Chu Huan wanted to run a store, but suddenly she had a whim.

He made a fortune in Xiliang. If the wealth in his hand was used to live at home, it would never be used up in his lifetime. Although he had never cared about these things, he was not worried about money subconsciously.

But today, when I saw the wealth piled up in the house at Bai Xiaozi, I felt that I needed to do something in my heart.

As he said, although the salaries of officials are not too small, they are never rich. For example, he not only has the salary of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, but also has been granted the title of earl. With this title alone, he can also receive a lot of salary. In addition to the expenses in the mansion, it is naturally no problem to raise more than a dozen people.

But if he is in the officialdom for a long time and deals with more situations and relying solely on his salary, he will be in a short position. Although he has huge wealth in his hand, if he inadvertently reveals his wealth, it will inevitably attract the attention of many people.

Chu Huan knew very well. He was in the limelight several times in the court, but many of his eyes were always staring at him. On the surface, he seemed calm, but Chu Huan had no doubt that someone had been watching his whereabouts.

Chu Huan was born in a poor family and unlike many officials, he had an industry at home. For most officials, his salary was optional. His main source of family income was stores that were secretly operated, and some were rent collected on real estate, and they had enough money to squander.

Chu Huan now has no land and no shop. If he inadvertently shows his strong financial resources, he will be noticed and may even cause some people to investigate behind the scenes.

Chu Huan naturally didn't want anyone to do anything behind his back. He thought about it. If he could run two shops secretly in the capital, it would probably solve a lot of problems.

It is said that it is secretly that officials will not show up. In fact, behind half of the shops in the capital, there are court officials, and even the backstages of many stores, everyone knows it very well, but they turn a blind eye.

"If the adults really have this meaning, it's not impossible." Du Fugong thought for a while, "But, it's natural that the adults are not easy to come forward when running a store. The best way is to find a businessman who is good at doing business, and he will run it at the front desk. If the adults pay the money, they don't have to worry too much, just wait to collect the bonus."

Chu Huan laughed and said, "In this way, Mr. Du means that he thinks it is OK?"

"It's bustling, all for profit." Du Fugong looked calm, "Adults are in the Ministry of Revenue, which is to manage the world's money and food. It is naturally very easy to run a store in the capital, and there is nothing wrong with it."

His voice was calm. Although he said this, he was not very interested in this matter, judging from that meaning.

Su Niang couldn't help but say, "Master, do you want...you want to do business?"

"It's not that I do business, but that I'm asking others to help me do business." Chu Huan smiled, "Su Niang, what do you think? If you can really run two shops, the money you can control in the future should be surplus."

Su Niang heard that she could earn money, so she was not unhappy. She didn't understand why officials could not do business. She just thought that Chu Huan was working in the yamen and had no time to manage it. She just hesitated: "But where does our family have so much money to do business?" After a pause, she whispered: "When Mrs. Xue took me on a parade today, she passed a shop and told me that it was the store run by the Xue family. It was just that store, and they spent a lot of money."

Du Fugong nodded slightly, "If you want a prosperous business, you must naturally choose the locations of this store. Even if you can shout at those remote places, there will be no people, and the business will not be better. The first thing is to choose a good location, and good locations are all rushing to it. Who doesn't want to take it down? As far as I know, there are two streets away from us, and there is a street where shops are operated. There are dozens of shops on that street from beginning to end, and there are almost the shadow of court officials behind them. The goods sold are very expensive, but the business is excellent...!"

Chu Huanqi said, "We have such a street here too?" He only knew that this area was a place where officials lived, and most of them were the residences of dignitaries. "Aren't the best places in Sanyuanfang?"

"Sanyuanfang is naturally good." Du Fugong nodded and said, "But there are many people in Sanyuanfang, with many religions and ordinary people. Real dignitaries rarely go there. However, there are several streets in the capital, and the goods are ordinary, but the storefronts are luxurious and expensive. On the contrary, the places that dignitaries like, our Jinyu Street is one of them."

"Jinyu Street?" Chu Huan touched his chin. He felt a sense of luxury when he heard the name. He thought about it and suddenly remembered that he had been in Ximen Station for a while and vaguely remembered that there was such a Jinyu Street nearby.

"There are teahouses and restaurants on that street, including jewelry shops, calligraphy and painting shops, and rouge perfume shops." Du Fu said righteously: "If you can buy a store there and run a store, you won't lose money, but the capital is quite large. Compared with the price of stores in other places, the price here is much higher."

