Chapter 563: Ponzi Scheme (5)

For three days in a row, the courtyard was overcrowded, and even the big and small merchants around Shouchun came one after another. The discerning vendors immediately set up their stalls not far from the courtyard, especially those who sold food, and the business was surprisingly good.

Strongly recommended by Hawking, Er Ya followed Su Ren to Shouchun, Su Ren's cook, under the instigation of Su Ren, on the second day of the long queue outside the courtyard, he set up a stall selling bread and meat in front of the gate. In order to make Erya's business popular, early every morning, when there are the most people, Su Ren will send Huang Shisan or Manniu to Erya's stall to sell more than a dozen pastries and meat, and sometimes Su Ren will appear in person.

Sure enough, this trick is very clever, but Erya's stall is the latest to collect the earliest, and the money earned is also the most. Business is good, and she is a woman, so naturally someone has the idea of beating the second girl. But after the next day, after the guys who wanted to collect money were interrupted, no one dared to go to Erya's stall to spread wild, and even as long as Erya shouted and lined up, both the people and those who sent money stood up in a proper manner, even if they didn't buy it in the end, they were accompanied by a smiling face.

The few children in the backyard who have nothing to do help Erya, and Erya is not in vain, and a few dollars are used as wages every day, so that the children's parents are happy, and they are a little sweeter when they see Erya's mouth again.

As an authentic Guanzhong person, the desire for meat buns is something that can never be erased from the depths of Su Ren's memory. Without high-quality flour, you can't make a strong and crispy toto bun, so you can only replace it with this steamed dough, the taste is not very authentic, at least a little interesting. Standing next to Erya's stall, eating the bread and meat one bite at a time, he couldn't take care of the oil in his mouth.

Some people who knew Su Ren began to quip: "Mr. Su, you are even good at this?" With your strength, what can't you eat? Robbing the second girl's food with us is not the way of an official. ”

Su Ren laughed: "How can I have any ability to be an official, let alone meat before, I can't eat such a good pastry, people, no matter how rich I am, I still can't forget the first time I ate the most delicious thing." ”

Everyone nodded. Another person said: "Mr. Su, you said that you and we are both in business, why are you so able to make money, and we don't have this know-how?" ”

Su Ren smiled again: "People are not the same!" Some people can be officials, some people can only be slaves, you don't think about why others can be big officials, but you can't? To sum it up, it's just two words, vision! ”

"Vision?"

"That's right! It's vision! Su Rensan stuffed all the bread and meat in his hand into his mouth, took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands: "What is vision?" I'll give you an analogy. He searched around, picked up three clods of soil, came to the steps in front of the door, picked up one and put it on the first step: "This is you, you can only see the first step, this is the world's wealthy businessmen, I can see the second step, I ......!" Su Ren paused, and threw the third clod of soil out with a whoosh, almost hitting a servant in line, and fell to the ground and turned into powder: "My vision is so far, do you say that I can make more money than you?" ”

**Naked show-off, no one feels comfortable listening to it. After being stunned for a blink of an eye, there were soon sharp applause. With a smiling face, he said to Su Ren: "What Mr. Su said is that we really don't have your vision, so I beg you to take us and let's make a lot of money together." ”

Su Ren laughed and stretched out his thumb at the man: "Okay, just by your words, I will be the first to collect your money today!" ”

The gate of the courtyard opened, Hou Yong crossed his legs and stood at the door, and suddenly saw Su Ren sitting on the steps. Su Ren smiled, pointed to the guy who cooperated with him just now, and said to Hou Yong: "Today he is the first!" ”

In the envious eyes of everyone, the kid arched his hand at his peers around him, bowed his head and followed Su Ren into the courtyard. The bookkeeper has already put on a posture, and the remuneration and books, silk cloth, and pen and ink have already been prepared. They were all borrowed by Su Ren, and they would be paid every day they worked, and although the work here was a little tiring compared to the original place, they earned more, so they naturally greeted those who sent money with a smile.

If a person is registered, someone will immediately follow the person to take the copper coins or gold, and they must be inspected on the spot, and without any problems, a voucher written in silk cloth will be issued, and everything will be settled. Holding the silk cloth in his hand, those who sent money happily waited for the next month to come to receive the money according to the date on the silk cloth.

This is for small businessmen, and those big businessmen are naturally different. They bring a lot of money, and it takes a long time to count them, and if you can't make any mistakes, it will naturally take longer. For this reason, Su Ren asked people to prepare tables, chairs and food in the side hall of the other courtyard, and all the big businessmen gathered here to wait. If you have food and drink, you have to talk about the current situation, looking forward to how much dividends you will receive next month, and also showing others what kind of rich person you will become.

