The biggest boss of the two commercial houses suddenly ran to this small commercial house, and the old man was shocked at that time, he never thought that his small inn would come to the two giants of the commercial bank, and at this time he was kneeling or standing, so he was not embarrassed.
Suddenly remembered, and yelled at the few young people who had gathered behind him: "What are you still doing in a daze, don't you talk every day that if you can see Lu Xieban's Great Engong, it will be much better than kowtowing to wooden signs all day long, and you can't come to see the ceremony." ” When the guys who probed their brains heard that this was really the Lu co-organizer that everyone was offering in the house, they immediately rushed in one by one, knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Hanqiang from a distance, and called "Lu Bodhisattva, Lu Enren" one by one.
At this time, there was a riot in the restaurant full of diners.
Lu Hanqiang saw that his head was even bigger, and he pulled the old man and ignored the boys lying on the ground, and said anxiously: "Quickly take me inside and say, if you are here again, maybe there will be chaos." ” The old man immediately suddenly, without saying a word, pulled Lu Hanqiang into the inside.
Entering the inner room, looking around, it is a place where the country master stays, a plate of earthen kang in the south, and a rough benzene furniture on the ground against the wall in the north, but in the Buddha shrine seat in the north, outside the Guanyin Bodhisattva, there is a small wooden plaque, on which his name is written, and there are three pillars of incense in front.
Lu Hanqiang smiled bitterly, this is all made by himself, according to the words of the Northeast, then he is not adjusted to a certain extent.
At this time, a little girl was instructed to pour tea for the two, and then she flickered her eyes and lay behind the curtain to see this person who everyone worshiped like a bodhisattva, why did she always talk with a smile, and didn't say anything to her mother, as long as she pointed at the card, it would be rotten fingers.
Lu Hanqiang sat on the kang and took a sip of tea, then smiled and asked the old man standing in the middle of the ground: "You are the manager of this" "No, no, no."
The old man shook his hand again and again: "I am the chief manager of this place, his father." ” Lu Hanqiang hurriedly stood up and arched his hand: "Uncle please."
Then, without waiting for the old man to return the salute, he said, "Then where did the manager of this merchant inn go?"
The old man replied respectfully: "Yesterday I got a document from the Changping Commercial Bank, asking our business firm to purchase military supplies for the army, no, before dawn my son handed over the affairs of the business house inside and outside the business to the small one, and he went to keep an eye on those merchants to raise supplies."
Then he peeked at Lu Hanqiang: "If you don't look at it, you can't do it, if there is something undeserved in the materials, and you eat the brothers who pass by, then we are a big sin." ” Lu Hanqiang nodded in approval, and then said: "Since the manager is not here, then I will ask Dad, do you have a familiar tung oil shop and an iron shop, I want to buy 1,000 catties of tung oil and 5,000 catties of wrought iron." ” "If you don't dare to co-organize the title of adult, you can just call Xiao Lao'er Lao Li Tou."
Then he thought for a while and said: "There is a tung oil shop, this is in the city, I know two familiar iron shops, but you want too much wrought iron, they may not be able to have so much, besides, they have to make a little money, according to the opinion of the little old man, why don't I take you out of the city and go directly to the iron factory to see how it is" "There's also an iron factory here," Lu Hanqiang asked in surprise.
"Yes, the co-organizers live in the capital and don't know, since ancient times, this Huai has come out of iron, at its peak, there are thousands of people working in the iron factory, but these years are not good, and the people can't afford to buy ironware, so it has declined, but it is still working."
Lu Hanqiang nodded, "It's good to start work, then please lead the way, how about we go with us now?"
"No trouble, no trouble, this is a matter of course for the business bank."
In order to save time, Lu Hanqiang left a large cart for Zhao Zi to buy tung oil and silk.
After Lu Hanqiang's order was completed, Lao Li Tou took Lu Hanqiang out of the yard again, and ordered a clever junior to take Zhao Zi to buy tung oil, and he took the carriage brought by Lu Hanqiang and went directly out of the county to the iron factory.
The iron of the Ming Dynasty was no longer sold by the government, and iron smelting was mainly private, but according to the regulations, as long as the iron smelting factory paid 15% of the wrought iron to the imperial court, you could do what you wanted.
Later, Wei Zhongxian, a farmer, felt that the iron collected in this way was defective, so he simply stipulated that it was more cost-effective to collect money according to the output and then buy the iron himself.
Under such a relaxed policy, the smelting industry of Daming is quite developed, and the entire steel output is more than the total of the whole of Europe.
For example, the iron factory in front of me, which is said to have declined, is still billowing with smoke and dust, and the crowds are surging, and it looks like it is in full swing.
The housekeeper guarding the gate of the factory saw a group of people coming with a carriage and stepped forward to intercept him: "The iron factory is an important place, and idlers are not allowed to trespass." ” Lao Li hurriedly jumped out of the car and said to a leader-like person: "This manager, I am Lao Li, the father of Li Yicheng in the city, who brought us to your factory to buy wrought iron, and please inform your owner." ” The leader's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he looked at the five big cars behind Lu Hanqiang, who was curious, and knew that this was a big customer, so he immediately assigned a subordinate and rushed into the factory, and he came up to talk to Lu Hanqiang diligently.
During the greetings, I saw that the person who had just run in led a neatly dressed old man to greet him from inside with a smile, and he bowed to everyone from afar, "Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't stand outside the door, hurry inside."
Then he said to Lu Hanqiang suspiciously: "I don't know which distinguished guest this is, and I ask Brother Li to introduce me." ” Lao Li was busy introducing Lu Hanqiang to this person, only mentioning the surname but not the official body, and then the shopkeeper of the iron factory brought everyone into the field after talking for a long time.
After entering the factory, the leader took a few people to follow Lu Hanqiang's side, almost not leaving an inch, Lu Hanqiang understood a little, at this time, the technology is unique to each family, and it is also the foundation to ensure the longevity of his family, which is afraid that he will learn the skills secretly.
Lu Hanqiang said politely to the leader-like person: "I'll negotiate business with your shopkeeper, and I'll ask my brother to take care of my car." ” Only then did the leader relax his vigilance, and even after saying a good word, he took Lu Hanqiang's people to drink tea elsewhere.
Business is going very well, although Lu Hanqiang is a foreigner, but with Lao Li as a guarantor, he is not afraid that the government will find out afterwards that he sold iron to the gangsters, in the face of Lu Hanqiang, the big customer, the price is indeed fair, two cents lower than a pound of wrought iron and three cents of silver in the world.
Lu Hanqiang sold it for 5,000 catties, and at the same time, he unexpectedly bought good charcoal and charcoal here, that is, coal, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy.
After the delivery of the property, Lu Hanqiang said goodbye to the courteous shopkeeper and gave Lao Li a reward of five taels of silver, Lao Li said that he didn't want anything, and in the end it was Lu Hanqiang who forced him to be separated from him.
The brigade did not enter the city, and went directly back to the barracks. t1706231537:
