At this time, Yan Shupeng found the soul and said, "Why are you giving me silver, why do you want to give the county lord silver?" ”

Master Wen hurriedly said: "Uncle Peng, if you don't give you silver, can you do something?" There are many talents around the county lord, you have just taken refuge, how can you show your ability? Don't dot up and down? To the county host, without spending money? If you want to do things beautifully, you don't need a helper? Trust me, you need all of that. With your talents, with the help of our literati family and material resources, you will definitely be able to emerge quickly by the side of the county lord, and when the time comes, you will have the merit and introduce our Wen family. Can the county lord treat us badly? When the time comes, we will get the right to the general distribution, and the money spent will be ten times or a hundred times more earned. ”

As soon as he said this, all the heads of the Wen family nodded and praised.

Yan Shupeng's heart moved, this statement was very reasonable. Lord Wenhui said that he wanted to go to the northwest, which was a raw place, and he needed a lot of manpower investment, as well as a lot of silver investment. It is also a credit to him that he can pull the Wen family, a big businessman, to go to the northwest to help the county lord. Of course, it is their business that the Wen family will give the county lord Wen Hui silver and things in the future, and as for the 200,000 taels of benefits given to themselves, it is a big deal that they don't want it. Thinking about it like this, Yan Shupeng no longer refused and said, "I understand, my father-in-law is very thoughtful." So be it. ”

Next, the Wen family and Yan Shupeng discussed how to contribute, Yan Shupeng himself is very talented in organizational ability and management ability, once he figured it out, he had a plan in his mind, and began to discuss it with the Wen family.

Wen on the side looked at this and smiled with satisfaction. I took the children to the back house to visit my mother and aunts.

By the time Yan Shupeng came out of the Wen family's mansion with his wife and children, he already had a stack of silver tickets in his pocket, including 50,000 taels of silver tickets given by Wen 15, and 200,000 taels of silver tickets given by the Wen family. As for the 500,000 taels of silver tickets given to the county lord of Wen Hui, firstly, the Wen family did not have so much cash in their hands, and secondly, the Wen family also wanted to collect more famous paintings, and when the time came, they would send the silver tickets and famous paintings together, so this time they did not let Yan Shupeng take them.

Rao is so. Yan Shupeng returned home. When he closed the door and gave the silver ticket to his wife, Wen, his hands trembled and he said, "Look, so much silver. Your Wen family is really rich. ”

Wen listened to what had happened. couldn't help but smile and said, "After all, our family is a century-old silk businessman. Some family backgrounds are also normal. What's more, in recent years, the entire Huzhou's high-grade Su satin. Tribute satin is our family's general distribution, and the Lan family also gave our family the right to distribute Huzhou cotton cloth, and the annual profit of this item is about 200,000 taels. It is conceivable that if we can set up a line for the Wen family in front of the county lord of Wen Hui, even if we give the general distribution right of Qingchun City's top silk Huzhou to the Wen family, it must be another 200,000 taels of silver every year. No, in fact, overseas silk has been very popular in recent years, and the profits are very large, if you can get it down, it must be more than 200,000 taels, maybe 300,000 taels. It's normal to give us 200,000 taels. ”

Uncle Yan was stunned. Think about it, I can be regarded as good at business, since Wen's marriage, in the past ten years, Yan Shupeng has used Wen's dowry as a book, doing business, and saved two inns and two teahouses in a few years, which can be sold for 50,000 taels at this time. But it's more than my father's more than ten years of money. It's still fast to do business. Thinking about it this way, it is normal for the Wen family to make so much money.

Yan Shupeng said: "That's the case, the Wen family is your maiden family, and I don't need anything, it's just to introduce the Wen family in front of the county lord of Wen Hui, and I get so much silver, I'm uneasy, why don't you return it tomorrow?" ”

Wen smiled and said, "Why do you want to go back?" Our family is not rich, right? Although my dowry is rich, in the past few years, you have managed well and made a lot of money, but your husband is a little Meng, he is kind and charitable, and he has a lot of places to spend money, so how can we not subsidize some? ”

Yan Shupeng smiled and said, "Hasn't the Wen family given us a lot of subsidies in recent years? In what year did you not give the children a lot of silver, saying that it was for the children, wasn't it all subsidized to us in disguise? ”

Wen said: "But our Yan family has taken care of the Wen family in the officialdom in the past few years, and how much trouble has been saved for the Wen family, and all the money should be given to us." ”

Yan Shupeng said: "My father takes care of the Wen family, and the Wen family gives a lot to my father and mother every year. In addition to giving money and things to our family, my father is the first to respond every time he advocates the wealthy families in Huzhou to donate, donate food, repair bridges and roads, disaster relief, and relief, so it is easier for my father to serve in Huzhou in the past few years. The Wen family has already spent a lot, we should do something for your mother's family, besides, I don't know if we can do it? How can you ask for so much money? ”

Wen just likes this point of her husband, really, Wen Yanjiao smiled and said: "I don't care, anyway, I want this money is still useful." Just think of it as a subsidy from my mother's family. You don't care what I do with this money. In the past, you didn't have an errand, so you were in charge of our business, and in the future, you have to follow Lord Wenhui and lead the errand, where is there any effort to take care of this. In terms of business, the expenses of the family will be left to me. ”

