PS: The first half of the section has some important foreshadowing after fast-forwarding, for the sake of farming later, I wrote very coolly, but some people may find it boring, you can skip it...... Ah,Actually, I really don't want to add this kind of PS.,But after all, it's just starting to write...... Well, speaking of which, at first some people thought that this book was a house fighting text, then a talented man and a good man, then a business war text, then a martial arts article, and then an officialdom article, in short, I still transitioned here, story and life, that's it. The next rhythm,It should be the plot of slowly infiltrating part of the farming in the love drama of life.,I really like the feeling of the little hamster checking his winter fruits little by little.,Don't worry.,I'll take my time.,Life drama is still the mainstream.,You can ^_^ keep up.

Oh, by the way, it's almost the end of the month, ask for some monthly pass support!

Since the opening of the two stores in the capital, by the middle of July of this year, the entire physical store of "Zhu Kee" has opened five stores in the vicinity of Bianliang. For many merchants doing business in the capital, this is an unattainable expansion speed, but as far as Ning Yi's consciousness is concerned, the expansion in the first half a year is quite stable, and it is not how fast it is.

In a certain direction, Ning Yi is really controlling the main force of expansion, not in the five physical stores in Zhuji, but in the "salesmen" who are constantly sent to various states and counties. Starting from Ning Yi taking five disciples to Muyuan County in February, and then Ning Yi went to Jiangning, and then returned to the capital from Jiangning, the entire layout is constantly developing and operating.

In the first month or so, the salesmen did not produce much significant results. At most, they figured out their way around. During Ning Yi's time in Jiangning, he absorbed more than ten young people who were related to the Su family for training, and then led Shangjing. For Su Tan'er, she didn't see very clearly what this husband was doing, but after returning to Beijing, everything began to swell rapidly.

In the R&D compound located outside Bianliang City, some of the small commodities that Ning Yi had guided before had matured. Perfumes, soaps, mosquito coils, toilet water and other items began to appear one after another on the goods counter of Zhuji, and the "salesmen" who were only mediocre at the beginning suddenly made a large number of gains in just ten days, because Ning Yi began to summarize a large amount of information such as the demand for goods and the policy preferences of the imperial court. For the use of his subordinates.

The Wu Dynasty in these years. Although it is said that it was the most economically developed time, generally speaking, it was still an agrarian society with closed information. Except for some big cities, the gentry of big families occupy a large number of information resources, under them. In many small and medium-sized areas, landlords' sensitivity to information has declined significantly. Let's say a family has harvested grain. It's just hoarding at home, even if you want to sell, you can't find a reliable buyer. One family planted cotton. For a long time for a merchant to buy, the price basically unchanged, one day the merchant goes bankrupt or dies, the cotton does not know who to sell to. There are also times when two companies who do business in a small place negotiate the price, and one party does not know the outside market price, or shouts too high, or shouts too low, and finally finds that they are two or loses.

The so-called regulating role of the market economy in later generations should be established in the case of a large number of comparison of buying and selling intentions. The huge gap between the rich and the poor in society as a whole also stems from this. Of course, the idea of the official standard is actually a kind of disguised buffer for the huge gap between the rich and the poor, and the money has reached a certain level, and the meaning is not much different after all, and the landlord of a small place, who saves for a lifetime, may have accumulated a lot of savings, but the enjoyment and psychological superiority he gets are often not as much as cultivating a showman.

Ning Yi initially trained the salesmen, focusing on how to make their speech look lofty, and at this time added richer content. What goods are lacking in the capital recently, what are the prices nearby, which families are collecting, if you want to sell something, where is the most affordable, how to transport things, how to collect taxes at nearby checkpoints, how to open up joints, which officials are honest, and which ones ask for money...... And so on and so forth.

Ning Yi sent this information in a targeted manner, and the people under his command didn't need to say too much, revealing a little bit about the shell, which could touch the hearts of some rich people in the countryside - they wouldn't believe it immediately, but after listening to this kind of thing, it was always proper to buy one or two bottles of perfume that seemed to be beautifully packaged, and make two sets of clothes from the Su family's cloth shop.

It was only in May that the salesmen who were placed outside made their first intermediary business - one of the salesmen set a deal on a merchant and a landlord not far away. However, the first time he did this kind of thing, he didn't charge a commission or anything, but the two bought him a lot of goods. Ning Yi gave him a reward for this.

At this time, in big cities such as Bianliang and Jiangning, there are actually people who do similar intermediary business, most of them are idle people with many friends, helping to get a commission, but they are not professional after all. And Ning Yi, from the beginning, part of his thoughts were aimed at this.

In the past few months, some other things have also expanded and developed with Zhuji. They complement each other, stretching like a spider's web.

First, the elm cannon that emerged near Sipinggang in February had been transferred by Ning Yi to Qin Siyuan. Although the safety performance is still worrying, manual production, operation, and launch require experience and training, and the cost performance is not high, but it can already be regarded as a good weapon, and it is okay to at least play the role of a surprise soldier on the battle array. Qin Siyuan transferred this firearm to the Military Construction Bureau to continue research, and at the same time, Ning Yi also retained the legitimacy of privately improving the elm cannon.

Second, while operating the outgoing team, the business of Zhuji in the capital is also expanding at an astonishing speed. For Ning Yi, the reason why it can be regarded as a steady development is because there are many shadows of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, Qin Siyuan, Yao Zunian, Ji Kun and others. In this society, where relationships determine most things, these people have more or less helped, plus the appearance of strange items such as coal stoves and perfumes, plus the introduction of beautifully packaged juices, canned quail eggs and other things on the table, plus Ning Yi's packaging methods, poetry, and fame. If the business will not do well and the fame is not big enough, then Ning Yi basically doesn't have to do things.

Third, in the process of the expansion of Zhuji, some of the remaining bandits of Liangshan who were originally imprisoned near Dulonggang had completed their "training" at this time, and after screening, they were incorporated into the entire system as employees of Zhuji. There is no lack of martial arts and ruthlessness in these people, but at this time, they have completely changed from when they were captured last year. They are mostly quiet, modest, and courteous. Extremely concerned about systems and rules, some people even have an ascetic-like atmosphere.

When Ning Yi decided to use them, he actually took some precautions. During daily breaks, they are still kept together as a group. Or exercise or arrange someone to give them some lessons. He will also organize people to help others. Do good deeds and supervise each other.

There are five bamboo records inside and outside Bianliang, and these people arranged a part of it. A part of it was arranged in the compound outside the city. Some of the people who were released were also arranged, and when they were about to drag the bamboo goods around in a horse-drawn cart, the members would usually be a salesman, a man from the Su family's cloth shop, a storyteller, a man who sold odds and ends to the poor, and two bodyguards.

The salesmen were mainly responsible for visiting the wealthy households, and the cloth shop men would measure the shape of the other party when they were ready to sell clothes. The storyteller tells stories in the village to attract poor families and children, and the grocers sell a little cheap food, or cheap cloth, needlework and other things that each family needs, and if someone needs it, flower water, mosquito coils and other things are naturally sold, and the poor cannot afford to buy very expensive things, if they buy perfume and soap, most of them are for the purpose of getting married. This combination then became standard.

Fourth, when the disaster situation in the north and south began to become urgent, Ning Yi controlled the expansion of Zhuji while participating in the disaster relief planning of the Secret Investigation Division. Although it was busy, basically, there was nothing wrong on both sides.

As far as the overall situation is concerned, if it weren't for Ning Yi's contribution to the elm cannon and his ability to participate in disaster relief planning and personnel deployment in an orderly manner, Qin Siyuan and the others might not have lent their influence to Ning Yi so simply. On Ning Yi's side, at least in Su Tan'er's opinion, his husband was like running on a constantly taut iron rope. As a businessman, the rapid expansion of Takeki is simply a pleasure to the eye, but on the other hand, this rapid expansion that stretches directly to the limit is often worrying.

The third, fourth, and fifth stores of Zhuji had actually begun to be planned before Ning Yi returned to Bianliang. With the start of the renovation of the third house, the results of the compound outside the city have been launched, and several special small workshops have also taken shape rapidly. At the same time, Ning Yi summarized all kinds of information, instructed his subordinates in the field to do things, and quickly released the second batch of salesmen, and at the same time entered the third and fourth batches of training.

For a few months, Ning Yi looked like a machine that inducted and processed information without limits, and Su Tan'er didn't understand what her husband was doing, and she still looked like she was at ease.

The business that is blooming everywhere is the first to absorb huge funds. But just when the money invested by Ning Yi was about to bottom out, the trend of capital recovery had become larger, and the income returned was quickly invested in the expanded business, and within a few months, everything turned into a whirlpool of crazy expansion.

Due to the unstable foundation, the original manpower reserves have begun to bottom out, and the recruitment and joining of newcomers will often lead to the aggravation of the system. But it seems that at least this month, Ning Yi has become more and more relaxed, and at hand, it seems that he is enjoying the pleasure of walking a tightrope, and he has no intention of stopping at all.

The rapid development of Zhuji is not much about these things. As far as he is concerned, what he can know is some rumors that have flowed out of the Zhuji cart, including some news that has been circulated in the green forest after inquiry. The conflict with Liangshan, the determination to kill the people of Liangshan, the name of the demon, etc., this afternoon, he met Ning Yi under the guidance of the shopkeeper of Zhuji, and when he walked into the courtyard of the Ning family, some of the scenes he saw made him feel more worried.

Of course, when catching up with Ning Yi, Li Pin still put away these thoughts in his heart, smiled and talked to Ning Yi about what he had seen and heard about being an official for more than two years, and asked about the conflict between the Su family and Liangshan. Ning Yi admired Li Pin, and this meeting was a pleasure, and soon, the name of a person Li Pin mentioned caught his attention.

