future.

Kou Baimen smiled bitterly, what else could she think about, if she hadn't suddenly got Li Xiangjun's life-saving straw, her only way out was to return to Qinhuai River and show up again to pick up guests.

After the bloodless Kaicheng and Jinling City were taken in history, "I Daqing" was really like a torch, and the poor people had been robbed by the virtuous Donglin Party into poor ghosts, what is the meaning of robbing poor ghosts?

Therefore, a large number of gentry were asked to go to the imperial capital, and at the same time, those officers and soldiers were naturally extorted excessively, so Baoguo Gong had no choice but to sell Kou Baimen cheaply, but this woman was very calm, at least at that moment she controlled her own destiny, and after returning to the Qinhuai River, she raised a large amount of gold to save her life.

Kou Baimen has such an awareness, but in case of emergency, he still came to find Li Xiangjun first.

Li Xiangqian smiled and said: "I don't care if Baoguo Gong dies or not, it doesn't matter if such a fool dies, a person can't keep his family business, his family will go bankrupt immediately if he loses his title, and he even needs a woman to raise money, and he won't even come out in person, how can people afford it, my meaning is very simple, this man may not be worthy of Miss Kou." ”

This sentence naturally caused ambiguity, at least in this era, this is already an absolute seduction to dig the foot of the wall.

But Kou Baimen didn't doubt anything, and said, "What do you mean? ”

Li Xiangqian said: "I need a person who is familiar with the people of Jiangnan and can take charge of himself, and this person should not have too deep a background, of course, there is no difference between the requirements of men and women, loyalty, ability, vision, of course, whether to choose you, I also have a difficult choice in my heart." ”

Kou Baimen's treatment of people is no problem, and he is skilled, and his ability to understand affairs is not bad, as a first-class singer, it is not enough to have beauty, and even the so-called talented women are useless, they have to understand some with people who are three or nine streams, and when they talk, they have to be able to use words to make people feel respected and comfortable.

Later generations of marketing "experts" always say that marketing is marketing themselves, in fact, it is a correct nonsense, people meet and communicate, there must be the most basic place, but the most fundamental, is the network, you have to know to do something, which person to find the most reliable.

The most important thing is strength, a person who sells a lot of garlic is naturally ignored, no matter how much you have assets, but a young man who runs out to sell missiles with a small bag, no matter how downtrodden he is, is definitely a big name in the international arms market.

Even if you sell a drink, you want to sell Coca-Cola, not the toji soda produced by a small workshop on the street.

Kou Baimen frowned and said, "I'm afraid that the little woman doesn't know how to do business. ”

"You don't have to worry about the money, this year...... After the autumn, there will probably be a China Merchants Association in Shanghai, and there will be our manufacturers from the north who will come to Shanghai to participate in the exhibition, of course, I have the impression that Jiangnan may also hope to join in...... Your job is basically to help promote this investment association, in fact, you don't have to do the general direction, I haven't figured out whether to accept those big businessmen. ”

The merchants of this era were very different.

Big businessmen rely on monopoly and government strength to evade taxes, and it can be said that they have formed several major merchant gangs, including the Huaibei merchant gang engaged in salt tax, and the Jin merchant who engaged in foreign trade, and almost did not have to spend their brains to do business.

Of course, in later generations, it is basically the same routine, you don't see, the children of the dignified American president, even the most basic simple multiplication.

And the incompetence of these people is actually not low, at least in the later generations, they were beaten very badly.

However, China's population base, as well as cultural traditions, can be a steady stream of good businessmen among the people, even an ignorant child, can also be in the storyteller, singer, the mouth of the storyteller, the singer of the few points that a businessman should do, nothing more than credit, the quality of goods, the attitude towards customers, will come to things, deal with all aspects of the characters.

In this respect, Chinese civilization has a terrible power.

Before reading the history books of later generations, Li Xiangqian was amazed by the establishment process of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, a failed dog in the imperial examination who could not pass the examination, a group of lowest-level handicraft workers, without any Confucian students joining, relying on preliminary literacy ability, and simple drama, groping to learn how to build the structure of a country, although all kinds of things are ridiculous, but if there were no foreigners who constantly transfused blood to the corrupt Manchu Qing and imported advanced arms for strangulation, they really had a chance to enter the city of Beijing!

This is the advantage of this civilization, respect for knowledge, so that even the poorest people can enjoy cultural products such as storytelling and drama, and then they can see the real history inside.

At least, China's record of history is so detailed that it is terrifying, and it is written that the tomb of Qin Shi Huang used mercury as a river, and various descriptions, and in later generations, metal detectors did detect a large amount of mercury inside the imperial tomb!

This kind of inheritance power is indeed very terrifying, because in the later life, almost all the pits have been stepped on, and there is no need to make a fuss about what you see.

Kou Baimen gritted his teeth and said, "But the money ......"

Li Xiangqian said: "First of all, 10,000 taels, I can't take it out, I'm a civil servant, even if my income is higher, it's impossible to help you with the money in the public account, this is ruining ourselves, we have our own internal control and supervision, but, I sound, that person actually has a lot of wealth, but it's difficult to make a frugality, and it's impossible for the people around him to persuade him to save money, isn't that a smashing of his own job." ”

Although I haven't seen the husband of Kou Baimen, but if you think about it carefully, you know how that person was ruined, vanity.

Under vanity, marrying the fair-skinned and bright Kou Baimen cost a lot of money, but it was just a male showing off his possession of a beautiful female's inferior nature.

And the helpers around him are not simple, these people are all the masters who are playing with the master's house, and they take the opportunity to spend money on their own expenses, and as people who don't know how to manage the house at all, it is normal for these Guogong to lose.

