The best Daming golden turtle son-in-law

Chapter 80 The capital is hot oh oh oh oh

There is only one or two hundred miles of official road from Qingquan to the capital. Everyone walked slowly the morning before, driving a carriage and staying in the middle of the night. When it was getting dark the next day, the outline of the capital became more and more clear. Appeared in front of my eyes.

As a modern person, Yang Ling has lived in Beijing for several years, and now he returns to the ancient capital as a traveler. It really feels like the vicissitudes of life, time has passed, as if time and space are in the form of a maelstrom. Flying in front of my eyes, and I am the subject of that contradiction——

Is this where I want to show off my talents?Does everyone who comes to Beijing think this way, and then devote themselves to unknown work?
The name of the city of Beijing has changed a lot. It was called Yandu in ancient times, and later Youzhou, the capital, was called Nanjing in the Liao Dynasty, and it was obviously called Beiping from the Hongwu period. It was named to record the achievements of calming the north. At that time, the fief Beiping was renamed Shuntian Mansion, and then Beijing City was built and the capital was moved here, and then it was called Jingshi until the Qing Dynasty.

The capital that Yang Ling and the others arrived at is the standard "inner nine outer seven imperial cities four", "nine gates, eight classics and one bell". When Yang Ling came, he felt that the green brick wall of Qingquan County had a moat A few very tall city walls are very magnificent, but when you get to the capital, look, oh!It is really "boundless and boundless joy"...

Yang Ling and the others flooded into the capital with the flow of people from the north and the south. It felt like a small fish in the river plunged into the sea at once, it was too big.

"Ah, Brother Ling'er, I've never seen so many good things, can I buy them?" The woman's eyes straightened first.

"I want to buy it too!" Then everyone did the same.

"Buy, buy, buy!"

"This this..."

"Monkey!"

"Sugar-coated haws!"

"Do you want soy milk? Authentic soy milk! Ten bucks a bowl!"

"That's the imperial city!"

This is hilarious!

Don't talk about following Yang Ling to Beijing this time, Jiang Zhuo, Liu Tiezui, Ma Binghuang and a group of beauties, these people feel novel, even the dozens of township soldiers who escorted Yang Ling's team are all on the same mind. The prosperity really makes people who have stayed in the small county for a long time feel that they have never seen anything, and they are too old-fashioned.

So one thought is to want to rush into this lively place right away, and to be willing to spend money to buy it, so that it doesn't seem so strange to the capital.

"Boss, give me ten drawers of buns from Beijing!"

Here are the top thoughts of these newcomers to town:

"I can count on eating steamed stuffed buns in the capital, and I have to drink hot water as soon as possible. After eating and drinking in this place, I can really be a native of the capital after many years of immersion, but then... why is the process so slow? ? Shall I roll a few more times on this ground, and then accept more of the 'earth' of the capital?"

"Everyone, stop running around!"

Jiang Zhuo is a talent in financial management and business. He has traveled to the capital a few times, so he has enough experience, so he is constantly explaining to everyone along the way. Now, the busiest and most prosperous place has arrived. , it was getting dark and said loudly:

"Listen to me, everyone, don't think that we are foreigners, have you seen that? In this capital city, our Tang Corporation has already bought a big restaurant in a prosperous area, and we will only let you in after it has been renovated. , that is our home, we are already from the capital, you know?"

"Wow!" Everyone was surprised to hear this, so they all exclaimed.

Some people knew a little bit about the inside story and knew that Young Master Tang was going to expand his business in the capital, but he really didn't expect to be able to buy a whole restaurant. It was such a big deal.

"Here, everyone, this is our new home."

"Wow..." The last "wow" lasted far less than this "wow", because everyone looked up, oh my god, what a grandeur!

Let’s talk about buying a certain shop in the capital, it’s really a big deal—silver, this is the capital where every inch of land is precious.

On the opposite side, there are rows of houses, and several tall restaurant buildings form the corners of each other. Not far away, there are jewelry buildings, silk shops, and pawn shops. There are several buildings opposite the big restaurant, and the momentum is also extraordinary. From what they all saw, the building of their house is considered a high-end decoration among this group of business facades. The three big characters, like phoenix dancing and dragon flying, are plaques written by famous calligraphers:

"Tianyi Building"!
Jiang Zhuo looked at Yang Ling, and then greeted the rest of the people: "How about it, is the face of this big restaurant pleasing to the eye? Let's stop staring outside, let's go in and rest first!"

A group of guys came out from inside, as well as people from the restaurant, who spoke a local accent, and came out to welcome Yang Ling and Jiang Zhuo.

"Hey, Lord Jiang, you are here! We have been waiting for you for a long time. When you arrive here, you will have a good meal tonight, and then have a good rest for the night. Let's go shopping in the capital tomorrow. This is under the eyes of the emperor. Let's get some dragon spirit!"

