Chapter 63: I Believe in Your Character
Yan Ming was already half-drunk, and was thinking about how to say goodbye to Zhen Gan, as soon as the words of gratitude came to his mouth, he heard Zhen Qian ask about his future plans, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, he didn't hear the second half of the words clearly, his face turned gloomy and his heart was heavy: "What else, a person like me is about to become a waste person now, and I don't dare to hope for anything else, it is enough to live the rest of my life safely!" ”
"Brother Yan is preparing to give up on himself, you might as well listen to me finish speaking, although I, Zhen Qian, am not a warm-hearted person, but I can't look at you old men who shed blood and tears for the Tang Dynasty and are indifferent, I have something I want to ask Brother Yan here?"
Zhen Qian gave Wang Qun a look beside him, and Wang Qun said: "Brother Yan, let me rely on the old man to say a few words, although Brother Yan is not familiar with farming, and has been out for many years, now he has already returned to his hometown, but he can't say that he will give up on himself, just now I heard Brother Yan talk about the many old soldiers who were dismissed and returned to their hometowns together, I'm afraid this kind of thing doesn't just happen to Brother Yan, since I have met it now, I can't help but say a few words, if Brother Yan is willing, you can consider it?" ”
Yan Ming didn't feel that Wang Qun could put forward any good suggestions, but when he heard Wang Qun mention the robe Ze who also returned to his hometown, he was still a little moved and touched: "Brother Wang might as well say it directly, whether it is Yan or not, he has brought a robe to thank Brother Wang for his kindness!" ”
The reason why Yan Ming is so difficult to return to his hometown now is that to put it bluntly, he is still tired of his self-esteem, whether it is to help others guard the home, or to become a lackey of others, it is not what he wants in his heart, so he will be reduced to this field.
"Brother Yan, the soju in this restaurant was provided by Zhen Lang, as for the soju, Brother Yan also tasted it just now", Wang Qun avoided the important and did not pull the topic to the restaurant, as for what Yan Ming thought in his heart, it didn't matter, and then changed the conversation and said: "Since Brother Yan has nothing to do now, why don't I help Brother Yan come up with an idea, the soju has just been sold in Zhending now, and there is no same soju for sale elsewhere, how about Brother Yan cooperate with us?" ”
"I ...... Help you, find me to cooperate ......", Yan Ming's mind didn't turn around for a while, and his speech was a little slurred: "You asked me to sell soju ......, but I don't have the capital?" ”
Wang Qun patted Yan Ming, who was a little overwhelmed, and said, "Not busy!" We are also aware of Brother Yan's current situation, and we also know that Brother Yan's current predicament will naturally not be targeted. As for cooperation, it is not necessary to have capital, and we can even lend you some capital ......."
Yan Ming couldn't believe his ears, shook his head vigorously, and made sure that he was not dreaming, now that he could say that he had nothing and was alone, he naturally wouldn't worry about any intentions for himself, let alone be remembered, and immediately asked: "Brother Wang, please speak!" ”
Wang Qun said with a smile: "Don't hide it from Brother Yan, now we are trying to sell soju to various places, but it is difficult to show our strength in various places, and now I hear that Brother Yan has returned to his hometown with a lot of robes, so I think of Brother Yan's connections, if Brother Yan is willing to help us contact the robes in various places and let them sell soju in their hometowns, this will not only solve Brother Yan's current predicament, but also help the former Robes to seek a stable business, and the two sides can be regarded as mutually beneficial, I don't know what my proposal is?" ”
Not only was Yan Ming stunned on the spot after hearing this, but Zhen Qian was also stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he didn't expect Wang Qun to hit Yan Ming's robe Ze who returned to his hometown at the same time, and after losing his mind slightly, he immediately found a huge business opportunity from it, so he asked Wang Qun to ask Yan Ming.
Later generations said that the four irons: resisted guns together, went through the window together, prostituted together, and shared the spoils together, of course, the Tang Dynasty was no exception, the brothers who were born and died were the most iron, although the robes distributed in various places did not have much power, but this relationship was put here, and it was false to say that there was no idea.
Yan Ming was a little moved, but the pie in the sky still made him a little vigilant. It is true that he has been a soldier, but it does not mean that Yan Ming is a fool, he has no idea of his own, seeing Wang Qun throwing a big bait, he calmed down immediately after a short period of excitement, will there be any conspiracy in this.
Also from another angle, Zhen Qian will also muttered in his heart when he sees this great good thing, why should a good thing fall on his head.
Wang Qun didn't speak, and the eyes of the people around him also looked at Yan Ming, Yan Ming was silent for a moment and said, "I'm penniless now, why are you looking for me?" ”
Yan Ming still had one sentence in his stomach that he didn't say, that is, the temptation was too great, and it was difficult for him to say if he wanted to give up.
