(395), Boss Jin and his golden abacus
~
As the person who arranged this mansion with his own hands, and now he is a guide, Wang Zhe's mood is completely different from the other two people who will move in, he has a trace of excitement and a trace of expectation. However, his expectation was different from Ruan Luo's, it was a little mischievous, and he was looking forward to seeing the expression on Ruan Luo's face after walking through the door.
A few days ago, Wang Zhe and Ruan Luo returned to Beijing together, and when they just arrived in Kyoto, Wang Zhe sent Ruan Luo to the Hengtaiguan block, preparing to hurt some money, and let him stay there for a few days, where it was quiet.
But then the plans changed. When he had just entered the Hengtai Pavilion block and had not yet decided on the location, Ruan Luo met an acquaintance there, who was the first of the Beijing merchants who had complained a few hours ago when Wang Zhena's father was the emperor in front of the Qihui Building.
Boss Kim is a native of Kyoto, and he has always been doing business in Kyoto, but he has never grown bigger. Despite the political turmoil in Kyoto, Boss Kim has never left the area, and he is a businessman with a clear sense of region.
If there is such a thing as providence in the world, then while providence is stingy in giving Boss Jin financial luck, it has given him a wide range of popularity. Although his business has been in a state of patchwork for a long time, he has gradually accumulated a lot of contacts and credit during this time among the merchants in Kyoto.
In the thirteenth year of Tianyun, Wang Chi took his Northern Route Army to stab Kyoto, and Emperor Zhou Ling finally had no chance to continue to be promiscuous, and was fortunate to become the last emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Emperor Ling, who had been standing still in the position of hedonism and profligacy, saw that his ancestors and ancestors had gone, and Boss Jin, who had been dismantling the east and making up for the west, and maintained his dream of doing business, finally ushered in his ideal spring.
In Wang Chi's Fuzheng Sheji plan, there is a more important part, that is, a commercial power. Therefore, when Wang Chi ascended the throne as emperor, the first action in the field of business was to support the commerce of Kyoto. And the first group of businessmen to benefit. It is a businessman like Boss Jin who is at the grassroots level of business, but he is very enthusiastic and loyal to Kyoto, a capital city near the sea.
The reason for the slight bias that the emperor pointed to this time is probably only clear in his own heart, but Boss Jin has finally made his business hot in this change. In addition, when the foundation of the Hengtai Pavilion block was just laid, part of the management rights had actually been given to Boss Jin, which can be regarded as the emperor's grace.
The purpose of the emperor to preside over the construction of the museum is very clear, it is necessary to make more money in this neighborhood and then pay more taxes to the treasury, and this work has to be done by a special person to play its all-round, so it has to be handed over to businessmen to do. But why did you choose Boss Kim? The reasons for this are somewhat intriguing. However, after several years of business training, Boss Jin himself has some understanding, which is probably related to the extensive popularity he has mastered.
In a word. After assuming this responsibility, Boss Jin's identity has risen sharply, and his face can shine. But the land managed by Boss Jin was built by the state treasury and the country, so the so-called tax rate is frighteningly high. In fact, most of the bosses who are the big bosses of this neighborhood are just counting the money for the treasury. The amount of silver that can be included in his own family is pitiful, but the glory that this job brings to Boss Jin is not something that can be measured clearly by silver.
Let's put it this way, Boss Kim has really become a golden sign in Kyoto, which not only invigorates the business of Hengtai Pavilion, a neighborhood with extremely high rental fees, but also illuminates the prosperity of the Jin family's own industry.
But. When he first took over the business in the Hengtai Pavilion block, Lao Jin was still a little embarrassed, after all, he had been doing small businesses before. Inexperienced.
When all the buildings in the Hengtai Pavilion block were piled up in Lao Jin's account room, he himself was a little stupid. The pages of the ledger were like leaves of all colors, mixed together, and he had to sort them out one by one. In the case of great care, there will also be the income and expenditure of the Xiagui Building in the West Pavilion District in the spring to the income and expenditure of the Autumn Flag of the East Pavilion Building. Calculate the mistake of a confused account.
After learning about this situation, His Majesty the Emperor continued to not remove Boss Jin. He also summoned Ruan Luo, who was studying in the north, back to temporarily take over the liquidation work.
If the business presided over by Boss Jin is a malnourished fruit tree, one day the harvest will be harvested and full of fruits, but when it is unable to support it because of the thinness of the branches, Ruan Luo's ability to join is like a bamboo pole, supporting the trunk that is about to bend and pass the most dangerous hurdle.
At the beginning of spring the following year, this 'fruit tree' not only re-bloomed and fruited, but after a season of attention and rest, it became stronger and no longer had to be supported by 'bamboo poles'. But Ruan Luo's 'bamboo pole' helped Boss Jin's 'fruit tree', but it was a kindness that Boss Jin could not forget.