Yan Shupeng thought about it, and wanted to postpone the money, but Wen said again: "As for what the husband thinks, I don't know if I can help our family do this, you don't have to worry." Although I haven't met Lord Wenhui, and I don't understand major national affairs, I usually know a thing or two when I hear people say it. The northwest is a bitter cold place, with few people, little production, and flat poverty. In the past, there was a perennial war. Since the husband and wife of the county lord of Wenhui have been entrusted by the emperor and His Royal Highness the crown prince, they need a large number of people and a lot of money to develop there. It's okay to talk about the money. The county lord of Wen Hui is the richest person in Dachu, and now there are a few cities in Nanyang. There is also a Dachu Bank that is larger than the Wang Bank, so naturally there is no shortage of money, but what about this person? You just look at why she came to Jiangnan now, what the county lord of Wenhui lacks most now is people. ”

Yan Shupeng agreed. Listening to his father, Yan Tingshi, as soon as the county lord of Wenhui came, he asked the officials in Jiangnan to help him, and the people who migrated from Jiangnan went to Nanyang to build a new city. Officials in Jiangnan gave the people of the four disaster-stricken prefectures in the three provinces to the county lord of Wenhui. The county lord of Wenhui was very happy, he was busy with this matter, and he also took out a large amount of money to settle down for the people and help the people who stayed behind to rebuild after the disaster. Relieve a lot of pressure from my father's work. From this point of view, Lord Wenhui is very short of people.

Wen said: "The county lord not only needs ordinary people, but also craftsmen, and also needs all kinds of businessmen to invest in the northwest, or how to develop the northwest?" So, husband, you need the help of our Wen family, not to mention this money, that is, the children of the Wen family, there are so many people in the Wen family, so many stewards, and servants, you all need it. Three gangs of a hero. When you're out and about, it's all about helping. As for the Wen family's idea, I guess that at some point, the husband will be able to do it as soon as he talks to the county lord. ”

Yan Shupeng asked strangely, "How do you know?" ”

Wen said: "With the talent and ability of the husband, I will definitely not talk to the county lord of Wen Hui about this now." We, the Wen family, are not in a hurry. When the husband speaks, it must be when the county lord Wenhui approves of the husband, or when the husband makes a contribution to the county lord, is the county lord embarrassed to refute your face at that time? Moreover, the county lord is so short of people, as long as the Wen family is willing to contribute, manpower, and effort, the county lord can treat the Wen family badly. Besides, the Wen family seeks the general distribution right of overseas silk, which is also a good thing for the Xiao Chen family and the county lord, who is it not sold to? The Wen family is at least their own people, and they can be trusted. As long as the county lord agrees, he can sell you a favor, and he can win the Wen family, and he can increase the sales of overseas silk and make more money, can the county lord disagree? ”

Yan Shupeng thought about it, his wife analyzed it very much, and he recently joined the county lord of Wen Hui, and he also wanted to make contributions as soon as possible, it is also a good thing to get the support and help of the Wen family, not to mention anything else, the Wen family has a wide range of contacts, and most of the children are talented, if they can help him run errands, it is still good to do work. My father had a good official reputation in Huzhou for a few years, and part of the reason was the support of the Wen family, and it would definitely be a good thing if he could get such support. Thinking of this, Yan Shupeng couldn't help but smile and said, "You're still right." Okay, so I'm relieved, and we'll take the money. It's just, why do you use so much money? It's better to deposit in the zài bank, or add some land and property, and the shop is good. ”

Wen said: "Although the bank is insured, the interest rate is not high. We already have some of the fields, and besides, the shops in Qingyang City are getting more and more expensive day by day, and the fields in Jiangnan are getting more and more expensive, so I don't want to buy these here. This money, two hundred thousand taels of silver plus fifty thousand taels of our own, I am going to buy some things, and sell them in the northwest with our team, so that we can earn some money on this trip alone. Not to mention, I still have to keep the money to go to the northwest to see what business to do, even if I don't do business, I also want to buy some shops in the northwest, fields and the like. It all takes a lot of money. ”

Yan Shupeng couldn't help but be strange and said: "In the bitter cold land of the northwest, why don't you buy the good land in the south of the Yangtze River and go to the northwest to buy it?" The business in Qingyang City is getting better and better day by day, you don't buy the shops here, why go to the northwest to buy those shops, it's very poor there, what kind of money can you make? ”

Wen smiled mysteriously and said, "Husband, you have spent your time studying miscellaneous science every day, why haven't you even seen through this?" Now the land price in the northwest is cheap, and the shops are cheap, and it is the time to buy in large quantities. It is because everyone knows that the northwest is bitter cold and the economy is underdeveloped, so they don't want to buy property in the northwest, and this is the time when the price is low. However, I know that the price will definitely rise in the future, and this is a strange commodity. ”

Yan Shupeng asked strangely, "How do you know?" (To be continued......)
