Chapter 36 The Way of Business

"Commoners, the pigs don't have to eat, you look for me!"

Yakult looked at the Thai armor with a sad face, and patted his chest confidently.

"Looking for you? Let the pigs eat you? Taijia said angrily, "If I were a pig, I wouldn't even bother to eat you!" ”

"If you're a pig, then I'm going to eat you!"

Taijia glanced at Yakult with disdain, this guy knows how to play tricks, and he obviously has to chase after himself not long ago...... Although this doesn't feel bad, this guy comes to him every once in a while, and he has to spend an extra person's meal money for a meal.

Since Yakult met the Thai League, he was also ungrounded by his father, and his father also asked him to come and deal with the Thai Armor often.

"Seriously!" Yakult coughed twice and said solemnly: "Now there is an errand, although it can't make you rich overnight, but it can also temporarily solve your urgent needs, do you take it or not?" ”

“…… You're going to keep me? ”

"Get out!"

Taijia shook his head and said, "Don't do anything that kills people, then I won't do it!" I won't go if the pay is too small, and ......"

"Don't pull it down!"

"Gotta get it! Hurry up and talk about it! ”

Yakult scolded secretly, and then said, "You know, merchant, right? ”

"Which merchant are you talking about?"

"It must be the merchant who wrote the deed, can't I still let you sell things?"

"I know, merchant, is it that what you said has something to do with them?"

Yakult said: "The merchant is good at trade, has a lot of wealth, and has countless grains, grass, cattle and sheep, but is slightly inferior in terms of military strength. My father has calculated that as long as you dispatch one-fifth of the Shushan clan's troops, you can defeat the merchants......"

"Are you going to let me be a bodyguard?" After saying that, Taijia shook his head directly, "Come on!" Last time, the matter of Du Wenshan has not eased up, and I was reprimanded by the Marquis, and now I am hungry and full, do you still let me go to find death? ”

"You're half right, but it's not for you to be a bodyguard, the merchants are short of soldiers, and now there is a big trouble in front of them, you just need to help them solve it! The descendants of the merchants are very generous, and maybe thousands of loads of grain will be sent at that time? ”

Taijia wondered: "What trouble?" ”

"I'm afraid that if I say it, you'll back down."

"Can I fix it?"

"Except for you, I'm afraid only Biya can solve it."

Taijia thought about it again and again, and now that his heart is desperate, it seems that he can only take Yakult's advice, otherwise after these two days, he will starve to death! Even if he starves to death, his parents' taxes are still counting on him!

Thinking of his parents, Taijia lifted his spirits again, his morale was lifted, and he shouted: "Go!" ”

"Slow!"

"What?"

"There......"

Taijia looked at Yakult's finger, and it turned out that this guy was pointing to poor Jian and Xingfu who came here to play. However, the two men were dressed ordinarily, almost like slaves, and it was only because they didn't do work that they were recognized by Yakult.

"Who are they?" Yakult asked in a sour tone.

"Oh, they......" Taijia smiled, "the man is my brother, his name is Qianjian, and he is the only one in the whole tribe who dares to swim in the water of the Minjiang River; The woman's name is Xingfu, and she is mine...... My unmarried, sister-in-law...... Right? ”

Taijia said shyly, blushing and lowering his head, what are you talking about, he is not engaged to Xingfu yet, what nonsense is he talking in front of outsiders......

"Brother......

Yakult suddenly felt it, but when he thought of his four elder brothers, he remembered that he was locked in the toilet room by them when he was three years old, and he fell in the toilet overnight...... (Actually, no, because Jin Jinggong is the first)

When he was five years old, his eldest brother was successful in archery, but he was forced by his brothers to tie himself to the arrow target...... The worst thing is that his brother actually shoots arrows with his eyes closed!

When I was eight years old, I went out with my brother to hide and seek, but I didn't find one at night, and later I learned that they were bored while they were blindfolded, and they all went back......

