If no one comes, then they probably have to think about it carefully, but now that they have been taken first, this is really uncomfortable, as if they see the mountains of gold and silver gradually leaving them.

They even felt that this was unfair to them, because they were all in Beijing, and they were famous and wealthy merchants, and most of their customers were officials and scholars, so they naturally had a lot of concerns, but those Jin merchants did not have so many concerns.

They are the ones who buy and sell.

Guo Dan looked at them as if they were dead fathers, and he really couldn't bear to scare them anymore, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, these Jin merchants are engaged in trade for the time being, and they are not interested in production, they just rent docks and warehouses." ”

Due to the Ming Dynasty's open system, that is, the monopoly of salt and tea, and the appointment of merchants to trade these monopoly commodities at the border, and the Ming Dynasty's trade with the north, mainly concentrated in the north of Shanxi, led to the rapid rise of these Jin merchants, and they also took the mercenary spirit of merchants to the extreme.

When Guo Dan first dealt with them, he actually had a sense of familiarity, as if he had returned to Wall Street, because the first thing they talked to Guo Dan about was to make a loan shark here.

They are not interested in workshop production with a long investment period and slow return on investment.

Although Guo Dan did not agree to them, he treated them warmly, because Henan Road is the only way for Jin merchants to enter and exit, and they are engaged in trade.

Therefore, Guo Dan rented this wharf and the nearby warehouse to them for the Jin merchants.

Of course, the price is not expensive, but those Jin merchants are also willing to rent, if this is because Weihui Mansion is currently taken over by businessmen, and Guo Dan's merchant temperament has also attracted them, to do their business, safety is very important, so many goods are placed here, if there is no guarantee, it will not work.

Zhou Feng raised his head suddenly when he heard this, and said excitedly: "That is to say, ......." ”

"Nowadays, I do a lot of the stores myself, if you are interested......

"Yes, yes, yes."

Zhou Feng nodded busily.

"Then let's talk as we go."

Guo Dan led them to the city.

Weihui Mansion City, which was originally lifeless for many days, has now recovered some popularity, and I saw that there are many vendors carrying cloth bags on the streets of the city, after all, Weihui Mansion extends in all directions, once the situation is stable, there will naturally be merchants who choose to go this way.

But at the same time, there were a lot fewer scholars, and many scholars were unwilling to stay in the place managed by merchants, so they went to Kaifeng Mansion.

And almost all the shops that open on the street are restaurants.

Guo Dan walked and said to Zhou Feng and Cao Da: "You have to hurry up, as more and more merchants come and go, you can't do without a restaurant." ”

Once trade starts, the service industry will prosper, and in Guo Dan's plan, the manufacturing industry and the service industry are the two main financial pillars of Weihui Mansion.

"Nephew, please rest assured, soon, my people are already on the way." Zhou Feng nodded hurriedly, and asked again: "Virtuous nephew, we heard that King Lu contracted King Lu's Mansion to you and asked you to rent it to a merchant?" ”

"Yes."

Guo Dan nodded, and said: "I don't plan to rent the restaurant on the side of the street to you, I keep the best for you, and the restaurants and tea shops on the street will serve those small traders in the future." ”

"I know that you won't forget us." Zhou Feng smiled happily.

They are no longer interested in these small restaurants, after all, their restaurants in the Marseille district are tens of thousands of taels of investment.

While chatting, they came to the Luwang Mansion.

The luxury inside made them jaw-dropping, and like other merchants, they all felt that such a good house was really a tyrannical thing to use as a workshop!

I really don't have to choose.

Guo Dan really didn't lie to them, just these buildings, even if they were selected with their eyes closed, they were better than their Jinyu Building. Drunken Sky Tower is much better.

Soon, Zhou Feng and Cao Da selected three buildings from the east and west respectively.

This is mainly because these buildings are used for Luwang to play and live, so the scale of a single building is not large, so only several buildings can be connected together.

The rent was not discussed in detail for the time being, because Guo Dan was not sure how much rent he would charge, but only asked them to pay a deposit of 500 taels, and then it would be stipulated in the contract that when the profit reached, the rent would be set.

This proves that Guo Dan is very confident, under normal circumstances, the landlord requires the price to be set first, regardless of your profit or loss, but the rent cannot be less. Guo Dan is different, he is not engaged in real estate, he is an investor, if the flow of customers is not much, no matter how much rent is paid, he is finished, he arranges it this way, first, to reduce the pressure on Zhou Feng and them, secondly, he thinks that it is not cost-effective to set the rent now, he is very optimistic about here, and when the profits come up, he will also shout the price.

