Chapter 79: Rongcheng Commander(1/3)
"Uncle, look, the store in front of you that is being renovated is the store that Qiu Sheng is planning to open."
Zhang Heng, Jiu Shu, Wencai.
The three of them walked together and arrived in front of Qiu Sheng's shop.
Because it is still being renovated, the shop looks a bit messy.
In addition to Qiu Sheng, there were seven or eight workers busy, and the whole house smelled of new furniture.
"Master, why are you here?"
Qiu Sheng looked outside and saw Zhang Heng and others, and he was very happy to greet them.
“This place is not small!”
Uncle Jiu walked around the store.
"It's not small. It's thirty steps forward and backward and fifty steps left and right. There's a backyard at the back and a second floor above."
Qiu Sheng introduced Uncle Jiu: "After this place is built in the future, I plan to set up twelve sets of counters on the first floor to sell some mid-range rouge, gouache, sachets, purses, and some foreign gadgets."
"The second floor will be turned into a private room to entertain distinguished guests."
"When a distinguished guest comes, you don't have to wander around like ordinary people. When you go to a private room, a maid will bring something to you for the distinguished guest to see in person."
Qiu Sheng followed Uncle Jiu and explained.
Hearing such words, Uncle Jiu had an unreal feeling and couldn't help but ask: "Does it take a lot of people?"
Qiu Sheng said happily: "I have calculated it. At the beginning, two people will be responsible for one group of counters, and about eight people will be enough."
"If the business is booming in the future, I'm afraid the number of people will have to be doubled, but in terms of labor expenses, it won't actually cost much."
"I don't want men here, I only want female clerks."
"In charge of food and accommodation, and if you give me half a piece of ocean every month, there will be many people coming to every village in the ten miles and eighty miles."
These days, there are not many factories, and there are even fewer places to recruit female workers.
If you have a girl at home, you can just cook, wash clothes, and cut pig grass at home. You have no place to go out to make money.
Taking care of food, accommodation, and transportation, it's definitely a good job to steal your brain.
Let's not talk about it. If you do it for a year, you will still have five yuan. If you buy more later, you will be able to add three little piglets to your family in the spring.
You know, it's a big deal for a family to be able to raise three pigs at home these days.
"Brother Heng is here. Are you thirsty? I'll get you some tea."
After walking around for a while, Qiu Sheng's aunt also came.
Qiu Sheng's aunt looks to be in her fifties, on the fat side, wearing a green cheongsam and heavy makeup on her face.
As soon as she saw Zhang Heng, Qiu Sheng's aunt became so enthusiastic that she didn't even care about Uncle Jiu who was standing next to him.
Because she had already asked, even the purchase of the shop and the goods were all paid by Zhang Heng, and she lent Qiu Sheng a thousand oceans in one go without any interest.
From now on, this single-family two-story building at the intersection of Renjia Town will be Qiu Sheng's property.
With this shop here, let alone selling rouge, it just sells nothing. It just collects rent every year and I starve to death.
Now that the financial sponsor is here, who can care about Uncle Jiu? Does Uncle Jiu have such a big deal?
"Auntie, you don't have to be busy, my uncle and I can just take a look."
Zhang Heng was a little uncomfortable with Aunt Qiu Sheng's enthusiasm.
Because she comes from a womanly family and doesn't understand the relationship between senior brothers.
In her opinion, this is Qiu Sheng climbing a high branch.
But in Zhang Heng's view, the return on his investment in Qiu Sheng was far more than a thousand oceans.
In the future, when people like Qian Shui, Zhang DaDa, Qiu Sheng, and Wen Cai grow up, they will be his good helpers.
As the saying goes, there are three gangs of heroes. Master and the others will eventually grow old, and the future depends on the young people.
With the support of this group of people, he will surely have a place among the top leaders of Maoshan in the future.
Even if you say something unpleasant, you won't be able to choose him or not when the time comes.
If you don't choose, you will cause division.
In the end, a new Maoshan was created, and the founder lost face.
Don't think this is alarmist, you must know that during the Tang and Song Dynasties, the Jingming Sect split into the Lushan Sect because of this kind of thing, and people's heads were beaten into pig heads.
At the end of the quarrel, even the ancestor of the upper world was alarmed and issued a decree saying "the tree will be divided into large branches".
Fortunately for this decree, otherwise he would have to fight to the death like the two Sword Qi Sects of the Huashan Sect.
"Not bad."
“It’s a big place and it’s right on the street. It’s a good place.”
Uncle Jiu turned around a few times, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became: "It's done very well."
As he spoke, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but stop and said to Qiu Sheng's aunt: "Qiu Sheng is not young anymore."
The aunt nodded and sighed: "Twenty-four is not too young."
In ancient times, people got married early, and many people got married in their teens.
Those who did not get married at the age of 24 or 5 are just like those who did not get married at the age of 34 or 5 in later generations. Even in a big city, you should get married at this age.
"It's time to arrange a marriage for Qiu Sheng later."
Uncle Jiu knew what Qiu Sheng was thinking about his aunt.
She didn't want Qiu Sheng to practice Taoism all his life, so she kept trying to arrange things for him about his wife.
It's just that these days, we pay more attention to the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers.
Qiu Sheng has no parents and works as a handyman in Yi Zhuang, so he is not considered a good in-law.
In the end, several matchmakers failed, and the daughter of a good family refused to marry him at all, saying that he grew up in Yizhuang and was full of bad luck.
The not-so-good ones are not so particular, but Qiu Sheng is also very picky. One moment he said that the girl was not good-looking, and the other moment he said that the girl had body odor, but failed three or five times.
"It should, it should."
The aunt looked back at the shop that was being renovated and choked with sobs: "Qiu Sheng finally has a family and can marry a wife."
Hearing the cry, Qiu Sheng looked helpless: "Aunt, why don't I have a home? Yizhuang is my home, and your home is also my home."
It was okay if I didn’t say this, but my aunt cried even more sadly when she said this: “It’s different!”
Yizhuang is Jiu Shu's home.
In the eyes of my aunt, Qiu Sheng is just an apprentice who works under Uncle Jiu and makes a living with Uncle Jiu. How can Uncle Jiu's home be his home?
As for her.
She also has a family at home, and Qiu Sheng lives with her on weekdays and helps look after the store, which makes her husband's family very unhappy.
Therefore, these two places are not Qiu Sheng's home, he is just living under the shelter of others.
Just because she thought of this, my aunt couldn't help but cry.
She cried not because she was sad, but because she was happy for Qiu Sheng.
With this shop, Qiu Sheng can marry a wife, and he will have a family in the future.
aside.
Zhang Heng saw everything with his eyes.
Different from the laughter shown in movies, reality is reality after all. After the laughter, you are faced with daily necessities.
On weekdays, Qiu Sheng smiles all day long and plays with Wencai, but who knows how much pain is hidden deep in his heart.
In the dead of night, when he heard his uncle's family complaining about him, could he hold back his tears?
People always grow up day by day.
Mr. Zombie is a fantasy comedy film.
But behind the comedy, there is the sadness of people constantly cutting things off and making things confusing.
Zhang Heng watched with cold eyes.
From his perspective, without his intervention, both Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai would have ended in tragedy.
Uncle Jiu is getting older after all.
It is impossible for them not to grow up and hide under Uncle Jiu's protection forever.
"Fortunately, I have everything."
Zhang Heng's eyes flashed: "I bring the future."
noon.
The meal was very sumptuous, and Qiu Sheng was invited to eat together.
