Chapter Ninety-Seven: Investing in the Bookstore

(Ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes!) )

Yuyao in June, the heat is unbearable. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The water vapor of the Yao River steamed up and hit the cheeks of the passers-by. The annoying poisonous sun hung high in the sky, roasting people's backs like a chopping board.

The people walking on the streets have obviously quickened their pace, and they no longer have the leisure to linger in the streets and alleys, so it is the right way to return home early and drink a sip of ice water to cool off the heat.

Even the wands that sell coolies have suspended their work, and they sit in pairs and threes around the tea shop on the side of the road, drinking a large bowl of tea for a penny and a bowl to relieve the heat.

Xie Shen and Wang Shouren, as soon as Wang Sufang entered the city, he felt the heat wave coming to his face, and subconsciously accelerated his pace.

"This summer looks like it's going to be tough again."

The corners of Wang Shouren's mouth were slightly raised, and there was obviously a trace of helplessness in his voice.

In an agrarian society like the Ming Dynasty, the number of acres directly reflects the strength of a family. A wealthy family like the Wang family naturally has a lot of land in their hands.

Xie Shen knew that Wang Shouren was worried that these fields had suffered from drought, but he couldn't say anything. After all, this is someone's private matter.

Wang Su sighed quietly: "The old man has lived for more than 40 years and finally understands that there is no hometown anywhere." ”

Although Wang Su plans to resign, he will not feel uncomfortable at this juncture. He planned to wait for the turmoil in the Yanyun case to completely subside before he resigned, and now his return to Yuyao can be regarded as a temporary avoidance.

"The old man and Brother Ren will go back to the mansion to rest first, and Engong can come to the mansion at any time to gossip."

Xie Shen was really embarrassed to be shouted by Wang Su one by one, but he reminded Wang Su several times that he still didn't change his words, so he didn't insist anymore.

"Lord Wang, let's go and rest first, the kid will definitely visit in a few days!"

After speaking, Xie Shen and Wang Shouren and Wang Su gave up their hands one by one and said goodbye at the street entrance.

Xie Shen subconsciously wanted to go in the direction of the bamboo building, but as soon as he took a step, he remembered that his eldest brother and sister-in-law had already purchased a house in the north of the city, so he smiled bitterly and walked towards his new home.

The newly purchased mansion of the Xie family is in the north of the city, not far from the City God Temple, which is the most prosperous area in Yuyao.

At that time, the eldest brother Xie Fang had been in pain for three hundred taels of silver for a long time, but Xie Shen finally insisted on buying the house.

When he came to his house, Xie Shen was slightly stunned. The door is hidden, isn't it a guest from the house?

Pushing the door in doubt, Xie Shen walked straight towards the inner courtyard.

This house is a two-entry house, and the front yard has a flower hall, an ear room, and a wing room for guests to live in. The backyard is the mansion where the owner of the Xie family lives.

At the beginning, Yaxing also had a three-entry mansion for Xie Shen to choose from, but he felt that he had just won the show, so it was too high-profile to buy a three-entry mansion. In addition, counting Shui Yun, the Erya family has a total of five people, and it is too wasteful to live in a three-entry mansion, so it was finally decided to purchase this two-entry mansion.

Passing through the moon gate is the inner courtyard, Xie Shen saw that the eldest brother was sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard with a man who looked like a Confucian merchant and discussing something, but the man was on his back, and Xie Shen couldn't see his face. The young man thought for a moment, then coughed lightly and said, "Big brother, I'm back." ”

The Confucian merchant was the first to turn around when he heard the voice and said, "Isn't this Brother Shen?" Congratulations, I heard that Brother Shen was admitted to the student exam, and I was afraid to call Xie Xiaoxianggong when we met in the future. ”

Xie Shen looked at it, isn't this person the shopkeeper of Hengyuan Tea House in the west of the city!

On that day, this guy treated his eldest brother Xie Fang as a cow and horse, and he was extremely ridiculed, and now when he saw that he was a showman, he came over with a dead face and said hello, he was simply the leader in shamelessness and the leader in scum!

The clay man still has three points of temperament, and Xie Shen didn't immediately blast this Wu shopkeeper out of the house, which is already a blessing, how can he give him a good look.

"Since you know that Ben Gongzi is a county student, please be respectful."

Xie Shen glanced coldly at Shopkeeper Wu and said coldly.

Shopkeeper Wu put a cold ass on his hot face, and secretly scolded you in his heart for being a little thief who doesn't know what to do, give you a few colors and you really opened a dyeing workshop!

But he had to continue to please Xie Shen and said: "Look at Xiao Lao'er's mouth, it really deserves to be beaten." Xie Xiaoxianggong also asked for forgiveness. ”

"Big brother, I've just come back from Hangzhou Mansion and I'm a little tired, let's send off guests."

Xie Shen didn't appreciate it at all, and directly issued an eviction order.

"This ......"

Xie Fang looked at Xie Shen with some embarrassment, hesitated for a moment, then turned to shopkeeper Wu and said, "Shopkeeper Wu, why don't you go back first." ”

Shopkeeper Wu barely squeezed out a smile and said, "It's easy to say." What the little old man just said, please think about it. The little minister was tired of the boat, and the little old man didn't bother and said goodbye. ”

Shopkeeper Wu turned around and left with a disgraced face, and when Xie Shen saw him walking away, he hurriedly said to Xie Fang: "Big brother, what did this guy say to you just now?" ”

Xie Fang sighed and said, "What else can it be, he wants to sell tea with his brother." ”

"Big brother promised him?"

"That's not yet, my brother only told him to think about it."

Xie Shen's heart sank, but he was not angry.

The eldest brother is too honest. As the old saying goes, people are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden by people, which really makes sense. This shopkeeper Wu treated the eldest brother like that at the beginning, but the eldest brother repaid his grievances with virtue, and he actually wanted to start cooperating with the shopkeeper Wu.

People like Shopkeeper Wu are the most mercenary, and the faces of profiteers are undoubtedly exposed. If he hadn't won the fame of Xiucai, this shopkeeper Wu would definitely not even look at the people of the Xie family.

"If the eldest brother wants to sell tea, he can do it himself, and there is no need to cooperate with this kind of villain. Besides, I want to take a stake in the Feng Family Bookstore, and the eldest brother and the Feng shopkeeper will take care of the bookstore's business together. ”

This was not a whim for Xie Shen, but a plan he had thought about for a long time on the way back.

He can talk to the shopkeepers of the two bookstores in Yuyao County and Shaoxing Mansion very well, but no matter how he says it, he is an outsider.

People are separated from their stomachs, and God knows if there will be any problems in the future.

Just in case, Xie Shen decided to take a stake in the bookstore and let the eldest brother take care of the bookstore's affairs. In this way, the Xie family has become half of the owner of the bookstore, and they are naturally not afraid of being secretly placed on the road again.

Moreover, the volume of Yuyao Fengjia Bookstore is not large, and it is not difficult to buy shares.

Xie Fang was slightly stunned.

Investing in Bookstore?

Xiao Lang wrote books and sold them in the bookstore, and this house was bought with the money from Xiao Lang's book sales. But it's another thing to let him really take a stake in the bookstore, after all, he doesn't know anything except selling tea, and he doesn't seem to be good at taking care of the bookstore.

As if seeing the doubts in his brother's heart, Xie Shen explained: "The shareholding of this bookstore is not for the eldest brother to take over with full authority, but just to cooperate with the Feng family. At the end of the year, everyone will divide the money according to the earnings. Of course, the eldest brother can also learn more from the people of the Feng family, and this bookstore is better than selling tea and making money! ”
