Chapter 54 Hongshan Company (Seeking follow-up reading)

At the moment of deciding to break through, Shen Qing seemed to be in the torrent of time, and countless fragments of driving memories flooded into his mind like a tide.

These memories cover many driving skills from ancient times to the present, ranging from the driving of ordinary horse-drawn carriages to the fierce racing of ancient chariots.

Every picture is so vivid and clear, as if he experienced it personally.

As these memories gradually merged and converged into a powerful torrent of knowledge that was digested by Shen Qing, Shen Qing's understanding of cars and horses became more and more profound, and he had a sense of confidence that he knew it all.

[Skills: Driving Skills (Proficient)]

[Progress: 1/200 points]

[Status: cannot be upgraded]

[Note: Driving is not a one-day job. The essence lies in repeated practice. Practice makes perfect. After continuous breakthroughs, you will be able to drive more easily, control it freely, and become one with the car. ]

Shen Qing sat on the cart calmly, the reins seemed to come alive in his hands, and every slight pull contained precise intention.

As we gradually approached Hongshan Village, we left the official road and the terrain became complex and changeable.

But no matter whether it is a steep hillside or a narrow bridge, Shen Qing, who has already made a breakthrough, can handle it with ease.

Every turn and acceleration is just right.

Such performance made Shen Xiaohu and Tian Xiaohu, who were sitting on the cart, notice something different.

But in the blink of an eye, the car seemed to be more stable.

Shen Qing looked at the ink-and-wash text in his sight, and remembered something. He asked Tian Xiaohu and Shen Xiaohu, "Can you two drive?"

Tian Xiaohu and Shen Xiaohu looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "Not yet."

"When we have time later, I will teach you how to drive." Shen Qing looked ahead and said thoughtfully.

At present, he has made two trips to Hongshanzhai to sell mountain products and worked as a merchant twice.

Shen Qing calculated the profit carefully, and if there were no theft by the boss or outsiders, it would still be quite considerable.

In Hongshan Village, hunting in winter, selling medicinal herbs and precious plants in the mountains in spring, picking fruits and chopping wood in autumn and summer...all of these can be considered income.

It may not be much for each household, but if you add them all together it's still a lot.

Once things have stabilized and the opportunity is right, we can try to build a stable trade route from Hongshanzhai to the county seat.

As long as the business path is established, this business can continue for a long time.

“It’s true that I have dozens of taels of silver in my hand now, but practicing martial arts, eating and drinking, and making friends will all be quite an expense.

This money may seem like a lot, but it won't last long. You can't just sit there and do nothing.

The business in Hongshanzhai is a good start.

It may seem small at the beginning, but if you look around, the business of the four major bosses in the county all started from a little bit and lasted for several generations.

I may be able to achieve the same scale as them in the future and establish a reputation as a Hongshan business."

Shen Qing is full of confidence.

In order to make this business work, in addition to establishing a stable trade route, he must also have sufficiently strong military force.

He had seen the chaotic and chaotic Taiping County.

There are many hilltops in the city and the relationships are complicated. It is difficult to gain a foothold without strength.

Shen Qing knew that he had the foundation he had now purely through his own hard work, with punches and arrows.

If you don't advance, you will retreat.

If you don't make progress proactively, it will be difficult to make progress in the future. At best, you will be a local hope in Hongshan Village, and it will be difficult to get out of that mountain of honesty.

"Brother Qingzi, why do you suddenly want us to learn how to drive?" Shen Xiaohu sat up and asked Shen Qing curiously, "I see you drive pretty well, more steadily than Shuchi." "I promised my uncle and aunt before that I would take you and Shanwa in the business of selling mountain products. Now that I have made two trips, I am more familiar with it and thought I could teach you a little."

Shen Qing turned his head and glanced at Shen Xiaohu and Tian Xiaohu, and said seriously: "In the future, I will spend more time and energy on Linfengtang, and may not be able to take care of this side. When the time is right, I plan to let you help take care of this mountain goods business. I don't trust anyone else."

Shen Qing pondered for a while and said, "When the time comes, I can give you 20% of the profit for each trip."

"Ah, 20%? You want to entrust such an important business to us?"

Shen Xiaohu found it a little bit unbelievable. After following him for a few trips, he knew a thing or two about the profits.

In his eyes, it was a considerable sum of money, at least four or five hundred coins.

Even if it's 20%, each person will have 40 or 50 cents, which is equivalent to an adult laborer in the village. A single person can double the money in one trip.

If we hurry, it will take less than a day.

"Why not? It's too little."

"No, no, no, this business was created by you, Brother Qingzi. I'm just getting a piece of the pie. How can I be so ungrateful? I even feel like I'm taking advantage of you." Shen Xiaohu said quickly.

Shen Qing looked at Tian Xiaohu and said, "What about you?"

"I don't have much to do in the village. Qingzi, if you are willing to take me with you, I would be more than happy to do so." As he spoke, Tian Xiaohu's face was filled with joy.

There are not many opportunities to work outside in their village.

If he had this income in his spare time, his life would undoubtedly be much better.

Shen Qing looked at Shen Xiaohu and said, "Huzi, you watch this matter first. Now that you have entered Linfeng Hall, you should focus on practicing martial arts."

"Well, I understand."

"Then let's do this for now. Go back and explain it to your uncle and aunt and Shanwa." Shen Qing instructed: "Xiaohu, you follow up and prepare. I will take you with me every time I deliver mountain products from now on."

"Ah."

Hongshanzhai is about fifty or sixty miles away from the county town, and a single trip takes more than an hour, which is really a waste of time.

In addition, before the beginning of spring, the purchase and sale of mountain products only takes about ten days.

If he went less often, he would definitely practice less.

If you just practice blindly at home, no one will correct you if you make mistakes.

Still have to practice in the city.

After all, Shen Qing has limited energy and cannot take care of everything.

Shen Xiaohu and Tian Xiaohu have followed him twice, so they should be familiar with him.

With their assistance, on the one hand I can increase their income, and on the other hand I can release my energy, which is the best of both worlds.

Shen Qing remembered that Ouyang Tiezhu had said that it would be best for him to stretch his muscles and bones before the age of sixteen, otherwise it would be difficult to train after his muscles and bones were closed.

Although this time is still ample considering the progress of the ink panel.

But he didn't dare to let himself slack off.

Shen Qing planned to ride a horse to Linfeng Hall in the county to practice martial arts whenever he had time in the future, at least to practice all the body movements first.

After walking for another half an hour, the shadow of Hongshan Village gradually appeared in the sight of Shen Qing and the others.

Shen Qing raised his whip but the whip had not yet hit the slow horse.

The slow horse seemed to have known this in advance and started running faster.
