Chapter 596: The Gift of Meeting
In the afternoon, Song Qi, led by Xu Zhen, appeared at the Ximen firm. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhuang Zhifu, Mao Yong, Feng Dan and others followed Song Qi's left and right
The main reason why Song Qi took Zhuang Zhifu to the new Ming Zhu firm was to let Zhuang Zhifu learn with his own eyes how Xu Zhen received the assets of the Ming Zhu firm. Zhuang Zhifu wanted to go to the distant Chu State to receive the Ming Zhu semicolon occupied by Bi Fannao, and he could only rely on himself, Song Qi couldn't help at all, so he could only let him appreciate how others did it in advance, and then he could draw a gourd in the same way.
Ximen Firm is located on Fenghe Road, less than a mile away from the Mingzhu Compound, only three streets apart. It covers an area of three hectares and consists of four magnificent buildings and a large compound. One of the buildings facing the street, on the first floor of which is a large shop, which distributes grain, rice, oil, salt, and daily necessities. On the second floor, there is a very luxurious restaurant.
Ximen Liu Ximen Yu had already left gloomily, and some of his important assistants had also left. Today, restaurants and shops are closed, waiting for a new owner.
When Song Qi arrived, several sturdy men were standing on the tall ladders, taking off the old sign at the door of the Ximen Firm, throwing it on the ground, and then respectfully hanging the sign of the Mingzhu Firm.
"Ming Zhu Merchant Liang Guo Branch" eight gilt characters shine in the sun. This is the old brand of Mingzhu business, Xu Zhen let people scrub it clean and brought it from Mingzhu compound. The old brand is in a new place, and it is shining again.
Subsequently, under the guidance of Xu Zhen, Song Qi and his entourage walked into the compound of Xinming Zhu's business.
In the courtyard between the first and second buildings, there is a flat land of nearly thirty zhang square, which is where the guys usually exercise, and now this flat land is black and black and presses the people standing on the ground, there are seven hundred people, all with wide eyes, with expectant eyes, looking ahead, waiting to meet the new owner.
"Guys, this is Brother Song, the owner of our Mingzhu firm!" Xu Zhen walked forward quickly, stood facing everyone, and introduced Song Qidao loudly.
"Hello host!" The guys bowed ninety degrees to Song Qi together.
"Hello guys!" Song Qi stood next to Xu Zhen, his gaze slowly swept over everyone's expectant faces, raised his hand and waved to everyone, and said with emotion, "Some of you have worked in Mingzhu Firm, and some of you have just joined Mingzhu Firm. Either way, you're welcome. I can give you a bottom line, although there have been some changes in our firm, but it will not have any impact on you, your position will not change, your income will not change, and your power will not change. Nothing remains the same. ”
"Great!" Everyone cheered. To be honest, many people's hearts are up and down. Some people used to be buddies of Mingzhu Firm, and they were co-opted by Ximen Liu, and in their hearts, this was a stain. They are very worried, if they return to Mingzhu Firm, will they be looked down upon? Those who newly entered the Ximen firm did not know anything about the Mingzhu firm, and their hearts were even more uneasy.
For those who have betrayed the Ming Zhu business, Song Qi will certainly not appoint them. But those people felt that they were sinful and had already left consciously. There were at least 1,000 men in the Simon Firm, and now there were only 700 people standing at the scene, indicating that two or three hundred people left of their own accord.
The people who took the initiative to stay were basically some guys, who were forced by life, and when the Mingzhu firm couldn't hold on, they could only join the Ximen firm. Of course, Song Qi doesn't care. If you care about everything, you don't have to do anything at all in the future.
"Today is my first meeting with you, and because I came in a hurry, I didn't prepare any gifts!" Song Qi smiled slightly, raised his voice and said, "So, I can only give everyone five hundred taels of silver as a meeting gift!" ”
Yes? And a meeting gift, and it's five hundred taels?
Everyone was worried that they would lose their positions, but they didn't expect that their positions were kept, and there were five hundred taels of meeting gifts! Five hundred taels is really an astronomical amount for those low-level guys, at least for twenty years, and for high-level guys, it is equivalent to two or three years.
"Thank you, owner!" Everyone looked at each other, and they could see happiness and surprise in each other's eyes.
Song Qi waved his hand to everyone, raised his hand and patted Xu Zhen's shoulder, and said to everyone with a spring breeze on his face: "This shopkeeper Xu is the chief shopkeeper of our Mingzhu firm, and also your boss, he will be your head in the future, you all listen to him, how our Mingzhu firm will operate and how to show in the future, it will be the shopkeeper Xu's full responsibility!" ”
"Good shopkeeper Xu!" There was a round of applause below. They all knew that in the future, they would deal with the most with this shopkeeper Xu.
Xu Zhen waved his hands to the left and right, and said with a smile:
"I've already met you, and I've already said what I need to say, so I won't say more now. Everyone will disperse now, and each of them will go back to their posts to do things! Do things like yesterday and the day before yesterday! ”
"Yes!" The guys left happily.
After that, Song Qi and his entourage, accompanied by Xu Zhen, entered each building for a brief tour.
The second building is mainly the office of the guys who are responsible for buying and selling. The most important business of the Mingzhu firm is cross-border trade, that is, importing goods from one country to selling to another country, buying low and selling high, all of which are bulk businesses, and retail only accounts for a very small part of the business of the Mingzhu firm. Ximen Liu came out of the Mingzhu firm, and robbed the business of the Mingzhu firm, which is naturally mainly based on cross-border trade.
The third building is where high-ranking people such as the shopkeeper and the big tent office work. Now it has naturally become the place where Xu Zhen works.
The fourth building is a residential area, which is divided into the main house and the east and west wings, and Xu Zhen will live in this place in the future.
After inspecting the Mingzhu firm, Song Qi returned to the Mingzhu compound with satisfaction.
Now for Song Qi, the big hatred and small hatred are almost repaid, and the things in Qiantang are basically done, and then there is the most important thing left, revenge. Song Qi planned to rush to Guangding City as soon as possible to borrow troops from the Liang court to take revenge.
Before going to Guangding, Song Qi had two more things to complete.
The first thing is to marry Fu Ling, this he has promised Fu Ling, the wedding date is set for the sixth day of the first month of May, and now there are five days left before the sixth day of the fifth month.
To officially hold a wedding, of course, you need to prepare a lot of things, such as decorating the new house, buying the bride and groom's clothes, although the five days of preparation time is relatively rushed, but it is enough. Of course, these preparations are mainly completed by beauties such as Yan Fei, Fu Ling, and Long Ni. In the past few days, they have been so busy that their feet do not touch the ground, and they are very happy.
Song Qi is relatively idle. He wanted to take advantage of the five-day gap to go to the Mingzhu Treasure Hiding Ground to have a look. According to the mark of the Ming and Zhu wealth treasure map, Qiantang Luoxing Mountain is an important treasure hiding place.
Song Qi was very familiar with the mountains around West Lake, but he didn't have any impression of Luoxing Mountain in his mind.
Where is Falling Star Mountain? (To be continued.) )
