Chapter 226: Set sail

As soon as Wen Lin saw his sister, he said, "Sister, Green Sprout came to tell me that you helped me set up a shop, right?" ”

Wen Hui looked at the second brother and laughed and said, "You came quickly." ”

Wen Lin said: "Sister Princess asked me to supervise the construction of the project, I happened to inspect the streets around here, and when I heard my people say that Green Shoots were looking for me, I asked Green Shoots what was going on, and only then did I know that you wanted me to buy a shop." It's still your brain, I was worried about where to spend the money before, now it's good, how good it is to buy a shop, the money has a place to spend, and it can appreciate to make money. ”

Ma Mingsong almost vomited blood when he heard this, everyone else was worried about how to make money, even the emperor was worried about making money, he was good, and he was worried that he couldn't spend more money.

Wen Hui said: "Then the second brother will hurry up and bring your silver ticket, I didn't pay the deposit for your shop." It was seventy thousand taels of silver. ”

Wen Lin heard this, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll go back and get the silver ticket." After finishing speaking, he turned over and got on the horse, Wen Hui hurriedly shouted: "Hey, you haven't seen if the shop is satisfied?" ”

Wen Lin said: "You just help you take a look, you must pick the best, who in the Great Chu Dynasty will do business?" ”

After saying that, he already ran away. Ma Mingsong said: "Wenlin really trusts you? The relationship between your brother and sister is really good. After speaking, I couldn't help but think of the things in my house, and I was gloomy. Wen Hui saw it and thought to herself, it seems that this Ma family is also a bunch of bloody things. Don't let him be sad here, and get away from the topic.

Wen Hui said: "Brother Ma? This shop is very well bought, and the rest is a matter of sailing? How's this going? ”

Ma Mingsong was really changed the topic and said: "I don't know much about this, these days, I am just busy with the business of the shop, HNA is in charge of the horse, and the dock is in charge of your eldest brother." The prince was in charge of the whole city's eating, drinking, and the management of the craftsmen. ”

Wen Hui nodded and said, "Then I'll wait here for the second brother to go through the formalities." When that's done, I'm going to go back and look at today's accounts. I don't have time today, so I'll go to the dockyard tomorrow. ”

Ma Mingsong nodded and said, "Okay." By the way, speaking of your eldest brother, why did you help your second brother buy a shop, but didn't help your eldest brother buy it? ”

Wen Hui pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Big brother, he has no money, and his money is used to marry his daughter-in-law." ”

Ma Mingsong was confused. It's not good to ask deeply. Then, Wen Hui chatted with him about the planning of the shop, and the two discussed. As he was talking, Wen Lin came back, took the silver ticket, and quickly went through the formalities.

The next day. Wen Hui first went to the account room to distribute the work. Cuiqiao was left behind. Took Biya to the dock in a carriage. The dockyard is relatively far away, and it took a long time to make a carriage to arrive. Wen Hui once again thought in her heart, why is she not yet twelve years old, and when she arrives, she can learn to ride a horse like her brothers. This was a rich man in a previous life. Only aristocrats can play. In her previous life, Wen Hui also went to the horse farm to practice a few times, but she accompanied the customer, and she was not happy at all. Now that I'm here, with this condition, of course I'm eager to try. It's just that my parents have said that they are not allowed to study under the age of twelve. Wen Hui could only wait.

Just thinking about it, the carriage had arrived at the place. The dockyard is right by the sea and is very large. However, most of it is still wasteland, because there are few ships built now, and it will definitely be built on a large scale in the future, so when planning. There was enough room for the dock.

Wen Hui found her eldest brother Wen Jun, and then asked Wen Jun to take her for a tour. What shocked Wen Hui the most was the big ship being built in the dock, the big one, which had been laid with a huge keel and was under construction. Wen Hui looked at this big ship, it was really unimaginable that she could see such a beautiful ancient sailing ship. The design drawings of these ships were all left by Fusu back then.

Thinking about it like this, Wen Hui realized that she also came through it, and compared with Fusu, she was weak. People know everything about astronomy and geography, chemical production, but they don't understand anything, which is really super unbalanced.

Wen Hui was thinking about it, and Wen Jun asked, "How is it?" Does my sister have any comments? ”

Wen Hui was stunned for a moment: "What opinion?" I don't know anything about this, I'm here to find you, and by the way, those of our ships are going to sea. How many are there and how many goods can be loaded, and I also want to ship our goods and sell them overseas. ”

Wen Jun knows that his sister is a person who is unprofitable and can't afford to be early, where would he really care about the sea trade business, I'm afraid he is most concerned about how to sell his family's things at the highest price, right?

