Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 468
While talking, Zhang Shiqiang had already walked into the room, and said to Wang Tong with a smile:
"My lord, I really didn't expect such a coincidence. I was looking at the tax card by the river. Master Dong came to look for him as soon as he got off the boat. His subordinates brought him over and he was already waiting in the living room. My lord, go and see him now?"

Wang Tong also stood up with a smile, and was about to speak, but stopped, and asked:
"Dong Qianhu came to look for you on his own initiative?"

Zhang Shiqiang nodded, Wang Tong shook his head lightly, and asked again:

"How does he look?"

The question was vague, Zhang Shiqiang paused before he realized it, pondered and said:

"The politeness in the conversation is still the same as last time, but I always feel a little impatient..."

"Well, go to the front hall and tell me that I have official business to do, please Dong Qianhu settle down first."

Wang Tong pondered for a while, and ordered his personal guards to report to the front. Zhang Shiqiang knew that Wang Tong had sent Tan Bing to Shandong to find Dong Qianhu a few days ago. Why did the other party come to the door today? Asked, Wang Tong said with a smile:

"He came to see you in a hurry, presumably because he wanted something from this official, to whet his appetite and whet his mind, so that it would be easier to talk about things when the time comes."

When Zhang Shiqiang thought about it, he also laughed. The personal guard went to the front and did not mention it. Wang Tong did have official business here. The alkali shop, the insurance shop, the shops controlled by Wang Tongneng, people with the name of the shopkeeper, and the head of the shopkeeper are all gathered here.

It was said that Wang Tong was going to personally arrange matters with them, everyone wondered in their hearts, thinking that your lord is just a young military officer who can understand business, so why should he arrange things for shops.

Wang Tong's various business plans and arrangements were notified to the upper echelons of the various companies, and these middle managers seldom participated, so they didn't know Wang Tong's ability in this area at all.

Each family is a member of the same system. They don't know each other, but they all know that they are their own family members. They are extremely busy on weekdays and don't have a chance to meet each other. This time they were called here, and it was very lively to greet each other.

The guard at the door announced that when Mr. Wang arrived, the room suddenly fell silent, Wang Tong walked in, everyone got up and greeted, and then Wang Tong began to speak.

After the first two sentences, there was still a bit of noise, but after a few words, the room was extremely quiet again. After the guards outside stood for a while, they exchanged glances with their companions, and opened the door slightly to look at it. Rest assured to continue to stand guard.

There were dozens of people in the big house, but it was as quiet as if there was no one there. They only heard Wang Tong's eloquent talk, which surprised the guards outside.

I opened the door and took a peek, only to find that these shopkeepers were all in charge, listening with wide-eyed eyes, lest they miss a word or miss a word.

The guards didn't know what Wang Tong meant, but they were amazed in their hearts, our adults are different, we even have such ability to do business.

Such a quiet "classroom atmosphere" lasted for less than an hour, and was interrupted by the guards in front. The guards who came from the living room first knocked on the door, and waited for Wang Tong to come out before saying in a low voice:

"Master Dong didn't go to the inn to settle down, he stayed in the living room, and now he is in a hurry to see you."

Wang Tong talked eloquently in the room, and he was refreshed. Hearing that Dong Chuangxi was so eager to see him, he was in a better mood. He waved his hand with a smile and said:
"Just say that the official is meeting some distinguished guests from the capital. Don't wait for Mr. Dong today. It's better to settle down early. In a few days, the official will go to see him."

Wang Tong is indeed happy to teach. He used to give such lectures to others often. Nowadays, many simple things can be used in this era by changing their appearance. Look at the "business elites" of Ming Dynasty who are eagerly listening to the lectures. There was a great sense of satisfaction in his heart when he was shocked, bewildered and suddenly realized, followed by a look of admiration on his face.

However, this sense of satisfaction and happiness could not last long, because Dong Chuangxi, who was waiting in the living room, had not left, and had been sending people over to see him.

"My lord, Dong Qianhu said that he has a private letter from Ge Lao Mansion Upper Seven..."

"...My lord, Dong Qianhu gave his subordinate a door bag of ten taels of silver, please run away again..."

"...My lord, Dong Qianhu has already cried, saying that if my lord doesn't go, my life will be at stake..."

If it is said that human life is at stake, then he would not have taken out You Qi's letterhead at the beginning, and pretended to be calm and waited there at the beginning, Wang Tong ignored it at all.

Mr. Zhang Ge's elder follower You Qi, when he reported this name, it really resounded throughout the capital. For the officials of the fourth rank, this name was even louder than Mr. Zhang Gel himself. The characters in the sky are usually not seen once, but You Qi can see them, can deliver things, and can beg for help. Naturally, everyone likes such a character and regards it as a remarkable person.

