Chapter 528: Opening
Sun Yuanhua looked at the inside of this carriage with some confusion, the space that can seat more than ten people is indeed quite large, and ordinary two-wheeled carriages cannot be compared with this at all. Please keep in mind lou)
"It is indeed this kind of carriage, Lord Sun is right, once this kind of carriage is allocated to the post station, it will benefit our dynasty, and what Your Majesty is planning is really not small!" Liu Mao also smiled and agreed, and now he has become a "confidant" who does great things for the emperor, and the emperor uses silver to smash his "political achievements".
"Awesome, awesome!" Sun Yuanhua looked straight at it and admired, this kind of carriage is much heavier than the original two-wheeled carriage, and the carriage is changed all over the world, how many benefits do you have in this world? All of them have created greatness in the subtlety and silence of moisturizing things.
"It's really powerful, it's really powerful...... Liu Mao listened to Sun Chengzong's words, and then became deaf again, the emperor's affairs are indeed courageous, but now he is embarrassed, he doesn't know how to open it for the emperor's busy work, that face has never been pulled down, and he is hovering between whether to come forward in person.
"Oh, it looks like Lord Liu has something unspeakable? I don't know if I can tell you, maybe I can help. Sun Yuanhua saw that Liu Mao looked unspeakable, and hurriedly asked.
"Well, it's not that difficult,...... This, hey, let's tell the truth, this cheek really can't be pulled, and His Majesty has repeatedly explained that he wants to do it himself, this ...... Alas...... "Liu Mao didn't want to mention his embarrassment to others, but Sun Yuanhua is different, Sun Yuanhua is Xu Guangqi's disciple, he is a person who has entered the emperor's eyes, he is a celebrity in the eyes of the emperor, he is the imperial party, and he is the imperial party that is more "core" than him. Let him think of a way, but it couldn't be more suitable. Liu Mao immediately said the problems he encountered.
"Oh, that's right!" Sun Yuanhua listened to it and understood, this Liu Mao is thin-skinned and can't pull his face, and secondly, he has no experience in dealing with those ordinary people and low-level people, after thinking about it a little, Sun Yuanhua has an idea, today he is very happy, very excited, and always wants to find something to vent the joy and excitement in his heart.
"Alas......" Liu Mao sighed, he had puffed himself up dozens of times, every time he puffed up, but when he really had to face those he looked down on, the momentum of this drumming up disappeared, so repeatedly, hesitating, to this day, his business has not yet opened.
"Hehehe, Lord Liu, I'm not talking about you, this matter, since Your Majesty has explained it, then you have to do it according to Your Majesty's instructions, this is the first priority!" Sun Yuanhua listened to Liu Mao's introduction, first laughed a few times, and then began to give Liu Mao advice.
"That's, that's ......" Liu Mao didn't know what he was going to do, and he knew what he should do, but every time he reached a critical moment, he retreated, and after repeating it, he became a habit, and he couldn't pull off his face, anxious and uneasy.
ββ¦β¦ Hehe, this matter, I have experience in the next day, and there are many people who don't understand the steelmaking in Tianjin, and I have to consult those craftsmen from time to time, but I have never considered the problem of face, come, look at this hand......" After Sun Yuanhua finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Liu Mao to see in order to enlighten Liu Mao.
I saw Sun Yuanhua's hands, full of calluses and blisters, obviously, Sun Yuanhua did a lot of his own work in order to cast guns and make steel, these hands are enough to explain the problem.
"Lord Sun's hand,...... Alas, it can be seen that Master Sun often does it himself! Admire, admire! Liu Mao looked at Sun Yuanhua's hand and froze, this hand, absolutely no one believes that he will be an official's hand, and the calluses on it are no different from craftsmen doing heavy work. Liu Mao looked at Sun Yuanhua and immediately admired him, it seems that this Sun Yuanhua is not all dependent on Xu Ge Lao! is also a person who has his own ability, he wants to be the emperor's henchman, if he wants to dodge, I'm afraid he won't be able to get into the emperor's eyes!
