Chapter 248 Five-Year Inventory of Wuzhai Fort

Facing the cheering people on both sides of the street, Huang Laifu was quite satisfied, and kept bowing and waving to all directions.

I haven't come back for some time, and the streets of Wuzhaibao are much more prosperous.Today's Wuzhai Fort is a place where grain, oil and furs in Northwest Shanxi are concentrated. There are various grain companies, and the streets are full of all kinds of gold-lettered high cards, with various "pretends" fluttering in the wind.

The largest grain store in the fort is the Baolongyuan grain store in Qujia, Qixian County. Together with Xisheng store, Dehe store, Shuanghe store, Deyicheng store, Shixing store and other large and small grain stores, they synthesized The name of Jujinshe.The company has more than 1000 members, all of which are well-known local grain stores in Wuzhaibao. They specialize in grain wholesale. There are more than [-] members in total, and they sell Wuzhaibao's grains to various places.The president of the firm is Qu Yuanrui.

In addition, inside and outside the fort, there is also a Huide Society specializing in soap, paper, incense sticks, candles, etc.Fuhusha specializes in grinding noodles.Wanshengshe specializes in melons, fruits and vegetables.Shengyishe specializes in coal.Pawnbrokers specializing in pawns, etc.

The frequent traffic between Wuzhai Fort and non-local freight has led to the emergence of some camel companies specializing in valet transportation in Wuzhai Fort, such as Shuangde Kui Camel Company.Societies that specialize in goods stores, such as Tianrongshe.There are goods stores under the name of the company, such as Dexing store, Tongshun store, Dongsheng store, and Kuilong store. These stores have their own warehouses. The goods stored in the store generally cost [-] catties per load, and the warehouse rental fee is three yuan. regardless of the duration of the deposit.

There is also the cooperation between Wuzhai Fort and Beyond the Great Wall, the development and sales of the wool textile industry, and many related industries have emerged in Wuzhai Fort.

For example, Jushengshe specializes in all kinds of woolen clothing, cashmere products, underwear, etc. produced by Wuzhaibao Woolen Mill. It has more than [-] members such as Yongsheng Store, Tianshun Store, Jusheng Store, and Juxing Store.These stores and sales outlets are distributed in many places in Jin Province and other provinces.

Surrounding the Wuzhaibao Woolen Mill, many additional industries appeared around it, such as felt blanket clubs.There are more than a dozen households under his name, including members Tianchengyuan, Jinfengyong, and Zhongyuanyong, who specialize in weaving and selling tapestry and carpets.There is Fuxing Society, which specializes in cattle and sheep shops.There are raw hide clubs, which are engaged in the purchase and sale of raw hides.There is Jigisha, which consists of shops specializing in leather boots.Weizhen Club specializes in leather hats, leather jackets, leather pants, leather robes, etc.Most of the leather processed by the company is cowhide, horsehide, and sheepskin. There are also high-priced leather products such as otter, wolf, and mink, and the selling price is also very expensive.

In the past few years, the money bank industry in Wuzhaibao has also developed rapidly. In addition to the big bank in Wuzhaibao, many money shops and banks have also appeared in the surrounding areas.There are Xingshenghao, Yuanchengsheng, Yongxinghao, Jiquanchang, Shihengyi, Henghexiang, Dechenghao, etc., which are a useful supplement to the big bank of Wuzhaibao.

The above-mentioned firms in Wuzhaibao are divided by industry. Each club has its own charter, and a person who is familiar with business and has a reputation in the business world is selected from among the members as the head of the club to mediate disputes within the club and formulate rules.These club leaders all formed the Wuzhaibao Chamber of Commerce to study the activities of the chamber of commerce, deal with business disputes, collect taxes on behalf of them, and formulate business regulations.The chairman is still Qu Yuanrui.

From the 18th year of Wanli to this year, Qu Yuanrui has been the chairman of the chamber of commerce for five years. However, his father, Qu Tingzhu, has been active in the past two years. He intends to be elected as the chairman of the chamber of commerce next year. President.In fact, Qu Yuanrui was the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and many people were dissatisfied. However, because Huang Laifu admired and trusted Qu Yuanrui, his position in Wuzhaibao was still very stable.

Walking on the street, seeing the bustling business and the strong New Year atmosphere at the end of the street, Huang Laifu was very moved.

These companies have all developed with the development of Wuzhai Fort in these years. All walks of life can be said to cover everything. It can be said that it is not easy to develop like this in just six years.

Regarding the business of Wuzhai Fort, Huang Laifu has never paid much attention to it, and just let it develop. Facts have proved that as long as farming is prosperous and there is a good environment, local business development is a natural thing.The current Wuzhaibao business has its own vitality and life, and it can move in a good direction without Huang Laifu's guidance.