After Ruan Luo helped Boss Jin for two years, he went to Bojun to recuperate. Although Boss Jin knew that Ruan Luo's body was already relatively weak, and he couldn't blame himself for his illness, Boss Jin himself still felt sorry for it. In the second year after Ruan Luo left, Boss Jin began to miss the days when Ruan Luo was in charge of the general affairs of the accounting office.
After three years, when he met Ruan Luo again, Boss Jin was excited and naturally took the initiative to be the east, and warmly entertained the 'Golden Abacus' who was kind to him.
This is good, without Wang Zhe spending money or even using his identity to dispatch, this boss Jin, who has now become the general affairs manager of the Hengtai Pavilion block, provided a guest house with a price and specifications that are not low, so that Ruan Luo lived for several days. In addition, all food and clothing are sent to the door. If it weren't for the fact that Ruan Luo likes to be quiet, and Wang Zhe glared at him, Boss Jin would even invite Kyoto's top dancer to sing and sleep.
However, when the shrewd businessman Boss Jin arranged these extremely meticulously, it was not difficult to think through what might be the reason why Ruan Luo came back so suddenly, and he who had the nickname of 'Golden Abacus' did not have a trace of his return revealed to the business world before. Therefore, the abacus in his heart was moving rapidly, thinking that he could hold on to Ruan Luo for as long as he wanted. He grabbed Ruan Luo, and Ruan Luo's ability would be like a tough rope, tightening the Jin family's money bag without leaking.
Boss Jin cares so much about Ruan Luo, not only because of Ruan Luo's ability to manage accounts, but also because of a layer of trust. With Ruan Luo's life experience and the close relationship between His Majesty the Emperor, in the face of this emperor's business, Ruan Luo will inevitably do his best, which is incomparable to other arithmeticians.
However, Boss Jin's abacus had only been finalized for a day, and Wang Zhe, who came back with him, made his words clear and asked him to keep Ruan Luo's return a secret in advance. Boss Jin knew who Wang Zhe was, he could say this, it seemed that the reason he guessed had not deviated much, and he could only shake all the beads on the abacus back to their original positions.
Boss Jin was a little apprehensive about this, but he couldn't help it, and found out some dead accounts and wrong accounts that he had accumulated in the past three years, and asked Ruan Luo for help. Ruan Luo studied for several years when he was young, and the skills he gained were exactly this, and he had a friendship with Boss Jin in the past, so he naturally would not refuse.
But when the matter was agreed, there was still an accident. If Ruan Luo hadn't reminded Wang Zhe emphatically, saying that Boss Jin didn't have time to recopy the copies, and these account books given to him were all unique ones, Wang Zhe might have been returning the building before, and when he just took over the stack of account books from him, he would have thrown them into the corner while people were not paying attention.
Living in his house, when there is a farewell, today Ruan Luo said goodbye to Boss Jin's repeated retention, but from staying in Hengtai Pavilion to leaving there today, in the past few days, all matters about the new residence were handled by Ruan Luo. Although Ruan Luo, who was enjoying it, was a little embarrassed, he knew that the so-called Song family was not simple, and the inextricable relationships were all connected to the supreme venerable in the palace.
Ruan Luo knew that he had received such an arrangement, but he was really under the shadow of his father, and his father's exploits during his lifetime were also inflicted on him by his father's acquaintances. Pull it out, it's not that he is not unqualified to enjoy these, and what he can do in return is not to refuse, but to do his best with his own ability. Therefore, Wang Zhe wants to come down as soon as he responds, so be it.
But when he just arrived in front of the mansion in front of him, Ruan Luo's heart couldn't help but be surprised, just because this mansion was a little more 'spacious' than he had considered, and there were actually five entrances.
The group of three walked through the square doors, round doors, arc moon gates, and overlapping corridors, until they entered the reception hall in the middle of the entire mansion, and it was not until the maid served refreshments that Ruan Luo, who was sitting at the lacquered and polished hexagonal table, calmed down a little.
The sound of the maid retreating also brought Mo Ye back to his senses.
Before this, when she lived in Xingjia Village, that home was a typical small courtyard with a front and back opening. But in the eyes of the villagers of Xingjia Village, such a house is already a very eye-catching specification. And two days ago, she lived in Ye Mansion, and she felt that compared with her own small courtyard, the Ye Mansion in the second place was more magnificent. It's just that there are only two people in the Ye Mansion's master's family, and the maids and servants don't use it much, so the courtyard of the second entrance often seems a little empty.
Now enter the five-entry mansion again...... Mo Ye couldn't help but glance at Ruan Luo.
Just one person... Oh no, there is one more of her, and a few servants—presumably when there is only one master's house, there should not be many servants, so how empty will this house be in the future?
Mo Ye didn't know that this mansion was originally the home mansion of her master Lin Shan, who was given to her by His Majesty the Emperor with a reward. At the beginning of the great cause, Lin Shan retreated, and after his accession to the throne, His Majesty the Emperor had little chance to give him a little of the fruits of victory, even wealth or power. As his close friend and comrade-in-arms, His Majesty has remembered this debt in his heart for a long time.
