Chapter 50: The Eve (Part 3)
Xue Ju, one of the four surnames in Hedong, is a side branch of the Xue family in Fenyin.
In his early years, he went to Lanzhou with his father from Fenyin, and with the energy of the Xue family, he engaged in some smuggling business. Illegal salt, steel, and other items that should be in short supply for the Hu people are all commodities sold by the Xue family. Then, from the Tuyuhun people and the people of the Western Regions, they exchanged for horses, spices and other goods needed in the Central Plains. Once and again, you can often earn a lot of money.
When Xue Ju became an adult, he relied on the shade of the door and embarked on a career in office. Now you are Lanzhou Sima, which is equivalent to the second most powerful figure in the Lanzhou military.
This time, he came into contact with Zhang Zhongjian, mainly for the spice business in the Western Regions.
The production of spices in the Western Regions, especially those from Persia, was quite popular in the Central Plains.
Since the Wei and Jin dynasties, the children of the gate valve family like to wear sachets. One of the most famous men in history, that is, another hero in the Battle of Weishui, Xie An's nephew Xie Xuan, was extremely fascinated by wearing sachets when he was young.
Especially in Gangnam, this kind of atmosphere is still popular today.
The silk of Jiangnan is a cherished item of the tribal leaders of the grassland; The spices of the Western Regions are the favorite of the Jiangnan family.
Zhang Zhongjian went to Lanzhou this time to open up this trade route.
Of course, he also needs a strong ally, and Xue Ju is undoubtedly the most suitable.
It just so happened that Xue Ju's eldest son, Xue Rengao, was about to become an adult. So Xue Ju pondered and asked Xue Rengao to return to his hometown in Fenyin and enter the clan school, and then through the recommendation of the state, he could enter the official school. Xue Ju has a lifelong career as a horseman, and he doesn't want Xue Rengao to follow in the footsteps again. It's just that Xue Rengao's surname is violent, if it weren't for Zhang Zhongjian, maybe he would have caused trouble.
"Yanqing, I heard that there is a Xiongji shop in Luoyang, which is related to Zheng Weng?"
After everyone went through a commotion, Zhang Zhongjian pulled Yan Qing aside and said his intention.
This person doesn't look vulgar, but he does have a seven-trick exquisite heart. The talent is not bad, but it is a pity that his appearance is surprising, and he does not meet the four conditions of the family's selection of talents. Among them, the biggest problem is the 'body'.
It is necessary to pay attention to appearance and manners.
Zhang Zhongjian is not bad in speech, calligraphy, and intelligence, but it is this appearance that is inferior.
Therefore, Zhang Zhongjian can only be a businessman, but cannot embark on a career in office.
Zheng Yanqing smiled!
He also likes to cooperate with Zhang Zhongjian, but he went to the door, and Zhang Zhongjian found his door, which has a different meaning.
Since Zhang Zhongjian opened his mouth, Yanqing had the upper hand.
"Brother Zhang, I won't hide it from you, the Xiongji shop was opened by my grandfather in the name of an old friend."
Yan Qing had already practiced various ways to deal with Zhang Zhongjian in his mind. But after thinking about it, I feel that when dealing with people like Zhang Zhongjian, don't play too much scheming. This person's surname is bold, so the best thing to do is to go straight.
Zhang Zhongjian also smiled......
"Little brother Yanqing, it looks like you've been waiting for me to come to the door for a long time!"
"Third Brother Zhang, the little brother is looking forward to you, but he wants to wear it."
Neither of them hid it and cut straight to the point.
Zhang Zhongjian coughed lightly, and his thinking immediately changed. He heard what happened to Zheng Shi'an's ancestors, although this pair of ancestors and grandsons saved the day, but they would not have no opinion on the Zheng family. Now it seems that Zheng Shi'an is really going to read.
It's just that Zheng Shi'an is still attached to Zheng Dashi now, and it is too obvious that he is not good.
So, he needed a cover-up, so there was the Xiongji Shop. But this cover is not safe, so he needs a bigger cover-up.