Sang Yuji is Liu Hong's representative, and naturally belongs to the list of big businessmen, and he is still the largest businessman. He didn't have to queue up outside the gate, he had someone arrange everything for him, get everything done, and the silk cloth was waiting in the side hall. Everyone knows that he is Liu Hong's spokesperson, as long as they see him, everyone immediately relaxes. Since the King of Huainan believed in Su Ren, what else did they not trust?

"Shopkeeper Sang, how much did you bring today?" A businessman who was familiar with Sang Yuji came to his side and asked mysteriously.

Sang Yuji glanced at the man: "It's hard to say, not to mention that you still don't know about this matter." ”

The merchant smiled: "I really shouldn't know, didn't the shopkeeper Sang add your private collection to this?" What I'm asking is how much did you bring with yourself? ”

"How many did you bring?" Sang Yuji asked rhetorically.

The man smiled and stretched out his big hand: "No more, no less, fifty gold!" What do you think? ”

"Fifty gold, a lot! I don't have as much money as you, only ten gold. ”

"Oh? Shopkeeper Sang doesn't seem to be able to trust Mr. Su? Or is it that the trip to Jiangsu made the shopkeeper of Sang to such an extent? ”

Sang Yuji frowned: "Where do you know?" ”

"Although the fifth prince can't look down on me and wait, Jiangsu didn't take us, but it made me lose a lot, it's no secret that things under Qingyun Mountain are not secret, the blue wolf can be regarded as full this time, and the largest dozen businessmen in Huainan have won it in one fell swoop, and there are eight hundred without a thousand gold, right? The shopkeeper has no money, and he said it in the past! He didn't whisper these words, and the people on the side all heard them clearly, and many of them had gloating expressions on their faces.

Sang Yuji rolled his eyes: "You don't have to worry about this matter!" ”

The man laughed again: "Naturally, I don't have to worry about it, and it's not my money, right?" A few laughed along with the man, causing Sang Yuji to glare angrily.

Su Ren returned to the room, took a sip of water, stretched, and sat crookedly on the chair. Today's performance is over, he is the most idle person in the entire courtyard, even Huang Shisan and Manniu have to go out to support the scene when Hou Yong is too busy, and Su Ren only has to open his eyes for Erya every morning, and he has nothing to do the rest of the time.

As the money increased, the small treasury could no longer be piled up, not so much, but most of the copper coins were brought in large quantities and weights, but the actual amount was pitiful. Let Cui Jiuming transport it twice, this guy has complained, feeling that it is too wasteful to transport copper coins, and it should be exchanged for gold in Shouchun City, but he doesn't want to think about who has so much gold in Shouchun City today.

After eating a few too greasy pastries with meat, a cup of tea is a little more comfortable. Han Qing clasped his hands and came to the door: "There is no movement in the Huainan Palace, did they smell something?" ”

Su Ren thought for a while: "It's indeed possible, I said a lot to Liu Hong that day, and the effect of the cloudy mountain fog cover should be better." ”

"What if King Huainan doesn't take the bait?"

"Then I can only wait for the end of the month to fight again, it's really not good to count Liu An's life."

Han Qing sighed: "That's the only way, Shi Yu just reported that the money belonging to the Huainan Royal Mansion has been figured out, about 50,000 gold, in addition to the daily expenses, Liu An can use no less than 30,000 gold, all of which are placed in the palace treasury and closely guarded, except for Liu An himself, no one is allowed to come within ten steps." ”

"So careful? If a fire burns, what does Mr. Han think? ”

Han Qing smiled: "It's all gold, what if it is burned?" ”

"Where's the robbery?"

"Mr. is joking again, Liu An is so nervous about his money, even if he can get out of the palace, Shouchun City, and Huainan Kingdom, with our manpower, we can't escape at all, let alone carry so much gold."

Su Ren shook his head and sighed: "I'm really unwilling, how much is 30,000 gold!" ”

For half a month, someone sent money every day. According to Su Ren's instructions, only three types of people, such as businessmen, Haoqiang, and gate valves, can send money in, and none of those ordinary people who do small business are allowed to enter the door. For this reason, it almost caused the second turmoil in Shouchun, but thanks to Liu An's timely dispatch of troops to block the streets, the trouble was spared. When the money from those merchants, Haoqiang, and gate valves was almost gone, the courtyard finally returned to its previous calm.

The data reported by Cui Jiuming was compared with the data recorded by the bookkeepers who received the money, and there was not a single error. Su Ren gave each of those bookkeepers a big red envelope, politely sent them away, and began to wait patiently for what would happen in half a month.

In everyone's expectation, it was finally the end of the month, and tomorrow is the time to distribute dividends, and many people couldn't sleep with excitement tonight. Most of the money has already been carried away by Cui Jiuming, and the rest is only enough for the dividends to be distributed tomorrow. This time, whether he could wait for the money sent by Liu Hong or not, Su Ren decided to retreat. Three days ago, he had received the order of the imperial court, and his tone was very tough, asking him to return to Chang'an as soon as possible, and he didn't know what was going on in Chang'an.
