Chapter 108 The Family of Brocade Clothes
Yi Zhishu thought all the way, and unconsciously the sedan chair had stopped outside the door of the house, and he took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was already past ten o'clock, and then he instructed the little servant Li Wang: "Go to the main room to inquire, see if the old lady is resting." ”
"Yes." Li Wang bowed in response, and then trotted away.
Stretching his waist, Yi Zhizhi slowly entered the door, and when he arrived at the second door, Li Wang trotted back and said, "Mrs. instructed, the young master has been tired for a day, so he doesn't have to ask for peace and rest early." ”
This is already resting, Yi Zhizu nodded, and turned straight to the east courtyard, before entering the courtyard, the little servant Lin Da'an greeted him, Yi Zhizu glanced at him, and said, "But what is the news?" ”
There has been nothing to do in the past few days, Lin Da'an and several other small guys are collecting news in the market, listening to the inquiry, Lin Da'an hurriedly replied: "Back to the young master, although the tea market is not open, there are still sporadic tea transactions, and the price of tea has risen to twenty-two taels." ”
"Hmm." Yi Zhizu nodded slightly, and said, "Rest early if you have nothing to do." ”
"Young Master..." Lin Da'an wanted to speak and stopped.
"Anything else?" Yi Zhixiang glanced at him, turned around and instructed Li Wang, "You go and rest first." ”
After Li Wang left, Lin Da'an hesitated for a moment, and then plucked up his courage and said: "Young master, there are too few people, and the information to inquire is limited, so the small one wants to hire some people, including the ...... who copy, sort out and analyze the news." ”
Hearing that he wanted to add more manpower, Yi Zhixiang looked at him with interest and said with a smile: "Still addicted? ”
"Don't dare to hide it from the young master." Lin Da'an hurriedly said: "The little one met a young man, he said that it shouldn't be us who collects and investigates intelligence, and also said that his ancestor is a ...... of the former Ming Jinyi Wei family. ”
The former Ming brocade family? Yi Zhizu frowned and said, "It's been almost two hundred years since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, do you believe this?" ”
After a moment of silence, Lin Da'an said: "The little one believes that he is not a swaggering person. ”
Seeing that he was serious, Yi Zhixiang groaned for a while, and then said: "Since this is the case, you hire him first, see what kind of charter he has, and if he is indeed talented, then introduce him to me." ”
"Yes, young master." Lin Daan said with joy in his heart.
Back in the backyard, after taking a bath, Yi Zhizu wore a linen gauze shirt and pants and lay on the recliner in the yard to enjoy the coolness, Chunmei and Xia He two girls one fanned on the side, one massaged him, the two girls rarely saw him, and also knew that he was easy-going and easy to get along with, and he had no scruples, Chunmei said while fanning: "There have been more guests in the house in the past two days, and most of them are women." ”
"Don't hide it, just say it." Easy to be content with lazy ways.
"What kind of female dependents, most of them are matchmakers, and they are all here to kiss." Xia He pursed his lips and smiled: "Our young master is now the most popular in Guangzhou City, and I don't know which young lady is blessed to be picked by ......his wife." ”
It's pro again, Yi Zhifen couldn't help frowning, with Yuan Qi unifying the Guangzhou money bank, as the big shopkeeper of Yuan Qi, he is now afraid that he has become the fifth diamond king in Guangzhou City, although he is only eighteen years old, but this year he got married early, and there are not many people in large families who are eighteen years old and have not married, and there are even fewer who have not been engaged.
I have to think of a way, the old man is good to say, the old lady is hard to say, if he is moved, it will be a troublesome thing at that time, he has not even seen the face, so he will marry back and be his wife, this matter is put on him, and it is tangled to think about it.
Early the next morning, Yi Zhishu got up and washed up and rushed to the main room to greet his parents, Yi Yunchang, who was practicing five poultry plays in the yard to stretch his muscles, saw him come to say hello, and immediately took the posture, took the towel handed by the maid and asked while wiping his sweat: "When is the tea market going to open?" After the market opens, how much is the price of tea likely to rise, and what price is suitable for selling? ”
Yi Zhishu smiled and said, "How much did my father buy?" ”
"All 340,000 taels were smashed in, and the average price was 18 taels." Yi Yunchang said with a smug face.
Yi Zhixiang didn't answer him, but asked: "I heard that there are a lot of matchmakers who have come to the door to kiss these days?" ”
"Ask your mother about this, how can my father know."
Yi Zhizhi said with a smile: "As soon as the tea market opens, there may be great twists and turns, my father has eaten nearly 20,000 loads, and the fluctuation of this tael of silver is nearly 20,000 taels of silver in and out ......." ”
Seeing that he intended to sell Guanzi, Yi Yunchang glared at him angrily and said, "Do you have ideas on family affairs?" ”
Yi Zhixin said simply: "The child doesn't want to get married too early. ”
"There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, you are nineteen years old this year, when are you going to drag it out?"
"The child met the governor yesterday, but Lord Deng promised the child to go to the court and seek an official position for the child." Yi Zhizhi said with a smile: "Let the child have an official body, and then talk about family affairs?" ”
"Did you see Lord Ministries yesterday?" Yi Yunchang's face was overjoyed, and he was sure that he was appreciated by the Governor, and he immediately said cheerfully: "Okay, don't be in a hurry at this time, your mother will go and say it for your father." ”
"Thank you, Father." Yi Zhizu bowed down with a smile on his face, got up and saw his mother coming slowly, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, Lin smiled and said, "What's the matter, so happy?" ”
"Let my father tell you." Yi Zhishu got up and smiled: "The child still has urgent matters..." As he spoke, he slipped away.
Yi Yunchang hurriedly said: "Stinky boy, what about the price of tea?" ”
"It's going to be a few days before the market opens!" Yi Zhishu laughed loudly: "Father doesn't need to worry. ”
Yi Zhixiang stepped out of the door in a comfortable mood, and saw Yan Shikuan greeted him with a smile, and couldn't help laughing: "A thief smile on his face, but what's the good thing?" ”
Yan Shikuan smiled and took out a silver ticket and shook it, and said triumphantly: "One thousand yuan, the old man rewarded one thousand yuan yesterday, let's go, I'll have morning tea tonight." ”
Yi Zhizu sighed lightly and said, "Can you be a little promising?" ”
"What do you mean by the third brother?" Yan Shikuan blinked his small eyes and said, "Too little? ”
"It's not too little." Yi Zhizu patted him on the shoulder, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "It's not that the third brother said you, you shouldn't take this money, your Yan family now has to use the blade of every ocean, the uncle is a good intention, I expect you to take this money to invite the third brother to eat, drink and have fun, I took it, you return the money, the third brother has no time to eat, drink and have fun now." ”
How could Yan Shikuan believe his nonsense, his little eyes rolled, and he said tentatively: "The third brother is also speculating in tea?" ”
Smiling, Yi Zhizhi said subtly: "I made a little profit." He invested 400,000 yuan into the tea market, and conservatively estimated that he could earn 300,000 yuan, deducting the investment of Tianbao Watch Factory and Yuan Qi's share capital, his current net worth is at least more than 500,000 yuan, which is enough to rank among the richest people in Guangzhou.
Yan Shikuan didn't believe that he had just made a small profit, rolled his eyes, and said, "This money is returned, how can I live this life?" ”
"How's it going?" Yi Zhishu smiled: "I don't have money to lose weight." ”
