Zhou Fengji actually knew the matter in front of him very well, but he never expected that Zhang Han would deal with it in such a way.

Liang Hong was also very surprised, looking at Zhou Fengji, Zhang Han in front of him is mature and sophisticated, and he is so good that Li Yuchun himself has nothing to say, and when arranging, Zhang Han's tone is firm and non-negotiable.

Zhou Fengji nodded heavily, his eyes were actually a little red, and he said in a deep voice: "Just do what the young proprietor said, and in the future, everything in the store must be discussed with the young proprietor." ”

When he said the second sentence, Zhou Fengji looked at Liang Hong, Liang Hong nodded hurriedly, and responded: "This is natural, young proprietor, in the future, I will inform you of the things at hand." ”

"It's not necessary," Zhang Han said with a smile: "The things at hand of the shopkeeper Liang are very trivial, and he can't clear the warehouse and tell me, and he also tells me to buy an account book, which is really unnecessary." Write down everything, I always look at it, if there is something I don't understand, and then discuss it with the shopkeepers, so that the things in the store can gradually get started. ”

Zhou Fengji praised: "This is the right thing to do, the young proprietor is really the descendant of the master, and he is shrewd in his bones." ”

Liang Hong didn't speak, but just bowed his hand to Zhang Han again, and everything was silent.

Li Yuchun bowed to Zhang Hanshen, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Zhang Han has been in the store for so many days, and finally got the praise of this taciturn old shopkeeper, and also gained basic loyalty, he looked at a few shopkeepers, and couldn't help but smile.

"I said that I would ask two maids and four mothers-in-law to serve me, and give me a hundred taels of silver to make a face, and make a few new clothes with satin, why is there nothing?"

"Your Zhang family said that they were rich people, how did they live so downward."

"I'm leaving, let me go."

The fat beauty Li Jinlian has become a heart disease of Zhang Chang's family.

These days after I bought it, I kept crying at home every day, sometimes I wanted clothes, sometimes I wanted gold jewelry, and I wanted to press the box with silver, and I had to drink bird's nest porridge every morning, saying that I was used to drinking it in the original owner's house, and if I didn't drink it, I would get sick, and then ask someone to buy medicine with silver, if she didn't follow, she kept crying in the house, she was wide and fat, and she was full of energy, and the noise was known to the neighbors, and I don't know how many people laughed and crooked their mouths.

Chang's only hated itchy teeth, this woman is indeed from a big family, she is used to all kinds of problems, Ma Ya Po is also bragging in advance, the two sides can't match, Li Jinlian of course makes a lot of trouble, the hated Chang is angry, and I really want to take someone to take the Ma Ya Po home.

This time Zhang Han is relieved, he doesn't have to think of a way, and it is impossible for Chang to ask him to have a round house with this woman, such a woman is really accepted into a concubine, I don't know how much more to give birth to.

It's just that this woman spent a lot of money to buy it, and the Zhang family is a good family, it is impossible to abuse her, and the daily supply is a little poor, and she is crying, and the house is regarded as a disaster, and it is up to Zhang Han to simply sell it to the Qinglou, but unfortunately the Chang family will never agree.

"Hurry up, hurry up." Listening to the sound of howling and crying, Zhang Han hurriedly put on his clothes, put on a ratskin hat, tied a wind belt, and urged Zhang Chun to hurry up and go with him.

In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of the month, this was the last day of the opening of the small market this year, Zhang Han had been in the store for a long time, and knew that the opening of the small market was the most important thing for every business.

In these days, Zhang Han not only learned the business methods of this era in the store every day, but also walked all over North Street and South Street, as long as there were merchants in the fort, he walked to see how other people's businesses were doing, studying which kind of business was more profitable, and looking for greater business opportunities.

Because he was addicted to business, he didn't touch a book at all these days, which surprised people who knew him well.

There are also some scenic spots in the city, such as the Jade Emperor Pavilion, the City God Temple, the Guan Gong Temple, the Confucian Temple, the Xue Palace, and some places like the Yamen, which Zhang Han has never visited.

When I arrived at North Street, every business was already nervously preparing, and Yusheng was no exception, when Zhang Han arrived, the two shopkeepers had already arrived, and all the guys had prepared samples of the goods to be sold, ready to go to the market together.

Xinpingbao City is one of the most important trade points for Mongolia, the small market every month is also very important, this is also the welfare of the merchants to the imperial court, of course, it is also the Ming Dynasty court to take into account the needs of Mongolia, although the annual official market trade volume is large, but far from solving the daily needs of Mongolian herdsmen, only to meet the needs of the supreme ruler of the tribe and a few nobles, if there is no small market opened every month, those friends in the north are not so good to speak, not enough is naturally to rob, for the actual needs of the border, Small markets are also a must.

