Li Xun had nothing to do these days. He went back to the state and ran back after not staying for two days. He felt that Zhuangzi's side was more comfortable, mainly because he didn't have to worry about being watched when he was doing things.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan sent someone to look for them. Li Xun ran over without saying a word, with only four guards, and stayed at the door of Zhang Mansion.
"Prince Li, I came to you this time to ask if you are willing to make more money? If you are willing, let's discuss it. If you don't, then you will be fine with a meal."
Zhang Xiaobao said straightforwardly.
Li Xun didn't know why Zhang Xiaobao spoke so happily. It usually took a few turns to tell what he was going to say. Naturally, these things Li Xun said as the expert teacher Zhang Xiaobao said.
Now when I heard that there are other ways to make money, I immediately agreed: "Okay, what kind of business? I am the one, I like to do business, do business safely, I have no ambitions."
Li Xun is also telling the truth this time. Regardless of his dignity, there are many things that have to be guarded against. His father is not always doing things in the state. It is good to be here for half of the year.
"Okay, come and see this." Zhang Xiaobao knew that Li Xun would agree, took him to the table, spread out the drawings he and Wang Juan had just drawn on the table, and talked to Li Xun about how to open a supermarket. How to open a good supermarket, how much money will it make, what are the benefits, etc.
Li Xun listened and thought. He felt that what Zhang Xiaobao said was better than the grocery store, and the place there was big, so it should not be wrong. The most important thing is that he thinks this is the guidance of the expert, and the expert never makes mistakes. , It's amazing, it's easy to make a little money.
Without waiting for Zhang Xiaobao to continue to tell him about the risks, he directly agreed, "Okay, this is a good place called a supermarket. I will vote for how much it is."
"Fifty thousand taels, do you have it? You have to invest your money here in Shuiyunjian, and you will be counted if you sell box lunches, plus the surrounding river bank, if you get some billboards, you will be counted as well. One, this is all for money."
Zhang Xiaobao didn't plan to let Li Xun take all the money, in case it didn't work, so he had two benefits for Li Xun. Even if the supermarket didn't make as much as he imagined, Li Xun wouldn't say anything.
Li Xun was really embarrassed when he heard that he had to spend so much money. "No, I only have more than 10,000 taels on hand. What should I do? Others from your family?"
"I don't have that much money in my family. It's used by my father. You can find someone else. You know a lot of people. Find the rich and count them together." Zhang Xiaobao pointed to Li Xun.
"Still looking for someone else? It's better to get a small one first, and then my money will be recovered, and then a little bit bigger." Li Xun wanted to eat alone.
Zhang Xiaobaoxin said, if I can wait, I still have to look for you? Can’t I do it by myself, so I had to persuade me: “Spread it out once and make the scene bigger, so that you can do things. You can find a few people and invest the money first, and I will start to do this in detail. I guess it’s not necessary. It can be covered in the last month."
Li Xun was fooled this time, and he didn't know that Zhang Xiaobao was eager to spend money and wanted to buy the two pieces of land.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Alright, wait, I'll send someone to find other people who are willing to join. Then we will open this supermarket to various places in Datang. No, we will open it outside. Wait, first. If you find it, I'll write to you tomorrow, and I'll go back and make arrangements first."
Li Xun was in Qian’s eyes now. Hearing this idea, he ignored the rest. He stopped eating. He turned around and left. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan kept sending him out of the gate before they looked at each other. At the same time laughed.
Li Xun’s work efficiency is really fast, and I don’t know where he is looking for people. They didn’t even come, so they wrote a letter and sent the money to the next night. Li Xun added My own, a total of more than 41,000 taels, have silver, copper, and cloth.
Zhang Xiaobao took part of Xiuhe's money, made up to fifty thousand taels, and brought them to his mother together.
Zhang Wang was responsible for signing the last deed, knowing that this is another transaction. I don’t know whether it is good or bad. The money is obtained first, and she is not worried that it will not be possible in the end. The pier on Xiao Luoshui only needs to slow down. After the last delay, that's all right, but it's okay to pay someone else. The land will be obtained first.
He kissed Zhang Xiaobao vigorously on the cheek, and Zhang Wang said happily: "Okay, our family will have more land in the future, and these will be kept for you. If you have a younger brother in the future, you can score him more. You can't give him nothing, you have to give a dowry if you have a sister.
When a woman gets married, if she doesn’t have a dowry, she will not be able to raise her head in her husband’s family. Don’t look at me, I am different. My sons are better than others, a hundred times stronger. Whose child can get so much money? Scared them to death. "
Zhang Wang's family was still happy the next day. She didn't need her to find people from those two houses. On the third day, Madam Han and Madam Yuan came over with the title deeds, and there were some other cultural deeds, the pillars of the two families. Don't close it, this land deed or something can only be delivered with their identities.
