Without mentioning the gossip, Xie Shen accepted the letter and instructed the scholar Chen Hu'er: "You go to the tea shop and invite the eldest brother home." Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info I'll go to Wang's house first, and I'll go back! ”

After saying that, Xie Shen stepped out of the house and went straight to the Wang's house.

For him, the most important thing is not to make much money by selling Yuyao Xianming, but to open up the business contacts in Hangzhou and even the entire Zhejiang Province.

Take Ning Yi and Ning Yuanwai as an example, at first Xie Shen only thought that Ning Yuanwai was a tea merchant, and never thought that Ning Yuanwai was still running a salt business.

That's the connections and resources. If a wealthy businessman like Ning Yuanwai makes more friends, it will be of great benefit to Xie Shen and even the Xie family.

Xie Shen came to Wang's house. Menzi saw that the son of the Xie family was here again, and he hurriedly accompanied the smiling face to greet him.

"Thank you, please!"

"Hmm."

Xie Shen had no intention of talking to Menzi, so he responded lightly and stepped into the house.

Bypassing the Yimen Gate and being led by the gate all the way through the courtyard, Xie Shen came to Wang Shouren's small courtyard, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "What about Lord Wang?" ”

"The second master went to Beijing yesterday, and when he left, he instructed Xie Xianggong to come to the mansion and find the eldest prince directly."

Xie Shen nodded and no longer hesitated, and took a step into the courtyard.

According to Wang Shouren's habit, he must be reading now, Xie Shen walked straight to the study, and said lightly: "Brother Shouren hasn't seen him for a few days, and he is becoming more and more elegant." ”

But he saw Wang Shouren standing in front of the bookcase and was painting a pair of danqing, and when he heard Xie Shen coming in, he put down his pen and smiled: "It's Brother Shenxian who is here, sit down and say." ”

Wang Shouren led Xie Shen to sit down in the beech wood south official hat chair, and said first: "Let Wang guess, Brother Shen Xian is here to open a tea shop in Hangzhou this time." ”

"Brother Shouren is really a god, Xie admires it!"

Xie Shen raised his eyebrows and said lightly.

"Haha, where is this foolish brother God, it is clear that your Shenxian brother has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, what else can you do if you don't come for this?"

was a little embarrassed by what Wang Shouren said, Xie Shen smiled and said, "Look at what Brother Shouren said, can't Xie come to learn piano skills or chant poetry with Brother Shouren?" ”

Seeing Xie Shen talking about him left and right, Wang Shouren only felt funny in his heart.

This Xie Shen looks old and serious, and he can't imagine that his skin is so thin!

Wang Shouren coughed and said: "It's natural to learn from the piano and recite poetry, but let's discuss the business first." ”

"Hmm." Xie Shen sorted out his thoughts, and then summarized a few sentences of what Ning Yuan said in the letter and said to Wang Shouren, naturally skipping the part of Ning Yuan's foreign salt sales.

"Oh, that's funny."

Wang Shouren was quite surprised that Ning Yuan had taken care of the relevant matters in a short period of time. However, since the Wang family wants to partner with Xie Shen to do business, there are still some things to be said.

"The money has already been prepared, and before my uncle left Yuyao, he specially instructed Wang to hand it over to Brother Shenxian."

Xie Shen couldn't help frowning.

Daming has not yet appeared in the ticket number, at most there is only Qianzhuang. However, the bank does not have the function of large-value exchange. This time, the Wang family invested hundreds or thousands of taels of shares, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to exchange them in Hangzhou through the money bank.

But if the eldest brother wants to go to Hangzhou with so much money, Xie Shen is a little relieved.

As if seeing the doubts in Xie Shen's heart, Wang Shouren smiled faintly and said, "What, Brother Shen Xian is worried about the inconvenience of too much money?" ”

Xie Shen nodded. There is a way that is not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves. The eldest brother went to Hangzhou with so much money, and it was certain that he would be targeted.

"It's simple. Brother Fool repairs a book, you ask Brother Ling to take it to Hangzhou to find Fan Yuan, and ask him to withdraw the money to Brother Ling first. Another day, the foolish brother will order someone to give the money to Fan Yuan to make up for it. ”

"That's very good, thank you Brother Shouren!"

With the connections of the Wang family, it is normal to have a few Hangzhou businessmen, and it will not be a problem to borrow a few hundred taels with the handwritten letter of Wang Shouren, the eldest young master of the Wang family.

"The matter of silver money is a trivial matter, if Brother Ling can't turn around for a while, you can also go to Fan Yuan's house to withdraw it."

Wang Shouren has the meaning that the name of the Wang family is a golden signboard, which makes Xie Shen a little embarrassed.

"The money should be enough, the tea is Yuyao immortal tea, the tea is collected in Yuyao, and most of the silver money turnover is also in Yuyao. The eldest brother has 1,000 taels of silver to go to Hangzhou. ”

What Xie Shen said is true, the 1,000 taels of silver brought by the Wang family's 20% stake are enough. There is no need for Xie Fang to bring too much cash to Hangzhou, but he should leave most of the living money to settle with the tea farmers.

Compared with Qiantang Longjing, the advantage of Yuyao Xianming is that it is low cost, and it is also green tea, which is the core advantage. Coupled with a series of wonderful performances in Xie Shen's West Lake Yaji, Yuyao Xianming at least did not lose to Qiantang Longjing in the name.

Of course, Yuyao Xianming still has a long way to go, and it is impossible to reach the sky in one step.

After talking about business, Xie Shen could finally talk about some light topics.

"Brother Shouren, isn't he practicing Danqing skills all these days? These three years are a blink of an eye, didn't Brother Shouren make some preparations for the meeting? ”

Although he knew that Wang Shouren was indifferent by nature, Xie Shen still didn't want him to be too idle.

I have the impression that Wang Yangming took the examination three times before he was admitted to the Jinshi, which was really miserable.

With Wang Shouren's fame, he can almost be called the first scholar of the Ming Dynasty, but he couldn't get into the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop, which couldn't help but make Xie Shen feel the harshness and accident of the Ming Imperial Examination.

Of course, Xie Shen's arrival may cause a butterfly effect, and Wang Shouren may be able to make the list next time?

Xie Shen is keen on the study of Ming history, and often reads some miscellaneous records of wild history to check and fill in the gaps. He once compared Wang Shouren and Tang Yin, two famous men, and found that Wang Yangming was really elegant, while Tang Yin was more deliberately elegant for others to see.

If you think about it carefully, Wang Shouren's character is indeed not suitable for being an official, but if you don't become an official, you won't be able to get in touch with so many social realities, which is not conducive to the formation of Wang Shouren's later psychology.

It's a real mess.

Wang Yangming couldn't see a trace of sadness and joy on his face, and his words changed abruptly: "Those scriptures and historical articles have long been in the fool's mind, what's the point of reading them again?" The style of the foolish brother's article is like that, no matter how much he writes, it is impossible to change. But Brother Shenxian, you should take a good look at the works of famous artists and make good articles. Brother Yu heard that the Grand Master will not be in Yuyao to supervise the administration of school in the near future, but the scientific examination before the township examination will definitely be presiding. Brother Shenxian, although you have won the three yuan in a row, you have to be careful, don't be fettered in such a small test. ”

This also makes some sense, after all, there are too many counties in Zhejiang Province, and if they are supervised one by one, the great master will also lack skills. However, the Grand Master of the scientific examination must preside over it, because it is related to the qualifications to participate in the township examination.