"Say, what conditions."
"All the goods of Xiongji can be handed over to Zhang Sange to operate.
Zhang Sange accounts for 40%, the ancestors account for 30%, and the old neighbors of Tianjin Bridge account for the last 30%. However, externally, it is necessary for Zhang Sange to come forward and accept Xiongji in its entirety. Privately, we set up a note and distribute the benefits accordingly. ”
Zhang Zhongjian frowned when he heard this.
"How much do I need to pay?"
Zheng Yanqing stretched out a finger.
"A thousand?"
"Hahaha, Third Brother Zhang, is Xiongji's business only a thousand yuan?
You must know that there are 1,253 county towns under the rule of the Great Sui and a population of 9 million households. According to one pair of scissors per household, that is nine million scissors. Fifty dollars for a pair of scissors, how much is nine million scissors? This account, Third Brother Zhang must have calculated it.
And that's just the sales of next-grade scissors......
There are also seven products of cultivation, how many readers are there in the world? ”
"That being said, the account can't be counted like that."
"Third Brother Zhang, a fixed price, 10,000 yuan. If you invest 10,000 yuan, you can get 40% of the benefits of these things, which is not much.
In addition, I have some gadgets, maybe Third Brother Zhang will be interested. ”
As he spoke, Yan Qing led Zhang Zhongjian to the study building.
He first placed the tangram in front of Zhang Zhongjian, and then pulled out a scroll from the bookcase.
"This thing is called Tangram, but it may sound a bit cheesy, and Brother Zhang can name it himself. I've tried it, and Brother Du is obsessed with it, and it can be said that it is suitable for all ages. If you are interested, Brother Zhang, you can do it. ”
Zhang Zhongjian took it, and after fiddling with it a few times, he suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"How do you count this?"
"You'll be in charge, and I'll take 30% of the profits."
"No, at most one and a half, I can't afford to eat more."
"Twenty and a half, I'd rather not do it if it is less."
"Two, two...... If you can, you can do it, and if you don't do it, forget it. ”
Yan Qing and Zhang Zhongjian had a lot of bargaining, and Zhang Zhongjian at this time had already understood that what was the seventh grade of cultivation and what the third grade of scissors were all the ideas of the little boy in front of him, and Zheng Shi'an was just shielding him from the wind and rain in front.
Now, Zheng Yanqing needed a bigger umbrella, so Zhang Zhongjian came.
"And this, Third Brother Zhang take a look, are you interested?"
Yan Qing said and handed the scroll in his hand to Zhang Zhongjian.
It is impressively recorded how to boil white sugar......
"You ...... Where did it come from? ”
Zhang Zhongjian immediately saw the value of this secret recipe, raised his head, and glared at Zheng Yanqing, "Give me this recipe, 100,000 yuan, how about it?" ”
"Hehe, Third Brother Zhang, I am a scholar, and I may have a great future in the future.
What do you want this money for? If you are interested, Brother Zhang, I can give you this recipe, how about it? ”
This recipe is worth 10,000 gold!
Zhang Zhongjian wanted to buy it at a price of 100,000 yuan.
Because he can see that the benefits in this are extremely amazing. Who knows, Zheng Yanqing doesn't want it, but also gives it to him.
Is he embarrassed to ask for it?
If he is embarrassed to ask for it, Zhang Zhongjian will not be Zhang Zhongjian.
"I can give you twenty and a half percent of the benefits every year, and if I have more, I'm afraid I won't be able to make up my mind."
"No problem!"
Zheng Yanqing's purpose in doing this is to tie the Zhang family in Wu County to him, and then become a backer behind him.
As for how much will be the benefit of two and a half?
He didn't know......
However, he knew that the recipe in his hand was enough to make Zhang Zhongjian the richest man in the south without any problem.
His head was a little messy, and Zhang Zhongjian tried to calm his thoughts.
"Yanqing, how old are you?"
"Oh, eight!"