Nearly fifty thousand taels of silver, pulled a dozen carts, when Han and Yuan returned with the money, there were expressions on their faces that they didn’t know whether they were happy or sad. Once they returned to Zhuangzi, they immediately packed them up with willingness. Follow the people in their inner courtyard to the capital. Those who are unwilling to follow, just give some money and send them away. They are not going to return to this place in the future.
Wang Zhang was touching the land deeds and other documents in his hands, and laughed twice there from time to time.
…
The river is still expanding, clearing the silt inside, and the bank was not repaired right away. It took up some other people’s land, and some old men came forward to help solve it, or compensate money, or change a place. , Zhang Xiaobao naturally came out the money, and the yamen had no money, so they consumed it in advance.
At that time, the money yamen that Zhang Xiaobao took out will be paid back from the tax collected.
The people who work have enough food, save food for the family, and can cover the 20 days of work a year. When they work too much, they can get paid, or they can change to rent-free. They all work hard, no one Dare to be lazy, if you get caught, there will be nothing.
After Li Xun bought the land of the two Zhuangzi in Zhangjiazhuang, he found it the next day and said to Zhang Xiaobao: "Just tell that person, it's amazing, no wonder it's so anxious. I originally wanted to buy land. If you don’t tell me, I will buy one too. Don’t worry, I’m not going to tell those. Anyway, there must be a supermarket at that time. It’s almost the time to make money at your Xiaoluoshui dock, right?"
"Okay, let me tell you. Actually, we really need to plan for some time, especially when the river connects, we need to find a location. The same is true for other places. My house is a waste of work, and I didn't count these preparations as separate things and delays. What's the time
If you want a Zhuangzi, you can sell you a land for six taels of silver per mu, which is cheap, but it will become more valuable in the future, or you can owe it first, and then give it to you when you have the money. "
Zhang Xiaobao didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Li Xun quickly refused, "No, I just have a Zhuangzi next to your house. I can't use the others, and I can't manage it. When I get older and have a fief, I may not have so much time. Come here, then you and the cuckoo are going to find me."
Li Xun's purpose Zhang Xiaobao knew that it was not because of the "superior" that he wanted to meet the superior and learn something, but he never saw it.
Zhang Xiaobao felt that Li Xun was also very pitiful. After thinking about it, he said, I have something here. You can take a look at it. It’s about some things in this world. It’s called nature. If you don’t understand it, just keep it in your heart and wait until I understand it. I told you.
Zhang Xiaobao took out a book about nature that does not challenge the emperor's power. Wang Juan wrote a copy of it just now. He was going to learn it from the little children of Zhuangzi. Now he had to show it to Li Xun, so he couldn't let him down all the time.
When Li Xun saw a book sent by Zhang Xiaobao, his eyes widened and his face was excited. He thought it was written by the expert to Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao. Although he did not see the expert, he could It's worth seeing the same thing.
He took it quickly, and gently stroked the book with his hand, and said to Zhang Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, you are such a good person. If you have any trouble, you will find me. As long as you are not rebellious, other things are easy to talk about. Let me first When you go back, you slowly ponder the supermarket, not in a hurry, no one is in a hurry."
Li Xun wanted to go back and take a quick look. He took the book and threw down the sentence and left. Zhang Xiaobao stood at the door, watching Li Xun being protected by four guards to leave, and muttered: "I don't think I have a chance to board that position. Living easily is actually happy. Well, if I don't go to that position, then I am also happy."
…
Early the next morning, Zhang Wang's family led the housekeeper to find Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
"Xiaobao, let's go, go to see the new village with my mother. I don’t know how they are doing. I think it’s not as good as our villagers. There are more people and more land, and you have to pay rent again. Wait. Your dad has finished the exam. Be an official, and see if he can get some food."
Zhang Wangshi said to Zhang Xiaobao, she has a bottom in her heart. It’s not easy to take an imperial examination. She still has the talents of her husband, not to mention that she also sent so much money out, there is a Shangshu to guarantee, and the master waiting for help. , Coupled with the management of the county magistrate Cheng, who would dare to let his husband fail the test.
Zhang Xiaobao also wanted to go over and take a look. After all, he will be a family in the future. There are still many dealers there waiting for the new owner to pass by. It will not be good for the two days to come, and he is afraid.
Pulling Wang Juan, following his mother and the housekeeper, there are a group of protectors. First, they walked towards the place of Han's Zhuangzi, instead of taking a car, just strolled slowly.
After half an hour, I can see people in front of me. The people in the fields should be farmers who feces on the ground. From a distance, the work seems to be slow.
