Chapter 226 Mr. Hu's differences
Of course, vegetables must be sold to the capital. It is not just words that can deliver the vegetables from the farmers' fields to the tables of the people in the capital. After a whole set of processes, if one place is not connected well, the juicy and tender chicken feather vegetables can make Su Ruojin cry. She had experienced this kind of failure when her father called her mother in her previous life.
So, the next day, Su Ruojin started busy, first buying a shop, and then finding a warehouse. Of course, the biggest problem was transportation. In ancient times, the land route was either an ox cart or a horse cart. It was not only slow, but also bumpy, and the fresh chicken feather vegetables could not pass through it. Live like this.
After the drought and turmoil, the economy in Weizhou County was in recession, and many shops were either for sale or for rent. Su Ruojin quickly found one, bought it directly, and put up a sign for harvesting vegetables.
Huaping came down from the ladder and looked towards the street, "Su Erniang, farmers are farming at home, and few people come to the street, so I know you are here to collect vegetables."
He was right to worry. Su Ruojin smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Hua is also a good hand in business now."
If you haven't seen Pig Run, haven't you eaten pork?
Huaping was dissatisfied with the young lady's teasing tone and turned his eyes away from her.
Su Ruojin laughed and said, "In order to let the farmers know that there are people in the county collecting vegetables, I asked Uncle Hua Ping to drive around a twenty or thirty mile radius and tell them that Su Ji Grocery Store collects vegetables from the beginning of the morning to the end of the morning. (5 a.m. to 7 a.m.) End, starting from ten pounds.”
Huaping didn't complain about treating him as an errand boy. As the chief inspector, he also had people under him. Taking advantage of the opportunity to recruit long-term workers, he hired two to help him. Before going to the countryside, he asked curiously, "Su Erniang, how do you transport it to the capital? There is only so much that can be carried in a horse-drawn carriage or an ox-cart."
Zhao Lan, who was following Su Ruojin, was also curious, and Hua Ping also asked what he wanted to ask.
"Use a boat!"
People who usually travel by horse-drawn carriage or ox-cart:…
Su Ruojin saw their stunned faces, "Jinshui River, Guangji River, Bianhe..." There were two rivers passing through the city. Although the drought caused the river level to drop sharply, the drought has eased during this period. , big ships can't go, but small and medium-sized ships are still not a problem.
Sure enough, not everyone can make a fortune. Look at this lady, they just looked at the scenery along the way. She even knows the water level. It's really not as good as she doesn't know, but she's really convinced by the comparison.
People have this kind of brain.
Su Ruojin didn't know what they were thinking. She bared her teeth and smiled at Zhao Lan, "Brother Jin..."
Zhao Lan stroked his forehead and said, Okay, don't say anything anymore, he understood, and brushed Shuangrui twice with his other hand.
Shuang Rui looked at Mrs. Su Er with a complicated look on her face and thought to herself, how did the young lady know that the young prince had a boat?
How could she not know? When designing a hot pot restaurant, many decoration materials had to be bought from the south. Didn't Zhao Lan use his own boats?
Aren't the luxurious carriages and ships of noble gentlemen in ancient times equivalent to the luxury cars and cruise ships of later generations?
Thinking about it this way, oh my god, I am in love with a rich, handsome young man. Does this mean I have experienced the story of Cinderella and the rich man?
Too far… too far…
Su Ruojin left the business in the shop to Ye Huaizhen. If she hadn't called Hua Ping her uncle, she wouldn't have called Ye Huaizhen her aunt. She would have called her "Sister Ye" sweetly. Unfortunately, the seniority cannot be messed up, so she can only call: " Aunt Ye, it's all your fault here.”
"You're welcome, little boss."
The general framework is in place, and all that remains is to recruit small supervisors, long-term and part-time workers.
Su Ruojin originally wanted to post a recruitment notice at the door of the shop, but it was posted on the front and was uncovered on the back.
"Master Hu?"
Hu Yongshou quickly raised his hands and saluted, "I have met Mrs. Su Er."
Hu Yongshou, the former official of Weizhou County, has now been promoted to the position of Chief Bo of Weizhou County. He has jumped from the rank of no rank to the ninth rank. He is an official official of the imperial court. His official position is a gift from Su Yanli's gang. He can be approved so quickly. Except for He is the only subordinate official in Weizhou County who can take charge in times of turmoil. Of course, there are people in the court who are easy to serve as officials.
There are many people who work hard for the court, but they also cannot get recognition and promotion from the court. He was able to be promoted successfully because of Su Yanli's teacher, Master Fan. It was his words that finally made him become a Su Yanli in his lifetime. Ninth grade official.
"Master Hu, what are you..."
