Chapter 120: Establishment

The shop is next to Luoshui, but it is not close to Luoshui, and there is still a residential area and a wall between Luoshui.

However, the port is really good, the shop is located at the intersection of West Street in the square, this square is basically a large family, there is surplus money for consumption, as long as the wine and food provided are not particularly bad, develop repeat customers, just rely on the residents in the square, you can maintain the basic income.

And from the upper east gate and Anxi gate into the city of merchants, to go through Luoshui to the south market, the west market, will pass by Shanglin Fang, although the shop is opened in the wall, unlike the later generations of the shop is located on the main street, anyone passing by will see, but this era of the city pattern is like this, the shop can only be opened in the square, Yang Yun only seeks word of mouth to open, the past business travel brake into the square to consume.

The shop was rented, Yang Yun was not in a hurry to move in, just like in Chengdu, he first found someone to build the furniture at hand.

As a later generation, Yang Yun is not accustomed to the layout of the mat, high tables and low benches are the standard configuration of families in the Central Plains after the Song Dynasty, but in this era, it is a combination of low tables and floor mats, and it is very inconvenient to kneel and sit anywhere.

As for the bed, Yang Yun likes to sleep on a wooden bed, rather than sleeping directly on the mat like "tatami mats".

handed over the design drawings of the table, chair, bench and bed to the carpenter, and after reading it, the carpenter had a mocking smile on his face, and felt that Yang Yun was looking for trouble, but for the sake of the price, he was still happy to take the job.

Yang Yun did not directly open a brewing workshop in the backyard of the shop, he was going to find another place to make wine, this time he fully learned the lessons, directly brewed wine, purified one-stop, as for the backyard of the shop was transformed into a kitchen area, a total of five stoves were built, and the blacksmith shop built an iron pot of corresponding size.

After a lot of tossing, it took ten dollars, along with the furniture and store decoration.

From renting the yard to everything being arranged, four days have passed in a blink of an eye, and the Liu Mansion caravan has left Luoyang and headed for Chang'an.

Yang Yun did not tell Lei Jiao and Ruan Yue and others where he lived, he was worried that he would be found by Wang Yu, and at this time he still didn't know the situation in Huiye City, after all, Wang Yu was a feudal official, if he lost the battle, he used the power of the government to deal with himself in a hurry, although he had superpowers, but there would still be some trouble.

The shop is ready, the brewing workshop is also in a good location, the same is in Shanglin Fang, it is a private courtyard built on the wall of the fang, the front and back three entrances are also attached to the left and right side courtyards, because it is located in the deepest part of the lane, the house is also relatively dilapidated, and needs to be repaired again, so it is only rented with the usual money, and the rent can be paid every month in the future.

Yang Yun has been designed, the front yard is mainly used to stack grain and other raw materials, the middle yard is used to make wine and carry out fermentation, and the back yard purifies grain wine and distills high-grade liquor.

There are two courtyards on the left and right, one of which can house workers, and the other is stacked with wine jars, and at the same time, Yang Yun will use high wine and water and various spices here to blend various flavors of fine wine, reload the jars, and ship them directly from this side courtyard in the future.

While employing masons and carpenters to repair the courtyard and build various brewing and distillation facilities, Yang Yun went to the carpenter shop and blacksmith shop to customize various utensils, and tried to contact the third uncle Yang Xuanjian in his spare time.

Yang Yun thought clearly.

"It's definitely not okay to come and visit directly...... In this world, many people hate the poor and love the rich, and the third uncle must think that I came to Luoyang because I was desperate, so I despise it. ”

"I have to give this third uncle some gifts first, I don't need too much, I just need him to think that my nephew can live well without his support, and as for the previous situation of working under Wang Yu, you can also inform him, let him know that I have the ability to settle down and start a business."

For others, Yang Yun will try his best to hide his relationship with Wang Yu, the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu, but for Yang Xuanjian, not only does he not have to hide it, he feels that he can exaggerate it a little, so that Yang Xuanjian will be impressed by his nephew.

"I must let this third uncle treat me, otherwise as long as he sets the threshold to prevent me from seeing Yang Yuhuan, my plan to get ahead will have to be planned separately...... In addition, Yang Yuhuan's attitude as the ninth sister is also very crucial, before confirming my true strength, even if I know that my younger brother can make money to support the family, he will not give up Yang Xuanhuan's political resources and defect to me instead. ”

After Yang Yun thought everything through clearly and inquired about the location of Yang Xuanjun, the location of the Yamen where Shi Cao joined the army, he went to the market to buy some gifts and found someone to send them to Yang Xuanjian.

