Chapter 420: Qian Zhuang opens
Early the next morning, Qiu Cheng, Li Shun, Fu An, Ji Tong and others came to the Academy of Sciences early to wait in full clothes, and when Chen Xu came to the Academy of Sciences after eating steamed buns and soy milk slowly at home, a group of people had been waiting for half an hour!
"Meet Master Hou!" Qiu Cheng and the others hurriedly saluted Chen Xu together.
"Master Hou, everyone is here, how to arrange it?" Sun Shujiong asked.
"Go get busy, I'll take them to the newspaper!" After Chen Xu got out of the car, he took Qiu and a group of people to the newspaper next door to the Academy of Sciences, and after finding Chen Ping, the two sides introduced each other.
These people are all famous people from various counties, and two of them still know Chen Ping, they are old acquaintances in Daliang at the beginning, and they naturally met after a warm greeting before they slowly calmed down.
"From today onwards, even if the newspaper is officially established, Chen Ping is the general secretary of the newspaper, Fu An is the editor-in-chief, Qiu Cheng is the editor-in-charge of the news and current affairs and political news edition, Pang Que is the editor-in-charge of the farming world and animal husbandry edition, and Ji Tong is the editor-in-charge of the Gonzo and Story edition......"
A newspaper is divided into eight layouts according to Chen Xu's design, divided into two sheets of paper printing, and has just begun to experiment, so Chen Xu only arranged four editors, and the remaining seven people are all as stewards, so that they are responsible for collecting and sorting out all kinds of news and interesting news of the people everywhere, of course, as a steward Chen Xu still gave them enough rights, they can call three to five supernumerary reporters by themselves, and they have 5,000 yuan of activity funds every month, as for how they arrange Chen Xu, it doesn't matter, However, there are a certain amount of manuscript requirements every month, if the eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling are spent, the quantity and quality of the manuscript are ranked at the bottom for two consecutive months, and they will be punished, not to mention the deduction of wages and bonuses, the number of activity funds will be reduced in the third month, and the fourth month will be the penultimate to prepare the roll to cover and go home.
Therefore, after Chen Xu finished speaking, everyone began to wipe the cold sweat on their foreheads.
"Your office is in the general affairs room, Secretary Chen will arrange for you for a while, eat and drink temporarily in the canteen of the Academy of Sciences next door, when the time comes, there will be an entry and exit pass, Li Shun will stay, and the others will be scattered!"
"I'll retire!" Qiu Cheng, Fu An and others followed Chen Ping to the general affairs office to arrange their respective office space and work tasks, leaving Li Shun uneasy to stay.
"Li Shun, yesterday you said that you are not afraid of death, and you also want to be a mighty and unyielding husband, this Hou will arrange a special task for you, that is, to go to the northwest military camp, accompany the horse pawns commanded by General Meng Tian to go on the expedition, record what you have seen and heard in the conquest of Henan, and then let the post soldiers pass it back, when the time comes, we will be screened and edited and published in the newspaper, and your name will also be published, as long as people who have read the newspaper will remember your name, and the day of the victory of the army, It is also when you Li Shun is famous all over the world, do you dare to go? Chen Xu looked at Li Shun.
"Dare!" Li Shun gritted his teeth and nodded vigorously with a dry mouth.
"Okay, you go home first and prepare, an hour later, I will arrange for you to go to the northwest with the soldiers who escorted the horses and soldiers with the equipment of the military department, and then bring my warrant and letters, and after arriving at the barracks, General Meng will know at a glance, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, your only task is to record what you saw and heard on the battlefield as detailed as possible, especially the bravery of my Great Qin soldiers, and I want to write about how to sweep the Huns, so that people can watch the blood boiling!"
"Hou Ye rest assured, Shun will definitely live up to Hou Ye's expectations!" Li Shun nodded with a serious face.
"Well, go ahead, go back quickly!" Chen Xu waved his hand.
"Master Hou......" Li Shun looked at Chen Xu with a somewhat hesitant face.
"What else do you have to do?"
"Master Hou, the road in Jiuyuan County is far away and rugged, I am afraid it will take three or five months to return, I am not at ease with my mother and wife and children staying at home, and I also ask Lord Hou to help arrange someone to take care of one or two!"