"If I say that I helped you because I saw your life in a bad situation, you would definitely not believe such nonsense", Zhen Qian said: "So I made it clear, you have network resources, that is, scattered in Hebei and other places, no matter what, if we do this by ourselves, it is indispensable to find some reliable people everywhere, and we are not familiar with the place, and it takes a lot of time to do this, to be honest, before you, we have found some merchants who walk around the world, and they are not interested in soju. Second, I don't want to take such a risk, and third, I am also a little dissatisfied with the price we provide, so I haven't negotiated so far, I happened to meet you today, and I heard that there are a lot of robes that returned to your hometown with you this time, and suddenly there is such an idea, which can save us a lot of trouble, this is a matter of mutual benefit, you can consider it and then give me an answer? ”
Zhen Qian has already said this, Yan Ming knows that the other party does not need to deceive himself, but he really doesn't understand why he can run into such good luck, and he is a little dizzy and said: "I still say the same thing before, now that I am penniless, there is no problem in helping you contact the robes in various places, but it is hard to say whether this matter can be successful?" ”
Zhen Qian knew that Yan Ming still had some concerns, so he asked Wang Qun to continue: "Brother Yan, as long as you agree to cooperate with us, even if it is to run errands to contact the robes in various places, we will not treat you badly!" ”
This time Yan Ming didn't speak, but waited for Wang Qun to finish speaking: "You must be very strange, why would you find you old soldiers, and wouldn't it be better to find merchants from all over the world, I can make it clear to you about this, those merchants are too greedy, they don't want to take any risks, and they want to desperately lower the price of our wine, so the two sides naturally can't get along!" ”
Yan Ming naturally didn't know if what Wang Qun said was concealed, but there was no need to question the greed of the merchants, thousands of miles just to seek wealth, there was nothing wrong with this!
Seeing Yan Ming nodding, Wang Qun threw a bombshell this time and said: "Brother Yan also said his situation just now, presumably the situation of the robe that returned to his hometown with you is roughly the same, so I have three proposals for this cooperation, Brother Yan will help us contact your robe in various places, bring the soju we brewed, and tell ......them our proposal."
"The first partnership proposal is for us to provide shochu and some funds to open a small liquor shop in the local area, and hire your robe to operate and sell locally, each of which will have a dividend at the end of the year in addition to the commission. The second cooperation proposal is that you pay a small amount of money from us to buy shochu first, and the rest of the wine money will be settled together when the next purchase is made, so that you can open your own sake shop with a small amount of money. The third partnership proposal is for us to jointly fund the opening of a liquor store, which will be divided according to the amount of investment. I know that most of your robes have no experience in business, and they are not even willing to come to Zhending to sell wine back for sale, we can also provide other help to your robes, if you have other ideas, we can also sit down and talk slowly, Brother Yan, what do you think of these proposals? ”
Zhen Qian couldn't help but want to applaud Wang Qun, he could think of so many cooperation plans in such a short period of time, and it was impossible to think of it without more than ten years of operation.
Yan Ming immediately hesitated, although he had no previous experience in business, but in the land of Anxi, businessmen gathered, and he also knew some ways of cooperation between businessmen.
I wanted to agree immediately, but I was worried that there were any traps, but in case ......I misunderstood the other party's kindness, Yan Ming became entangled for a while, and after a while, he said with a heart: "I can promise you this matter for the time being, but can I not guarantee it, and I will reply to you after I have seen the old robe?" ”
With such good conditions, Yan Ming hadn't agreed yet, Ju Niang on the side glared at Yan Ming viciously, and said in her heart: "The kindness is all for the dog!" ”
Zhen Qian didn't have the slightest dissatisfaction on his face, and said to Song Yi: "Give Brother Yan twenty yuan from the account, and rent a carriage, and ask for three jars of our soju on it, so that Brother Yan can take it back!" ”
"This ......", even Song Yi was a little dumbfounded, what is the situation, all of a sudden, it was money and wine, and he also helped rent a carriage, and everything added up to almost forty or fifty times, so he handed it over to a person he just met, Song Yi wanted to remind Zhen Qian, there was something wrong with this, but the words had already reached his mouth, and when he saw Zhen Qian's sharp eyes, he swallowed back the words, sighed lightly and turned around to handle the matter.
Yan Ming was also surprised, wondering if he had heard it wrong, he just promised the other party to ask, and the other party directly prepared the money and wine, this money is a lot, isn't the other party afraid that your words don't count?
Seeing Yan Ming looking at him with a puzzled gaze, Zhen Qian picked up his wine glass and said: "Before some things were done, what they said was wild, but afterwards they pushed back and forth, either avoiding talking about it, or not admitting it, but I saw that Brother Yan was not such a person, so I naturally believed in Brother Yan's character, and I also believed in my own vision!" ”