……

……

Yang Yun did not go to give the gift in person, but asked someone to do it for him, and the person he was looking for was Yazi He Wuliu.

He Wuliu didn't take Yang Yun seriously at first, and felt that Yang Yun was a small rich man who came from afar, unfamiliar with people and land, and not rich in experience, so he wanted to rub a layer of oil from Yang Yun.

But after a few days of contact, He Wuliu found that it was very difficult to knock Yang Yun's bamboo pole, Yang Yun did things without leakage, he had a well-organized plan, acted freely and calmly, and always looked confident. Before he figured out Yang Yun's details, he didn't dare to start.

However, Yang Yun also gave He Wuliu the opportunity to make money, let him run east and west to find craftsmen, as well as lease shops and private courtyards, so that he made a lot of money, this time he asked him to give gifts, and learned that Yang Yun's own uncle joined the army from Shicao of Qipin, and he was even more enthusiastic, and felt that he had climbed to a high branch.

He Wuliu has a certain amount of power on the black side, but he lacks the relationship between the government and the government...... He told Yang Yun before that he had a heel in the Caoyun Yamen, but in fact, he was just dealing with the government as a member of the Cao Gang, and the people he came into contact with were all officials who did not enter the stream, and others would not look down on him at all. He felt that he could make up for the lack of his network resources by settling with Yang Yun this time, and he had a little more respect for Yang Yun.

Yang Yun spent a total of fifteen times to buy gifts.

Among the gifts, there are not only Shu embroidery, Su embroidery and Shu brocade, cloud brocade and other satins, but also Qingcheng Mountain old bacon, dried longan, bamboo shoots and dried bamboo sun, yak beef jerky and other local products of Shu, and at the same time there is a box of about two copper coins, which are given to my sister Yang Yuhuan.

He asked He Wuliu to bring a letter, in which he said that he worshiped under the immortal sect in Shu and practiced Taoism, and then his teacher sent him to Shifang County to help the government break the Nanban, and get the degree of Hanzhou Xianggong, and then get the appreciation of Jiannan Jiedu Wang Yu to Chengdu to help make fire charms and achieve a great victory in Jinchuan......

Yang Yun originally wanted to exaggerate to write, but when he wrote down his experience, he found that even if he didn't need to exaggerate, it was enough to make Yang Xuanji's jaw drop.

In the letter, he stated that the purpose of coming to Luoyang was to take the lead in Luoyang and purchase industries under the orders of his master, and then he would participate in the spring of the coming year in Luoyang, that is, the annual rite examination of the regular science and science department.

At the end of the letter, Yang Yun thanked Yang Xuanjian for taking care of his ninth sister Yang Yuhuan over the past few years.

Because he went to Luoyang without relatives, he hoped to get Yang Xuanjian's support, and gave a thin gift as a filial piety to his elders, and also sent two rouge money to the ninth sister Yang Yuhuan, indicating that he would come to visit when he returned.

……

……

He Wuliu went for a long time, completed Yang Yun's explanation of giving gifts, and became more and more respectful to Yang Yun after he came back.

He Wuliu described the process of gift-giving.

Yang Xuanjian joined the army as a scholar of Henan Prefecture, and his official quality was not high, only from the seventh grade, but he was in charge of the eastern capital, and many houses, boats, carriages, and luans in the imperial city of Luoyang were supervised and manufactured by Yang Xuanjian, which belonged to a typical kind of official with small power and great power.

Yang Yun originally didn't know much about Yang Xuanjian's duties, but after He Wuliu talked about Yang Xuanjian's pomp, he had a further understanding in his heart.

At the beginning, He Wuliu sent the worship post in, no one paid attention to it in the yamen, and there were many people who came to the yamen every year to give gifts, and there were not a few people who gave gifts to Yang Xuanjian, and it was not a dignitary to come to give gifts, and no one received them was the norm.

He Wuliu waited for more than half an hour, and suddenly someone inside came out to pass a message to let him in, not only sent the gift into the yamen, but He Wuliu also saw Yang Xuanjun himself.

