Uncle Zhao and Zhao Dalang didn't stay long after they decided the matter, and left at noon, and the next day Zhao and Lu Fenghe still went to the old mansion as planned.

The old lady heard Zhao say that she went to Kuizhou in early September, and she agreed to it, and urged Zhao to leave early if there was nothing to do, and they were all right.

After sitting for a while, the little guy next to Lu Erlang came to invite Lu Fenghe, "Our Lang Jun invites the girl to go to the study to talk." ”

Zhao urged Lu Fenghe, "Go ahead, I'll talk to your grandmother." ”

Jiang is really still old and spicy, and he was actually guessed by Uncle Zhao, and Lu Erlang really looked for her for the cost of the ship.

"The steward next to you went to the boat in the morning, saying that he would go again in four days, and you are going to do this business together?"

"If you can do it, you will do it."

Lu Erlang didn't give the box, but directly gave a few silver tickets, "Since you have to take this line all the time, then the fare of the ship has to be calculated separately." ”

"What do you mean, brother?"

"Except for the boat boss and an old boatman, most of the people on the boat are from your side, and the boat line has not been through a few times."

"If I have too many people, I'll leave some of them behind."

What Lu Fenghe thought was that since it was a ship company, there were ships and boatmen, if there were too many of his own people, then the boatmen of the ship company would be idle.

Lu Erlang shook his head, "That's not necessary, our other lines are walking normally, you have one more line, if the people on the boat have to go out by boat, the boat line really can't deploy so many people." ”

"Then what does my brother mean by giving me this silver?"

"The shipwreck is going to take this line often, so that there will be a greater shortage of people, and if you can have more people every time you go out on the ship, this thing will be easy to do, and as for the wages of the shipwrights on the ship, all the wages of the shipwrights on the ship will be paid by the ship."

"Huh? Still want people? "Lu Fenghe didn't expect Lu Erlang to not only give money but also people, this person came from Shen Nanxun's side, can you say it?

"How often do you go this way?"

Lu Erlang nodded, "You came back from a trip, and I don't know where the news leaked, several trading houses came to the shipping company to inquire when we would leave again." ”

Lu Fenghe was energetic and asked Lu Erlang, "Brother, where are you inquiring?" ”

Lu Erlang said a few firms, some of which Lu Fenghe knew, and some of whom had no impression of Lu Fenghe.

"Is there a firm that you are more familiar with and can trust?"

"If you want to talk about credibility, in fact, I prefer to do business with small commercial houses, how much money you can do, how much you can pay for the ship, the money is also settled when the ship comes back, it is clean, but there are some large commercial houses, three or five times or even March and May do not close, it is really annoying."

"Why is this the case with a big commercial house?" In Lu Fenghe's shallow business experience, shouldn't the big trading house give more money and be more happy?

"The volume is large, and the place where it needs to be spent is also large, and I also understand their difficulties, which can be understood."

Lu Fenghe had a new idea, but he didn't have much to say to Second Brother Lu.

"If the second brother thinks it's a good business firm to write it to me, I can let my steward here go for a walk in the past two days, this line should be clearer than me, it's not as simple as going to Fuzhou and Rushui."

Second Brother Lu nodded, "I know about this, and my grandfather also told me, so I didn't accept this matter from them, but mentioned it to you first." ”

"Thank you, second brother, I will also contact with various businesses, anyway, there are still a few days."

What Lu Erlang didn't say to Lu Fenghe was that for the northwest line, Shen Nanxun and Lu Sanye both wrote letters to the old man, and the old man also called him to Erti to die when he was sick.

As for the origin of those people in Lu Fenghe's hands, Lu Erlang knows better than Lu Fenghe, the superficial master.

"As for the people my brother said, I'm afraid there won't be many for a while, so I have to find it again."

"Don't worry, I'll tell you directly about this northwest line, no matter how many boats of cargo you take in the future, I will only give ten boatmen to each boat, and you can find your own way if you lack people, there are really not so many people in the ship."

Lu Fenghe knows that a boat, even if it is a small sand boat, ten people are not enough, the more you go to the hinterland, the narrower the river, the smaller the wind and waves on the river, sometimes it is not possible to rely on the sail at all, and often rely on the boatman to add strength to the bilge.

A sand boat, just to transport goods, let alone twenty or thirty people, these ten people, where is enough, there are only about a hundred people in her hands, this is still only ten boats.

Lu Erlang doesn't care what Lu Fenghe does, this matter was explained by the old man, even if his sister's little face wrinkled into a bitter gourd, he couldn't do anything.

Lu Fenghe walked out of Lu Erlang's study, and his first reaction was that he had to write another letter to Shen Nanxun, if he wanted to unite others to go to the northwest, ten boats were not enough, and a hundred people were not enough.

】

It's just a union, how to unite the law, this is also a question.

Lu Fenghe was found by Uncle Zhao and Lu Erlang, one head was two big, and it was full of problems.

When he left the old house, he asked people to send a message to Jinbao and went to see several trading houses mentioned by Lu Erlang.

If it was a joint firm, Lu Fenghe felt that he had made himself a north-south goods bank again, which was not what she wanted.

I also have to write a letter to Shen Nanxun, she is right to mention this matter, but she can't do it, she just wants to be a tea shop.

Within one day, Lu Fenghe sent three letters to Shen Nanxun, if it weren't for Xiangya'er knowing that Lu Fenghe was doing well, and also confessed to the messenger, it wasn't for the lady and the child, the messenger was a little panicked, but don't have something wrong, I didn't notice it here, and I didn't report it to the master.

Shen Nanxun received three letters from Lu Fenghe the next day, and he was really panicked, and his hands shaking to open the letters.

Fortunately, Lu Fenghe's first letter talked about Fuzhou and tea, and also mentioned that the border city can't rely on her as a category alone, and it can't be done.

The second letter only mentions the people and the desire to unite with other firms.

The third letter was simpler, "The joint firm is too complicated, I can't do it, I just want to be a tea shop." ”

Shen Nanxun laughed out loud when he saw the third letter, only one thing was revealed between the lines, I was tired and tired, I didn't want to do this, it was rotten, and I didn't count what was written in front.

Shen Nanxun thought about it and called Shoukang in.

"Go find a few people with clean backgrounds who can trade in, and then ask the gentleman to come in."

As soon as Shou Kang raised his eyes, he saw the portrait of his little son and sister facing him, originally hanging on the side of the eucalyptus table was the picture of Dayongyu, and now the portrait he brought back from Biling was hung, as for the map, it was naturally taken down.

Shoukang still remembers the way the master asked people to take the map at that time, and the expression on his face was very complicated, with disdain, disgust, heartache, and ambition.

"What's the matter, the ancestral territory will let the Wang family be in charge for another ten or eight years, I'm afraid it will be a little smaller."
