Siheyuan: The Ambition of Sanzang

Chapter 382 60. Agricultural Survey
At this moment, his daughter-in-law, Jingru, had already packed her suitcase and came in, looking at Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang, who were lying on the ground with their heads in their arms, and Yan Jiefang asked suspiciously, "Hey, husband, what's wrong with them?"

"Nothing? I have nowhere to go, and I want to ask for help." Sanzang shook his head helplessly.

"Oh." Jingru nodded after listening, and didn't ask any more questions. She always didn't care about these things.

"Well...you can pour a cup of tea for these two brothers, and then you can prepare four-color snacks for me after the work is done, and I have to visit a guest later." Sanzang raised his left hand and looked at his watch, the time was still a bit early .

"What grade?" Jingru asked while pouring tea.

"Hmm... the same as the Dongwa and the Hong Kong city, this person is more important." Sanzang pondered for a while and said with a smile.

"Understood." Jingru nodded to indicate that she understood.

"Thank you sister-in-law." Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang looked at the teacup that Jingru brought over, and said gratefully.

"Drink slowly." Jingru put the saucer on the living room cabinet and turned to leave.

Sanzang waited for his daughter-in-law to leave the living room, stared at Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang with sharp eyes, and said with a serious face, "I won't invite you to sit today, so you two can reflect on yourself while squatting."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's good to squat like this, it's comfortable to squat." Liu Guangtian agreed cheekily, and he also figured it out. Sanzang was willing to talk to them, which meant that they could still be saved.

"If it's not for the sake of you two, I really don't want to talk to you two. I have helped you once, and this is the second time. I don't want to have the third time. Do you understand?" Sanzang said in a deep voice.

"Understand, understand, from now on I will change my mind and be an honest person." Yan Jiefang quickly raised two fingers and swore.

"Me too." Liu Guangtian also made the same gesture.

"Okay, I'll trust you for now, you have to be responsible for your own words and deeds, and I won't care if you come to me again if something goes wrong. Do you know how you two got to where you are today?" Sanzang nodded indifferently. Head, just a little nod.

"Please ask the third master to clear up the confusion." After all, Yan Jiefang was a little more educated, and he was contaminated with the style of the old Yan family.

"I don't know the heights of the sky and the earth is thick, so I fiddled around, always thinking about speculation and taking shortcuts, never thinking about doing something honestly." Sanzang picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

"This...we..." Liu Guangtian was a little unconvinced, he just wanted to refute his neck, but then remembered that he was here to ask for help, and he was immediately discouraged.

Yan Jiefang was thoughtful after hearing this, and kept nodding his head in reflection.

"Liu Guangtian, are you unconvinced? I'll break up with you slowly. I won't say much about the bad things you two did when you were young. You know it yourself. Look at me in our courtyard. First Master, Third Master, Sha Zhu, Yan Jiecheng and even your brother Liu Guangqi,
At that time, everyone was honest, do you know why? Without waiting for Liu Guangtian to reply, Sanzang asked himself and answered, "That's because we all know that the heavens are tall and the earth is thick, how many catties and taels we weigh, and how many bowls of dry rice we can eat." "

"Then my dad has been tossing around for a while." Liu Guangtian muttered in a low voice.

"Can you compare with your father? He is capable, he is a seventh-level fitter, and he has enough food to eat at any time, and he gets off the boat early, otherwise your family will have a harder life." Sanzang shook his head. Liu Guangtian still didn't wake up.

"Third Master, you are right, we really don't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth." Yan Jiefang reflected quickly.

"It was actually a good opportunity for the two of you at the time when you just opened it, because you both have money, so you don't have to start from scratch like the people who came back from the country, and honestly sell some eggs, mushrooms, etc. from the country.

Peanuts and sunflower seeds are sold in the city, and it’s time to make a fortune. Even if you set up a rental book stand, or even bake a sweet potato to sell, you just don’t do it, thinking about reselling bills to take a shortcut ,
Xu Damao ate five cents of peanuts and you still haven't learned your lesson, and even went so far as to use old things to deceive foreigners. You never thought of doing serious things honestly. After Sanzang finished speaking, he slammed the teacup on the tea table heavily.

"That was Yan Jiekuang's idea, we were all tricked by him." Liu Guangtian muttered softly.

"Yes, the lesson is profound." Yan Jiefang kept nodding his head in agreement.

"You all want to learn business from me, but I won't teach you these opportunistic shortcuts, I will only teach you to work hard and make money honestly, do you still want to learn?" Sanzang glanced at Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang after finishing speaking. .

"I think, of course I think about it, we can learn one ten thousandth of your valuable experience, and we will never be able to use it in our lifetime." Yan Jiefang was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately expressed his opinion and flattered him.

"Me too." Liu Guangtian tried to pretend to be happy, but deep down in his heart he didn't take it seriously, he just wanted to take a shortcut and fight for the big one, and he turned over immediately.

"Okay, I'll give you the first lesson now, doing market research. It is said that without research, there is no right to speak. This is also the principle of our business." Sanzang raised his right index finger and said.

"Market research?" Yan Jiefang and Liu Guangtian asked with puzzled faces.

"That's right, you don't know what is needed in the market, how can you do business?" Sanzang took a sip from the teacup in front of him after speaking.

"Then how should we do this market research?" Yan Jiefang asked.

"Well, I happen to have one thing in my hand right now, and I still can't spare people to do it. If you two are willing to do it, I can entrust it to you two.

After finishing the work, you two will naturally know what market research is. Of course, I will also give you funds and remuneration. Sanzang thought for a while, and decided to give Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang a test.

"What are you doing?" Yan Jiefang asked enthusiastically.

Liu Guangtian also perked up and became a little interested.

"Hmm... go to Yuanxi County, Qinxi Province to do agricultural surveys." Sanzang remembered the agreement with his senior brother Guan Chenggen, and he promised to invest 100 million national currency to support him.
But this can't just be a blind vote, you have to understand the actual situation in the local area, although Guan Chenggen will also go to the field to investigate, but what he gets may not be true.

"Qinxi Province?! The Loess Plateau?! It's so far away." Liu Guangtian almost jumped when he heard that. He is also a junior high school graduate, and he still knows the basics of mountain and river geography.

"Third Lord, what should we do with this agricultural survey?" Yan Jiefang didn't care at all after hearing this. He was almost on the edge of the cliff at the moment.

His current debt is rising every day, and he is about to eat dirt, and now he regards this as the last straw.

Ignoring Liu Guangtian's surprise, Sanzang said gently to Yan Jiefang, "It's very simple, you go to every township in Yuanxi County to learn more about the local mountains, rivers, geography, water and soil, and crops."

"That's it, I'm afraid it will take a long time to finish the investigation." Yan Jiefang nodded to indicate that he understood, and then expressed his concerns.

"It's okay, don't worry, I'll give you two half a year, and it will be fine if the results come out within half a year." Sanzang gently put down the teacup in his hand, and raised Erlang's legs to make himself sit more comfortably.

"Then when are we going to leave?" Yan Jiefang's heart was gone, and he was not as sluggish as when he came here just now. He stood up and stretched his feet.

"Don't worry, you two go back and think calmly for one night, and then give me an answer tomorrow." Sanzang waved his hands and said gently.

"Then how much can you give the third master?" Liu Guangtian twirled his right thumb and index finger.

　thank you very much!
