Chapter 55: Let's Charge for Liquor

Zhou Ji is gone, Wu Lao Er has to be busy with other work, Wu Lao Er does not come often in the small office hall of Zhao Wangfu, and he can't say how long he will disappear in a few days, Wu Lao Er plans to do everything he should do during this time, even if he can't do it, he must be instructed.

It's a pity that it didn't take long for him to be clean, and Zhou Ji, who was busy discussing with his subordinates, turned back again.

"Why are you back again?"

Zhou Ji said helplessly: "This is not quite right, my Chief Manager Wu?" I just calculated with my brothers, and it will cost a lot of money at the beginning. Rent a yard, clean it up, hire people, and settle down for the new brother, and it will cost thousands of gold coins to say the least. It's not that we don't know about you, you have scavenged a lot in the palace, and finally borrowed 20,000 gold coins from the Four Seas Gang. Then I wondered, where do you plan to get this initial fund? ”

Wu Lao Er laughed dryly twice and said: "Brother Zhou forgot, we just arrived in Daye City and fought a beautiful battle, Li Dongyi and Li Da Rich have contributed more than 18,000 to us." It's that most of them are treasures, calligraphy and paintings, etc., and they are not so easy to shoot, so they have no choice but to mortgage to the money to gaze at the mother-in-law. Hehe, isn't this start-up capital settled? ”

Zhou Ji said angrily: "I'll just say where did you kid get such a big face, 20,000 yuan to borrow you, it's hard to get money to stare at you, it turns out that the ambush is here!" As soon as you mention that money, I want to ask, brothers should also have some dividends, right? It's almost the New Year, why don't you eat something with meat? ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. In fact, the things we got in Li Dong's family are not so valuable, so how much do you think is appropriate? ”

Zhou Ji looked at Wu Lao Er with wide eyes, pointed at him and said, "You guy, aren't you planning to sell it to the Four Seas Gang?" That's a bit unkind, isn't it? How can you say that people help you so much, if you cheat people like this, business will not be good in the future. ”

Wu Lao Er hurriedly shook his hand and said: "Who said that it was sold to the Four Seas Gang, no matter how black-hearted I Wu Sangui is, I can't do this kind of thing to pit my friends, isn't it!" In fact, there is another way out, it just depends on the price. ”

Zhou Ji looked at the smiling guy in front of him suspiciously, as far as Zhou Ji himself came to see that Wu Lao Er was definitely not an old fox, but the little fox didn't run away. When talking to him about business, you have to be 10,000 careful, otherwise he will really sell him and help him count the money.

I did a little math in my mind, "Ten thousand, it's all stolen goods, I think ten thousand is about the same." If there were more, it wouldn't be a one-shot deal. ”

Zhou Ji is telling the truth, although if the gold, silver, jewelry, books, calligraphy and paintings and other things they moved to Li Dong's family are calculated according to the actual value, I am afraid that 20,000 gold coins may not be able to be won, but just like he said, if they do a hammer deal, fast in and out, the price will have to shrink a lot. Not to mention that it is impossible for ordinary people to eat everything at all, it is too taboo, after all, it is stolen. However, calligraphy and painting are not easy to value, it all depends on the appearance and people.

Wu Lao Er nodded with satisfaction and said: "You are not greedy, okay, I will find money later and look at them to find out, see how it sells, and strive to get 10,000 gold coins for the brothers before the New Year." However, the preparation of the dart line should be postponed to the new year, and during this time, we will consider it again to see what mistakes have been made, and try to make things as perfect as possible. ”

Zhou Ji nodded and said: "That's good, you can see if there is any other profitable business, I still think this dart shop is a bit unreliable." I believe you, but the brothers can't all believe you, and the point is that the brothers have never heard of this thing before, and their hands are relatively raw, and they have no bottom in their hearts. So"

Hearing him say this, Wu Lao Er had to slowly enlighten and said: "Old Zhou, you must know that it is because we are the first people to eat crabs that we can eat the biggest piece of meat!" As I said, business will definitely not be too good at the beginning, but as long as you do it slowly a few times and make a reputation, business will naturally come to you in the future. Seeing that Zhou Ji still looked uneasy, Wu Lao Er continued to bewitch: "Don't believe it or not, Sihai Restaurant knows, right?" You know, is business hot? It's very hot, isn't it better than other restaurant businesses? And the price of vegetables in the four seas is relatively high, isn't it? Seeing Zhou Ji nodding vigorously, Wu Lao Er snorted, "I came up with the idea!" Ordinary people who dare to open ten such luxurious restaurants in a city directly, that is, I, Wu Sangui, have the courage! After half a year next year, you will look again, the capital will have a semicolon of the four seas, and you will look at it again in two years, the four seas restaurant will sweep the country, as long as it is a town that can be called, there must be a signboard of the four seas restaurant! ”

