Liu Zhang and Yuan Shu had spent a lot of money on Zhen Yan's gold coins before. This time they came back from Yizhou and made the wine. Before they went out for two rounds, they heard that the Zhen family had fallen. They were also shocked.
When they received the news, the two of them were ready to come over and take a look. After all, they have short hands to handle people and soft mouths to eat people. No matter how much they are animals, they still look like humans and can do some human things!
However, the situation was not very clear at that time, and Liu Zhang and Yuan Shu were not very afraid of trouble. However, Liu Bei and Chen Xi were afraid of these two bad things, so they held them down and delayed their release until now.
In fact, Zhang and Zhen Mi were also held down by Liu Bei and Chen Xi. Otherwise, they would have come to see them before. Even if they didn't cause any fun of crying, making trouble, and hanging themselves, they were still the wives of the Ming matchmaker, so what?
Even if you don’t say it, you should be considerate as well.
Therefore, in order to avoid causing trouble for themselves, Liu Bei and Chen Xi kept Zhang and Zhen Mi away from the matter from the beginning. When the two received news from their respective channels, the matter was finalized.
Now that the dust has settled, Liu Zhang and Yuan Shu were released, and they came to see how Zhen Yan was doing. As for the Zhen family, they were really unfamiliar with the others, but now they have seen Zhen Yan and confirmed his condition.
Yes, the two of them didn't panic anymore.
After all, money can be made again if you lose it, especially a guy like Zhen Yan who was trained as a steward of the Zhen family. He is very good at making money. As long as his mentality does not collapse, he can find a way to get involved later.
The soil will come back again.
"In the past, when I was prosperous, I poured you two glasses of wine. Now that I'm down and out, it's you who pour me glasses of wine. It's really strange. I'm really rebelling against Tiangang!" Zhen Yan took the drink from Yuan Shu.
Putting the light yellow wine into the bowl, he said with a bit of ridicule, then picked up the wine bowl and took a big sip boldly. Compared with the pretentious sipping in small sips before, now there is no Marquis Lie.
Without the constraints of being the head of the family, Zhen Yan returned to his true nature again.
"How's it going?" Liu Zhang said with some excitement.
"To be honest, the drinks I served you two are completely different from the ones I served you two before." Zhen Yan wiped his mouth with his sleeve and smacked the wine twice and said truthfully.
"Bullshit, was that wine you drank before? It was all money." Yuan Shu said angrily.
Even with Yuan Shu's arrogance and extravagance, it was far inferior to Zhen Yan back then.
After all, most of the money Yuan Shu had on hand was taken away by the old people of the Yuan family to support the feudal country. The rest was used by Li You to work for the younger brothers in Yuzhou because the talents of the Kuaiji Wang family under Li You were exposed in the country.
I spent a lot of gold coins, and then restricted my consumption. I was completely out of money, and I just relied on my reputation to make a living.
Although with the background of the fifth generation of the old Yuan family, Yuan Shu's status, and the cards of Gungun and Liu Zhang, he can eat well and be happy, and he can make some money wherever he goes, but compared to Zhen
Yan, that difference of eight streets is no joke.
"I thought you two could buy me something nice to drink." Zhen Yan said with a smile, but he didn't put down the wine bowl he was holding. He even reached out and poured himself another bowl, and then showed off with the appetizers.
, When it comes to drinking, I have to decide who I drink with. Zhen Yan herself was depressed, and when she met Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang, who could speak their minds, she was naturally not polite when drinking.
"Not according to our level, but according to the level of ordinary people?" Liu Zhang watched Zhen Yan sink several large bowls, a red light began to appear on his face, and asked seriously, although Liu Zhang was very confident in his and Yuan Shu's judgment,
But they felt that they had to find a professional to ask, and based on the scope of their friendship, Zhen Yan was an absolute professional.
You can say that Zhen Yan has a weak will, lack of consciousness, and weak ability, but Zhen Yan has a really good eye for making money, not to mention that to promote this kind of thing, there must be a strong and powerful channel.