"It's easy to say, it's hard work to keep you waiting for a long time."

"Where are you talking! We came to clean the house in advance, everything is ready, just waiting for the east wind on the auspicious day of our Tianyi Building's opening. Let me tell you, the people we arrived first are looking forward to it every day and every night. , I’m looking forward to your coming! Have you checked, there are already several restaurants and inns open across the street, and they have taken away a lot of customers, and we are all anxious to death.”

"Oh?" Jiang Zhuo asked the rest of the people to go in slowly to wash the dust. He and Yang Ling stood outside and asked the elderly housekeeper Uncle Wang about the situation here.

"Steward Jiang, let me tell you. Did you see that one?" Uncle Wang pointed to the big restaurant diagonally across from Jewelry Building and Qianzhuang, the newest and most stylish restaurant. It was opened by the nephew of the Minister of the Ministry of War. On the day of the opening, the firecrackers were just for celebration, and they did not stop. They also invited officials from the yamen of various capitals to join in the show. Can't breathe!"

"Eat and drink for free? Then why don't you break the door, what business do they have with so much money?"

"The main thing is that they have power. Naturally, they also want to make money. He squeezes his peers first. Their advantage is that they have a background. The water in this capital is very deep."

"When you arrive in the capital, you don't know that you are an official, right?" Yang Ling suddenly remembered this sentence, which was passed down from generation to generation. not enough", etc.

But they didn't expect that Jiang Zhuo and that Uncle Wang were not surprised at what they said, on the contrary they all nodded as if they knew it a long time ago, and agreed.

"Look over there again," Old Uncle Wang said, pointing in another direction, "Steward Jiang Da, Steward Yang, look again, in that direction, diagonally opposite and a few steps ahead, is a restaurant run by a southern businessman." , Their characteristic is that they always imitate and suppress their competitors—they always have a lower price than others, and what others have, they will immediately launch any project!"

"Oh? That's fine too?"

Yang Ling's knowledge of business is actually not very proficient, it's quite novel to hear what Uncle Wang said.

"They're also the winners of Pingshu. There are several different storytellers who also talk about your "Swordsman". Do you think they are strong?"

"You can't learn so fast, can you? Our Qingquan is a hundred miles away from the capital. How did they do it?"

"Stealing, I heard that they sent several people to spend money to come to Qingquan to listen to books. After learning Liu Tiezui's books, if you change to a storyteller, fame will immediately become theirs!"

"They did this...too shameless, right? What about the promise of Jiang Hu's reputation?!" Jiang Zhuo cursed fiercely.

"Business is also life, and it's not easy to live. Brother Jiang, it seems that we are going to do a lot of work. This idea has not yet settled down, and it is already in crisis?"

"Although I have been in business longer than you, I admire your inspiration and talent. I will listen to you more in the future. Mr. Tang has entrusted you with this business. Now you are the chief shopkeeper and the head of the family. You Don't refuse any more, we must not disappoint Young Master Tang's investment, and don't embarrass the Qingquan people. Is that okay?"

"No problem, Brother Jiang, let's work hard together."

"I planned it this way. I will be in charge of the daily operation of the restaurant. I will take care of the chores such as hiring chefs and cooking, but every restaurant has to find a way to come up with a unique way to play its own signboard. This will work, and this is It depends on Yang Ling, you are mainly responsible for the creative aspects..."

"Yeah!" Yang Ling straightened up, "I promise to surprise you even more! Don't worry! I'm good in Qingquan, and I'm not mediocre in Beijing."

"expect!"

Uncle Wang said next to him: "Since your identities have been determined, I will hand over all of this place to you, and I have completed my task. By the way, I would like to mention one more thing, the big shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper, have you seen that small restaurant? I I also forgot that there was nothing in that small restaurant, but the people around were even more frightened when they heard about it.”

"They have nothing, so why compete?"

"They're local rogues who live by collecting protection money from other people's business, and beat anyone who doesn't like it!"

"Hiss, black society?"

Just as he was talking, Uncle Wang's face changed color:
"Hey, come here, it seems that someone in their building is coming towards us!"

Everyone saw that there were indeed a few shirtless men, painted colorfully, carrying sticks and long knives in their hands, and they really came straight to Tianyi Tower.

Uncle Wang was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he shouted, "Tell the guy to close the door quickly! Take a table and block the door!"

Yang Ling smiled: "Uncle Wang, we fought the Mongolian cavalry in Qingquan. We fought all the big battles. We saw a lot of dead people. Come on, they gangsters can still be afraid of him?"

"Yes! We have the powerful Ma Binghuang who can carry the tripod, and the 'Blue Enchantress' who makes any man fearful. Open the door and let them see and see."

"It's exciting to watch when we first came here. We can't break the backstage and plagiarism for the time being, but we can still be afraid of a bunch of gangsters? Then we just go back the same way. Damn it!"