With such a mood, under the guard of the elite Laifu camp soldiers, the chariots and horses of Huang Laifu and others headed for Huang Mansion in a mighty way.After the striker came to Fuying to guard the Festival flag, Huang Laifu and Gu Yunniang walked side by side.

The current Huang Laifu is much more mature than a few years ago, and the beard on his lips has become thicker.Gu Yunniang rode beside him, also in a heroic manner.The two of them can be said to be talented and beautiful. Along the way, they attracted many admiring eyes and pointed fingers.

Behind them were the Wuzhai Fort soldiers led by Jiang Dazhong, surrounded by Huang Laifu.Armored heavily, iron hoofs beating, full of iron-blooded and heroic aura.Such an army, young and strong, can give people a sense of security.

Behind, there is a continuous line of chariots and horses, among them are a group of people from the Huangfu.

Along the way, with the arrival of Huang Laifu, I don't know how many admiring gazes have been attracted, those businessmen who came to Wuzhaibao from other places have heard of Huang Laifu's name for a long time, and everyone is excited to see him today, just like Wuzhaibao The appearance of the locals cheered for Huang Laifu and others.Huang Laifu was also immediately paying tribute to the surrounding people.

In the midst of the bustle, the chariots and horses came to the front of Huang's mansion. Although Huang Laifu's general mansion is in Ningwuguan, the locals in Wuzhaibao still affectionately call Huang's mansion the general town mansion.

When they came to the gate, the drums and music in front of the mansion sounded together, and Steward Yang led a large group of servants and maids to greet him at the gate.Not seen for some time, Yang Butler got older again.

Seeing Huang Laifu, Steward Yang was a little excited, he choked up and bowed to Huang Laifu, "Master..."

Huang Laifu was a little moved. After he left, Huang Lingbin was now an elderly man in Huang's mansion. Outside the house, it could be said that he relied on Yang Butler to make arrangements. Under the heavy pressure, he was haggard.

He helped Steward Yang up and said, "Uncle Yang, you have worked hard all these years!"

Steward Yang said: "See what the young master says, this is what an old servant should do!"
He wiped away his tears, and said to a group of servants from the side: "What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you welcome the young master and the young lady in?"

A group of maids and maids nearby reacted and rushed to welcome Huang Laifu and others in.

After entering the hall, everyone sat down and chattered for a while.The eldest sister, Huang Zirou, couldn't bear it the most, and said to Huang Laifu: "Brother, you said to bring gifts to the sisters, what kind of gifts are they, quickly take them out and have a look!"

Gu Yunniang smiled and said: "Don't worry, elder sister, this gift is for everyone!"

As she spoke, she ordered a few times, and immediately several of her maids opened some boxes and cages, which were full of silk, brocade silk, white silk cloth, Korean cloth, Western cloth and so on.There are also many local products of Ningwuguan, such as some carpets, astragalus, and some silver plate mushrooms.

Gu Yunniang went one by one, directing well and calmly, from sisters to nieces and nieces, nephews and nieces, everyone had a share, and the hall was full of joy.And Liu Erniu also got a gift, but said shyly to Huang Laifu: "Thank you brother-in-law!"

It made Gu Yunniang look good at her for a while.

Huang Laifu sat for a while, and was satisfied to see that Gu Yunniang handled the affairs of the inner courtyard in an orderly manner, so he went back to the room to wash his face.Liu Huan and Meiyue personally held the basin and handkerchiefs to serve them.Huang Laifu took advantage while washing his face.It made the second daughter happy and ashamed.Soon Gu Yunniang also came in, took over the work of the second daughter, and came to serve Huang Laifu herself.

When they got to the hall, everyone was quiet, and then Huang Laifu's sons, led by their mother, came to salute Huang Laifu in order from oldest to youngest, from concubine to concubine.

Now Huang Laifu has five sons, Gu Yunniang's eldest son Huang Dalang is over three years old, Liu Yumei's son Huang Erlang, Liu Huan's son Huang Sanlang, Meiyue's son Huang Silang are all over two years old, only Qu Xiuhe The son Huang Wulang gave birth to is more than one year old, and his speech is still not very clear.And why he gave birth to sons, Huang Laifu is not very clear.

Several sons kowtowed to Huang Laifu one by one, calling them daddy.Huang Laifu nodded with a smile, and praised his sons one by one, while thinking about their future education and training.Everyone next to him was watching with a smile on his face.Seeing that he has a successful career and his wife and children are full, Huang Laifu feels a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

In the afternoon, Huang Laifu rested in the mansion, talking with his wife and children, sisters, brothers-in-law, uncles and concubines, and told some interesting stories about Ningwuguan.In the evening, Huang Laifu attended the banquet hosted by the elders of Zizhai, Wuzhaibao.After returning from the banquet, Huang Laifu suddenly had a whim, and called the five girls Gu Yunniang, Liu Yumei, Liu Huan, Meiyue, and Qu Xiuhe to the same bed, and had fun together...
