In a secluded place in the backyard of the store, under a jujube tree that has lost its leaves, three shopkeepers stand in a circle.

Li Yuchun looked at Zhou Fengji and said, "Old Zhou, what the hell, do you have a charter?" ”

Zhou Fengji said: "I still say this, this thing can't be done for the time being, you can do it yourself, I don't mix." ”

Li Yuchun sneered: "I didn't expect that your old Zhou is loyal, but I am a wicked person." In fact, according to my approach, it is good for the big 'grandma' and for Brother Han. ”

"The proprietor is the proprietor," Zhou Fengji just shook his head and said, "Everyone has their own ambitions, and it is useless to talk more." He glanced at Liang Hong, who had been smiling and silent, and left with his hands behind his back.

Li Yuchun snorted coldly, also glanced at Liang Hong, and said, "Do as I say." ”

"Well," Liang Hong said with a smile: "You have the final say in everything." ”

Zhang Han has only been sitting in the store for five or six days, and the general situation has been basically figured out.

In terms of operation, Zhang Han's grandfather Zhang Yun is a talented, the principal of a few thousand taels is nothing here in Xinpingbao, the horse market is divided into official and private markets, and it is also divided into large cities and small markets, and the transaction volume of a large market is as much as 100,000 taels.

The big market is at the national level, and once a year, the small market that opens once a month is a paradise for businessmen.

All kinds of materials, camellia grain cloth is the most important, the merchant records at that time often mention how poor the tartars were, a few buckets of rice for a sheep, a stone and two stones of grain for a horse, the herdsmen as long as they have on hand, will take out the trade, because there is no clear understanding of the value of the goods, in the early years of the market, the merchants of the Ming Dynasty slaughtered these Tartars fiercely.

In addition to the main goods, all kinds of items Mongolians want, even the fresh vegetables produced that year, all kinds of cured meat, pickled vegetables, everything produced in the Ming Dynasty, those herdsmen on the grassland do not want.

A jar of sauerkraut can change a horse, can you believe it?

At that time, the border market trade was like the gold rush in the western United States, and the first pot of gold was easiest for the bold tide to dig.

Mr. Zhang Yun is one of them, who came out of his hometown in Puzhou that year, brought a few thousand silver and a few guys, opened and Yusheng in North Street, and earned 40,000 taels of silver in a few decades.

In the ears of later generations, the net worth of tens of thousands of silver seems to be nothing, and there are indeed many wealthy families with millions or even millions, but that is only a few, in the early years of Wanli, the net worth of tens of thousands of silver is about the same as that of multimillionaires in later generations.

Three taels of silver for a cow, seven taels of silver for a horse, an acre of paddy field is only five or six taels of silver, and three taels of silver for dry land is not worth it.

What is the concept of tens of thousands of taels?

When I went to the restaurant, I ate the best eight treasures every day, and I could eat it for decades.

The old lady seized the opportunity and increased her net worth by more than ten times, which is a remarkable achievement. When it comes to Zhang Han's father Zhang Cheng's generation, he can only keep it, there are more and more predators in Xinpingbao, and Yusheng is becoming more and more inconspicuous, and business is becoming more and more difficult.

Zhang Han has seen that the business in the store is very ordinary, the grain is the majority, but it is selling at a loss, and the rest of the small goods are rarely bought and sold, and they will only sell more when the small market opens next month, relying on the profits from selling the rest of the goods to make up for the losses of the grain business.

If the food is not made, the men in the store will have to open more than half, and the business will be even more crowded, and even the rest of the goods will be reduced.

After watching it for a few days, Zhang Han understood in his heart that the situation with Yusheng was really not optimistic.

Zhang Chun followed Zhang Han every day, his identity was different, and he inquired more about the news than Zhang Han.

"Shopkeeper Zhou is an old man, and he does his best to do things, and he usually doesn't like to talk to people about things other than business."

"Shopkeeper Li doesn't have a good temperament, but he helps collect the rent on Tianchengwei and Zhenyuwei, and he also manages the grain while collecting the rent, and he also runs the account collection. The storekeeper and Mr. Li, the account room, are all relatives of the shopkeeper Li, and they also eat together at lunchtime. ”

"The shopkeeper Liang is in charge of the daily affairs of the store, the purchase and delivery, and the monthly market, all of which are in his hands. This person is a bold person, most of the guys in the store have a good relationship with him, and I heard that the shopkeeper Liang also has a nephew who is a tiger, and he is also a famous figure in our castle. ”

Zhang Han sat in the cabinet, and Zhang Chun stood by the counter, whispering.

Zhang Chun is not very old, his face is blurred, he has been wandering around the store in the past few days, and it is estimated that there are few people who treat him as a dish, the more this is the case, there are really a lot of things to inquire about.

"How much does each person pay each month?"

"The young man has no monthly money, so he only rewards him at will at the end of the year, at most a few hundred dollars. The big guys range from 3,200 yuan per month, and the shopkeepers are of course the most taken by Zhou Da Cabinet, three taels per month, and the second and third cabinets are two taels. The bookkeeper and the treasurer both took one or two. ”

"It's not a lot of money......"