Kou Baimen lowered his head and said, "I have also persuaded me a few times, but I have already lost my favor, so I can't say anything." ”

Li Qianqian nodded and said: "Those who can humbly accept advice are not things in the pool, and in the case of the Ming Dynasty, they would have rebelled a long time ago." ”

It's a paradox, a great paradox.

These gentry magnates had better resources to seize power.

But the activities carried out by these gentry and magnates were directed to the level of their skills.

In a word, it's waste.

If you were a normal person, your own upright and upright prince, your salary was deducted by these guys in your Nanjing small court, and you would have found a way to fight back a long time ago!

But being vicious to his subordinates and flattering to his superiors is their essence, and without military power, he can't do much.

Why is Liu Bei admired by many people?

A sloppy and greasy man in his forties and fifties, with a little money, did not think about taking advantage of the last opportunity to support female students, but looked at the fat on his body and lamented that he was old and fat and incompetent, but still struggled and struggled, and finally ascended the throne and became the emperor when he was sixty.

It's not motivational, it's motivational, it's inspirational.

But it also illustrates the problem from the side.

There are very few people who can humbly accept suggestions and implement them at a very young age.

Even a handful of people who are still up and brave enough to start a business are almost non-existent.

That's the biggest problem for all decision-makers!

When there is a problem in a group, it is generally because of internal problems that lead to external squeezing, but the people who live in this group are very able to perceive the problems themselves, because he himself is the beneficiary of the group's interests, and naturally he can only feel how beautiful the world is.

That's the problem, in the history of mankind, there is no one in a million people who can sympathize with the lower classes of people in the body of the powerful and don't think they all deserve to die.

When the group encounters problems, it is generally the people who have the ability to evade taxes, that is, the upper elites are unwilling to give up their own interests, so the tax pressure increases, while the administrative costs are rising, and there are more powerful people who need to be fed, and how can there be any way for people who have grown up in the hands of women in the deep palace since childhood.

At the same time, in terms of ability, when a country or company encounters a problem, if it still uses the original system or the original way to solve the problem, but finds that there is no salvation at all, because it is this problematic system that causes the problem to appear, you still use this trick, don't hit the street, etc.

Li Xiangqian pointed to the bell tower in the distance and said, "Do you know what that is?" ”

Kou Baimen said: "Sister Xiangjun said that this is a bell tower, which is an artifact that can see the hour. ”

"No, he's more, it's a different way of life, and the clock means consistency."

"Consistency?"

"Yes, the minute hand and the second hand of the big clock represent the hour and the scale, as well as the minute and second, respectively, and the time is the same for everyone, whether rich or poor, you see."

He took out a mechanical watch and said, "This is what you have to find a way to sell, not this kind of watch, but the concept of time it represents, and the quality of life that this watch represents, is what a civilization really needs." ”

Kou Baimen took it in his hand and said, "Time? ”

"I heard that there is such a saying, the key to whether the country is advanced or not lies in whether the people from the upper level to the people pay attention to the concept of time, the slow pace of life sounds very good, but how can young people see the old life for a lifetime, it is still very important to work hard, and for individuals, the concept of time is also a very important touchstone."

In later generations, the watch has been completely reduced to a powerful tool for the rich and the poor, completely forgetting that the function of this thing is only to keep time.

Of course, the most important function is also the timekeeping.

What is modernization, it is not just to put on new clothes and look like a dog, but to be a modern person in itself.

Kou Baimen can only be used as a person to be investigated.

Her identity is undecided.

"Then, I have a way to deal with your father-in-law's debts, we still have some relationships in Nanjing, let those relationships temporarily seal the debts, 10,000, it seems like a lot, but if you really complete the sales performance according to what I said, then it is really not too much of a problem, so, it depends on yourself, whether you can break through the psychological barrier of how you feel the identity of a businessman."

In fact, at this time, Da Ming said that he discriminated against businessmen, it was just to suppress and attack opponents, who crossed the public to become an official, and didn't want to find a few white gloves or simply marry a standard rich businessman who would do business as a wife, he couldn't support himself!

However, these things, it is not Li Xiangqian's turn to worry about, in his opinion, even if he "sells" Kou Baimen, it is only a matter of time before the prince is bankrupt and ruined, and in history, it is because after being arrested and taken to the imperial capital, he has since "disappeared" in the records of history.

Get rid of the dross.

"Of course, property rights should be clear, first of all, I hope you don't regard this as the practice of the Ming Dynasty, that is, just sit there and take the money without doing anything, of course, you better remember that this is your own money, I'm afraid, the official will come to entangle after the fact, and you will be so entangled for the rest of your life."

This is a very difficult thing to solve, it is difficult for a Qing official to cut off family affairs, not to mention anything else, there is a Schrödinger girl in later generations, and this is the situation that is said to be "stupid and sweet" in the face of foreigners, all kinds of "believe in love", "have love and drink water", and then scold men with a big belly......

In the face of Chinese boys, monkey spirits, various property agreements, real estate names, all of them are comparable to marriage law experts, property experts, if you don't buy expensive gifts, you don't love you.

Li Xiangqian dared to bet with all his property, once Kou Baimen's business improved and he saved a sum of money, then the grandfather of the country would catch up, either saying that you are all mine, and your money is also mine, or begging to return to the old good.

"Since that person is ready to sell me, and I take on his debts, it can be regarded as a write-off, and if I come to entangle, I will naturally not care."

"Well, you know, among men, there is also a kind of guy who eats soft rice, thinking about begging for your benefits, but I suggest that you communicate more with Xiangjun, and women can also be independent."

Kou Baimen smiled and said, "What Mr. said seems to be speaking on the side of our women. ”

Li Xiangqian scratched his head, is that so.

His generation is basically the product of egalitarian education, where men will scold men when they cheat women, and women will scold women when they cheat men, there is no difference.
