Chapter 229 Talking about marriage

Yiwu is so old, and the atmosphere in the private room where Pan Xiao'an and others are in has become more enthusiastic.

The matchmaker, Madam Gao, talked freely and explained the various advantages of Wu Haogu one by one. Not to mention, this matchmaker Gao was really good at talking, and he was so full of hype that he almost praised Wu Haogu.

However, what she said was basically true in Wu Haogu's opinion. His current conditions are not to mention the Song Dynasty, even in the future generations, he is a very popular rich man! He is a rich and official generation!

His Christie's is now in the Song Dynasty. No, it is the largest auction house in the world, and it will soon become the world's largest publisher and paper media. It is now the eleventh century, and most parts of the world don't even have paper! So the Christie's in Wuhaogu can probably compare with later Internet giants. How can the valuation be many "small goals"?

Moreover, the Christie's in Wuhaogu also has extremely strong profitability, and it achieved a net profit of more than 10,000 yuan in the year of its opening! The net profit of Yuanfu in two years is conservatively estimated to be able to exceed 200,000 yuan!

It is too easy for Christie's to make money now. It only takes two months to organize calligraphy, painting, art, entertainment and singing, and release one issue of the "Courtess" album in a month. You can make 200,000 yuan in lie down. This profit has not yet been taken into account the market of the "Courtess" album outside Kaifeng Prefecture, nor has it been considered to further explore the advertising value of the "Courtess" album. It can be said that it is quite conservative!

Having such profitability means that according to the conservative price-to-earnings ratio valuation, Wu Haogu also has a net worth of millions.

In addition, Wu Haogu has now become an official, and is a dignified ninth-rank military officer of the Song Dynasty. Although he is only a sesame official, Wu Haogu is only 21 years old this year! He has not graduated from college at his later age, but Wu Haogu is already an official, and he is an official in the court... His future is very good!

If the Pan family doesn’t want such a good husband, then some wealthy families want to marry their daughter to Wu Haogu!

After Gao Madam praised Wu Haogu, Tong Guan told everyone two inside information: First, Empress Dowager Xiang has decided to choose His Highness Duan’s princess, the talented daughter of the Sanhuai Wang family and the daughter of Wang Zao, the governor of Dezhou. Moreover, the date of the wedding has been set, which is the sixth day of the sixth month of the second year of Yuanfu.

The second is that when Empress Dowager Xiang saw "Pan Su'er's Smile", she immediately fell in love with the cute little girl Pan Su'er, and decided to marry her to Zhao Wei, the 14th son of the late emperor.

When he heard the second news, Pan Xiao'an secretly felt fortunately, but fortunately he did not completely turn against Wu Haogu.

Because the marriage between the royal family and the general also emphasizes the equal share of rain and dew, there is no reason why the prince of the same generation wins two princesses from a family of generals. If Empress Dowager Xiang fell in love with Pan Su'er from the beginning, then Pan Qiaolian would never marry Prince Duan anyway...

In addition to King Duan, Wu Haogu is really the most famous golden son-in-law in Kaifeng Prefecture. If the Pan family really doesn't want it... maybe Cai Jing will pick it up. Some of the Cai family in Xinghua are yellow-haired girls who are waiting to be named.

"Miss Gao said very much. Wu Dalang and my eighteenth sister are indeed childhood sweethearts.

The requirements I made before were indeed a bit high. It’s not that Dalang can’t be an ambassador, but that he is not young anymore. He is eighteen years old this year, and he will be an old girl after waiting for two years. I don’t think so. After Dalang returns to Kaifeng Mansion, he will marry his eighteenth sister.”

As he spoke, Pan Xiao'an smiled and looked at Wu Chengzhi's eyes.

"Brother Xiang Dao, what do you think?"

"Okay, when Dalang comes back, I will find an auspicious day to marry the eighteenth sister."

Although the wedding banquet was discussed at today's banquet, the marriage between Wu Haogu and Pan Qiaolian was discussed, but they had no say in marriage, so their parents were the decision!

Wu Dalang's father was Wu Chengzhi, and Pan Qiaolian's father had passed away, so the elder brother was the father, and Pan Xiao'an was the one who decided to do so.

Wu Dalang could only listen, but Pan Qiaolian was not allowed to listen. Because she and Wu Dalang were not in the same private room. At today's banquet, the female family members included special private room elegant seats, Pan Qiaolian and Feng Erniang, Pan Xiao'an's eldest wife Zhao, Li Qingzhao, who had become Pan Qiaolian's best friend, and Mo Niangzi, Du Wenyu, and Pan Ying'er were all sitting in the same private room.

The little girl Jin Ping'er was squatting outside the private room where Wu Dalang was, pricking her ears and listening carefully to what she said...

"Xiangdao, we all listen to Madam Gao's affairs in the three books and six rituals." Pan Xiao'an curled his smile at this time and his expression became serious. "I will discuss how much dowry today."

This... Wu Haogu actually doesn't matter!

He no longer cares about money, he cares about people! Pan Qiaolian, Ximen Qing, Du Wenyu, Pan Ying'er, Jin Ping'er, Mo Niangzi... He cares a lot!

