Chapter Eighty-Seven: Xie Jinwu's Dream of Getting Rich

Xie Jinwu returned home and said to his father Xie Kun: "Dad, how much silver do we have in our house?" ”

Xie Kun said: "Jin Wu, what do you want silver for?" ”

Xie Jinwu said bluntly: "I want the silver to go to Freezer Street to buy a few shops!" ”

Xie Kun's eyes widened when he heard this: "What, you want to buy a store, and you have to buy a few, are you kid crazy." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Xie Jinwu said: "Dad, I'm not crazy, I do want to go to Freezer Street to buy a few shops." Get the money out of nowhere. ”

Although Xie Kun is very rich, he is a big landowner, and his main income is the rent source of more than 3,000 acres of grain fields in the suburbs of Bianliang. ”

Xie Jinwu said: "Dad, your concept has long been backward, the land income is stable, but the income is small, it is not as fast as doing business." ”

Xie Kun said disdainfully: "If you come quickly, you will lose quickly, what if you accidentally smash it in?" ”

Xie Jinwu said with a smile: "Dad, you are worrying about the sky, and besides, I didn't buy a store to open my own store to do business, but wanted to sell it when the house appreciated, and then the silver would flow to my home like the water of the Bianhe River." ”

Xie Kun waved his hand again and again: "This is even more unworkable, how much silver is needed to buy and sell houses." ”

Xie Jinwu begged: "Dad, there is output only if there is input, you haven't bought a house yet, how do you know it won't work!" ”

Xie Kun said angrily: "What does it mean that there is input to output, have you used less money to study over the years, but for two consecutive years, you went to participate in the scientific examination, but you failed every year." ”

Hearing what his father said, Xie Jinwu blushed and said: "Dad, why don't you open that pot and mention that pot, yes, I have failed for two consecutive years, but it's not that I haven't worked hard enough, but it's a bad fate, if you don't believe it, just wait and see, look at this year's autumn exam, I have to take a top spot for you." ”

Xie Kun sneered: "Hmph, when you are admitted to the top prize, the sun has to come out of the west." ”

Xie Kun's wife heard the two of them talking, her voice gradually became higher, and all of them were red-faced, and hurriedly ran out of the house and said: "Look at the two of you, the old one is not old, the small one is not small, how can it be related to the scientific examination when talking about buying a store!" Let's not say a word! With such a loud voice, he is not afraid to make the neighbors laugh. As he spoke, he turned around and asked Xie Jinwu: "Son, you too, you can't read that book anymore, why do you think of buying a store again." It's really not motivated. ”

Xie Jinwu hurriedly helped his mother sit down and said: "Mother, the child is not unmotivated, the reason why I have to buy a store is that I have a long-term plan, and the ultimate purpose is also to glorify the ancestors and restore the scenery of our Xie family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty." ”

Speaking of the Eastern Jin Dynasty's prominent families Xie Shi, Xie Xuan, Xie Lingyun and others who have a place in Chinese history, but Xie Jinwu's generation is not at all compatible with others, and the reason why he said this is far-fetched to his father.

Although Xie Kun is a local tyrant and has not read any books, he still knows a little about the Xie family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Then he said angrily: "Hmph, you kid also wants to worship the prime minister one day, just dreaming of marrying a daughter-in-law there and thinking about beautiful things." ”

Xie Jinwu smiled indifferently and said, "Dad, you really don't look at people in the cracks of the door and flatten me." I can't think of it, I can't do it, maybe I'll really have to get the prime minister of the dynasty to do it that day. ”

Xie Kun sneered: "Hmph, you can dream!"

Xie Jinwu said: "Cut, how do you know that I am dreaming, my teacher Wang Qinruo is now the assistant of the court, and being the prime minister is just around the corner, and when Wang Lao sits in the position of the prime minister, it is not a logical thing to carry me." ”

Xie Kun's wife heard this, and slapped her face and said, "Master, our children are right, maybe our family's ancestral tomb will really be smoking, and there will be a master." ”

Xie Kun was also a little moved when he heard this, so he softened his tone and said: "Whether you are a prime minister or a prefect, what does this have to do with you buying a store?" ”

As soon as Xie Jinwu heard his father's tone soften, he sat down and said, "Dad, I know that it is not easy for you to save that silver through your hard work in this life, but although the money you earn from renting out the fields comes steadily, it is also too slow. During the Warring States Period, LΓΌ Buwei once said that the profit of plowing the land is ten times, the profit of doing business is a hundred times, and the profit of establishing the king of a country is ten thousand times. ”

Although Xie Kun is a local tyrant, he has also heard the story of Lu Buwei, nodded and said: "Well, what you said also has some truth, with your diligence and studiousness, smart and clever, you may really be able to realize your wishes and glorify the lintel of our Xie family." ”

Xie Jinwu said: "Dad, you know every day that you are worried about the harvest of your thousands of acres of land, and you know there that only good learning cannot be a big official, and you must have money as a backing." ”

Xie Kun said disapprerovingly: "It's hard to say that money is backing, if you really have to find a way, just take the silver and go some, let's talk about it in our family, your father and I have also accumulated more than 5,000 taels of silver over the years." ”

Xie Jinwu laughed and said: "Haha, Dad, you say that you are a local tyrant, you still don't want to hear it, five thousand taels of silver is a huge wealth in your eyes, but what is it in the eyes of those ministers in the court?" ”

Xie Kun's eyes widened in surprise and said, "Ah, that's a lot of silver." ”

Xie Jinwu said: "If there are not tens of thousands of taels of silver, is it still called wealth!" ”

Xie Kun said dejectedly: "Son, don't dream of being a prefect, prime minister, we have a lot of silver to do." ”

Xie Jinwu enlightened Xie Kun and said: "Dad, I didn't say that you should take out tens of thousands of taels of silver, besides, I really asked you for tens of thousands of taels of silver, do you have it?" ”

Xie Kun said: "That's right, I can't sell the fields left by my ancestors, that's the foundation of our family's survival." ”

Xie Jinwu said: "Dad, that's why I asked you to take out the cash at home and go to the freezer street to buy a store. ”

Xie Kun was still suspicious: "Son, these five thousand taels of silver are all the money of our family, you guarantee that you can double your income when you invest in and out?" ”

In order to make up his mind, Xie Jinwu boasted: "Dad, of course, let me tell you a truth, Wang Qinruo said that many ministers in the court have gone to Freezer Street to buy houses, just waiting for the appreciation of the land in the future to make a lot of money!" If you're hesitating, I'm afraid you'll be three autumns late. ”

Xie Kun stomped his foot and gritted his teeth when he heard this, and said, "Since the ministers of the court have all gone there to buy houses, it must be right." Well, you can buy a shop with the money! Anyway, this silver is left for you, and if you are defeated, you will not be able to complain about me and your mother when you beg on the street. ”

Xie Jinwu said: "Dad, you can do it!" The son is not lacking in heart, how can he take the silver to the water. ”

Xie Kun said: "Okay, then you go to the backyard with me." ”

Xie Jinwu followed his father to the backyard, Xie Kun pointed to a big water tank and said, "Come on, let's remove this big tank." ”

The father and son made a lot of effort to move the water tank aside, Xie Kun pointed to a large stone slab under the water tank and said, "Son, all the money in our family is here!" Take it all! ”

Xie Jinwu bent down and lifted the big bluestone slab hard, only to see a cellar more than one person deep under the slate, and there were three large vats in the cellar, which contained white silver.

Xie Yuanwu looked at the silver in the three large vats, turned around and ran out into the street, stopped the three coolie porters and said, "Come, come in with me, pick up some things and go to Freezer Street." So saying, he led the three porters to the backyard, and asked them to carry the silver from the cellar, put it in a burden, and carry it to the house sales office in the Mixc Garden on Freezer Street.

