Chapter 3 Grain Shop
Cui Shaoqing was a little helpless about his new house.
Qin Rou said just now that his room had been cleaned up, but after he came in, he found that Qin Rou's so-called cleaning up was just adding a bed to the study.
This room is Qin Rou's study, and the books in it, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are still there, obviously the matter is too hasty, and it is too late to sort it out.
The study is antique and has a faint fragrance.
The woman was a little heavier.
Fortunately, Cui Shaoqing was not very particular, so he sorted it out casually and lay down to rest.
Early the next morning, after Cui Shaoqing got up, he was called by Qin Yu.
"As for me, I have always been a heavy promise, and I will not be bad at what I promised you, our Qin family is also a big family in Wannian County, not to mention the land, it has nothing to do with you, there are six shops, namely grain shops, inns, restaurants, cloth shops, medicine shops, rouge shops, each of these shops is not small, and the business is not bad, you want which one, pick it yourself."
Cui Shaoqing helped his family a lot, so Qin Yu was also generous, he didn't say that he would choose the worst business for Cui Shaoqing, but let him choose it himself, in doing so, he had a good conscience, if Cui Shaoqing was unlucky and chose a bad business, then he couldn't help it.
Cui Shaoqing didn't know much about these shops of the Qin family, and he didn't know which one was good, but he also had his own considerations, and said, "I'll choose the grain store." ”
Hearing Cui Shaoqing's choice of grain shop, Qin Yu did not hesitate at all, and nodded directly, their Qin family's grain shop is not a good business, but it is not bad, and there is a surplus of dozens of dollars per month.
These dozens of dollars can solve a family's food and clothing for a year, as long as Cui Shaoqing does not do very badly, he will reconcile with his daughter in the future, and Cui Shaoqing's life can go on, which can be regarded as his reward for Cui Shaoqing.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the shop and explain the matter by the way."
After speaking, Qin Yu took Cui Shaoqing to the shop.
The shops are on the most prosperous street in Wannian County, and the daily passenger flow is still considerable.
The shop is called Qin Ji Grain Shop, when they passed, a few coolies were helping to unload the grain, and a middle-aged man was settling accounts at the counter, and after seeing Qin Yu, he hurriedly trotted to him.
"Uncle, uncle, why are you here?"
The middle-aged man's name is Qin Tai, he is the shopkeeper of the grain store, and he is also a distant relative of Qin Yu's own family, he has followed Qin Yu for many years, and he has won Qin Yu's trust.
"Lao Tai, from today on, Shaoqing is the owner of this grain shop, I gave him this grain shop, you continue to work here, when Shaoqing has his own team, you want to retire, you can come to me, I will arrange a new place for you."
Hearing this, Qin Tai's face tightened slightly, and he subconsciously glanced at Cui Shaoqing, with some dislike and contempt in his eyes, in his opinion, Cui Shaoqing is a little white face who blows soft rice, he is a useless scholar, where do you know the truth of doing business?
Give him this grain shop, and he will not pay it away.
However, he had always trusted Qin Yu and never resisted Qin Yu's orders, so although he didn't like it in his heart, he still nodded and agreed.
After Qin Yu finished explaining, he left, how to operate here, how to make a profit or something, it has nothing to do with him, it all depends on Cui Shaoqing alone, even if he sells the grain shop, he will not say anything.
Qin Yu left, and Qin Tai's attitude towards Cui Shaoqing couldn't help but be a little worse.
"Uncle...... Just take a look, if there's anything you don't understand, you can tell me. ”
When Cui Shaoqing saw Qin Tai's expression, he already knew what he was thinking, but he didn't break it, he just smiled lightly and said, "I need to know how much grain there is in the grain store, the price of grain per stone, and how much money we have in our account that can be used, Shopkeeper Qin should be able to answer my questions, right?" ”
These situations are the first thing that an owner needs to know after accepting a shop, so after hearing this, Qin Tai didn't feel anything, and said: "This is natural, our grain shop is in the entire Wannian County, and it can be regarded as the top ten grain shops, this grain shop still has a lot of grain, there are almost two thousand stone of grain, and now the price of grain is one hundred yuan for one stone of grain, and the money that can be used in the account is almost five hundred yuan." ”
Hearing this, Cui Shaoqing nodded, Datang has almost 100 catties of grain for one stone, and 2,000 stones of grain, that is, 200,000 catties of grain.
This number is indeed not small in Wannian County under the rule of Chang'an City, but it is definitely not much, after all, it is next to Chang'an City, and there are many big grain merchants.
After understanding this, Cui Shaoqing smiled and said: "Shopkeeper Qin, take out all the money from our grain store, go and buy me grain, buy as much as you want, it's best to go to a place far away from Chang'an City to purchase, those places are far away from the capital, the price is not high, the price of a stone of grain, I am afraid that seventy or eighty wen can be taken down, here in Wannian County, find a few people to go to the major grain merchants, as much as possible." ”
After Cui Shaoqing finished speaking, Qin Tai didn't say anything, and he didn't even speak, he felt that Cui Shaoqing was simply crazy, now that the harvest has not been long ago, the price of grain is very stable, Chang'an City is rainy in autumn, and there is too much grain purchased, if it can't be sold, it will be smashed in their hands, and they will spend a lot of manpower and material resources just to save these grains.
This Cui Shaoqing has never done business at all, and he is still blindly directing here, how could he listen?
Seeing this situation, Cui Shaoqing's eyes condensed slightly, and said: "Shopkeeper Qin doesn't seem to be very convinced by my arrangement, but I am the owner here, I don't need you to be convinced, you just need to do what I say, whether it is a profit or a loss at that time, it is also my own business, and it has nothing to do with you, but if you refuse to listen to my arrangement, then I can only go and tell my father-in-law." ”
Sometimes, Cui Shaoqing doesn't want to move Qin Yu out, which makes him seem to be a little white face who eats soft rice, but in the eyes of an old man of the Qin family like Qin Tai, he only recognizes Qin Yu.
Sure enough, as soon as Cui Shaoqing said this, Qin Tai could only nod his head.
"Since the owner said so, then I'll just copy it."
After speaking, Qin Tai shook his head a little helplessly, obviously, he felt that Cui Shaoqing was blindly commanding, he couldn't do business, and he had to do it, and the final result would be a loss.
But Cui Shaoqing smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, and the reason why he did this was naturally due to his considerations.
If he expects it to be true, soon, the price of grain will rise.
