Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant
Chapter 62
Waking up early in the morning, Wang Xiujin plans to go to the city. He is going to Xiangcheng tomorrow. Although he has nothing to worry about the shopkeeper, he will go to the shop in the city to explain a few words. He will stop by the grocery store and ask shopkeeper Wu to write a post. things in the house.Putting it on the seniors, I went to find someone I had never met to handle the matter. If there is an intermediary who knows me, I also need to ask the intermediary to make a phone call first. It would be better if the intermediary can go together.In ancient times, Wang Xiujin didn't know much about it, so in order not to make the other party unhappy, he should ask shopkeeper Wu about it.
Sitting in the ox cart, Wang Xiujin was considering whether to buy a horse cart. If it was just to go back and forth between the shop and home, the ox cart would be fine, but if it was going far away, the ox cart would not be as fast as the horse cart. After thinking about the money in his hand, he planned to go to the city. First, I went to the place where the livestock were sold, and I had to equip the horse with a good carriage. When thinking of the carriage, Wang Xiujin thought of the one that his father gave away generously when he just returned to the village. Being the master, don't easily grant money or property to others, otherwise no matter how much money he can make, he might not be able to keep up with his father's failure.
When it comes to horse selection, Wang Xiujin is not an expert, and he doesn't dare to show his eyes. He doesn't know how to treat a sick horse as a good one.After turning around, he spotted two horses.Wang Xiujin hurried back to the shop and asked the shopkeeper Yu for his opinion, to see if anyone he knew would look at him.
Wang Xiujin asked the right person. Shopkeeper Yu really knew someone who could look after livestock. After hearing this, Wang Xiujin immediately asked shopkeeper Yu to help him pick up two horses. He didn’t ask for a lot of money, just that it would be okay. .Shopkeeper Yu was overjoyed, "Boss, even if you want to buy expensive horses in Wu County, you can't buy them!"
Thinking about it, there are many big families in Wu County, and it looks quite prosperous, but it is not a big city after all. Thinking about it this way, it strengthened Wang Xiujin's idea of opening a shop in a big city.Shopkeeper Yu came back shortly after he left, with an honest-looking man behind him. Wang Xiujin sized him up, saying he was looking at him, but he was actually looking at the label on the man's head, and then nodded. Consistent, is a real person.
After entering the door, shopkeeper Yu said that this person was his friend, and it happened that his friend helped someone find horses, and after listening to his request, he ordered two horses along the way. "Would my boss want to go and have a look? What's your intention?"
Wang Xiujin really doesn't know how to look at horses. To him, horses all look the same except for their different colors.However, he followed out and saw two horses led by someone outside the shop, which looked good.So he asked shopkeeper Yu to give his friend the hard work fee, but the man didn't want to take it, he just dropped by, and didn't bother, how could he collect the money.But Wang Xiujin insisted on giving the money, and it happened that shopkeeper Wu came out. Wang Xiujin didn't talk to the man, so he hurried to find shopkeeper Wu.
The man looked at his old friend, "What should I do?"
"The boss gives it to you, so you take it." Knowing the family background of his friend, shopkeeper Yu thought that the boss was a good person, and if it was someone else, he might be greedy for such a cheap price.
The man cheerfully accepted the money, and repeatedly asked his old friends to help thank their owner before turning around and leaving the grain shop.
In the grocery store, Wang Xiujin explained the reason why he was looking for Shopkeeper Wu. Shopkeeper Wu stared at Wang Xiujin for a while, and then laughed loudly, "You are a child who thinks too much all day long. If you need any posts, go directly to That's it."
Wang Xiujin was quite puzzled, why did he think too much, didn't the ancients pay attention to etiquette?He should pay attention to the fact that these are superfluous?
"At such a young age, I always thought about what was there and what was not. The shop you went to was not the shopkeeper's home, so there was no need to be so careful." Although the shopkeeper Wu smiled on the face, he felt a little sad for Wang Xiujin in his heart. At an age that people think of, but so mature, he is careful in everything.
"So, I'm relieved." Although he was still worried, Wang Xiujin could only nod under the shopkeeper's reassurance.
After getting out of the grocery store, I went to the carpenter's shop again. It was a coincidence that I wanted to order a set of cars. There was a ready-made set in the shop. The person who ordered the car only paid a deposit. The shop owner refunded the money, and worried the owner of the shop. He built the car with good wood, and it took a full month. I regret why I didn't go to the Yamen to make a written statement, and I can avoid some losses today.
When Wang Xiujin saw the car, he thought it was pretty good. After asking the price, he thought it was expensive. The person who was clamoring for a refund immediately started selling it to Wang Xiujin, saying how good the car was and how expensive the material was. Wang Xiujin looked at him , spit out a faint sentence, "Since it's so good, why do you want to quit?"
The other party was immediately choked up and flicked his sleeves, "Go, go, kid, don't mess around here."
"When you persuaded me to buy it, why didn't you say that I was a child?" Wang Xiujin muttered in a low voice. He really wanted to buy it, but he really felt that the price of the car was too expensive. It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, but that it was unnecessary. waste.
