Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Huangshang is not just a nice name, perhaps in many hearts, Huangshang means more benefits, but in Wang Xiujin's eyes, it means a greater responsibility.Before he was promoted to be an imperial merchant, Wang Xiujin was still able to demarcate his own property, but now that he has been given a big hat, he can't count all his property as his own. Whether it is a grain store or a garment store, he must be demarcated. Give [-]% of the profit to the royal family.If it were placed on some people, they might transfer such private property to trusted people, but Wang Xiujin didn't do that.Just like what he thought when he donated his family's wealth before, when the money became a number, he didn't care.Compared with the result of making money, he prefers the process of making money.

After sorting out the property of the name, under the witness of several accounts cleared, Wang Xiujin made a clear division of the property. Except for small restaurants, all properties are divided into three shares, [-]% of the profit goes to the royal family, and [-]% of the profit is kept for himself , [-]% profit is distributed as a reward to workers in various industries.Wang Xiujin's behavior once caused the several people who had settled accounts to worry about whether they would not be able to keep people with such a generous reward. After all, the guys in the industry didn't sign the contract of sale.Wang Xiujin was not worried at all, if he wanted to leave, he would jump on his feet and want to come to work.If those who left the Wang's shop were able to open their own shop, not only would he not be angry, but he would also give great support. If he needed financial help, he would also extend his hand.

Outsiders may take Wang Xiujin's words as a joke, but those who have been with Wang Xiujin for a long time know that these words are not jokes, and he will do what he can say.The account clearers are very envious of the free guys. They just want to make a living by themselves. Even if Wang Xiujin agrees, the government may not allow it. However, their life is not bad now. It is much better than the relatives who were distributed. They will bring part of the money to relatives, but not too much.Just like what the boss said, they were asked by the emperor to come, and they didn't owe those relatives. They took money to support their parents from a long distance, and they could do one or two things, but there was no need to bear more burdens, which would affect the immediate wife and children.

Sometimes, Wang Xiujin doesn't remember too deeply what he said to others, like words of persuasion, he just forgets after saying it.Others kept it in their hearts, and even repeated what he had said when they were grateful. Wang Xiujin shook his hand, denying that he had said it, but his behavior made the other party feel that Wang Xiujin was very kind.

After sorting out his personal property and dividing up future benefits, Wang Xiujin put on the agenda the business of branching out that he had to do before.The first branch of the garment store opened in Wu County. Wang Xiujin originally planned to go back, but because of the weaving technology, he asked the shopkeeper of the garment store in the capital to go there on his behalf.

It took more than a month for the shopkeeper to go back and forth. When he came back, he brought good news to the Wang family, and the Wang family's daughter-in-law was pregnant again.Mrs. Wang was very happy, and she was busy asking her youngest son to write a letter to her eldest son. After a long word of instructions, Mrs. Wang said that there is no need for the eldest son and daughter-in-law to go to the capital during the Chinese New Year.Wang Xiujin thinks that the eldest brother is very brave. With this speed of childbearing, when the eldest brother grows old, he will not be able to form a football team.

After the letter was delivered, Wang Xiujin saw Li Sushan coming to the door. Li Sushan ran home diligently in the past two days, but he was not looking for him, but his father.Looking at Li Sushan's expressionless face, Wang Xiujin wondered, isn't he afraid of his father?Every time before Li Sushan left, the two would talk in the yard, most of which were Wang Xiujin talking and Li Sushan listening, which was different from the previous pattern of the two getting along when Li Sushan chatted.Wang Xiujin didn't think there was anything wrong, the two were already engaged, and they were destined to live together in the future, so no one took the initiative and the other was passive.Although Li Sushan spoke less, he could feel the other party's emotion from his eyes.When the two of them were not talking, they would hook their fingers together, which was no different from an innocent boy who secretly fell in love early.

The free days are always pitiful. After the implementation of the weaving technology, Wang Xiujin began to be busy again. He didn't understand the principle of weaving, but he would give some advice to the weavers from time to time. Add some dark lines in the process.Now the weaving technique of Daliang is to weave the whole piece of cloth in the color of the back beam, not to mention adding dark lines, even interspersed with other colors, it is impossible to do it, but Wang Xiujin doesn't have many other things, but he has a lot of money, and he can afford it , Try to weave cloth that cannot be made, starting from dark patterns, he believes that more cloth with patterns will be woven.

In addition to the textile workshop, Wang Xiujin is still busy buying a farm. He wants to hire people to breed and raise sheep in large quantities.The farms at the border gates were in short supply for a textile workshop in the capital, and now the ones in Wuxian County were out of stock. Wang Xiujin had to put the matter of raising sheep on the agenda.With the name of an imperial merchant, there is less resistance, but every time he does something, he will always attract some businessmen who want to intervene. After Wang Xiujin bought Zhuangzi, a few pieces of land near his Zhuangzi were surrounded by people. After listening to Wang Xiujin When the people around came to report, the corners of their mouths twitched, and they secretly rolled their eyes.

On the way back to the city, I met Second Master Chun, who joked with Wang Xiujin why he thought of buying Zhuangzi, did he want to move crab rice to the capital to plant?Wang Xiujin was quite speechless, "I bought Zhuangzi to herd sheep, but I can grow some grain, but it's not crab rice, and I can also grow some grass for sheep to eat."

