Daming talker

Chapter 239 Career, Prestige and Love
Lu Junbi listened for a while, but didn't understand what Wang Yuanwai meant, so he asked bluntly, "How do Yuanwai want to treat him?"

Wang Yuanwai only said four words: "It's a rare place to live."

Lu Junbi understood immediately. Although he felt that "Friend Wang" was full of danger and was a little scared, Wang Yuanwai was not afraid of trouble, and there was nothing Lu Xiucai could do about it.

"How should the member behave?" Lu Junbi asked again.

Wang Yuanwai replied very confidently: "For a young man, especially a scholar, as long as you give him three things, career, prestige, and love, he will definitely be impressed!"

After Lu Junbi was stunned for a moment, after savoring it carefully, he felt that these "three things" were too reasonable.

He also had to admit that Wang Yuanwai had a strong insight into and control over human nature.

After leaving Wang's house, it was getting close to evening, and Lu Junbi went to visit "Friend Wang" again.

When Lin Tailai saw Lu Junbi, he said, "Brother Lu, it's a coincidence that I'm here. I was just about to say goodbye to you!"

Lu Junbi was surprised, "Are you leaving now?"

Lin Tailai replied: "I came to Yangzhou mainly to deal with the great master. Now that the matter has been completed, it is time to say goodbye."

Of course Lin Daguanren didn't really want to leave Yangzhou, he at least wanted to finish the exam here.

It was just that in order to avoid "snatching the snake" and not exposing his identity, he casually called himself "Wang Yusheng".

But it was too awkward to keep communicating with others under Wang Yusheng's name, so I simply pretended to have left.

Anyway, he took part in the academic examination to admit scholars, and Lu Junbi took part in the scientific test to improve his level, so the two of them should not meet each other.

In addition, five hundred men are coming soon. Of course, it is better to be with them.

After Lu Junbi thought for a while, he said: "Even if it is a farewell, there should be a farewell ceremony. I will entertain my friend Wang tomorrow, so please be sure to show your respect."

After the two agreed, they separated, and Lu Junbi quickly went back to prepare.

The next day, Lu Junbi came to greet Lin Tailai again, and then led Lin Tai to the Taiping Bridge in the city.

Then he walked into a garden that was not too small. Lin Tailai asked, "Where is this?"

Lu Junbi replied: "This is called Yinyuan, it was built by the salt merchant Wang's, and it covers an area of ​​about fifteen acres.

I am somewhat related to the Wang family, so I will borrow the Yin Yuan to entertain my friend Wang today. "

Since the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty, Yangzhou, which has become redeveloped, has been imitating Suzhou in all aspects, and the custom of gardening has also been copied.

Lin Daguan thought for a while and found that later generations did not have any impression of the hidden garden near Taiping Bridge. Most of the most famous gardens in Yangzhou were produced in the Qing Dynasty.

But this is normal. After hundreds of years of personnel changes, many former scenic spots have been completely lost in the long river of history.

Not every scenic spot can retain its name and location hundreds of years later like the Lingering Garden and Humble Administrator's Garden in Suzhou.

Not long after Lu Junbi and Lin Tailai took their seats in the pavilion under the rockery in Yin Yuan, suddenly another middle-aged man with a Dongpo hat on his head and well-dressed waist walked in.

Lu Junbi pretended to be surprised and said, "How come Mr. Wang is here?"

He quickly introduced Lin Tailai and said, "This is the Wang Yuanwai I mentioned. She is a Qing. She makes a living in the salt industry and is also the owner of Yinyuan."

Wang Yuanwai smiled and said to Lin Tai: "Lu Sheng has never asked me to borrow a garden to entertain guests, but today I made an exception.

This made me curious, wondering what kind of distinguished guest was coming.Therefore, I came here uninvited, and I hope that Wang Sheng will not blame me! "

What else can Mr. Lin say?Don't reach out and hit the smiling man. He is not a mad dog who bites everyone he sees.

Besides, thinking of Wang Yuanwai's identity, Lin Tailai was suddenly very interested in chatting with Wang Yuanwai.

If you want to plant a flag in Yangzhou, you must understand the salt industry.But the salt industry is a highly professional industry, and many industry insiders are known only to those involved.

Moreover, Lin Tailai was also thinking about whether to get some nests and plant a flag in Yangzhou City as a salt merchant first.

There are two advantages to doing this. First, hundreds of years of historical experience show that under the Gangsalt System, the Lianghuai Salt Industry was one of the most profitable industries.

Moreover, Lianghuai Salt Industry is just beginning to "explode" now, and it will become more and more profitable in the future. Since it is standing on this trend, why not take a share of the opportunity?

Second, salt merchants have a special status in Yangzhou City. Entering Yangzhou as a salt merchant brings with it its own aura, which makes it easier to gain recognition and reduce the difficulty of starting a business.

Another point is that his brother is currently the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the governor of Taicang, and has a strong say in the Ministry of Revenue.

On the macro level, salt industry affairs are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Household Affairs, so this may be an opportunity.

After Member Wang also sat down, he began to greet the maids to serve wine and food.

At the same time, he smiled at Lin Tailai and said: "This place is really a bit cramped, so I won't wait for the distinguished guests.

After all, this hidden garden was built by me in practice, and it is cramped in the city, so it is really not big.

When I find a good place among the mountains and rivers outside the city, I will build another garden. Then I will ask Wang Shengduo to come and give me advice. "

Lin Tailai thought of the Canglang Pavilion he had planned, and nodded with deep feeling:

"Fifteen acres is indeed a bit small, even if it is used for practicing. If I want to garden, I will start with at least twenty or thirty acres."