“…… When I went to Nanhewei County, I had a relationship with Zong Rulin. Later, he benefited greatly from the exchange of letters...... The knowledge and open-mindedness of the old man have made my generation unreachable, but unfortunately, he retired at the end of last year and returned to his hometown...... It's also offended people, at that time, I'm afraid I was a little disheartened......"

Zong Rulin...... Lord Zongzezong? ”

"Well, Liheng has also heard his name, right?"

"I've heard people mention it, but it's not clear."

"It's okay if you don't know." Li Pin shook his head, "It's always some mess......"

Maybe he felt that this matter had little to do with Ning Yi. Li Pin didn't say anything more. After dinner together. Ning Yi sent Li Pin out of the house, and when he walked under the eaves, Li Pin sighed: "Liheng, do you know the way...... The people are not having a good time. ”

He has been an official for nearly three years. A sigh at this point. Quite heavy. Ning Yi listened. I didn't think much of it, but after a moment, I smiled and nodded. Soon. The two made an appointment to meet at the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow, and Li Pin led the servant and the master to leave.

All the way back to Zhuji's guest room, the master named Chen Juan, who followed him, stayed for the time being and chatted with Li Pin for a while. Chen Juan was curious, and Li Pin talked more or less about what happened when Jiang Ning and Ning Yi met, and after a while, he also sighed.

“…… At that time, I admired Li Heng's knowledge and insight, although he was a little off-track, but my generation of scholars can always keep the middle and hold the right...... But I haven't seen him for three years, but the path he traveled is far from what I expected...... Alas, maybe I thought it was wrong, but what I saw today ......"

When he said this, he was a little embarrassed and didn't go on. Master Chen said: "According to what I saw today, whether it is this bamboo record or Ning Mansion, it seems that it is indeed a bit of a wealthy family...... After all, he has the help of the Prime Minister's Mansion behind him, and he also has a lot of house slaves......"

"Actually, Shangjia is a small way after all, he originally entered the family of Shangjia, but I don't think he will touch this. But I didn't expect it, it was still like this...... Liang Shan's disputes in the rivers and lakes, although he avenged his family, there was nothing to say, but later it came to that point, and his involvement with these underworlds was afraid that it was getting deeper and deeper. Brother Chen is right, the way of businessman, chasing false profits, climbing officialdom, forming underworlds, and accumulating private slaves, these are all done by wealthy families after all, and I am not surprised that I can do these things with the ability of Liheng. But it is rumored that Zhuji is still secretly collecting grain...... Recently, such natural and man-made disasters, he still took the opportunity to do this kind of thing, I really don't understand......"

Master Chen thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but speak: "Owner, such a thing...... It's better to stay out of it. ”

"How can it be?" Li Pin smiled and shook his head, "Maybe I've seen it wrong, these days, I have to see it more clearly." As a gentleman of my generation, what I seek is to be fair and fair, and have a clear conscience. If he really goes astray, I will certainly admonish him one or two times, so that he can learn from perseverance, and I really should not delay in such things...... Brother Chen, you know my temperament, needless to say, even if this matter offends people, I should do it. ”

Ning Yi has a lot of relationship with Qin Siyuan, he can really lack it, Ning Yi is helping, if this matter really offends him, it is really difficult to say whether there will be stumbles in the officialdom. But as a friend, Li Pin still decided to do his best to persuade - of course, he also reserved room for his mistake and decided to take a look in these days.

The next day, Li Pin first went to the Ministry of Officials to report, and then went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit Qin Siyuan, and he was still thinking about this matter in his heart. However, a piece of news not long after somewhat diluted the mood brought about by this incident. It was not long after Ning Yi came over, Li Pin met Qin Siyuan with him, and only after saying a few words, the old man named Yao Zunian came in with a smile, holding a piece of information in his hand, and said excitedly: "Good news! Xiangye! Liheng! Great news, ha......ha

Soon after, the entire Xiangfu, the entire Bianliang City, and even the entire Wu Dynasty shared the good news from the north. Relatively speaking, everything else seems insignificant.

To the north, Pharmacist Guo fought with Xiao Gan, and there was a result. Guo Yaoshi, who planned and then moved, defeated Xiao Gan in the waist shop, and then ran all the way, taking advantage of the victory to pursue Lu Longling, killing and injuring more than half of the army of the Great Xi State. This chase lasted for several days, and Xiao Gan intercepted Guo Yaoshi's subordinates while fleeing, and his head was under the sword. Another important general fell on the stage of this era, and Guo Yaoshi finally completed a real victory in the Northern Expedition of the Wu Dynasty.

When the news came, Xiao Gan's head was already on his way to the capital, and the Chang Shengjun was still rushing all the way to expand the results.

The world is shaking! (To be continued......)