But others care, but Wang Tong doesn't care. It's a completely different system. Although Zhang Ge is in charge of the world, it is not so easy to touch Wang Tong.

But what is Dong Chuangxi so anxious about, it makes Wang Tong very surprised. If it is an official promotion or transfer, it may not be of much help. What, Wang Tong was also puzzled.

Puzzled and puzzled, Wang Tong only said one sentence to the guard:

"I said that the officer went out and came back very late..."

***********
"Listening to what the old man said today is really better than studying for ten years."

"It's not just ten years, I've been doing business for decades, and today I've figured out something..."

"All of us can't go outside and talk nonsense, and go back and pass it on to our sons and grandchildren. This thing can be used by our ancestors for generations, and we will make a fortune for a lifetime!"

"It's, it's..."

This lecture really talked about it getting dark. After the dispersal, the shopkeepers and managers who came all had their eyes glowing, excitedly discussing non-stop. Wang Tong was quite complacent when he saw the following effect, and said loudly:
"Now that everyone has understood and figured it out, we will implement it step by step according to the schedule from tomorrow."

Before he finished speaking, a man suddenly stood up and took two steps forward. When everyone thought it was an assassin, the man knelt down with a plop, and begged on the ground:

"Master, I have an unfeeling request. I have listened to all the villains said today, and I think it is very useful, but there are many things I don't understand. The master is busy with work and young people know it, but if such a wonderful theory is not If you understand it or not, it’s a waste of money, can you please take the time to explain it to the younger ones.”

Many "new principles" are indeed useful, but their acceptance is limited. These businessmen don't understand, so they write them down, but because of the difference between master and servant, they don't dare to ask, and they want to go back and think about it slowly. Of course, Wang Tongruo It is best to be willing to interpret and explain.

Everyone just listened to the lecture and all had a judgment. The more you understand what Wang Tong said, the bigger the business you will do in the future, and you will make money.

Even if this person doesn't ask, someone will always get up and ask. Wang Tong was stunned, looked at the person below, nodded, and said with a smile:

"If you don't understand anything, write a post to ask, and the officer will answer as soon as possible!!"

Hearing this promise, all the people listening to the class here stood up and bowed down, thanking them non-stop.

************
It was already late at night, and Wang Tong had dinner in the back courtyard, and the guards serving in the front hall also learned a lot, Dong Chuangxi never left, and every time he begged him to come to Wang Tong, he just left Walk around the living room here, and then go back.

Wang Tong waited another hour after dinner, if Dong Chuangxi stayed any longer and discussed with the master so late, it would be rude of him, and he just said goodbye and left.

"Send someone to follow Dong Qianhu to the inn to see what he has to say to his cronies at night."

After Wang Tong gave this order, he ignored the matter, and Gu Zibin came to explain what he ordered yesterday.

Since joining Wang Tong, Gu Zibin's business has become bigger and bigger, and his figure that was fine has gained a lot. Now it is hot at the end of June and the beginning of July. A sin wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and after wiping a few times, he opened his mouth and said:
"The price of white sugar is about 35 to [-] yuan a catty in Tianjin Wei and Jingshi. The prices of brown sugar and brown sugar are lower. Brown sugar can reach [-] yuan a catty. If it is rock sugar, it is about [-] yuan a tael." ...there is more white sugar and brown sugar from the south...When these goods are unloaded from the ship, the wholesale price is about [-] ren per catty..."

It is true that there is double the profit that can be made, and it is similar to the profit of ordinary sea trade, but it is much worse than that of alkali. The price of rock sugar is so high, but I did not expect it. Wang Tong nodded, but this Compared to other goods, it's nothing, since it's useless to do it, just follow along to make money.

Just as Wang Tong wanted to say something else, Gu Zibin continued to say while wiping his sweat:
"My lord, but there is a strange thing. I heard from people in the Fujian shop that it takes a lot of trouble to ship it to us to make double the money. If it is shipped to Nanyang, it will have five times the profit. If it is shipped to the country of Japan The side also has more than four times, counting the profits brought back, earning more, making money but not earning, I don’t know why it is like this?”

It is contrary to common sense to have money but not make money, Wang Tong was a little more wary, but Gu Zibin was very excited, and said there again:
"The dozens of boats given over there are a great help. The small ones have already arranged for the shops below to stock up. This year, we can go to Liao Town a few more times."

************
On the second day of July, as soon as Wang Tong's mansion opened, Dong Chuangxi came to visit him. This time, Wang Tong didn't hide, and invited him in directly. Dong Chuangxi was still calm, and after the politeness, he talked about gossip:

"When I came to the mansion today, I saw a carriage pulling a big sign on the street, and I didn't know what to do?"