Wang Yuanwai: "."

Damn it!It was obvious that he wanted to go to Versailles first and create an aura to get the upper hand, but why was it reflected back?

Feeling that the talk about the garden could not go on, Wang Yuanwai changed the subject calmly, and asked again: "Listen to Lu Sheng, Wang Sheng, do you intend to establish a business in Yangzhou City?" Lin Tailai replied: "Indeed, I do. But I don’t have much clue right now.

Probably can only bring people over to have a look first, familiarize themselves with the situation of Yangzhou City, and wait until the time is more mature in the future before starting. "

Wang Yuanwai pointed out: "With Wang Sheng's family background and talents, other trivial matters are meaningless.

Therefore, we must start with the salt industry. Only by establishing a foothold in the salt industry can we start a business in Yangzhou. "

Lin Tailai took advantage of the situation and said: "If you want to start in the salt industry, how should you do it?"

"Hehehehe." Mr. Wang smiled again. He was not afraid that you would be interested, but that he was not.

Lu Junbi, who didn't interrupt for a long time, thought, is this what outsiders call "career"?
But it’s normal. Today’s world is so extravagant and all kinds of consumption are getting higher and higher. Who among young people doesn’t want to make money and get rich?
As long as friend Wang asks the question "how to enter the salt industry", it means that he has already begun to take the bait.

Is there any more convenient way than becoming the son-in-law of a big salt merchant?
But Wang Yuanwai did not continue to brag about how the salt industry made money, but began to emphasize the difficulties.

“Today, it is more difficult to enter the salt industry than before. Obtaining the foundation first is the biggest problem.

The government has a root register, and the list of all nest owners and merchants is registered in it and cannot be changed at will.

The nest capital is linked to production and cannot be distributed without limit, so it is difficult to increase it.

In this case, no one will transfer the ownership, so it is becoming increasingly difficult for the salt industry to recruit new people. "

Lin Tailai felt that this nest was equivalent to a license plate or license. Thinking of a similar situation in his previous life, he casually said: "If you can't get a nest, you can rent it."

Wang Yuanwai said in confusion: "Rent? What's the rent method?"

Lin Tailai explained: "For example, if you have a nest of [-] yuan, you can rent it to me.

I am responsible for the sales of these [-] yuan of salt every year. You don’t need to go to the sales area to sell salt.

In this way, you only need to sit at home easily and collect the rent every year.

Wouldn't it be beautiful to save the trouble of traveling far and wide, greatly reduce labor costs, and avoid the risk of slow sales? "

Wang Yuanwai: "."

This sounds really exciting.

No, it shouldn’t be my heartbeat today!Wang Yuanwai quickly tightened his mind and said again:

"Each of our salt merchants has its own salt sales area. These areas are good and bad. If they don't have enough strength, they won't be able to occupy the good salt areas."

Lin Tailai asked in surprise, "What's so difficult about finding a sales area? What do you think of Suzhou?"

Wang Yuanwai felt that he did not need to answer this question at all.

Suzhou is the most prosperous and wealthy place in the world, with an extremely dense population and rich people. It is close to Yangzhou and has convenient transportation.

It can be said that for Huainan Salt Industry, Suzhou is the best sales area, bar none.

Doesn't Wang Yuanwai not want to go to Suzhou to sell salt?It's just that various circumstances don't allow it.

Thinking of this, Wang Yuanwai sighed and said: "Salting salt is not that simple. There are many rules and tricks in it.

Take Suzhou as an example. First, it is currently Zheng Zhiyan’s sales area. If you want to sell salt in Suzhou, you will have to break up with Zheng Zhiyan.

Second, Suzhou is too close to Zhejiang, so a lot of Zhejiang salt will be smuggled into Suzhou and impact the Huai salt market. "

Lin Daguan said nonchalantly: "These are not problems, it is a trivial matter!"

Hearing this, Wang Yuanwai felt that "Wang Sheng" was a bit young and energetic, and your son didn't know that the world was going to be difficult.

So Wang Yuanwai emphasized: "The third and most important point is that if you want to seize other people's salt areas, you must have the support of local forces!
The political forces I am talking about refer to community halls, industry offices, inspection departments, etc. below the government level.

Although your Wang family in Dongshan is rich and has no problems with the transportation officials, it may not be able to control such grassroots forces on the ground.

So, you may be oversimplifying things. "

Lin Tailai: "."

Sitting in front of you, Wang Yuanwai, is the seat of the New News Society, the actual talker in each hall of the New Wulian, the tax collector of the nine towns in Wuxian County, the guardian of the Xujiang River, the protector of the Taihu boat owners, and the branch of Mudu Port. The chief official of Guan, the boss of the two engineering teams, and the chief controller of Nanhao Market Management Office.

So, Wang Yuanwai, who are you saying is not powerful in the political arena in Suzhou City?

Official Lin almost revealed his identity, but he still held back and said:

"All Jianghu problems are not a problem for me! Mr. Wang, what other problems do you have?"

Wang Yuanwai was stunned for a moment, "If these are not problems, then there will be no problem."

If we can solve all the above problems and dominate the sales area in Suzhou, we can wake up from our dreams with laughter.

Lin Daguan laughed "haha" and said, "Wang Yuanwai, can you consider renting the nest to me?"

Wang Yuanwai: "."

This atmosphere is wrong!Aren’t you using your career to deceive young people?Why are you talking about becoming a young man and fooling yourself?

　It's a big text, I think it's ugly, so I revised it over and over again until I post it now. This chapter was from yesterday, so it doesn't count as a make-up.I will try again today to see how much I can write.
