Zhang Yan had just returned home after buying vegetables from the East Market, and was about to help his mother pick vegetables and wash rice together. However, before he could even roll up his sleeves, he was called away by a young girl who suddenly ran back.
"Second brother! Mr. Zhou has gone to the store, you, come over quickly!" The panting Zhang Huiyuan's face turned red. She was probably exhausted from running around.
"Mr. Zhou? Why did he go to the store?" Zhang Yan took his time.
"Oh! Second brother! Come with me quickly! Don't keep Mr. Zhou waiting!" Zhang Huiyuan is not as ordinary as her second brother. In her heart, Zhou Cang is a great figure. He can come from his own shop. It’s all a matter of great honor, how can we neglect it? Without Zhang Yan, not to mention Zhang Huiyuan, even Zhang Shun would feel guilty and needed Zhang Yan to go over and calm the situation.
Wang Lanping in the kitchen was also a little anxious and urged Zhang Yan to come over.
"Okay, okay, I'll be there right away." Zhang Yan wiped his hands with a smile and followed the little sister out the door. Her steps seemed neither hurried nor slow, but her walking was no slower than Zhang Huiyuan's trotting, and her breathing was even and she didn't feel out of breath at all.
This is the superficial application of Earth Escape. Although he is not able to escape underground, the escape from the surface can still make the wind blow under his feet, as if the ground is pushing him forward. Zhang Yan even put a hand on the younger sister's shoulder, which made Zhang Huiyuan, who was out of breath from running, suddenly feel light.
When we arrived at Zhang Ji Woodware Shop, business was as busy as usual. Because Carpenter Liu not only called back his son for help, but also hired six craftsmen like him from his hometown. He found a shabby house in the east of the city and worked all night to complete the inventory. Now he has completed the previous Ninety percent of what was owed was cashed in, and the rest could be cleared within a few days. In the future, it will be available for sale.
Of course, these people are not enough. Zhang Yan is already discussing with his eldest brother about expanding the business. It took a lot of effort to convince the elder brother who wanted to take things steadily. If something with a low technical threshold like a wheelchair wants to become big, it must be fast! Be ruthless!
Quickly occupy a larger market and spend money ruthlessly. Otherwise, no matter how good the product is, even a time-honored brand will not become a big hit. The Zhang family relies on the various ideas and novel things that Zhang Yan brought from the earth, so they can't just settle for a small fortune, right? At the very least, it’s not too much to make a fortune, right?
After entering the store, I quickly saw Zhou Cang sitting in the small tea room inside and Zhang Shun chatting with him.
"Sir, the common people are late. Please forgive me for your slightness!" Zhang Yan stepped forward with a smile, bowing his hands and being polite.
Zhou Cang laughed and stood up from his chair, raised his hand and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, Mr. Zhang? Zhou came uninvited and disturbed Mr. Zhou. It is Zhou who should be sorry." That’s right!”
The tea room is actually just a cubicle, unobstructed. Many customers in the store are looking here cautiously. After all, the few guards guarding the door are enough to be conspicuous, not to mention that the person sitting inside is the dignified city guard officer Zhou Cang of Langyuan City.
At this time, seeing Zhou Cang standing up and clasping his fists in return to a young man, many people were exclaiming, curious about the young man's background? How can Zhou Cang be so polite?
Some people who had heard about the background of Zhang Ji Woodware Shop were secretly shocked. It turned out that Zhang Yan, the second in the Zhang family, was really on good terms with Zhou Cang? And it seems that he can still make friends with Zhou Cangping? But...why?
Aren’t the Zhang family just ordinary people? I heard that the second son of his family had been a criminal soldier, so why did he start walking away so quickly? Are you still talking about friendship with a big shot like Zhou Cang?
There are many people who don't understand. But this does not prevent them from moving the Zhang family up. Especially those so-called upper-class people who want to take advantage of the Zhang family's hot business, they really need to weigh their own weight to see if they are enough to slap Zhou Cang.
On the way here, Zhang Yan guessed that Zhou Cang didn't go to his home but came directly to the store to save some money to help Zhang Jiazhuang's momentum. He had to accept this favor. Of course, I don’t think it’s hard to repay this favor. Zhou Cang needs him more now. As Zhang Yan's cultivation and alchemy skills gradually improved, these changes he believed would only become bigger and bigger.
"I was busy with official duties, so I couldn't come to the store to congratulate you in person. Don't blame Mr. Zhang."
"Your Majesty, that's too polite to say. The Zhang family can do business so smoothly, and it only requires your care and attention."
"Haha, Mr. Zhang is too humble. With your ability, what else can be difficult for you to do?"
We chatted for a while. Zhang Yan clearly felt that Zhou Cang's posture was much lower during this meeting than the last time they met. I was wondering if it might be related to Luo Changshan?
But even if Zhang Yan guessed these things correctly, he would not ask them. Everyone has their own paths and interpersonal relationships. Even if there are too many worries involved, it is everyone's own business. It points out that many times it is not beneficial, and it is good to know it in your heart, otherwise it is easy to hurt the other person's face.
This is actually what the so-called "maintaining an appropriate distance" means.
"I just chatted with Brother Zhang Shun for a while. This wheelchair is really a good thing for benefiting people. Business is good as it should be. And it should be better. This will also be of great benefit to the people in the country..." Zhou Cang was full of praise, especially for the most praised wheelchair. The price of one is affordable even for ordinary people, and it is not even too painful. As for those high-end and expensive wheelchairs, it doesn’t matter how expensive they are, they are not for ordinary people anyway.
"My eldest brother is right. My eldest brother himself has suffered from disability. Now he has returned to normal life with the help of a wheelchair. I deeply feel that this thing should help more people who need it. So I am also considering expanding some stores recently, or in Store some goods elsewhere so that more people can know about the good stuff.”
How come Zhang Yan can't do it? Direct your business to "doing good things" and make money on the way. You will not lack fame and benefits, and you can also win reputation. How cheap is it?
And to expand the business, currently it seems that relying on Zhou Cang's connections is the most direct way. Zhang Yan was also leaving a hole in advance for future matters, so that it would not be abrupt to bring it up at that time.
However, what Zhang Yan didn't expect was that Zhou Cang followed his words and didn't mean to "keep it" at all. He said directly: "It just so happens that I have a vacant shop over at Xiangkou. If Mr. Zhang needs it, just take it." That’s it.” He even took out the house deed...
Zhang Yan blinked and was a little stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would be waiting for him here. And I took a look at the size of the store on the property deed. It was more than twice the size of the current Zhangji Woodware Shop in Langyuan City, and it was also the busiest market district in Xiangkou. Is Zhou Cang going to bet heavily on him?
