Chapter 071: Thriving

Xu Shu glared when he heard this: "Fifty gold is a lot!" Fifty gold is enough to recruit 5,000 people, and with your current layout and the restaurant business in Luoyang, you will soon accumulate a lot of gold. You can't recruit too many people at once, and you can't recruit much money in the early stage. ”

Chen Gong also nodded and said: "Changwen, don't say a few thousand Danyang guards, even if there are hundreds, it is also very remarkable!" Don't miss out on the best time to do so. No one else can do this, you can! It must be difficult to recruit in the early stage, and I estimate that thirty gold is enough. In the middle and late stages, the restaurant in Xuzhou will be able to afford this money. ”

Chen Qun nodded when he heard this: "Okay, then recruit, even if we don't use it, we can't cheapen others." Isn't it just an extra group of people to eat? We can afford it! It's a big deal to wait for the world to prosper, and then send them back. ”

Xu Shu and Chen Gong looked at each other and smiled when they heard this, and neither of them said anything, neither of them understood why Chen Qun still had such confidence in the Han Dynasty.

After Chen Qun made a decision, he said to Wei Dadao who was standing aside: "Wei Da, you have worked hard, I will give you forty gold, you take the gold to Xuzhou to find Guan 18 and Wei Ba, and let them assist you in recruiting Danyang guards in Danyang County, I will not send you the rest of the manpower, if you need it, you can directly draw from the brothers who were sent there to buy silk and cotton, but after you recruit people, use the Danyang guards you recruited." ”

"Subordinates take orders!" Wei Da clenched his fists and took the gold from Chen Qun's hand and turned to leave.

After Wei Da left, Chen Qun said speechlessly: "How do I feel like a poor egg now, and I can't save gold on me, I can spend as much as I want." ”

Xu Shu smiled when he heard this: "Money is used to serve people, otherwise what would you do with so much money?" ”

Chen Gong also bowed his head and said: "Changwen, don't look at the fact that you have spent a lot of money now, but I dare to guarantee that you will definitely not regret it in the future!" And it may not be too long. You may not know it, but now that wars have broken out in many places, the world is getting more and more chaotic! ”

Chen Qun nodded without saying a word.

At this time, Guan Shi came in and hugged his fist at Chen Qun and said, "Family master, I heard that you are back, so my subordinates hurriedly came to find you." The necessary facilities for the ironshop have been built, but there is no iron ore yet, so I don't know where we can get iron ore? ”

Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "I have solved this problem, we have to ask Mrs. Chen." ”

Chen Gong frowned when he heard this: "Changwen, don't be joking, I haven't taken office yet, where do you know where there is iron ore, if you know, even if you send your people to mine, I will definitely not stop it, and I will also provide you with official protection." ”

Chen Qun nodded when he heard this: "Okay, then thank you Chen Taishou." Guan 10, you select a group of masters who can distinguish iron ore, and then take them and a hundred Chen Jiawei to the mountains in Yanshi to search, and you will definitely find the location of iron ore. As soon as you find the iron ore, send someone to inform Chen Taishou, who will help you make some necessary preparations.

After Chen Taishou's preparations are completed, you can select a group of people from your home to mine iron ore, and then find a secluded road to transport the iron ore to the mountain city. ”

Guan Shi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Really, the head of the family!" There is iron ore in the territory of Yanshi? That's great! ”

Chen Qun nodded: "Yes, yes, there must be, and it is also a fairly large iron ore vein, you should look for it, don't worry, we are not in a hurry at this time." ”

"Subordinates receive orders! Subordinates say goodbye! Guan Shi clasped his fists at Chen Qun and turned to leave, the news that Chen Qun provided him was really exciting! With iron ore there is iron, and with iron you can do a lot of things! Guan Shi couldn't help but think in his heart, he knew Chen Qun's current predicament, so he was able to help Chen Qun solve some of the difficulties, Guan Shi was very happy, and Guan Shi also felt that he had found his value at home.