Although Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang are powerful enough, some things are as separate as mountains, and it is difficult for their experience and strength to exert their due effect in this kind of business circle.
On the contrary, the Zhen family, even if it has suffered a heavy blow, is still quite easy to promote certain products as long as all the people are not dead and their previous connections are still there. The so-called family that stands at the top of the five wealthy businessmen is
in this way.
Just like the Hedong Wei family, after taking so many blows, they still stand at the top of the world's richest people.
The Zhen family has suffered heavy losses, but they are not dead yet!
Zhen Yan held the wine bowl, looked at the yellow wine, took another sip, and after a while said, "As long as the large bottle of wine is less than thirty cents, you can make a profit, and if it can be less than twenty-five cents, then this is
Something can have an impact on the wine industry. If it is less than 20 cents, then this thing is the future."
Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang looked at each other after hearing this, their eyes showing relief. Although they estimated that this thing should be profitable, compared with Zhen Yan's professional judgment, this makes people more confident. After all,
Zhen Yan's vision in making money is really trustworthy.
"This is the next business that the two of us will do. It's just that we both lack sales channels. Although Chen Zichuan's sales channels are very good, we still have to prove it in the market in the early stage. Otherwise, some people will inevitably say that we rely too much on our own.
Status, this kind of thing makes people uncomfortable to hear." Liu Zhang opened his mouth to explain, and Zhen Yan put down the wine bowl after hearing this.
"So, the cost of this thing is less than twenty cents?" Zhen Yan reacted almost instantly. As the pillar of the family, there was no hope for him, but he was asked to make money to analyze the future market trend.
Zhen Yan is very good at developing business territory. After all, he is a professional trained in this direction and is very interested in it.
"It would cost about fourteen cents to make so many now." Liu Zhang said, pointing to the wine jar beside him. The jar of wine contained about ten liters.
"How many did you make and spread the cost to this much?" Zhen Yan looked at the wine with shock on his face. Most of the red light on his face disappeared due to concentration.
"I first made tens of thousands of liters, tested the water, and calculated the cost. It's almost this much." Yuan Shu came prepared and answered as accurately as possible.
"Have the land, manpower, transportation, and subsequent depreciation and maintenance been calculated?" Zhen Yan looked at the two people and asked. The two looked at each other, and Zhen Yan instantly understood that the two of them had not realized that these things had to be calculated.
However, according to the Zhen family's previous experience in building an industrial chain and connecting upstream and downstream, although these things are quite expensive, when the business scale is large enough, the average price of these things will be greatly diluted, and I am afraid that the final price will be higher than Shiwenwen.
Lower.
"Why are you looking for me?" Zhen Yan already understood why these two people came to see her, and couldn't help but look at Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang with complicated expressions and asked.
"If I don't look for you, who should I look for? The relationship between the second guard and us is very bad. Both of our subordinates on the Wu family have warned us not to get close to the Wu family in the near future. Doesn't looking for the Mi family mean looking for Chen Zichuan? Isn't it just you?
Already?" Liu Zhang said casually, there was no calculation, he just needed to find a channel to do this, and the only suitable channel for these two people was Zhen Yan.
As for how many of these reasons are due to good ties formed in the past, how many are due to the Zhen family's hundreds of years of fame, and how many are just a matter of liking Zhen Yan, it's hard to say.
"Aren't there other wealthy businessmen?" Zhen Yan looked at Liu Zhang doubtfully and asked.
"What's my identity, and what's their identity?" Yuan Shu looked like a playboy, but Zhen Yan had to admit that what Yuan Shu said was really in line with Yuan Shu's identity.
"But..." Zhen Yan wanted to continue asking, but was directly interrupted by Liu Zhang.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? I just want to talk about whether you can do it or not. If we can't find another one, why can't we really find the right one? It's just because you are pleasing to your eyes. When you are rich, we brothers will try to make fun of you, but you don't
Money, if we want to blackmail you, we have to wait until you have money, right? Just think that we need to find a talent to make money, and you are more suitable, so we came to find you." Yuan Shu said angrily.
