Chapter 52: Private Affairs
Liu Han also saw the danger of the alley, and on the way out, he encountered two provoking people, but after the other party showed a little cultivation, he immediately disappeared, and then no one came to hinder him.
I went around Dongfang City, and the things in Dongfang obviously have the breath of the East, the beautiful Qingzhou silk, the mellow Yuzhou Dufeng tea, the embroidery of Yangzhou embroidery room, the large and round pearls of Zhuzhou, the sky-high price of Chizhou sandalwood, and the jewelry of the imperial capital Rong Bao Zhai.
There is a clear difference in the style of goods between the east and west markets, the east market is exquisite, the west fang is rough, even if it is the same jewelry, the jewelry in the east market is much more delicate and ingenious, even if it is the best jewelry in the western regions brought by Liu Han, it is not comparable.
However, the things in Xifang are full of exotic styles, which are very attractive to the Chang'an nobles who are accustomed to seeing the oriental style.
Out of the alley, the security situation in the whole Chang'an is good, there are no difficult provocations along the way, Liu Han only Shi Shiran returned to the inn after the market was closed, after dinner, Lao Huang Liu Tie reported to him the audit situation, in addition to the two funds that went to the unknown, the accounts are all right, but the inventory of the warehouse is less than two percent, Liu Han interrogated the second shopkeeper, the second shopkeeper did not conceal it, these two goods were taken away by the Fu family, the payment has not returned, it belongs to credit sales.
This kind of sales is allowed, but it has to be aimed at reputable ones, which Liu Han taught them when he lectured.
Liu Han didn't pursue it, and told the second shopkeeper to go back and let the third prince send the payment as soon as possible, since the audit didn't find any major problems, he could take their people away tomorrow.
The problem left to Liu Han now is the personnel arrangement of Chang'an Store, the second shopkeeper he arranged was demoted to the head of the caravan by Bi Liang, and now he is still in the desert, and he will not be able to come back for half a month, this is still in the absence of accidents, if there is an accident, then I don't know.
"Let's let Yang Qiu come, he is familiar with Chang'an. Lao Huang proposed, for Liu Han's vision of selecting people, especially in business, he is convinced, whether it is Bi Liang or Lao Wang, they are outstanding, opened up the markets of Chang'an and Liangzhou, and made Hanhai Trading Company the premier trading company in these two states, even if Bi Liang betrayed, it cannot be denied that Liu Han has a vision for selecting people.
"Why didn't he report?" Liu Han seemed to be discussing with Lao Huang and questioning: "He has the right to report." ”
Liu Han has at least two people in each store, this personnel arrangement is not only to supervise each other, but also to contain each other, but his problem is that there are not enough people, there are not enough talents, he has been in the Western Regions for more than ten years, there are not many Jin people in the Western Regions, he still has to spend a lot of time on cultivation and alchemy, it is easy to train some people, his career is already big, there are some more people in the Western Regions, and some people are sent to do secret work, and there are so many left, it is impossible to do everything.
Lao Wang has been tested for a long time and is trustworthy enough, but Liu Han still left someone in his shop, this person is the head of the caravan, when he arrived in Guzang, he was still in the desert, and there were two people in Chang'an, in addition to Bi Liang, the other was this Yang Qiu.
Yang Qiu is also of mixed Han and Yi blood, Liu Han cultivated him for three years before he was sent to Bi Liang as the second shopkeeper, and the second shopkeeper has the right to report separately, so Bi Liang dismissed his second shopkeeper, but he didn't report it, which is intriguing.
Lao Huang was silent, of course he knew the key to this, not only Liu Han, but even he was wondering if this Yang Qiu was conspiring with Bi Liang.
Everything is difficult to explain now, judging from the current situation, Yang Qiu and Bi Liang have not been found to have conspired, but the guys below know about the shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper.
"Then be prepared. Lao Huang pondered for a moment and proposed: "Let Lao Wang send someone, what do you think?"
Liu Han was silent and nodded slightly, now it is necessary to transfer manpower from Lao Wang, fortunately, Liangzhou has decided to shrink, and there can be manpower withdrawn.
At this time, Liu Tie came in and reported a situation.
"A guy said that Yang Qiu and Bi Liang's wife had an affair. ”
Liu Han was a little surprised, this was an unexpected situation, Bi Liang's wife? He recalled in his mind the little woman he saw today, dressed in plain clothes, sad and sad, everyone said that he wanted to be pretty and filial, but he didn't feel how beautiful that woman was, why did she attract his two shopkeepers?
"Is there any evidence?" asked Lao Huang with a frown.
He said that he saw it with his own eyes, "Liu Tie also knew that this matter was not trivial, so he asked in detail, Bi Liang went out a few times, and the woman quietly went to Yang Qiu's place for a tryst, and he bumped into it twice.
"Liu Tie, there is a little guy in Bi Liang's family, it's called ......" Liu Han suddenly remembered that he forgot to ask the name of the little guy: "I forgot what it's called, you go and bring him tomorrow." ”
Liu Tie agreed, Liu Han thought about it, and then ordered: "Call Qian Ming over." ”
Qian Ming was brought back by Liu Han from the Western Regions, among these subordinates of Liu Han, there are only thirty-six surnamed Liu, these thirty-six are Liu Han's guards, and the others are not surnamed Liu, they are called whatever they want, but some have long forgotten their original names, and this guy is too lazy to use his brains, so he named them according to the surnames of Zhao Qiansun and Li Si, this Qian Ming is like this.
Qian Ming came over quickly, this Qian Ming is in his thirties, he was already in his twenties when he was with Liu Han, he has been by Liu Han's side for seven or eight years, he has not been to Guzang for an internship, but he has interned in other places, and his performance has made Liu Han more satisfied, but he has not let him out, because he always feels that he lacks a little decisiveness, so he can't be alone.
"Before Yang Qiu comes back, you will first take on the burden of the Chang'an store, can you do it?"
Qian Ming didn't answer immediately, after being by Liu Han's side for a long time, I understand his way of doing things, your answer can not be in line with his ideas, and you can even argue with him, but the premise is that you must talk about things on a case-by-case basis, and you can't be vain and deceive, on the contrary, if you persuade him, you will appreciate you more.
"I'm not familiar with Chang'an, if the lord hands over Chang'an to me, I ask to keep Yang Qiu, and in addition, there is a person from the guards who will be the head of the caravan. ”
Liu Han frowned and looked at the courtyard, and there was a faint noise from the adjacent courtyard, it seemed that after the second shopkeeper went out to convey that he could leave tomorrow, those guys were a little happy and out of shape. The corners of Liu Han's mouth showed a sneer, he didn't think it was good to be a slave to the Fu family, at least he was much better for his subordinates.
"Why?" asked Lao Huang.
"Yang Qiu is familiar with Chang'an, and can assist me in taking over the market and minimizing the losses in the handover," Qian Ming said: "Secondly, I don't understand what happened to the shopkeeper, but Chang'an is uneasy, and I need to have strong support." ”
After finishing speaking, Qian Ming bowed down and bowed again: "Master, I think Yang Qiu should be in charge of Chang'an, I can be the second shopkeeper, and in addition, I also need to have an account room." ”
Lao Huang didn't speak, quietly looked at Liu Han at the door, Liu Han put his hands behind his back, looking at the dark night sky, but his heart was very complicated, Qian Ming's request was reasonable, once they left, the Fu family would take those actions, would they jump over the wall in a hurry and attack their caravan outside the plug, so it was necessary to strengthen the strength of Chang'an Store.
What made Liu Han most angry was that Bi Liang made this play, and the entire Chang'an store had to be re-examined, which took a lot of time.