After Guan Shi left, Chen Gong looked at Chen Qun and smiled: "It's really yours, even the Yanshi knows that there is iron ore in the territory." ”

Chen Qun nodded: "If you go to more places, you will know a lot." ”

Chen Gong nodded, and then looked at Chen Qun: "Changwen, if there is nothing else, I will go to work tomorrow, do you think it's okay?" ”

Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "When Chen Taishou plans to take up the post, but it is up to Chen Taishou to decide for himself, how dare I interfere?" ”

"Hahaha......, Changwen, then let's talk about it." Chen Gong said with a smile.

After Chen Gong finished speaking, he continued: "Yuan Zhi, how about you take me to visit Xiashan City?" ”

Xu Shu nodded: "No problem, let's go now, let Changwen have a good rest." ”

After Xu Shu finished speaking, he left with Chen Gong.

Chen Qun touched his nose with his right hand after the two left, and began to think about what to do next.

Chen Qun didn't think much about it, he felt a scorching feeling from the emperor's divine order, and hurriedly took it out to see, but it was Huangfu Song who asked for a call, and after connecting, Huangfu Song said to Chen Qun with a deep face: "Changwen, the rebellion in the Sanfu area of Liangzhou is very serious, and Your Majesty sent me to Chang'an to guard it." ”

Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "Uncle, this is a good thing!" Guarding Chang'an is also a good messenger. By the way, uncle, is the Chen Ji Restaurant in Jizhou open? And my four righteous brothers, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, are all okay? ”

Huangfu Song shook his head slightly when he heard this: "Don't worry, the four of them are all fine, since you asked me to take care of the four of them a year ago, I have promoted the four of them exceptionally, and the four of them are now all captains in the army, and each of them is in charge of thousands of soldiers." Your four righteous brothers are also very good, all of them are good at leading soldiers, I really don't know how you dug them out of the army.

There are also those Chen Ji restaurants of yours, which have been opened in all the counties of Jizhou, and I heard that the business is not good, I really envy that you can find such a good industry. Don't worry, I've told your four brothers to take care of your restaurant. They all asked me to say hello to you. ”

Chen Qun sighed when he heard this: "Uncle, you are going to Chang'an, if you can bring the four of them, you can bring them all, they will become your right-hand man, especially the eldest brother Zhang He, who is definitely a wise general, with the four of them to assist you, you will feel very relaxed." ”

Huangfu Song shook his head when he heard this: "No! The four of them are all from Jizhou, and it is not good to take them to Liangzhou, and His Majesty also sent Dong Zhuo to Chang'an to help me, so I have no problem. ”

Chen Qun frowned when he heard this: "Uncle, I have a new master Huang Zhong, his archery skills are first-class in the world, why don't you let my master go to Chang'an with you?" He should also be a good leader of troops. ”

Huangfu Song smiled when he heard this: "Changwen, the surprise you gave your uncle is really getting worse and worse, but don't worry, the more assistants your uncle sees around you, the happier he is." You keep these hands for your own use, uncle believes in your eyesight, and the people who can be favored by you are definitely not simple. ”

Hearing this, Chen Qun said with a straight face: "Uncle, nephew is worried about your safety, after all, fighting with the Qianghu clan is not as difficult as fighting with us Han people, and that kind of difficulty must be very great." ”

Huangfu Song said with a straight face when he heard this: "You are very right! So my uncle won't keep his hand this time! ”

Chen Qun nodded when he heard this: "Okay then!" But uncle, you must be careful, if you need to contact me in time, I will take Chan Kar-wai to support you at any time. In addition, there is also a Chen Kee Restaurant in Chang'an, and you can also transfer manpower from there if you need to. There were five hundred Chen family guards there. ”

Huangfu Song smiled slightly: "Okay, uncle knows, you are really amazing!" actually opened a restaurant in Chang'an, it's not simple! Uncle will help you take care of the restaurant when you get there, okay, hang up if it's okay! ”

"Goodbye uncle! Hang up! Chen Qun said in a deep voice.