Seeing that Wu Lao Er said so hilariously, Zhou Ji whispered: "Dare to ask how much money your old man can share?" ”

Zhou Ji's words made Wu Laoer's little train "squeak" and brake. Looking at Zhou Ji's little eyes full of curiosity, Wu Lao Er thought for a while and said, "So I said that if this dart line can work, it will definitely work." ”

Pretending not to see Zhou Ji's evil smile, Wu Lao Er said to himself: "This is also an industry that involves a wide range of aspects, if it is done well, it is really necessary for the seven countries to run, so the more people will be needed in the future." Not only retired in the army, but also recruit more good players, sometimes their role is still very large. You have to control this matter, I've seen you retire early in two years, or I don't worry about such a big stall. ”

Zhou Ji thought slowly for a while before he said cautiously: "If you can really do it as you said, it's not impossible for me to find a reason to retire early." Like you said, it's too big to put it in someone else's hands. This is the business of our two hundred and two, and I can't be careless! ”

Wu Lao Er asked in surprise: "Hear you mean that you don't plan to give shares to others?" ”

Zhou Ji nodded and said: "Some important ones, it's okay to give more dividends at the end of the year, like you said, don't give out the shares." There are a lot of us, and in the future, there will be more children and more places to use money, and there will be nothing left for each family. ”

There was silence in the room for a while, and then Wu Lao Er spoke: "In that case, I don't want two floors, it's a bit much, just give me the profit of one floor." You're right, this business will definitely continue to spread in the future. In fact, it is not as exaggerated as I said, and we will do more after we do a good job in this dart line, and we will win if we can occupy the three-tier market. ”

Zhou Ji said angrily: "Can you still be a little accurate, why did it become like this?" What about the best of the best? What about the monopoly of the Seven Kingdoms? Can you still have a little conscience, you lied to me about this! ”

Wu Lao Er hurriedly explained: "I just remembered it, I didn't mean to lie to you. You think, we are the northernmost place, and the goods from the merchants to Heiyu and Huangshi have to go here, and some of the Violet countries have to go here, which is a lot. Those who came from those three countries to our White Jade Country have to look for us when they arrive in Daye Cityβ€”this is the best situation. But the business in other places, we are not very easy to take, we can't pull all the people who have retired from the army to us, right? ”

Zhou Ji blew his beard angrily and glared, and said loudly: "I just said that it is not so reliable, sure enough!" Luckily, I'm back again, otherwise I might have to make some kind of moth. ”

Wu Lao Er smiled and said: "It's not so unreliable, it's a lot." In fact, it's almost the same to find about 20 people first, and we can't afford to pay more. Besides, I said that I only need one layer, so that the brothers can have more points, and after the New Year, I will take out another 10,000 gold coins, which is my share money, so it's okay. ”

Zhou Ji thought about it for a while, "Actually, whether this matter is successful or not, the brothers will accept your affection, if you don't do this, what the Four Seas Gang gives you is enough for you." That's it, let's give you a layer, no matter how much I am, I'm really afraid that the brothers won't have enough points, Brother Wu, you are also a lot, don't worry about me, brother. You can't let you take the money in the early days, my brothers and I take the lion's share, since it's ninety-one accounting, there is no reason for you to take it all, after all, even this road is given to us by you. ”

Wu Lao Er waved his hand and said: "Lao Zhou, if you say this, you will be divided, and I will use more places for my brothers in the future, if you say so, you will not take me as your own!" ”

Zhou Ji laughed and said: "Brother Wu is a cheerful person, but his own brother also has to settle accounts. That's it, brother, you occupy one floor, and you will take the money of one floor out. But, you also know that we are all poor ghosts, you give us the money first, and then pay you back when you earn it! ”

Wu Lao Er resisted the urge to put up his middle finger, this kid learned this set from himself.

