Chapter 567 The second most capable person in Xiaoan Village
Yan Laoer's thoughts were changing rapidly.
To put it bluntly, buying coal in Xizhou is essentially a business.
Coal is in short supply.
Party B's needs are urgent, and Party A's needs are more difficult to deal with.
When you think about it this way, it becomes much easier to understand.
The Crown Prince came forward to communicate with the upper management. He could not do everything himself, and there needed to be some people below him to do the work.
This is the spot he strives for.
So at this time, what he has to do is to show his advantages to the big boss.
Yan Laoer's chat box opened up.
"...We walked from our hometown in Qishan based on a mileage map. Most of the people in the village have never traveled far. Now that I think about it, we are also very lucky. Although there were many twists and turns on the road, we still walked safely to the pass.
State."
"It's cold here, but it's hot in my hometown. I don't know what God thinks. It's so good to be even. I didn't expect that the charcoal-burning method recorded in the old book I bought earlier will come in handy."
Your Majesty, you are aware that our family has not made any shady money. We are responsible for burning charcoal and selling charcoal... That's right, these businessmen are cunning. If we really sell at a low price and cannot benefit ordinary people, the big ones will be taken care of.
, I flip a lot in the middle and sell it again, I don’t know what the price will be.
After all, there is still not enough firewood... I heard that the prince is going to Xizhou to buy coal. If we can transport coal at this juncture, we can lower the price of charcoal. Oh, that would be great!" Mr. Yan
Er said expectantly.
The King of England quite liked listening to Yan Huaian's chatter.
Mainly because I had preconceptions and knew that he was a talkative person, so it didn’t feel too out of the ordinary.
When I first heard it, I felt it was a bit rustic, and the local accent was a bit too strong.
Totally unlike any scholar he had ever seen.
But listen and listen, there is not a false word in Yan Huaian's mouth, he is telling the truth. What he said is what they experienced during their escape from famine and the business they started after arriving in Guanzhou.
The King of England gradually listened.
While listening, I was still sighing, this Yan Huaian has really experienced a lot.
The name of his brother Yan Huaiwen appeared several times during this period, which left a deep impression on him.
According to Yan Huaian's account, it was his brother Yan Huaiwen who had the big idea, and he and other villagers cooperated.
Yan Huaiwen can be said to be the pinnacle of Xiao'an Village.
It was rare for the King of England to meet a man who was well-informed and loquacious. Sitting on the warm fire bed, eating delicious vegetables and rice, Yan Huaian went out for a while, and came back with two small jars of wine with a shy look on his face, and carefully gave them to him
Pour...
He took a sip. It was not strong enough and a bit sour. No matter how tight the palace was, this was the first time the King of England had tasted such bad wine.
But... coupled with the nagging voice in my ears, I feel okay.
…
"Is your father going to drink something for the prince?" Wang Deshan looked through the window of the opposite room and asked softly.
Yan Yu chuckled: "The prince is an honored guest. If an honored guest comes to your door, why don't we treat him well and eat him well?"
"What's your plan?" Wang Deshan asked with a chuckle.
At first, only the waiter and her father were talking. Later, you could gradually hear the prince talking, and their voices became louder and louder. Occasionally, they were mixed with some laughter, and you knew that the two of them were chatting happily.
Therefore, none of them bothered me.
It is rare for the prince to be so happy.
"Master, our family is currently paying for the firewood in Yongning City, and the pressure is too great!" Yan Yu said miserably: "If we can't buy the coal back, or if we don't buy enough, our family's business will be over.
collapse!
I learned arithmetic and business knowledge from my father. As soon as he finished the exam, he, a famous scholar, took my account, which made me very angry. God, you can feel my father's enthusiasm. I hope the prince will do the same.
You can feel that my father... wants to go to Xizhou with the crown prince, but he won't feel relieved if he doesn't see the coal pulled back with his own eyes." Yan Yu lowered his head slightly and whispered: "If it weren't for my little inconvenience to follow, I would also
I want to go, I hope we can keep the reputation our charcoal farm has built up with great effort this time."
Wang Deshan squinted his eyes and asked uncertainly: "Is it that serious?"
Yan Yu nodded as if pounding garlic.
"It's quite serious. If you want to do business for a long time, you rely on your reputation. We and the nearby charcoal farm have already taken away the business by lowering the price, so it is difficult for it to rise again. With this rise, other companies will follow up and sell again. We
What's the difference between us and them? Besides, the price of charcoal this year is already very scary, and it really can't go up.
We are a new charcoal market. If we go up and down at times, and go back on our word, it will be difficult for us to gain a foothold in the market in the future.
The current charcoal storage can still last for a while, mainly relying on firewood subsidies, and relief points throughout the city also help share some of the burden. In fact, not only our family, but also the charcoal storage of various charcoal farms does not have much charcoal storage.
…
Sir, we are worried that the price of charcoal will rise again, and we are even more worried that there will be no charcoal to sell on the market..."
Wang Deshan's eyes narrowed, his face remained calm, and he only nodded slightly.
"Uncle Wang, would you like some more?" Qi Wu asked in a low voice.
Wang Deshan turned around and saw Qi Wu holding a large bowl of overcooked wide noodles.
"I'm full, you can eat." Wang Deshan said kindly.
"Xiaoer, you eat." Qi Wu didn't have to ask her if she was hungry. We were all the same, the only difference was their size.
"Hey!" Yan Yu happily took the bowl, walked over quickly, and scooped out the brine for himself from the basin.
While slurping the noodles, he pointed at Qi Da who was still cutting the noodles with a knife.
"Uncle Qi, please make the knife narrower. That's right. This is just right. Otherwise, it will be too wide and difficult to fit into your mouth... ah ah ah ah... this pot took a little long to cook. It's okay. It's delicious.
, let’s look at the next pot together. If it is cooked less, it will definitely be stronger than this pot!”
Qi Da and Qi Wu attached great importance to the improvement suggestions put forward by the waiter and nodded repeatedly.
Yan Laoer accompanied the prince to have dinner, but it was so hard for them that he had to cook noodles by himself.
Fortunately, Yan Laoer made the sauce in advance.
Waiter knows how to knead dough, Qi Xue learns how to roll and cut it, Qi Wu learns how to cook...
After much stumbling, I finally got it out.
…
"This Yan Huai'an keeps talking about his elder brother. I am not sure how talented Yan Huaiwen is, but Huai'an knows the direction, can read pictures, understand economics, and is good at socializing with people..." The King of England was full of alcohol and his eyes were blurry.
, said: "Wang Deshan, what do you think, let this Yan Huaian go to Xizhou with the prince?"
Wang Deshan pretended to be hesitant: "Your Majesty, the prince has packed his gear and ordered his troops. The trip is about to start tomorrow. Is it too hasty..."
The King of England thought for a while and said with a smile: "Hurry is just Yan Huaian. I want to see if he can really do things or if he is bragging to me. You don't know. He calls himself the leader of Xiao'an Village."
Apart from his brother, he is the second most capable man. Haha, this time I bought coal in Xizhou, I just happened to know a thing or two..."
Wang Deshan said hurriedly: "The old slave immediately sent someone to the Yan family to deliver a message, asking Xiaoer's father to set off with the prince early tomorrow morning."