As soon as he entered the door of the sales office, Xie Jinwu shouted to Hu Ge who greeted him proudly: "The big customer is here, go and call your shopkeeper." ”

Hu Ge said: "I am the shopkeeper here." ”

Xie Jinwu looked Hu Ge up and down a few times and said, "I heard that the big shopkeeper here is a man named Ding Qian, how can he come out with an impostor." ”

Hu Ge said: "I am the shopkeeper here. ”

Xie Jinwu said disdainfully: "What is the shopkeeper?" I'm sorry, I'm going to make a big deal, I'm afraid you can't be the master of the shopkeeper, hurry up and find the shopkeeper, otherwise, I'll leave. ”

Hu Ge had no choice but to say to Qiu Ju: "Qiu Ju, hurry up and invite the big shopkeeper." Tell him that a big customer is coming. ”

Qiu Ju hurriedly walked out of the sales office, trotted all the way to Ding Qian's office and said, "Shopkeeper Ding, there is a big customer here, and I don't want to trade until I see you." ”

Ding Qian nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and meet this big customer." ”

Ding Qian walked into the sales office with Qiu Ju, and saw a young man dressed as a scholar sitting on a chair drinking tea, so he stepped forward and said: "Guest officer, I am the big shopkeeper here, I don't know what you have to say, what kind of apartment type to buy, whether to buy a store or a residence." ”

Xie Jinwu said: "My name is Xie Jinwu, and I don't have a few spare money at home, and I put it there, so I thought of you coming to the Vientiane Garden to buy a few shops and do some business to support my family." ”

When Ding Qian heard Xie Jinwu's three words, he was secretly surprised, because he had heard the story of "Yang Jiajiang" in the 21st century, and knew that there was a Xie Jinwu who dared to smash the plaque of the Yang family in Tianbo Mansion, could this person be that Xie Jinwu.

Xie Jinwu saw the surprised look on Ding Qian's face, then put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Why, you know someone Xie." ”

Ding Qian hurriedly diverted the topic and said: "No, no, how can a small businessman like me know a hero like Gongzi." As he spoke, he pointed to the three burdens placed at Xie Jinwu's feet, and smiled: "I just watched you come to buy the store with three burdens, and I was very surprised." ”

Xie Jinwu smiled triumphantly: "Why, I've never seen such a big deal!" ”

Ding Qian nodded and said, "Yes, I have never seen a big patron like Gongzi." I don't know what kind of house Childe wants to buy. ”

Xie Jinwu pointed to the price list hanging on the wall and said: "When I came just now, I looked at the price of your house here, your shop here is 900 taels of silver per household, and I brought no more than 5,000 taels of silver today, let's do what we can and buy a five-account shop!" ”

Ding Qian listened and said: "Childe is really a cheerful person, good!" Then let Childe pick and choose! ”

Xie Jinwu nodded and said, "Okay!" Then I'll walk along the street and see that the store is better. ”

Ding Qian said: "Okay, I'll accompany my son to take a look." ”

The two came to the street and walked slowly to the east from the westernmost side, Xie Jinwu walked while pointing and selecting, and soon selected five stores, the two returned to the sales office, Ding Qian checked the silver two, two written sales contracts, and the bulk transaction was completed.

Xie Jinwu put the contract and the remaining five hundred taels of silver into a refined pear wood box that he picked up with his burden, held it in his arms and said, "Okay, I will leave the shopkeeper Ding, and I will invite you to drink when my shop opens that day." ”

Ding Qian smiled: "Thank you so much, son, I will definitely go to the party that day." ”

Ding Qian sent Xie Jinwu outside the door and said, "Son, go slowly!" ”

Xie Jinwu waved his hand and said, "Shopkeeper Ding, don't send it!" ”
