Chapter 138: The Return of Wu Dalang (Part 2)

"There are three guards along the way, and Haogu is very grateful.

After you settle down, you will invite three of you to have a drink."

It was finally time to part with Lin Wancheng, Lin Chong and Lu Qian.

Zhang Xizai, who is currently in the accounting department, settled the salary for them the day before. Therefore, he entered Fengqiu Gate, when Wu Haogu broke up with these three bodyguards. The three of them lived in the north wing of the city of Kaifeng Prefecture, and as soon as they entered Fengqiu Gate, they were not far from home.

Lin Wancheng, Lin Chong and Lu Qian all said goodbye to Wu Haogu and others with joy. The father and son of the Lin family got "flying money" and finally saved enough money to buy a house! Now, the old Lin head was yelling at Wu Haogu and wanted to quit his military post tomorrow to carry a gun to defend Wu Dalang.

Lu Qian was also full of joy. Wu Haogu did not give him any good, but he was appreciated by the senior official Tong Guantong.

This is really climbing the ladder!

It seems that there is no need to betray Mrs. Lin Chong to please Gao Yanei...

Then, Wu Haogu’s two good brothers Guo Jing and Liu Wuji also went home to check out. Their residence was outside Anyuan Gate in the inner city of Kaifeng, near the north of the state.

"Dalang, I'm going to go back and see me and the girl."

Guo Jing reluctantly said goodbye to Wu Haogu.

"Dalang, I'm going too. I'll come to find you when I'm settled."

Liu Wuji did not say that he was going to Yihongyuan - Wu Haogu and Guo Jing both opposed his relationship with Yan Po'er in terms of face, so he was unwilling to say more.

Wu Haogu also bowed to the two good brothers: "Third brother, Xiao Yi, let's live here. You have been very tired after following me these days. After going back, I will have a good rest... Five days later, I will hold a drink in Fengle Tower, you must come."

"Okay, I'll definitely come."

"must."

Wu Haogu was preparing to invite many people to hold wine in Fengle Tower. Not only Guo Jing and Liu Wuji, but also planned to invite Pan Xiao'an, Mi Youren, Su Dalang, Gao Qiu and Ji Yi.

The purpose of Wu Haogu inviting them was to discuss investment and start a business together.

This joint stock trading company is the basis for Wu Haogu to do a big business and must be done well.

The difficulty of running a joint-stock business is not to find a profitable project. Wu Haogu has traveled through time in later generations, and has a unique skill in calligraphy and painting, so finding a project is not a problem. The problem is how to establish a relatively efficient "joint-stock company" in the Song Dynasty, which is the joint-stock business that Wu Haogu wanted to start.

There is no "Company Law" these days, nor the ready-made "Company Articles of Association" to be copied. Moreover, he did not study business in his previous life, and he had only seen the kind of company management.

Therefore, now he can only invite all the shareholders who may invest in it. Everyone discussed and did it. He had to come up with a "Article of a Joint Stock Commercial Bank" before he could start the commercial bank as required.

After entering Anyuanmen, I walked along Maxing Street for another period. When I arrived near Fengle Tower, Tong Guan also bowed to Wu Haogu, Ma Zhi and Mi Youren to say goodbye.

"Wu Dalang, second brother Ma, Mi Xiaoyi, our family is going back to the palace to report to the Empress Dowager, so let's not live here."

Fengle Tower, also known as Fanlou, is a view on Maxing Street. It consists of five buildings, southeast, west, north, and middle. Three floors are high, five floors face each other, flying bridge railings, and light and dark. The overall building is undulating, with eaves and corners intertwined, and it is magnificent. It is one of the best places to go to Kaifeng Prefecture. Donghuamen in the imperial palace is located on the west side of Fengle Tower.

It is said that on the third floor of Fengle Building, you can see the east edge of the palace from afar!

If such a building was in the Tang Dynasty, it would have been deposed by the emperor. However, it had been standing for so many years in the Song Dynasty, which was a miracle.

Now only Ma Zhi, Mi Youren, Zhang Xizai and Wu Haogu are left, leading the horse and walking on the Maxing Street. However, they will soon be separated. Wu Haogu will return to his home in the First Tianshui Lane, while Ma Zhi will live in Mi Youren's mansion, and Zhang Xizai will temporarily live in the Pan Family Calligraphy and Painting Chai.