"Hehe...... in fact, Lord Liu, there is no need to be afraid of losing face, we are working for the welfare of the people of the world, but to ask for the people's lives, for the people's lives, naturally we should be fearless, even if it really damages our face, we should know the difficulties, and soak with those craftsmen every day in Tianjin, but I think those craftsmen are very kind, very good, this matter will be handed over to the next to find a way, Lord Liu listens to me is ......" Sun Yuanhua continued to explain,
"This, that's ......" Liu Mao was in a fierce conflict in his heart, and Sun Yuanhua's hands and words touched him a lot, and also made him have more courage in his heart. >
"Well, I don't know how Lord Liu is running through the state now, what kind of way to run, adults are not used to explaining to ordinary people like this, stay in the next and shout a few words for adults, and the business will be opened......" Sun Yuanhua is also a warm-hearted person, seeing that Liu Mao, who is about to "partner" with himself to do things for the emperor, is a little "afraid of ugliness", so he began to work for Liu Mao. Dealing with ordinary people, he Sun Yuanhua is familiar and experienced.
"This ......" Liu Mao's face turned red, and he was even more embarrassed, the emperor repeatedly told him to do it himself, he didn't dare to let others do it for him, the business had not opened for a few days, and he hoped that Sun Yuanhua would help him get started, and he wanted to do it himself.
"Don't hesitate, just say it, how long does it take to get from Beijing to Tongzhou, how much does it cost, stay and shout for the adults...... "Sun Yuanhua has been dealing with the craftsmen for a long time, and he also has a pair of ancient ways and hot intestines, and he shouted with a big grin, looking like I have wrapped it for you, and I want to find a way to vent my inner feelings, this shouting on the street is undoubtedly a good way to vent my inner joy, and it is something I wanted to do but didn't dare to do before......
"This ......, to Tongzhou, Xiaguan has also run a few times, to Tongzhou Luheyi, there are forty miles of road, if it is our two horses running, fast half an hour, if a little slower, then add another one or two minutes to arrive, the price, Xiaguan really didn't think about how much to receive, His Majesty wants to spread the business as soon as possible, but it can't be discounted, this ......" Liu Mao was a little embarrassed, he planned to let Sun Yuanhua help him get started, and he said his results in the past few days, That is to test how much time it takes for Jingshi to reach Tongzhou.
"That's it! Luheyi, forty miles, that is to say, run a trip in half an hour, if you change horses and then run, it is no problem to run two or three times a day, if you run three or four round-trips, I am afraid that you can also run down, you charge him twenty dollars alone, this is terrible! ......" Sun Yuanhua began to settle accounts for Liu Mao.
"Well, that's it, after a run, you have to rest for a while, otherwise, people can't stand it, and horses can't stand it......" Liu Mao quickly reminded.
"Oh, that's it! Rent a carriage to run a trip to Tongzhou, then you have to give four or five hundred Wen to say the least, even if you are a person, four horses, two round-trips a day, that is, four trips, I look at it! One person charges twenty wen, ten people per trip, one trip is two hundred wen, four times a day, two round-trips, there are eight hundred wen, you have to use four horses for two trips a day, use it in turns, three more horses than others, add a hundred wen for each horse, and five hundred wen, and put aside the cost of a horse, there are four hundred wen, you don't need money for this carriage, and give the groom one hundred wen, at least you can earn three hundred wen, oops, it's terrible, it's terrible......" Sun Yuanhua calculated that this is a very profitable business.
"This ......" Liu Mao was even more embarrassed, Sun Yuanhua's account was really good, in addition to not being able to save face, he was not sure whether the price was high or low.
"I see that you can still load some things on the roof of the car, not to mention the heavy one, the lighter one, you charge him a few pennies, one trip down, how can you charge forty or fifty wen, four trips a day, you can get another two hundred wen, so, there are five hundred wen a day, a lot......" Sun Yuanhua began to make careful calculations for Liu Mao, so he still looked at the roof of the car, without pulling down a trace of space.
ββ¦β¦ Raising horses costs less than 100 yuan a day, and the coachman doesn't want 100 yuan a day......" Liu Mao said with some embarrassment.
"Then this is not over, you will shout a fifteen wen, no, shout ten wen, as for whether it is a loss or a gain, wait until you do it, otherwise, you will not be able to count it for a lifetime, listen to my ......" Sun Yuanhua said with a big grin, he is now shouting on the street more and more.