Zhang Zhongjian suddenly laughed, "Are you really only eight years old?" Why do I always think you're a wicked? ”
"Ah, this one...... Brother Du also said.
Hehe, it's just that if this demon can bring benefits to the third brother, the third brother must be very happy to accept it. ”
When Zhang Zhongjian heard this, he laughed dumbly.
Suddenly there was a little more mystery and even fear in my heart.
He thought for a moment, and then said, "Little Brother Yanqing, I also know that your ancestors and grandchildren are in an embarrassing situation. Well, if he needs my help, just send someone to tell me. The Zhang family in Wu County may not be as good as the Zheng family, but when it is critical, they can also speak. ”
Zheng Yanqing stretched out his hand with a smile, Zhang Zhongjian also stretched out his hand, and the two snapped and high-fived three times.
The ancients high-fived the oath more than the written contract.
Zheng Yanqing actually didn't lose anything, but Zhang Zhongjian relied on these to strengthen the strong capital based on the Zhang family.
Two people, so to speak, take what they need......
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Shiji, you went to Zhuyuan in the past two days, what can you see Zheng Yanqing doing?"
The night before the agreed deadline, Yan Shigu and Zheng Renji pulled Xu Shiji into the study and asked Zheng Yanqing about his condition.
Although Zheng Renji and Yan Qing are awkward, it is An Yuantang's face after all.
Wang Tong slapped Zheng Yanqing's face, to put it bluntly, he slapped An Yuantang's face and Zheng Renji's face.
How can this be accepted by Zheng Renji?
On the surface, he ignored Yanqing's affairs, but in private, he was still very concerned. Otherwise, he would not agree to Xu Shiji and Zheng Hongyi running to Zhuyuan every day. No matter what he thinks of Zheng Shi'an, he attaches great importance to Yanqing's talent.
Xu Shiji thought for a while, "Yanqing didn't do anything.
Yesterday afternoon, he was still playing with us. Later, Zhang Zhongjian of the Zhang family in Wu County came and gave Yan Qing a horse...... Hehe, that horse is really good, Yan Qing still bit the horse's ear to tame the horse. Today, when Hongyi and I went in the afternoon, I heard from the maid at his house that he and Brother Du Ruhui crossed the river early in the morning to go to Xiangshan Temple.
Hongyi and I waited for a while, and when we saw that he didn't come back, we came back......"
"Is he nervous then?"
Xu Shiji shook his head, "No, it looks quite normal, and he said that after a while, he and Brother Du will go into the mountains to explore the book monument." ”
Yan Shigu and Zheng Renji glanced at each other and let Xu Shiji go.
"This son has the style of a general."
Yan Shigu smiled: "If it were me, maybe I would be very nervous...... Hehe, big brother, don't worry about it. You see that Yan Qing is not quite relaxed, maybe as he said, he has already made a bamboo in his chest. ”
Jung In-gi let out a long breath and smiled bitterly.
"Of course he is not nervous, if he loses, it will be my Zheng family who will lose face."
"Well, you can't say that.
That Wang Tong is the same age as me, regardless of the elder to bully a young child, this move is in the eyes of everyone, if I were him, I would leave Luoyang with my bags now. To be honest, even if Wang Tong wins, it will be harmless to the Zheng family.
He disregarded his identity, and this faux pas came first. ”
Zheng Renji nodded, hesitated, but suddenly asked, "Brother Xian, what are Zheng Yanqing's chances of winning?" ”
Yan Shigu was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he smiled bitterly.
"If I say, less than 20%!"
"Twenty percent?"
Zheng Renji rubbed his cheeks, "According to what you say, I think I'm going to fall asleep tonight." ”
"Hehe, it's not just that you can't sleep, presumably at this moment, there will be many people in Luoyang City like you, who can't sleep all night."
After Yan Shigu finished speaking, he walked to the window.
He stretched out his hand, pushed open the window, looked at the darkness outside, and said to himself: Although it is only twenty percent, it is not hopeless......
