Chapter 9 Classmates and Friends
On the way, Chen Che silently thought about how to make money.
Based on the experience of his previous life, he is actually very confident that he can make money in this world.
First of all, there is no doubt that you have to make money from rich people.
Stone Fire City is divided into two cities, the inner and outer cities, most of which are poor people, and it is difficult to make a lot of money from these people.
There is money to be made in the inner city, but the commercial trade in the inner city is almost monopolized by large families, and the entanglement of interests is complex and difficult to understand, and it is not something that a poor scholar can interfere with at will.
If you want to go to the inner city to make money, you have to find a middleman as a medium.
After thinking about it, he thought of his classmate and friend Zhang Ruoyuan.
Zhang Ruoyuan was born in a wealthy family in the inner city, and studied with the original owner of this body for three years under the sect of King Jingming, the Great Confucian King of Shihuo City.
This person doesn't like to read, and most of his homework is usually done with the help of the original owner of this body.
After a long time, the two became friends.
Judging from some memories of the original owner of the body, this Zhang Ruoyuan is a person with a bold personality and is worth befriending.
"I'll have to go to him......"
Chen Che secretly made up his mind.
There is no way, the social circle of the original owner of this body is very narrow, and Zhang Ruoyuan is the only one who may become his money-making medium.
……
Half an hour later, Chen Che came to the gate of Zhang's house in the inner city.
He had been to this mansion a few times before, so the porter had some impressions of him.
Before he could speak, the porter went in and reported.
A moment later, a hearty voice came from inside the house.
"Brother Chen! It's great that you've come to see me! You don't know, I've been confined to my home for the past few days, so I've been suffocated to death! ”
Before the words fell, a young man wearing a white brocade coat with thick eyebrows and big eyes walked out of the Zhang family's mansion quickly.
"Brother Zhang......"
Before Chen Che could speak, he was interrupted by Zhang Ruoyuan.
"Brother Chen, this is not the place to talk, go, follow me to Yunhe Tower, I'll be the east, let's have a good chat."
Saying that, he couldn't help but say, and pulled Chen Che away.
The porter behind him reminded in a low voice: "Third Young Master...... The lord said, you can't go out at will. ”
Zhang Ruoyuan didn't look back, just shook his hand and said: "A friend is visiting, it's not a casual outing." ”
……
Half a quarter of an hour later.
The location of the window on the second floor of the Cloud Crane Tower in the inner city.
After the two chatted and drank for a while, Zhang Ruoyuan's expression suddenly became serious.
"Brother Chen, I don't learn and don't know how to do it on weekdays, so it's understandable that I didn't make the list.
But you are a talent of Jinshi, how can you fail in the county test? ”
Chen Che shook his head slightly.
It was the cause and effect left by the original owner of the body, and he didn't have too deep an obsession with it.
And the person who can manipulate the county test to cheat is definitely not an ordinary person, with his current ability, if he rushes to investigate, it will only lead to trouble.
Zhang Ruoyuan sneered when he saw this.
"Humph! Brother Chen, if you don't say it, I also know that there is a problem with this county test!
Forget about others, the idiot of the Yang family can even be admitted to Xiucai, isn't that nonsense?
Don't worry, when the teacher comes back from the study tour, I will go to the teacher with you and ask the teacher to seek justice for you! ”
Chen Che didn't answer the words.
Today, he came to Zhang Ruoyuan to seek a way to make money, but not to seek justice.
After pondering for a moment, he asked tentatively, "Brother Zhang, do you have any plans for the future?" ”
Zhang Ruoyuan's face instantly collapsed when he heard this, and he shook his head helplessly:
"Well, there's nothing left to do.
You don't know, yesterday the family suddenly divided two broken shops for me to take care of...... If nothing else, I should have decided that I was not a student of reading.
In the future, my task is likely to be to guard these two shops, marry a wife and have children...... Then see if you can give birth to a promising son for the family. ”
"Shop...... What shop? ”
Chen Che's eyes lit up.
"A small restaurant, and a teahouse, you can earn more than ten or twenty taels a month, what's wrong?"
Zhang Ruoyuan asked.
Chen Che didn't rush to answer, but pondered for a moment before he said, "Brother Zhang, I used to read a miscellaneous book, which introduced a lot of distinctive dishes, as well as some means of running a restaurant and teahouse......
If you follow the methods described in the book to run a restaurant, I think there is a lot to be done! ”
Zhang Ruoyuan was a little surprised when he heard this.
In his impression, Chen Che can only read and is indifferent to other things, why does it seem that he has changed today, and he actually talked about running a restaurant?
After a moment's thought, he reacted.
"I understand, Brother Chen! I'll pay you ten taels of silver for that book!" ”
As he spoke, he took out the money bag he was carrying and put it directly in front of Chen Che.
"I only brought eight taels with me when I went out today, and I will make up for the remaining two taels for you tomorrow."
In fact, he didn't expect to get any recipes or useful business tips from Chen Che at all.
In his opinion, a proud scholar like Chen Che suddenly talked about the way of doing business, and nine times out of ten he was short of money.
And as Chen Che's friend, he naturally can't be indifferent.
Chen Che looked at the money bag on the table and pushed it back without thinking about it.
"Brother Zhang, I appreciate your kindness.
I'm really short of money right now, but if my stuff doesn't work for you, then I won't take your money. ”
As he spoke, he began to introduce Zhang Ruoyuan to the practices of several special dishes in his previous life, as well as some experience in the operation and management of hotel restaurants in his previous life.
Zhang Ruoyuan didn't care much at first, but as Chen Che explained in depth, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he couldn't help but praise from time to time.
……
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Ruoyuan breathed a sigh of relief, looking like he had benefited a lot.
"Brother Chen, the miscellaneous book you read is really a strange book, and it was a bit presumptuous for me to give out ten taels of silver just now."
Brother Zhang smiled.
Chen Che smiled faintly.
Aside from the supernatural powers, the development level of this world is still in the stage of feudal society.
He used the business methods he learned in his previous life in this world, and it was simply a dimensionality reduction blow.
Of course, he still has reservations about Zhang Ruoyuan.
And what he wants is a stable channel to make money, not a one-shot deal.
Seeing Zhang Ruoyuan's eager look, he hit the railroad while it was hot: "Brother Zhang, you and I are both frustrated people, but should we be sluggish from now on?"
I don't think it's just about studying and gaining fame in this world.
Although now the family doesn't value you, and even gives up on you.
But what if you could run those two shops well?
No one in this world is afraid of having a lot of money.
When the time comes, the elders in the family will definitely be impressed with you!
You can also raise your head again in the family, don't you say? ”
Chen Che painted cakes all the way, and said that Zhang Ruoyuan was enthusiastic.
"Brother Chen, you're right! Anyway, there is still a year before the next county exam, why don't you help me?
Our brothers are of the same heart, and their profits are gold!
Don't worry, if I can really run these two stores well, I will definitely not treat you badly! ”
Excited, Zhang Ruoyuan directly grabbed Chen Che's hand.
Chen Che nodded heavily, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, and began to drink bitterly again.
