Chapter 101: May People Last

(Ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes!) Thank you book friends for my reward! )

When I returned home from the drunken spring building, it was already dusk. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Sisters-in-law Xie Chen and Shui Yun had already prepared the meal, and when Xiao Lori saw Xie Shen enter the house, she walked forward quickly and said, "Why did Childe come back now, we have been waiting for you for a long time." Hey, why is there such a big smell of alcohol on Childe? ”

Seeing that Xiao Lori looked disgusted, Xie Shenzhi was a little embarrassed.

"When I went to the county school, I met Brother Shouwen, so I went to the restaurant with a few friends to eat some wine and food."

"Well, no wonder."

Little Lori tilted her head to the side, her eyes blinked, and she said, "But I don't care about this, you have to eat a bowl of cooked food!" ”

Xie Shen walked to the inner hall with Xiao Lori, sat down around the table, and the sister-in-law Xie Chen cried with joy: "Bodhisattva bless, Xiaolang really won the show." Early tomorrow morning, the slave family will go to the Pushan Temple in the west of the city to make a vow. ”

The eldest brother Xie Fang reprimanded: "It's Xiaolang who is diligent and studious, what's the matter with the Bodhisattva?" ”

Sister-in-law Xie Chen glanced at him and said: "What are you talking about, if it weren't for the devout prayer of the slave family and the blessing of the merciful Guanyin Bodhisattva, how could Xiaolang have passed the exam so smoothly." ”

Xie Shen was made to cry and laugh and couldn't say anything, so he coughed lightly and said: "By the way, eldest brother, when I came back from the restaurant, I passed by the Feng family's bookstore, and I had already negotiated with the Feng shopkeeper, and he agreed to our family's shares." ”

"Really?"

Successfully led away from the topic by Xie Shen, Xie Fang asked happily.

Don't look at him saying that he is not qualified to manage the bookstore, but he is still looking forward to it.

His own Xiaolang has a chance, so he bought a bookstore for him to operate. In the future, if Xiaolang becomes a jinshi and becomes an official, his life will definitely be better.

Thinking of this, Xie Yi felt a warmth in his chest, and no matter how much he had been wronged and tired before, he felt that it was worth it.

It's not a family, it's not a door.

Sister-in-law Xie Chen also said: "Don't look at your eldest brother who can't beat a stuffy fart with a stick on weekdays, if you really want him to run a bookstore, maybe he can really make some things." ”

Xie Shen nodded, asking the eldest brother to run the bookstore was only the first part of his plan, the purpose of which was to exercise the eldest brother's business ability, which was more effective than being a small tea seller.

After that, Xie Shen also wanted to open a money bank in the name of his eldest brother. He was born in a poor family and has a thin foundation, and if he wants to accumulate wealth quickly, he can't be like those families, but must run the fastest profitable business.

After that, Xie Shen hadn't thought about it yet, but he didn't want to touch the imperial merchant for the time being.

As an imperial businessman, he looked at the scenery, but in fact, he broke his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach. Not only is it not profitable, but it also has to endure layers of difficulties from the government at all levels.

It is said that the most profitable weaving industry in Jiangnan is not the imperial businessman. The officials of the weaving bureau all opened their mouths, and more than half of the profits had to be swallowed by them.

If the service is not considerate, it is small to lose the imperial merchant qualification and smash the signboard, and it is likely to be bitten back and lose your life.

You must know that the Zhejiang silk woven by the imperial merchants is to be sent to the palace, and if there is a business trip, even the entire workshop is not enough to offset the crime.

Therefore, he is in a high position, and Xie Shen will not easily contact the imperial merchants before holding the authority. In Xie Shen's opinion, the imperial merchant shows his status, but at the moment he has not yet reached that status, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is the king.

"Tomorrow, the eldest brother can go directly to the bookstore, and if you don't know anything, you can ask Shopkeeper Feng. As for the tea shop, I asked Shui Yun to keep an eye on it first, and let's hire a few more guys in a few days. ”

"Slave family to go to the store? Childe, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. How can the slave family do such a thing......"

Hearing this, Shui Yunzhi's face was pale, and even the chopsticks in his hand almost fell.

The rules of men and women in the Great Defense, Three Obedience and Four Virtues were given by Zhu Xi in the Ming Dynasty, and Shui Yun also grew up in this environment, so he naturally couldn't accept Xie Shen's advanced ideas for a while.

Xie Shen realized the problem at this time, and said with a wry smile: "What you said is also reasonable, then let's hire a few guys tomorrow." But it's not enough to have a buddy, you're still going to be here as a female shopkeeper. ”

Although the profit of the tea shop is not as good as that of the bookstore, it is the eldest brother's life's work, and Xie Shen naturally can't bear to see the tea shop close. But people's energy is limited, and the eldest brother will have no time to be distracted if he puts his energy into the bookstore. Let Shui Yun come forward, firstly, because Xie Shen trusts her very much, and secondly, because Xie Shen values Shui Yun's meticulous work.

The tea shop is not profitable now because it sells local Yaojiang local tea.

If you enter some Qiantang Longjing, your income will definitely double. But that's not the point. What Xie Shen really wants Shui Yun to do is to upgrade the quality of tea and create a high-end brand concept.

In any era, it is true that scarcity is precious.

If you can control the quantity of tea sold, break it up into a whole, and carry out some packaging, there will definitely be a lot of roasted buns vying to buy.

Drinking tea is elegant, and if you write a few small poems on the wooden tea box, it will naturally add a lot of mood.

The target group for high-end tea sales is the gentlemen. These people may not have much talent, but the vassal elegance is certain, and this high-end tea is naturally very suitable. Tea boxes with poems written on them alone were enough for them to show off in front of their relatives and friends.

Of course, teapots and teacups can also be sold in the later stage. However, this needs to cooperate with some porcelain merchants, and Xie Shen has not yet found a good candidate.

"In that case, then the slave family will give it a try."

Shui Yun lowered her head and bit her lips lightly, which had a unique charm.

"Childe, what about me!"

Seeing that Shui Yun had an errand, Xiao Lori was naturally a little jealous, and asked loudly with her small chest straightened.

Xie Shen's heart sank, it seemed that there would indeed be a problem with the uneven end of this bowl of water.

"Don't worry, I can't forget you."

After a pause, Xie Shen said: "When I was in Hangzhou Mansion, I had nothing to do with Brother Shouren, so I tried to cook, but I didn't expect the dishes to taste very good. You're idle at home anyway, so why don't you come and learn how to cook with me? Of course, the sister-in-law can also point fingers. ”

This is not only Xiao Lori, but even the eldest brother Xie Fang and sister-in-law Xie Chen all looked at Xie Shen with puzzled eyes.

Xie Shen's heart was depressed. In his previous life, his cooking skills were superb, even if he couldn't go to a five-star hotel to work as a chef, he was also an expert in campus cooking.

Many of the dishes of later generations were moved to the Ming Dynasty to be simply delicious.

Sure enough, you still have to rely on strength to speak!

Xie Shen has always had a heart to cook private dishes, but he has been fighting for the imperial examination since he came to Daming. Now that I'm finally a little free, it's naturally a good choice to teach little Lori and sister-in-law.

The gentleman is far away from cooking, at least Xie Shen can't be a person in charge on the surface. But if the sister-in-law and the little Lori will become a teacher in the future, then it is not impossible for the Xie family to open another restaurant and expand their wealth.