Master Hu pulled the young lady aside and whispered, "Old man, I'm not meddling in other people's business. Ever since Second Madam, you started buying shops and looking for warehouses, the local tyrants and evil gentry in Weizhou County who have been suppressed by the adults have been ready to take action. They are looking for If there is an opportunity to cause damage, if you recruit workers openly, you will give them the opportunity to take advantage of it.”
Su Ruojin: ...She is just a small businesswoman. Why is it so complicated now? Besides, because Su Yanli's parents were officials in Weizhou County, she always chose ordinary shops in remote places to buy them, just for fear of getting her father into unnecessary trouble.
I didn't expect that I would be restricted in doing things, but what Master Hu said made sense.
"What do you mean?"
Unexpectedly, Master Hu said with a shy face, "If Mrs. Su Er can trust my Hu family, let my son find you what kind of person you want."
Su Ruojin deliberately asked, "Are you looking for your relatives?"
"If there is someone in my family that Su Er Niang likes, of course I will introduce him to him."
This was clear enough. Su Ruojin raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Then let me see what kind of handyman Mr. Hu can find for us first."
"It's easy to talk about." Magistrate Su's daughter relented. Hu Yongshou was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. He patted his heart and reassured himself a few times before trotting home to find his eldest son.
Ye Huaizhen stood next to Su Ruojin and whispered, "My little boss, how dare this person blatantly seek benefits for his own family."
It's a good thing to make things clear. At least, you can clearly know what they think and want, which makes it easier to do things.
She turned her head and said, "Brother Jin, what do you think?"
Zhao Lan was like a follower, following Su Ruojin wherever he went.
While Su Ruojin was working and doing business, he stayed aside. If it weren't for his appearance, you wouldn't be able to feel his presence.
"feasible."
At work, Zhao Lan never interrupts, but when the young lady needs him, he does not hesitate. When asking for opinions, he speaks simply and forcefully.
When the young lady heard his suggestion, she beamed and felt relaxed and happy, "Brother Jin still understands me."
Ye Huaizhen:…
I suspect you are spreading shit, but I have no proof.
That night, after the Su family had dinner, Hu Yongshou's eldest son, Hu Xiaoan, sent her two long-term workers, both strong men in their twenties. "One of them is from the county government fire brigade, and the other is a coolie at the dock." "Both of them are strong and willing to endure hardships. If you come to Er Niangzi's side, you will definitely be satisfied."
It looked good just by looking at it. Su Ruojin believed that the person Hu Yongshou volunteered to introduce for the first time must be good, so he nodded and accepted, "I will give you a commission based on the market price of the dental shop in Beijing."
"Second...Second Lady, you are so polite." When they first met, Hu Dalang and Hu Xiaoan had no intention of asking for dental fees. He didn't expect Mr. Su's daughter to be so generous, which made him a little embarrassed.
Things that can be solved with money are not a problem for Su Ruojin. If the Hu family doesn't want personal fees, then she won't dare to cooperate with them next time, because the more she looks at free things or people and things, That means that the other party has a big plan, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the trap.
It's good to ask for money.
Su Ruojin accepted the person, but after all, Su Yanli was a foreign official and could not compete with the local gangsters, so he asked Hua Ping to check it out, and asked Ye Huaizhen to be more careful when employing people.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
Huaping traveled twenty or thirty miles around and promoted it for three days. On the fourth day, someone came to Suji Grocery Store with doubts and asked cautiously, "I heard that vegetables are collected here, right?"
Ye Huaizhen glanced at the hired worker Zhang Maosan.
He immediately stepped forward and said with a smile, "That's it... That's it, uncle, what kind of food is in your basket?"
"Do you want chicken lettuce and pea heads?"
"Yes, I want them all, but we have to check the quality before accepting the fresh ones." "They are all fresh." The old man confirmed that he had really received them, and happily asked his two sons to carry all four baskets to the door.
Ye Huaizhen stepped forward to take a look, and another employee, Li Chun, came over and weighed the weight together with Zhang Maosan.
On this day, there were not many people, and everyone had the mentality of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, the worthless vegetables were really sold for money. Almost all the people who came to sell them jumped back. What were they doing? Of course, we will allocate vegetables from the fields and sell them!
Zhao Lan followed Su Ruojin and stood at the door of the shop for a while before leaving.
Mao Ya looked at the excited people returning and muttered, "Once they spread the word, there will definitely be a lot of people selling vegetables tomorrow."
Hearing her words, Su Ruojin and Zhao Lan looked at each other, and then said to her, "Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, there may still be so many people, but there will definitely be a lot of people in the future."
"Ah!" Mao Ya was puzzled, "Why won't there be more tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"
Su Ruojin and Zhao Lan looked at each other again and smiled at each other.
Mao Ya was puzzled by their laughter, "Maybe they are far away from the county seat?"
Su Ruojin shook his head: "That's not the reason."
"what is that?"