"Brother Ma," Wu Haogu smiled at Ma Zhi, and said while walking, "You can talk to that big official Tong."

Ma Zhi smiled, "To be honest, I often heard people say in the Northern Dynasties: The Southern Dynasties' civilized governance was prosperous, but the martial arts strategy was insufficient. Men all cared for brushes and abandoned their swords, which was worse than those of the Northern Dynasties' women. However, after seeing this Tong Daguan, I knew that those words were nonsense. The eunuchs in the Southern Dynasties were so well-known in military affairs, let alone the literati and officials?"

This horse plant...

Wu Haogu was speechless after hearing what Ma Zhi said.

The scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty were better than Tong Guan, but they could indeed restore Yan and destroy Liao.

Seeing Wu Haogu a little disdainful, Ma Zhi thought he looked down on the eunuch, and smiled and said, "Dalang, I think this Tong Daguan is not a person in the pool. You must make friends with him in the future."

"Thank you, Brother Ma, for your reminder." Wu Haogu knew that the other party was thinking, but he still bowed to him. "Three days later, I will hold wine in Fengle Tower, so you and Yuanhui come together."

"Then you'd rather be respectful than obey."

Wu Haogu looked around and was about to walk to Panlou Street. He said to Mi Youren: "Yuanhui, I'll leave it to you, take him to have a good tour in Kaifeng Prefecture City. Let's see you in three days.

Tingyang, please send Brother Ma to the Mi Mansion for me."

...

After breaking up with his good student Mi Youren, good friend Ma Zhi and accountant Mr. Zhang Xizai, Wu Haogu walked to his small shop on Panlou Street alone.

At this time, Panlou Street was extremely lively, with food stalls everywhere, with fragrance everywhere and shouting one after another. This lively atmosphere was no less than the downtown commercial street of the metropolis in later generations.

Wu Haogu has been in the house for almost one morning and has been a little hungry. He doesn’t want to go to the restaurant to eat. He just wants to buy some snacks on Panlou Street and go back to his own nest, which is to have a beautiful meal in Wujia Painting Zhai.

In his memory, there are too many such scenes... it seems that it is the real life, and everything now is like a dream.

Walking to a shop selling soft sheep noodles with the smell of mutton soup, Wu Haogu was about to ask the boss to bring him a big bowl, but suddenly his eyes swept the door of his shop. The door that should have been closed at this time was opened at some point. A slightly fat, older man was standing with the door frame. It was Wu Haogu's father Wu Chengzhi.

"Dalang! Is it you?"

"Father, it's the child."

Wu Haogu didn't care about buying noodles anymore and hurried over.

"Dalang, you are back!"

Wu Chengzhi looked at the eldest son who had not seen for many days, with a few tears in his eyes, but he still squeezed out his smile.

"I've lost weight, dark, but I've become energetic and promising..."

I don’t know if there is a lot of emotions for my father left in this body. When Wu Haogu saw Wu Chengzhi, he couldn’t help but cry.

"Father, baby, baby... I've been away from home for too long. Is the home good?"

"Okay, everything is fine." Wu Chengzhi tied the horse he was holding to a horse tying post standing at the door of the store, and then pulled his son into the store.

When I walked into the shop, Wu Haogu suddenly found that the shop was full of calligraphy and paintings, most of which were of good quality. Some should be made by famous artists in the world, and some were ancient paintings and pastels or high-quality imitations.

Obviously, Wujia Painting Zhai's business has also been greatly improved because of its own fame.

"These days, the business in the shop has been booming. Many famous painters in Kaifeng Prefecture are willing to send the paintings here for consignment... There are also several times more customers than in the past. Oh, by the way, there are still many people coming to ask for paintings. If you can block them, you will block them for you. If you can't block them, you will collect deposits. Now you have collected about 50,000 yuan..."

"More than 50,000?" Wu Haogu took a breath, "When will it take to draw it?"

"It's not much, but thirty or forty... By the way, Ji Yizhi Ji Daguan ordered ten pictures by himself, and I don't have the nerve to push them."

"It's okay," Wu Haogu smiled, "his business needs to be done.

By the way, Pan Shiba is back, right? How is she doing now?"

"Miss Pan..."