But in addition, they had to pay Guo Dan two thousand taels each.

This includes labor costs, table and chair costs, decoration costs, and surrounding construction costs.

This table and chair have already been done, because some time ago, there was really nothing to do, and Guo Dan had to help them find trouble, so they didn't have to ask for it.

Zhou Feng and Cao Da also agreed, and they didn't bargain with Guo Dan, after all, they avoided a certain risk, so they naturally had to bear the corresponding price.

During this period, Guo Dan took their money to work for relief.

After seeing the restaurant, they came to the textile area again.

"This ...... It's a little too big. ”

When Qin Zhuang entered the textile area, he couldn't help but be shocked, he saw this scale for the first time in his life.

Guo smiled lightly: "There are only 5,000 textile machines, didn't I just say it at the beginning, it's okay to get 10,000 looms." ”

Qin Zhuang cried and laughed: "I thought that you were joking, my small business, I can't compare to my nephew, I use a lot of so many textile machines." ”

Guo said lightly: "Outside Qin Yuan, of course I know that you don't need it, but if other silk villages put silk here to weave, this point will definitely not be enough." ”

Qin Zhuang immediately looked at Guo Dan in confusion.

Guo Dan said: "Let me first talk about how you weaved before, find a merchant in the east to buy dyes, find a merchant in the west to buy silk, and find a tailor to cut, and so on."

The cost of this is not low, and the tooth shop has to take a lot of commissions, and the uncertainties are high, and the output is limited, but here, the raw materials are everything, and there are corresponding workshops from textile to cutting.

In other words, in the textile industry in the future, only businessmen need to throw money or peculiar dyes or silk here, give their own requirements, and we can help them complete it in a short time.

However, the transportation of Weihui Mansion extends in all directions, and the distance to that side is about the same, and there will be many Jin merchants in the future, and after the goods are produced, they can directly pick up the goods from here and then sell them to various places.

Even if the transportation cost is purely calculated, it is actually reduced, not increased. ”

Not to mention Qin Zhuang, even Zhou Feng and the others were dumbfounded.

According to what Guo Dan said, they fantasized about what kind of business it would be on that day, sitting in the capital, handing over the money to the tooth shop, and selling 100,000 pieces of cloth to Nanjing.

Sitting in Nanjing, the money was thrown over, and 100,000 pieces of cloth went to Mongolia.

Gao chao!

It's all high!

It's exciting to think about.

In fact, what Guo Dan has to do is OEM.

Because in addition to Weihui Mansion, it is impossible for other state capitals to centralize agriculture, so as to free up manpower to build large-scale manual workshops, not to mention other obstacles, he can only play OEM, in this way, as long as the scale of Weihui Mansion continues to expand, then it means that everyone is engaged in manual workshops.

Qin Zhuang immediately decided to agree, but there was only one condition, Yaxing became a shareholder.

He felt the mystery in the middle, but he swallowed it alone, not to mention the pressure, he didn't know how to play for the time being, so he still needed Guo Dan's help, rather than this, it was better to let Yaxing take shares.

Zhou Feng and Cao Da also agreed.

They also felt that it was a good shot.

The two sides reached an oral agreement orally, Yaxing accounted for 30% of the shares, and Qinzhuang took 70%.

"That'...... Where's the pottery workshop? ”

This stimulated Duan Changcun, and he was afraid that Guo Dan would forget him again.

However, how could Guo Dan forget him, porcelain is also an overseas commodity.

Guo smiled lightly: "Please rest assured, the largest scale of this Weihui Mansion is a ceramic workshop, so big that it can't be established, in the south of Weihui Mansion, the entire manor covers an area of five hundred hectares, and it is also equipped with a special wharf and warehouse. ”

Duan Changcun was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Guo Dan is the opposite, he did not split it very small, as long as it is the workshop of Weihui Mansion, it must be the most in the world, there is no small workshop, so a county town can not be installed, scattered to other counties.

Luwangfu is mainly a service industry, restaurants, hotels, and green buildings.

The largest of these workshops is the Five Guns and Textile Workshop, the Leather Workshop.

"Lao Cao!"

Hearing a shout, I saw Xu Jirong and Guan Xiaojie, two idiots, coming over.

The two of them came over, one hugged Cao Da and the other hugged Zhou Feng.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the Qinglou to have fun." Xu Jirong said with a grin,

Zhou Feng hurriedly said: "Ouch! Little uncle, I'm at this age, where can I still play? ”

Guan Xiaojie said angrily: "How many concubines you have, it's not that we don't know." ”

"It's ......."

