Du Qian, who is nine feet tall, is difficult to compare with him in height within a radius of 100 miles. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info he was also called by the township because he grew up with a pair of ape arms, and was called touching the sky by the township.

This is the first hero Wang Lun accepted in the World of Water Margin, but it is a pity that his skills are mediocre, but he is loyal because of his fellow villagers. In his early years, Du Qian was helpless because of the death of his parents, and often relied on Wang Lun for help, and later Du Qian went out for a few years because he didn't want to go. Two years ago, I was homesick and returned to Jeju.

For the heroes in the Water Margin world, Wang Lun still has a special plot in his heart, how can he not be as good as Chao Gai and Song Jiang. Since you have come to this world, you have to gather a few heroes for your own use no matter what.

Wang Lun also wanted Wang Ba's qi to leak from the bottom of his heart, Lin Chong, Wu Song, Shi Jin, Hu Sanniang and others bowed their heads. But in the three years of travel, Wang Lun struggled with livelihood problems and imperial examination problems, and he didn't have time to do this, after all, the Song Dynasty transportation was still stuck in the era when communication was basically relied on and basically relied on roaring. Some of these people have no way to find them, and some have families and businesses that cannot follow Wang Lun.

The heroes of Liangshan who are closest to Wang Lun in Jeju should be the holy hand scholar Xiao Rang and the iron arm Jin Dajian, but Jeju City has a population of tens of thousands, and blindly looking for someone without a way is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. Then there are several heroes in Yuncheng, such as the winged tiger Lei Heng, the beautiful bearded prince Zhu Tong, the Tota Heavenly King Chao Gai and so on. But these people have a lot to do with Hei Saburo, and Wang Lun can only stay away now.

Du Qian originally followed Wang Lun's instructions to keep an eye on the opening of the restaurant, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant who asked someone to find it was also found. I had already told Wang Lun to meet in the restaurant this morning, but after waiting for nearly an hour, Wang Lun didn't appear. The friend who was invited to be the shopkeeper is also well-known in the rivers and lakes, especially in Shandong. was afraid that people would be unhappy, so Du Qian sued him and went out to look for him, and it happened that Wang Lun and Lingguan came back.

"Brother Wang, you're back!" Du Qian was very happy to see Wang Lun coming back, and shouted. "The shopkeeper I asked someone to hire has already arrived, and he is drinking tea upstairs. Let's go, you go and meet. ”

Wang Lun was amused when he saw that Du Qian was anxious, but he knew that the shopkeeper he invited was to make money for himself, and he had Du Qian's face, so he couldn't be lazy. Hurriedly followed Du Qian to the second floor.

Coming up to the second floor, Du Qian led Wang Lun into a private room. The person who was drinking tea in the private room had already noticed that someone was coming in, and when he saw Wang Lun and the three of them coming in, he quickly got up and looked at Du Qian.

Du Qian immediately introduced to the new shopkeeper: "Brother Zhu, this is our owner, Wang Lun, a white-clothed showman. ”

After introducing Wang Lun, Du Qian introduced the visitor to Wang Lun. "This one is Brother Zhu Guizhu, the shopkeeper introduced by a friend."

"Oh, Zhu Gui! Isn't it the one who is called the Dry Land Suddenly! Hearing Du Qian's introduction, Wang Lun's heart moved, and he blurted out.

Hearing that Wang Lun opened his mouth and broke Zhu Gui's nickname, Du Qian was very surprised. Zhu Gui bowed his hand to Wang Lun and said very naturally: "I didn't expect that the villain's little name would also enter the ears of the king's officials, ashamed and ashamed!" ”

Zhu Gui has been wandering the rivers and lakes for many years, and people give him the nickname "Dry Land Sudden Law", which sounds like a bit of a foreigner, far less obvious than "Black Whirlwind" and "Xiao Li Guang".

It has two meanings: First, "Hulu" is the name of a crocodile in the Khitan language of the Song Dynasty. The crocodile is the overlord of the water, and it is not yet its turn on land. In the Water Margin, and Zhu Gui is like this, on the surface, he is a boss who usually runs a hotel, not a good man in the green forest, just like a crocodile that does not stay in the water, but in essence, he is Liang Shanbo's eyes and ears. Listen to the news and lead heroes from all walks of life up the mountain. This nickname is similar to his younger brother Zhu Fu's nickname "Smiling Tiger".

The second is that "Hulu" also refers to a highly venomous four-legged snake, which naturally likes to eat turtles, and burrows into it after eating an empty shell of its prey, pretending to be a turtle, and after someone picks it up without knowing it, it will issue a fatal blow, directly killing people. No matter how you interpret it, "Hulu" is a terrifying animal that is good at camouflage, which is very similar to the nature of Zhu Gui's work, and this nickname is quite appropriate for the identity of the character.

"Wherever, Brother Zhu's name has been famous for a long time. It's a great honor to see you today. I delayed some time for trivial matters, don't blame Brother Zhu. Inadvertently found Zhu Gui to be the shopkeeper of his restaurant, Wang Lun was overjoyed, after all, this is the second Liangshan hero he has come into contact with.

This Zhu Gui originally met Du Qian in the village of the big official of Cangzhou Chai Jinchai, and it happened that Wang Lun needed someone to help operate the new restaurant, so Du Qian asked someone to find Zhu Gui. Zhu Gui originally ran his own wine business, but his small profits were thin and he had been very bleak. Later, he stopped trading and invested in Chai Jinzhuang to live a mixed life and find another way out.

