When Xu Qin came to Beijing, he first went to Enshe Query Field, which was already fully constructed. There is a constant flow of boats at the pier. The goods in the market were piled up like mountains, and the surrounding business travelers were indecisive.
The originally desolate surroundings had become bustling with people, and various buildings, shops, teahouses, brothels, and freight stations were all developed according to his original design.
The market is like a small town, and the surrounding areas are spread out like lotus flowers. This has become a prosperous place outside Nanjing. And the surrounding buildings are slowly rising from the ground.
In time, the prosperity here can be expected.
However, most of the surrounding land belongs to the Duke of Wei, and even the largest wharf near the water where there is a land for sale belongs to the Duke of Wei.
At that time, the land acquired by the Duke of Wei at the price of waste land was regarded as a fool by those who were not optimistic about the market. The amount of land close to the land now is more than ten times that of that time.
But just like that, the Duke of Wei had no intention of taking action.
Xu Qin and his party landed here. There are already many people waiting on the shore. All of them are shopkeepers from the Duke of Wei's mansion.
There were more than twenty people, old and young.
"I've met the young master, I've met the second young lady." More than twenty people were waiting at the roadside to salute carefully.
Xu Miaojin nodded and left as if she couldn't see him. These people are all old people from the Duke of Wei's palace, and now they are all the eldest nephews. She is a young lady who is called respectful, but her importance is actually much lower than that of Xu Qin.
Xu Qin couldn't leave, so he dismounted and was respectfully given away by these old men to a large and bright teahouse. Today the teahouse is not open to the public, only people from the Wei Guogong Palace.
These more than 20 people are all old shopkeepers, as well as newcomers. The rest of the apprentices stood. Those who were able to enter the house were the best among them, and those who were barely there were standing outside.
Xu Qin walked all the way and found that these people all lowered their heads respectfully.
"Let them all raise their heads and recognize who their master is, and let their master look at them."
Xu Qin said while standing on the steps.
An old shopkeeper nodded, then turned around and clapped his hands to everyone.
"Look up and look at our master." The old shopkeeper's voice was rich and full of majesty.
These guys who were standing neatly raised their heads and looked at Xu Qin. Although everyone was very excited, no one was talking nonsense. He closed his mouth and watched in silence. But his eyes were intense.
"Okay, very good. You must have heard that I have a bad reputation. I am not a good person, but there is one thing that I always stick to. That is to be good to my own people.
I will not treat those who stayed with me when the Xu family was in decline. Therefore, learning skills is important, but it is not as important as loyalty. Just think of these old shopkeepers.
Let me put it down here, as long as the Duke of Wei is here, I will not treat them badly. "
Xu Qin said.
"Thank you, young master." The oldest shopkeeper said excitedly, with two lines of tears flowing down the corners of his eyes.
The Duke of Wei finally had a day of pride and pride. Everything lost was gradually regained by the little prince.
Killing three thousand Japanese pirates in one battle is proof that is more effective than any words. Maybe three thousand Japanese pirates are nothing.
But the little prince has given you a seventeen-year-old, so you have a great future. All this is just the beginning. Wealth can be expected in the future.
And it will be better than the future. Now the Xu family's business tentacles have begun to extend to all parts of the country.
After closing the door, the shopkeepers settled an account with Xu Qin. From the establishment of the Enshi Qianchang, the expenditure and income of the Wei Guogong government, as well as the layout of various parts of the country.
Xu Qinqiang listened carefully for a long time and injected later business concepts in some places. These old shopkeepers never ask why.
If you don't understand, just think about it. It will take a long time for the young master's arrangement to take effect. Each one is far-sighted. They only need to summarize and learn during the implementation process.
After Xu Qin saw the businessmen at home, he walked around the Enshe Market. I looked at my property at home.
Although he didn't want to cause trouble, he was still very willing to see these old shopkeepers working for him and helping him make money.
He went home, and Lao Huang, who had gone to the Japanese country, stayed with his two sons and drank wine with the gang.
Lao Huang is completely in a state of retirement. A trip to Japan and a narrow escape from death have accumulated enough qualifications for him and also brought a way out for his son.
