For three days in a row, the courtyard was overcrowded, and even merchants from the surrounding areas of Shouchun came one after another. The discerning vendors immediately set up their stalls not far from the courtyard. Especially those selling food, business was surprisingly good.
.
After being strongly recommended by Huo Jin, Erya followed Su Ren to Shouchun. She was Su Ren's cook. Under Su Ren's instigation, the day after a long queue formed outside the courtyard, she set up shop right opposite the gate.
A stall selling noodles with meat was set up. In order to increase the popularity of Erya's business, Su Ren would send Huang Shisan or Man Niu to Erya's stall early in the morning when there were the most people to sell more than ten
A flatbread stuffed with meat, and sometimes Su Ren would appear in person.
Sure enough, this trick worked very well. Erya's stall was the last to be opened but the earliest to be closed, and it also made the most money. The business was good and she was a woman, so naturally there were people interested in Erya. But wait until the next day.
After several guys who wanted to collect money had their hands and feet broken, no one dared to go wild at Erya's stall anymore. Even as long as Erya called out and queued up, both the common people and those who brought money behaved themselves.
Stand still, even if you don't buy it in the end, you will still have a smile on your face.
The few idle children in the backyard helped Erya, and Erya didn't use it in vain. They gave her a few dollars a day as wages, which made the children's parents very happy. When they saw Erya again, they felt a little sweet.
As an out-and-out Guanzhong person, Su Ren’s desire for Roujiamo is something that can never be erased from the depths of his memory. Without high-quality flour, you cannot make crispy and chewy Toto Mo, so you can only use this steamed flour.
Pancakes are substituted, and the taste is not very authentic, but at least it is a little bit interesting. Standing next to Erya's stall, eating the flour pancakes with meat one bite at a time, not caring about the oily mouth.
Someone who knew Su Ren began to joke: "Mr. Su, you actually like this? With your strength, you can't get what you want to eat? It's not the way to be an official to compete with us for Miss Erya's food."
Su Ren laughed loudly: "How can I be an official? In the past, let alone meat, I couldn't even eat such good bread. Man, no matter how rich I am, I still can't forget the first time I ate the most delicious bread."
thing."
Everyone nodded. Another person said: "Mr. Su, you said that you and we are both in business. Why are you so able to make money, but we don't have this knack?"
Su Ren laughed again and said: "Human beings are not the same! Some people can be officials, and some people can only be slaves. Have you never thought about why others can be high officials, but you can't? It can be summed up in two words.
,vision!"
"vision?"
"Yes! It's vision!" Su Rensan stuffed all the noodles and meat into his mouth, took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands: "What is vision? Let me give you an analogy." After searching around,
Picked up three clods of soil, came to the steps in front of the door, picked up one and placed it on the first step: "This is you. You can only see the first step. This is the world's wealthy businessman, who can see the third step."
Two steps, I...!" Su Ren paused and threw the third clod far away with a whoosh. He almost hit a servant in line and fell to the ground and turned into powder: "My vision is only that far away.
, do you think I can make more money than you?"
The naked show off made everyone feel uncomfortable after hearing it. After being stunned for a blink of an eye, someone quickly cheered with eloquent words. With a smile on his face, he said to Su Ren: "Mr. Su is saying that we do not have your
With your vision, I beg you to bring us with you so that we can make a lot of money together."
Su Ren laughed loudly and pointed his thumb at the man: "Okay, based on your words, I will be the first to collect your money today!"
The gate of the courtyard opened. Hou Yong spread his legs and stood at the door. Suddenly he saw Su Ren sitting on the steps. Su Ren smiled, pointed at the guy who cooperated with him just now, and said to Hou Yong: "Today he is
First!"
In the envious eyes of everyone, the boy bowed his hands to his colleagues around him, bowed his head and followed Su Ren into the yard. The accountant had already set up his posture, and the payment, slips, silk, and pen and ink were already prepared. They
They were all borrowed by Su Ren, and they would be given wages every day they worked. Compared to the original place, although the work here was a bit tiring, they earned more, so they naturally welcomed those who brought money with a smile.
After registering a person, someone will immediately follow that person to pick up copper coins or gold. They must check on the spot to make sure there are no problems. They will be issued a voucher written on silk cloth, and everything will be settled clearly. Holding the silk cloth in their hands, those who sent money
I am happily waiting to collect the money next month according to the date on the silk cloth.
This is for small businessmen, and those big businessmen are naturally different. They bring a lot of money, and it takes a long time to count them all, and if there can be no mistakes, it will naturally take longer. For this reason, Su Renrang
Tables, chairs and food were prepared in the side hall of the other courtyard, and all the big businessmen gathered here to wait. While eating and drinking, they talked about the current situation and looked forward to how much bonus they would get next month, which was also to show off to others.
What kind of rich man will you become?
