The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 180

Not to mention gossip, Xie Shen received the good letter and told the book boy Chen Hu'er: "Go to the tea shop and invite the eldest brother home. I will go to the Wang's house first, and I will come back soon!"

After finishing speaking, Xie Shen stepped out of the house in all directions, and went straight to Wang's house.

For him, the most important thing is not how much money he can make by selling Yuyao Xianming, but to open up business contacts in Hangzhou and even the entire Zhejiang Province.

Take Ning Yining Yuanwai as an example, at first Xie Shen only thought that Ning Yuanwai was a tea merchant, never thought that Ning Yuanwai was also in the salt industry.

This is the network and resources.It would be of great benefit to Xie Shen and even the Xie family if Ning Yuanwai made friends with wealthy businessmen like this.

Xie Shen came to Wang's house while cupping tea.When Menzi saw that Mr. Xie was coming again, he hurriedly went forward with a smiling face.

"Thank you, Mr. Hurry up!"

"Ah."

Xie Shen didn't want to talk to Menzi, he responded lightly and stepped into the mansion.

Bypassing Yimen, being led by the door all the way through the courtyard, Xie Shen came to Wang Shouren's small courtyard, and asked doubtfully, "Where is Mr. Wang?"

"Second master went to the capital yesterday. Before leaving, he told Mr. Xie that if he came to the mansion, he should just go to the eldest son."

Xie Shen nodded and stopped hesitating, and walked into the courtyard.

According to Wang Shouren's habits, he must be studying now, Xie Shen went straight to the study, and said indifferently: "Brother Shouren has not seen you for a few days, and he has become more elegant."

But he saw Wang Shouren standing in front of the book case, drawing a picture of himself, and when he heard Xie Shen come in, he put down his pen and said with a smile: "It's Brother Shen Xian who is here, sit down and talk."

Wang Shouren led Xie Shen to sit down on the beech wood south official hat chair, and said first, "Let Wang guess, brother Shen Xian came here this time to open a tea shop in Hangzhou."

"Brother Shou is really a god, Xie admires it!"

Xie Shen raised his eyebrows and said lightly.

"Haha, this isn't brother fool's magic trick. It's clear that brother Shenxian is going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. If you don't come here for this matter, what else can you do?"

Embarrassed by what Wang Shouren said, Xie Shen smiled coyly: "What Brother Shou said, can't Xie come to learn piano skills or compose poems with Brother Shou?"

Seeing Xie Shen talking about him from left to right, Wang Shouren only felt it was funny.

This Xie Shen looked mature and prudent, but he didn't expect to be so thin-skinned!

Wang Shouren coughed and said, "It's natural to learn the art of piano, recite poems and compose Fu, but let's discuss the business first."

"En." Xie Shen sorted out his thoughts, and then summarized a few words in Ning's letter to Wang Shouren, naturally skipping the part about Ning's salt sales.

"Oh, Ning Yuanwai is interesting."

Wang Shouren was quite surprised that Ning Yuanwai settled the relevant matters in such a short period of time.But since the Wang family wants to do business with Xie Shen in partnership, there are still some things that need to be discussed.

"The money has already been prepared. Before my uncle left Yuyao, he specially asked Wang to hand it over to Brother Shen Xian."

Xie Shen couldn't help frowning.

There are no ticket numbers in Ming Dynasty, and there are only banks at most.However, the bank does not have the function of large-amount currency exchange.This time the Wang family invested hundreds of thousands of taels, and it may be difficult to exchange them in Hangzhou through the bank.

But I was a little worried about letting my eldest brother bring so much money to Hangzhou Xie Shen.

As if seeing the doubts in Xie Shen's heart, Wang Shouren smiled lightly and said, "Why, Brother Shen Xian is worried about the inconvenience caused by too much money?"

Xie Shen nodded.There is a saying that if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves thinking about you.Big Brother brought so much money to Hangzhou, it was certain that he would be watched.

"It's quite simple. Brother Yu revises a book. You ask Brother Ling to go to Hangzhou to look for Fan Yuanwai, and ask him to withdraw the money to Brother Ling first. Brother Yu then order someone to give the money to Fan Yuanwai to make up for it some other day."

"It's so good, Xie, thank you, brother Shou!"

With the connections of the Wang family, it is normal to have a few hangzhou merchants. With the handwritten letter of Wang Shouren, the young master of the Wang family, it would not be a problem to borrow hundreds or even thousands of taels.

"The matter of money is a trivial matter. If you can't make money for a while, you can go to Fan Yuan's house to get it."

Wang Shouren had the implication that the name of the royal family was a gold-lettered signboard, which made Xie Shen a little embarrassed.

"Money should be enough. The tea is Yuyao Xianming. The tea is collected in Yuyao, and most of the money turnover is also in Yuyao. Brother, 1000 taels of silver is enough to go to Hangzhou."

What Xie Shen said was true, the 1000 taels brought by the Wang family's [-]% shareholding was more than enough.Xie Fang didn't need to bring too much cash to Hangzhou, but should leave most of the living money to settle with the tea farmers.

Compared with Qiantang Longjing, Yuyao Xianming has the advantage of low cost, which is also the core advantage of green tea.Coupled with Xie Shen's wonderful performances at the West Lake Collection, Yuyao Xianming is at least as famous as Qiantang Longjing.

Of course, Yuyao Xianming still has a long way to go, and it is impossible to reach the sky in one step.

After talking about the business, Xie Shen can finally talk about some light topics.

"Brother Shou, have you been practicing Danqing skills these days? These three years are a blink of an eye. Didn't you, dear Shou, make some preparations for the test?"

Although he knew that Wang Shouren was quiet and elegant, Xie Shen still didn't want him to be too idle.

In my impression, Wang Yangming took three general examinations before he was awarded Jinshi, which is really a bit miserable.

With Wang Shouren's reputation, he could almost be called the No. 1 scholar of the Ming Dynasty, but he couldn't pass the imperial examination in one fell swoop. Xie Shen couldn't help but sigh with emotion at the harshness and contingency of the Imperial Examination of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the arrival of Xie Shen may cause a butterfly effect. Maybe Wang Shouren will be on the list next time he tries?

Xie Shen is keen on the study of Ming history, and often reads some miscellaneous notes of unofficial history to check for omissions.Crazy about textual research, he once compared Wang Shouren and Tang Yin, two famous scholars, and found that Wang Yangming is really elegant, while Tang Yin is more deliberately elegant to others.

Thinking about it carefully, Wang Shouren's character is really not suitable for being an official, but if he is not an official, he will not be exposed to so many social realities, which is not conducive to the formation of Wang Shouren's later psychology.

This is really confusing.

On Wang Yangming's face, there was no trace of sadness or joy, and the conversation suddenly changed: "Those classics and historical articles have long been in the mind of Brother Yu, so what's the point of reading them again? Brother Yu's article style is like that, that is, writing No amount of writing can change it. Brother Shenxian, you should take a good look at the works of famous masters and come up with good articles. Brother Yu heard that the great master will not be in charge of Yuyao inspector to study politics in the near future, but the subjects before the provincial examination The trial will definitely come to preside over it. Brother Shen Xian, although you are winning small three yuan in a row, you have to be careful, don't be fettered by such small trials."

There is some truth to this, after all, there are too many counties in Zhejiang Province, if one inspects the academic administration one by one, the Grand Master will be at a loss.But the master of the scientific examination must preside over it, because it is related to the qualifications to participate in the provincial examination.