Yang Xuanjian learned that his brother's surviving son had arrived in the Eastern Capital, and he also sent someone to give gifts, and chose to meet He Wuliu in person, and sighed after reading the letter, which probably means that his brother has a successor, saying that he will bring Yang Yun's heart to the people in the house, especially the two pieces of money that Yang Yun gave to Yang Yuhuan will be handed over, and Yang Yun will be invited to come over the house for a family banquet on the next day.

"Yang Xiaoguan, you really have face, let the small one also be stained, the little one has never seen such a big official before." He Wuliu had a straight waist when he spoke, as if he felt that he was very beautiful when he entered the yamen and talked to the officials.

Yang Yun was a little surprised by Yang Xuanjian's enthusiastic attitude.

Yang Yunxin said: "Even if Yang Xuanqian cares about brotherhood, there is no reason to care so much about the children of the offended brother...... After seeing my letter, he showed such courtesy, which can only show that my ninth sister is really too good, maybe Yang Xuanzhen is ready to use Yang Yuhuan's talent and appearance to seek political interests, and he will show a good face to me if he loves the house and Wuxia. ”

"There is also the possibility that he didn't expect me to achieve so much in Shudi, not to mention learning from the immortals, and becoming a guest of the Jiannan Jiedu envoy."

Yang Yun was very satisfied with this contact, even exceeding his expectations.

Yang Yun rewarded He 56 and 20 yuan, and He Wuliu said that he didn't want anything, which was in stark contrast to his previous attitude of greed for money.

"Being able to do things for Yang Xiaoguan is a blessing that the villain has cultivated for several lifetimes, if you have any instructions in the future, just send someone to inform him, and the little one will be on call."

After He Wuliu finished speaking, he went straight out of the door, and really didn't want the reward given by Yang Yun.

Yang Yunxin said: "This guy is in his early twenties, not very old, but he has a lot of eyesight, and he knows that it is good to follow me to do things, and he will flow for a long time." ”

……

……

After getting in touch with Yang Xuanjian, Yang Yun did not rush to submit the worship post again and agreed on the time of the family banquet.

He had to hurry up and complete the preliminary preparations for the liquor store, and the workshop also needed to recruit workers, and this time with He Wuliu's strong help, things went very smoothly, and all the preparations were completed in only five days.

This time, Yang Yun spent about ten times in total, after all, the rent is paid monthly, and the repair of the house is only a repair, and it doesn't cost much to hire workers, and the materials for making wine are mainly grain and fermented koji, etc., and there is no need to purchase too much at one time.

Luoyang has a little advantage, that is, it is very close to the commodity society of later generations, as long as there is money here, you will be able to buy things, which is much better than Chengdu, there is still a barter situation in Chengdu, but in Luoyang basically will not involve the exchange between items, and the commodity is basically clearly marked.

There is even the concept of futures, you can order goods and materials that have not yet been produced after spending money, Luoyang land transportation and water transportation are very developed, and many goods from other places can be transported a few days after paying the order.

The brewing workshop has begun to brew low-alcohol grain wine, and the fermentation process in brewing is very troublesome, but there are regulations to copy, because winemaking is not a patent in this era, and even ordinary people know the winemaking process, and a little training can get started.

The whole brewing process took about 12 days, and in order to let the first batch of high-grade liquor come out in advance, Yang Yun went to the market to buy a batch of brewed liquor for distillation and purification.

Still using the old method in Chengdu, Yang Yun invited some women who did not know how to do it to work, and the three sisters An Lun, Yidan, and Yarou took turns to guide and supervise.

After half a month of preparation, more than 20 jars of high-height wine have been brewed, even after mud sealing, the courtyard is full of wine.

Fortunately, the courtyard is close to the wall, and outside the wall is the rushing Luoshui, there is no road for pedestrians to walk, but they are not afraid of being found by people following the smell.

Yang Yun asked He Wuliu to invite the cook and his men back to prepare to open on a later date.

"Before I went to meet Yang Xuanhuan, the wine shop had already opened, indicating that I had established a business in Luoyang, which was the premise for Yang Xuanjian to agree that I was familiar with Yang Yuhuan...... When Yang Yuhuan saw that I had my own property in Luoyang, he would also let down all his vigilance and recognize me as a younger brother. ”

"I want to give them the impression that I am already a successful person, only in this way can I get close to Yang Yuhuan and gain Yang Yuhuan's trust, so that she can gladly accept my funding and follow my arrangement."