Of course, the Ming Dynasty still wants to save face, and only trades with the Mongolian right-wing, and the left-wing barbarians refuse to surrender, so they will continue to fight, and the horse market will only be opened with the Jurchens.

"The drum beats, before the three drums, you must enter, everyone hurry up."

Everyone stood in front of the store and greeted each other, all of them looked nervous, and after faintly hearing the drum sound on the side of the market, Zhou Fengji's face was straight, and he immediately ordered everyone to set off.

All the samples of the goods were placed on two mule carts, and when they arrived at the market, they set up a door panel and set up a stall for free trade.

"Uncle Zhou," Zhang Han and Zhou Fengji walked together, Zhang Han asked Zhou Fengji, "How to transport the goods away?" ”

"The Tartars have their own horse team, how many goods we sell, they calculate how much capacity they need, and come to carry them." Zhou Fengji patiently explained: "This is the rule of these years, if it is in the early years, we can only transport the goods to the market and deliver them on the spot, and the Tartars are not allowed to walk around in the fort." ”

"In the early decades, the Tartars often made mistakes," Liang Hong said with a smile: "Now that they have stopped a lot, I don't have to guard against them much." ”

Zhou Fengji said again: "The Tartars are also treacherous and tight, in fact, we would rather send the goods over, before the opening of the official city they came to pay tribute, the horses they rode were still sold to us, all the way did not pity, the sick and the dead have, and then the court negotiated with me, stipulating the number of tribute envoys, stipulating that they could only ride their own horses, not the horses sold to us, which stopped a lot." Young proprietor, there are a lot of crooked doorways here, don't look at the surface of the Tartars and let them deceive. ”

These are the experience of border trade, very valuable, the two shopkeepers kept talking, Zhang Han just listened, and asked if he didn't understand, very humble. Seeing him like this, Zhou Fengji's face was full of smiles, and he felt that there was a successor to Master Zhang Yun.

The horse market is not far from the north of Xinpingbao, a large place specially opened up, with a fence, a city gate, and an arrow tower, antlers, the direction to the north, there are traces of the trench, at the beginning of the mutual market, each other is very wary, the Mongols come more, the Ming army has a favorable geographical advantage, fortunately, now the transaction is long, the merchants who come along the way are laughing with each other, and there is no tension at all.

Waiting for the people to enter the door, the second drum sounded, there was a miscellaneous footsteps in front of the gate, the flag was unfurled, first a small group of cavalry wearing armor and holding a long knife and a spear came in, ran along the fence, and finally stopped the horse at a high platform, and then the infantry carrying spears in the brigade, and the horse team in the middle, this time there were many officers wearing iron armor in the horse team, and finally there was a foot team carrying spears, the total number of people was about five hundred, of which the horse team had more than one hundred people.

Liang Hong was beside Zhang Han, and seeing the curiosity on Zhang Han's face, he explained softly at the moment: "The horse team is the family of General Lai of Xinping Road, and the infantry team is part of the garrison battalion...... said that it was partial, but in fact, there were more than 1,600 soldiers, and the actual amount was only 1,000 people, and most of them had already come here. ”

"Why are they dressed in such tatters?"

Zhang Han was surprised not by what Liang Hong said, Zhang Han did not go out of the gate before he crossed, only studied at home, and even went to the business name less, of course, there was no chance to meet soldiers, after crossing, Zhang Han was not very interested in military and political affairs, the only thing he was interested in was business, Zhang Han considered bribing the government, and later dispelled this idea.

At this time, unlike later generations, businessmen without status can not easily offend the government, but they also cannot easily approach those who have power, the so-called identity is a part of the gentry or military honorable class, at least it is also the periphery, if not, it is better to make a fortune quietly, it is better not to be remembered, otherwise the family will be ruined.

People say that distance produces beauty, Zhang Han is still quite interested in the soldiers of this era, but at this time, when he saw it, the first feeling was that there was a huge group of flowers in front of him...... The clothes are tattered, the face is yellow and thin, the only difference is that Hanako is holding a dog beating stick, and these "soldiers" in front of him are holding a red tassel spear.

"It's not been a day or two since the army withered, it was like this when I was young, and I'm afraid it was the same decades ago and a hundred years ago."

Liang Hong is quite knowledgeable, and Zhou Fengji also said on the side: "Young owner, the border army relies on cavalry, mainly the families of generals and officers below the general army. ”

Zhang Han could only reluctantly nod, the cavalry of the hundred or so people was indeed still present, it looked quite brave, there was a small amount of iron armor, most of it was leather armor, decorated with iron leaves, and the weapons in his hands were also strange, all kinds of them, and those pikemen called Huazi seemed to be just cannon fodder for the façade.
