Chapter 53 Good Things Come in Pairs

Inside the house, Yan Jiakang finished writing the teaching materials of the lecture hall, and stretched his waist a little tiredly, when Shan Feng walked in and said: "Brother Ge, Ruiqing will let you go, and the shopkeeper Chen of the dyeing workshop wants to see you!" "I was going to Beer Hill, but I had a wish! You come with me! "What wish?" "You'll know when you go!" Yan Jiakang pretended to be mysterious, and the single peak was confused.

Early in the morning, the beer lodge was full of customers, and as the weather warmed, beer sales soared. In a private room, Yang Ruiqing accompanied a guest for a drink. The guest had a delicate complexion, a pair of eyes that were very bright, and he was about 20 years old. "Brother Yang, I didn't expect your luck to be so good that you could be appreciated by Lord Ge. Brother, a nobody, can he enter his eyes? ”

"Brother Chen, don't be presumptuous, where is your self-confidence in the past. Don't look young, Master Ge is a role model for my generation. He has great ambitions and is interested in investing and setting up factories, and there is no problem in helping him. "Brother Yang, my brother depends on you, I hope there will be a lot of good words." "Brother Chen, I guarantee that Master Ge will surprise you. He once said earnestly, there are too few people like you in Zhoucun, if there are a few more people who dare to think and dare to do, Zhoucun will undergo earth-shaking changes in a few years! ”

"That's what Lord Ge really said?" "What am I fooling you about, what Lord Ge has done is known to women and children, I sometimes wonder if this is a dream, why great luck has befallen me." "Brother Yang, you are hiding it deeply, it's too boring. During this time, I have been learning crafts in Henan, and I didn't expect such a change to happen in Zhoucun. There is a way that you will not die in great calamity, and there will be blessings in the future. "Brother Chen, the old man is gone, and the burden is on your shoulders, and you should show your skills."

"Shopkeeper Yang, Master Ge is here!" A subordinate came in to report. "Brother Chen, don't panic me to greet you!" "Ruiqing, the trade is hot again!" As soon as I met Ieyasu, I greeted him. "Brother Ge, the weather is getting warmer, and there are more and more people drinking beer, and in the morning, before waiting for the opening guests, they gather in front of the door. Shopkeeper Chen is waiting in the house, he wants to see you? "Ruiqing, let your friend wait a while, I heard that your sister was picked up by you!" "Yes, at the beginning, my father talked about wine and the old lady of the Cui family in the southern suburbs town, and he was drunk and married with his belly, and later my sister reached the age of marriage, and the Cui family asked for a marriage."

Yang Ruiqing sighed and said: "My sister's life is very bitter, I didn't expect that the son of the Cui family is a tuberculosis ghost, and he married his sister for Chongxi." On the night of the wedding, the son of the Cui family died with a whimper, and the poor sister was widowed for 8 years. This time, I gave the Cui family a sum of money, and the sister of the Qian family was relieved. My sister is still young, and I don't want her to be widowed. "A few days ago, Shuzhen accompanied your sister to the house to send a show, and Mrs. was full of praise for your sister, can I see your sister?" "My lord, my sister has never seen the world, I'm afraid you will laugh!"

After a while, Shuzhen walked in with Yang Yuhuan, Yang Yuhuan lowered her eyebrows and saluted, looking very restrained. Yan Jiakang stared at the woman in front of him, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a melon seed face and a pair of beautiful big eyes with a slight sadness, which supported a different kind of beauty. Wen Qing is right, Yang Yuhuan is indeed a great beauty. Yang Yuhuan's situation was informed by Wen Qing, and it was suggested that Shan Feng be a matchmaker.

Yan Jiakang peeped at Shan Feng, and saw Shan Feng staring at Yang Yuhuan with a sluggish expression, and Yang Yuhuan blushed and heartbeat when he saw it. Yan Jiakang has a bottom in his heart. Shuzhen accompanied Yang Yuhuan away, and Shan Feng's eyes followed. "Shan Feng, how is the girl from Yuhuan!" Yan Jiakang went straight in, and Shan Feng came back to his senses to cover up: "What's the matter?" "Okay, don't pretend, what is love at first sight, your expression tells me everything!" "Ruiqing, am I willing to let Miss Yuhuan marry Shan Feng?"

"Brother Ge's good intentions, how can Ruiqing not allow it, but I don't know if Brother Shan is willing?" "Brother Yang, the girl in Yuhuan is pitiful, I'm a rude man, I don't know what the girl in Yuhuan thinks!" Singlet is unabashed. "Brother can call the shots, and my sister will entrust it to you!" Yang Ruiqing hugged his fists and was grateful! "Brother Yang, this matter must be agreed by your sister, and I am a matchmaker worthy of my name." Yang Ruiqing said with a smile: "Brother Ge, don't worry, my sister won't have any doubts." ”

After a while, Yang Ruiqing and Shuzhen walked out. Shuzhen said: "Brother Yang, my sister is waiting for you inside!" "Haha! So it was decided, choose a good day and an auspicious day, and I personally officiated for their wedding. Ruiqing, your guests are probably in a hurry! ”

Walking into the private room, a man in his twenties came into view, and Yan Jiakang felt a little familiar. "The grass people are Tongtong and Chen Shouting, the shopkeeper of the dyeing workshop, meet the adults!" Yan Jiakang was stunned when he heard this, so familiar with the name. Dingqing observed, not to mention that this person is somewhat similar to the protagonist of "The Great Dyeing Workshop", no wonder he is familiar. Could it be that there is destined to be an intersection in the dark? For a while, Yan Jiakang sighed that his luck was too good, it was not God's arrangement.

