After eating, Zhao Yuan refused Wanfu's free order, and after paying for the meal, he asked the bolt to help carry the things he bought to the donkey cart, and then tied the black tiger to the back of the donkey cart, Meng Ying and the three of them sat in the carriage and drove the donkey cart towards Zhaojiazhuang.

In the afternoon, the people who came to catch the market went home one after another, and the villagers of Zhaojiazhuang who came to catch the market were not excluded, and they met the villagers of Zhaojiazhuang who went home along the way, Zhao Yuan greeted them with a smile, and the villagers of Zhaojiazhuang were curious about how Zhao Yuan drove a donkey cart, was it newly bought?

Zhao Yuan saw that the villagers of Zhaojiazhuang were carrying heavy things, and they all beckoned to put them on the donkey cart and help pull them back.

As soon as the New Year's fair passes, the atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger, everyone is preparing to eat, among which meat is the main dish, and the smell of meat permeates the entire Zhaojiazhuang, this year will be a fat year.

And at this time, the ten thousand families in the Chen (CD house) are another atmosphere. At the end of the year, it is the time for almost every business family to make a year summary.

Maybe there will be a certain amount of competition between the heirs of each big family, the head of the family of this generation is called Wan Shihao, with three sons and two daughters, the eldest of the three sons, Wan Yunquan, the second Wan Yunjun, the third Wan Yunhao, and the fourth sister Wan Yunqin and the younger sister Wan Yunshu.

In the feudal era, the status of women was always lower than that of men, and the competition of the next generation of the Wan family was mainly among the three brothers, each of whom was responsible for a stall of business in the Wan family, Wan Yunquan mainly managed the business of cloth and grain stores, Wan Yunjun was in charge of the restaurant, and Wan Yunhao had just taken over the family's miscellaneous items such as wood shops, pawnshops and other miscellaneous businesses.

The business that the three brothers are responsible for will affect whether they can inherit the position of patriarch in the future.

At this time, in the study room of the main house of the Wan family, Wan Shihao was listening to the achievements of the stewards under his three sons this year.

"Master, our cloth store has a total income of 80,000 yuan this year, six new stores have been opened, and the overall income has increased by 30% compared with last year, and it is expected that the income will reach 90,000 yuan next year." Wan Yunquan's chief steward who managed the distribution reported.

"The income of the grain bank is stable, this year's Shudi grain harvest, the grain price is also relatively low, the profit is not large, only 20,000 yuan, the same as last year, at present, several granaries have been full, only look at the market of the year." The steward in charge of the grain store said.

Wanjia attaches great importance to the grain store, and every time new grain comes down, regardless of the price of grain, it must purchase the warehouses set up in several places, so that they can cope with any situation.

"Yes, Dad, this year's cloth business is very good, our counties in Shudi, sell very well, but our cloth source is mainly from the south, the supply of goods has been restricted, otherwise the income should be more, and the competition with the Yuan family cloth shop is also very fierce, this year is our slight advantage." Wan Yunquan took over and said.

"Yes, Yunquan, you have been in charge of the cloth business for three years, and this year is your best year, haha." Wan Shihao nodded, stroked his beard and laughed.

"Yes, at the beginning, I had no clue at all, Dad, the main cloth business in our Shu is our family and the Yuan family, and the rest are homespun cloth made by some local farmers. Wan Yunquan said with a sigh.

"Yes, there is only such a big plate, when I was in charge of the cloth industry, I was constantly entangled with the Yuan family, and I also thought about developing in other places, but how easy is that, there is no Yuan family in the field, and there are others." Wan Shihao shook his head and said.

"I heard that the second brother, you have opened up the relationship with the field, can you help the eldest brother think of a way." Wan Yunquan said with a smile to Wan Yunjun on the side.

"No problem, big brother, but those people are doing the cloth business themselves, and we don't have any advantage compared to others." Wan Yunjun said with a smile.

"The price of our purchase should be the lowest, and we can directly grant it to them, and we can also make a lot of profits." Wan Yunquan shook his head and said.

"I'll ask in the next year, and we'll meet and talk about it then." Wan Yunjun thought about it and said, the owners behind the merchants who are now buying soap and other goods from him have not yet figured it out, and it is not easy to pack a ticket and say that it will work.

Wan Yunjun has changed a lot in the past six months, originally he was scolded by Wan Shihao because he had just taken over the restaurant not long ago, and he didn't sort out his clues, and he was in a bad mood at that time and ran to Danling, but he didn't expect to meet Zhao Yuan, after a few conversations, Wan Yunjun felt that he was too narrow before, and his vision improved a lot.

It turned out that the family inheritance that he was most looking forward to was no longer so important in the eyes of Wan Yunjun now, so Wan Yunquan said that he wanted to ask him for help, and agreed without thinking about it.

"Huh?" Wan Yunquan was a little surprised, feeling that his second brother had changed and became a little unrecognizable.

"Dad, I want to hand over the stall of Funing Building to the third brother, I'm busy with soap now, and I really can't manage it." Wan Yunjun said directly.

"What, that soap is so delicious?" Although during this time, I have also heard that his second son's new soap, soap and other things are very popular, but the specific profit is not clear, and now he heard that Wan Yunjun was going to give up the restaurant business, which accounted for a large part of Wanjia's business, Wan Shihao was still very surprised.

"It's okay, Yun Hao has taken over the business for a few months, but it's all some messy things, through the Funing Building all over Shudi, you can integrate all the businesses and manage them later." Wan Yunjun said with a smile, now he is not interested in fighting for the inheritance of ten thousand families, he has seen a good situation, where would he care about that pool of water.

"Second brother, it's better for you to manage the restaurant yourself, I have no experience, and besides, I still want to work hard in scientific research." Wan Yunhao shook his head and said.

"Yes, Yunjun, it was assigned to you in the first place, how can you say that you won't do it if you don't do it?" Wan Shihao also said.

"Dad, eldest brother, third brother, I have already thought about it, I want to separate it out, and the family will rely on the eldest brother and third brother in the future." Wan Yunjun gritted his teeth and said his thoughts thoroughly.

"What! Are you going to split up? I'm not dead yet! Wan Shihao suddenly stood up from his chair and said loudly.

"Yes, second brother, what are you talking about?"

"Second brother!"

"Dad, eldest brother, third brother, listen to me." Wan Yunjun took a deep breath and said in as calm a tone as possible.

"I'd like to see what kind of flower you can name?" Wan Shihao gasped and said.

"Dad, don't be angry. Yunjun, you don't have to say a word. Wan Yunquan helped Wan Shihao sit down and reprimanded.

"Let him speak! Go down first. Wan Shihao slapped the table and waved his hand to several stewards.

"Yes, sir."

"Dad, don't be angry, I say this for a reason, you don't know how profitable the soap stall is, in just a few months, it has earned more than 100,000 copper coins, and this is only a workshop built in Danling, and after the expansion, I don't know how many times it will be doubled, our thousands of families are a little too showy in Shudi, and we are about to have an accident in Shudi, which is very big, and it will change the world. Wan Yunjun said slowly.

"Where did you know that, we didn't hear anything about it." Wan Shihao's expression was also a little solemn.

"Where did I hear about it first, but there was a warning, from the beginning when Li Zhao surrendered and Shu will not be accepted, it has begun to appear, but now the situation outside is completely different......" Wan Yunjun slowly talked about the changes in various countries.

"It seems that it's a critical time, and I won't ask who the person who told you this, but it's a great talent, okay, I agree with you to divide it." Wan Shihao thought for a while and said.

"Daddy!"
