Blood from Daming

Chapter 279 Branches
When Yan Sanniang returned to the living room in the backyard, Wang Defa was still waiting there, Yan Sanniang said: "Defa, what else is there?"

Wang Defa: "Master, shopkeeper Xiao Du of "Sanjiang Huitong" wants to see you. "

Yan Sanniang nodded, and Wang Defa turned around and went out. After a while, Xiao Du, the shopkeeper of "Sanjiang Huitong", entered the living room, saluted Yan Sanniang and said, "Young Madam, the preparations for the opening of "Sanjiang Huitong" have been completed." Yes, young lady please choose a good day and auspicious day for opening. "

Yan Sanniang asked, "Is shopkeeper Du having a good day?"

Shopkeeper Xiao Du already had everything ready. The purpose of coming to Yan's mansion was to let Yan Sanniang take people to set up a place for the opening of "Sanjiang Huitong", so he replied to Yan Sanniang and said: "The day after tomorrow is the auspicious day for the opening. I don't know, young lady Fang is inconvenient."

Yan Sanniang: "If you are free in the day after tomorrow, shopkeeper Du will leave the invitation if you need to invite distinguished guests."

Shopkeeper Xiao Du was very pleasantly surprised: "Young Madam, please bring the important guest post."

Yan Sanniang: "What is the business coverage of "Sanjiang Huitong". "

Shopkeeper Xiao Du replied: "Young Madam, the business of "Sanjiang Huitong" is based on the mortgage and bank model. The business of "Sanjiang Huitong" in Hangzhou conducts draft transactions with Beijing and Datong. The first branch of "Sanjiang Huitong". "

What Yan Sanniang told Shopkeeper Xiao Du had heard from Xue Yun, and she understood that the current "Sanjiang Huitong" is no longer a traditional pawn shop, but a new type of long-distance exchange of gold and silver mainly based on money houses, and the exchange of goods from the north to the south. Big trading house.

Yan Sanniang asked: "How about the funds of Sanjiang Huitong in Hangzhou. "

Shopkeeper Xiao Du said: "Young Madam, the student brought 3000 taels of gold this time, a batch of rare jewels, and a sum of money from the Xue family in Hangzhou, and Mrs. Chen has already written a note for the Chen family to pay us. However, shopkeeper Chen has not yet received the money from Cangzhou.”

Yan Sanniang was amused to hear that, no wonder the world said that girls are extroverted. This year, the shopkeeper Chen owed the debt for only three months, and his niece came to collect the debt. Among the merchants, he should have made some money, not to mention that he also sent two cheap properties of the Wu family and a batch of goods. I think there is no big problem in repaying the money, but now that shopkeeper Chen is not here, the days of shopkeeper Xiaodu I'm afraid it's a little sad.

Yan Sanniang said: "Treasurer Du, Hangzhou Mansion is a wealthy mansion in the south of the Ming Dynasty. The entire Hangzhou Mansion has a population of over one million, and there are as many rich people as a cow's hair. I'm afraid it won't be able to support the scene without some real money."

Shopkeeper Xiao Du talked about Yan Sanniang's sore spots, and he immediately turned bitter. Yan Sanniang was secretly amused. Shopkeeper Du's face is still a little tender, and being a shopkeeper still needs a lot of training.

Yan Sanniang said: "There is a batch of gold and silver shopkeeper Du in the house that can be used as a prestige, but most of the batch of gold and silver has gone somewhere recently. The business shopkeeper Du of the "Sanjiang Huitong" in Hangzhou needs to pay more attention. "

Shopkeeper Xiao Du was overjoyed when he heard Yan Sanniang's words: "With the support of the young lady, we will overcome the difficulties. From now on, we will guide Hangzhou merchants to deposit money at "Sanjiang Huitong". business. "

Yan Sanniang looked at Xiao Du's complacent look, and thought that the old shopkeeper Du was still suspected of engaging in malpractice. This young shopkeeper Du was still too young to speak and act prudently. Ma Ju was put on the bridle, and the Yan family had to send a competent person to monitor it, otherwise there would be mistakes sooner or later according to the smug business of shopkeeper Xiao Du.

Yan Sanniang then said slowly: "Master Du, the business world in Hangzhou is very complicated, how can I send you a financial director and consultant to help you?"

Shopkeeper Xiao Du felt a little sad after hearing Yan Sanniang's words, but shopkeeper Xiao Du knew that Mrs. Chen Shao in the capital was the second in command of Xiao Xue's house, and this Yan Sanniang was the real first sister. Unconditionally obey Yan Sanniang's command, not to mention that Mrs. Yan Shao will invest a large amount of gold and silver in the "Sanjiang Huitong" in Hangzhou. It would be strange if Mrs. Yan Shao did not send someone to monitor.

Shopkeeper Xiao Du nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice. Yan Sanniang said: "Shopkeeper Du, don't worry, you are still in charge of Hangzhou "Sanjiang Huitong". The person who is also a consultant has the task of advising you and contacting the business community in Hangzhou, as well as running some business for the Hangzhou branch of Shuntianfu. "

Shopkeeper Xiao Du quickly expressed his support for the work of the chief financial officer and consultant. Yan Sanniang thought for a while that there was no one in his hands, so she had to order the female soldiers to send Mr. Zheng to see her. The wealthy businessman from the Hangzhou family contributed 40 taels of silver, and another 20 taels of silver as a contribution, which was the 1000 taels of gold and a batch of gold and silver jewelry from the Wu family, and the 8 gold ingots and gold ingots brought from the capital to open up Hangzhou. Gold wares, as well as 10 gold and silver treasures confiscated from Zhou Laohu’s family in Fengqiu County, Henan Province, recently spent 5 taels of silver on the property of the Wu family’s reverse production, and brought [-] taels of silver to Changtu Island Two taels of gold and silver. Unfortunately, gold and silver are not very useful there. What is needed most is all kinds of materials, so they brought back [-] taels of gold and silver.

