Chapter 175 Preparation


When Zhou Xu'an left two days ago, except for the small discomfort of not being able to send him off, Chun Yu had no time to think about anything else because she had to put her mind in order and plan her business.

Yesterday, Guo Lin asked a letter saying that he had told Chun Yu about it with the classmate with whom he had a background relationship, and that he had made an appointment to meet Chun Yu at Yuchuxiang Restaurant.

Chunyu held a banquet in the private room on the second floor and invited Guo Lin's two classmates to dinner.

It turned out that Zhang Yun, Guo Lin's classmate, was actually the youngest son of the cousin of the Empress Dowager Zhang.

He had been smart and loved since he was a child, and was loved by his family.

He and his sister Zhang Xuanying often went to the palace with their second cousin's aunt and mother to pay their respects to the Queen Mother.

His second cousin's aunt was Liu Zhang, the wife of Shouninghou, the biological brother of Queen Mother Zhang, and she was also a relative of the Dragon and Tiger General Liu Xianfeng. younger sister.

Chunyu thought it was quite a coincidence.

She remembered that Zhou Mengya said that she had a good friend Chu Leyu, who was Liu Xianfeng's direct granddaughter.

Although this has nothing to do with her, it still makes her feel that the aristocratic circle in the capital is really small, and everyone is related to them.

Although Zhang Yun was a son of an aristocrat, he was not a dandy at all.

Instead, he was diligent, studious, and helpful.

He met Guo Lin at a poetry gathering, and they had a good conversation and made friends.

This time, I heard that Guo Lin's friend wanted to ask for something, so he came without saying a word.

When he saw Chun Yu, he was stunned for a moment and then smiled heartily.

He also said that he thought he was a literary friend, but he didn't expect that he was a confidante, which made Chun Yu very angry.

However, things went smoothly.

Zhang Yun's father happened to be working as a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and his sister Zhang Xuanying married the youngest right servant Zhao Zhengzhi as a stepmother.

With these connections, Zhang Yun's relationship in the Ministry of Household Affairs can be said to be very strong.

Moreover, the Ministry of Household Affairs was originally in charge of the country's territory, fields, household registration, taxation, salaries and wages, and all financial matters.

The Minister was in charge of accounting and statistical work such as auditing printing and registration, collecting taxes and servitude, etc.

His daily work includes clearing wasteland for immigrants and recruiting and resettling refugees.

Based on the fish scale atlas and the yellow book, we restrained the annexation of wealthy people; restricted the land to punish the heretical people; used arboriculture to teach agricultural officials; used grassland to raise horses for grazing; used electric seeds to recruit tenants to make the most of the land; and compensated for many years of accumulated debts.

Grant exemptions based on circumstances; based on provincial revenue and expenditure situation, adjust surplus and vacancies; reduce and exempt servants; provide pensions and relief to the poor and elderly in disaster areas, and rewards for meritorious service; measure market purchases and evaluate prices; levy taxes on mountains, rivers, ponds, customs, and mines; support military operations , supervise water transportation, support and transfer crops.

Open the center with a solid edge. and official salary payments; regularly compile household registers, adjust households, etc.

With such a good background, Chunyu also thought that she would need it in the future, so she thought of giving money to Zhang Yun.

Ask him to help smoothen the relationship so that the car dealer can get a formal business registration.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yun refused, but it was not a refusal to help but a refusal of money.

This made Chunyu confused, but Guo Lin smiled and said that he had won a set of ancient She inkstones before, and Zhang Yun wanted it very much.

Just give it to him.

Another thing that makes Chunyu very happy is that Zhang Yun is also a very cheerful person.

He didn't ask Chun Yu and the others what kind of sound they made, and just said that when they needed to register as merchants, they could just contact him.

After dinner, after Chunyu sent Guo Lin and his two classmates away, she and Zhang Huzi still couldn't believe that they didn't spend a penny.

Even if the matter is initially resolved.

After all, the inkstone given to Zhang Yun was won by the Guo Lin Poetry Club, and there was no need to pay for the Yuchuxiang restaurant, because Zhou Xu'an opened the Yuchuxiang restaurant just to be close to Chunyu's family.

It was nice to have someone taking care of me in the restaurant, from the shopkeeper to the cook, waiter and handyman.

No one inside knows that the girl Chunyu in the convenience store opposite is the future mistress.

After Chunyu and Zhang Huzi returned to the store, they took out the account books.

Except for the two hundred taels of silver notes left in Chun Yu's hand, they only had 800 taels of working capital left, and Guo Lin also invested at most two hundred taels.

One hundred taels, the total is one thousand taels.

They were going to drive to the outer city this time.

If they wanted to buy a shop, the one thousand taels would be a big difference.

In addition to the investment in the rickshaw, all they could do was rent a house temporarily.

Thinking that they would first go to find the White Tiger Hall of the Jinghuai Gang, Chun Yu and Zhang Huzi discussed it and decided that instead of going to Wu San's dental shop, they would first go to the Huxiang Tower near the Shanchuan Altar that Ah Cai told Chun Yu. .

The Shanchuan Altar is a little west of Yongding Gate, but Chunyu and his family are located in the old city outside Guangqumen and Zuo'anmen.

If you want to save some walking, you have to enter the city and go directly through the outer city.

The east and west streets in the center are quite close.

So after studying the route and telling Chuntao and Zaoer, Chunyu and Zhang Huzi set off for the outer city.

Chunyu and Zhang Huzi also took a special look at the scene from East Street to West Street.

They found that East Street was obviously more prosperous than West Street, and the rich and aristocratic people also concentrated in the East City.

Just like the Zhou Mansion, there are more people gathered at Guangqumen, Dongbianmen and Chongwenmen.

As for Chun Yu in the inner city, she wouldn't even think about it.

Zhou Xu'an had told her before that the Zhou Mansion could buy a mansion in the inner city later, but there was no reason.

It was because there were too many dignitaries and princes in the inner city.

People living there are sometimes cautious about traveling.

For example, when the emperor's relatives travel, the common people and officials with lower rank have to give way, which is very inconvenient.

But the outer city is different.

It is relatively free, not to mention there are not so many rules.

Although ordinary people still try their best to enter the inner city, hoping that they can meet a relative of the emperor when they walk on the street.

Yes, but ordinary nobles prefer to live in outer cities.

When Chun Yu and the others arrived at West City, Chun Yu saw that there were actually more people here than in East City, but the prosperity was incomparable.

The East and West cities are like two groups.

The people here in the West City seem to be a place where the three religions and nine streams are concentrated, and the traffickers and pawns are more concentrated.

Although it seemed a bit noisy, Chunyu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Brother Huzi, it's absolutely right for our car dealership to be built here."

Chunyu said happily.

Zhang Huzi, who was paying attention to the surrounding environment, smiled and nodded after listening to Chun Yu's words.

He thought the same.

Although the environment here is not as prosperous as that in Dongcheng, it is more crowded and lively, and the housing and land prices must be much cheaper than that in Dongcheng.

While walking and talking, the two finally saw the distant shadow of Shanchuantan.

There was a street lined with shops, and there were also many restaurants and inns standing among the dense shops and residential houses.

Some of these restaurants and inns are larger in scale, and some are connected to several floors.

Some of them are said to be able to see the Forbidden City and the Imperial Palace from a distance from the top floor.

But in the end, it is really It is unknown whether it is fake or not, because the government has banned people from climbing the tower to look out. fff5601211