"This, Master Sun has a point." Liu Mao said, Liu Mao once again mustered up his strength and was ready to start the carriage business, as for whether Shiwen lost or earned, he couldn't say.
"Good! If you have an adult, it's okay, look at our ......" Sun Yuanhua is a person with strong hands-on ability, and he saw that Liu Mao had already accepted it. started to act immediately, which is very different from Liu Mao, who doesn't dare to do it for a few days. ,
β¦β¦
On the large square of Liulizhai.
A young man dressed in the clothes of a scholar, as if he had traveled, began to shout with an open voice: "Go to Tongzhou Le, go to Tongzhou Luhe Yila, ten yuan for one person, ten yuan for one person!" The four-** carriage made in Ouchi is fast and cheap......"
ββ¦β¦ Go to Tongzhou Lak, go to Tongzhou Luheyi, ten cents, ten cents for one person......"
ββ¦β¦ Tongzhou Luhe Station, ten cents ......"
Sun Yuanhua opened his voice and shouted, he didn't care about the problem of his face, at this moment, knowing the emperor's overall plan, he just wanted to shout loudly to vent his inner excitement. Liu Mao was sweating there, this Sun Yuanhua is really bold! I don't want to do anything.
However, although it was half a loud call, no one came to take the car, which caused many people to come and watch.
"Sun, shopkeeper Sun, I'm afraid it's not okay to call it like this!" Liu Mao was embarrassed, and when he saw that Sun Yuanhua had been calling for a long time, and no one wanted to sit, he hurriedly reminded Sun Yuanhua.
Sun Yuanhua saw a lot of people around, but no one took the car, but he was not discouraged.
Sun Yuanhua called a few entourages and ordered them one by one, and after listening to them, several entourages all nodded.
After a while, an entourage brought Sun Yuanhua a pen and paper, and Sun Yuanhua also wrote on the ground, and one by one the big characters were written.
There were literate people in the crowd, and they read it out unconsciously.
"Spread the word...... Today, there are four ** carriages to Tongzhou Luhe Station, ten cents for one person, the wisher is as soon as possible, can carry people and goods, listen to the respect......"
After Sun Yuanhua wrote one, he asked someone to post it immediately. After writing two sheets, Liu Mao was also embarrassed, and followed Sun Yuanhua with a red face, Sun Yuanhua was not afraid of himself, he was still hypocritical, it really shouldn't be.
So, the two of them wrote "***" in the open air like this, Sun Yuanhua wrote with great interest and passion, and Liu Mao tried his best to keep his head down, his face flushed.
After writing for a while, another attendant found a few gongs for Sun Yuanhua.
Sun Yuanhua was even more interested, took the gong, and shouted hard while knocking: "There are four ** carriages going to Tongzhou Luhe Station today, ten cents for one person, those who wish to do so quickly, can carry goods and people......"
Listening to Sun Yuanhua shouting while beating the gong, Liu Mao was even more ashamed, so he could only lower his head and pretend not to see it, but the line of defense in his heart that had always prevented him from "selling his face" was loosened unconsciously.
Sun Yuanhua seemed to have found a fun thing, and he shouted loudly in the square outside Liulizhai, without embarrassment at all, attracting countless onlookers, Liu Mao could only try his best to write "widely advertised".
"Shopkeeper Liu, you also come to call a few times, this voice is hoarse......" Sun Yuanhua was cold, and stuffed a gong into Liu Mao's hand, holding a gong in one hand and chasing with a stick in the other.
"Bang ......" Liu Mao was taken by Sun Yuanhua and beat the gong awkwardly.
ββ¦β¦ The carriage to Tongzhou ......" Sun Yuanhua shouted with an open voice while taking Liu Mao to beat the gong.
Where are the onlookers pointing and pointing, looking at where the two crazy people are selling, but no one dares to cause trouble, just holding back a smile, and also knows that the people who can shout loudly outside this Liulizhai are not simple, and after watching for a while, one of the old men smiled: "Housheng, Housheng, listen to the little old man's words,...... Where are you doing this? If you want to go to Tongzhou, you naturally have to go to Guangqumen to see, or Dongbianmen, or Yongdingmen, most of the people who go to Tongzhou have to go there, you call here, here are some people who don't go to Tongzhou, isn't it in vain? The old man kindly reminded.
