Guo Dan simply passed it perfunctorily, and then immediately asked Chen Xusheng to send someone to invite some very famous squires from Weihui Mansion to come here to discuss the matter.

It can be seen that the exchange of power with these squires was not planned by Guo Dan a long time ago, he has been busy restoring the agriculture and commerce of Weihui Mansion during this period, and he has not taken into account these problems that he usually has difficulty encountering, this is really a temporary idea, so both Chen Xusheng and Wu Guansheng feel that Guo Dan's decision was a little too hasty.

That's power!

It is the most precious thing in the world.

In fact, it is not, because in his previous life, Guo Dan just arrived on Wall Street, someone told him that in ancient and modern times, people sitting on the throne are like flowing water, but the throne made of gold is eternal.

This is capitalism.

Most of the businessmen there are reluctant to enter politics, because power is too precious, everyone wants to have it, and naturally it becomes the hot potato, but if you don't touch it, you can't do it, so the best way is to let others pick it up with your hands, and what the businessman has to do is to see whether the gold is placed on his left hand or his right hand, if it is placed on his left hand, then he can only use his right hand to pick up the hot potato.

Although the Ming Dynasty was a completely different society from that society, Guo Dan preferred to use what he was good at, he tried not to touch power, he just focused on making money, and when the profits were large enough, it would naturally affect many aspects.

After the order, Guo Dan went to find Zhou Feng and them again.

He alone can't contract the entire Weihui Mansion, he doesn't have so much money, he must need financing, which is why he always reserves a seat for Zhou Feng and them, this is not about feelings, but about money, he needs Zhou Feng and their money.

The green building they opened is called the Hot Spring Pavilion, which is actually the backyard of the Luwang Mansion, because there is a natural hot spring there, so it is named the Hot Spring Pavilion.

Although this was opened by Zhu Yihua and them, Guo Dan also gave advice from the side, Qinglou is very important, Guo Dan will not let them come.

There is a one-stop service in Wen Quan Pavilion, from foot soaking, massage, steaming, to singing and dancing, and the final "copy", it is really all available and meticulous.

Foot soaking, massage, and steaming all come from traditional Chinese medicine, and there are already these health preservation techniques, which are generally only qualified to be enjoyed by large families, because they have maids and servants, and Guo Dan is just commercializing these health preservation techniques.

"Guo Gongzi!"

"Guo Gongzi!"

.....

When I came here, I saw hundreds of beautiful girls waving handkerchiefs at Guo Dan, throwing flattering eyes.

Almost all the courtesans and girls in Weihui Mansion have come here.

Because some time ago, all the green buildings in Weihui Mansion were closed down, even after Guo Dan came, he did not recover, because there were no customers.

Now it is Xu Jirong who burns money to support them, but because of the existence of the five guns, it is not for nothing, and those women can also be used as models and paint spring palace paintings, and now it is not good to paint spring palace paintings in Beijing, because those scholars and doctors are staring at them, but here, no one cares.

Anyway, as long as it is the industry of Weihui Mansion, the scale must be the largest in the Ming Dynasty, and Qinglou is no exception.

However, now everyone knows that the biggest in this Weihui Mansion is Guo Dan, and the richest is also Guo Dan, so Guo Dan is naturally the most popular, and this will definitely not happen in other state capitals.

Guo Dan just smiled and beckoned, he was very busy now, but he was in the mood to do these things, and asked a person who was in charge of managing this place: "Where are the merchants who came to the capital now?" ”

"Oh, they're in the lounge in the waterside area, let's take you there."

"No need, I'll just go by myself, you're busy."

Guo Dan nodded with a smile, and then walked towards the water pavilion area.

The water pavilion area is the artificial lake in the Luwang Mansion, now half of it is changed into a hotel, half is occupied by Wen Quange, all the lounges are facing the lake, and this side is without a wall, changed to a sliding door, this door is opened, you can see the lake view.

Nowadays, the best business is here, almost all of them are full, and those Jin merchants are tired from traveling, so of course they spend this money to relax here.

When they came to a very spacious lounge, they saw Zhou Feng, Cao Da, Qin Zhuang, and Duan Changcun wearing pajamas, lying on the couch, and the four girls were helping them wipe their hair.