During the coming-of-age ceremony, the gift that Yang Yuan gave him was damaged, and the four of them said that they wanted to compensate themselves for a new one, but they have not paid until now......

"Damn, what's so nice about this!"

……

Thai Jia didn't feel the sour vinegar of Yakult all the way, as a fledgling boy, it is normal to want his friends to be alone, who hasn't robbed friends with others when they were young? (When I was five or six years old, I was often forced by two people to break up with the other...... wry smile)

He didn't allow Poor Jian and Xingfu to follow. Taijia thought that he was still not used to getting along with the common people, but he didn't mind much, anyway, his words were quite gentle, not like Du Wenshan at the beginning.

Speaking of Duveon Hill...... I don't know what happened to him now. Tygar only knew that someone had raided his house, but he didn't know it; Yakult might have known something, but he didn't mention it, and he didn't want to ask.

The tribe of merchants was built on a wide flat land, which looked like a dense forest from a distance, standing in the middle of a surging river; Only by taking a closer look can you find that the adobe houses, thatched houses and even tiled houses made of pottery shards hidden in the dense forest are far more diverse than the buildings of the Taijia tribe.

The Shang Dynasty is the first dynasty recorded in history, the ancient Shu silkworm Cong clan and the Youyi clan were attacked by Xia Ji, and gave beauties to protect all the falls, which indirectly made Shang Tang destroy Xia. Although Du Yu sent troops to attack Shang, there were no eternal enemies in that era, and Shu and Shang still had an extraordinary friendship, which is why Shu contained the descendants of the Shang Dynasty.

Merchants came to this land, brought with them all kinds of techniques of the Shang Dynasty, and established themselves in this place with their own talents.

It's just that Di Xin's experience has made them reduce the demand for slaves, and without slaves, there will naturally be more common people, and there will be fewer soldiers in the higher ranks. In a tribe of more than 1,000 people, there are less than 50 soldiers, which is even less than some villages!

Stepping off the boat, he was greeted by two well-dressed women, who smiled at them: "Are you here to do business, or are you here to look for relatives?" Have you ever found an inn to rest? If not, I'll take you two with you! ”

"Uh......"

When has the Thai Armor seen such a battle? As soon as you get off the boat, there are people who receive you and take them to rest, so cool?

He was about to agree, but was interrupted by Yakult, who smiled at the two of them and said, "I'm here to find a merchant, so I won't trouble the two of you!" With that, he picked up the Thai armor and turned around and left.

"Fool, what are you leaving! You can rest, maybe you can eat something......"

Yakult glanced at him, hated iron and steel, and said, "I want money!" ”

"Huh?"

"Those two people are the trust of the merchant's house, some people who come here for the first time and don't know the inside story may follow them stupidly, and finally find out that they want to give money, and you can only obediently give the money when the time comes."

"What is the building for?"

"It's a place to rest, as long as you have money, you can eat, drink, and lazar."

Taijia had to exclaim, no wonder this businessman would do business, why didn't he think about it? After all, their social tribes barter and don't have much serious business, so who would think about soliciting customers or something?

However, these things have been popular in the Central Plains for a long time.

Yakult took the Thai Armor through the unfamiliar streets, allowing the Thai Armor to get to know the merchant thoroughly. These guys boasted about what they were selling, so much so that the Thai Jia wanted to buy it many times, and then they realized that they were shy and walked away helplessly.

He even thought for a moment that these guys must have done some weird sorcery, otherwise why would he want to buy their stuff so much?

A clever mouth is the key to a businessman's wealth, and Taijia feels that he will not be able to become a successful businessman in his life.

"Little brother, do you want the freshly picked reeds (radish)?"

A crisp voice grabbed Taijia's eyes, and in this fancy market, it seemed extremely simple, but it made people feel surprised.

It was just an uncle who didn't look amazing, looking at the Thai armor with a smile on his face. Taijia didn't pick radishes either, and asked, "Uncle, are you really a businessman?" ”

"What do you mean, young man?"

