husband in another world

Chapter 91 Cooperation

"Xiao Mo, I plan to go to Lord Qian's place in a while. He is the leader of Liu Town, and he is very prestigious in all walks of life. If you want to build a commercial street, you must have him. You and Xiao Yu will go with me? "

Zhou Yuhe took some time off from his private school, initially saying that he was taking care of his injured father.The old master thought of his filial piety and felt sorry for his family accident, so he agreed.Now that Feng Wanzhan is gone, and the holidays are not used up, Zhou Jing is not in a hurry to let Zhou Yu go back to sell the holidays. Instead, he asks him to review at home for a few days to fully digest what he has learned in the past few days. Zhou Yu is also willing.It happened that Zhou Jing was about to go out to talk about the commercial street. This was a big deal, a rare opportunity, and it was worth learning, so he planned to let Zhou Yu follow along.Zhou Jing believes that sometimes people can't just go one way to the dark, and focus on their official career while keeping their ears to the outside world. This will often be counterproductive.

Shen Mo hesitated, "It's not that good, you can just talk to me about business matters at home, if you take me out to discuss business, I'm afraid people will laugh at you, there is no such precedent in this dynasty."

Zhou Jing looked at Shen Mo, his eyes were full of tenderness.Shen Mo could feel that since Zhou Jing came back from prison, his feelings for him had become stronger.To say that it used to be the affection between husband and wife, but now there are other emotions mixed in this love between husband and wife. He couldn't tell what kind of emotion it was, maybe Zhou Jing himself couldn't tell the difference, but it was more intense. Feelings.This kind of relationship makes them more inseparable and more dependent on each other. At the same time, they can safely expose their backs to each other for protection.

Zhou Jing made no secret of his emotional changes, and now looked at him with sticky but not greasy eyes.The soft voice made Zhou Yu feel goosebumps.

"Momo, aren't precedents meant to be broken by others? If others can break precedents, so can we. What's more, Momo, don't you break few precedents? I haven't heard of any Shuang'er who has the ability to save people. Fu Lang, you were saved, but you might still be suffering in prison today because of your husband!"

Shen Mo's blush from his praise was mainly because Zhou Jing's tone was too soft, that kind of tone seemed to be unable to hide the strands of affection.

"Is the son still there?" Shen Mo looked at Zhou Yu embarrassedly. Although he liked Zhou Jing talking to him in this tone, it was not good for his son to be here.

Zhou Yu was quite calm, "Ah, it's okay. My son is used to it."

"..."

"The son thinks what the father said is right. Ah Mo is different from ordinary twins. Since he is interested in business and can do a good job, he might as well go out with his father to learn. After learning, he can help his father, and secondly When my father has other things and has no time to spare, he can also come out to take charge, so as not to be manipulated by some shopkeepers in the shop with ulterior motives."

Shen Mo felt that it made sense and said: "Then I'll go and see with Brother Jing, which can be regarded as exploring the way. If those people have no other reactions, I will follow them when discussing business in the future. If they have other ideas, let's discuss it in the long run. "

When the matter is settled, Jiang Wei is notified to prepare a car.

The carriages left by Feng Wanzhan made Jiang Wei so rare that he didn't need Zhou Jing to order him to go out to find the coachmen of those who had carriages for advice on how to handle the horses. Because of these, many masters in Liu Town knew about Zhou's birth before nightfall. Afterwards, not only did he fail, but he also got two good horses.It seems that this previously quiet Zhou family suddenly turned out not because of luck, but because of a big backer behind it.Because the backing is too big, it's not easy to show off.The former county magistrate thought that there was no such thing, and planned to make trouble for him, but he didn't realize that he didn't make a good deal of it.

The horse was carefully taken care of by Jiang Wei, smoother than when he came, and he was strong and full of energy. He specially made several gorgeous and luxurious carriages, and even divided them into winter and summer styles.The light gauze tent in summer looks cool with light colors.In winter, a thick layer of cotton is added, and a small heater is placed in the compartment to keep it warm.In order to sit comfortably, Zhou Jing drew the springs and found someone to order them. The springs were placed on the bottom of the car, and several layers of thick blankets were spread.