Seeing Guo Dan coming, they didn't want to get up, and Zhou Feng and Qin Zhuang still had embarrassed smiles on their faces.

"How's the service here?"

Guo asked with a smile.

"But there is nothing to say."

Cao Da is true colors of a man are undoubtedly revealed, and he said with a smile: "When I looked at the price before, I thought it was too expensive, but it was not cheaper than Jingshi, but after this set, the money was really worth it, and I don't feel tired at all now." ”

Duan Changcun also said with a grin: "We are still saying that we have to come back tomorrow." ”

"A few people are satisfied."

Guo Dan nodded with a smile, and said, "What about those guys?" ”

"They're still playing in the hot springs."

Zhou Feng waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "We are old, but we can't play anymore." ”

It's not about bathing in a hot spring, but playing in a hot spring, and there is definitely a show.

At this time, a young man in his twenties walked in, "Guo Gongzi, do you want to soak your feet too?" ”

"Excuse me!"

Guo Dan waved his hand and said, "I'm still young, so it's not suitable to lie here." So saying, he sat down in a rocking chair by the windowsill.

Cao Da hurriedly said: "That's them, when I have a day off, I'll go to the hot spring to play." ”

Zhou Feng suddenly said to the four girls: "You guys just retreat first, and come back later." ”

"Yes."

The four girls were still very careful to wrap their heads up, and then respectfully retreated.

As soon as they left, Zhou Feng said: "Virtuous nephew, I won't tell you, in fact, we already know in the capital that you are very successful here, but we just think that you have successfully taken over Weihui Mansion, but we didn't expect that Weihui Mansion is better than before." ”

Qin Zhuang nodded and said, "When I was young, I also passed by this Weihui Mansion, but whether it is the road or the dock, it is much better than before!" I don't know what tricks the virtuous nephew used? ”

Guo smiled lightly: "Actually, the solution is very simple, that is, to throw money, now everyone here eats food, I spent money to buy it, if you are willing to spend so much money, you can do it, so you have to quickly transport the silver over, my money has been almost spent, you also see the scale of those workshops, I can't support it alone." ”

Zhou Feng hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from the virtuous nephew, the four of us rushed over, this person brought more than a thousand taels, this silver is still behind, so much silver, you have to find someone to escort it." ”

Guo Dan nodded and said, "I'll give me all your money later, I'm short of money here, and then I'll send someone to urge me." ”

"That's fine."

Qin Zhuang immediately waved his hand and said.

They were already quite embarrassed, because they all knew Guo Dan's difficulties, raising the entire Weihui Mansion, which was not easy, and maybe only Guo Dan could do it.

Zhou Feng said suddenly: "Virtuous nephew, I just asked about their remuneration, but it is not cheap, just those few girls, they not only have a fixed remuneration every month, but also do a job, and you can get a bonus of 10%, in business, Weihui Mansion is now in this situation, give them a bite to eat, they also have to do it, they can't give so much, of course, I also know the difficulties of your nephew, after all, you have to let them support you, give a little more, it should be, but this is a little too much, I thought, just according to today's remuneration, But that includes the taxes we help them pay. ”

Guo smiled lightly: "Outside, I'm a dry tooth worker, how much should I give, don't I understand?" ”

Zhou Feng said: "Virtuous nephews can buy people's hearts if they spend less money." ”

Guo Dan shook his head and said, "It's okay at present, but what about the future?" We can't just focus on the present, after all, I took over here, it's just a special situation, if we want to stay here for a long time, we have to make the life of the people here better, so that they won't want to go back to the past, so that we can continue to stay here. ”

Speaking of this, he paused: "Yes, this salary is a little higher, but as long as there are many customers, then this money is nothing, and our advantage is that we are tax-free and there is no government." ”

This is a big truth, of course he also wants to pay less, he is a capitalist, not a good person, and the key to capital is to squeeze surplus value, generally speaking, wages will be determined according to the actual situation, now they can't even eat, then of course they should only give food to eat, and when they are really dissatisfied, they will give a little more, slowly go up, and be able to earn a little is a little.

But the situation of Weihui Mansion is very special, the entire Ming Dynasty is tax-free, mercantil, free and equal on this land, which is a great advantage, enough to achieve a monopoly position, and it is not a big deal to give a little salary.

If every state capital was the same, he would never give so much.

