"Okay, okay, Bao Yao is really right, you are a smart man!" Yang Tao was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "What kind of business are you doing in Quanzhou? How long does it take to make money?"
Xu Ling said: "The brocade furs from Quanzhou are transported to Lingbao Town. Although the profit is not much, if I make a few more trips and don't encounter river bandits, I can at least double it!"
Yang Tao was overjoyed: "Okay, then I'll give you thirty taels and give you a month. How much money can you make back?"
Xu Ling still had a smile on his face, but he scolded Yang Tao in his heart.
Damn it, are you asking him to go out to do business a year ago?
Xu Renren had to lower his head under the eaves, but felt a little angry in his heart. Yang Tao wanted to take advantage of him and make him work hard to make money as an errand boy, so don't blame him for biting off a piece of his flesh!
"It's hard to say. If you're lucky, you can make twice as much or twice as much. But I still have things to do at home, and it will be after the new year when I go out. Can Brother Yang be impatient?"
Yang Tao frowned, "You've built your new house, what else is going on at home?"
Xu Ling then said, "Bao Yao also knows that I used to be idle, fooling around in the town, and owed some hidden debts to gambling houses. I even sold a lot of my family's land."
"Now I am making some money from my business, but I can't do it without farmland at home. I will be ashamed of my ancestors in the future. I just want to take advantage of this free time to ask around in the countryside who wants to sell their farmland. How many acres does it cost? If it’s too much, I’ll take it if the price is right.”
Xu Ling frowned, looking very embarrassed.
Yang Tao is also a human spirit, and he understood what Xu Ling meant, and wanted to make a replacement with him. Xu Ling made money for him, he helped Xu Ling settle the bad debts of gambling houses, and then helped Xu Ling find out who had land to sell.
The two of them were very arrogant, and the Mingren did not speak secretly. Yang Tao felt a little dissatisfied in his heart and sneered: "If Brother Xu can take the position of chief bookkeeper for me, wouldn't it be easy to solve the things you mentioned? "
This is a reluctant agreement.
Xu Ling was overjoyed and quickly thanked him: "Then I'll thank Brother Yang first, and in two days I'll go out and find ways to make money for him!"
The two hit it off immediately, so Yang Tao didn't stay much and took Sun Baoyao away on a donkey.
The next day, Sun Baoyao came to Xu Ling with a jug of wine.
As soon as they met, Sun Baoyao began to apologize: "Brother Xu, look at me, I really found a troublesome job for you, and I want you to travel far away like this."
Xu Ling couldn't figure out Sun Baoyao's position, so he just smiled and said, "It's common for me to go out on business, so why is it so difficult? Brother Sun, please don't be embarrassed."
"Don't worry, my master keeps what he says, as long as you can help him get things done." Sun Baoyao approached Xu Ling and whispered in his ear: "If you don't say that you are walking sideways in a radius of ten miles, I'm afraid there will be no one." I dare to offend you, but if it weren’t for the friendship between us two brothers, I wouldn’t have done such a good deed to you.”
Xu Ling's face showed gratitude. Only half of Sun Baoyao's words were heard. Yesterday, he could tell that at first the people in the village thought that he was just a small businessman outside, who knew a little bit about how to make money. After seeing Yang Tao and the others, they always felt that Xu Ling was doing some great business outside.
Xu Ling didn't explain this misunderstanding. He was still a little fox, holding on to his tiger skin to show off his power.
But there was a little sneer in his heart. He took the risk to make money for these two people, and he had to bear the pain. Don't talk about love when talking about money.
Sun Baoyao signed a written agreement with Xu Ling and left fifty taels of silver to Xu Ling. Thirty taels of them belonged to Yang Tao, and twenty taels belonged to Sun Baoyao himself.
He was smiling playfully. Anyway, Xu Ling was making money for Yang Tao alone, but couldn't he also make some money for him?
Who doesn’t mind having too much money?
