Chapter XXXVII
Afternoon.
Jufu Building, a private room on the third floor.
Chen Xuan and Sun Yuan sat at the square table drinking tea and chatting.
"Chen Xuan, Ling Ye is looking for me, I just came from Tianxiang Restaurant."
After taking a sip of tea, Sun Yuan said slowly.
"Ling Ye catches the head."
Chen Xuan listened, waiting for Sun Yuan's next words.
"He wants to join your Jufu Building, let me come and talk to you."
Sun Yuan didn't beat around the bush and said directly.
"How do you join the law?"
Chen Xuan asked.
"Ninety percent of Jufulou's profits are handed over, and he guarantees that no one dares to come to Jufulou for trouble."
Sun Yuan said.
"Ninety percent, then I won't be a part-time worker?" Chen Xuan's face was a little ugly, and then he said: "This Ling Ye has such a big appetite, he is just the head catcher in the Eastern District, he can speak well in the Northern District, and the gangs in the Northern District will give him face?" ”
"Ling Ye catches the head alone, naturally can't eat this ninety percent." Sun Yuan thought for a moment, and then said, "I estimate that a large part of the silver is going to be given to the county lieutenant." ”
"County lieutenant?"
Hearing this, Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect that this small restaurant business could alarm such a big man as the county lieutenant.
"Yes, it's the county lieutenant." Sun Yuan nodded, and then said: "You also know that the patrol team was only temporarily formed, and our money was issued by the government before, but now that the situation has gradually stabilized, the government is going to cancel the patrol team, but the county lieutenant did not agree, the reason is that the bandits have not been eliminated and the situation is not stable."
Under the arguments of the county lieutenant, the patrol team was retained, but the main book in charge of the silver grain was based on the reason that the silver treasury had no money and grain, and refused to issue money to the patrol team, and let the county lieutenant pay out of his own pocket, so the county lieutenant was also short of money. ”
"Lord County Lieutenant, this is to emulate Hedao County!"
Hearing that the county lieutenant had to keep the patrol team out of his own pocket, Chen Xuan guessed some of the county lieutenant's intentions.
More than ten years ago, in the waters of Qingshui County, water bandits were rampant, and Hedao County Cheng also took this opportunity to set up a river patrol team, and later solved the banditry problem, and Hedao County Cheng continued to retain the river patrol team on the grounds of cleaning up the river and repairing the canal.
I heard that Hedao County Cheng also paid out of his own pocket for a while.
Although, the river patrol team was finally canceled, but it was just a change of name and became the Tianhe Gang, and there are many industries under the Tianhe Gang, but everyone knows that the master behind these industries is Hedao County.
What the county lieutenant wants now is an industry that can keep coming in, so that he can afford to support the patrol team.
At that time, even if the patrol team is really canceled, it can be like the river patrol team, directly change its skin and become a gang, which is enough to compete with the Tianhe Gang, the largest gang in Qingshui County.
is covered by the county lieutenant, and naturally no one dares to come to this Jufu Building to make trouble.
"Captain, can you meet the county lieutenant."
Chen Xuan asked.
"Do you want to bypass Ling Ye's arrest and talk directly to the county lieutenant?"
Hearing this, Sun Yuan guessed what Chen Xuan meant.
"Since Ling Ye can't cover his head, then why do you want him to be this middleman to make the difference, wouldn't it be better for me to talk to the county lieutenant myself."
Chen Xuan said in a deep voice.
As he spoke, he quietly handed over a silver ticket worth one hundred taels.
"I can try to find the head catcher in the North District, but ......" Sun Yuan said halfway, Chen Xuan understood the meaning, and handed over a hundred taels of silver ticket and said: "Don't worry, I understand the rules, this is for the head catcher in the North District." ”
Ling Ye was too greedy, and as soon as he came up, he wanted to take away ninety percent of his profits.
Chen Xuan naturally wouldn't let Ling Ye, a black-hearted middleman, make the difference.
"Then I'll leave it to me."
Sun Yuan accepted the silver ticket without leaving a trace, nodded and said.
In comparison, that Ling Ye is too picky.
Let him run errands and eat a meal, and he didn't give a tael of silver, so he was naturally more inclined to help Chen Xuan in his heart.
Although Ling Ye is a head catcher and belongs to his boss, he is the head catcher in the Eastern District, not the head catcher in the North District, and strictly speaking, he has no power to order him to do things.
He can listen or not.
……
……
Following.
Chen Xuan came out of the county governor's mansion.
The county lieutenant deserves to be the county lieutenant, and he has a lot more pattern than Ling Ye, so he directly gave him two bonuses.
Since the medicinal diet and medicinal wine are so profitable, the county lieutenant is going to open a branch building in the eastern, southern and western districts, completely monopolizing the high-end restaurant market.
In this way, the profit in a month may exceed 10,000 taels of silver.
It's no wonder that being able to become a county lieutenant not only has a pattern, but also stands tall and sees far.
Once the high-end restaurant market in the county is monopolized, even if there are only two parts of red, there will be two thousand taels of silver.
He doesn't need to be responsible for the operation of the restaurant, personnel management or anything, as long as he teaches the chef of the restaurant how to make medicinal food and medicinal wine, and when he has time, he will study new medicinal dishes.
In order to give Chen Xuan time to teach the chef to make medicinal food and medicinal wine, the county lieutenant transferred him to the logistics institute of the patrol team, and made him the captain of the logistics institute, which can be regarded as a promotion.
The government has a logistics yard in each square, large and small, which can be used as a supply point for the patrol team or as a temporary rest place, and the logistics yard is always on duty, so that it is convenient to accept the help of the surrounding residents at the first time.
was transferred to the Logistics Institute, and Chen Xuan can be regarded as going from the front of the stage to the back of the scenes.
Every day he doesn't need to go out to patrol duty, he stays in the logistics institute to teach the restaurant chef how to make medicinal food and medicinal wine, etc., and in the process of teaching others, his proficiency is also improved.
Of course, he never fell behind in his daily martial arts practice.
With the identity of the captain of the logistics hospital, and in the name of studying medicinal diet and medicinal wine, he let people get a lot of precious medical books and medicines, which are said to be the family heirlooms of some doctors, and they are never passed on.
But under the power, these doctors still had to bow their heads.
Even, Chen Xuan got some medicinal materials for refining the Purple Jade Bone Cleansing Pill through the Logistics Institute.
The next realm of the Yi Jin Realm is the Quenching Bone Realm.
The secret medicine used in the Quenching Bone Realm is the Purple Jade Bone Cleansing Pill, which is much more expensive than the secret medicine in the Yi Jin Realm, one costs five taels of silver, although Chen Xuan has not yet reached the Quenching Bone Realm, but it is also fast, this is a rainy day, first analyze the formula of the Ziyu Bone Washing Pill.
Chen Xuan was afraid of attracting attention, so he didn't buy too much at once, and they were purchased separately, but unless he was a pharmacist who knew the formula of the Ziyu Bone Cleansing Pill, he didn't know the function of combining these medicinal materials at all.
Next, it's time for the cycle to go back and forth.
In addition to practicing martial arts, Chen Xuan reads medical books and medicine books, absorbs new medical knowledge, and then refines medicines, analyzes the ingredients of Ziyu Bone Washing Pill, experiments again and again, and goes to the rented secret house to study poison and pharmacy after work.
Every day, Chen Xuan lived a very fulfilling life.