Zhou Feng thought for a while, then nodded with a smile and said, "You're right, otherwise, those Jin merchants wouldn't have come here so quickly." Hehe. ”

And their arrival, as well as the appearance of Jin merchants, greatly relieved Guo Dan's pressure, in fact, he has no money, and now he is waiting for businessmen to invest, he can't support it alone.

In the next two days, many merchants from the capital rushed to Weihui Mansion, and some merchants came to anchor here, bringing money and consumption.

Soon, Wen Quange's income and expenditure were about to be balanced, and this growth rate was terrifying.

Zhou Feng and Cao Da began to get anxious, seeing that there were more and more guests, but their chefs would still be on the way, it was really terrible, at present, the most difficult thing to find in Weihui Mansion was the chef, because the restaurants on the street, as well as Wen Quange, needed chefs.

However, there are more and more people, and the rules have to be set quickly.

The ancients were right, there are no rules.

In fact, freedom is built on the rules, but later generations are about to play this freedom to the bad, and gradually it is based on human nature, rather than freedom, as long as most people want to do something, they can do it, whether it is xi poison, shoot each other, or "brush copies".

Guo Danke learned this bad habit, businessmen are still more contract-oriented.

Three days later, the squires finally arrived at Weihui's mansion.

Guo Dan didn't go to greet them on the pretext, but asked Huang and Xu Erlao to pick them up, because Guo Dan didn't want to fight with them, he didn't have so much energy, he would rather spend this effort on the pigsty, you discuss it first, and then come and talk to me.

The two elders Xu and Huang of Dashu Village told them the reason for the incident, but halfway through the conversation, those squires were completely blown up.

"It's really unreasonable, this is a rule set by the ancestors, how can it be abolished."

"You must know that he invited us to talk about this, and the old man will not even come."

"If I forget my ancestors, won't I be as good as a beast."

"You're not going to say yes, are you?"

.....

Huang Lao hurriedly said: "Everyone, let's calm down our anger first, listen to me first, the tooth merchant said, if we don't agree, we will send the eunuchs of the East Factory to take care of this matter." ”

As soon as these words came out, some squires hesitated.

And an old man with white hair was leaning on crutches and said: "So what, don't be frightened by him, if he dares to abolish the ancestral hall, everyone in the world will turn against him, and the saints don't dare to do it today, the old man doesn't believe that he dares to do this." ”

Many people agreed.

The ancestral hall is very important to every people, this is the heritage of Chinese civilization, who wants to abolish the ancestral hall, it will really rebel, in fact, the royal family also has the ancestral hall, but Wanli, the freak, doesn't care about these.

"If he wants to abolish the ancestral hall, it will be easy to say, but he didn't say that he wants to abolish the ancestral hall."

Xu Lao sighed and said: "Brother Huang and I are afraid that he will play conspiracy with us, now this grain is in his hands, and the power is also in his hands, we are not afraid of this Ming, but if he wants to come to the dark, then we are really unable to guard against it!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly quieted down and looked at each other.

Huang Lao immediately said: "Wen Yan and I have been thinking about this matter for the past few days, why did that tooth merchant do this, I think he still wants to show friendship with us, he is also afraid that we will be enemies of him, we still have to talk to them now, if we tear our faces, then there will be no room for redemption!" ”

"But you can't talk about your ancestors!"

"He didn't say that he wanted to abolish the ancestral hall, he just said that he wanted to respect the law, so that it would be fair to everyone, I think we only need to make some concessions in terms of the law, not to the tooth merchant, and it is we who will be judged in the end."

After hearing this, everyone's indignant expressions gradually became hesitant.

"Who can guarantee that after we agree, he will really give us the right to judge."

"If he can't make sure of that, then we don't have to promise them."

Everyone nodded slightly, and then looked at the oldest old man, "Brother Wang, what do you think about this?" ”

Old man Wang said: "I'll see Guo Dan first." ”

PS: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, take the high-speed rail back to Chenzhou from Shanghai, it takes more than seven hours, not counting the time to take the subway taxi, which is equivalent to taking a day's car, and I didn't sleep for a few hours last night, but I'm really tired, but with the obsession of constantly changing, I am quickly coding the word after eating, and now I am so sleepy that I can't modify it, there may be more typos, and I will change it a little tomorrow.

I'm so sorry.
