Half an hour later, the prince returned to the palace, and everyone walked to the gate of the imperial city, then returned to the shop to continue eating and drinking.
Shopkeeper Xu came over and greeted Zhu Ping first. After getting up, he said to the head of the restaurant: "There were guards standing by the windows of my restaurant just now. They didn't go out until His Highness the Crown Prince left. I haven't eaten yet!"
"In Xiaqiu Village, we should buy all the shops on the west side and the west side opposite, so that when His Highness the Crown Prince comes here, he only has to guard against you and a restaurant."
The headmaster invited shopkeeper Xu to sit down. The last seat, the seat before the prince, was taken by King Qin.
Shopkeeper Xu sat halfway down and nodded to His Highness King Qin. He knew that King Qin would be bored if he didn't sit down.
The people in the kitchen brought him new tableware, and he thanked him and said, "Indeed, otherwise His Royal Highness's guards would have to guard those two positions.
As soon as people from the Prince's Palace appeared in my restaurant, I knew you were back, but I didn't dare to come out.
Those two shops are about to change hands, and the one next to them sells cloth. Isn't this because merchants are now not allowed to wear silk and satin? Look at me, I'm just dressed in silk.
It is difficult to buy or sell his house. If you want to change the place, if the things are not sold and people take them away, you can still do this business.
The shop diagonally opposite has been selling wine, tea, and salt for more than 20 years. Now his family is looking for someone to handle the paperwork for wine and tea, and the salt man wants to take over his family's share.
Taking a share is not just about salt, but also wine and tea. How can this be done? His family wants to transfer it.
Some salt merchants have warned that anyone who dares to buy salt should not sell salt in the future, otherwise they will be forced to sell illicit salt and must report it. "
Shopkeeper Xu told the village chief about the situation of the two families. Now they can buy it. He didn't mention whether it was cheap or not. Xiaqiu Village did not consider this.
"Zhu Lichang, do you sell salt in your village? Buy it and sell it to you. No, we are still a partnership. I wonder which salt merchant is so powerful?"
Zhu Xi thought it was funny, is there any salt merchant in Nanjing who is so arrogant? Where did you put the court?
My father said that the salt monopoly was to support the border, not to let you salt merchants help the old Zhu family run the world.
Li Chang: "..."
While we are eating and talking, why do we need to buy two more shops? Selling salt? Never sold, this...
"Sell and eat! Hey hey hey hey!" Zhu Wentian shouted excitedly from the side, and gave Zhu Ping a piece of meat that he had just cooked.
Zhu Chong didn't mind it either. When he drank too much, he used the same cup with Hanhan and even snatched the dried meat from Hanhan's mouth!
He picked up the meat Hanhan gave him and said, "Look, Zhu Lichang, your village guards have spoken, so make arrangements quickly."
"Your Highness, Hanhan heard about selling... Yes, arrangement." The chief agreed with a helpless look.
"Is this how far our Xiaqiu Village is against the villagers?" Zhu Fang found it interesting.
"Otherwise, how can we live a good life now? The village guard was right. He said that the house should be set on fire now. I called people out and burned it without even frowning."
The head of the village nodded vigorously, yes, this is how Xiaqiu Village treats the villagers.
"Hanhan, tell me about the house." Zhu Feng said to Hanhan.
Zhu Wentian: "..."
"Silly, there is no room to sleep on, street, huh! Humph!"
"It seems you are not stupid either!"
"You silly!"
"I'm stupid, stop staring, eat, come on, drink." Zhu Ping surrendered.
"Drink! Hey hey hey hey!" Zhu Wentian held the cup.
…
After dinner, the lights were hung up, and the manager came to Hanhan's room: "Hanhan, why do you want to sell salt?"
"I want to sell firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. It will be easier to do things in the future if I have the paperwork to sell it.
Nowadays, you still have to buy firewood. Everyone in Nanjing uses coal, the same coal we use.
Pulverized coal is not suitable for making briquettes and selling them to the public because it is easy to be poisoned by carbon. It is best to blow the pulverized coal into the furnace when making bricks and smelting. As for rice..."
Zhu Wentian explained his idea. He wanted to drive research and development through sales, and the rice noodles he bought would be shelled and ground into powder.
The technology of oil extraction can also be improved. Nowadays, wooden stakes are used to swing and beat, or the oil is crushed like a seesaw, and metal equipment can be used.
As for salt, it can be iodized and needs a lot of seaweed. It is for people with big necks in common places. No, it is for people who don't have big necks in the local area. People with big necks should not eat it.
The sauce is doenjang and pickles. This sets a standard to let others know why it takes so long and how can you eat the bad ones if the time is short.
In addition to vinegar, other things can be used to replace vinegar, and standards are also set for mature vinegar.
Finally, tea leaves cannot be grown in many places, but tea trees can be grown. At present, the Yi people have not yet planted tea leaves, including Sri Lanka, which became a major black tea planting area when it was occupied by the British.
Take the opportunity to export quickly, make more and sell more, and strictly prohibit tea seedlings and seeds from being taken out.
"I call the new store Qibiju, or it can also be called Qibiqi."
Zhu Wentian felt that Liubiju was not strong enough and did not sell tea. Why? I can’t get through the relationship! So the founder simply stopped touching tea leaves.
Just like the one diagonally opposite now, the salt dealer warned that no one else was allowed to take over, otherwise the salt seller would be dealt with.
If someone does take over, they will have no choice but to stop selling salt.
The founder of Liubiju had no way to sell tea, and people who came after him would not be able to identify tea. It is good to buy and sell by yourself, so why bother with an unfamiliar industry?
"It's done! Just say it's okay." After listening to Hanhan's introduction, the store manager thought it was no problem, it's just one store.
Zhu Fang couldn't sleep. He wanted to buy a shop and continue to do big business in partnership with Xiaqiu Village.
He is simple-minded and wants to prove himself and be praised by his father and mother, and follow his elder brother's example.
"Come here." He suddenly sat up.
As soon as the door opened, a guard came in: "Your Highness."
"Go to the government office early tomorrow morning to find someone to make arrangements for digging the copper mine, and tell them how deep it is, and you are not allowed to dig until the well is firmly dug.
Ask those two stores how much they cost. The palace will pay for it. No, the palace will take the money and give it to Xiaqiu Village. They will buy it. I will hide behind it. "
Zhu Fang gave some instructions and felt that it was almost done. He nodded and lay down to sleep again.
The guard gently closed the door and explained to the others.
There are people in charge of the King of Qin's palace, so they cannot bring them, otherwise there will be conflicts. The people in charge must safeguard the dignity of His Highness the King of Qin in all aspects.
…
At dawn, Wang Shu woke up and wanted to go out to the latrine, but Wang Laowei took him to the toilet of Yuanluo Yunzhai across the road.
The ones in the Danqing store are reserved for Xiaqiu Village and the guards. Once the building behind the library is completed, there will be many places.
"Brother, are you using paper?" Wang Shu felt a little distressed when he saw the rough-edged paper handed over by his brother.
"Don't talk too much and get out quickly." Wang Laowen urged, would you like to chat inside?
The two brothers went out to the washing place outside to wash their hands, face and teeth. They wiped them clean with the hand towels they brought and returned to the Danqing shop feeling refreshed.
At this time, there were 300 more people in the shop. The craftsmen who worked before were all in Nanjing, so they were too far away to recruit.
All of them have parents, wives and children, so they don't dare to attack His Highness King Qin.