Zhou Feng looked embarrassed, and couldn't help but send two eyes for help to Guo Dan.

They came here purely to make money, where do they want to go to the Qinglou, and the Qinglou here can be compared with the Jingshi.

And at this moment, Chen Xusheng suddenly walked over and said, "Guo Dan." ”

Guo Dan glanced at him, and then said to Zhou Feng and them: "Their Qinglou has just opened, you can go and cheer up, and there are many novel ways to play over there, which not only do not hurt the kidneys, but also eliminate fatigue." ”

Xu Jirong nodded and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, yes, if it's just Qinglou, I'm not interested, we still have foot soaks and massages there, but it's comfortable." Let's go, let's go. ”

Zhou Feng and the others saw that Guo Dan was in trouble, but they didn't really want to mix with Xu Jirong and them, after all, the difference in identity was too big, and they were pulled away by twisting and pinching.

After they left, Guo Dan asked Chen Xu, "What happened?" ”

Chen Xusheng said: "That's the case, a few days ago, there were two women in Dashu Village, Xinxiang County, who went to the textile workshop to work, but according to the rules of their Dashu Village, women can only teach their husbands and children at home, and they can't even go to the fields, let alone go out to work. ”

Guo Dan frowned and asked, "Since they have this rule in Dashu Village, why do those two women still come here to do things?" ”

Chen Xusheng sighed: "They are all forced, one of their husbands just died this year, the other is sick, bedridden at home, if it is usual, their village is also relieved, but in the past two years, everyone is not having a good time, the village can't come up with money to help, the two women will not come out to work, I am afraid that the family will starve to death." ”

Guo Dan was only very surprised, and said: "In other words, I would rather them starve to death than let them come out to work?" ”

Chen Xusheng nodded and said, "That's what they said, this starvation is just a trivial matter, but it can't break the rules of their ancestral hall." ”

“……！”

Guo Dan was speechless for a while, and said, "You should tell me carefully about this ancestral hall, and you can still operate like this." ”

Chen Xusheng looked at him in surprise, "You don't even know this?" ”

Guo Dan said: "I'm from the city, I don't know much. ”

“……？”

Chen Xusheng could only tell Guo Dan some things about the ancestral hall.

It turns out that in ancient times, there was a saying that the imperial power was not lower than the county, that is, the power of the imperial court generally ended in the county seat, and then down, in fact, it was the autonomy of the people, which was mainly the squire in the management, and the ancestral hall was the basic unit of national management, and each village had its own ancestral hall and its own rules.

And most of these rules are left by the ancestors, and they are very strict.

This is not conducive to the development of capital. Guo Dan listened, he couldn't help frowning, capital advocates freedom, however, the ancestral hall restricts freedom, and there are many rules that are not conducive to the development of capital, but this problem must be solved, he thought for a while, and said: "Go, take me over to see." ”

Guo Dan followed Chen Xusheng to the mansion, and saw two old men standing here with four or five young people.

Wu Guansheng was communicating with them, but he was also sweating profusely, and it seemed that the communication was not going well. Seeing Guo Dan coming, Wu Guansheng hurriedly stood up and said, "This is Guo Dan, a tooth merchant from the capital, and now Weihui Mansion is under his control." ”

As he spoke, he introduced to Guo Dan again: "These two are squires from Dashu Village, Xinxiang. He first led to the older one, "This is Huang Lao." He led to another one, "This is Old Xu." ”

"You are Guo Dan?"

The older Xu asked Guo Dan.

Guo Dan bowed his hand and said, "The two seniors came just in time, and the juniors are planning to invite you." ”

The two old men looked at each other, and the older asked, "What do you want us to do?" ”

Guo Dan stretched out his hand and said, "Two elders, please take a seat." ”

After a few people sat down, Guo said lightly: "That's the case, the two of you should also know, now that the government has withdrawn from here, it will be managed by me at present." ”

The second elder nodded, his expression was a little apprehensive, they didn't know how to deal with Guo Dan yet, of course they didn't want Guo Dan to settle in, but at present, they had no choice.

Guo Dan has also been very busy recently, so he didn't have any scruples to be so meticulous, and continued: "But the junior is just a businessman and doesn't know how to manage, especially in terms of rules, so I hope that Weihui Mansion will be managed by you squires." ”

When Chen Xusheng and Wu Guansheng heard this, they couldn't help but look surprised.

PS: Today's one shift is equivalent to owing everyone two shifts, and it must be repaid before the year.
