Chapter 51 Opening (Part 2)

The three of them were talking and laughing loudly as if no one was around, but the onlookers were wondering: What is the origin of the owner of this store? You are young, look at this attitude. It seems that your friendship with King Fu and Princess Changping is pretty good. With such a backer, it is hard to be prosperous.

At this time, a carriage drove up the street, with a single horse and a double shaft. Although it was not luxurious, it was exquisite. Fang Zheng looked at it and said, "My father is here, Sister Feng, hurry up, let's go and welcome it."

The fat man quickly said, "Let's go together." Changping nodded vigorously.

Soon after, the carriage stopped in the open space in front of the door. Master Fang Shi Ran walked out of it. Fang Zheng quickly stepped forward and bowed to salute. Master Fang nodded with a smile, and turned his head to see that King Fu and Princess Changping were there too. He couldn't help but be stunned. Then he quickly bowed to his brother and sister and said, "Caomin has seen Your Highness King Fu, Your Highness Princess Changping."

The fat man looked helpless, but he could only give in. As a nephew in Fang's house, it would be reasonable for the fat man to salute Mr. Fang. But it is different outside. So many people are staring at him. As a prince, he cannot lose the authority and tradition of the royal family. If the fat man called "Uncle Fang" in front of everyone, the Fang family would have to be raided by the imperial guards the next day.

The one whom Mr. Fang could not bear the most was Changping. This girl was very interested in marrying Fang Zheng. If she let her future father-in-law salute her, she would not have a life-long life? How could she marry into the Fang family in the future? So as soon as Mr. Fang bowed, the girl immediately dazzled to the side and hid far away.

Although Feng Jie has known Fang Zheng for so long, she has never met Mr. Fang. After all, with Mr. Fang’s status in the business world, no one can meet him just by wanting to. At this time, Feng Jie Yingying stepped forward and said, “Cui Feng Niang has seen her old boss. The old boss is here in person, and Feng Niang is very grateful.”

Mr. Fang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You are the one who does business with Zheng'er?"

"It's Feng Niang."

Mr. Fang said, "Well, it's not bad, you have responsibility and ability. Women are better than men. Zheng'er is young and has a little bit nonsense. With you reminding me, I will feel relieved."

Changping was unhappy when he heard this, "Boe Fang... Old Master Fang, I still have me here. I will also help Fang Zheng. Just talk if you want someone to ask for money."

Mr. Fang smiled and said, "The princess is joking. The princess is a golden branch and a jade leaf. How can she do such a low-key karma? This is my sin."

Changping's face collapsed when he heard this, and he looked at Fang Zheng with grievance. Fang Zheng did not answer, but only looked at her and smiled.

Feng Jie saw this scene in front of her and couldn't help but feel a little funny. Although there were not many people, each had their own thoughts. I really don't know how to solve this chaotic slap.

Several people chatted at the door for a while, and the guests came one after another. Fang Zheng and Feng Jie became more and more busy. The guests invited were all big shopkeepers of the Jinling business community, big bosses, and from all industries. If everyone hadn't been for the face of the Fang family business, how could this little Ruyuzhai be able to invite them just because of this little Ruyuzhai?

So Fang Zheng and Sister Feng were busy, but Mr. Fang was even busier. After the guests came, they just said a few words to them, encouraged them a few words, and then all came to Mr. Fang. Some of these guests flattered Mr. Fang, while others were humble. Mr. Fang's attitude was lukewarm. Sometimes he smirked, and sometimes he spoke perfunctorily. The shopkeepers did not think it was offensive, and they all took pride in saying a few words to them, and even laughed at him.

Fang Zheng was secretly shocked by watching. He didn't expect that his father would be so glorious in the Jinling business world. When would he be able to reach his father's level, it would be a waste of time to travel through time.

Seeing that everyone left King Fu and Princess aside, Mr. Fang quickly introduced to everyone: "Everyone, everyone, please come and see His Highness King Fu and Princess Changping."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this and quickly bowed. They just focused on flattering Mr. Fang, but they didn't notice that there were two big figures in the crowd. They couldn't help but be afraid of the other party's business. The store opened, and even the princess and the princess could invite them to support them. Several times of the major Chinese businesses in China, who has such a great face? The background of the Fang family's business actually has the court background behind it, which is not simple!

After everyone stood up, they looked like a group of sharks who smelled blood. With a "boom", the fat man and Changping surrounded the middle and disappeared. They sang praises for a moment and flattered him like a tide. The guards of the Fu Palace were so scared that they were worried, holding the hilt of the knife tightly, and were on guard. - Someone would take advantage of the chaos to stab His Highness, King Fu, and even the murderer could not confirm.

The fat man and Changping were squeezed into the crowd and couldn't move. The fat man had a good temper and had no other reaction except for smiling and nodding. Princess Changping didn't have such a good temper. How could this girl be polite to others except Fang Zheng?

Seeing that everyone was still tangling, Changping was furious and said, "Get out of here! Be careful that I will kill your nine clans!" After that, he suddenly woke up and looked at Mr. Fang carefully. Seeing that he stroked his beard and smiled, he seemed to be unfair. He felt relieved.

Seeing that the princess had a bad temper, the bosses retreated far away, and looked up to Mr. Fang with a look of shame.

The fat man wiped his sweat, pulled Fang Zheng aside, and smiled bitterly: "Brother Fang, I have never encountered this situation before. I have opened my eyes today."

Fang Zheng smiled and said, "This is pretty good. You have never seen a businessman negotiate, that's so tragic."

The fat man smiled meaningfully, "Today's scene reminds me of the food chain you once told me."