"Thank you for this old man......" When Sun Yuanhua heard it, it really made sense, and immediately thanked him. However, Sun Yuanhua had no intention of moving.
After a while, the crowd was separated. A few people came in.
Those people are wearing uniform costumes, and the words "Liulizhai" are written on the left chest, and the onlookers in this square see that they are these people, and immediately automatically separated, this is the territory of Liulizhai, and people are now coming to the door, and a group of people are ready to watch a good show.
"Dare to ask, but the carriage to Tongzhou?" One of the leading guys asked.
"Exactly, four ** carriages, package sent to Tongzhou Luhe Station, ten cents per person, carrying people and goods, half an hour to ......" Sun Yuanhua carried a gong, and said hard there, as if this was a fun thing.
"Okay, my shopkeeper said that he was just going to send a group of guys to Tongzhou to catch up with the boat, and it happened that there was something wrong with the carriage, if it really only costs ten cents a person, my shopkeeper is willing to try, so as not to catch up with the ......ship," said the leading guy. ,
"No problem, even if you come, you can come as many as you want, and there are seats, and you will be sent to Tongzhou in half an hour......" Sun Yuanhua stopped beating the gong, and said with a smile there, he was happy today, and with this matter, he was crazy.
"Then there will be work, and I will go back to the shopkeeper in the next place." The leading fellow said.
"You're welcome, you're welcome......" Sun Yuanhua said with a smile.
The men returned.
The crowd of onlookers also began to disperse, this is nothing to see, the madman really received business, or Liulizhai.
"Master Sun, this ......" Liu Mao also saw that the onlookers were scattered, so he didn't knock and asked Sun Yuanhua.
"It's nothing, it's just to ask Liulizhai for a favor, hehehe, otherwise, just rely on the two of us to call here, when will it be called? No, with their help, this business has finally opened......" Sun Yuanhua said with a smile.
"That's thanks to Lord Sun's help, otherwise, the lower officials would definitely have mistaken what His Majesty explained." Liu Mao said with a sigh that he was watched by the onlookers for a long time, and was shouted by Sun Yuanhua beating gongs and drums for a while, and his face finally crossed that hurdle, and he was not timid.
"Hehe, you're welcome, Lord Liu, now they are all on errands for Your Majesty, and they should support each other......" Sun Yuanhua said with a smile, looking at Liu Mao's face is now calm, and he is no longer half timid, Sun Yuanhua knows that he has beaten gongs and drums for half a day today in vain, this guy is afraid that he will never talk about face again, and he has lost his "face" today.
β¦β¦
After a while, a lot of people came out of Liulizhai, boarded Liu Mao's carriage, and went to Tongzhou, Sun Yuanhua also took a carriage, waved goodbye to Liu Mao, and Liu Mao's first transaction with a carriage was finally opened.
Everyone is scattered, Liu Mao has an experience, to do this errand, you really can't be afraid of things, let alone cowardly, you have to be thick-skinned, you should show your courage like Sun Yuanhua, you are doing an errand for the emperor, naturally the emperor supports you, what are you afraid of? I didn't dare to act before, but I was afraid and ashamed of myself in my heart, but now that I have crossed that hurdle, I am not afraid of anything.
Liu Mao looked at the pen and paper on the ground, realized something, found his notebook, and wrote: When you post notices everywhere, spread the word.
After Liu Mao finished writing, he looked at the gong that Sun Yuanhua threw there, and realized something, and wrote in his notebook: "When you beat the gong and drum, tell it along the street......"
After Liu Mao finished writing, he thought about it again, and wrote down the situation of today's business, how many people he sent, and how many documents he received, and recorded them in detail one by one.
After Liu Mao finished writing, he remembered something, the business in Tongzhou has opened, and the public carriage in the Beijing division should also be opened, and he will go to the carriage yard tomorrow to ask for the carriage. In addition to posting a notice to go to Tongzhou, he also had to post a notice for a penny to make a carriage, and he couldn't be more timid.
Liu Mao recorded everything, and then closed the book with satisfaction, not caring at all about the strange eyes of passers-by, and now his courage and cheekiness were completely struck out by Sun Yuanhua a few gongs. Is there anything more humiliating than beating gongs and drums and shouting about buying and selling? roοΌ ~οΌ
