The heavens start with letting the bullets fly

Chapter 830 Big Dragon Head

Seeing that Zhang Shuye and his group were not interested in taking over, Lehe said that he was familiar with the inn nearby, so he could get a discount if he led everyone there. Watching everyone wandering around, according to his words: "We are doing business in an orderly manner here. A drug dealer named Ximen Qing used to set up a trap here, but he only did it once and was immediately escorted to the coal mine. If you work, you will work until you die in this life. The entire Ximen family was ransacked, and his concubines took advantage of others..."

"Master Biao did this, and those green forest heroes dare not speak up?" A servant asked pretending to be surprised.

"So what about the heroes in the green forest? How arrogant is Liangshanbo in the east? As a result, three hundred and six thousand were beheaded by Mr. Biao three months ago. Now Mr. Biao is the leader of the entire Jingdong Road. The land dragon king is not white. Call! Who dares to torment the rules set by his old man?" Le He said very truthfully.

"The road here has cost a lot of effort. This side is okay. It is a gravel road. There is a road for bullock carts and bluestone slabs. There are two villages nearby. The job of building and protecting roads is no worse than farming..."

"These small courtyards are the residences of shopkeepers in the market. The courtyards are not big, and there are many rooms separated into them. Anyway, there are people who do work, and a place to sleep is enough."

This Lehe is very familiar with this market, and his eloquence is also good. He really knows everything and can sing a few words casually. The neighbors in the house are cleaner, but after talking like this, I found that this is not an ordinary town,
"This Pantuo Road market is really a simple market, a place for doing business." Zhang Shuye made a judgment.

"Master Biao said, this should be called a commercial development zone." Le He said with a smile.

After walking around again, I saw a big house, a large wooden shed was built in front of the courtyard, and several large black wooden boards were standing. Two young men were brushing off the white letters smeared on the wooden boards with a brush, surrounded by a group of people. The people who help the accountant to dress up, seem to have pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and they are all chatting with acquaintances,
Seeing this scene, Le He said with a smile: "You came by coincidence, sir. This is the scene of the Pantuo Road market. It seems that this is the only place in the world. Today just happened to catch up."

After saying this, Le He looked up at the sky, and said with a smile, "Just wait here for a while."

At this time, the sun was setting and the sky was going to be dark. Someone picked out a lantern from the house to make this side brighter. Lehe pointed and said: "This big house is the exchange of the market. Everything in the salt market is managed in this courtyard, and the prices of all bulk goods in the entire market are determined from here."

"Here is Xu Guanzhong, the master of the world who was invited by Master Biao himself to the Daming Mansion. He has dozens of accountants and hundreds of clerks under him. They are busy all the time. I heard that even Master Biao’s Zhuangzi and other businesses are settled here.”

"Xu Guanzhong is here too?" Zhang Shuye was suddenly surprised.

Although he is in the officialdom, he has a wide range of knowledge. He has heard the story of Xu Guanzhong, the former military champion, who only served as an official for a year or two, then abandoned his official position and became a hermit in Daming Mansion.

He also heard that this Xu Guanzhong is proficient in military art, martial arts, and strategy. He knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.The most rare thing is a deep understanding of the geography of the world.

Now he actually became a big manager?

Isn't it Qu Cai?

Zhang Shuye smiled and said: "I heard that Xu Guanzhong is very talented and involved in everything. Now he is only a chief executive, can he continue?"

Le He smiled and said: "I heard that Manager Xu said that sitting here for three to five years and grasping the price of sky-high goods is more successful than being a planner in the capital. Besides, Manager Xu is not just a planner of Master Biao, but also People like Guan Zhong and Kong Ming..."

At this moment, there was a sound of horseshoes.

The sound of horseshoes stopped at a nearby intersection, and the rider immediately got off his horse and ran over quickly. He was carrying a leather bag, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the leather bag. A capable steward stood between the blackboards. While waiting for the rider, the rider handed the leather bag to the steward, and the steward took a notebook and looked at the leather bag.

"The wax paint is different every time. If it doesn't match, I won't open the pocket." Le He whispered, and there were already many people around, many of whom were watching the scene curiously, and some were holding paper in their hands. Pen, staring nervously at the scene in front of him.

The steward opened his pocket, took out a few sheets of paper filled with words, looked at it under the light, and began to recite aloud: "One stone of refined salt."

Every time he read one, the boy under the blackboard would write on it with a pen dipped in lime water, and the accountants below also quickly recorded it, and many people in the periphery also wrote it down there.

"Every three days, fast horses come from Yingtianfu. The price of the bulk goods will come from there. This side will set its own price. The price of the salt goods will be passed on from Feige in Yangzhou. , With this fair price, the surrounding merchants will come here to buy, and everyone is willing to come here to sell, so don't worry about being fair!" Lehe explained there.

Yingtian Mansion was the Nanjing Mansion of the Great Song Dynasty, very close to the capital, so the prices of various bulk goods are very representative.

The prices of food, cloth, and various bulk groceries are written on the blackboard.

After everything was reported, the accountants who recorded the records quickly cleaned up, and then trotted away. There were people outside picking up their wooden boxes. It seemed that horses were not allowed here, so they had to run faster.

After reading these, the recorders on the periphery immediately ran to the blackboard, recorded the contents on the blackboard, and then left in a hurry.

"Don't look at the difference between sitting there and listening outside. Those who can sit down and listen to memorize, after getting the price, they have to discuss with each other, and set the price for the Beijing East and West Road. Standing outside I don’t have this qualification. The entire Beijing East and West Roads are sold at this price. It doesn’t matter if it’s high or low. I haven’t gone out to see the small ones. You have to do it." Speaking of this, Lehe had a proud expression on his face.

The big market at night is not completely dark, but lanterns are hung in front of every house, so that the neighborhoods everywhere are bright,

"We don't have a curfew at night. Senior officials, walk two streets forward, and this is the most fun place here. You can find everything you want to eat, drink and have fun. If senior officials feel lonely at night, there are also small ones in the dark. It doesn't matter, although our side is strictly prohibited, we can still find girls from Yangzhou." Le He smiled and whispered.

The lights in front were brightly lit, there was laughter, and the sound of silk and bamboo. Lehe seized every opportunity to matchmaking, wondering if he could make some money out of it, but Zhang Shuye had a dejected look on his face, and just said: "Just take us to find an inn." . . ”