"Don't worry, I will arrange this matter, and I promised yesterday to arrange a livelihood for your family, and I should be able to get it out today, and when the time comes, I will earn two or three hundred yuan a day to ensure that there is no problem with the family's livelihood, as for safety, I will greet the patrolling lieutenant forbidden army, so you can rest assured at home, as long as you complete this task well, I will reward you heavily when you come back in three or five months, and it will be enough for you to support seven or eight beautiful wives and concubines......"
"Really?" Li Shun's face flushed with excitement.
"Ben Hou never lies, but I tell you, there are no eyes on the battlefield, you just follow the army interview record, remember not to rush to kill with too much blood, otherwise you die on the battlefield, your wife and children will become someone else's wife and children, and when someone sleeps with your mother-in-law and beats your son, Ben Hou can't control it!"
Li Shun twitched and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and left.
Why is this Hou Ye talking so out of tune, but his words are not rough, and it is indeed too tangled.
……
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Several lit red firecrackers continued to explode in the crowd of onlookers, and with the green smoke of the explosion rising into the air, a group of men wearing sheepskin jackets wrapped in white turbans began to beat gongs and drums, and two colorful monsters began to jump back and forth in the open space with the rhythm of gongs and drums under the control of the helpers.
Today, the first day of the second lunar month, is the first day of Zhongchun, and it is also an auspicious day of the zodiac, but this auspicious day of the zodiac is calculated by Chen Xu himself, but he is a disciple of the immortal family, he said that if it is an auspicious day, it is naturally an auspicious day, not also.
And this auspicious day of the zodiac is also the day when Huaxia Qianzhuang opened in Xianyang.
Therefore, early in the morning, Chen Xu brought the gong and drum team and the lion dance team to congratulate.
Looking at the dense crowd watching the scene of the lion dance, the sound of cheers one after another, and smelling the smell of gunpowder after the explosion and burning, Chen Xu felt as if he had returned to more than 2,000 years later, as if he was standing at the shooting site of a costume movie.
These people around him are just extras receiving boxed lunches, and these scenes of beating gongs and encouraging lions to be lively and jubilant are just clips from a film and television drama.
"The people's girl Fan Caiying welcomes the arrival of the Marquis of Qinghe!"
Fan Caiying, who heard the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers, hurriedly walked out of the village with a few stewards of the money village to greet her.
"Miss Caiying doesn't need to be polite!" Chen Xu got down from the carriage and looked at the beautiful woman in front of him who was wearing a slim-fitting snow-white dress, her hair was neatly combed, and her lips were red and her teeth were slightly powdered, and she smiled with her hands, "Ben Hou came in a hurry, and he didn't bring any congratulatory gifts, only to do a ritual to exorcise evil spirits and arrange a beast dance to celebrate!" ”
"Hou Ye can come, the people are already grateful, there are many people outside and chaos, Hou Ye is invited inside!" Fan Caiying got up with a smile and led the way in front of the generous face.
"Don't worry, open the door, this first business is very important, I want to open the door today!" Chen Xu smiled and turned around to say hello, "The emperor is in charge, let people move all the money into the money bank and save it!" ”
"Yes, Master Hou!" The emperor who followed behind him waved his hand, and with a group of guards wearing Qingheyuan uniforms and wearing Qingheyuan badges, more than a dozen heavy boxes were carried down from several carriages behind.
"Get out of the way!" A group of guards from Qian Zhuang also quickly dispersed the crowd of onlookers, and soon cleared a way, countless pairs of eyes looked at these heavy big boxes, and they all talked about it.
"Wow, is this all money?"
"Nonsense, I heard that this Huaxia money bank is a place to deposit money and withdraw money, and these boxes must be full of money!"
"With so many large wooden boxes, how much money should be in them?"
"Judging from the weight, I am afraid that a box is no less than 20,000 yuan, and there are 12 ...... here A baker's dozen...... Fourteen...... Sixteen boxes of ...... in total"
"Hey~ Isn't that more than 300,000 dollars?" Several people next to him inhaled cool air at the same time.
"Well, these people are all people from Qinghe Garden, what kind of place is Qinghe Garden, ordinary people can't get in, the lowest table of dishes in the ordinary private rooms in Qinghe Hotel is 888 yuan, not including wine vinegar, plus wine vinegar will not be less than 1,500 yuan, I heard that the most expensive Diaoyutai Ziguang Pavilion and Yuyuan Pavilion and other four luxury private rooms, a single table of wine and food will not be less than 3,800 yuan, Qinghe Theater is also a crowd of audiences every day, a ticket is 50 yuan, and hundreds of people watch every day, and the income is tens of thousands of dollars, There are also Qinghe stores are all luxurious and extravagant, each of which is hundreds of thousands of dollars, and there are people who rush to buy them every day, so the daily money in Qinghe Park is a car bucket, and more than 300,000 dollars are counted! A well-informed person in the audience explained with disdain.
