"I am different from what you ask for, how can I compare to it?"

Director Wu was drinking a slutty wine and looked unhappy.

Qian Wen didn't mind his attitude, but instead smiled, "Although we ask for different things, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than the four words of wine, sex, wealth and energy. I, known as Fatty Qian, am a commoner. When I come to the world, I just want to ask for "wealth". Pingyang County can add icing on the cake, and I am happy to stay here.

What Master Xiao Wu asked for, I dared to guess, and I guess it was to ask for a 'qi'. The energy of the world, the energy of mountains and rivers, the energy of the world, and the energy of everyone... Pingyang County is very popular. Why did Master Xiao Wu still dislike it? Can you tell me what tricks Mrs. Yan used to keep Master Wu?"

Director Wu looked at him, "I really want to know what trick Mrs. Yan used?"

Qian Wen nodded repeatedly.

Want to know!

Want to know so much!

Director Wu did not hide it from him, "Mrs. Yan promised to build a Taoist temple in Pingyang County, and beg my father to be the master of the Taoist temple. The so-called strategy is an open plot. She asked my father to choose a site for the Taoist temple to be built. How could my father withstand this trick? Alas... I regret it! If I had known that I had left from the beginning, there would be no trouble."

Bang!

Qian Wen patted his thighs and made a loud noise, which made Director Wu frightened.

"What are you doing?"

Qian Wen smiled, his eyes flashed with light, he saw money!

He said excitedly: "Mrs. Yan treats Master Wu with such deep affection and friendship, which is really enviable. In order to keep Master Wu, he spared no expense to build a Taoist temple. Is this a thousand yuan to buy horse bones and treat people like a national hero?"

Director Wu glanced at him, "That's not what you said."

Qian Wen said, "Don't criticize my words, I'll ask you, in the past few decades, has anyone ever tried his best to keep Master Wu and promised to build a Taoist temple? Is there any? There is definitely no. If you father and son have a fixed Taoist temple, they will not be able to travel outside all year round."

This time, Director Wu rolled his eyes directly, "If you don't understand our ideas, don't speculate on our words and deeds without authorization."

Qian Wen smiled, "Although I don't understand, I also know that you father and son are seeking the Tao. What is Tao? No matter what Tao is, there must be a temple to preach your Tao. After walking so many places, traveling from south to north, eating ashes and drinking wind, have you found a temple to preach Taoism?"

Director Wu was embarrassed now and had no words to refute.

Qian Wen looked proud, "Look, I'm right! As a Taoist priest, I also need a place to facilitate business, right? Mrs. Yan treats her as a national sage. I really don't know why you are always dissatisfied."

Director Wu pondered his thoughts, "It's not that he is not dissatisfied, but that he feels very unhappy when he is led by someone."

"Okay, I know the knot in your heart. You just don't want anyone to be your master. It seems that you have been used to being the master of your own since childhood and cannot stand being merciless."

"Can you accept being merciless?"

"If Mrs. Yan treats me as a national sage, I can follow her mercy. I will never stand. I will ask me to kneel down, and I will never sit..."

Tsk tsk...

Director Wu looked at him with a look of insolent attitude and said that the fat man in the businessman was indeed unconventional.

Can you get some face?

Qian Wen looked regretful, "It's a pity that Mrs. Yan looks down on a small person like us. If I were the ability of Master Wu, no, as long as I have half of my ability, I can wake up with laughter in my dreams."

Director Wu Taotao's ears were so flattering that he could hardly listen.

He asked Qian Wen, "In your eyes, what kind of person is Mrs. Yan? Is it worthy of your admiration?"

Qian Wen lowered his voice and whispered: "To be honest, everyone was actually a little worried before. Think about it, we paid for our own money to build a project for Mrs. Yan, and we couldn't make a profit by a penny, and we had to pay a lot of manpower, financial and material resources.

Especially, the merchants who contracted to build dams and clear the rivers would cost hundreds of thousands of guan. All the money was invested in Pingyang County. After more than half a year, we were panicked!

But do you know why people are in high spirits recently? Do you know why someone has decided to continue to invest additionally and continue to run the business here?"

"Why?"

"Because of salt! You also know that there is no salt mine in Pingyang County. Everyone was worried before. Mrs. Yan promised a salt monopoly. Where did the salt come from? You can't buy it from the aristocratic family and then resell it to everyone. In that case, the business cannot continue."

"Yes, there is no salt mine, where can we start with the salt monopoly?" Director Wu also had a hundred thousand whys.

Qian Wen smiled mysteriously, "No one expected that just a few days ago, two hundred dans of salt were added in the city and sold to the big merchants who built the dam at a low price. I heard that before the end of the year, hundreds of dans of salt were sent. This year is the first year, and the output is a bit low. But by next year, the goods will definitely be available. Master Xiao Wu, do you know where this batch of salt comes from?"

