Chapter 574 Jia Ji Bathhouse

Jiaji Bathhouse is one of the most upscale bathhouses in the pier.

There are twenty pools in the bathhouse, with winding paths leading to secluded areas and scattered at random. Although the houses are not very gorgeous, they are definitely grand.

Jia Cong, the owner of the bathhouse, is over fifty years old. In his early years, he worked as a worker on the dock. He has done everything, including writing, arithmetic, and fighting.

The history of his fortune was one of the subjects of conversation after dinner at the dock.

Twenty years ago, Jia Cong had been hanging out at the dock for more than thirty years without making a name for himself. He saw that this would be the end of his life. As time went by, God gave him a widow.

The widow's family ran this bathhouse, and the widow's late husband was the former owner of this bathhouse.

Jia Cong is a scrub boy in the bathhouse.

How can we talk about the importance of culture? You are not required to be talented in literature, but you must be able to read and write, and you are not required to know function algebra or high numbers, but you must be able to add, subtract, multiply and divide.

Jia Cong is good at writing and arithmetic. Even if he is a clerk, he is the best among the clerks.

Moreover, Jia Cong also practiced martial arts at the dock. Not only could he memorize and calculate, he could also look after homes and nursing homes.

You said, what shopkeeper wouldn’t like a wage earner like this?

Same money, same things.

Two words: dedication.

So Jia Cong gradually became the former shopkeeper's favorite guy, and he was easy to use.

Not only does the former shopkeeper like him, but the wife of the former shopkeeper who is not yet a widow also likes him.

As a family, we always have similar hobbies.

It's just that the two like them in different ways.

The former shopkeeper liked to instruct Jia Cong to do work. He did a lot of work but gave him little money, which made Jia Cong unhappy.

As for the widow, when the former shopkeeper was not at home, she also liked to instruct Jia Cong to do a lot of work. She often stayed up late and didn't pay a penny, but Jia Cong was very happy.

It's so strange.

Then...then the former shopkeeper fell ill and died.

As for how he died, I don't know.

I don't know if there is a plot like "Da Lang drinks medicine" in it.

He's dead anyway.

When the former shopkeeper died, the widow was very sad.

When you are sad, you need someone to comfort you, and Jia Cong stepped forward.

How to comfort?

Of course, I used my special skill - taking a bath.

Rub the top, rub the bottom, rub the outside and rub the inside.

Rubbing it back and forth, the widow was very satisfied.

So Jia Cong suddenly changed his identity and became the current owner of the bathhouse.

Pity the former shopkeeper, he was scrimping on every detail, and ended up working for Jia Cong.

As the old saying goes, it is better to die than to live in vain.

Until the coffin is finalized, you won’t know who you have been working for in this life.

It’s not over yet. Although the former shopkeeper left the bathhouse industry, it only had five or six bathhouses and four or five waiters. It was more than enough, but not enough. The food, clothing and clothing were acceptable. If you want

Wealthy, but far worse.

It stands to reason that no matter how well Jia Cong manages his business, he will not be able to grow his business in a short period of time.

But Jia Cong did it, as to where his financial resources came from.

There are two versions in the market, one is that the former shopkeeper left a large amount of money, and the other is that a wealthy businessman died suddenly in the bathhouse, and his wealth was taken by Jia Cong.

In any case, Jia Cong expanded the bathhouse, expanded the shops, built houses, and increased the number of bathhouses to more than twenty. He hired twenty or thirty workers, and the quality of the bathhouse was immediately improved.

The objects of reception have also changed from ordinary people at the dock to wealthy people such as merchants, nobles, officials and so on.

In a word, the industry has been upgraded.

Moreover, Jia Cong has a lively mind and can come up with some new tricks, such as opening a tea shop in the bathhouse, inviting storytellers to tell stories, etc.

In short, Jia Ji Bathhouse cannot be said to be very prosperous, but its life has been relatively smooth for nearly twenty years.

But in the past two years, the bathhouse has ceased to function.

Nothing else. The capital city has been in turmoil for many times. The common people are still poor, while the wealthy class are dying or fleeing, and their vitality is severely damaged.

The past six months have been even more miserable, as we can't receive many guests all day long.

But the problem is that the water needs to be boiled, and the workers have to be paid when they are hired.

Expenses can be reduced, but there is always a lower limit, and the income is not much.

On this day, Jia Cong was sitting on the recliner behind the counter, feeling drowsy.