"It's not much...... Zhang Chun whispered: "I have inquired about other businesses in the past few days, and the guys' money is three or four percent more than ours, and there is still an annual reward at the end of the year, and the monthly money of the shopkeeper is also less than that of other businesses. ”

Zhang Han tapped his fingers on the counter and groaned, "You don't need to say it, I can see it." ”

The store is indeed a little depressed up and down, less energetic, less laughter, whether a store has centripetal force, whether it is running up, look at the appearance of the guys and shopkeepers.

Zhang Han thought for a while and ordered, "Invite the three shopkeepers over." ”

Zhang Chun replied and was about to go inside, Zhang Han waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll go in." ”

He has been sitting on the outer cabinet for the past few days, and a few shopkeepers are hiding in the inner quiet room except in the inner courtyard, and they don't come out much, only Zhou Fengji came out and dialed Zhang Han a few words, seeing that Zhang Han didn't have much to do, he only sat and watched the situation in the store every day.

But this situation is still not right, I haven't heard of the proprietor who can get started by sitting down, Zhang Han doesn't plan to wait any longer, time is not waiting, he has time, but he and Yusheng are afraid that they will go out of business if they delay it any longer.

The three shopkeepers are sitting and talking in the room, the room is not big, there are all things like account books on the cabinets around them, there are several abacus, there is only one table, and there are a lot of chairs.

Seeing Zhang Han come in, the three shopkeepers all stood up, and Liang Hong hurriedly smiled and said, "The young proprietor has something to order, just call us." ”

Zhang Han said with a smile: "I can't talk about orders, I have some things, and I want to discuss them with the three of them." ”

Zhou Fengji frowned, gave up his seat, stretched out his hand, and said, "Shaodong sat down and said." ”

"Well, Uncle Xie Zhou."

Unconsciously, Zhang Han changed his name, and his tone was much more affectionate.

Zhou Fengji was brought out of Puzhou by the grandfather when he was a teenager, and he is considered the younger generation of the grandfather, and the peer of Zhang Han's father Zhang Cheng.

Zhou Fengji listened, his face was really much softer, he had worked in the Zhang family for thirty years, and he deserved this Uncle Zhou.

Li Yuchun and Liang Hong glanced at each other, their eyes were a little complicated.

Zhang Han sat down, no longer polite, and said straight to the point: "Your monthly money, as well as the monthly money of the guys in the store, hasn't risen for at least ten years?" ”

"It hasn't risen in years." Zhou Fengji was a little surprised, and after thinking about it, he replied: "Since the death of the grandfather, the uncle has left early, the big 'grandma' is in charge, and the business is not as good as a year. ”

"There was originally a dividend at the end of the year, but I'm afraid there will be no more in the past few years?"

"Well, they are all losing money, how can there be such a thing as dividends."

"Dividends have to wait...... However, from Uncle Zhou to the gentleman in charge of the accounts, and then to the big and small guys, the monthly money should still rise, we can't be top-notch, we can't compare with those big businesses, and at least we can't treat you badly. From top to bottom, everyone has risen by 30%, which is almost the same as each family, Uncle Zhou, what do you think? ”

Zhang Han's expression was faint, calm and determined, not like he was talking about a big thing, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Zhang Han is calm, and the three shopkeepers are not calm.

Zhou Fengji was taken aback at first, and then there was not much expression on his face, only his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

Li Yuchun couldn't help coughing, as if he didn't think of what to say.

Liang Hong looked at everyone's eyes, his eyes rolled straight, and he didn't open his mouth for a while.

In the end, Zhou Fengji said: "Although this business is owned by the owner, but the business is not going well, and then the owner is so tired, we people can't bear it." Besides, has the young proprietor discussed this matter with the eldest 'grandmother'? For such a big thing, don't take ideas at will, it's a little difficult to get around when you say this......"

"Uncle Zhou, don't worry, I deserve to be at home in this matter, so I'll do it, don't be embarrassed." Zhang Han listened to Zhou Fengji's words, and figured out the taste in a few words, he knew that the cold old man in front of him was really warm, the words were not very good, and the meaning inside was good.

"Alas, let's do as the young proprietor says."

Although his salary had risen, Zhou Fengji didn't have a happy look on his face, but sighed.

"It's better for Uncle Zhou to go out and talk about this," Zhang Han said: "I'm new to the city, and I'm young, so it's better for Uncle Zhou to be in charge of everything." ”

"Well, I'll say it."

In the final analysis, the increase in money is a good thing, everyone came out, and when the people in the store gathered, Zhou Fengji said that the monthly money was raised, and everyone was thunderous.

"This matter is still Shaodong's opinion, and everyone has thanked him."

At this time, many people showed a sudden look, no wonder the money has not risen for many years, and the young proprietor has risen within a few days.

Either way, it was great news, and everyone was beaming with joy and walking a little faster as they came and went. Many people did not eat in the restaurant at noon, but chose to go home, apparently to tell their families the good news.