Wen Hui saw the expression of the eldest brother, and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm also thinking about my family." ”

Wen Jun looked at his sister dotingly and said, "Okay, I know, I must ask someone to reserve a good position for our family." It's just that what can we sell in our house? ”

Wen Hui said: "We have a lot of things in our house, including preserved fruits, cotton cloth, soybean oil, and the mirror from the Baojing Workshop that I recently opened with my sister-in-law." This thing is profitable. ”

As soon as he said this, Wen Jun remembered it, and involuntarily remembered that self-confident, capable, and generous Mei Zhenlai, and his heart was hot for no reason, and his face turned red.

Wen Hui clapped her hands and said with a smile: "The eldest brother must miss his sister-in-law." This is easy, I can send a letter and ask my sister-in-law to bring the goods in person, so that I can do business and relieve my brother's lovesickness. ”

Wen Jun said with a blank face: "How can she, a girl, escort the goods in person for such a long way?" It's not safe on the road. Also, we have already made a marriage, so we can't meet according to the rules. What is she doing here? ”

Wen Hui said with a smile: "Anyway, it's by water, what are you afraid of, there are many boats along the way." Also, the guards at home can lend her money, which is safer. As for the fact that you can't meet before you get married, anyway, this is not Qingyang City, who cares about others? Also, she didn't come to meet you, she came to do business, could it be that she couldn't even do business when she married her brother? It turns out that my brother thinks the same as those Confucian students, and he doesn't want his wife to show up and do business? ”

Wen Jun hurriedly said: "Where do I have it, our family, isn't my mother taking care of the business?" And you, you're my own sister, and you're not taking care of business, so why can't she? I think she's the best looking when she's running a business. ”

Wen Hui laughed, Wen Jun knew that he had unconsciously said what was in his heart, and he was embarrassed for a while. Fortunately, Wen Jun has been training outside for a few years, and his skin has become thicker, and after a while, he recovered, and began to talk to Wen Hui about the work of the account room, and asked Wen Hui about buying a shop. Wen Hui said one by one: "Brother, look, your money can only be used to get married." My second brother and I will invest it, and we will definitely make a lot of money in a few years. Pity you, but it's also cost-effective, you marry a beautiful woman like a flower, this beauty is still a beauty who can make money. ”

Wen Jun saw that his sister began to tease him again, so he simply ignored him. Wen Hui was busy begging for mercy again. In this way, Wen Hui spent a day with Wen Jun and finalized the position for the first time to go to sea.

The next day, Wen Hui went to help her second brother Wen Lin after handling the accounts. Because she has time, Wen Lin is in charge of a big mess of things alone, and she is so busy that sometimes she doesn't even have time to eat. Wen Hui felt sorry for her brother, so she went to help Wen Lin. With Wen Hui's help, Wen Lin was much more relaxed.

After two days like this, the housekeeper Chen Cai came, and bought the shop that Wen Hui was optimistic about before with the silver ticket, and also took the silver ticket of Mingzhu, and helped Mingzhu also buy the small shop that Wen Hui helped her see.

At the same time, several other shops introduced by Ma Mingsong also came with silver tickets, so that all 30 shops were sold, and the first phase of the project was sold out. More than 1,890,000 taels of silver were received. The princess and the concubine were very happy, and praised Wen Hui's good idea, this time the urgent need was solved, and with these silver at the bottom, they dared to pay off the more than four million taels of silver they owed before, and the people of the province chased after them to ask for money.

Wen Hui said: "Although the first phase of the shop is selling very well, this does not mean that the next few issues will sell well, the key depends on whether we can make money on this voyage?" ”

The horse said: "Sister Wen Hui is right, our fleet is ready, this voyage, we are going to Goguryeo, there are some merchants we have come and go with before, they have already been contacted, just wait for the transaction." We've sent five clippers here, and they've all been booked. The first time I went to sea, I decided that it would be better for me to take it out myself. ”

The princess looked anxious, but she didn't speak, Wen Hui looked at it and said, "Don Ma, you are the city lord of Shanghai City, what should you do if you leave this mess?" In contrast, the construction of our cities, docks, and ports is the most important. ”

As soon as he said this, he began to hesitate: "This is also here, but this first voyage is also very important." These sailors, sailors, many of them are the old departments of my Xu family, if I don't go, I'm afraid that I won't be able to suppress it. At this time, Ma Mingsong said, "I'll go." Anyway, I'm the most idle now. The house in the second phase has not been built yet, this one is in charge of Wen Lin, and Wen Hui is in charge of the account room, so I'll be fine. Besides, many of these sailors are also from our Ma family, so it's better for me to go. You still have to be in command, a colt. Where can the city be done apart from you? ”

The horse frowned: "That's fine, but I'm still a little worried." ”

Wen Jun said at this time: "Anyway, the speedboats in the dock have gone out, and I also want to go and see together, first, I can have a companion with Brother Ma, and second, I also want to sail through Guò to see how about the boat?" What else needs to be improved. Well, I'm going to bring the craftsmen with me. ”

The horse was happy at this moment: "This is the best, so I can rest assured, then when will you set off?" ”