Second Master Chun didn't expect Wang Xiujin to answer. He asked for fun. After listening to Wang Xiujin's words, he was taken aback for a moment, and then thought of Wang Xiujin's textile workshop, so he understood. "It's Zhuangzi who should buy a place."

"Actually, I don't want to buy it. The main reason is that no one raises sheep in large numbers except at the border." Wang Xiujin also doesn't want to have everything run by him. Although he earns a lot of money, it also brings a lot of pressure. "Raising sheep has many benefits. In addition to the wool that can be sheared twice a year, goat milk can feed people, and the edibility of mutton is also very high..." Wang Xiujin talked about the benefits of raising sheep endlessly.

The more Master Chun heard it, the more weird he felt, why did he feel that Wang Xiujin was fooling him into raising sheep.

Wang Xiujin didn't want Second Master Chun to raise sheep. The Chun family had a big business and was very busy every day, so he couldn't care less about raising sheep.The same is true for Wang Xiujin, as I said before, he doesn't want to raise sheep either, as if he is competing with the people for profit, but he has been looking for a large family that raises sheep, but unfortunately he has never found one, and now he is collecting wool scatteredly, but he cannot guarantee the quantity.After buying Zhuangzi, the professional sheep breeder who came from the border had to be handed over to raise sheep when he turned back. He needed to recruit some people to take care of Zhuangzi, and he also had to allocate some energy.

After entering the city, he separated from Second Master Chun, and Wang Xiujin was going to send someone to the border, not only to ask for people, but also to buy some sheep back.Before the sheep arrived in the capital, the sheep shed had to be built to prevent the sheep from freezing to death after winter, and the ground dragon seeds had to be laid down, and more grass had to be dried.Wang Xiujin felt that these sheep were treated better than humans.

Wang Xiujin was busy, but Li Sushan was free. The work of training people had been completed, and all the people were sent to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, while he began to prepare for the border.

The fourth prince has been very busy recently. While developing his real estate business, he is also busy listening to his father, taking care of his son, and looking at his future daughter-in-law from time to time.When Wang Xiujin was conferred the title of Imperial Merchant, the fourth prince was out of town. When he found out after returning to Beijing, he immediately asked Wang Xiujin to treat him. Wang Xiujin was not a stingy master, so he was generous enough to book a restaurant, and specially invited the fourth prince to have a hot pot meal. But the weather was very hot that day, and the fourth prince was sweating profusely after eating, but he was very fascinated by the shabu-shabu, and then moved the shabu-shabu into the palace in a daze.

The soup base was brought into the palace from the restaurant, one side is red spicy soup, the other side is milky white nourishing soup, sitting in the side hall of the imperial study, surrounded by ice basins, copper pots on the table, placed around Plates of evenly cut mutton slices, juicy green vegetables, as well as the restaurant's homemade shrimp slips, fish tofu, etc., filled the entire table.The emperor looked interesting, but frowned slightly at the mutton.The fourth prince immediately said that the mutton tasted so delicious that there was no smell at all, and it was very delicious.The emperor tried it suspiciously, and then became as obsessed with shabu-shabu as his son.Unlike his son who likes spicy food, Tianzi thinks the nourishing soup pot is more delicious.

The shabu-shabu was loved by the emperor, and the consumption of some small ingredients in Wang Xiujin's restaurant also accelerated, which made Wang Xiujin helpless, so he could only give the method of how to make the base and seasoning to the fourth prince. How could the fourth prince ask for Wang Xiujin's prescription for nothing? , Paying with a big wave of his hand, the emperor also rewarded some things after hearing about it, but he didn't reward the silver.

After the fourth prince settled down at the border gate, he kept thinking about whether he could bring some of the bottom material of the shabu-shabu, so that the uncle at the border gate could have a taste.So the cooks in the imperial dining room got busy again.The fourth prince went to the border for the sake of salt. Now that the salt market has stabilized, he needs to discuss with the fourth uncle the amount of salt to be dried in the future, and also bring a letter from his father to his uncle.Ever since another uncle concocted a rebellion, the fourth prince was very cautious towards each uncle, but he trusted the uncle who took care of the salt for his father. The reason was quite simple. Temperament is too straightforward.

Wang Xiujin heard Li Sushan say that he wanted to protect the fourth prince to go to the border. He frowned so much that he could kill a fly. Last time Li Sushan came back but was injured by an arrow. There is no guarantee that there will be no mistakes this time, but he can't say that he won't let him go. I can only repeatedly emphasize that we must pay attention to safety.

Li Sushan took Wang Xiujin's hand, changed the topic from going to the border to the fourth prince, and by the way mentioned that the fourth prince wanted to bring soup to the border.

Wang Xiujin raised his eyebrows, he was really surprised, "The fourth prince has never eaten anything good in the palace, but he likes to cook hot pot. I thought he was just trying to catch something new."

"The taste of shabu-shabu is really good. I heard that the nourishing soup base is also affirmed by the imperial doctor." Li Sushan also likes shabu-shabu, but he is not as obsessed with it as the fourth prince.

What Wang Xiujin thinks is not how delicious shabu-shabu is, but whether someone will open a shabu-shabu shop, and whether the sheep he raises in the future can digest mutton without opening another shop.