As he said that, the fat man blinked at the group of people and said, "See? Does this scene look like the self you told me... Oh, the laws of nature? Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp. Now it seems that Brother Fang's words really make sense."

Fang Zheng nodded: "Yes, in fact, humans and animals are the same in some aspects. No matter what circle, they have their rules of the game. If they violate the rules or ignore the rules, the result will inevitably not be accommodated by this circle."

The fat man suddenly said meaningfully: "Brother Fang, in this food chain, which link do you think you belong to? Are you eating others or being eaten by others?"

Fang Zheng was stunned, then smiled and said, "Hehe, I don't have a good appetite, I'm vegetarian."

The fat man said leisurely: "Fresh clothes and angry horses, sleeping among flowers, delicious food and wine, and fragrant with red sleeves. Brother Fang, this kind of life is indeed a pleasant and pleasant day, but how long can you live? One year or two years? Or three or five years? The Fang family's industry is so large, if there is no power or power, how can you protect it? Take your Fang family as an example, in the territory of our Huachao, which link in the food chain? Maybe it is a glorious now, but if there is no strong person to support it, how many years do you think the Fang family can be glorious? Maybe you haven't thought about this question yet, but I'm sure Uncle Fang must have thought about it, and the hidden worries are getting deeper. If you don't believe it, you can ask your uncle."

Fang Zheng was stunned. The fat man and him were always laughing and joking, and had never said these words to him solemnly. I have to admit that these words make sense, and Fang Zheng had not thought about it. He was just too lazy to think about it, or he was unwilling to think about it.

After traveling to this strange era, Fang Zheng set himself not high goals. As long as he had money to spend, had girls to pick up, and life was comfortable, why should he pursue those irrelevant power? He read history books, naturally knew that from ancient times to the present, there were many powerful officials and ministers who had been powerful and powerful, and they once called for the leaders and ministers, and had turned their backs and laughed at the court. But how many of these people could end up well? In the end, they were either chopped down or put in prison, and there were only a few who could start and end well. Maybe they themselves didn't want to be too eye-catching, but once they reached a certain position, many things were unruly and had to be done. Even if you don't, someone would help you do it. It's not easy to keep your head hidden in the officialdom!

Fang Zheng doesn't want to be an official. After all, he is still a fear of the imperial power deep in his heart. No matter how powerful the emperor is, you can be destroyed by just one word from the emperor. Only a fool is willing to live such a frightened life.

But what the fat man said today touched him. Yes, can you keep peace if you don’t get involved in the officialdom? As the saying goes, officials and businessmen are inseparable from businessmen. The Fang family’s industry is indeed huge enough now, but the Fang family has no backer to rely on in the officialdom. No matter how big the industry is, it is just a mirage. One day the officials are unhappy, the Fang family will collapse when they say it. What should we do then? Help the elderly father and mother to go out to beg for food?

Maybe he can lean on the big tree of Fatty. After all, he is the prince. It is not difficult to protect a mere merchant family. But Fang Zheng doesn't want such things to be mixed with the fat man. Friendship is friendship. If friends are related to interests, then are they still friends?

After thinking so much, Fang Zheng didn't feel a headache. He hadn't thought about things so seriously for a long time, and his IQ seemed to show signs of deterioration.

"Fatty, can we not talk about this today? I have to think about it carefully."

"Okay, haha, it's not suitable to talk about this today. Please entertain guests well, don't neglect them."

Seeing Fang Zheng frowning and distressedly walking towards the guests who congratulated him, a trace of a sneering smile appeared on the fat man's face.

At this time, a shopkeeper saw that the customers were almost here, so he lit the firecrackers that had already been hanging above the door. It was very lively for a while. The auspicious time had arrived. Fang Zheng and Feng Jie, surrounded by everyone, grabbed a plaque hanging high above the door of the store, and slowly pulled down. Three large black-backed golden characters were exposed on the plaque, "Ru Yuzhai".

Mr. Fang said to everyone at the right time: "Everyone, I believe everyone knows that the branch of Ruyuzhai opened today contains members of our Fang business. On weekdays, I will leave it to the dog. I hope that the major merchants in Jinling City will take care of and support them in the future. I thank you here!" After that, Mr. Fang bowed to everyone.

How to say this sentence, Mr. Fang had been thinking for a long time, and later decided to try not to mention Fengjie. In the eyes of the owner of the business owner in Jinling City, he would think that the Fang family business accounted for the majority, and it would also shock those business rivals who had bad intentions towards Ruyuzhai. In this way, if they became afraid, they would probably have less trouble in the future.

Sister Feng didn't care whether Mr. Fang mentioned her or not. In her opinion, it was good to enjoy the cool air by leaning against a big tree. Mr. Fang said this just in line with her. Anyway, what she wanted was profit, not those empty names.

The shopkeepers nodded and turned to congratulate Fang Zheng and Feng Jie. Fang Zheng and Feng Jie also responded to the gifts one by one, bowing in circles. Fang Zheng felt his face froze and his hands were sore. It seemed that the festive event of opening the business was also a physical job.

It was already tired, but Princess Changping was unwilling to be lonely and followed Fang Zheng's butt. Seeing Fang Zheng only greetings to the owners who came to congratulate her, and neglected her, Changping couldn't help but pout, looking like a young wife who was wronged. If any shopkeeper said a few more words to Fang Zheng, Changping would stare at Fang Zheng fiercely, which made the guests frightened. He wiped his cold sweat and turned around and left, which made Fang Zheng smile bitterly. He didn't want to get angry at Changping on a great day, so he had to let it go.
