Chapter 194: Industry

The so-called "three wives and four concubines" of the ancients refer to one wife, two equal wives, and four concubines.

Li Yu, the princess of Runan, is Zhang Yunwen's wife, and Zhirou can only become a flat wife.

After that night, the structure of the entire Zhang Yunwen Mansion was completed. The two wives are in charge of daily affairs, and Zhang Yunwen is outside.

Although he said so, Zhang Yunwen sadly found that it seemed that he was the only one who was working hard outside, and the two of them seemed to have nothing to do. In addition to taking care of the maids and the trivial affairs in the house every day, they get together at home to play mahjong or go out to visit close friends. It's a boring day like this.

Finally, on October 1, the two officially raised this issue with Zhang Yunwen.

"Uh, what's this......" Hearing this question, Zhang Yunwen couldn't help touching his chin and muttered, "Men killing time is nothing more than eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, I'm afraid you can't!" Otherwise, if you go out with your money, whether you open a shop or buy a field, after a year, let's see who makes more money, what do you think? ”

The eyes of the two lit up at the same time, and Zhi Rou said first: "It's been so long since I came to Datang, and I haven't been in the field again!" Okay, the concubine will choose the field! I'm going to make a beautiful farm! ”

Li Yu also smiled and said, "Then the concubine will go to business!" I have long heard that Cheng Qian and Li Tai are doing business and making a lot of money, so the concubine also came to try! ”

Zhang Yunwen saw the two of them say this, and he was also relieved: "Since you have already chosen, we will start next month, and each person will use 100,000 yuan as the starting capital, as for the problem of hiring people, I believe you will solve it yourself!" Oh, by the way, don't get too tired, hire a few more people, and leave it to them to do the work! ”

"Got it, got it!" Zhi Rou waved her hand and motioned for Zhang Yunwen to go aside. The latter looked at the two women who were trapped in fantasy depressedly, and couldn't help but shake their heads lightly and walked out of the door.

On the second day, after Zhang Yunwen went out to the court, Li Yu and Zhirou looked at each other and smiled, and then each went out with a group of people. The people and horses they brought were all Zhang Yunwen who asked for someone from Lin Ran.

Today, Lin Ran's Zuiyun Building is still open, but it has been separated from the investigation institute, and it is run by a group of people who came out of Lin Ran's **.

When Zhang Yunwen asked Lin Ran about his needs, Lin Ran did not hesitate to give Zhang Yunwen four young men who were about twenty years old and two old men with gray hair. Those four young people were cultivated by Lin Ran, and they were going to make them the shopkeepers of the restaurant in the future. And the two old men are the two big shopkeepers who have already died old. These six people happened to be divided into three by Li Yu and Zhi Rou.

Li Yu sat in the carriage, and the three shopkeepers and guards rode on horses, and walked around Chang'an City for a day, and did not return to the mansion until it was almost dark. The same was true of Zhirou, who rode a horse, accompanied by three shopkeepers and guards, and spent a day wandering around the fields near Chang'an.

When they returned home, Zhang Yunwen was already sitting at the dinner table waiting for them.

"I'm back, let's eat!" Zhang Yunwen said expressionlessly.

The two girls cautiously glanced at Zhang Yunwen, and then looked at each other, and they both saw a faint panic in each other's eyes. Sit down gently, then take small bites of your meal.

Suddenly, there was silence at the dinner table.

After eating, Zhang Yunwen coughed lightly, and the two daughters immediately looked at him in unison.

"Tell me, where have you been today?" Although Zhang Yunwen smiled secretly in his heart, he said with a strained face.

After the two girls finished talking about what they had done today, Zhang Yunwen suddenly laughed: "Not bad, it's still quite positive!" ”

Seeing Zhang Yunwen's smile, the second daughter breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Yunwen said again: "However, since you are the behind-the-scenes owner, you will directly let your subordinates choose several positions, and then you will decide, why run like this for a day!" Especially you, Yu'er, your body is not very good, but it can't go on like this! ”

Hearing this, the second daughter blushed and nodded.