Xu Ling accepted them all.
If it were anyone else, he would be worried about this job, but he has space. For him, more money means better business.
After Sun Baoyao left, Gu Litian came to the house again and expressed concern.
"The two of them are members of the public, and they have made it clear that they want to deceive you. It's okay for you to make money, but what if you lose money?"
Gu Litian was not an outsider, and Xu Ling did not speak the same language.
He said directly: "The matter has come to this, and I have no choice at all. Guanda crushes people to death, what can I do?"
The family was worried about Xu Ling, but Xu Ling had nothing to worry about. Just as Fan Shiqing advised him in prison, the business world is difficult and dangerous. If you don't advance, you will retreat, and if you retreat, you will be worried.
Xu Ping wanted to go out with Xu Ling, "I am already thirteen years old, and I should take care of my brother's worries. Just take me with you!"
Xu Ling naturally didn't want to, "Nonsense, our new house has been built. It's time for you and Xu An to study and read at home. Isn't this more comfortable than doing business?"
Xu Ping muttered: "No matter how many years you study, you won't necessarily get ahead. Why not make more money? What can't you do with money?"
Those who are studying can use money to buy a place on the list, those who are officials can use money to buy a bigger official, and even the lives of people in prison can be bought with money.
In Xu Ping's view, studying is not as good as making money.
Xu Ling had other things to do and had no time to educate his younger brother. He scolded him and went to the village to find someone. Anyway, he had to travel far. Since he could make money for outsiders, he might as well bring the villagers to make a fortune together.
So Xu Ling went to the banyan tree in the village and told the villagers that he was going on a long trip soon and could help everyone sell things. If anyone had any rare or large goods they wanted to sell, they could contact him for consignment.
The villagers did not expect such a good thing to happen.
Someone asked quickly: "Can the food be sold?"
"You can sell it, but I don't recommend it. You don't know what the harvest will be like next year. You should keep the food at home to eat." Xu Ling advised patiently.
The price of food outside is soaring. Although you can make money by selling food now, if you can't guarantee it, you will have to spend more money buying food next year.
"We won't collect eggs or live animals. If there is nothing to sell at home, hurry up and dig lotus roots in the pond. In the past two days, everyone should seize the time and transport the things you want to sell to my house!"
Xu Ling asked the children in the village to go door-to-door to notify, and he went home and told Fan Shiqing that whoever wanted to sell something should record the goods information, and then go to the town to rent a house.
For two days in a row, Xu Ling was focused on this matter. Thanks to Xu Ling's current character, most people in the village choose to believe him. They have endless amounts of dried fish at home, freshly dug muddy lotus roots, bamboo baskets, straw sandals, wild animal furs...
Fan Shiqing clearly wrote down the name of the person and the corresponding cargo information on the paper, and Xu Ling, Gu Daliang and others were responsible for loading the truck to the town and placing it in the rented courtyard.
Xu Ling announced to the outside world that he rented a boat, which was convenient for traveling far away.
When these goods arrive at Xu Ling's place, they won't give money to the villagers until the money is sold.
The people in the village were honest and honest, and few were afraid that the current Xu Ling would steal their things.
In this way, two days later, Xu Ling got away from the busy acquisition and left Lianhuawanzi again. He first went to Erfang Town to collect thousands of kilograms of goods into the space, and then went to Qinghe Town.
When passing by Lijiazhuang, Xu Ling left another cart of cabbage for Li Dayong, accepted the cabbage money, and headed back to Lingbao Town.
In Lingbao Town, he delivered two carts of groceries to Deyuelou and one cart of groceries to the Xiang Family Martial Arts Hall. Xu Ling purchased one hundred and thirty taels of porcelain here, loaded it into the space, and headed to Quanzhou.
It is now mid-to-late December, and the New Year is coming in less than a month. Xu Ling endured the hard work and suffering of traveling far away in winter and finally arrived in Quanzhou.
