Chapter 68: Being Played Together(1/2)

Sitong Trading Company is mainly engaged in business operations, and the size of the storefront is not very important. What is important is that the backyard is large.

This shop in front of the carriage shop is very suitable for his requirements, and the price is not expensive. It is 220 taels per room, which is a bit of a small matter for Fang Jingnan, who holds tens of thousands of silver.

If you think about it carefully, the cost of raising soldiers is really not good, and the monthly expenses of Mangzi Camp and the Security Group are five such big shops.

There are fifty rooms a year, and there are only a few hundred people. The imperial court has raised so many soldiers, so the cost is indeed very large.

Alas, I really don’t do anything to be a leader, I don’t know how hard it is to make money!

Fang Jingnan was eager to make money, so she paid a deposit of ten taels to the yaman on the spot, asking him to contact the owner and the government office officials and handle the relevant procedures as soon as possible.

Few encounters such a happy buyer. A chrysanthemum-like smile appeared on her face, and a silver-inlaid front teeth appeared in her yellow teeth. A small eyes that looked up at Fang Jingnan were flashing with stars like substance.

"Go quickly, don't delay!" Fang Jingnan's heart couldn't help but tremble.

Mrs. Yan raised her mouth and a hint of charm appeared in her eyebrows. "The shopkeeper, please keep your heart in your stomach. There is a dead ghost in the house that the old woman knows. The procedures must be done before the evening and the signature will be completed tomorrow."

Fang Jingnan took out a ingot of silver and gave it to him, "Thank you so much for Aunt Yan!"

"Oh, it's so polite. If the deal is successful, the old woman will have a commission to get, which makes me feel embarrassed." As she spoke, Mrs. Yan reached out to take the silver and put it in her arms. Then she walked quickly, without any embarrassment.

Fang Jingnan smiled and didn't care. Who would have done it for the sake of profit?

The Zhang family has enough people to find good shops and the font size is started. The next step is to find commercial goods. After so much trouble, the Sitong Trading Company finally got on track step by step.

The streets are bustling with pedestrians. Taiyuan City is the center of a province. Taiyuan Prefecture, Jin Wangfu, Censorate, household department, county seat, Shanxi Prefecture, garrison office and other offices are all located in the city.

It can be said that it is a mixture of fish and dragons!

After wandering for a while, Fang Jingnan and others returned to the inn where they were staying. At this time, many children of the Zhang family came back. At the entrance of a not-so-large inn, there were carriages carrying various supplies. At a glance, there were as many as dozens.

Zhang Shouren was not there, and Zhang Zhending was commanding the carriage to park on the side of the road according to the cargo.

"Why have you bought so many?" Fang Jingnan asked curiously.

Zhang Zhending, who was busy, looked up and saw that it was Fang Jingnan. He smiled and said, "Not only in Dongxian, but also looking back at Huairen City, we also plan to find some shops and open the shops."

"Haha, what a big deal, it's really a big deal!"

Fang Jingnan smiled slightly jokingly. In these two cities, with the care of the Mang Cang, it can be foreseen that these shops in the Zhang family will not be intentionally made difficult by others.

This is what Fang Jingnan needs. As soon as the Zhang family came, things were not only smooth for Sitong Trading, but other shops were also set up one after another, just waiting for the time to be ripe, and Mangziying was responsible for drawing commercial taxes.

Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea all require merchants to communicate with each other. This city can be lubricated, suitable for living, and attract more people to enter the city.

So, Fang Jingnan looked at a group of Zhang merchants around him and said with a smile: "Everyone should do it well. If you have any trouble in the future, you can find me at any time!"

"Thank you for your care!" Everyone responded loudly with smiles on their faces.

After entering the inn, Fang Jingnan went back to his room for a rest. Not long after, Zhang Shouren also came back, and dozens of carriages were cargo.

"It's still going well?" Zhang Jingnan asked.

Zhang Shouren smiled, with expectations for the future in his eyes, "Who would think that money is too hot to make money? What about you, are you looking for the shop?"

