Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Chapter 65



Bumping all the way to Xiangcheng, Wang Xiujin felt that the whole person was not well. This journey reminded him of the feeling when his family came back from the capital. Looking in the direction of the capital, he was very entangled with the capital. An indescribable emotion, Wang Xiujin has ideals, but he doesn't have the strong idea of ​​buying the old house back.

"What is uncle looking at?" Wang Juye, who got off the carriage a step earlier, turned his head and asked without seeing uncle move up.

"I was wondering if my elder brother would go to Beijing to take the exam." Wang Xiujin regained his composure and walked towards the grocery store.

Wang Juye looked at the direction and direction Wang Xiujin was looking at just now, and scratched his head. The elder uncle is going to Beijing for the exam, why is the younger uncle looking south?The puzzled Wang Juye felt strange, but he didn't ask.If he really spoke out, I don't know how Wang Xiujin, who didn't distinguish between the north and the south, would react.

After entering the shop, Wang Xiujin saw the shopkeeper, asked where his elder brother lived, and repeatedly said that he would invite the shopkeeper to have a meal to thank the shopkeeper for taking care of his elder brother.The shopkeeper was amused by Wang Xiujin's serious look like a young adult, "My little friend came to Xiangcheng, and I will be the elder brother to welcome the younger brother. How can I let the little friend treat the guest, otherwise the little friend will invite the elder brother tomorrow, and Bing will invite the elder brother today." .”

Wang Xiujin didn't object, and followed the shopkeeper to a nearby restaurant to eat something casually.The shopkeeper wanted to order a few more dishes, but was stopped by Wang Xiujin. The three of them ordered as much as they could eat, and they must not order more. After the end of the world, Wang Xiujin hated wasting food very much. When he was young in the palace, he had no choice. Now He is in charge of the family, so naturally he can't let wasteful things happen again.

The shopkeeper doesn't know as much about Wang Xiujin as Wu does. He only knows that Wang Xiujin's father is a former prime minister. He opened a grain shop in Wu County and produced some crab rice. As for more, he didn't tell him more. Ask, as for the letters between shopkeeper Wu and his boss, he has never read them, but only knows something from the letters that shopkeeper Wu sent him.The shopkeeper had a good impression of Wang Xiujin, he was not like those prodigals who only knew about prodigals, ordered a table for every meal, but didn't eat much, and wasted more than just money.

Because there were two children on the table, the shopkeeper didn't order any wine, so the shopkeeper had a very comfortable meal with a pure meal.After saying goodbye at the entrance of the restaurant and setting a time for dinner tomorrow, Wang Xiujin boarded the carriage and went to find where his eldest brother lived.

The place the shopkeeper arranged for Wang Xiubai was very easy to find. It was a quiet house amidst the noise. There was an old servant in the house who was arranged by the shopkeeper to heat hot water for Wang Xiubai.Wang Xiubo heard the old servant said that a person who claimed to be his younger brother came from outside, immediately went in and out of the house, and went straight to the gate. He was shocked when he saw the gorgeous carriage outside, and he was relieved when he saw his younger brother beside the carriage. Due to etiquette, Wang Xiubai stopped a few steps in front of his younger brother, looking at his younger brother who seemed to be taller, Wang Xiubai's longing continued to flow. "Brother is coming out, have the arrangements been made at home?" Although he was asking, Wang Xiubai came only knowing that the younger brother must have made arrangements.

Wang Xiujin nodded, and asked the accompanying servants to drive the carriage into the yard, and then led Wang Juye to follow the elder brother into the house, "A few days ago, I invited a housekeeper and a few servants. This time, Just send one over to be a servant for my elder brother." Wang Xiujin pointed to the man who was sitting on the horse, "He is clever and can read some words."

Wang Xiubo looked at his servant, then at his younger brother, and sighed in his heart, if he had the ability in the future, he would not be able to bear the pain of his younger brother today.

Wang Juye looked at the yard curiously, then took his and his uncle's packages out of the car.After setting up the horse, the servant immediately went to tidy up the house for the two young masters to stay at night.Wang Xiujin followed his eldest brother into the room dedicated to his studies, asked a few casual questions, and heard that he would take the exam the day after tomorrow, Wang Juye patted his forehead, how could he forget the day of the exam.Originally thinking of returning to Wu County the day after tomorrow, Wang Xiujin decided to wait until his eldest brother finished the exam before going back.As for the release of the list, let the eldest brother wait here!By the way, you can make some friends.

On the second day after arriving in Xiangcheng, Wang Xiujin went to see the shopkeeper of the grocery store according to the appointment. It was originally scheduled yesterday that the eldest brother would come with him today, but because tomorrow is the day of the exam, he asked the eldest brother to eat at home, so as not to cause diarrhea if he did not eat cleanly outside Case.The shopkeeper understood the reason why Wang Xiubai missed the appointment, and gave him a good pen.Wang Xiujin thanked him on behalf of his elder brother, and the two had a polite meal. Wang Xiujin decided to give brother Zhao a special dry food. They said it was special dry food, but it was actually biscuits.