After ending the call with Huangfu Song, Chen Qun had an indescribable feeling that the Han Dynasty was on fire everywhere, if it was close to these few people to extinguish the fire, how could it be extinguished? Chen Qun couldn't help but think about how Liu Tao was prepared, but Chen Qun felt that he couldn't urge, he believed that Liu Tao would definitely act after he was fully prepared.

Five days passed in a hurry, Huang Zhong still taught the guards on Shaomu Mountain and Chen Kar-wai to practice archery every day, and Chen Qun also insisted on practicing martial arts every day, but he still did not practice the true qi of the inner family.

In the evening of that day, the three Chen Kar-wai quickly ran up the mountain to find Chen Qun and hugged his fists and said: "Family master, good news, the ten stewards have successfully found the iron ore vein in Yanshi, and the three subordinates have been specially ordered to come back and report." ”

Chen Qun was overjoyed when he heard this: "Okay! That's great! Great work, brothers! Did any brothers go to report to Chen Taishou? ”

"Yes!" Chan Kar-wai hugged his fists.

Chen Qun nodded: "Okay, you go down and have a good rest." ”

"The head of the family, the ten stewards asked us to bring five thousand brothers over to mine a batch of iron ore and come back. Unbeknownst to you, the iron ore there is all open-air and has a high iron content. That's why the ten stewards hurriedly transferred people over. ”

Chen Qun nodded when he heard this: "Okay!" You go to Guan Jiu to transfer manpower, and tell the bearded man that he will transfer the guards of a thousand mountain cities to the mine to guard the mine. One hundred of you Chan Kar-wai returned home to continue training. A thousand guards from home over there are enough. ”

"Subordinates take orders!" The three Chan Kar-wai clasped their fists at Chen Qun and left excitedly.

Chen Qun smiled slightly when he learned that the iron ore finally had news: "Okay! It's great to have iron ore! Coupled with the batch of cotton sent back by Yanzhou Weishi, the shops at home can finally start production, which is really good. ”

February passed like this, at the beginning of March, Guan 13 sent one hundred and fifty gold restaurant operating profits from Luoyang, Chen Qun couldn't help but smile after getting the gold: "Hahaha......, the days of fear have finally passed!" ”

Xu Shu on the side smiled when he heard this: "Changwen, your happy days are still ahead!" Now it is estimated that in addition to Jiaozhou, the restaurants in various states have started to open one after another, and after they all turn around, the gold sent to the mountain city every month is estimated to add up to more than a thousand gold, as well as a steady stream of cotton and silk, I really envy you. ”

Chen Qun shook his head when he heard this: "Senior brother, the account can't be calculated like this, you have to see real money to count, maybe it is not good to say which state's business is not satisfactory." ”

Xu Shu waved his hand when he heard this: "Okay!" Secretly enjoy yourself in your heart! I estimate that Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, Yuzhou, Qingzhou, the profits of these seven states will not be much worse than that of Sili, and Bingzhou, Jizhou and Youzhou are slightly worse, and finally Liangzhou and Jiaozhou.

If it weren't for the war in Liangzhou, I estimate that the profit of the restaurant would be the same as that of Bingzhou. And Jizhou has always been wealthy, if it weren't for the big war last year, the profit of the restaurant can definitely be compared with Si Li.

The food in your restaurant is now eaten from north to south, and I don't believe you'll lose money! It depends on how much you earn and how little you earn. ”

Chen Qun smiled when he heard this: "Senior brother, don't be envious, when you really have money, I will buy you an official job." ”

Xu Shu waved his hand when he heard this: "I don't want to be an official, I just hope that you will have more money to help the poor people." ”

Hearing this, Chen Qun nodded and said, "Senior brother is right, this is what I have always wanted to do but failed to do. ”

Seeing this, Xu Shu smiled and said, "You kid didn't disappoint Senior Brother, Senior Brother didn't help you in vain." ”

"Hahaha......" Chen Qun and Xu Shu looked at each other and smiled.
