349. Chapter 349 Wealth is not easy for a wife, expensive is not easy for friends
When you revisit your old place, you will always have some sense of it, even if this old place does not play a big role in Qian Wubing's short life.
There is still his house in Nanjing city. Of course, it is currently the residence of Wu Qianhu of Longjiang Qianhu House. The servants in the house have not been replaced. When Qian Wubing and Wu Huchen walked in side by side, those few
The servant was obviously panicked, probably because he didn't know how to address Qian Wubing.
"The news came earlier that brother-in-law and you were staying in Jining. I thought you would arrive some days ago, but I didn't expect that you never stopped on the road again. I didn't send someone to report to my uncle until we arrived in Zhenjiang.
Master!" Wu Huchen waved his hand, letting the servants who had been struggling for a long time disperse, and walked to the hall with Qian Wubing.
"I thought of giving my uncle a surprise in Nanjing. However, the guerrilla general of the Navy was not so bold. In the land of Nanzhili, the two warships were neither on defense nor on patrol. They ran away
If you come here to Yingtian Mansion and don't report to our uncle, he is really brave!" Qian Wubing smiled and looked at the familiar layout around him. It was obvious that after Qian Wubing left, Wu Huchen and his son
, not much change was made to the furnishings of the house.
"Then the little princess and the princess, you just let them go alone? Did my uncle say that he would cleanse you of your dust tonight?"
"The Prince's Mansion has already purchased a house here. Even if it has not been purchased, how can this Prince's face still not be able to find a place to live in Nanjing? Don't worry about these things. Didn't you send someone to follow?"
Qian Wubing didn't take it seriously. When he got here, he still had to worry about these things, so Wang Yue, the guarding eunuch, really didn't have to mess around.
When he was on the ship, Qian Wubing had been thinking about a person. For this person, Qian Wubing always felt a little guilty for him. But when he came to Nanjing this time, how to arrange this person has almost become his decision.
heart disease.
"By the way, I heard you say that Liu Zigu still has some contact with you. What is he doing now?" Qian Wubing asked.
"He!" Wu Huchen laughed, "He is very proud now. The family business is getting bigger and bigger thanks to our building. I remember your instructions, brother-in-law. He is a good friend of brother-in-law, and he is in the building.
As a director in the house, who can say anything wrong? But last month, he married a concubine. But I heard that he was a real wife, but he was punished to kneel outside the door all night. It's ridiculous to say that
Laughing like crazy!"
Qian Wubing also laughed, and he was a little relieved. After all, he was the one who told Wu Huchen to take care of Liu Zigu if he could. It seemed that Wu Huchen took his words into consideration.
"Sihailou has opened a store in the capital. The main office in Nanjing has become a branch office. How is the business?"
"Of course it can't be compared with the capital, but the prosperity of Nanzhili is much better than that of the capital. The business of the building in the capital has not affected this place. On the contrary, for more than half a year, the monthly income has been
Increase!" Wu Huchen chuckled and said: "Otherwise, you would think that there are hundreds of people in our Longjiang Thousand Households Residence, and they are all supported by the money in the building!"
"Over there in the bull market, I don't want you to stay in Longjiang. I can't stand the territory over there in the bull market. This business is booming. There are always some people who are jealous. There are many capable people in Nanjing.
Don’t be tricked by others!”
"How dare they!" Wu Huchen said proudly: "There are hundreds of households in the bull market right now. I used to have a small flag under me. He was very clever. If there is something that Jin Yiwei still can't resolve, he will naturally have his uncle. Now in Nanjing City
, who doesn’t know that this is a deal between our uncle and Jin Yiwei, if anyone has a wrong idea, he must think carefully about it first!”
Qian Wubing nodded and said no more. For now, Wu Huchen could rely on Wang Yue and the power of Jinyiwei. In a few years, Wang Yue would no longer be in his position, and he could still rely on himself. This little guy's life would be much better than his own.
"We will eat at home at noon. You ask the cook to prepare snacks. By the way, send someone to Liu Zigu and invite him over. I heard Yan Ran say that when Agelina came to our family to extort ransom last year, Liu Zigu took care of it.
Yes, we can accept this favor! Since then, this is my first time coming back. When we meet old friends again, we have to have a few drinks!"
"I got it, brother-in-law, just wait and I'll send someone out to take care of it!"
As Wu Huchen said, Liu Zigu has lived a very happy life in the past year. With his little business, he can't be ranked in the Sihai Tower. However, he is a good friend of two bull market 100 households. This
He just doesn't sit in the director's position. Those guys in the business field still think that he is hypocritical. Only by being connected with colleagues who are close to Jin Yiwei can his own interests be protected. Businessmen think very clearly about this kind of joint.
of.
What followed naturally was that his business gradually expanded, and the people he met were at different levels. The merchants who came to Sihailou and just a little bit of business were enough for him to do it for a year and a half before, let alone this.
This kind of thing, people still take care of it, so it is difficult for him not to make a fortune.
Of course he knew where his wealth came from, so whether it was when Wu Dazhong was there or when Wu Huchen was the head of the family, he would run very diligently to the Qian family. Even Wang Yue knew that there was a person like him.