Sang Yuji is the representative of Liu Hong, so he naturally belongs to the big businessmen, and he is still the largest businessman. He does not need to queue up outside the gate, he has someone to arrange everything for him and get everything done. The person waiting in the side hall is
That piece of silk cloth. Everyone knew that he was Liu Hong's spokesperson. As soon as they saw him, everyone immediately felt relieved. Since the King of Huainan believed in Su Ren, why did they not trust him?
"Shopkeeper Sang, how much have you brought today?" A merchant who was familiar with Sang Yuji approached him and asked mysteriously.
Sang Yuji glanced at the man: "It's hard to say, not to mention it's better that you don't know about this."
The merchant smiled: "You really shouldn't know. Didn't Shopkeeper Sang add your personal treasures to this? What I'm asking is how much did you bring?"
"How much did you bring?" Sang Yuji asked back.
The man smiled and stretched out his big hand: "No more, no less, a full fifty gold! How about it?"
"Fifty gold is indeed a lot! I don't have as much money as you, I only have ten gold."
"Oh? Shopkeeper Sang doesn't seem to trust Mr. Su? Or maybe it was that trip to Jiangsu that made shopkeeper Sang so strapped?"
Sang Yuji frowned: "How do you know that?"
"Although the Fifth Young Master looks down on me and others, the Jiangsu trip did not take us, but I lost a lot. What happened at the foot of Qingyun Mountain is no longer a secret. Cang Lang is well fed this time. The largest ten in Huainan
Several merchants succeeded in one fell swoop. They didn't even have one thousand gold, but they had eight hundred, right? Shopkeeper Sang didn't have any money, so it's okay!" He didn't whisper these words, and everyone on the side heard them clearly, and many people's faces
With a gloating expression.
Sang Yuji rolled his eyes: "You don't need to worry about this!"
The man laughed again: "Of course I don't have to worry about it, it's not my money, right?" A few laughed along with the man, which made Sang Yuji look at him angrily.
Su Ren returned to the room, drank some water, stretched, and sat down on the chair. Today's performance was over. He was the most leisurely person in the whole courtyard. Even Huang Shisan and Man
Niu Daoyao went out to support the scene when Hou Yong was too busy, while Su Ren only had to look after Erya every morning, and he had nothing to do the rest of the time.
As the amount of money increased, the small treasury could no longer hold it. It was not so much that there was much, but that most of the money brought was copper coins. The quantity and weight were large, but the actual number was pitifully small. Let Cui Jiuming luck.
Both times, this guy complained, feeling that transporting copper coins was a waste of transportation capacity and should be exchanged for gold in Shouchun City. However, he did not want to think about who has so much gold in Shouchun City today.
After eating a few greasy pancakes with meat and a cup of tea, I felt better. Han Qing crossed his hands and walked in: "There is no movement in the Huainan Prince's Palace. Did they smell something?"
Su Ren thought for a while: "It is indeed possible. I told Liu Hong a lot that day. The effect of covering the cloudy mountain with a little fog should be better."
"What if King Huainan doesn't take the bait?"
"Then we can only wait until the end of the month and try again. It's really not good for Liu An."
Han Qing sighed: "That's all we can do. Jiyu just reported that the money belonging to the Huainan Palace has been found out. It's about 50,000 gold. Excluding daily expenses, Liu An can use no less than 30,000 gold. All of them
Place it in the palace treasury and keep it under strict guard. No one except Liu An himself is allowed to come within ten steps."
"So careful? How would Mr. Han feel if it was set on fire?"
Han Qing smiled: "That's all gold, what will happen if you burn it?"
"What about grabbing it?"
"Sir, you are joking again. Liu An is so nervous about his money. Even if we can get out of the palace, Shouchun City, and Huainan Kingdom, we can't escape with just our small manpower, let alone with such
Much gold."
Su Ren shook his head and sighed: "I'm really unwilling. How much is thirty thousand gold!"
For half a month, someone sent money every day. According to Su Ren's instructions, only merchants, powerful people, and wealthy people could send money in. No ordinary people doing small business were allowed to enter. This almost caused Shouchun to suffer.
During the second turmoil, thanks to Liu An's timely dispatch of troops to block the streets, the trouble was avoided. When the merchants, powerful men, and powerful men had all given away their money, the other courtyard finally returned to its previous calm.
The data reported by Cui Jiuming was compared with the data recorded by the accountants who collected the money. There was no error. Su Ren gave each of the accountants a big red envelope and sent them away politely.
, and began to wait patiently for what will happen in half a month.
With everyone's expectations, we finally waited until the end of the month, and tomorrow is the time to distribute dividends. Many people were so excited that they couldn't sleep tonight. Most of the money had been taken away by Cui Jiuming, and the remaining money was only enough for tomorrow.
The dividends distributed. Regardless of whether he could wait for the money sent by Liu Hong this time, Su Ren decided to retreat. Three days ago, he had received the order from the court in a very tough tone, asking him to return to Chang'an as soon as possible. He did not know that there was something wrong in Chang'an.