However, he still respects Pan Qiaolian very much. He cannot take a concubine first and then marry a wife, nor can he take a concubine without Pan Qiaolian's consent... If Pan Qiaolian disagrees, he can only buy a few outdoor rooms.

So marrying Pan Qiaolian is the beginning of a better life in the future!

"You can just say as much as you say." Wu Chengzhi also had an indifferent attitude, because he knew that Pan Xiao'an and Pan Qiaolian had a deep affection and would never treat their sister unfairly.

Pan Xiao'an said, "Then I'll just say a number and give it 300,000 yuan!"

As soon as this number was released, the people sitting there could not help but take a breath except Wu Haogu. This Grand Official Pan is really rich, and he can give so many dowry to marry a girl.

Official Pan glanced at Wu Haogu and said, "Zhiba still has some private houses, which is not counted among these 300,000 yuan... These 300,000 yuan are not all cash. There are real estate and land. Last time, Shiba told me that you want to live with her in Haizhou for a long time, so the village in Haizhou and more than 10,000 acres of land are considered as dowry.

There is also a village in the west of Kaifeng Prefecture City, right next to Qionglin Garden. It is not big. Even the house and the surrounding land are 500 acres, which is considered as a dowry."

The two real estate he mentioned were excellent, not the kind of dilapidated house, but the well-maintained property. The two places combined, they look about 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.

"In addition, there are more than a dozen houses and shops in Kaifeng Prefecture. In addition to Xiao Panyuan, you can also choose one for about 100,000 yuan to be a dowry for 18. In this way, 170,000 yuan will be enough, and the rest will be given to cash."

The huge amount of 300,000 yuan was simply an understatement to Pan Xiao'an, and it was not too excited to Wu Haogu. One was the "banker" in the eleventh century and the other was the "Internet giant" in the Song Dynasty. They were both the kind of people who didn't care about money. For both of them, 300,000 yuan was just a medium meaning.

These two families are really a match!

"Brother Eleven, can I ask for the large warehouse on Fengqiumen Street in the north wing of the city?"

At this time, Wu Haogu suddenly made a statement and proposed to want a real estate in the north wing of the city.

"Big warehouse?" Pan Xiao'an thought for a while, "that old rice warehouse in Fengqiu Gate?"

The place Wu Haogu wanted was originally a rice warehouse, not a private property of Pan Xiao'an, but the property of the Pan family's gold, silver, silk and silk shop was a debt-based asset. It originally belonged to a gang merchant (a merchant who ran for transportation). Because of poor management, it broke the bank and left the warehouse to the Pan family shop.

However, the area in the north wing of Kaifeng Prefecture is not very good, especially the area close to Fengqiu Gate, where there are either barracks or warehouses. The business is not very prosperous and there is no luxury house market. It is not easy for such a large rice warehouse to take action, so it was rented out to several rice merchants, but in fact it could not receive a few rents, because many merchants now buy land and build warehouses and handicraft workshops in the river outside Kaifeng Prefecture.

"Yes, it's that old Yone Cang." Wu Haogu said with a smile, "Can you give Shiba a dowry?"

"Yes." Pan Xiao'an asked, "Dalang, do you want to set up a printing factory there?"

Now the printing and binding of the "Courtessy" album is outsourced, but that is not a long-term solution. As the scale of album distribution increases, Christie's must have its own printing factory.

"The seal factory has selected a territory," Wu Haogu said to Pan Xiao'an with a smile, "It is planned to be built in Chenliu County, southeast of Kaifeng Prefecture."

Chenliu County is one of the five prefectures and forty-two counties under Kaifeng Prefecture. It is a large county. It is located on the bank of the Bian River (canal). It has very convenient transportation and a large population. It is not far from Kaifeng Prefecture, and the land price is much cheaper than Kaifeng Prefecture. With an investment of thousands to ten thousand yuan, a large handicraft factory can be built there.

In addition to Chenliu's factory, Wu Haogu also plans to establish a "division" in Haizhou to print and distribute comic strips, New Year pictures, Buddhist Taoist portraits, and various books.

"If you don't run a factory, what's the use of that rice warehouse?" Pan Xiao'an was a little confused.

Wu Haogu smiled and said, "You can start a house business."

"House...real estate?" Pan Xiao'an frowned and asked, "How much does the property in Fengqiu Gate cost? Rich people don't live there?"

The rich people in Kaifeng Prefecture all live in the west of the city. In the north of the city, they used to be barracks, but they are not very prosperous now. It is not that there is no real estate demand, but that they lack purchasing power. They cannot afford the small buildings with unique houses, and apartment-style residences did not exist in the Song Dynasty.

"You can try it." Wu Haogu said thinking, "I want to build a new type of housing, which is a building that can be sold separately."

Of course, new-style housing is a three-story building with two households, each with independent kitchen and drainage facilities. However, there is no design of tap water, so water can only be supplied with public wells and sinks. Residents living on the third floor have to be a little tired and fetch water up and down.
