Chapter 8 Conquest

Chang sat on the main seat in the middle, looking at his son with a smile, Zhang Han swept the corner of his eyes, and saw that there were outsiders in the house, several women's families, young and old, he was not easy to look at, took a step forward, and smiled at Chang's: "My son came back a little late today, but I didn't know that there were guests at home." ”

Chang smiled: "Is the store busy today? But what's the matter? ”

Zhang Han said peacefully: "It's the same as usual." ”

Chang Shi was satisfied: "It's okay to have nothing to do." ”

Since Zhang Han went to the store every day, Chang only looked at the account books at home, although the overall situation has not changed, at least she doesn't have to show up to check the situation of the store, which also saves a lot of worry.

Zhang Han's performance is also not bad, he goes out early and returns late every day, he is in the store every day, and he takes the idea to raise the monthly money to everyone, although Chang is distressed, he also feels that his son's proposition is not wrong...... Zhang Han went for a few days, and he knew that he would give grace to the next person, and at this level, it was also where Chang felt happy and happy.

The two of them said a few words, Chang pointed to a mother-in-law sitting under the west head, and said with a smile: "This is Aunt Ma, the woman who is commonly used in our family, you used to only read and ignore miscellaneous things, and you have never seen her." ”

Zhang Han knew that he was not a guest, a large family at that time, women and Taoists did not go out, they would only go to relatives, or rush to the temple fair during the New Year's Festival.

The third aunt is the nun Daogu Gugua Gu, who provides door-to-door religious services, and the six women have tooth women who sell rouge pollen, matchmakers who protect the media, stable women who deliver babies, and medical women who see patients.

Ya Po's main business is to sell rouge pollen, but the side business is to buy and sell people, from maids to small servants, and then to pet concubines, singers, dancers, classification, very clear, from this point of view, the difference between Ya Po and matchmaker comes out.

Zhang Han arched his hand and said with a smile: "I've seen Aunt Ma." ”

Ma Shi hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "My brother is really handsome, and his old body is really rare to see such a peugeot young man." ”

Zhang Han knew that his appearance was like this, so he smiled and didn't take it seriously.

This Ma Ya woman was very clever and quick-mouthed, and then smiled at the young woman beside her: "Jin Lian, do you see that the old body didn't coax you?" Such a good family, such a handsome little gentleman, where can you find it with a lantern? Looking at his appearance, he must be a good-natured person, and Grandma Chang is also a kind-hearted person, no matter how good his temper is, you can live here with peace of mind, wait to give birth to children, and wait for happiness in the future. ”

People say that the mouth of the matchmaker can say flowers, and this tooth woman is not far behind, but Zhang Han is a little confused, and looks at the "golden lotus" with wooden eyes.

Jin Liansheng is also Qi Chu, her eyes are watery, her skin is fair, her eyebrows are thick, but her face is very large, and her skin color is just like a silver plate, plus her big breasts and big body, she is really a "beauty" who is seriously overweight.

And under the skirt, there is a pair of three-inch feet, swaying.

Zhang Han gasped, it is indeed a bad custom of the Han people to wrap their feet, starting from the Southern Tang Dynasty, the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty are in the same lineage, and the Ming people also have foot binding, but the number is not much.

There is no foot binding in the Zhang family, after all, it is only a medium portal, and neither the grandfather nor Zhang Han's father has a concubine, so the small-footed woman will not be able to enter the door.

"Mother, what do you say?" Zhang Han felt bad, turned his head sharply, and looked at Chang.

Chang looked at the "Golden Lotus" with a smile, and there was a feeling of satisfaction in his eyes.

Listening to Zhang Han's question, Chang reluctantly withdrew his gaze and said to Zhang Hanzhengse: "You were not sensible before, but now you can see that you have grown up, and this Li Jinlian is the concubine that Aunt Thoma found for you." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Han felt that the little Venus in front of him was popping up, what kind of play is this? Didn't you say that if you don't get married, you can't take a concubine first? Doesn't it mean that big families have many rules? Isn't the Zhang family a big family that is part-time businessmen and students? Even if you don't abide by these rules, there's no reason to make such a thing as a concubine, right? Zhang Han in later generations has seen and eaten it, and all kinds of beauties have tried it, and this "beauty" in front of him is really unblessed.

When Zhang Han exclaimed, he clearly saw that the corners of Li Jinlian's mouth were slightly twitched, and he looked arrogant, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhang Han's rookie appearance.

"Mother, my son hasn't married a wife yet, why did he take a concubine?"

In front of so many people, Zhang Han couldn't confess his aesthetics, so he had to use roundabout tactics.

"It's not good to do that." Chang sighed: "But your grandfather came to Xinpingbao alone, and only your father has a son, and your father is only you, the door of our family is too thin, since you are sensible, it is good to have a concubine to serve you as soon as possible, give birth to a few more children early, and your mother will hold her grandson as soon as possible." ”

When it came to hugging his grandson, Chang was already smiling, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Li Jinlian.

It turns out that according to the standards at this time, this Li Jinlian is a typical image of birth and breeding, with a big chest and a big buttocks, not only can she give birth, but she is also a suitable man from the perspective of physiognomy.

This Ma Ya Po, this time she really didn't coax people, and she was right to pay fifty taels of middle-age fees.