Seeing Wu Laoer's depressed appearance, Zhou Ji didn't want to be more comfortable in his heart, "Brother, don't be unhappy, in this way, we don't want your liquor business." Don't be busy refusing, it's like this, I think I've invested a lot of money in that thing, and there is no result so far, even if it is done in the future, it may not be able to make money. You're not having a good time now, you owe a lot of money, right? ”

Wu Lao Er heard this: "It's not much, just this time I got 30,000 gold coins from the Sihai Gang, and the rest is enough for me to give my subordinates a red envelope for the New Year." ”

Zhou Ji looked like this, "Look, it's really a person who does big things, and he doesn't take money properly." Your mansion is worth much, if it depends on your money, you won't be able to pay it off in ten lifetimes. Brother, it's not that my brother said you, you have to live with your mother-in-law in the future, and now you and the four seas have helped to mix oil in honey, what if you are not in the palace one day? ”

Wu Lao Er pondered, this is really the case. If he is transferred back to the capital or somewhere else, the members of the Four Seas Gang will be gone. Pay back? I still have to rely on the liquor business, but these craftsmen have been busy for half a year, and they don't have any eyebrows at all. The business of the dart industry is also, no matter how good you say, no matter how fanciful it is, it still depends on the results. Moreover, the initial investment money has to be borrowed by yourself, and the dividends of the Four Seas Gang are definitely not enough to repay the debts yourself.

Thinking of this, Wu Lao Er nodded and said, "Okay, then do what Brother Zhou said, I'll put it on the dart shop first and give me a layer of share." I won't give it to you here, as long as our brothers don't spoil their feelings! ”

"Then how can it, if the dart line really does it, it will be too late for the brothers to thank you, and you can speak up for anything in the future! What Jinyiwei can't do, let's do it for you! ”

Wu Lao Er was embarrassed when he heard this, Zhou Ji is so stuffy and stuffy, maybe he will give you a stick at some point.

"Haha, it's a joke, Mr. Wu, the little one will retire first?"

Wu Lao Er waved his hand and said, "Don't come back this time, I'll be poorer if you come here!" ”

Zhou Ji didn't feel guilty at all, and said loudly: "Manager Wu is angry when he says this, isn't it, you are making money this day, and what you are doing is a big deal." The net profit of Sihai Restaurant in one day is hundreds of gold coins, and tens of thousands of gold coins a year. When the liquor you said comes out, I think it will cost tens of thousands of gold coins a year. When our dart shop is opened, we will have tens of thousands of gold coins a year. In less than ten years, you will be the one of the Seven Kingdoms! Saying that, Zhou Ji stretched out his thumb and shook it towards Wu Lao Er.

Wu Lao Er has no part in the Four Seas Restaurant, this Zhou Ji knows, he is just teasing Wu Lao Er when he says this.

Wu Lao Er slapped the table and shouted: "Don't get out of here, beware of my subordinates being merciless!" ”

Zhou Ji laughed and ran away.

Looking at Zhou Ji's back, Wu Lao Er fell into deep thought. The profit of the Four Seas Restaurant is now basically maintained at about one hundred and fifty gold coins a day, not one, but ten together. At the beginning, I was wrong to estimate that fifty, so that there were about fifty thousand a year. Zhao Wangfu has three layers of profits, which is almost fifteen thousand gold coins a year. This is a lot of money, after all, it is a trickle of water. Wu Lao Er was not unmoved at the beginning, but he couldn't stretch out this hand. Without him, he can't get through the relationship between the top and bottom, and the name of the head of Zhao Wangfu is not easy to use everywhere, if there is no Zhao Wang, you see how much trouble the Four Seas Restaurant will encounter. That's it, you have to take out at least one layer of profit every year to build a relationship, and gifts for festivals are indispensable.

Wu Lao Er not only regretted this matter, but was also very happy. If nothing else, he has created such a large fortune for the palace, what can King Zhao really do in the future not die to protect himself? The expenses of the palace are quite large, and the monthly allowance of the subordinates is also more, and they have to support a group of caretakers. What's more, it was originally his duty to find a way to make money for the palace. The medicine store's business has not yet taken effect, and the profits are not coming quickly, except for the share given to the army.

King Zhao regards himself as a confidant, to be precise, he regards himself as a good friend, and believes in himself in everything. Just because he handed over all the power of the palace to himself, Wu Lao Er felt that he couldn't live up to him.

He is not a wolf-hearted person, Wu Lao Er said to himself.

Zhou Ji is wrong, the liquor business is the big one, and it is better to hold this business in his own hands, Wu Lao Er himself is a relatively unique person. Wu Lao Er is not in a hurry to pay off the debt, as long as he sells the things he scavenged from Li Dongyi, he will almost be able to repay the 30,000 gold coins he owes. At that time, I will borrow another 10,000 yuan to do a dart business, and by the end of next year, I should no longer owe money to others.

Speaking of which, Wu Lao Er doesn't want to owe anyone else, whether it's money or favors, except for the money owed to the bank. owes money to the bank, Wu Lao Er will only spend it more comfortably.

After cleaning up his mood, Wu Lao Er looked at the weather outside, and planned to talk to his 'good friend' His Royal Highness King Zhao. At the same time, he said to himself: "People who underestimate me will be surprised, liquor, charge!" ”
