Yang Che said: "This first male is the Gongmen.

The eldest brother has already made an agreement with everyone in this department. If you go, you will be directly arranged to be a writer, and you will also be an official after all.

With such a background, it will be more dignified to talk about it, and it will be easier for the elder brother to help you arrange marriage. "

Yang Yuan frowned slightly after hearing this.

If he could go to the "Xianggong Office" to be a clerk before he even thought about starting his own business, he would be considered a grassroots civil servant in the Song Dynasty, which would be pretty good, so he might not stop going.

You know, although the Xianggong Office was only the lowest-level bureaucratic organization in the urban institutions of the Song Dynasty, it sounded like a government office as big as sesame seeds and mung beans.

But under the capital, there are also officials such as Jiezi, Zuoyou, Xingguan, Xiangdian, Shushou, etc., and there is also a patrol shop under the Xiangong office, which is equivalent to the police station in the future market.

In this comparison, Xianggongsuo is already a good place to go.

Especially if you can be an official in Xiangong right after you join the job, it is indeed a decent job.

However, now Yang Yuan has decided to start his own business. Starting a business is risky, but once successful, the rewards will be great.

As for becoming an official, the upper limit is too low. Although starting your own business is risky, the possibilities are endless.

However, this was just what Yang Yuan was thinking.

He knew very well that if he told his elder brother that he planned to start a business, he would definitely not agree with his stubborn and rigid character.

Yang Yuan thought about it and asked, "What is the other business?"

Yang Che said: "'The other is work.

In Lin'an, we have an embroidery shop called "Moshanghua". It was an imperial merchant who contributed embroidery products to the palace. It was the leading embroidery shop in Hangzhou in Lin'an Prefecture.

The wages they pay there are always very high. Moreover, if you can learn the art of embroidery, you will not only have enough food for the rest of your life, but you can also pass it on to future generations. "

embroidery? Going to learn embroidery?

It was very popular for teenagers in the Song Dynasty to wear hairpins on their hair. Yang Yuan has never been able to adapt to this fashionable custom. Should he learn embroidery?

Yang Yuan imagined that she had a flower on her hair, a thin layer of makeup on her face, and an embroidery needle in her hand, sitting gently by the window.

A gust of wind picked up his long hair, and the falling flowers fell on his shoulders. The way he threaded the needle and thread gently made everyone shiver!

Seeing the resistant look on his face, Yang Che said earnestly: "Second brother, as a human being, you can't be low-handed and high-minded.

Do you think you can enter the embroidery workshop casually? Not to mention Mo Shanghua, an imperial businessman.

It's just that the young lady of the shopkeeper's family of "Moshanghua" often goes to the palace to deliver brocades. I have met her several times and asked her to make arrangements for you, so the shopkeeper agreed. "

In fact, the income of being an embroiderer is very high. However, Yang Yuan always felt that a grown man holding an embroidery needle to embroider was too rosy.

Yang Yuan's arms were already swollen, and he said with a grimace: "Brother, what kind of flood and fire are there in the office? Reviewing and copying letters, looking at the boundaries, collecting money from Futian Courtyard, paying money to the poor, mediating disputes, arresting criminals, everything under your control The matter is too complicated.”

Yang Che smiled and said: "You kid, you know nothing. Most of the things in the office are related to people's livelihood, so there is money and money."

Yang Che's intention was not to let him be greedy, but mainly because the Song Dynasty did indeed do quite well in terms of people's livelihood and welfare.

For various disasters such as floods and fires, you can apply to the government for treatment or tax exemption.

However, it is impossible for you to report how much disaster you have suffered. In this case, you need to send someone from the Xianggong Office to survey the severity of your disaster, determine how much relief you need, and then copy and report it.

As for managing the public welfare nursing homes and orphanages within their jurisdiction, they are naturally responsible for distributing poverty relief and so on.

And after doing these things, even if you are not greedy at all, you can still receive a lot of errand fees as a thank you gift, which is indeed very profitable.

Yang Yuan shook his head and said, "Brother, I don't like doing these things."

Yang Che said: "Then go and learn embroidery."

Hangzhou embroidery masters have always been men, because Hangzhou embroidery is mainly used by the royal family or the families of dignitaries, so the embroidery style is required to be soft but strong, elegant and graceful.

In this regard, it was obviously easier for men to perform, and gradually it developed into recruiting only male workers.

