Chapter 500: A turn of fate, the arrival of the Meng family

(Before you know it, it's 500 chapters...... )

The sky was not yet dawn, and only the eastern sky showed a touch of fish belly white.

Lu Yuanchi got out of bed, put on his clothes, and pushed the door out.

This is his house, which is quite simple, only a low house, a small courtyard outside the house, a well in the courtyard, and a stove is built next to the well, which is used for cooking. It's just that the family is poor, and they can't open the pot for a long time, and the stove can't be lit.

He was an orphan, his parents died young, and after the state and county were occupied by the barbarians, he was reduced to a coolie, doing endless gravitational work day and night. But unlike other coolies, Lu Yuanchi has been literate since he was a child, and whenever he has free time, he uses branches to scribble on the ground, writing a variety of contents, or a word, or a sentence, erasing it after writing, and then writing again......

It seems that as soon as I write it, I can forget the fatigue and fatigue of my body and the pain of being whipped.

In the eyes of others, he looks like a nerd who reads stupid books. Reduced to slavery, hungry every day, and accidentally killed. In such an environment, what books do you read and what words do you write?

Lu Yuanchi didn't care, he only did himself.

Some time ago, the barbarian army was wiped out, all the slaves were reborn, and life suddenly had hope. Lu Yuanchi heard that the state government was recruiting talents, so he thought about it and immediately went. After several assessments, he passed and got the opportunity to train.

Early in the morning, the weather was cool, Lu Yuanchi went to the well to get a bucket of water, wet the water with a coarse cloth, and threw himself on his face.

Cleaned up a little, raised his legs and went out.

"Brother Chi, did you go to the state government so early?"

A loud voice shouted.

"It turned out to be Aunt Luo...... Well, yes, you can't be late for class. ”

Looking up and seeing Aunt Luo next door, Lu Yuanchi replied. There is also a slender figure beside Aunt Luo, who is her daughter Xiaojuan. A little shy, hiding slightly behind his mother.

"That is, the business trip can't be delayed......"

Aunt Luo smiled lovely.

Lu Yuanchi said: "So, I'll go." ”

As he spoke, he strode to the state office.

Aunt Luo watched from behind, sighed, grabbed her daughter, and said with hatred: "I said Juan'er, how can you not know how to seize the opportunity, and you don't even dare to speak." ”

The daughter's face was flushed, and she grabbed the corner of her clothes with one hand: "Mother, how can people be embarrassed?"

"In these days, good men are hard to find, and if you miss them, they will be gone. I heard that Brother Chi will be going out to be an official soon. When the time comes, see what you do?"

Aunt Luo said.

"No, when he comes back tonight, you will go to his house, if the raw rice is cooked into cooked rice, it will be fine......"

When Xiaojuan heard her mother say this, she couldn't help but blush, but in her heart, she faintly looked forward to it.

......

The arrival of the Meng family was earlier than expected, and it was also smoother. The nature of a businessman, good at pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages, there will always be a way back, when he chose to go to Qingzhou, he had already preset a way out, and he really made a decision, and the family immediately moved.

Compared to migration, the process of making a decision is more difficult.

After Meng Qingyan went back, he said what he said when he met Chen Sanlang, in addition, as well as his experience of the state and county situation, etc., no matter how big or small, without reservation.

The Meng family immediately convened a family meeting and began to discuss major matters.

At the meeting, not everyone agreed to return to Yongzhou, and there were many opposing voices. They also have good reasons for opposing it, mainly because they think that Chen Sanlang is unreliable!

Chen Sanlang is too young, his foundation is shallow, and he went to the past, if there is anything wrong, then there will be no recovery, and the whole family will suffer.

Meng Hetian, the head of the Meng family, thought for a while, and only asked: "If you have a better place to go, we can also go." ”

They were speechless.

Choosing Yongzhou is that there is no choice.

"In that case, it's settled. ”

Meng Hetian made a direct decision.

Time is pressing, it's late, I'm afraid I can't go. The day before yesterday, King Yan sent someone to urge him, saying that the military was in short supply, and he wanted the Meng family to give another 5,000 quintals of grain. If there is not enough food, it can be discounted into money.

When Meng Hetian heard this, he almost spit out a mouthful of blood, if it was slow bloodletting at the beginning, now it is about to peel the skin and shave the bones. If you don't leave, there will be no scum left.

The Meng family is rich and has a big family, a large business, and a lot of people, and there are many customers at home, each with their own talents. However, the matter of migration is very important, and it must be kept secret, and the door and guest can't trust it, and the main thing is to send children to do things.

Under the guise of raising food!

For this, Yan Wang likes it, compared with money, grain is more valuable and circulating.

And King Yan didn't expect that the Meng family would return to Yongzhou, although Yongzhou has settled down, but it is barren and desolate, lifeless, where can it compare to Qingzhou?

After a period of preparation, the Meng family began to evacuate, and was originally ready to ask Chen Sanlang to help, but because they did not encounter any obstacles, it was very smooth, and it was completed completely by their own strength. By the time King Yan received the information, the main figures of the Meng family had safely gone to Yongzhou Prefecture. The Meng family's stores in Qingzhou have all been evacuated, broken into pieces, and they don't know where to go......

Upon learning of this, King Yan was furious, and even said that he would attack Yongzhou and hunt down the Meng family. It was only after some persuasion from the staff and military advisors that he finally gave up the idea of making a big move, and instead wrote a letter with stern and fierce wording, and sent someone to Chen Sanlang, asking him not to take in the Meng family, otherwise what would happen......

After Chen Sanlang received the letter, he read it very seriously, and then threw it away very seriously.

In Qingzhou, King Yan, as in the past, is comfortably being his own vassal king......

The arrival of the Meng family is like the last piece of the puzzle, making up for the shortcomings in Chen Sanlang's team. In his plan, farmers are important, craftsmen are important, and businessmen are also very important, and without business and trade, many things are like a pool of stagnant water, and they are still in the backward stage of self-production and self-sufficiency, which is not conducive to the development of people's livelihood. But in this day and age, the development of business has its own rules and tricks, and it takes professional and experienced people to do it well.

In the past, Zhou Hezhi was mostly responsible for this aspect, but after all, he was born as a regular scholar, and he did not have the temperament of a keen businessman.

What's more, Zhou Hezhi, as the head of the house, has a lot of affairs, and it is really difficult to take care of them.

As a result, commercial housing came into being, and the Meng family met at the right time and fit each other, forming a complementary and mutually beneficial situation.

Meng Hetian, the head of the Meng family, accepted the appointment letter and became the head of the commercial house, and most of the deacons and officers in the department were from the Meng family, recommended by Meng Hetian, and Chen Sanlang was sealed.

There is no doubt about employing people, and Chen Sanlang has shown this point with practical actions.

Employment is one thing, and the tasks assigned to commercial housing are a lot, and they are all difficult tasks......
