Chapter 50 Innovation Mode
Chen Buyi looked at his old mother Liu, and felt infinite emotion in his heart.
I have only been away for more than a month. My mother's complexion looks much better, and the white hair on her head has almost disappeared. Sure enough, mood is very important.
The old butler Yang Zhong smiled and welcomed Chen Buyi in, holding the account book to report.
"Young Master, the 50,000 taels of silver I sold last time was deposited in Sihai Money House, with a monthly interest rate of one cent. After a month, I also had a revenue of fifty taels.
This month I spent twenty-two taels and twenty-eight taels of surplus."
Chen Buyi nodded with a smile.
"Very good, Uncle Yang, from this month, everyone's wages will double. Look at the arrangement."
Yang Zhong looked at Chen Buyi with a look of surprise. After a long time, he stood up and gave a deep bow, "Thank you, Master."
While talking, the old mother Liu walked in.
"My son, I heard that you were sent by the emperor to an imperial envoy, but what business did you do?"
Seeing Chen Buyi's confusion, Yang Zhong hurriedly explained, "Zhang Zijing came back and said."
So that's it, Chen Buyi smiled, "Mom, I'm just following the chores, how can I compare to Zhang Zijing?"
Liu sighed.
"That's true. The Zhang family was sealed by the emperor for another 500 acres of land."
After saying that, he shook his head, turned his face again, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, as long as you can come back."
The heart of Shen Buyi really feels bad, it’s so pitiful to parents all over the world.
As both imperial envoys, Zhang Zijing sealed 500 acres of land, but he only had a barren lake. If he said this, no one would understand it.
So, now I am too lazy to explain.
"Hey, old lady, just wait. Sooner or later, I will pick you up to live in Chang'an City."
Chen Buyi said with a smile.
This seemed to be the same style as my son, but the old lady felt at ease and walked out with satisfaction.
After sending away his old mother Liu, Chen Buyi made three rules with Yang Zhong, and asked him to send someone to Deyue Tower in Chang'an every three days to send a letter to Deyue Tower in Chang'an, explaining the specific situation of the family these days so that he could grasp it at any time.
The next morning, Chen Buyi set out on the road back to Chang'an again.
Looking at his son's figure as he was leaving, Liu sighed reluctantly, and he couldn't help but feel mom.
At this time, on the Chang County Tower, Zhang Zijing backed his hands, looked at Chen Buyi who was hurried away, and a sneer flashed across the corner of his mouth, "A silly bird, even though you are a sixth-class official, you are just a waste lake."
But I am different. My sister made the emperor happy, but I was awarded a reward of 500 acres of land.
Chen Buyi returned to Chang'an, which surprised him that Deyuelou's business was still booming, and the doubled price seemed to still not stop the enthusiasm of diners.
However, Niu Su's face didn't seem very good-looking.
"Uncle Niu, what's going on with you?"
"Young Master, tomorrow morning, you can tell if you follow me to the East City."
Niu Su said worriedly.
The next morning, Chen Buyi rushed to Dongshi with the cow speed.
The scene in front of him surprised him.
In front of Zhu Qiao and Gao Shi's stalls, there were few people.
It’s not that the live fish’s business is not good.
But because it was so good, there were more than a dozen stalls selling live fish on both sides of them.
In addition, he arranged for Jiang Pu to take people to learn fishing, and the daily supply increased, which invisibly increased the workload of Zhu Qiao and Gao Shi.
When you leave Dongshi, Shenbuyi is not in a relaxed mood. How to find a better sales route to fish and get rid of the restrictions of Dongshi is the key to the large-scale fishing in Qingguang Lake in the future.
Suddenly, the conversation between the two people before caught his attention.
The two middle-aged women in front were at first glance, and they were the ones in the house who were helping buy groceries.
"Sister Wang, it's really troublesome to pick up this live fish. It's jumping around and making it smell like fishy."
"Good sister, bear it. Who makes our master like to eat stewed fish? It is said that only fresh fish is delicious."
Yes, I took the live fish home from Dongshi, and it was a problem along the way. I might as well just take a takeaway model and deliver it to my door.
Yes, not only the residences of various princes and nobles, but also so many restaurants and hotels in Chang'an City, the business must be much worse.
Chen Buyi became excited immediately.
But who should be sent to do this?
He fell into deep thought. There seemed to be no such suitable candidate under his command. After thinking about it, he remembered someone.
In the evening, Chen Buyi was carrying a jar of old wine, and Feng Wu was carrying a food box behind him and appeared in front of the dilapidated temple five miles outside Mingde Gate.
Heard that Chen Buyi was coming, Zhou Gui hurriedly came out.
"Zhou Gui has met Mr. Chen."
Chen Buyi smiled slightly and raised the jar of wine in his hand, "Brother Zhou, would you like to have a drink with me?"
The call of Brother Zhou made Zhou Gui feel honored, and he was a little nervous when rubbing his hands.
"Young Master Chen, please, please, please, please."
The dilapidated temple is not as messy as expected. Although the people living in some big men, they are in order.
This made Chen Buyi feel a little more affection for Zhou Gui.
In the food box, one fried fish, one roast chicken, and a few braised dishes.
Chen Buyi poured a glass of wine and handed it to Zhou Gui.
Zhou Gui was flattered, took it with both hands, and said seriously: "Young Master Chen, if you have anything to say, just give me the order."
Chen Buyi poured himself another cup and held it in front of him, "Brother Zhou, as the saying goes, you will not go to the Three Treasures Palace without any trouble. I am here today and I have something to ask for."
Zhou Gui hurriedly greeted the wine glass and touched it gently, "Young Master Chen, but it's okay."
Chen Buyi took a sip of wine and said his idea of finding someone to sell live fish from house to house.
When Zhou Gui heard this, hesitated on his face, "Young Master Chen, I, Zhou Gui, have been living in Chang'an City for more than 20 years. I dare not say anything else. I promise that I can speak any house in the mansion, but I don't dare to make a promise if I want it or not."
"It's okay, it's okay, you just need to make a move. For every ten live fish sold, I'll give you two cents."
Chen Buyi smiled and poured Zhou Gui a glass of wine again.
"Mr. Chen, I don't want money."
Zhou Gui waved his hands repeatedly.
“No, I have to.
Your brothers need to eat too.”
When Chen Buyi walked out of the dilapidated temple, he felt much more relaxed.
The next day, Zhou Gui came as promised with seven or eight subordinates.
Chen Buyi prepared four fish tanks, and each fish tank had a lively carp.
When selling things, you have to bring some samples.
This is the best ingredient for making stewed fish.
I have to say that this week's Gui really didn't brag. In just three days, the daily sales reached thousands. At this speed, the entire Chang'an City would need at least three or five thousand sales per day.
Chen Buyi seemed to see the white silver began to wave to him.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival is already here.
The Mid-Autumn Festival in the Tang Dynasty was not as lively as the Mid-Autumn Festival in the present world. Although many poems describe the Mid-Autumn Festival, in fact, there seemed to be no other activities in the Tang Dynasty except for the moon viewing.
