After Su Qianyi transported the money back to Su Weng, he did not follow in, but turned to a restaurant, the pine signboard said three big characters "Hongchen Building", it was that day Lu Jingyuan was sad and lost, he went upstairs, but saw that there were already two people waiting on the east seat, and they had a large plate of white-cut chicken, two large bowls of soup, three large pots of wine, and nothing else.

These two people, one has a clean face and no beard, seems to be a scholar, and the other has thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a serious expression, it is Duan Wenxing and Mr. Yuanshan who gathered in Lu Zai's mansion that night, it turns out that Lao Wang and Su Weng's big business is to talk with them, both of them came from afar, at first came to Yixing, for tea, and later found that the local brocade industry is also very developed, so it is because of this transaction.

This is a transaction of tens of thousands of guan, in which Duan Wenxing only plans to buy 10 brocades, 30 horses of silk cloth, and only invests 230 guan, while Yuanshan wants to empty the brocade of the weaving shop in Yixing City, and invests as much as an astonishing 10,000 guan, according to the calculation of 1 piece of silk produced in Yixing and 20 pieces of brocade per horse, it takes 500 pieces of brocade to meet his requirements.

It is necessary to know that brocade and gold are also made with heavy effort, and their price is like gold, so only the Venerable One can accept it.

For example, with only a dozen large and small machines in a weaving mill, more than 20 workers, even if they rush to weave day and night, it is impossible to complete this transaction, because any ordinary weaving workshop will not weave so much brocade, at most there are more than ten or twenty horses in stock as the treasure of the town store to display the weavers, among which the brocade workshop of Su Weng's family has the largest inventory, as many as 162 horses.

It is because only by monopolizing the inventory of the weaving mills in the city can the goods be delivered within the three-day time limit, but this invisibly increases the extremely high cost, and in the end, the profit part only sells its own inventory and the spot of weaving, and the rest is collected at the original price and sold at the original price.

Among them, the government also has to collect taxes, so calculated, among the 10,000 guan, about 3,000 guan can make a profit, which is very good.

Having said that, this is also a sure deal, and the amount is amazing, Su Weng is 100 years old, and he is also born with the first sight, this Fuso businessman Yuanshan is very large, rare in the world; Su Weng's first thought was naturally Su Yang'er, in the entire Yixing County, it is estimated that only her family can take out 6,000 pieces at one time to come out of Jia and buy 300 brocades to fill in the number.

This is the difference between Jia and business, before Su's father was alive, he also relied on noodles to eat, no face, he couldn't be a big Jia, Jia was very jealous, he couldn't contribute capital, 6000 yuan was invested, 7000 yuan was taken home, Lao Wang and Su's father did this kind of "speculative" investment business, if there was no face, no one would come to them to invest.

And now that the deal has actually been negotiated, Su Qianyi's purpose here is just to fulfill the friendship of the landlord.

Accompanying people to eat, drink and have fun this kind of thing, Su Qianyi naturally likes it the most, he is not in the academy on weekdays, or he goes to Washi to have fun with a group of fox friends and dogs, this Hongchen Building is actually not the best restaurant in Yixing, but it is the most lively, because it is very close to Washi, and Su Qianyi is also a regular customer here.

He knew that Su Weng and Uncle Wang both attached great importance to the distant mountains, so they dared to take their seats by arching their hands to them from afar.

After Su Qianyi sat down, he said with a smile: "It's late to be late, I neglected the two gentlemen, and I also invited Haihan." ”

Duan Wenxing has always liked to echo, and then said with a smile: "Little brother, you are late, Duan is hungry, so I asked for some wine and food first, and I also invited you Haihan." ”

Yuan Shan was silent, probably because of his lame Chinese, and only said: "He is hungry, he should eat." ”

Su Qianyi saw that there were few dishes on the table, so he hurriedly called the bartender, asked for steamed whitebait, vinegared white shrimp, drunken brook crab, and ordered a few side dishes, and came up with a few bowls of steamed rice.

The three of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, picked up their wine glasses, and after drinking for ten years, Su Qianyi asked: "Mr. Yuanshan, I heard that you are from Fusang country, can you tell me about the customs of your country for the later students?" ”

For the distant mountains, Su Qianyi is obviously also curious, thinking that he can carry tens of thousands of huge sums of money to come from the ocean as a business trip to an overseas island country, which must have its advantages, and Yixing does not have a port, he is going deep inland.

Yuanshan pondered for a while before saying: "There are seas, snow-capped mountains, few people, and wars." ”

Su Qianyi was slightly stunned, and thought, "Who is the island country going to war with?" ”

Duan Wenxing also asked, "Mr. Yuanshan, how does your country compare to my Dali?" ”

Yuan Shan frowned and said, "Dali, I haven't been there, I don't know." ”

Dali is located in southern Yunnan, although the distant mountains have been going to and from Han for many years, but if it was not for this encounter with Duan Wenxing, it is difficult to know that there is such a country as Dali in the world. Hearing this, Duan Wenxing couldn't help but be disappointed, although he had been with Yuanshan in the past two days, there was very little communication, and although Yuanshan had a few servants, he also saw something unusual.

At this time, Su Qianyi asked again: "Then Mr. Yuanshan, who did you sell it to when you bought so much brocade back?" ”

Yuan Shan didn't seem to know how to answer this question specifically, and after a while, he said: "Across the sea, there is danger, buy more, make more money, and sell slowly." ”

Although what he said was vague, Su Qianyi generally understood, the distant mountains are not as good as Duan Wenxing, you can go back and forth by land at any time, if you want to go to Fusang, you must take a boat, he has heard that going to sea is a very dangerous thing, even if the sturdy ship has the possibility of sinking.

With this, the three of them chatted about the sea for a while, although the distant mountains often did not reach the meaning, Su Qianyi listened to it with great pleasure, he was born in the mountain city, grew up in the mountain city, although the family provided him with education, but Su Weng did not allow him to seek fame.

It is also a strange thing to say, the world's scholars, studying hard in the cold window, are all for the sake of going to the official career, the court is Tian Shelang, and the twilight is in the Tianzi Hall, so as to glorify the ancestors, but Su Weng let him read, and read for the sake of reading.

Su Qianyi naturally didn't dare to disobey the lessons of his ancestors, but when he heard his classmates promoting their ambitions every day, he couldn't help but be envious.

He suddenly thought: "The sky and the earth are big, I really don't know why the ancestor asked me to guard this Yixing?" ”

The three of them ate and drank and chatted for half an hour, and when the food and wine were empty, Su Qianyi saw that it was still early, and he was not happy, so he wanted to leave the two of them to go around the city, he was a young man with a lot of fun, but the two of them in Yuanshan were tired and wanted to go back to their residence to rest.

Seeing this, Su Qianyi didn't want to keep them anymore, so he only felt very envious.

After they left, he secretly said to himself, "I don't know when I will be as free as these two gentlemen." ”

He was not satisfied, and drank three more glasses of wine to himself, when he heard the sound of footsteps on the stairs, and walked up to the two of them.

The one in front is very popular, he is a handsome man, but the second person is wearing a pale green robe, and he is actually a monk.

Seeing that Na Langjun looked around, as if looking for a secluded place, Su Qianyi hurriedly got up and shouted, "Hero, you are here too!" ”

"Is that you?" That Lang Jun looked at him when he heard the sound, and his eyes were suddenly full of playfulness.