As for Li Jinlian, the concubine, she has three hundred taels of silver.

Ordinary women, since not use this price, the past few years of Chengdu is not good, although Shanxi will not form a tide of escape, but the girls on hand are sold for dozens of taels at most, Li Jinlian is expensive, because she is a big family maid, after training, know the etiquette, of course, she has also been tested, or a virgin, otherwise Chang will categorically not allow her to enter the door.

Chang Shi pressed over with the killer feature of "Three Generations of Single Transmission", Zhang Han was really irrefutable, Ma Yapo took the silver, and left with a smile.

After Li Jinlian was taken out, Zhang Han protested to Chang's: "Mother, this woman is too fat and still has small feet, I really don't like her, I don't want her." ”

"What nonsense!" Chang showed Yan Gang's side at this time, and reprimanded: "Can you be the master of this matter? When my mother chooses an auspicious day, you accept her into the room! ”

“……”

Zhang Han was speechless, but he couldn't afford to be at home for such things, and he was really depressed.

He didn't tell Chang about today's store, and of course Zhang Chun had already been warned and was not allowed to mention it to anyone.

Zhang Han didn't pay attention to the few miscellaneous things of the shopkeeper, and now what he was thinking about was how to bring the business on the right track, as for the rest, it was insignificant, and after a while, he had his own means to subdue those people.

……

At dawn the next day, Zhang Han still got up early, took half an hour to exercise, played a few sets of punches, pulled a bow, sweated profusely, changed his clothes, and still walked to North Street.

The flow of people along the road is obviously much denser, the small market is about to open next month, many merchants who come to trade temporarily gradually increase, the inns and collapsed houses in the fort are full of people and goods, and the scene is very prosperous.

At that time, in the Ming Dynasty, in addition to Jiangnan and Jinbei, there was no place with such a strong commercial atmosphere.

When I arrived outside the store and Yusheng, it happened that the guys were "asking for a disguise".

Liang Hong was watching this, and a few young men were a little busy with their hands and feet, Liang Hong shouted: "Be careful for me, it's crooked, or it's unlucky, and your monthly money will be deducted if something happens." ”

Zhang Han smiled, Liang Hong is like this every day, in charge of these trivial things, when he first came a while ago, Liang Hong's heart was not high, and the things in the store were quite scattered, but now just from the matter in front of him, sure enough, he was not frightened yesterday, and today is different.

Liang Hong also saw Zhang Han, hesitated for a moment, but still greeted him with a smile, bowed his hand, and said with a smile: "Shaodong is here." ”

"Shopkeeper Liang has worked hard, I'm afraid I will go to the store before dawn every day."

"I'm used to it." Liang Hong is quite impressive, and he is of course the most diligent of the three shopkeepers, which is not false.

Liang Hong said again: "The day of opening a small market is also coming soon, and our store is now counting on the small market to make money, and we can't be sloppy." ”

While speaking, Zhou Fengji also arrived, and he also stood in front of the store to watch the guys hang up the pretense.

All the shops on North Street are the same, they open every morning, and the pretense is the most important thing.

At this time, Li Yuchun came over, Zhang Han nodded to him first, and said to Zhou Fengji: "Uncle Zhou, I agreed with the second cabinet yesterday and asked him to go down to collect grain." Tianchengwei and Zhenyuwei plus Yang and Wei, these three places also have a lot of land, the three acropolis and the local grain stores are hundreds, our grain can not only be taken from others, it is better to set up a few grain collection points by yourself. ”

Of course, it is most cost-effective for each grain store to collect grain by itself, but just taking it from the hands of big grain merchants is tantamount to begging for food, and the market is also controlled by others. Xinpingbao here is still the most grain sold every year, a stone of grain is not very big, sometimes even less than two dollars of silver, but a year to sell tens of thousands of stones is a profit of thousands of taels, don't underestimate these thousands of taels, Zhang Yun old man has been doing half a lifetime of trading is only 40,000 taels, how can this silver be easy to earn?

When Li Yuchun heard this, his face was first surprised, and then he showed an expected look.

Liang Hong's face also changed.

Yesterday's incident failed, he and Li Yuchun discussed with each other, and they both decided to follow the young proprietor to do business with peace of mind for a while, and then think about it when He Yusheng really couldn't hold on, but he didn't expect this young proprietor to act very decisively, and when they met this morning, they would send Li Yuchun to other places.

Of course, it is a good thing to collect grain, but there are many troubles and hardships, and there are many troubles and dangers, and the local fish and dragons are mixed, and the grain stores are fighting with each other.

Liang Hong wanted to step forward to speak, but Zhang Han turned his head to Zhou Fengji and said, "Uncle Zhou, go back and send some fish and meat noodles to Shopkeeper Li's house, and ask the counter to pay money." When people go out to do errands, they can't let them worry about their own affairs. ”

Li Yuchun's eyes were red, and a complex emotion came to his heart.

He is quite conceited and arrogant person, he was just a young man when the grandfather was there, and he was not very convinced by Zhang Cheng, and he was even less interested in Zhang Han.

And the way he designed didn't work at all, and now the young proprietor didn't make a noise, nor did he tear his face, saying that he was sending himself out, but he was only slightly punished, and he went back to take care of his own home, and the treatment was extremely generous, which made him have nothing to say.