"Little brother, if you are traveling far away, this car is really comfortable. If you are using it nearby, you only need to order a simpler one." The owner of the shop is a sincere person. "Besides, this car is really not expensive. I'm just earning some manual money while recovering the capital."
Wang Xiujin thought about where he was going, and also thought that if his elder brother was lucky enough to pass this time, he would have to go to Beijing to take the exam, which would be a long journey. "Give some more, and I'll make an order."
"I said child, do you have money?" The person who was choked by the child felt ashamed, and when he heard Wang Xiujin's words, he immediately turned around and looked over, "Are you worthy of being the master?"
"You don't want this car. Whether you want it or not is a matter between me and the shopkeeper. Whether I can make the decision, what does it matter to you?" After Wang Xiujin finished speaking, he ignored the man and just looked at the shopkeeper. After thinking about it, I gave in a few taels.Wang Xiujin nodded in response, "I will go to the yamen with you to make a contract, and then you can take the contract and go to the Wang Family Grain Shop to get the money."
"Are you the owner of the Wang's Grain Shop?" No one in Wuxian County knew that the owner of the Wang's Grain Shop was a child. Now the other party asked him to go to the grain shop to withdraw money, and the shopkeeper immediately guessed the identity of the other party.
"I'm just running errands. It's not my employer. I asked the shopkeeper to send the car to the grain store." Wang Xiujin cupped his hands, and the man who was jumping to return the car just now quit immediately. is his.Wang Xiujin just looked at the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper looked at the man, feeling anxious, someone finally bought a car, if he really let him go like this, and the man said no, the car would be thrown into his hands.
"My child, this car is mine. After I pay the money, I will resell it to you. But the price just now is not acceptable, and I have to add some more."
Heh, to catch love is to take him for granted!Wang Xiujin turned around and left without even paying attention. He was going to go to the cloth shop to pull some rough cloth, buy some cotton, and go back to make cushions for the car.Wang Xiujin believed that the man would never pay after he left.
What Wang Xiujin thought was true, when he returned to the carpenter's shop, the man had left early. The shopkeeper became more interested this time, and went to the yamen with the other party to make a written statement, but when he came back, he was worried and hated the man for scaring him away. People who originally wanted to buy a car.Seeing that Wang Xiujin came back, the shopkeeper almost shed tears, because things made of high-quality wood are not easy for others to buy.
Wang Xiujin asked for the size of the car, and went to make a written receipt with the shopkeeper, and he paid for it at that time, but he didn't ask the other party to send the car to the grain shop, but said that someone would move the horse to the grain store tomorrow to hang the car.The shopkeeper was happy because he had sold the car, and Wang Xiujin immediately responded to the request, and he also took the initiative to say that he would never spread it to the outside world.
After wandering around the city for a day, it was already afternoon when Wang Xiujin returned to the village. Many people were outside basking in the sun and chatting about their household chores. When someone saw Wang Xiujin, he asked why he didn't bring Wang Juye with him.Wang Xiujin didn't know what these people were planning, "I don't have anything to do here, so I let the Juye family go." If the speaker really didn't mean it, he listened with intentions, and when he heard Wang Xiujin's words, he decided that Wang Xiujin didn't want Wang Juye to follow.
The village chief naturally heard some of the gossip in the village, and hurriedly asked how his great-grandson came back. Wang Juye looked confused, "My uncle asked me to go home and rest for a few days. He said he was going to Xiangcheng. If I don't want to follow Go, rest at home, and look for him after he comes back."
"You idiot, why didn't you follow!" The village chief was furious, "Where did Tian Ding go in the past, even if he didn't take you with him, he didn't say that he wouldn't let him stay in their house. You, you, you, you really pissed me off It's gone." The village chief thought that Wang Xiujin was dissatisfied with him because of his third son's family affairs, so he wanted to send Juye back.The village chief knew how many people in the village were staring at the work of raising a family, and now hearing that his great-grandson was not up to date, the fire in his heart was burning up.
"I, I miss my mother." Wronged, Wang Juye whispered.
"You..." The village chief pointed at his great-grandson, not knowing what to say, "In the evening, you pack up and go to your uncle's place, and follow you to Xiangcheng in the evening. After returning from Xiangcheng, it's not too late to come back to see your parents." .”
Wang Juye had never seen his great-grandfather so angry, he nodded aggrievedly, tears were about to fall.When the village chief saw his great-grandson like this, he felt a little uncomfortable, and he hated the family of the third child who caused trouble.Looking at Wang Juye's parents, they felt sorry for their son and were reluctant to bear the child, but they did not dare to disobey the elder's wishes, so they could only silently take care of their son. After the elder left, they coaxed and persuaded their son He said, "Tell me, why is grandfather doing this? Our son is now acting like a servant." Wang Juye's mother felt sorry for her son, and felt a little unhappy about his grandfather's behavior.
"Grandfather can do whatever he asks, and he can still harm our son." Being a father is not happy, but he can't say more.
Sitting in the ox cart, Wang Xiujin was considering whether to buy a horse cart. If it was just to go back and forth between the shop and home, the ox cart would be fine, but if it was going far away, the ox cart would not be as fast as the horse cart.