The three of them sat in the car, and the small heater had already been raised. It was only two times bigger than the hand warmer, and it didn't look crowded when sitting around, because it was getting warm after being raised for a while.

Although Jiang Wei was driving a carriage outside, it wasn't too cold. Zhou Jing set him up with a special kind of clothes, which were actually similar to the windshields of the later generations when riding motorcycles. It was made of leather with a layer of animal fur.Then he made him a lint hat and cotton gloves called waistcoats and knee pads. Wearing these on his body made Jiang Wei not very cold even in the cold wind, which was completely tolerable.His body made the coachmen of other houses very envious, their jealous eyes turned red.But I can only be jealous, not everyone is as benevolent as Master Zhou, after all, this body can earn a lot of money.

There was a heater in the carriage, so Jiang Wei never drove the carriage very fast, for fear that the carriage would overturn or hit pedestrians.Even so, the people on the street saw it and kept away from it.The Zhou family's reputation in Liu Town is now very strong, and everyone knows that his family has a strong backing.After all, if other ordinary people were wronged by the county magistrate, they would be wronged, and they would never even think about compensation, let alone an apology.But the Zhou family, if you dare to be wronged, you will be called Dai Hualing.

He arrived at Qian's mansion in a short while, because he had received the news in advance, Master Qian was waiting at home early, and he even told his servants in advance that if the Zhou family came, he must not neglect, and there was even better tea and water at home.Now he attaches great importance to the cooperation with the Zhou family, no matter whether the business is successful or not, the relationship must always be maintained.

In fact, Zhou Jing had asked him out before. Master Qian felt that he was quite business-minded, but he also knew that business cooperation must not appear to be very willing, otherwise he would be manipulated, so he kept shirking things.Until the accident happened to the Zhou family, he was still secretly grateful for his decision, but he didn't expect that in just a few dozen days, the situation would turn around in an instant, the Zhou family became very powerful, and those who had been secretly eager to take advantage of the opportunity to loot suddenly stopped.Master Qian secretly wiped off his sweat. He was afraid that Zhou Jing would bear grudges, and when he planned to find an opportunity to come to express his concern and apologize, the Zhou family handed over the greeting card again, as if nothing had happened in the past.At this time, Master Qian didn't dare to manipulate him, he only wanted to repair the relationship.

The concierge got the master's order, and seeing that the time was about the same, he came out again and again, and saw the carriage with the Zhou family emblem coming from a distance, so he opened the door immediately, and another person hurried into the house to inform the master.

"Master, the Zhou family's carriage is here!"

Master Qian quickly stood up and stretched his clothes, "Hurry up, is anyone in the hospital?"

"No. I listened to your order. I saw the carriage of the Zhou Mansion from a distance and came to report it immediately."

"Let's hurry up and go out to meet Zhou Manor's carriage before it arrives."

So much so that when Zhou Jing got out of the car, he saw Mr. Qian outside the door with the tip of his nose red from the cold.

"It's freezing cold, how dare you bother everyone to welcome the boy."

Master Qian hurriedly said, "I'm overjoyed when a distinguished guest comes, it should be."

Zhou Jing smiled and said, "Master Qian shows his love." As he spoke, the door curtain on the car moved, and there seemed to be someone inside, and Zhou Jing hurriedly turned around to help, there were obviously pedals on the ground, but Zhou Jing was still very eager like that.

Master Qian thought about it.Could it be that the big man behind Zhou Jing came unexpectedly, so he leaned over to look.But it was a familiar face, Zhou Fulang.

Master Qian was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately covered up the surprise in his eyes, but he was troubled in his heart.The servants of the Zhou mansion did not say that Zhou Fulang would come to visit, so he did not tell his wife to prepare. Besides, his good female family members do not like Shuang'er, so except for the servants, there is no Shuang'er in the inner house. of.It is very impolite for the couple to be entertained by the female relatives alone.He was in a difficult situation, and then saw Zhou Fulang come down, the curtain of the car moved again, and then a child jumped out, it was the young master of the Zhou family, this child jumped down by himself, and neither of the two adults of the Zhou family specifically cared he.