Su Ruojin said helplessly, "Because they will hide the actual collection of vegetables in the county, but after all, Uncle Hua has publicized it, and there are probably many people who know about it. Among these people who know, there may be people who came to see the sales today, and some are watching." , Those who got the benefit today went home and quietly picked vegetables to sell. The more they kept it secret, the more people's curiosity was aroused. Two days later, it was like a surge of people flocking to the door of our shop to buy vegetables. "
Mao Ya: ...She seems to understand, but she doesn't seem to understand.
Things turned out as Su Ruojin expected. The vegetables collected in the first two days were delivered to Zhao Lan's restaurant by a carriage, and the vegetables collected on the third and fourth days were loaded into a boat in an instant.
Su Ruojin and Zhao Lan didn't have time to stand in front of the Weizhou County shop and watch. They took a carriage to Beijing quickly the day after collecting the vegetables, paving the way for the sale of the whole boat of vegetables two days later.
The initial shipments from Jinwang Mansion, Zhao Lan Private Estate, Madam Fan Restaurant, etc. were very short of ingredients. Even though they were just simple seasonal vegetables, it was still better than not having any ingredients to cook with. "
After arriving in the capital, Su Ruojin thought she would be very busy, but in the end, Zhao Lan's manager Siping took care of everything, and she was actually very free.
Su Ruojin: ...Then why did she come to the capital?
Zhao Lan smiled and said, "Stay with me!"
Su Ruojin:…
Suddenly, she yawned and rubbed her nose. Was someone talking about her?
In Weizhou County, after dealing with a day of roosters and dog robbers, Su Yanli returned home and suddenly felt that the table was much empty. It turned out that her daughter had gone out again.
The home without the eldest daughter always feels deserted.
"I wonder how many days it will take Ah Jin to return to the capital this time?" Su Yanli took off his shoes and socks, put his feet into the wooden basin and soaked them to relieve fatigue.
Cheng Yingzhen was making the bed and sighed slightly when she heard the man mentioning his eldest daughter.
"You miss Ah Jin too?"
Cheng Yingzhen shook her head.
"What's the matter?" Su Yanli felt that his wife was in a bad mood, so he stretched out his hand to pull her to sit next to him, "The county magistrate and county captain have not yet been sent to the court. I am the only one who has no time to help the family. Thanks a lot."
"There is a capable girl like Qiuyue at home, and I have nothing to do."
"Then why are you unhappy?"
Cheng Yingzhen looked at her husband, "Have you noticed A Jin and the little prince..."
"Jinzhi grew up with our children. They are close to each other. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Cheng Yingzhen rolled her eyes at the man, "Why don't you see the little prince getting close to Sanlang and Silang?"
Su Yanli paused for a moment, "Ajin is very capable. Even us adults like to stick to her. The little prince probably also appreciates her."
Cheng Yingzhen was speechless, "You have such a big heart."
Su Yanli's expression became serious when his wife said this, "You mean, Ah Jin likes the little prince?"
Cheng Yingzhen slapped him on the shoulder and said, "It's the opposite."
"The little prince likes our Ah Jin?" Su Yanli's eyes lit up and he burst out laughing, "I guess this guy has a lot of vision."
Cheng Yingzhen:…
Even when treating each other with the courtesy of teacher and student, Su Yanli always spoke like a little prince, but at this moment, his tone was so loud that he said, "This kid".
Cheng Yingzhen shook her head, "Official, I am a small county prince, and we are the family of a small official."
The happy Su Yanli's smile suddenly stopped: "But our Ah Jin is so good, he is not bad for the little prince, right?"
In the minds of parents, of course their children are always the best, but these cannot withstand the differences brought about by class. This is a fact that must be accepted.
Su Yanli suddenly became worried and even forgot to wash his feet.
The old couple chatted for half the night without coming up with anything.
In the middle of the night, when Su Yanli heard the watchman knocking the clock, he yawned and said, "Go to sleep, go to sleep, we will talk about the future later."
Cheng Yingzhen just sighed and said nothing.
Su Ruojin didn't know that her mother had noticed that there was something unusual between the two of them, and was even worried about their future marriage. Now that she had come to the capital, she was not idle and found Su Yanzu.
Su Yanzu didn't expect his niece to come looking for him.
"How is Ayu doing in Wei County?"
Su Ruojin replied: "He is helping my father."
"Oh." Su Yanzu was silent for a long time without speaking.
There has been a long journey between Su and Shangguan. Although Su Ruojin did not see everything, he also saw that they were getting further and further from the deepest love to the present.
However, when she came today, she was not concerned about whether the two of them would grow apart, but asked, "Brother-in-law, how is your grain store business?"
"Thanks to the princess, we can still operate normally."
Uh...princess...
Su Ruojin skipped it and asked again, "Can you go to Weizhou County to open a grain store?"