The scene was a little embarrassing, and Yan Jiayasu suddenly realized that he had embarrassed the guests. "Shopkeeper Chen, I'm very sorry for the gaffe. The official once knew an old man who looked similar to Chen's shopkeeper, so he was distracted. After sitting down, Ruiqing said happily: "Brother Ge, Brother Chen and I want to be good." Nowadays, Zhou Village is thriving, Brother Chen is not willing to be lonely, he wants to expand the dyeing business, and hopes that adults will help! "Shopkeeper Chen, since you are Ruiqing's friend and my friend, what do you need me to help you with?" Chen Shouting's eyes lit up when he heard this, and said: "Lord Ge is really worthy of his reputation for being an official!" ”

"The grass people learned that the adults had extraordinary vision and hoarded a large amount of land, and begged the adults to give up a piece of land, I wonder if the adults could not bear to cut their love?" "Shopkeeper Chen, this official wants to hear your thoughts on how to expand the scale of the dyeing workshop!" Chen Shouting is fast-talking, talking, and determined to be the boss of the dyeing workshop. Yan Jia Kang listened silently, and Ruiqing seemed to be impressed by Chen Shouting's mouth. But it was not unexpected, Yan Jiakang said indifferently after listening: "Shopkeeper Chen, is it interesting to be the boss of Zhou Village?" Chen Shouting was stunned.

Yan Jiakang said with a smile: "There is a way that the sky is so big and the people's hearts are big, and it is too small to be the boss of Zhou Village, why not be the boss of Shandong, the boss of China, and the boss of the world?" Chen Shouting heard that he bowed and said: "The grass people are stupid, please give me advice!" "Hundreds of years ago, our Chinese nation once stood out from the crowd, when Chinese porcelain and silk swept the world, and that was our well-known business card. At that time, the world was barter, but the foreigners had nothing to trade with us, so they could only buy our porcelain and silk with real money on ships. ”

"Our ancestors made us proud of what a glorious era was, but we are outdated in modern times. It is not the incompetence of our Chinese nation, but our own reasons. Now that we have opened the skylight to the world, we must not miss this opportunity. Chen Shouting and Yang Ruiqing stared at Yan Jiakang's good eyes, as if they were listening to the book of heaven. Today's world is changing with each passing day, and it is hard to imagine how wonderful the outside world is. In a word, what foreigners can do, we can not only do, but also do better. ”

"My lord, the grass people are stupid and don't understand what they mean!" Chen Shouting was stunned. "Shopkeeper Chen, your ambition is understandable, but you can't keep your eyes on Zhoucun, you have to look at Shandong, the whole country and even the world. Since the shopkeeper Chen wants to make a big difference, the official will help him. In this way, I provide land and invest in the purchase of foreign machinery, how about you and I cooperate? "My lord, the grass people can't ask for it, and one percent of the shares are enough." "What are you kidding, fifty-fifty!" "My lord, this can't be helped, it's already a natural benefit for grass people to get a share!" "Ruiqing, isn't Shopkeeper Chen too hypocritical!"

"Brother Chen, Master Ge is a golden tongue, what are you hesitating about?" "My lord, the grass people are smeared with liver and brain, and they will never give up their lives to be cattle and horses for adults!" ", although I'm an investor, but you don't interfere with the transaction, understand?" "The grass people understand!" "Next year, Ruiqing is going to set up a textile factory, and he weaves cloth and you dye cloth, which is a perfect match! It's better to hit the next day, let's go to the site, if Brother Chen is in the picture, start construction immediately! Chen Shouting opened his mouth wide and was stunned by happiness.

After a while, the group came to the bank of the river. "This is a river flat, it does not occupy private land, and it is easy to get water," Yan Jiayasu pointed out. "My lord, this place is close to the river, but this land is too big!" "It's not too big but it's too small, not only to build a factory here, but also to use a steam engine, and in the future, to build a power plant!" Chen Shouting was thoughtful. "Shopkeeper Chen, don't look at the inconspicuous land here, no matter how much money others want to buy, I won't buy it. Ruiqing, next year's textile mill will be built over there! "My lord, I also like that piece of land, with such a large-scale investment, do we have enough money?"

"Do you know what it means to borrow a chicken to lay eggs? At the beginning of the year, the German Lihe Foreign Bank was going to open a branch in Zhoucun, and I would take the lead, and Ruiqing you would come out to negotiate a loan with the German Foreign Bank, buy machines and steam engines through the Germans, and hire foreign technicians. "Shopkeeper Chen, my decision is like this, your dyeing workshop is called Dahua Printing and Dyeing Factory, and it will open at the end of the construction now, what are you hesitating about?" "My lord, me!" Chen Shouting choked up a little.

"Aren't you two gentlemen?" Ruiqing and Chen Shouting looked at each other and couldn't help but hug each other excitedly.