Director Wu shook his head repeatedly, how could he know?

He was confused.

But he was happy to ask, "Do you know where Mrs. Yan's salt comes from?"

Qian Wen didn't keep it a secret, "Not only do I know, but friends in the business circle in the city have spread all over the place. Everyone tasted the taste, and some people who know how to do it said that the salt comes from the beach. Mrs. Yan supplies sea salt.

Hahaha... you didn't expect that Mrs. Yan didn't need a salt mine at all. As long as there was a sea, there would be inexhaustible salt. Before this, no one expected that Mrs. Yan had mastered the method of boiling sea salt.

Moreover, the sea salt cooked is snow-white and has no impurities. It is top-notch salt, which is better than all the salt sold on the market. Haha... I posted it, I posted it! People in the business circle are now talking about it.

The merchants who contracted the construction of dams made a fortune this time. They invested a lot and invested hundreds of thousands of guan at once, but the income was also frighteningly high. With a steady supply of salt, hundreds of thousands of guan would be earned back in two or three years.

Alas, it’s a pity that I don’t have that much capital. If I have the capital, I will invest hundreds of thousands of chunks of money and can also interfere with salt trading. These days, many small merchants like me have wandered around those big merchants every day, hoping to get the distribution rights from them.”

Director Wu was stunned, "You mean, Mrs. Yan has solved the salt supply?"

"Yes! Not only does it solve the supply of salt, but it also needs as much as it needs."

"Pingyang County is not in the sea, aren't you worried? Are you afraid that other salt merchants from aristocratic families will rob goods and retaliate?"

Qian Wen waved his hands repeatedly, looking confident, "Not afraid! With the governor of Xiao County, he is strong and powerful, whoever dares to destroy the salt fields on the beach will fight. At worst, both sides can fight a war and re-divid the territory. And the river has been cleared, and now he can take a boat to reach the beach directly, which is very fast.

As for the robbery you are worried about, people who dare to get involved in salt monopoly, without a backing background, without a private military gang of hundreds or thousands of people, and without the ability to play both black and white, how can you get involved in this business casually? Master Xiao Wu, don’t worry about others. We who do business know how much we can and what businesses can and cannot get involved.”

"How dare you get involved in the paper printing business? Are you not afraid of aristocratic families taking revenge on you? Those big families dare not provoke Mrs. Yan, but it is still more than enough to deal with you."

Qian Wen looked so embarrassed!

He coughed lightly and said, "So, I only participate in the workshop, hiding behind my back and taking dividends. I do not participate in distribution and trading. The transactions are all operated by the North and South Commercial Banks under Mrs. Yan's name. If I don't ask, others will not know that I have a shareholding."

When Director Wu heard this, he laughed, "It seems that you are afraid too."

Qian Wen admitted generously, "I am a businessman, not an official, nor a title to protect me, so I will naturally be afraid."

Director Wu smiled, "I understand. The reason why you admire Mrs. Yan so much is because she can make money."

Qian Wen shook his head. At this moment, he felt that he had reached the peak of his life.

At least my mood has reached its peak.

He laughed and said, "It's not only that we can make money, but more importantly, Mrs. Yan keeps her promise. You don't have to worry about accidents or repentances halfway through. You see, the most difficult salt has been solved. Will other goods be more difficult than salt?

So, you can stay in Pingyang County with confidence. Mrs. Yan personally promised to build a Taoist temple for Master Wu. This is a matter of foregone conclusion and will definitely not be able to escape. By next year, Master Wu will have a Taoist temple, which can open a cauldron, preach Taoist Dharma, and receive letters from men and women. I, old money, wish the Taoist temple a great incense in advance and everyone will ascend to heaven."

The incense is very popular, and it is still a normal blessing.

Everyone attains enlightenment and ascends to heaven, is it a mess?

Director Wu did not correct his words, but just kept drinking.

Qian Wen sang a small song, which shows that he was in a good mood.

Get rich, get rich...

Everyone is coming to Pingyang County to make a fortune!

He said proudly: "When the academy starts recruiting students, I will also have a contribution from Lao Qian. In the future, I will find someone to do business in the yamen. You don't know that Pingyang County is eager to seek talented people, and even a scholar wants it, he doesn't care about the smell of fragrance.

I have recommended several scholars to Magistrate Ji County. I don’t know if Magistrate Ji County has the ability to fool people into Pingyang County and share his worries. Alas, I’m worried about Magistrate Ji County.”

Director Wu was stunned for a moment before remembering who the county magistrate Ji was mentioned by Qian Wen.

"What you are talking about is the man who was born in Zhuang Ding, promoted by Mrs. Yan, from the shopkeeper to the manager, and from the manager to the county magistrate, Ji Ping?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's Jipingji County Magistrate. He is a role model for many people!"

"He is just an exception, an exception that cannot be copied. Use him as a role model and be careful to delay his future."
