Chapter 28: Find a Shopkeeper

Li Shen came out of the Zhao Guogong Mansion and the stone was already waiting. Tell Li Shen and Xue Rengui to buy a two-acre house. It took eighty strokes. Then I drove to prepare to return to my hometown in Hedong day and night. It is estimated that it will take more than ten days to go back and forth, which is mainly due to the difficult road. Or you can go back and forth in five days

It was already past noon, and in a few hours Li Shen would have to return to the palace. So Li Shen put down his original plan to go to his Zhuangzi.

Li Shen thought, this can't work, he can't come out often. No one is watching when it comes to building a factory, let alone making wine. Distilling things is actually not complicated. It is not difficult for those who want to study. It is difficult for him to guarantee that he will not be stolen when he is not in Zhuangzi

I thought about it for a while. Li Shen changed his mind. It was decided to buy a store in the east of the city first. The kind with a house in the back. In this way, the front of the shop is opened. Behind the workshop. Start small. Wait for the manpower. Then arrange someone to build a factory in Zhuangzi. I'll talk about it when he goes out of the palace in the future. He decided to get out of the palace as soon as possible.

The idea is certain, Li Shen led everyone to Dongshi Yaxing. Said his request. The shopkeeper of Baiguan big business personally entertained. After hearing Li Shen's request, he thought for a moment.

said to Li Shen, "This Lang Jun is really a coincidence, there was really such a house in Dongshi a few days ago. The location is also good, and the price is cheap, with a two-storey store in front and a one-and-a-half-acre house in the back. The store is in the middle of the East Market. The location is really nice"

"Oh, what a coincidence. I don't know how much it costs. "Every inch of land in the East Market is valuable. Not like the West Market. The two-acre house in the West Market is in the store on Jialin Street. It's about 200 habits. The East Market is at least doubled

"Lang Jun, as long as four hundred habitual money." The way of the shopkeeper

"So cheap? It can't be a lie," Li Shen said in surprise. According to the description of the shopkeeper. At least six or seven hundred habits

"Don't dare to hide it from Langjun, the owner of this house is my fellow villager and has always had dealings. It's just because I offended people in this Chang'an City. Leads to business failure. I wanted to sell my house and take refuge in my hometown.

Unexpectedly, the house was taken by someone, and the news was released that no one else was allowed to buy it. Many people who want to buy it can't afford to offend this person, for fear of attracting disaster.

My fellow townsman was not willing to sell his house to this person at a low price. So it's better to sell it at a lower price. But no one has purchased it so far. The shopkeeper said truthfully

"Oh, then do you know who he has offended." Li Shen asked

"Du He, the second son of the Jingzhao Du family," the shopkeeper whispered.

"Oh. It turned out to be him. Li Shen said. Li Shen knew Du He. Du Ruhui's second son. The plot is broken. The Prime Minister's son. It's a pity that Du Ruhui died a few years ago. The eldest son, Du Gou, inherited the family business. It's just that he has no official position, and only inherits the public throne of the country. It's just that Du Ruhui's aftermath is still there. It's just a matter of saving face. And this Du He gentleman. Frivolous temperament. Work under the Prince.

"You go and get the landlord. I want this house. Li Shen said to the shopkeeper

The shopkeeper hurriedly agreed to go out and find someone. Two quarters of an hour passed. The shopkeeper came in with a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties.

"Lang Jun, this is the owner Wang Hongfu." The shopkeeper introduced

"Well, shopkeeper Wang, sit, rest assured, I bought your house. Sit down and talk. I don't know what kind of business the shopkeeper Wang used to do," Li Shen asked

"Lang Jun, I used to be in the cloth silk business." Wang Hongfu replied

"Oh. I heard that you offended the Du family. Is it convenient to talk about it?" asked Li Shen again

"Hey. Don't hide it, I've been in business for more than ten years. From the original business to the later purchase of a façade house in this East Market, it is getting bigger and bigger.

Originally, the business was prosperous and it was a festive event, but when he bought silk, he offended the Du family. I have been buying materials in Henan Province for a long time, and many merchants are in Henan Province.

The Du family is in Hebei Province, but this year, somehow, the Du family went to Henan Province, and the price given is very low, and the people are unwilling to sell it.

The people we often work with are willing to sell to us. So the Du family sent someone to tell us, the merchants, that we should buy them at their prices.