Taijia pursed his lips and said, "The merchants in this market all describe how amazing their things are, and people want to buy them when they hear them; Uncle, you just solicit customers like this, can you get money? ”

The uncle was not annoyed, but said with a smile: "Boy, which tribe are you from?" ”

"The Di Clan."

"It's a good seedling, if you're interested in being a businessman, I can take you as an apprentice!"

When Taijia heard this, he mistook the "merchant" of this business for the tribal "merchant", and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, I don't want to be a merchant!" (In ancient times, merchants were explained separately, and merchants sat on Jia, these people should actually be called Jia people, but there will definitely be many readers who are not suitable for calling Jia people!) )

"Really...... That's a pity! ”

The uncle shook his head helplessly, Taijia scratched his head, and asked, "Uncle, you haven't said why!" ”

"Isn't it noticeable that others are clever and simple, but that makes me plain and simple?" The uncle smiled kindly, "Hehe, boy, you are still young, and it is normal not to understand." Our tribe is known for being good at business, and I won't hide it from you...... Behold the man who is with you, has he been deceived by the rhetoric of those men? ”

Taijia turned his head and looked at Yakult, who was looking for something not far away, although he knew that he was looking for himself, he was still curious about his uncle's question.

Although Yakult has been confined to the house all year round, it is definitely more knowledgeable than the Thai League. The latter shook his head and admitted that he was a shallow learner.

"Sooner or later, the customers who come by words will run out of customers, and this is the lowest kind of businessman. It is true that clever words are the key to capturing the hearts and minds of customers, but if a customer finally finds out that he has bought something he doesn't want, can the person who tricked him into buying something still be able to get money from him? ”

Taijia shook his head ignorantly, although he didn't quite understand, but the achievements obtained by deception would not last long after all.

The uncle added: "Of course, there are many capable people among the low-level businessmen who can make their business big by their words, and these people are medium-class businessmen. He is more capable than a low-ranking merchant, but less perceptive than a high-ranking merchant. ”

"What do you mean by a high merchant?"

The uncle smiled and said, "If you are my apprentice, I will tell you!" ”

At this time, Yakult, who was looking in the crowd, finally found the Thai armor and ran over angrily.

Taijia said: "I don't want to be a businessman!" ”

If he wanted to be a merchant, he would have chosen the method of doing business from the immortals.

The uncle sighed regretfully, but still said: "That's it, you and I are destined to meet, and it doesn't hurt to tell you...... The highest businessmen are divided into three types, one is to be able to find exactly what the customer needs, and grasp the weakness of the customer's heart, and encourage him to buy the goods without feeling cheated; One is to be able to invest in the most rewarding goods in the future, this kind of businessman has a unique vision, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to produce a ...... in a hundred years" (I hope some readers can see who these two people refer to in that era)

"What about the other one?"

The uncle suddenly said without thinking: "In fact, everyone is a businessman, and everyone is inseparable from the way of businessmen in their lives." Choosing a career is a transaction, choosing which family to marry with is also a transaction, the king rewarding officials is also a transaction, and even when you go out, you will shop around for accommodation and dinner, these are all ways of business. As long as you know the way of doing business, then you know the way of being a man. Merchant merchant is a merchant and a person...... Even so, don't you want to be a businessman? ”

"I ......"

Before Taijia could answer, a big and powerful hand suddenly grabbed him and scolded: "I haven't looked at you for a long time, and you're gone!" It's just a matter of looking at sculpture and bronze, what's so good about a reed? Gone, gone! ”

"Wait, wait......"

However, Yakult didn't give him a chance to defend himself at all, and pulled him out of the market, leaving only the smiling uncle behind.

"There is also a kind of high merchant, and that is to have a unique kind of goods, which not only can please the guests, but which cannot be possessed anywhere else but by him...... Would you be a high-class businessman? ”

"The Divine Destiny Bird descends to give birth to business. The house is full of earth and mang, and the ancient emperor ordered the martial soup ......"