Yan Sanniang now has more than 60 taels of gold and silver and a batch of gold, silver and jewelry in her hands, but the supplies in her hands are consumed very quickly. Her husband, Qi Bo, took supplies worth 10 taels of silver and sent them to Changtu Island. Most of the materials are used to extract oil from the Wu family's belongings. What is left in the warehouse is either goods that can be shipped to the north to sell at a high price, or some unsuitable dead cat goods that may need to be discounted. Island shipping basically has to be bought with money.

Just when Yan Sanniang was thinking about something, Master Zheng had already arrived for a while. The female soldier coughed and Yan Sanniang woke up. Yan Sanniang said apologetically, "Mr. gentlemen."

Master Zheng hurriedly said humbly: "My lord has worked hard to manage all kinds of affairs every day, so you don't have to take these little details to heart."

Yan Sanniang heard from Wang Defa that Mr. Zheng had been diligent and conscientious during this period of time, and he was very decent in handling the general affairs of the Yan Mansion. Yan Sanniang had no one in his hands and had to ask Mr. Zheng to do this very important job, not Hangzhou City. There are no talents who are willing to serve the Yan family, but Yan Sanniang's eyes are darkened and she doesn't know who can be reused. Using Master Zheng can be regarded as driving ducks to the shelves.

Yan Sanniang said: "Mr. Zheng, the "Sanjiang Huitong" branch in Hangzhou under the Xue family needs a financial director and consultant. I want the husband to work hard for a while. I don't know what he wants. "

Master Zheng's face became a little stiff when he heard this, and within less than a month of following Yan Sanniang, relying on the signboards of Yan Mansion and Shuntian Mansion to get along well in Hangzhou City, the aristocratic families in Yan Mansion, Shuntian Mansion and Hangzhou Mansion Among the businessmen, they made use of Wu's anti-crime palm to accept bribes, and made a full six-figure money. Now Master Zheng is willing to leave this precious land of Yan Mansion because of his reckless mouth.

Mr. Zheng said aiaiaiqiqi: "Proprietor, is there anything wrong with the students?"

Yan Sanniang knew that Master Zheng had misunderstood what he said, so she explained to Master Zheng: "Mr. Zheng, you have misunderstood. The Xue family's business in Hangzhou is in its infancy. There are too few talents like Mr. Zheng." , I just hope that Mr. Zheng can work harder to assist the shopkeeper Du in managing the Hangzhou "Sanjiang Huitong" branch. "

Master Zheng heard that Yan Sanniang said that he was only helping. This is clearly a way of thinking highly of himself and putting a burden on his work. Why didn’t he understand and pushed the good things to the outside? Master Zheng immediately patted Yan Sanniang’s chest to reassure Yan There will be no delay in the affairs of both the government and "Sanjiang Huitong". Master Zheng is actually not brave enough to shoulder the heavy burden.He was reluctant to part with the gold-lettered signboard of the Yan Mansion, without his status as the steward of the Yan Mansion, Mr. Zheng was nothing in the Hangzhou Mansion.

Yan Sanniang said: "Mr. Zheng is the owner of Shopkeeper Du's "Sanjiang Huitong" in Hangzhou. From now on, Mr. Zheng will only control the flow of funds, give advice to Shopkeeper Du, and contact colleagues in the Hangzhou business community. Do some business. "After Yan Sanniang's introduction, Mr. Zheng and Shopkeeper Du officially met.

Yan Sanniang: "The opening of "Sanjiang Huitong" in Hangzhou brought 40 taels of gold and silver from the mansion to the store. The Hangzhou branch is used for business, and there is also a large amount of copper coins secretly collected by exchanging gold and silver. You should try to keep a secret as much as possible for a task, understand. "

Master Zheng didn’t talk too much, but Shopkeeper Xiao Du was a little confused but didn’t dare to ask. Yan Sanniang asked Master Zheng to send invitations to the wealthy businessmen of Hangzhou Mansion on behalf of Yan Mansion. Master Zheng got the task and pulled Shopkeeper Xiao Du to leave After going out, Yan Sanniang ordered her female soldiers to bring some food to satisfy their hunger.

These days, Yan Sanniang is not very used to living on Changtu Island. Yesterday she came back and sat on a boat for a day and a night. She was not groggy. She has not fully recovered yet. Looking at the plate full of pastries brought by the female soldiers , ginseng soup, etc. Suddenly I lost my appetite, but I felt very hungry. I insisted on eating a piece of mung bean cake and half a bowl of ginseng soup. The female soldier took the rest of the food, and then sat there to rest for a while. out of the living room.

When Yan Sanniang came out and saw Wang Defa, she asked, "Have you prepared the gift for Chief Minister Pan's congratulations?"

Wang Defa asked: "Mistress, you are ready."