Master Qian looked at the two of them, thinking of the old rumors about Zhou Jing hurting his husband, his brain hurts, it seems that the rumors are true.But it made it even more difficult for him. This week Fulang's poor hospitality may be more hurtful than directly offending Zhou Jing.At the same time, he quickly calculated in his mind which relatives who lived close to him were suitable candidates for entertaining Zhou Fulang.

Before Mr. Qian could think of a candidate, Zhou Jing apologized and said, "It's no wonder that Mr. Qian was invited for an abrupt visit with my husband's son today. It's all because my husband's son is interested in business and came to study."

The long-sleeved and good at dancing, Mr. Qian really didn't realize it this time, and was stunned at the moment.He can understand that he brought his son here to discuss business. After all, Zhou Jing is only an only son, so such a large property cannot be handed over to outsiders, and sooner or later the only son will have to take over.Now follow the study, even though it is early, you can understand it.But how can a Shuanger learn to do business? There is no such rule.If it weren't for Zhou Jing's modest attitude, Master Qian would have thought that Zhou Jing had stepped on his face because of his previous negligence.

Zhou Jing saw that Mr. Qian seemed unable to react, and explained with a smile: "Mr. Qian, don't blame the kid for being ignorant. In fact, you don't know the real ability of my husband. If you knew, you wouldn't think Offended."

"Leaving aside, let's just say that the boy was deeply imprisoned a few days ago. If the husband hadn't been in charge, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand here and discuss business with Mr. Qian today. The students who asked for orders in front of the door were grateful for the boy's friendship in building the study. Spontaneously asking for orders, it was actually planned by the boy's husband for the boy."

Master Qian was astonished and said, "Such a grand plea for life was actually done by Zhou Fulang!"

No wonder Mr. Qian was so shocked, women and Shuang'er of the imperial dynasty were of low status, except for the role of having children, it was also a man's role to relieve the loneliness of the body, canary-like pets, never really took them seriously.It is only allowed to deal with the affairs of the back house, and it is not allowed to intervene in outside business matters.As a result, most women can't handle things with both children. If the backbone of the family is there one day, it seems that there is no other way but to cry.As for those concubines, they will immediately tidy up and find their next home.Those who barely support their families are also bullied.However, the husband of the Zhou family, who was suddenly thrown into jail at home, stood up to take charge without any preparation, and made a calm and rational response quickly, which is really not to be underestimated.

Master Qian didn't dare to underestimate Shen Mo at this moment. If the same thing happened to him, not to mention that his wife had nothing to do with it, even the sons in his family who were a few years older than Zhou's couple would panic. , don't know what to do.

Sighing secretly in his heart, Master Qian suddenly felt a sense of dissatisfaction. The Zhou family was able to rise rapidly in such a short period of time, and the family was indeed not one to be taken lightly.

"Master Qian, please don't think that this is the only thing that Mr. Fulang is capable of. The big one is yet to come. Then he said that the former county magistrate asked them to find a way to save him political achievements. It was also Mr. Mr. Qian's idea, boy Only then did I propose to build the road. This road construction also made the boy receive the gift of the present, and the boy is ashamed to receive it. It should be the honor of the boy's husband, but it was taken by the boy."

Master Qian's eyes almost popped out, he was so startled that he ignored the etiquette and looked up and down Shen Mo, as if he was determined to see something special about him.

Fortunately, he entered the hall while talking, and the servant who had been waiting for a long time came over to pour tea immediately.Only then did Master Qian come back to his senses, took the teapot and poured tea for Zhou Jing and Shen Mo himself.Zhou Yu was still a child after all, Master Qian was considered his grandpa, and it was the servant who served the tea.

Shen Mo was a little embarrassed by the praise. Although what Zhou Jing said was true and he had done it, he always felt that the things that were obviously ordinary from his mouth added a bit of legend. Listen. He felt that he had really done something extraordinary.