As long as Xu Qin is alive, these people will have a way out, and their descendants will have hope. These are the people who really hope that the Duke of Wei will be waiting for him forever.
When Xu Qin returned home, he was very angry with Xu Huizu. The old man actually took advantage of his absence to pay off all the debts he owed. All the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver he earned from the Japanese country were used by him to pay off the debts.
There were hundreds of thousands of taels of real money. Xu Qin almost rushed up and bit him. It's easy to make money during this period, but you can't squander it so much.
However, Xu Huizu is still plausible.
"It's not because of you. In the past, our family's debts were not repaid, and my old face didn't matter. It doesn't matter to you either, but it doesn't matter since you wiped out three thousand Japanese pirates. We can be bad guys, but we have to be trustworthy."
Xu Huizu said.
Xu Qin collapsed.
"I've become a bad guy, why do I care about credibility?" Xu Qin was a little confused.
"Wrong. Since ancient times, a noble family can be ruined, but it must be trustworthy, even to the enemy. This is the bottom line, otherwise no one will have a bottom line towards you."
Xu Huizu gave Xu Qin the required courses for nobles. Xu Qin found that he really didn't understand the values of the ancients.
I even don’t understand how these fat-headed nobles who have done so many bastard things still talk about benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust.
But it’s such a double standard. They believe this is the bottom line for whether a family can continue.
People can be very bad, but they must do what they say, unless they break the rules and don't want to leave the game with dignity.
Xu Qin couldn't defeat Xu Huizu, and his own father couldn't beat him. In the end, I could only mutter that I knew it.
But when I think of four to five hundred thousand taels of silver, it seems like nothing. Just being gone like that made him miserable.
Now the only one who can comfort him is the beautiful woman. With a sad face, he is ready to go back to the backyard to find the maids to comfort his injured heart.
As soon as I walked to the door of the backyard, I found Su Mingquan standing there, wearing a loose skirt, holding a round fan in his hand, looking up at the moss on the rockery, as if taking a leisurely walk.
"Don't mess with me. I just lost a lot of money and am very upset?" Xu Qin said angrily.
After saying that, he passed by in a bad mood, planning to find the maid to comfort himself.
"It's just money, I'll get it back for you." Unexpectedly, Su Mingquan said this word leisurely.
Xu Qin was pinned to the spot at once.
"Are you kidding me? Lao Huang earned more than 400,000 taels of silver after running away to the Japanese country. Didn't I look down on Mrs. Su and just give it back to me with a single word?"
Xu Qin walked to the opposite side of Su Mingquan in confusion. He knew that this woman was very smart, but he still couldn't resist such a big pie.
"It is natural to pay back debts, and there is nothing wrong with what the Duke did. But if the Young Master owes money to others, doesn't anyone owe you money?" Su Mingquan asked.
"I'm a very good person and never lend money to others." Xu Qin shook his head and said.
"Is it possible that someone kidnapped the young master's maid? Don't you want to pay for it? Although Dai Dehai ran away, his family property is still there."
Su Mingquan half covered his face with a ball fan and said with a smile. Like a little fox, still holding the pipa and half covering his face.
Xu Qin's eyes suddenly lit up, yes, when did he become so easy to talk to?
"But it's been so long, can I still give them money if I ask for it again?" Xu Qin said with some regret.
"Young Master is giving them a chance, can they just pretend to be stupid? It's time for someone to remind them."
Su Mingquan whispered.
"If Mrs. Su is willing to help, how about I give you half?" Xu Qin said excitedly. This candidate is naturally far away and right in front of us.
"What I want is not money. Don't you know my heart?" Su Mingquan's plaintive voice lingered in Xu Qin's heart.
It made him feel like he was floating from head to foot.
Such a beauty, talking like this, is simply a temptation.
"What?" Xu Qin licked his lips and said.
Su Mingquan knew what he meant, but he couldn't help but his heart was beating wildly and his teeth were itching with anger.
The fan covered her face.
"Okay..." Su Mingquan said shyly and hesitantly.
