"Huchen, take Xiaowu back to the Victor Chamber of Commerce!" Renlao withdrew his gaze and ordered Zhao Huchen beside him: "Please ask the patrol team of the Chamber of Commerce to come more often to avoid these incidents.
Life matters!”
"Are we afraid that they will cause trouble?"
Wu Huchen's face has lost the greenness of last year. It seems that he has grown up very quickly during this year in Hao Jing'ao.
"What the boss means is that we are not afraid of people causing trouble, but aren't there people in our building who want to come to Hao Jing'ao? If they see that our shop is messy and bloody, then our work this year will be in vain.
Got it!"
Qian Wubing said angrily: "Is our leader a fearful person?"
The counter of Sihai Trading Company is somewhat similar to the pawnshops in the mainland of Ming Dynasty. However, compared to the pawnshop, the counter of Sihai Trading Company is obviously higher and has stronger defense. After all, if someone really robs the pawn shop, it is nothing more than money. However, if Sihai Trading Company
If you are robbed, it is definitely not all for money.
Sihai Trading Company is a trading company that specializes in firearms. They not only purchase, pawn, and sell firearms, but they also take on repair work.
Especially after Victor Chamber of Commerce sold the franchise rights of Ming Dynasty's short-fire muskets to Sihai Trading Company, it was basically difficult to see batches of short-fire muskets being sold in Haojing'ao. Everyone knew that if you wanted two
The above short-fire muskets were either traded privately, or they had to go to this Sihai Trading Company.
Even finding the Victor Chamber of Commerce is useless. All the short-fire muskets produced in the firearms workshop of the Victor Chamber of Commerce are in the warehouse of Sihai Trading Company.
Especially recently, the firearms workshops are almost at full capacity, focusing all their energy on casting cannons. The production of short-fire muskets has been very small. If you want to buy short-fire muskets in batches, there is almost only one Sihai Trading Company.
The road can be walked.
In addition to Ren Lao, Qian Wubing, Wu Huchen and a few others, they have successively hired more people from Zhouzhuang over the past year. Now there are almost a dozen people in the entire business. In Zhao Huchen's words,
Hao Jing Ao, Sihai Trading Company is backed by the Victor Chamber of Commerce and the Ming Dynasty government, and has more than a dozen guys who are armed to the teeth with firearms. They are really not afraid of trouble here!
However, life in Hao Jing Ao is really boring. At least, for a young man like Zhao Huchen, there is only a palm-sized area. When he first came here, it felt fresh, but after the freshness passed,
What you see when you look up are all kinds of vulgar people, all kinds of fights, frauds, and even theft.
In addition, they have not been able to adapt to the weather and food here.
So, it doesn't make much sense here.
Xiangshan County is not too far away from here. Going there every first half of the month has become something that the young people in the shop are scrambling to do. To be honest, if it weren’t for the orders, a place like Haojingao would be a mess.
, they didn’t come even if they were invited.
The one-year period was originally agreed upon, and then someone would rotate them back.
Counting now, the time is almost up, and there is also a letter coming from Zhouzhuang, saying that the people sent here have already left. For Zhao Huchen and others who feel that they are too idle here, this is naturally a surprise.
Big good news.
No matter what happens on weekdays, nothing can happen during this period of time.
Renlao looked at the noisy teenagers, shook his head slightly, and left the counter.
In Zhouzhuang's letter, he only told the young men with limited information, but there was some news that he did not tell them. For example, Tingyulou is now called Nanhaiwei, and Mr. Jiang has become Nanhaiwei.
Your Majesty, Commander of the Guard.
And he has been working hard and stationed here for a year. What official position he will be awarded in the end will have to be reviewed and evaluated by someone from above.
As for the family letter from Ren Yuan, he knew that his brother was now a member of the Nanhaiwei family. He was a genuine sixth-grade military attache. Their brothers had been wandering around in the world for so many years just to have such a person who could honor their ancestors.
As for his future, he thought about it. It was natural that his brother had followed Mr. Jiang through life and death in Beijing and got an official position in a hundred households. However, in the past year in Haojing'ao, he basically didn't seem to have established anything worth talking about.
of credit.
He just runs this firearms shop for Mr. Jiang. In addition to making some supplementary money, most of the time he just receives the short firecrackers made by people. Looking at the hundreds of firecrackers in the warehouse, he really doesn't want to.
I feel that like my brothers, I can live in a hundred households.
Forget it, the general flag is not bad!
Ren Lao sighed and said in his brother's letter that anyone who comes from Tingyulou will start with a small flag when entering Nanhaiwei. He cannot join a hundred households, but there shouldn't be much of a problem joining the general flag. If he really follows
Zhao Huchen and others were awarded a small banner. Putting aside the humiliation, the difference between them and their brothers was too big.
Is it possible that when I see my brother in the future, I will have to call him "Master Baihu?"
Near the counter behind him, Zhao Huchen looked at Qian Wubing and blinked: "Qian Wubing, our leader seems to have something on his mind?"
"How could you not be worried?" Qian Wubing glanced at him angrily: "This rotation, we can go back, but Boss Ren is afraid that we will have to stay in this miserable place. The thought of staying here for a long time
It’s been a year and a half, and it’s strange that Mr. Ren is so happy!”
"Yes!" Zhao Huchen nodded, feeling a little sorry for Ren Lao, but he soon became happy: "By the way, Qian Wubing, who will come to our village this time?
There won’t be anyone we know?”
"Don't think about it, I know what you want to say!" Qian Wubing glanced at him with disdain: "Miss Su and the others will definitely not come to this wretched place, so just give up on this.
, the climate is so uncomfortable this far away, these delicate girls, do you want to see them suffer this?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Zhao Huchen's face turned slightly red, "I didn't think so. I mean, will Mr. Jiang come? After all, there are so many firearms stored in our shop now. These firearms are of no use here.
It has to be transported back to Zhuangzi. If Mr. Jiang doesn't come, we can't dispose of these firearms!"
"Bullshit!" Qian Wubing chuckled: "I'm telling you the main thing. This is the reason. What is a big shot like Mr. Jiang doing in this shabby place? If there is anything, just send some people over and do it.
