Chapter 153
Chapter 153
Brother Jiu is in a better mood. Recently, Fujin Jiu is really gentle.
Ever since the emperor sealed up Brother Jiu's shop, he was like a beast in a cage, restless and furious, but helpless.
Brother Jiu is not interested in the affairs of the court, and the person he admires the most since he was a child is Brother Ba.He and the eighth elder brother grew up together and have a deep relationship. The eighth elder brother has great ambitions, so of course he will do his best to help.
He took great pains to open these shops with the help of Eighth Prince's connections.After earning money, he allocated part of it to Brother Ba to develop contacts, and then use these connections to make his business more prosperous.
The emperor made a decree, years of painstaking efforts were wasted, how could Brother Jiu not be in a hurry?
What's more, it's not just a business problem. With no income, the eighth elder brother was locked up again. What do they use to plan for the future?
This time Jiufujin came back from Wufujin's banquet in a hurry, probably because he was stimulated and proposed to do business.
You must know that Jiu Fujin was not interested in these things at all before, and also had a lot of complaints about Brother Jiu's business.
Now that Jiu Fujin has changed his mind, Brother Jiu is happy to see it succeed.Isn't it his money that Jiufujin made money?His shop is closed, but he can open a new one.
The emperor is always very tolerant towards his daughter-in-law, so Jiufujin will not be banned for doing business.The emperor has Zhang Liang's plan. He has a ladder to pass the wall. When he comes out in the future, he will always find a chance to stand up.
Brother Jiu generously funded the start-up funds, and even introduced his trustworthy subordinates to Fujin Jiu. As long as he listens to these people, he will basically not lose money.
Jiufujin is willing to accept money, but he doesn't want people from Brother Jiu.If you listen to them in everything, how can the shop lose money?
Jiu Fujin said: "Hey, forget it! I don't want your money anymore!"
Brother Jiu didn't understand, "Why?"
"Fourth sister-in-law and fifth sister-in-law rely on themselves for everything in business. Am I worse than them? If your people help me arrange things properly, then I won't be doing business. I'd better use my own money! My dowry money is enough I wasted it."
Brother Jiu sighed, "You want those useless strongmen! Do you think doing business is so simple? Be careful that you lose all your money!"
Jiufujin frowned slightly, "You look down on me..."
After finishing speaking, Jiufujin turned around and left.
Ninth elder brother hurriedly took her hand, "Forget it, you will never learn well if you don't suffer. With my family background, I won't let you lose all your money. Keep your dowry for the children! "
Brother Nine took out a box containing bank notes.
"You can use it. If it's not enough or if you lose it, you don't care what I want. Don't make too much noise in your business. It's best not to let people know. When the emperor releases me, I will make the business bigger with you!"
Jiufujin turned from anger to joy, and said a lot of good things to Brother Jiu.She thought to herself, it seems that I will lose money sooner, and brother Jiu will be released later.
With the money cheated, Jiufujin quickly redecorated his shop, bought some silk and satin fabrics at random, and opened a silk and satin shop.
Jiufujin invited Shuwan and Wufujin to come to the silk and satin village to talk, and when Shuwan entered the silk and satin village, she first frowned.When Wu Fujin arrived, his first reaction was to frown.
The three sisters-in-law retreated to the left and right, and Jiufujin smiled first: "It's more convenient to talk here, except that the shop is my dowry, other people don't know that this shop has something to do with me."
Wu Fujin spoke bluntly, "Ninth Brother and Sister, your silk and satin shop is not very good. If people know that you have opened such a shop, I'm afraid they will laugh at you for being taken advantage of."
Wu Fujin pointed to the downstairs and said, "You have seen good things too. What are you putting on the shelves below? The poor can't afford such materials, and the rich are unwilling to buy them. Although they are defective goods , you arrange it well, if it’s cheaper, there are people who are willing to buy it. You’re good, no matter the color or pattern, they’re all piled up together, how do you choose when the guests come?”
At this time, Wu Fujin had regretted it a bit, and she felt that Jiu Fujin might not be suitable for business.
Shuwan patted Wu Fujin to make her calm down.
Facing Wu Fujin's accusation, Jiu Fujin was not annoyed.
She smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, listen to me first, I left in a hurry that day, what do you think I did? I want money!
Brother Jiu paid for my shop, and I will be the boss.I also bought these defective goods at my own discretion. It didn't cost much money to buy these goods, but there is more than that written on my account! "
Shuwan suddenly realized, "You're cheating on Brother Jiu's money!"
Jiu Fujin smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't speak so harshly, we are husband and wife, I am just not good at management, how can it be as serious as stealing money?
I am willing to do business with my sisters-in-law. If you recruit me into the business, I won't get any money, and I am embarrassed to ask for a dividend.Now Brother Nine supports me, so we can talk about dividends. "
Shuwan cheered and applauded Jiufu Jin in her heart, she is really a heroine in the middle school, she cheats people without blinking an eye, and even calls it "support", it's really amazing!
Wu Fujin said: "I discussed it with Shuwan. In the business, there is [-]% bonus for the emperor, [-]% for each of us, [-]% for each of us, and [-]% for the shopkeepers who worked hard during the year. My brothers and sisters think how?"
