Chapter 14: Opening a bookstore
Something unexpected happened to Gu Cangguo, five days later, the Qian family firm was actually closed, and the Qian family was about to be demolished.
In Gucangcheng, the Qian family firm is the only one that can compete with the four great families in business, and those who know the insiders are worried that the competition between the Qian family and the four major families has been fierce to the point of closing.
The closure of the Qian firm has led to speculation. Some people think that the Qian firm was brought down by the four great families, some people think that the Qian firm can't run it by itself and can't fight the four major families, and some people think that the money shopkeeper took away the huge sum of money from the Qian firm and ran away.
Chen's Restaurant, the largest restaurant in the ancient Cangguo, is one of the properties of the Chen family of the four major families.
At this time, in an accord in the Chen Building, there were three middle-aged people with noble status and angry eyes. They are the heads of the three major families, the Wei family, the Chen family, and the Liu family. After receiving the smile of the closure of the Qian Commercial Bank, they got together to discuss.
"Didn't the head of the Li family come?" said Wei Hong, the head of the Wei family.
"Hmph, he Li Yuan is the uncle of the emperor today, and the Li family is the most powerful of our four major families, how could he, Li Yuan, come to my little Chen Lou with a face. Chen Mingyi, the owner of Chen Lou, said with a dissatisfied face. Since the riot a few decades ago, after a branch of the Li family seized imperial power, the power of the Li family has expanded rapidly, far apart from the other four major families, becoming the head of the four major families, and they are more and more disregarded by these three families.
"If he doesn't come, let's leave him alone, let's talk about this Qian family's firm!" said Liu Game, the head of another family, the head of the Liu family, and his words also revealed his deep dissatisfaction with Li Yuan.
"This Qian family firm has always been against our four great families, how can it be said that it will be closed?" Wei Hong said puzzled. This Qian firm was established more than ten years ago, forced by the imperial power behind it, their four great families let it go, but they didn't expect that in just a dozen years, this small business bank has developed to the point where it is today.
Now that it's closed, it will naturally attract their attention.
"Did you find anything over there?" Chen Mingyi said.
"My Liu family hasn't found anything, what about the two of you?" asked Liu Game.
"Neither do my Chen family. Chen Mingyi replied.
"The Wei family too. After Wei Hong finished speaking, the three of them glanced at each other, and they all felt that this matter was unusual. The news of their three major families can be said to be the most well-informed in this ancient Cangcheng, and now that such a big trading house is closed, they can't find anything, it really shouldn't be.
"Keep investigating, we must see what the hell they do!" Wei Hong said gloomily.
Chen Mingyi and Liu Game have the same idea.
In a luxurious mansion, Qian Fugui was standing in the hall, and there were more than a dozen noble-status and gorgeously dressed people sitting in the hall who were looking at Qian Fugui angrily.
"Qian Fugui, what are you doing? Why do you close down a good business bank. A middle-aged man wearing a python suit with angry eyes said loudly.
Others also looked at Qian Fugui with bad intentions.
Being watched by so many people, Qian Fugui did not have the slightest panic on his face, but had a feeling of flattery. Although his sister is a queen, he is just a small businessman, when has he been seen by so many big people.
Qian Fugui took a deep breath and said calmly, "Don't worry, listen to my explanation...... slowly"
Those people listened to Qian Fugui talk about the new plan of the Qian family firm, as well as the two new technologies, and the income of Qian Fugui's budget, their faces were first shocked, then ecstatic, and their eyes showed a golden light.
Liu's Restaurant, although not as big as Chen's Restaurant, is also famous in Gucangcheng.
At this time, a table in the restaurant was full of various delicacies. Sitting on the seat was the group of teenagers and girls who were rescued by Mo Yunshan.
"This cup, to Uncle Mo, thank Uncle Mo for saving his life. Liu Peng picked up his wine glass and raised it to Mo Yunshan, his face full of respect.
The other boys and girls also raised their glasses.
Mo Yunshan picked up the wine glass, raised his head slightly, and drank all the glasses.
Most of the boys and girls were choked and coughed after most of them had finished drinking.
In fact, some of them had never drunk alcohol at all, but they wanted to express their gratitude to Mo Yunshan, so they tried it.
When everyone saw this, they all laughed out loud.
After they had eaten and drunk, the crowd began to talk happily.
"Uncle Mo, what are your plans in the future?" asked Liu Peng with a blushing face.
The others also looked at Mo Yun Mountain, and they also wanted to hear Mo Yun Mountain's plans.
"I should open a bookstore, and then teach Daifuku and Erfu to read and write, and educate them to become talents. Mo Yunshan said lightly.
He has lived for nearly half his life, has seen too many ups and downs, and has long lost the passion and impulse of his youth, and now he only has indifference and calmness. Even when he came to this wonderful world, he didn't think about how to break through.
He just wants to live his life as simply and calmly as before.
He would open a bookstore, collect all kinds of books, and talk to customers in his bookstore with a book in his hand.
He would raise Daifuku and Erfu as his own children and teach them to read and write.
Erfu has excellent talent, although he is young, but he can see that he has high ambitions, and he will do his best to cultivate Erfu into a talent.
Daifuku is a simple and honest child, he doesn't have the talent to become a spirit, he will give him the ability of his life, let him grow up well, maybe he can't break into the world like Erfu, but at least he will definitely not be reduced to mediocrity.
In the next month, Mo Yunshan was helping Qian Fugui direct the construction of the Qian Commercial Bank. For the new technologies he brought, he has asked Qian Fugui to build several new factories, so he still has to help see the results of these new technologies.
Mo Yunshan found that many things in this world were too scarce, toothpaste and toothbrushes were not available, the oil was not peanut oil, and most of the salt was still coarse salt, so he had to talk to Qian Fugui about a lot of business, bringing Qian Fugui a lot of new things.
Qian Fugui can now see that Mo Yunshan is by no means an ordinary person, and now he treats Mo Yunshan as respectfully as his parents.
Mo Yunshan's own bookstore is also planning.
He noticed a strange phenomenon, people in this world do not pay much attention to reading. Those spirits will only pay attention to their own spiritual energy cultivation and will not pay attention to reading, and those who are poor do not even have the opportunity to study.
There are not many types of books on the market, only some ancient books and humanistic biographies that have been handed down, and the others are about cultivation, alchemy, and refining tools.
Mo Yunshan had to give the printing press to Qian Fugui. As soon as Qian Fugui heard that printing was like a treasure, he was so excited that the flesh on his face trembled.
Mo Yunshan couldn't pay attention to what Qian Fugui was excited about, and the new technology he gave Qian Fugui was not one or two.
The construction of the Qian firm was in full swing, and two months later, the Qian firm finally reopened.
