Chapter 375: Those who contribute money and those who contribute
Ah Xun came back and picked a good time. During the Chinese New Year, no one cares whether there is one less person at the Maoling construction site or whether there is one more outsider in Chang'an City. The emperor was happy with his noble son, and he didn't care about a strong man who escaped from Maoling. A big bowl of soup cakes, Ah Xun ate it in three or two clicks, reached out and picked up a few dough cakes, and swallowed them in a big gulp. Eating too fast, the dough was blocked in his throat, and he rolled his eyes when he choked, but he didn't want to drink more water.
"You haven't eaten in the past few days? How is it the same as a starving ghost? Huang 13 sat opposite Ah Xun and drank water without a sip.
Ah Xun's mouth was stuffed with something: "A few days? I haven't had a full meal since I left Chang'an, look at my current appearance, I am even more depressed than when my husband first saw me, at least I still have a complete set of clothes at that time, now, what is the difference between me and the beggars on the street? ”
"Your life is still alive!" Huang 13 looked at Ah Xun and said.
Ah Xun was stunned for a moment, and immediately stopped eating: "Mr. wants to kill me?" ”
Huang Shisan smiled disdainfully: "If you want to kill you, you will be killed earlier?" Why let you come back? ”
Tsumi let out a long breath and began to gulp down again. There were three bowls of soup cakes, five dough cakes, and a plate of roast mutton from Cuixianglou, which fed Ah Xun. Stroking his bulging belly, he poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it dry in one gulp.
After a pause, Ah Xun said, "Mr. still refuses to see me?" ”
Huang 13 didn't answer him, got up and packed up the dishes, and put them in the food box beside him: "Peace of mind to live here, I will come back in the afternoon." After saying that, he got up and left, not giving Ah Xun a chance to ask questions.
Su Ren really didn't want to see Ah Xun, what did he say when he saw him? Also, Su Ren is very busy, the construction of the Taixue construction site has reached a critical time, since the house was given to the magnates, the houses around Taixue suddenly became very easy to sell. Not to mention 100,000 yuan, it is 200,000 yuan to buy a house. Not only Chang'an people, but the farthest buyer is from Wu State.
For buyers, Su Renlai does not refuse, as long as he gives money, he never asks who the buyer is and what he buys to do. Dong Zhongshu has a lot of opinions about this: "Boy, you can see clearly, if it is ...... in the future"
Before he finished speaking, Su Ren interrupted with a smile: "What do you want to do in the future?" We build a house, as long as someone buys it, no matter whether his money is robbed or stolen, even if something happens in the future, it is his business. ”
"Humph! I hate you the most about this businessman's face. ”
"There's no way to spend so much money and do so much work, and it's a bit rewarding, right?" Su Ren saw Dong Zhongshu open his mouth, and hurriedly stopped: "I know what you want to say, yes, the magnates have donated some money, but you also know that since you have money, Your Majesty has made a major transformation of Taixue, and it has long exceeded the budget, and the extra money is probably not enough, don't sell the house, what should I do?" You can't lose money, can you? ”
"Crooked!" Dong Zhongshu glared at Su Ren.
Wen Dang smiled: "The ancients said, a gentleman loves money and takes it in the right way, Ziheng's money is not stolen or robbed, it is already good to be able to take it out to build Taixue, why does Brother Dong still force it?" ”
Dong Zhongshu stopped talking, but his face was not good. Wen Dang continued: "Even if the Kwantung princes come to buy a house, it is a good thing to say, 200,000 yuan, how much grain, grass, and armor can be stored?" This house is circled back, and this house is in Chang'an, they can't take it away, those people used to come secretly, but now they have a place to live, which is a good thing! ”
"Or the teacher understands me!" Su Ren hurriedly interjected.
Dong Zhongshu looked at Wen Dang, then at Su Ren, and shook his head: "Hey! What kind of teachers there are, what kind of students there are! ”
Wen Dang smiled, and he was not angry: "Since I walked out of the Tingwei Office, I have seen that there are good and bad sides in things in this world, it depends on how you understand it, Brother Dong thinks that selling the house to those princes is convenient for them to collude with the powerful, hasn't Brother Dong thought that how many powerful people will come to live in such a house?" Even if you live, you are not the core of the elite, if you sell it, you will sell it, let those princes also see it, the prosperity of our Chang'an, let them die as soon as possible. ”
Dong Qian came in with tea, and when she saw her father Dong Zhongshu's face was not good, she knew that she was training people again. His father is good at everything, and he has his own opinions on learning and governing the country, but he can't look down on Su Ren.
put the freshly brewed tea in front of Dong Zhongshu, turned behind Dong Zhongshu, pinched Dong Zhongshu's shoulder, and began to coquetry: "Father, who made you angry again, tell the child, the child will teach him a lesson for you!" As she spoke, Dong Qian turned her head and glanced at Su Ren.
Su Ren smiled: "Who dares to make Mr. Dong angry, I am listening to the teachings here." ”
Dong Zhongshu sighed: "My daughter is outgoing, the old man can't control it, let's go, don't wander around in front of me!" ”
Wen Dang laughed: "Brother Dong, my niece wants to be angry with you, why is she outgoing?" ”
Dong Zhongshu turned his head and glanced at Dong Qian: "Really?" ”
Dong Qian smiled, and the strength in her hand was better. His eyes always glanced at Su Ren.