"Okay, what should I say at this time?" Zhen Yan raised his head and thought for a moment, "Should I say make it bigger and stronger and create greater glory?"
??????55.??????
"Just do it casually." Yuan Shu said nonchalantly, "In short, the two of us are recruiting someone who is good at managing and operating business to help us make money, and you, my friend, are a perfect fit! As for the legal assistant, we have already hired one
We have always hired professionals for the long term.”
There is no doubt that Man Chong's son Man Wei was hired. Even though Man Chong was very unhappy with his son taking this path, the child was old and could not be restrained forever. What's more, the financial support of his daughter-in-law Sun Min ensured that Man Wei
You can do what you want to do, and gold medal legal commentary and legal loophole cracker are Man Wei's final hobbies after changing jobs many times.
"As long as you are willing to believe that I am a guy who can run a large Zhen family, I don't have any objections to the rest." Zhen Yan told the truth.
"You are not suitable to manage a family. If it were a normal period, your decentralization and relying on the strength of the family would not cause any big troubles, but these days..." Yuan Shu said with a sneer, "It is neither ruthless enough nor ruthless enough.
If you don’t dare to fight and don’t have a thick face, something will happen sooner or later.”
"It's my brother-in-law who asked you to take it, right?" Zhen Yan suddenly reacted.
"That's right." Yuan Shu nodded, "I just added a few words to it."
Troubled times are the times when there are the most opportunities, but they are also the most cruel and bloody times. Even high-ranking families may be easily wiped out in this violent shuffling process. Families that are not ruthless enough will not be like the Yong family.
Get out of the chess game completely and stay away from the political whirlpool, otherwise disaster will befall you sooner or later.
The problem is that if we don't seize such opportunities, it will be difficult for wealthy families to get further opportunities. At this time, if we don't fight hard, the progress of other families will be equivalent to the decline of our own family.
"I was not trained as the head of the family, and I have no ambition in this regard. My previous position was to be released as the steward of a certain area. But suddenly one day, my mother remarried to the Taiwei, and then passed away.
In less than five years, the younger sister who was trained as the head of the family also got married, and I became the head of the family inexplicably." Zhen Yan looked at the two of them with a bit of complexity and said.
"To be honest, I didn't want to do it from the beginning, but I was pushed up. The elders of the clan recommended me. My mother named me. My sister thought that I was the eldest brother and should inherit it after losing the direct lineage.
The head of the family, so I am the head of the family, the question is, what do I study? Am I a genius? I completed the education of the family head in a few months?" Zhen Yan said with a bit of fatigue.
"I felt very reluctant from the beginning. The only thing that makes me happy is probably that I built a sugar industry belonging to the Zhen family, improved the upstream and downstream of the industry, and made the Zhen family the unique leader in the current sugar industry, realizing what I have achieved
I once had the desire to dominate a certain business field, but I really don’t understand the rest." Zhen Yan seemed to be venting his anger, dumping all his grievances on Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang.
"I am not Chen Zichuan, nor am I a born god. I am just a businessman who can make some money and do industrial planning. What I have mastered and what I have learned since I was young are doing industrial planning and doing business for the Zhen family.
Money, dedicated to the head of the family, and in the end, I am the head of the family? What the hell do I know!" Zhen Yan cursed with a bit of anger, "Zhen Yao is more suitable than me, but I was the only one to recommend Zhen Yao. Why, just because of me?
I am the oldest, so I have to bear the burden of this family, am I worthy?"
"I hate having eldest son and direct heir, and since I am the head of the family, why can't I pass the headship to Zhen Yao and let me pursue my dream? I just want to make a sum of money that will make the Zhen family look at me, head of the family? Me
"Dang? Who asked me if I could?" Zhen Yan pointed at herself, the bitterness on her face could not be erased.
"Ever since I was elected as the head of the family and failed to pass the title of head of the family to my brother Zhen Yao on the first order of the head of the family, I knew that I was not the head of the family." Zhen Yan patted the table and said with a bit of resentment, "He
Damn it, my ideals have exploded, the head of the family should still be a good person, what a piece of shit! I spend my money and drink wildly, only then can I realize that I am indeed the noblest of princes and the head of the Zhen family."