Wu Huchen even took him to the guard eunuch's house for a meal. As a businessman, he was a model of success.
He has always been concerned about Qian Wubing. Qian Wubing returned to the capital from Shanxi, became a thousand households, and then became the governor of Nanya. He was happy from the bottom of his heart. If Wu Dazhong hadn't stopped him,
He had to prepare a generous gift and send it to Qian Wubing to congratulate him. Unfortunately, Qian Wubing never sent him a letter, which made him slightly confused. As the saying goes, wealth is easy, wife is easy to be valuable.
Friend, Qian Wubing is considered rich and powerful, but his friend can only be regarded as an acquaintance of the poor and the humble! People really don’t remember him, and he has nothing to complain about.
Fortunately, Qian Wubing left him some connections. At least his brother-in-law and father-in-law took good care of him in Nanjing. After the struggle, Liu Zigu's enthusiasm for Qian Wubing slowly faded away.
Except for occasionally asking about Qian Wubing's current situation in front of the Wu family and his son, he rarely mentioned this person in front of outsiders. Perhaps he himself did not realize that this friendship seemed to have the flavor of a friendship between gentlemen.
More than a dozen large-scale ships have been launched at the Longjiang Bao Shipyard. Everyone knows that they must be going to overseas places such as Fusang Country and Koryo Country to make money. In the past, Jiangnan merchants, even if they were engaged in maritime trade, would only carry a few or two ships.
Oh my God, a scale like this is simply unheard of. After all, risks and benefits are proportional. When it comes to going to sea, if nothing goes wrong, it will be gold and silver. If something goes wrong, families will be ruined and everyone will lose everything. This kind of thing is not unusual at all.
Even businessmen with some wealth will not put all their wealth on this.
What surprised Liu Zigu was that he was also involved in such a good thing. Mr. Tang, who was said to be working in Qian Wubing's mansion, actually sent someone over to ask if he was interested in organizing some goods to be sold overseas.
, this kind of good thing, what is the difference between this and giving him money directly? Is it possible that if someone can build such a large fleet, they will be short of money to buy goods?
He had some vague doubts in his heart. He was afraid that Qian Wubing was involved in this fleet. As expected, not long after, Wu Huchen, a small household of 100, turned into a household of 1,000, and it was also a special purpose.
Qian Hu opened a Qianhu Office, and the Qianhu Office was located in Longjiang Bao Shipyard, which almost confirmed his conjecture. If it weren't for his family's business interests, Qian Wubing would be willing to remove his brother-in-law from every inch of land.
Gold’s bull market, does it look at the current treasure shipyard?
These days, he cares more about sea trade than anyone else. In Nanjing, what kind of goods can be shipped overseas to make the most money. After understanding this, he has to make a calculation. With his family background, he can guarantee that if something goes wrong, nothing will happen.
When his own strength is hurt, how much money can he divert to purchase goods? How to configure various goods to maximize profits, etc.!
Just like right now, he is lying in the small pavilion in the courtyard, tinkering with the abacus and accounting books alone for a long time.
"Master, let's eat some snacks and drink some tea before we do this!" A soft voice sounded in his ears. He turned his head to look, smiled and hugged the woman next to him.
This is her newly married concubine. Compared with the first wife his father found for him, she is much more charming.
"Master, you can let the accountant do the things related to the accounts. They take the master's money, but they make the master work so hard. Isn't that right?"
"Haha!" Liu Zigu put down the pen in his hand and scratched the small nose of the beauty in his arms with his finger: "You are wrong about this. No one can do this with your own hands. No matter how tired you are, I have to do it myself!"
"Didn't you fall in love with the beaded headdress from Deguifang?" Liu Zigu said with a smile: "As long as you serve the master to your satisfaction and follow the fancy postures in Mr. Tang's paintings, this time
Once the deal is over, I will allow it to you! The clearer the deal is, the more money you will make, don’t you like it?"
"Of course I do!" The woman laughed and kissed him on the face: "Master, you treat me so well!"
"Ahem!" Two familiar coughs sounded, and the two hurriedly separated. On one side, looking at the two of them with wide eyes and blowing beards, wasn't it Liu Zigu's father who was a doctor in Nanjing's household department?
"Dad, you got off duty so early today!" Liu Zigu smiled and motioned for his woman to go into the inner room.
"It's getting more and more ridiculous. I don't see you being so attentive to business!" Father Liu rolled his eyes at his son: "Then Wu Xiaoqianhu sent someone to the house to invite you to have a drink. What's the matter? You still picked up Qiao. You'd rather stay at home.
Nai Wai, do you want to leave people out to dry?"
"Ah!" Liu Zigu stood up: "Where is he? Why didn't anyone report it to me!?"
"Waiting for you outside, how dare your servants come here if you are like this!" Father Liu said angrily: "Go quickly, go quickly, don't let people think you are putting on airs because you have some dirty money!"
When you revisit your old place, you will always have some sense of it, even if this old place does not play a big role in Qian Wubing's short life.