But these people have been trading with us merchants for so many years, and we really can't bear to let these people suffer. So we secretly bought the materials in the hands of the people at the regular price.

Soon after, the county government seized our workshop, saying that we were using defective products. It's not in accordance with the rules, and my shop is always made of ruffians.

Occasionally, there were yamen inspections, and the number of customers decreased day by day, and then I couldn't even pay the guys. I knew that it was the Du family, and I couldn't afford to provoke it, so I was going to sell the house and return to my hometown.

But a steward of the Du family came to me and was willing to pay 50 yuan to buy my house. If I don't sell them, they will let them out, and whoever dares to buy my house will not be able to get along with the Du family. In the end, my price dropped again and again and I didn't sell. Wang Hongfu talked in detail about his relationship with the Du family.

Li Shen looked at Wang Hongfu and was thinking in his heart. This Wang Hongfu should be able to offend the Du family for the sake of the people. More than ten years in business can be regarded as experience. It is better to recruit him as the shopkeeper, so he said to Wang Hongfu: "Then I don't know what the king's plan." ”

"Hey, what plan can I have, it's nothing more than to take the money back to my hometown in Henan Province, be a small landlord, and live a few years to avoid disasters." Wang Hongfu sighed

Li Shen said when he heard it. "Shopkeeper Wang, I have an offer, I don't know if you are willing."

"I don't know what Lang Jun proposes," Wang Hongfu asked

"I'm going to do business, but I'm missing a shopkeeper. If you are willing to come and help me, I will buy this house and pay you a hundred times a year, you see. Of course, since I dare to buy your house, I will not be afraid of Naduhe, and I will ensure that you are safe. Li Shen said

Wang Hongfu was very moved, and the conditions given by Li Shen were indeed very high. A hundred habits a year, no shopkeeper can make so much money. And although Li Shen is small, he is not an ordinary person in disguise, and he is accompanied by maid guards. should be able to keep his family.

He himself is not sure if the Du family will trouble him if he returns to his hometown. It's better to find a backer, maybe you can be prosperous and rich in the future. Immediately, Wang Hongfu bowed to Li Shenshen and said, "Then thank you to the owner." In the future, as long as the owner orders the villain, he will go all out. ”

"Good. Since this is the case, you don't have to worry about the Du family, tomorrow I will ask someone to send you 500 habits, 400 habits to buy your house, and 100 habits will be this year's salary. Prepare the deed tomorrow and go to the county office to transfer the house," Li Shen said and got up again.

"Go and see how your house goes."

Wang Hongfu took Li Shen to his house, the façade is very large, two floors above and below, and the position is in the front, no wonder the Du family also took a fancy to it. If the Du family buys it at a regular price, it will really not be Li Shen's turn,

Li Shen went to the back house again to look at the mansion close to two acres, there are many houses, and the courtyard wall is high enough to prevent small nights, and at this moment the back house still lives in Wang Hongfu's family. But not in the future, this place is for a workshop, and it's too noisy to live in.

After reading the house, Li Shen was very satisfied. Tell Wang Hongfu that now he can find a house and prepare to move. Tomorrow he will come and deliver the money.

"The owner, the Du family... Wang Hongfu said uneasily

"Don't worry. I'm going to ask someone to bring a message to Duhe, he shouldn't dare to come again. Li Shen said.

"The owner, the Du family has a lot of power in this Jingzhao Mansion, and ordinary people will not give this face" Wang Hongfu is still not at ease, after all, Jingzhao Wei Du, going to Tianqi Wu is deeply rooted.

"Don't worry. This guy is going to work, so I'm going to go to him. After Li Shen finished answering, he said to the stone and the others, "Let's go and sit at the eldest brother." ”

"Lord, the prince may not have returned to the East Palace at this time." Stone reminded

"It's okay, it's the same with my sister-in-law. It's not a big deal," Li Shen said, going back to the palace anyway. The East Palace was on the edge of the palace, and he led everyone away

"Prince" "Prince, East Palace" Wang Hongfu was frightened by the few sensitive words he heard just now. It turned out that his owner was a little prince.

And he wants to find someone to talk about it, it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Then there was a burst of ecstasy shouting, "Save, save." And he ran into the house. The subordinates were startled, and they all speculated whether Wang Hongfu was crazy.
