Youfang Street in the west of the city.

Not far from Cui's grain shop, there is a Kangping grain shop.

The storefront of Kangping Grain Store is a little low-key. In terms of decoration and pomp, it is naturally not as good as a big grain merchant like the Cui family.

However, even if the Cui family is short of food occasionally, Kangping Grain Shop will not be short of food.

Although it has a store, the background is not.

Of course, few people know that behind it is the power of the Kun Party.

The owner of the grain store is named Jiangkang million, a native of Xin'an, Kunshan, and has been a servant in the old house of the Lu family since his father's generation.

The accounts and expenditures of the Kun Party are managed by Bai Yizhang, and it is Kang Million who has handled the specific affairs over the years.

For two days in a row, Kang Million stayed in the store and waited for people.

He naturally knew that Bai Yizhang had handed over the account book now......

Over the years, Bai Shilang, who is known as the iron abacus of the household department, has taken care of the Kun Party's finances in an orderly manner. It's a pity that Bai Yizhang is still too greedy and is no longer suitable to manage the accounts of the Kun Party.

Lord Lu was interested in finding someone to replace him, and when he looked at it, his eyes were on the two brothers of the Wang family's liquor store.

The Wang family, Bai Yizhang, and the Cui family are all in-laws, and the two brothers have business talents and reliable character, so they are indeed suitable candidates.

As a result, this candidate finally fell on the quasi-attached horse Wang Xiao.

Actually, it's the same.

But Kang Million waited for a while yesterday, but he didn't see Wang Xiao coming, and he couldn't help but be a little uncertain.

The young man is still too lazy, can he do such an important thing?

Just thinking about this, Kang Million looked up, but saw a beautiful young man walking into the store with two entourage

Here it comes?

Kang Million's heart moved.

looked at the entourage first, and saw Wang Xiao's two entourage, one of them was quite strong, stunned, and carried a burden; The other is tall and thin, with scars on his face.

Neither of these retinues was in good condition.

Kang Million shook his head in his heart, and his evaluation of Wang Xiao was one level lower.

"Boss Kang?" Wang smiled: "My uncle asked me to come." ”

"Uncle Ling's surname is Bai?"

"Not bad."

Kang Million hurriedly said respectfully: "It's good to attach the horse master to call the old Kang head." ”

He hurriedly came out from behind the counter and said respectfully: "Attached to the horse, you want to go and see your industry?" People are ready. ”

Who knew that Wang Xiao said lightly: "Don't be in a hurry to see." ”

Then, he took out a few documents and said, "Take me to see these warehouses of materials first." ”

Kang Million was stunned. I shook my head in my heart: I don't do anything, what do I do to see these useless things?

He thought for a while before remembering that these warehouses of materials were still prepared by the first emperor during his reign, and no one paid attention to them in the household department, so Bai Yizhang pulled them over, and it has been more than ten years......

The group walked through the lively long street and turned into the eggplant alley, where they saw rows of large warehouses.

The lock outside the bin door was rusty.

Smash open the rusty locks and open the warehouse, and it will be a cloud of dust.

Finally the dust settled, Wang Xiao raised his eyes to look, but saw beams and trees, piles of square stones, many of which made people blink.

Kang Million introduced: "These are ready to be used to expand the palace, although they are not golden silk nanmu, but they are also good huanghuali, more than ten years, and they have not rotted much......

Wang Xiao took a sip of the ashes on his mouth, and scolded in his heart: Bai Yizhang is really a goose, and such a stupid thing must be greedy from the household.

He didn't bother to listen to Kang Million's introduction, and asked, "How much do these things cost?" ”

"The price is ......," Kang Wanwan said: "It cost tens of thousands of taels of silver to get these materials back then, but now I want to sell them, but I can't even sell them for five hundred taels, otherwise Bai Shilang will ......."

"Otherwise, Bai Shilang would have been sold." Wang Xiao said casually.

He then asked Geng Dang to find someone to cross these things to the outskirts of Beijing.

Kang Million was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Attached to the horse, this is what you want?" ”

He only thought that the hairy man in front of him wanted to transport things to build his own house, and after thinking about it for a while, he still persuaded in a low voice: "After all, these are still the things of our Kunshang Guild, I'm afraid it's not easy to take them privately." ”

Wang Xiao smiled and said, "I know." ”

What a Kun merchant guild, the treasury of the Kun Party.

Return your stuff? This is the first emperor's thing.

He turned to look at Kang Wanwan, and said lightly: "You will buy it for me, five hundred taels, right?" I'll go back and write it down. ”

Kang Million was so shocked that his mouth was about to fall, and he glanced down at Wang Xiao again in his heart.

Five hundred taels is just an exaggeration, these are high-quality materials, and they are sold as ordinary materials far more than that.

Isn't it better to multiply?!

Don't have the vision to do business? Someone are you looking for this time......

"This son is actually here to occupy the Kun Party!"

Kang Million was a little angry.

I still have to deal with Master Lu and send this hairy man away and let his two brothers come over.

But he heard the king laugh and said, "This lot, such a large row of houses, was actually taken by you to pile up some useless things. Today I have emptied it, and you will sell what you should sell and rent what you should rent. ”

Kang Million was stunned, and the voice of Wang Xiao in his ear remembered again:

"I did the math casually, the rent of a shop in this area is not high at thirty taels a year, right? Seventeen years will cost five hundred taels, this long shop, you have lost twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver, and you will return the household servant? Scholars do business...... I bah...... It's a lot of dust......"

"What's the use of a scholar doing business and only keeping accounts? Times are different, you must remember in the future, flies are meat ......"

"Hey, let's go there and pick out an engagement gift for Xuan Ce."

Waiting for Wang Xiao to walk away with his two entourage, Kang Million looked at his background, and his heart was really mixed.

The mocking tone of "scholars do business" made him difficult to let go for a long time.

Sure enough, it's the son of a merchant's family.

Businessmen are profitable, and I ......

Afternoon.

Qian Duoduo got into the carriage.

When she saw Zuo Mingxin in the carriage, she felt her eyes red.

"Go to Snowy Alley."

The carriage began slowly.

Zuo Mingxin said a word to the outside, then took Qian Duoduo's hand and asked softly, "Are you okay?" ”

The Zuo family and the Qian family no longer interact. Qian Duoduo came out in the name of the boudoir party, and Zuo Mingxin secretly came to pick her up.

At the party, she felt that her best friends in the past were a little different from her.

Although the words of those people were unclear, they were indeed vaguely sarcastic that her father was so ruthless that he killed his own son.

The women in the boudoir don't know much about the affairs of the court, but everyone is the daughter of the official eunuch, and naturally knows that it is the traitor who takes refuge in the martyrdom.

treats the adulterous concubines, they naturally have no closeness in the past.

At this time, when Zuo Mingxin asked, Qian Duoduo couldn't help crying.

In the past, the high-spirited brother died, she actually didn't feel very sad, but she was somewhat touched, and she was a little uneasy because of the fright of Tang Seng that night.

It was only now that Qian Duoduo felt a trace of comfort in Zuo Mingxin.