"Zhou Fulang is really capable, the old man's sons are probably inferior to you."

"Master Qian praised it, and the juniors are a little afraid to accept it."

Master Qian laughed loudly, "I can bear it, I can bear it. The old man said that this week, the master didn't look down on anyone. After arguing for a long time, it's because the husband of the family is so good that he compares everyone else to a vulgar fan. Don’t blame Master Zhou anymore.”

"Master Qian is right." Zhou Jing followed up, and then the two laughed heartily, until Shen Mo's face turned red.

"By the way, I'm here for business this time. I want to ask Master Qian if he has any idea to develop a commercial street with you."

"Commercial Street?"

"Yes, it is a commercial street like Huichun Street. The entire street is full of shops and not a single residence. However, our commercial street is artificially built, not naturally formed day after day."

Master Qian recognized the business opportunity, and if it can be realized, neither the Zhou family nor the Qian family will be comparable today.

"The boy has taken a fancy to East Street, it is a poor place, as long as we give one or two taels of silver at the market price, those people will be happy to take the silver and move out of that poor environment. The boy has done research in advance , the people on the East Street are not only poor, but the environment is also messy, and there are often many ruffians and rogues. It's not that the people there don't want to leave, but because they don't have money to move, and the house can't be sold, so they can only live in it. We bought it In the area, uniformly built well-organized shops can be sold or bought, but they must be uniformly regulated. For example, there will be lucky draws to attract customers during festivals and festivals. In addition, each shop must have its own characteristics, and we will not interfere with the operation of their shops. However, we are responsible for the environment and order of the entire street to ensure that the business on this street will not be disturbed by hooligans. In this way, I think many southerners who want to expand their business will also be willing to choose our shop in this commercial street on the street."

Master Qian has been completely persuaded. Zhou Jing didn't say that he couldn't think of it, or that he didn't dare to think about such a big thing at all. Building a commercial street sounds too whimsical.But Zhou Jing talked about many things and the specific details, which made Master Qian feel that it was feasible in an instant.

"Do you have any specific plans?" he asked.

Zhou Jing showed him the plan prepared in advance, and Master Qian browsed quickly, and the more he read it, the more he felt that this matter would definitely be possible.

Immediately agreed to cooperate with Zhou Jing, as if afraid of Zhou Jing's repentance, he actually took a pen and paper on the spot, and signed the contract while changing the terms.

"The commercial street is too big. I'm afraid that the two of us may not have enough financial resources to start a joint venture. I plan to find a few more masters with good character and good financial resources. I wonder if Master Qian has any recommendations?"

Master Qian thought for a while, and recommended a few people to come out.As soon as those masters heard that they wanted to cooperate with the Zhou family, they agreed without even asking about any business. After Zhou Jing carefully explained how to build and manage the commercial street, they scrambled to sign the contract, fearing that it would be too late. was squeezed by others.

After the cooperating masters settled down, they began to discuss the demolition with the people living on the East Street.Fearing that too many people would come to the door and cause panic among the residents, we separated the people sent by the masters, and formed a group of two people from different houses to negotiate a family. Write the name of the family on the roster, first sign the letter of intent, and then unify Take it back, and it will be reviewed by several masters. It is meaningless to give money.

He Xi was sent by the Zhou family, and He Xi's brother was sent to open a shop in Linzhen. If the benefits are good, maybe he will be sent to other places to expand his business next year.In order to train him, Zhou Jing appointed him.

He Xi and the other men in the house have been trained by Zhou Jing, and they know what they want to do, and they also know not to disturb the people, and they are forceful.Everyone is very polite, no matter how shabby the house is, they have to knock on the door outside.Some people's houses have fence doors, and it's useless to knock or not, so they just stand outside and call for people.

"Excuse me, is anyone at home?"

Hearing the yelling, a woman came out and saw two tall men standing outside the door, she immediately warned: "Who are you and what are you doing?"

He Xi immediately comforted her: "This sister-in-law, don't panic, I'm here to buy a house."

"Buy a house?" This stunned the woman.