This time, Du Qian asked him to run the restaurant, which was exactly what Zhu Gui wanted, and Zhu Gui was very eager to come to Jeju after trekking through mountains and rivers. However, both he and Du Qian considered that Wang Lun was a seed of reading and showed off his talents, so they did not plan to tell Wang Lun their nickname. However, the two never expected that Wang Lun knew Zhu Gui's nickname. Not only Zhu Gui, there are one hundred and eight heroes in Liangshan, and there are a few people's nicknames that the current Wang Lun doesn't know.

Du Qian saw that Wang Lun did not reject people like Zhu Gui, and he let go of his worries at all. said to Wang Lun: "Brother Zhu and I met in the mansion of Chai Daguanren in Cangzhou, Hebei Province. ”

Hearing that Du Qian had moved to Chai Jin's village, Wang Lun was pleasantly surprised. I think it was in the village when Du Qian went out to wander around, and Du Qian had never mentioned it to Wang Lun before. But Wang Lun still wanted to be sure, so he asked: "But the descendants of the Later Zhou Miao, are you a great official who fights righteousness and squanders wealth and has the style of ancient celebrities?" ”

Seeing that Wang Lun also knew about Chai Daguan, Du Qian was not surprised, after all, Chai Daguan was famous. Du Qian nodded again and again, and replied: "It is the Chai Jinchai official nicknamed Little Whirlwind." ”

Chai Jin has funds and strength in the Water Margin world, and he is a potential stock, which may be the help Wang Lun needs in the future. Now that Du Qian and Zhu Gui can act as a bridge to establish a relationship with Chai Jin in the future, Wang Lun secretly thought in his heart that this relationship should be well maintained.

After getting to know each other with Zhu Gui, Wang Lun motioned for Zhu Gui to sit down and drink tea together. Du Qian also sat beside him, and the little spirit official stood respectfully behind Wang Lun.

"It is really beneficial for the big officials to choose this place to do business, and their vision is accurate." Before Zhu Gui came to the restaurant, he had seen the geographical environment around the restaurant, so he had such feelings.

The so-called geographical advantage is the convenient transportation and the concentration of residents is conducive to consumption, and it is convenient to buy when the products are abundant. Such places can often make the operation achieve twice the result with half the effort, therefore, these places must be places where business thrives and where businesses must compete.

At this time, Wang Lun had thousands of years of experience in later generations, although he had never opened a store or done business. But I've never eaten pork and I've seen pigs run, so finding a good spot is a piece of cake. So he smiled lightly and said modestly: "It's also a moment of luck to buy this place, hehe!" We have a small capital, of course, we have to plan carefully, and everything must be carefully calculated. ”

Zhu Gui felt that this matter was not simple, but he didn't know why he had just arrived, so it was not good to ask rashly. Du Qian over there knew it and slandered it in his heart. Others don't know about it, but I don't know yet.

Over there, Wang Lun didn't care about Zhu Gui's guess, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Zhu Gui, and poured a full cup himself. Shi Shiran opened his mouth and said: "Brother Zhu, although you and I are first acquaintances, they have also been famous for a long time, and there are also Chai Daguan and Du Qian. I am very trustworthy to come to me to be the shopkeeper, and I hope that Brother Zhu and I will not see each other, and if you have any requirements, just mention them. ”

Zhu Gui came to Jeju to defect to Wang Lun because he was forced to make a living, but he was also a thoughtful figure. Seeing that Wang Lun mentioned the topic, he discussed the issue of remuneration with him. After thinking about it for a while, he bowed his hand to Wang Lun and said calmly: "The villain has no career now, but he is not an idle person. Wang Daguan can afford to use the villain as the shopkeeper, and everything is according to the official's will. ”

Although Zhu Gui didn't say how much he wanted to pay for this, it was actually a high-level move to retreat. has the face of Chai Jin and Du Qian, as well as the ability to run his own business, and Wang Lun will not treat himself badly. Moreover, Zhu Gui has also seen many characters in the past few years, and he thinks that his eyesight is not bad, and Wang Lun is not a stingy person.

Over the years, Wang Lun has also saved some money through some strategies and means. Moreover, this restaurant is part of his long-term plan, coupled with Wang Lun's eagerness to recruit Zhu Gui. After thinking about it for a while, Wang Lun immediately said: "Brother Zhu is also a cheerful person, so let's be straightforward." Brother Zhu is the shopkeeper in my place, with five yuan per month, and one percent of the monthly dividend, how about it? “

As soon as he heard the monthly money, Zhu Gui only felt that his head was buzzing, as if a lot of silver money had fallen from the sky. Wuguan is five thousand dollars, which is equivalent to five taels of silver. Don't underestimate the five yuan of money, you must know that the monthly salary of a county magistrate is only fifteen yuan.

Comparing the price again, at this time, a bowl of tea in the teahouse in the city sells for a penny, and a piece of sugar in the inn is also a penny. Ten yuan can buy a bucket (ten liters) of coarse grain, and the average price of rice in the early harvest was about 500 yuan per stone, and now the most expensive is only around the same level, and it is even cheaper in the Huguang area of Jiangnan. The price of silk was between each horse and a half to a consistent price in the Northern Song Dynasty. You can buy a pig for a dozen yuan, and you can buy a cow for a hundred yuan.

After being shocked for a while, Zhu Gui reacted. nodded again and again, obviously very satisfied, not to mention that he still has dividends, and it is also a big income every month.

"Thank you to the king, the villain will live up to the trust." Wang Lun's handwriting is not small, and Zhu Gui hurriedly expressed his loyalty.