After the restaurant was separated from the shopkeeper, Wang Xiujin took Wang Juye and his servants to the place where Guan Ya worked. He wanted to find a good shop here, so naturally he couldn't go from shop to shop and ask, "Is your shop cashed?" If you dare to ask A person is either a fool, or a person who is superior in every way and has a strong background.The former was blasted out if it was light, but if it was serious, he would be beaten.As for the latter, the opponent either bowed his head and delivered the store, or he was not afraid of power. As for the end, it was really hard to say.

There are many officials in Xiangcheng, but not all of them are good. At least among the six officials Wang Xiujin met, three of them like to exaggerate and take kickbacks on both sides. Wang Xiujin does not consider these three people, even if it is said that The three of them are very famous in Xiangcheng.After choosing one of the other three, Wang Xiujin walked over and explained what he wanted to do with the shop.

Guan Ya carefully analyzed to Wang Xiujin a well-known bustling street in Xiangcheng with shops on both sides, and told how many grain shops there were in that street, and by the way, who owned the grain shops and their temperament. Fan, give advice on where to shop the most appropriate.

Wang Xiujin listened very carefully. A big city is different from a small city. Without a background, it is impossible to take root as soon as you enter the city's market.The shop can be bought first, and then rented out. It is also possible to move to Xiangcheng after his family's crab field rice is opened in the market throughout Xiangcheng.

Guan Ya took Wang Xiujin around for a few laps, and the prices of the two shops that Wang Xiujin wanted were quite high. Seeing Wang Xiujin's pensive expression, Guan Ya didn't urge him, and he didn't say which one could make a fortune every day. kind of hyperbole.Wang Xiujin counted the money in his hand, he didn't bring much money for this trip, it's not difficult to buy one shop, but it's not enough to buy two shops.Wang Xiujin narrowed his eyes, and then smiled again, "If I buy both places, I wonder if I can lower the price. I didn't bring enough taels for this trip, so please give me some, and I will make up for it from my friends. "

Buying both places, Wang Xiujin didn't intend to use both for himself, one was naturally for the opening of a grain store in the future, and the other Wang Xiujin planned to write the name of his eldest sister as a dowry in the future.

"Young master, these two shops are good places. The price I gave is already the lowest, and I can't let it go." Guan Ya has seen too many bargains, and he really didn't have a high asking price, and the price has reached the lowest price. In the end, if he bargained again, he would persuade the other party to only buy one place.

Wang Xiujin didn't open his mouth to bargain again, but thought about whether he could borrow money from the shopkeeper of the grocery store if he asked for it.In Xiangcheng, there was only one place he could borrow money from. Wang Xiujin regretted not bringing some banknotes with him when he went out.Let Guan Ya leave the two shops to him, and he will come back as soon as he goes.Wang Juye was sent home when Wang Xiujin was in charge of the shop, and helped Wang Xiujin watch his uncle study. Wang Juye only knew that his uncle was going to buy a shop, but he didn't know that his uncle was in debt when he came home at night.

The shopkeeper of the grocery store listened to Wang Xiujin borrowing money, and agreed without thinking too much. If Wang Xiujin hadn't insisted on making a written receipt, the shopkeeper didn't even intend to ask for the IOU.After buying two shops, Wang Xiujin was in a very good mood.

On the third day in Xiangcheng, Wang Xiujin sent his elder brother into the examination room. Seeing the invigilator's swift movements, Wang Xiubai still secretly stuffed some money there. I can see the sun every day, and the meals in the next few days are more than others.

For three consecutive days, this time when Wang Xiubai came out, it was not as scary as last time, the house was facing the sun, although it was a bit cooler at night, but it was at least exposed to the sun during the day, and the food was more than in Wu County. People are full.After Wang Xiujin picked up his elder brother, he stayed for an extra day before rushing back to his home in Wu County.After resting for a day, he went into the city in an ox cart to deliver the money owed to shopkeeper Wu to the shopkeeper of the grocery store in Xiangcheng.

I bought some things in the city, and by coincidence, I ran into the man who bought the car last time. The man still looked like a monkey with a sharp mouth, but there was a string of red deficits marked on the top of his head, owed XX taels.When the man saw Wang Xiujin, his eyes flashed. He didn't know whether the kid was the owner of the grain store, or whether he was a rich owner, or he wouldn't have said anything to buy a car, saying that he would buy a car instead of the owner. Everyone shares their worries, no matter how grand the owner is, he will not let a child decide to buy a car. He really treats him as a fool, and I still don't understand this.Thinking that the child has money, the man started to grab the money.

The man used to be considered a rich family, but since he became obsessed with gambling, he sold all the good land and property in the family, even his wife and children, but the old mother was not sold by him, not because he didn't want to sell, but because the old mother was sold by him The eldest brother's family picked him up, but he had no chance to succeed.The man's elder brother's family was so annoyed by him, every time he asked for a loan, he was so angry that the elder brother started beating people, and then he simply moved away, so that the younger brother could not find anyone.The reason why he was so angry was that after the man was beaten, he begged for money to buy medicine for his injuries. At first, the elder brother felt guilty when he saw that his younger brother was beaten too hard, so he gave some money. Gamble again with money.

Without the eldest brother, the family can ask for money, so the man will cheat and cheat and do everything, and he will gamble when he earns some money. Now when he sees a rich child walking in the market alone, he immediately has evil thoughts.