"Then why didn't you tell Chen Zichuan?" Yuan Shu looked at Zhen Yan as if he were a monkey.
"How can I let my brother-in-law kill me?" Zhen Yan sighed and restrained his anger.
"He won't. The superior Gu Yue will not deliberately interfere in the human world. He will only suggest that I suppress the clan elders and take back the so-called real power. But what is the real power? If I take it back, I can do the things I want to do.
"No, I can't do those things after I take it back." Zhen Yan held the wine bowl and said softly, "This road that doesn't belong to me has no end, and only when the road is cut off like this can I stop."
, let me do what I want to do.”
"It's so hypocritical." Chen Xi opened the door and looked at Zhen Yan and said. He didn't hear the first part, but he heard the second half.
Zhen Yan kept silent. He did not dare to talk nonsense in front of Chen Xi. Even if he drank and indulged, he would involuntarily restrain himself when facing Chen Xi.
"Why don't you say anything?" Chen Xi looked at Zhen Yan and said.
"The city of Media, thousands of miles away, fell. No less than 10,000 Han and Roman civilians were killed or injured, and no less than 150,000 Parthian people were affected by this incident. The locust plague in East Africa is about to take off. If the third round continues
Sweeping across, Central Asia is full of starvation, and even the locust plague covering Chang'an for several days is not a problem. Do you still have the mind to consider these things now?" Chen Xi said coldly to Zhen Yan.
"In what capacity should I answer your question?" Zhen Yan was silent for a while and looked at Chen Xi and asked, "Brother-in-law, a criminal, an ordinary person?"
"What do you want to say?" Chen Xi frowned and said, he felt that Zhen Yan had changed a lot from when he had seen her before.
"I am not good at being the head of the family. When my first order as head of the family was rejected, I understood why I was chosen. Although I can win it back through struggle and your help in the future, this is not what it is.
What I want." Zhen Yan said in a low voice.
"So you gave up and only did the things you were interested in, and then you drank and drank as much as you wanted." Chen Xi said coldly, "You are right, this is not what you want, but the head of the Zhen family
, if you firmly refuse from the beginning, it will not fall on you. This is the most important thing. It is you who accepted it and then regretted it."
"I just longed for my mother to control the family at will, so I didn't strongly refuse when I was recommended, but later I realized that I was not the material." Zhen Yan's voice was a little disappointed.
"But after all, you accepted this responsibility. You didn't have to be a puppet. You gave up your responsibility yourself, so when it's time to take responsibility, don't be resentful. The head of a noble family must at least have the awareness to afford to lose.
"Chen Xi looked at Zhen Yan and said with a bit of coldness.
"I have lost too much, and I don't want to bear this responsibility." Zhen Yan shook his head and said.
"When you kill the clan elders until only one person is left to vent your inner anger, you should realize that it is also a way to pin the blame on one person." Chen Xi looked at Zhen Yan calmly and said, "One
Peck and drink, that's it. I accepted the responsibility, but regretted it because the responsibility was too heavy, so I abandoned the responsibility, which led to backlash. The fault lies with the Zhen family, but uncle, are you right?"
Zhen Yan was speechless.
"Whether you use the guards I gave you right or wrong, it doesn't matter. They killed people like rivers of blood and heads, and I don't want to pursue it. After all, this is the internal affairs of the Zhen family, and the struggle for power within the family.
This identity does not matter, but I am your brother-in-law, and I have to say that the butcher's knife cuts through very quickly, but what about the follow-up?" Chen Xi looked at Zhen Yan calmly.
"I am no longer the head of the family. Zhen Yao will be the head of the family from now on." Zhen Yan said softly.
"Is this the answer?" Chen Xi looked at Zhen Yan.
"Go away, use your dreams to build the Zhen family's business territory." Chen Xi no longer wanted to scold him. He originally thought he could wake him up and deliberately left part of the industry behind, but this turned out to be the case.
If you have the votes, vote. This is really hopeless.