Fang Jingnan nodded and said, "I've found it. The backyard is very large, and it's no problem to place hundreds of cars."

The two had already discussed that Taiyuan City was only used as a place to collect commercial goods. If a part of it gathered, it would be taken to part of Dong County, which was the base of the Sitong Commercial Bank.

In the evening, Xingfeng, who was so tired that his eyes were red, came back several times.

"Has it sold out?" Fang Jingnan quipped.

Xingfeng said with a sad face: "Sold more than a thousand pieces, sir, will you still sell like this tomorrow?"

Fang Jingnan smiled and said, "Do you think it's effective?"

Xingfeng thought for a while and said, "It's so cheap, everyone still likes it very much. Those who come to buy silk scarves know the name of Sitong Trading Company, and some of them are rich, and they will spend ten copper coins to exchange for our small iron pieces to play with, and they will not buy silk scarves."

"Then I have to sell it tomorrow!" Fang Jingnan felt happy and said confidently.

"Oh!" Xingfeng replied weakly.

However, things could not keep up with the change. The next day, when Xingfeng just arrived at the street stall, he was called back. Fang Jingnan's face was gloomy and everyone looked angry.

Cheng Beisheng had a clear palm print on his face, and he stood beside him with his head down, not daring to show off his breath.

His errands were broken!

But this slap was not beaten by Fang Jingnan, but by a manager Lou from Tianchengyaxing.

This morning, the agreed time came, but Mrs. Yan didn't come. Fang Jingnan asked Cheng Beisheng to go to Yaxing to urge him. However, Mrs. Yan didn't ask for advice. Cheng Beisheng took the Yaxing note, but Yaxing refused to admit it and tore it up, saying that this was not true at all.

Seeing Xingfeng and others coming back, Fang Jingnan nodded, stood up, comforted Cheng Beisheng, "Don't blame yourself, there is no need to worry. I believe there is still a reason to talk about the city of a mansion. They will talk about the right and wrong."

Outside Tiancheng's gate, when he saw Fang Jingnan and his party coming, dozens of brave and strong men immediately rushed out of the house, holding swords, guns, sticks and various weapons.

In the dentistry, private teeth are generally gangsters. In comparison, official teeth have more elements as businessmen, but they can't escape the market.

All of these people looked fierce, and Cheng Beisheng whispered: "Sir, these are all people who fight."

As the name suggests, a person who helps people fight and helps people settle trouble is also considered the predecessor of the underworld.

"Are customers just turning them out like this?" Fang Jingnan said.

A middle-aged man who looked like a manager walked out of the crowd, looked at Cheng Beisheng, and looked at Fang Jingnan several times and said, "I said that I don't have the same person as Yan Pozi, nor have I received the business of Sitong Trading. If you are in trouble, don't blame me for placing him and sending him to the official for a crime."

Cheng Beisheng was born in a private tooth and was not considered a good person. Now he is dependent on Fang Jingnan, and he has less anger on his body, but the fierceness of the character Mang is also a little bit contaminated.

Cheng Beisheng stared at the manager with a fierce look, but he didn't say anything. Fang Jingnan wasn't his turn to talk too much.

Fang Jingnan waved his hand and smiled, "I won't mention the past. Today I came to visit me, but I was in the shop. I learned that it was your Tiancheng Yashang business, so I hope that your business will get it done with one or two and complete the procedures."

The other party obviously showed a tricky attitude. Fang Jingnan did not talk to him like this, but changed his mind and said that he liked a shop and opened the door to welcome customers. He could not refuse business!

But this person was really shameless. Without asking which one it was, he said, "I'm sorry, it's such a coincidence that the shop you like has found someone with a destiny."

Fang Jingnan looked at him with a smile on his face, but he knew in his heart that this matter was not because Tian Chengxing wanted to blackmail the ten taels of silver, but that it was obviously aiming at it. But what was the reason?

