"Guess you have to do business as well as write poetry, so you must be working hard day and night. Please take care of your health." Shen Gui said sincerely, holding the bright-colored and plump ginseng in his hands.
To be honest, Daqian is located in the southeast, along the coast.
Ginseng is only produced in the Yayu Mountains in the north.
But Gu Beichuan knew exactly what that area was.
This ginseng, I'm afraid I have a life to collect it, but I don't have a life to eat it.
Especially the one in Shen Gui's hand, I'm afraid it's quite old. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's priceless but not marketable.
This gift, I have to say, is particularly valuable!
Use this to test cadres... Which cadre can withstand this test?
But Gu Beichuan was obviously not an ordinary person.
First of all, he had no use for this ginseng.
Secondly, he has money, a lot of money, and knows many big names in the literary world. If you really want it, put off the relationship and look for a way, you may not be able to find it.
But... no matter what, Shen Gui's sincerity is enough.
Gu Beichuan couldn't help but improve his tone, and said: "Commissioner Shen, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I'm not very talented and knowledgeable, so please find another job."
After saying this, Gu Beichuan tried to leave, but found that he couldn't walk.
When he looked back, he was hugged by Shen Gui.
And there were actually tears on that fat face.
This... this scene, why does it seem so familiar?
You...you and Dong Zhou's family were the same family five hundred years ago, right?
"Gu everyone, you can't leave."
"My son is the only son of the three generations of the Shen family. It is rare to have such a talented scholar."
"After taking the Juren exam, every year I failed in poetry and essays."
"It's been three years since I took the exam!"
"This year, this is the fourth year. I waited for him to pass the imperial examination until my hair turned gray."
"Just do it and teach the dog a lesson."
"I, Shen Gui, can do whatever I want."
These words can be described as bursting into tears, with runny nose and tears.
Gu Beichuan was extremely helpless and said, "Let me go first."
"Ahem, I'm rude." Shen Gui didn't want to let go, but then he thought, going too far is not enough. If it makes everyone Gu unhappy, it will be self-defeating.
"Commissioner Shen, I feel your sincerity." Gu Beichuan said as he looked at the stained patch on his clothes.
Wet sincerity.
"I can teach Mr. Ling."
Hearing this, Shen Gui stood up almost excitedly.
But then, I heard Gu Beichuan say again:
"But I don't know, what price can Yuan Shen pay?"
"Whatever everyone wants, just ask. As long as Shen has it, he will definitely give it to you." Shen Gui said sincerely.
"Is Mr. Shen engaged in the cloth business?" Gu Beichuan answered the question at this time.
"Yes, that's right." Although Shen Gui felt strange, he still replied respectfully.
"What's the scale?"
"Shen Ji's cloth shop has a total of twenty-one shops, all over Huainan."
Hearing this, Gu Beichuan was shocked.
He only has a dozen restaurants, but he has already monopolized Huainan's catering industry.
Now it seems that the Shen family's cloth business is not that big, and they probably have a monopoly on Huainan's cloth industry.
"Do you have a garment business?"
"Most of the cloth is simply sold. Only the best materials will be cut into one or two pieces, made into clothes, and placed in the store for people to watch."
Use gorgeous ready-made clothes to attract women to spend?
Hearing this, Gu Beichuan nodded secretly again.
It’s worthy of being able to make such a big business. This business thinking is really not bad.
"Then what if I want Shen to remember half of the members? I wonder if Mr. Shen can agree?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire living room instantly became cold.
Businessmen pursue profits!
To ask for 30% of those restaurant owners is like asking for their lives, let alone 50%?
After saying this, even if Shen Gui was easy to talk to, he might not be able to agree.
In fact, Gu Beichuan didn't expect him to agree.
But just when Gu Beichuan stood up to leave, Shen Gui's deep voice sounded.
"Fifty percent is too much, I'll give you 30% at most."
Uh-huh!
Hearing this, Gu Beichuan turned his head suddenly, his eyes shining with surprise.
"Does Mr. Shen really mean what he said?"
"Of course." At this time, Shen Gui's face had lost its smile. If you look carefully, there is even a scowl hidden in his eyes.
"I wonder when everyone can start teaching dogs?"
"No!"
"If 30% is not enough, I want 50%."
boom!
Shen Gui stood up, slapped the table, and shouted angrily: "Look out for everyone! Don't go too far!"
"It's absolutely impossible for a 50% member!"
"What if I can make Mr. Ling rank among the top three in the palace examination?" Facing the angry Shen Gui, Gu Beichuan said calmly.
Nonsense, you want half of the person's net worth as soon as you open your mouth. Only if you don't get angry do you have trouble.
"This... please don't make jokes." Shen Gui's anger went away as quickly as it came.
Mainly because what Gu Beichuan said was too unbelievable and simply impossible.
You know, that's the imperial examination!
His child is now just a civil servant, and it is hard to say whether he can pass the national examination.
After passing the examination, you will be a tribute scholar. There are so many candidates for Daqian, but there are only about 300 tributes every year, which shows how rare it is.
Gongshi must take the palace examination the next month. Logically speaking, after becoming a Gongshi, the palace examination is just a formality, and ordinary Jinshi will not run.
At the end of the day, you can also have the same background as a Jinshi.
But the top three are completely different!
Students across the country are eyeing the three positions of No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3. They are bound to go through a fierce competition, and the difficulty is no less than another test.
What's more, most of the Daqian countries are leaning towards the north, and the focus of education has also been in the north in recent years.
As a result, in previous years, Jinshi were often from the north.
One year, one to ten people were all from the north.
When the list came out, all the students in the south were in an uproar, and the quarrel continued for a full month.
Finally, in order to quell public anger, Emperor Renxuan had no choice but to re-select Enke.
But even so, it also exposed the fact that the literary world in Daqian is not as good as the north.
So, is it possible to let his son, who failed to pass the imperial examination for three years, take the top three in the palace examination?
"I wasn't kidding."
"Because I want 50% of Shenji Buhang's members! I also want Shenji Buhang to change its plaque and name like those restaurants!"
After hearing this, Shen Gui's face that had just softened became gloomy again.
How could this be an important person? They clearly want Shen Ji Bu Xing to change his surname!
Change it to his Feihong surname!
If Shen Gui agrees, I'm afraid there will be no more Shen Ji Buhang in the future, only Feihong Buhang will be left!
"I know it's impossible for Mr. Shen to agree. After all, it's the inheritance of our ancestors. How can we give it up to others?"
"But, Master Ling, really don't want to be in the top three of the imperial examination for fun?"
Shen Gui was so angry that he was itching his teeth. He was one of the top three in the imperial examination. What does it mean to play?
You don’t have any fame yet, that’s really a big statement.
"So, why don't you and I make a big bet?"
"There is still some time until next spring. During this period, I will do my best to teach Mr. Ling."
"When spring comes next year, if Master Ling is really among the top three in the high school examination, please fulfill his promise and give me 50% of Shen Jibu's membership, and change his name to Zhang."
Shen Gui pondered for a while and said, "What if everyone Gu's teachings are ineffective and Quan Zi never gets into the top three?"
"Gu won't take any money." Gu Beichuan smiled, and Shen Gui was dumbfounded.
Is there such a good deal in the world?