If not, Yang Yuan really wouldn't have this chance.

Yang Yuan said: "Brother, I am a grown man, holding an embroidery needle, no wonder I am so excited when I think about it."

Yang Che became unhappy and said with a straight face: "Being an official is a decent job. Being an embroiderer earns a lot of money, and each has its own benefits.

You can't do this, and you don't want to do that, so what do you want? Just continue to be an idle guy?

You still have to be down-to-earth in life. I am the eldest brother and I make the decision. You must choose one of these two places to go! "

Yang Che is the standard Chinese father.

The characteristic of Chinese fathers is that they are not good at communicating with their children and pay attention to the dignity of a father.

He can save money on food and clothing, work hard to provide for you, and assume all the responsibilities and obligations that should be borne by you.

And he will feel that this is what he should take for granted.

But correspondingly, he also likes to make the decision for you and use what he thinks is good to veto your own choices.

Yang Yuan has decided to start his own business, and he has done "market research" seriously.

Lin'an in the Song Dynasty is highly similar to his original era.

All industries are developed, including renting donkeys and ordering takeaways. Entertainment stars are everywhere. The market for crisis public relations is actually quite large.

It's just that people in this era don't have this professional concept. Of course they will find ways to solve a crisis.

But most of them try their best on their own, or ask relatives and friends, but in the end they don't have professional ideas and methods to solve this kind of problem.

Therefore, as long as he can successfully handle one or two such crises, he can quickly occupy this market, and he is the only one with no semicolon. How about making a lot of money?

What's more, now that Wu Gu discusses Yingge as an opportunity, it is an excellent opportunity.

However, Lu Xi cannot understand the concept of "public relations", and he can even coax and deceive.

There is no way he can fool Big Brother here, and Big Brother won't listen.

Once he says it out, I'm afraid his eldest brother will keep a close eye on him and will not allow him to go astray.

Thinking of this, I can only hide it from him for now.

If I say that I have to go to Xiangong Office as an errand, Xiangong Office has to order mao every day, and new recruits need a guarantor. This guarantor must be my eldest brother. If he comes with me, how can I get out?

Then you can only learn to embroider!

Thinking of this, Yang Yuan pretended to be helpless and sighed: "Then I will learn embroidery. After all, it is a skill that can be passed down to the family."

Yang Che relaxed his brows and said with a smile: "That's right. Then I'll take a leave tomorrow and take you to 'Moshang Flower'."

Yang Yuan hurriedly said: "Brother, I am not a child of several years old. I still ask you to accompany me when you have already agreed. Isn't this a joke?

You're busy with official duties, so don't accompany me. I'll go there by myself. "

Yang Che smiled and said: "You also know that you are not a child anymore? Then tell me to worry less about it from now on.

Okay, then you can go to work by yourself, I won’t accompany you tomorrow. "

Yang Che picked up the tea, thought about it and still felt uneasy, and then asked: "When you go to meet others, you must be sweeter and more diligent in your work. Whether you are dealing with the embroidery master or other apprentices, you must know the etiquette..."

Yang Yuan said: "Brother, please stop chanting the curse. When it comes to dealing with people, I am better than you."

Yang Che glared and said: "See what you can do, hold the gun steady!"

Seeing Yang Yuan gritting his teeth and holding the big gun steady, Yang Che felt greatly relieved.

The second brother finally has a serious business, so that he can consider his life-long affairs.

The two brothers can't both be bachelors. The second brother has been living in the north for many years and has suffered a lot. As the elder brother, I have to deal with him first.

I started saving money after I found my second brother. Over the past year, I have saved eighty or ninety dollars.

If you want to marry your second brother, the betrothal gift will be at least fifty guan, and the wedding will cost almost 50 guan...

Yang Che couldn't help but frown again, he was still a little short of money.

In fact, when he works in the Imperial City Division, his salary is quite high.

It's just that he used to be alone, and he worked the most dangerous job, with no future, so he didn't want to save money.

After finding his brother a year ago, he started to live frugally. He was only a year old, how much could he save?

Forget it, if you want to tell your second brother about the girl he likes, the wedding should be a bit grand and not too stingy.

If it doesn’t work out, I will ask my colleagues to borrow some more money when the time comes.

Anyway, when the second brother becomes a teacher and can make money, the hard days of our Yang family will be over.

Thinking of this, Yang Che felt comfortable again, grabbed the teapot, and took a nice sip.