"I heard that Tiancheng Yass is the first of the three major Yasses in the city. Since I am so hospitalized, I don't know if the other two will be better?" Fang Jingnan meant that if there is a business, I will look for two other companies.

But Manager Lou didn't care at all, but instead sneered: "You don't have the ability to measure it!" After that, he turned around and walked back to the shop. From beginning to end, Fang Jingnan and others couldn't even get in the shop.

Do you need to have the ability to spend money to buy a shop?

Fang Jingnan was speechless.

But I was even more helpless and there was still the back. The other two teeth shops were in the same situation. When I heard that Sitong Trading Company wanted to buy a shop, they shook their heads and said that they would not accept it.

Who is the enemy?

If you don’t know if someone is doing something bad behind the scenes, Fang Jingnan doesn’t have to mess around anymore.

"Sir, the reason in the matter is that I think I need to find that Mrs. Yan!"

The crowd returned to the inn. Cheng Beisheng, who had been involved in the tooth shop, suggested that Mrs. Yan be invited, and she must have known the reason.

Fang Jingnan said: "We don't know where she lives, and the people who travel in Tiancheng will not tell us how to find it for a while?"

Cheng Beisheng thought for a while and said, "Sir, didn't Yan Pozi say that she was good at a small official in the household room?" He glanced at Niu Youde and others next to him and said, "Just send these heroes to help, the young actor will definitely be able to find Yan Pozi."

Fang Jingnan suddenly felt that Cheng Beisheng was meticulous and keen, and had some potential to be a spy detective, so he said, "Niu Youde, Fang Xiao, you can find the Yan Mama with him."

*

In the evening, Mrs. Yan was taken to Fang Jingnan, with a bruised and swollen face and a face full of tears.

"This lord, it's really not that my old woman embezzled the silver!"

"Oh? Then why are you hiding from us?"

Mrs. Yan cried and said: "Dingyin was taken over by Manager Lou. I only found out the reason afterwards. Seeing that the commission was about to be lost, the old woman argued a few times, but was beaten up. The matter was not done here, and the old woman dared not come to see you."

"I think it's a bully and an outsider. I want to wait until this matter is over and you can come out again," Fang Jingnan chuckled discontently and said, "Tell me, what's going on here? Otherwise, I won't leave."

While speaking, Niu Youde's knife was resting on her neck.

...

After a cup of tea, Fang Jingnan sat quietly in the chair. The embroidered spring sword that had never been touched before was placed on his legs. His eyes looked into the distance, but there was anger in his eyes that was so strongly restrained.

"Jiexiu Fan, haha! OK!"

*

The next day, the Zhang family merchants who purchased supplies for two days basically bought almost the same thing, and they loaded more than 200 carriages in total, including all categories.

Just wait for them to go back, there will be no shortage of commercial goods in Dong County. Then the news will disperse. The people around the county will naturally pass when they need it. There will not be a lot of people at the beginning, but as long as the surrounding area can be stable, it will gradually prosper.

The one who led the team back was Zhang Zhending, and Zhang Shouren also had to work with Fang Jingnan on the Sitong Trading Company.

However, at this time, the purchase of a shop has not been implemented for a long time.

"Why don't we look for a little bit of a deviation and put up the signboard of the business first and then discuss other things?" Zhang Shouren said.

"No," Fang Jingnan shook his head and said, "What we are not doing is a deal worth hundreds or thousands of taels. If we go out of customs and don't bring a ten thousand taels of goods, wouldn't it be a waste of energy? And without a good shop, we can't show our strength, so it's probably not easy to receive goods."

Fang Jingnan planned to use the Mangzi Camp to escort the road after leaving the customs.

Zhang Shouren said: "But the shops in good locations are all sold in the three major banks, and they can't get around in a short period of time!"

Fang Jingnan thought for a while and suddenly asked Xiang Cheng Beisheng: "Last time in Huairen City, what did you use to move those private houses?"

Cheng Beisheng was stunned and explained the method at that time in detail. Fang Jingnan listened carefully and said, "It's great, there are a few things that need to be changed now!"
