a relatively low price. big benefit.After some discussions, the shop was settled at a price that both parties were satisfied with.
It wasn't until the shop was settled, and Wang Xiujin took the newly released title deed, that he was relieved. Fortunately, Wang Dong's family didn't do a bundled sale.Back at the shop, when Wang Xiujin saw shopkeeper Wu, when he mentioned this matter, Wang Xiujin expressed some emotion. After hearing this, shopkeeper Wu raised his eyebrows, "Wang Dong's family really didn't say anything else? For example, let the grain shop The man is coming to work in your shop?"
"Before he mentioned this matter, the shopkeeper Yu mentioned it to me, and I asked him to choose people who are quick-witted and have no wrong thoughts." Wang Xiujin was very satisfied with the shopkeeper. The shop was organized by him in an orderly manner. Stealing rape and playing tricks, the atmosphere is very good.
"You didn't agree to accept them all, and Mr. Wang's family didn't say anything?"
"I didn't say much, my current shop is only this big, how can I need so many people, I can't afford it."
"That's true." After shopkeeper Wu finished speaking, he looked at Wang Xiujin, "When I saw you at the beginning of the year, you were still a seller who embroidered things to make money for the family, but now you have two shops." It's emotion, who would have thought that a child could do this to this extent?If it was him, he thought he couldn't do it.
"It depends on the support of shopkeeper Wu." At the beginning, he also listed shopkeeper Wu as a person who should not be friends with each other. Now the two of them sit together and drink tea from time to time, which he would never have thought of at that time.
It was not the first time for Wang Xiujin to come to the yamen, but it was the first time to see the county magistrate hearing a case. Then he looked at the kneeling man, with "evil" and "stealing" clearly marked on his head, followed by a row of crimes listed.Wang Xiujin rubbed his chin.