Chu Huan thought for a while and said, "Don't worry about silver. The emperor had rewards before. When he went to Xiliang to serve on a mission, he also received some rewards, including a total of 0,000 taels of silver."

Su Niang was worried that Chu Huan's idea was a bit unrealistic, and suddenly heard him say that he had several thousand taels of silver in his hand. She was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "Erlang, you... do you have so much silver?"

Chu Huan smiled and said, "I was going to hand it over to you, but it hasn't been taken into account yet."

Su Niang blushed, lowered her head and said, "What do I want to do so much?" But she was very excited to think that there was so much money at home.

"I don't have to worry about a few thousand taels of silver." Du Fugong nodded slightly.

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Although the location is good, Mr. Du also said that there are people behind the shops on that street. Since the business is booming, who is willing to sell the store?"

Du Fugong sneered: "I don't know that although there are dozens of stores on that street, there are more than a dozen stores, and there are only one person behind it. Even if this person doesn't want to sell the store, it won't be possible."

"Oh?" Chu Huan was stunned, blinked his eyes, and suddenly understood something, "Sir, are you talking about... Duke Anguo?"

Du Fu said justice: "My lord is indeed smart. Yes, Huang Ju should have eleven or two shops on Jinyu Street. Du heard that all the people in the Huang family were detained and imprisoned, and the mansion had been closed. It should be just a few days since the family was confiscated. These shops will eventually be copied... Once these shops are fired, they will naturally have to be re-stocked. Your Ministry of Revenue will naturally also ask about this matter..." He said this, and he would not continue.

His meaning was clear and clear.

After the Huang family was confiscated, all Huang Ju's property must have been gone. Although Huang Ju is only behind the scenes of those stores, since Huang Ju is involved, all of these stores will naturally be confiscated.

As Du Fu Gong said, not only the Huang family's wealth, but also many other officials involved in the rebellion, after counting their wealth, they will eventually be included in the treasury and flowed into the Ministry of Revenue. Chu Huan is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. It is really easy for him to get one or two stores on Jinyu Street.

Chu Huan understood what Du Fu said, and was already thinking about going to the Ministry of Revenue tomorrow to ask Lang Wuxu for such a thing. Now Lang Wuxu bowed to him. If you find Lang Wuxu in this way, Lang Wuxu must have done his best.

"Mr. I have been in Beijing for a long time and I am much more familiar with Beijing than me." Chu Huan smiled and said, "If I really set up a store in Jinyu Street, I wonder if I can help me find the shopkeeper?"

Du Fugong was stunned, as if he was a little surprised, and said, "Sir, did you ask me to help you find a shopkeeper?"

Chu Huan nodded slightly.

Du Fu said justice: "Sir, if you want to find a shopkeeper who is in an open manner, you must be your confidant..." Fu Xu said: "I'm afraid I can't do this for you."

Chu Huan laughed and said, "Mr. Du thinks I don't trust you?"

Du Fugong frowned, glanced at Su Niang, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Du is not enough to make the adults trust. This matter... Adults should go and search for it yourself. Du can only do his best to make the account for the adults."

Chu Huan thought about it, but said nothing, and stood up and said, "I won't disturb you in this way." He said to Su Niang, "Su Niang, let's go and have a meal first, I'm a little hungry!"

Su Niang hurriedly got up and followed Chu Huan. The two were about to go out, but Du Fugong finally said, "Sir, wait!"

Chu Huan stopped and turned around.

"When Ouyang was alive, his salary was not high, and there were many people who joined him, and there were many servants under his sect." Du Fugong pondered for a moment and finally said: "He also has a store in Beijing, which is not large in scale, but the shopkeeper is very good at doing business and earns a lot of money for Ouyang every year. Moreover, although this person is a businessman, he knows progress and retreat, knows how to behave and values ​​friendship...!"

Chu Huan asked, "Where is this person now? Can you help me find him?"

"I can do nothing, but lord should have a way." Du Fugong looked at Chu Huan and said, "After Ouyang was killed, his property was confiscated, and the store was also confiscated... Shen Wansi is the shopkeeper, and was beaten to Ouyang's accomplice, and was also arrested by the Ministry of Justice. I visited his home the day before yesterday. He was an orphan and widowed mother. Shen Wansi is still in the prison. If the Ministry of Justice gives, he can redeem Shen Wansi with 500 taels of silver, otherwise...!"