Jiu Fujin lowered his head and thought for a while, "This sounds fair, but it's not fair when you think about it carefully. The sister-in-laws invested a lot of money, and they lost a lot of energy before. I took the same share as the sister-in-laws, which is not good. .”
Shuwan smiled and said: "Let's not count so closely between sisters-in-law. How much you invest is nothing. When the business starts, we have a clear division of labor and make money together."
Wu Fujin also felt that this was the case, Jiu Fujin thought to himself, the two sister-in-laws took care of her, and she seemed ignorant if she refused to accept this kindness.Now that I have accepted the kindness, there will always be a time to repay it in the future. The matter is too clearly divided, but I have a relationship with my sister-in-law.
Jiufujin didn't worry about how much to divide, the three of them discussed their respective responsibilities in the future, so that the division of labor was clear.
Finally, Jiufujin took out several thick stacks of ledgers.
"This is Brother Jiu's account book when he was doing business. There are detailed records in it. In addition, I also have an essay written by Brother Jiu. Unfortunately, it is kept in Brother Jiu's study and cannot be taken out. The essay I recorded the purchasers commonly used by Brother Nine, as well as the counterparts of the purchasers. I picked a few that I thought were good.
We need to rearrange the purchase channels. With this essay, we can understand the ability and character of the purchaser, which can save a lot of effort! "
Shuwan smiled and said: "From now on, I can no longer call you Jiufujin, I should call you Timely Rain!"
Jiufujin said, "That's a good name! I like it!"
The three discussed for a long time and decided on the details of the cooperation. At noon, Jiufujin ordered a table of noodles, and everyone had lunch in the silk and satin village.
After the cooperation is settled, it's time to start a business.
Shuwan and the others are very efficient. Just after Laba, the closed shop reopened, but someone else opened the shop.
The shopkeepers who had been with Brother Jiu couldn't sit still when they saw the change of owner. The shopkeepers of each shop didn't care that Brother Jiu was still in confinement, so they ran to Brother Jiu's mansion to report the news.
Brother Nine was very angry when he heard about this, so he immediately sent someone out to find out who was so brave enough to take over his business.
Brother Jiu's manpower had just been dispatched when the emperor's order arrived.
The emperor scolded him for being restless, and said that those businesses would be the emperor's private property in the future, and advised Brother Jiu to give up early, study at home honestly, and arranged a lot of homework by the way.
Having grown up for so many years, the emperor still arranges homework, which is more painful to Brother Jiu than losing his business.
Jiufujin ordered someone to tidy up the study and put away all the playthings.Saying that elder brother Jiu is idle is also idle, why not take the children at home to study and see how well the children learn riding and archery.
Brother Jiu was in extreme pain and wanted to slap the table and quit, but the emperor set a time to hand in homework, so Brother Jiu could only endure the pain.
With the help of the emperor to cover it up, the three princes, Fu Jin, secretly made money, and their childhood was very happy.
Soon it was the time of the Chinese New Year, and the capital city became a little more lively.
This year's new year in the palace is doomed to be deserted, several princes have been grounded, the position of prince is pending, and the maids and eunuchs are much more careful in their work.
For the sake of Chinese New Year, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were released, the eldest elder brother and the eighth elder brother were still detained in the mansion, and the second elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother lived in the palace. They came out to kowtow After a new year, go back to your own residence.
The emperor was so cruel that he wanted to punish his sons, and he refused to let them go during the Chinese New Year.
The Chinese New Year banquet was more restrained than ever before. The Empress Dowager sat on it and smiled kindly, and the others followed suit, but no one dared to speak. Everyone knew how to say too much and make mistakes.
Concubine Yi, who has always spoken boldly, kept her mouth shut. On the one hand, she didn't dare to say more, and on the other hand, because her son was reprimanded by the emperor, she felt that her face was dull.
The banquet in the front was similar, not much more lively than the banquet in the back.
The fourth elder brother looked up and peeked, and felt that the emperor's face was not very good, and he looked very listless.
The emperor simply echoed the words of others and refused to say more.
The emperor's living habits are very good. He usually doesn't drink alcohol, and only drinks one or two glasses during the Chinese New Year.Today the emperor does not drink alcohol, only drinks water, not even tea.
The fourth elder brother was a little worried, the emperor must be sick, right?
After the palace banquet, the fourth elder brother and Shuwan went home by car together. The fourth elder brother mentioned the state of the emperor and was very worried.
"It stands to reason that Huang Ama is ill, so he will definitely call the imperial physician, but there is no news from the palace, so I'm not sure."
Shuwan said: "Maybe the emperor is a little uncomfortable, but he didn't want to mobilize the crowd, so he didn't invite the imperial doctor!
At the age of the emperor, it is already very good to maintain it like this.But he is old after all, and I heard that he also suffered from physical loss when he was young. A few days ago, the crown prince was abolished, and the princes robbed the crown prince.
No matter how good his health is, he might not be able to withstand these blows. "
The fourth elder brother is a little worried, he wants to persuade the emperor to take care of his health, but now the emperor is suspicious, guarding against princes like them is like guarding against thieves.
Caring about his father's health is a filial son in an ordinary family, but in the royal family, he is very afraid that the emperor will figure out other meanings.
The fourth elder brother is a little worried, it is difficult to be a filial son in the royal family!