During the Chinese New Year, Su Ren spent most of his time on the construction site, this was his first project, and many things were decided by him personally, and no one could make up his mind. Even Sima Xiangru didn't understand why Su Ren dug the sewer so roughly; I don't understand why Su Ren has to build a arcade, let alone why he has to build a water tower that costs people and money, and he also finds a special person every day to transport water from outside the city to sprinkle water on the construction site.
Su Ren didn't say it, he asked in vain. He has more important things to do, there are thousands of people on the construction site every day, and he has to take care of the food, drink and Lazar of these people, according to Su Ren's requirements, he has to redo everything that is not done, negotiate with those material suppliers, and deal with the rich people who come to see and buy houses. All of this, there can be no mistakes.
followed Su Ren to inspect the construction site, and when he returned to the headquarters, Su Ren nodded: "Brother Sima has worked hard, thanks to Brother Sima, otherwise I would have to die of exhaustion alone!" ”
Sima Xiangru took the bamboo slip: "Yesterday I sold five more houses, which is the most yin place behind Taixue, each with 150,000 yuan, a total of 750,000 yuan, so far, there are not many left, and more than a dozen shops near the gate of Taixue have not been sold, according to the current market, the shops there are at least more than 250,000, but 3 million yuan, really not sold?" ”
"If you don't sell it, how can such a good location fall into the hands of others?" Su Ren took a sip of tea: "Don't sell the rest of the houses, and close the sales department tomorrow!" ”
"That's six or seven million dollars, are you willing to do it?"
"Brother Sima is from Shu County with me, when will I put these six or seven million dollars in my eyes? For the rest of the houses, you can see if you like them, pick one! ”
"Me?"
Su Ren nodded: "Not only you, Leng Jun and Su Kai each have a house, they have a family, they have wives and children, and they can't send people under the fence anymore, of course, I mean that we live together, and it's convenient to move around." ”
"You're moving here too?"
"Can't you?"
"It's too sudden!"
Su Ren smiled: "Over the years, it has not been easy for us to come over, thanks to Cui Chengru's help in Chang'an, since you have spent money, you have to give something back, although you have not contributed money, but you have contributed to it, even if it is a welfare!" In addition, those shops, if you can also take a household, even if you rent it out, you have to have thousands of dollars every year, it is not easy for Mrs. Sister-in-law to follow you, you can't go on so hard, Mrs. Sister-in-law was a famous talented woman in Shu, since I followed you either to do a stall, or firewood, rice, oil and salt, we are men to love their own women. ”
Sima Xiangru's face was a little red. Su Ren stretched: "I've run around, I'm tired, I'll ask Brother Sima here, I have to go back and rest!" ”
When he left the headquarters, Sima Xiangru was still standing stunned. The words just now came from a person who was more than twenty years younger than himself, which made Sima Xiangru a little in a trance. If it weren't for the master-servant relationship, Su Ren would have been more than enough to be Sima Xiangru's son. This is good, in turn to teach him a lesson, and he is speechless.
Su Ren ran out of the construction site as if he was running away, and looked back when he got on the horse, so as not to chase Sima Xiangru out and trouble him. How to say that he is only an eighteen-year-old child, Sima Xiangru is almost forty years old. Those words just now, it was like the elders training the juniors, Su Ren pretended to be in a posture, and recalled the leader's words in front of the great writer Sima Xiangru, and his heart was overjoyed.
The white horse knows that the master is like an arrow, and the hooves are fast, and it sounds good to step on the bluestone road. As soon as he turned into Dongxin Street, Huang Shisan suddenly stopped in front of Su Ren and pulled out his sword with a choked sound. The guards behind him swarmed up and surrounded Su Ren in the middle.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Su Ren didn't know why, and looked around with his eyes narrowed.
"Someone!" Huang Thirteen pointed to the front. In the snow not far away, a man with a straight waist knelt in the middle of the street, and the kneeling time was not short, and the snow under his knees melted.
Su Ren glanced twice: "Who?" ”
Huang Shisan leaned in Su Ren's ear and said, "It's like Boss Xun." ”
Su Ren frowned: "What is he doing here?" Didn't you arrange it? ”
Huang Shisan's face turned red and he didn't say anything for a long time. Ah Xun on the opposite side made a move, bowed to Su Ren's horse team to the end, and almost fell on the road.
Although Dongxin Street is a small street, there are rich businessmen living here, and they all walk from here during the Chinese New Year, whether they go out or go home, and there are many servants and families behind them. Who didn't know Su Ren's horse team, and some people who happened to pass by looked at Su Ren and Ah Xun who was kneeling in front of Su Ren's horse strangely.
"What is he doing here? Threaten me with a provocative relationship with me? ”
Huang Shisan still didn't dare to answer, but his eyes glared at Ah Xun viciously.
Su Ren thought for a while: "Send someone to bring him back and let him come at night!" ”
"No!" Huang Shisan hurriedly agreed, turned over and dismounted and walked towards Ah Xun.