"Aren't you afraid that so much money will be stolen from someone when you put it in the bank?"
"Hmph, who dares to steal!" A middle-aged man in a delicate robe pouted, "I saw that Hou Ye and that beautiful woman didn't, this clear-eyed person knew at a glance that the relationship between the two was not ordinary, there was Qinghe Hou as a backer, who ate the bear's heart leopard dared to go in and steal, so many guards were tightly defended, not to mention, I heard that this Huaxia money village was opened by the Fan family, and several other partner businessmen are also famous in Daqin, the Shui family has not heard of it, it is the Shui Tea Shop that sells Ziyunxian tea, and the reputation is so big that it has a small share in the money village. There are these giants behind them, and now they are in addition to the three princes and nine kings...... Oh, no, except for the three provinces, six ministries and above the three grades, I'm afraid no one can shake the status of Huaxia Qianzhuang......"
"Yes, I also secretly heard that the largest shareholder of Huaxia Qian Zhuang is the ...... of Qinghe Hou."
"Really?" The few men in gorgeous clothes around them couldn't help but exclaim in low voices.
"Ladies and gentlemen, who are the shareholders?" An ordinary-dressed man next to him interjected.
"Huh~" Several people made disdainful sounds at the same time, and then gathered together to discuss each other in a low voice, not bothering to pay attention to this guy of different breeds.
"I heard about this from a friend in Nanyang, there should be no fake, I heard that before the Marquis of Qinghe became the marquis, he opened the first Qinghe store and Qinghe Theater in Wancheng, and on the day of the opening, the county guards of Wancheng County came to watch, after watching the play, the Marquis of Qinghe invited many wealthy businessmen in Nanyang together, and then said that it was the matter of opening a money bank, and my friend was also there at that time, but ...... Alas, it's a pity......" The speaker shook his head with regret.
"Brother, why do you sigh?"
"That day is the Nanyang Fan clan of the current patriarch Fan Fan Lao proposed the matter of the money bank, 100,000 yuan a share capital, the minimum subscription of one, my friend was afraid of this did not participate, and later heard that only seven or eight people participated in it, Fan and Qinghe Hou subscribed for most of the shares, and then in less than a year, Huaxia Qian Zhuang opened to seven of today's most prosperous cities, and now it is open to Xianyang, the daily money in and out is countless, just the handling fee is a large amount of income, This is completely a business of borrowing money to make money at empty glove, sitting at home and earning money, compared with the bitterness of me waiting for these carriages to go around, this is the real money, or I sigh, that is, I sigh that my friend's vision is too poor, and he missed such a good money-making career in vain. ”
"Can you still be a shareholder of Qianzhuang now?"
"You think too much, with Qinghehou as a backer and a giant businessman like Fan's to operate, what other shareholders do they need."
"With such an easy way to make a living, we can also find some people to open a money bank......"
"It's easier said than done, I'm afraid it's too late to act, Huaxia Qianzhuang has become a behemoth, controlling tens of millions of huge funds, it's too difficult to open another company for a piece of the pie, don't say backer, even if there are three princes and nine kings as backers, the world's businessmen are probably used to cooperating with Huaxia Qianzhuang, how easy is it to change the court, it is difficult...... It's hard to ......."
"Alas, forget it, don't think much about it, a certain day is to understand the money bank, to see if the money is deposited in the money bank, this is now spring, and it is the day of running around, there is such a convenient intermediary in the money bank, no longer have to run around with hundreds of pounds of coins, it is also a big heart disease."
"Yes, yes, I also saw the leaflet of Huaxia Qianzhuang to come, since Huaxia Qianzhuang is the property of Qinghehou, and there is Fan's business, I can rest assured, I will go back and prepare to transport the money......"
"Let's go to ......"
Seeing the guards of Qinghe Garden carrying more than ten boxes of money into the money village, there was also a lot of discussion in the crowd, and many of them in gorgeous robes and businessmen left after observing for a while, going home to prepare money to save money.