That night, on a bed, Li Yu was embraced by Zhang Yunwen and gently stroked with one hand.

"Xianggong, what kind of business do you say is the most profitable?" Li Yu shook Zhang Yunwen coquettishly, and asked softly.

"Well, of course, it's the most profitable business that people don't have!" Zhang Yunwen thought for a moment and said.

Li Yu suddenly said coquettishly: "Then what is something that people don't have?" ”

"Uh, that's a bit complicated, let me think about it!" Zhang Yunwen narrowed his eyes and made a thinking motion.

Li Yu looked at Zhang Yunwen with a pair of dark eyes without blinking. A moment later, a slight snoring sound came from Zhang Yunwen's mouth and nose.

Li Yu suddenly snorted a little angrily, turned around, and ignored Zhang Yunwen.

On the second day, when the three of them gathered in the dining room to eat again, Zhang Yunwen grinned at Li Yu and said, "Yu'er, didn't you ask me what is the most profitable thing last night?" ”

Hearing this, Li Yu remembered Zhang Yunwen's appearance of snoring slightly last night, and suddenly snorted lightly.

Zhang Yunwen said disapprerovingly: "I think that the most profitable thing is nothing more than firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea and other industries that are closely related to people's lives." And these industries can be divided into four categories: clothing, food, housing and transportation. As long as you can hold on to an industry, then the wealth will be rolling! ”

As soon as these words fell, Li Yu suddenly nodded thoughtfully.

Zhirou on the side gave Zhang Yunwen a chopstick dish, and then said softly: "Xianggong, since you told Sister Yu some secrets, let's also talk to the concubine!" ”

Zhang Yunwen said with a smile: "Sister Zhirou, you don't have any secret to opening a farm, as long as you find more old farmers and cultivate intensively!" By the time the harvest arrives in the fall, it will naturally bear fruit! ”

The two daughters bowed slightly at the same time.

Finally, after half a month of screening, Li Yu decided to open a ready-to-wear store. And the location of the store did not fall in the West Market, but in Chongrenfang. There and the nearby Lifang were inhabited by many powerful people. Li Yu just wanted to sell this ready-to-wear to those noble ladies. But later, when Zhang Yunwen entered the ready-to-wear store, he suddenly found that the clothes hanging outside as samples were just the right size for Li Yu.

Zhirou, on the other hand, bought a large area of fertile land nearly 30 miles south of Chang'an and gave it to nearby farmers to cultivate.

Seeing that the industry set up by the second daughter is gradually on the right track, and it is not as leisurely as before, Zhang Yunwen is still very happy.

However, in October of the second year of Zhenguan, Du Yan, the imperial historian, was seriously ill, although after the treatment of several Taoist medical masters such as Sun Simiao, the situation improved, but still lingered on the sickbed.

Du Yan's serious illness had no effect on Zhang Yunwen, but it was different for Li Shimin. Just when Du Yan was seriously ill and could not be a director, Pei Lin requested that a Yushi Zhongcheng of the Yushitai be promoted to the imperial historian, and a superintendent of the imperial history to be promoted to the imperial historian. Among them, the superintendent of the imperial history is the one who impeached Zhang Yunwen in the first place.

Li Shimin thought for a moment with a calm face and agreed to Pei Lian's suggestion.

By the end of November, the city of Chang'an was already falling with snowflakes.

Unconsciously, the second year of Zhenguan is about to pass.

Zhang Yunwen braved the snowflakes to come to the outside of the investigation institute, pushed open the door, and a cold wind howled, carrying the snowflakes into the house.

"Your Excellency has come just in time! Xiaguan has a piece of information here! It was Chen Quankang who spoke. I saw that he was holding a piece of information in his hand, and walked towards Zhang Yunwen with a serious face.

Now that he has been trained by Hu Quan, he seems more calm.

Zhang Yunwen took the information, glanced at it roughly, and then showed joy. He patted Chen Quankang on the shoulder: "Old Chen, thank you for your hard work!" ”

Then he walked quickly out of the gate of the investigation institute and walked in the direction of the palace.

On the snow behind him, a clear line of footprints appeared.
