Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Hu Ping was excited: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely true!"

Of course Hu Ping was excited. At first he thought it was just a task assigned by Wu Xinjun, but he didn't expect that even the king would come to Pingkangfang to inspect and accept the work.

If this job is done well, Jane is in the heart of the emperor, and is afraid that she will not be successful in the future?

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Hu Ping to allow others to say that his political achievements are false.

Hu Ping directly took out a thick paper book from his sleeve: "Look, my lord, this is all the tax collection records in our Pingkangfang, and the exact amount of every household and every day is clear. , the whereabouts of every money can be found in the treasury, there is absolutely no lack of mistakes!"

When Hu Ping spoke, his voice was particularly high, and he was confident.

Zhao Wang took Hu Ping's ledger, and after looking through it, he became more and more surprised.

"In just one month, there are actually [-] merchants in Pingkang Square?"

This number is incredible. You must know that there are only [-] merchants in the entire East City.

Hu Ping said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't know, but whoever has some skills in Pingkang Fang didn't take the initiative to open a shop?

It is very convenient to open a shop at home without any rent, and sell it directly. "

Yes, the reason why the opening of Pingkangfang became popular in a short period of time is because this model is not much different from the street stalls of later generations. It does not require any stall fees, and it basically costs nothing. Just think Just do it.

Hu Ping said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, these five hundred merchants are only temporary, and it will be no problem to reach one thousand or two thousand merchants in a few months in the future!"

King Zhao was really surprised now.

After a while, King Zhao let out a sigh of relief and looked at Zhao Kuo.

"Wu Xinjun, I didn't expect your policy, it's really wonderful!"

Chapter 976

At this moment, King Zhao really admired Zhao Kuo in his heart.

A Pingkangfang was originally the most backward market in Zhao State, but in this short period of one month, it has undergone such radical changes.

King Zhao expressed emotion: "Originally, there were some people and widows who said that Mr. Wu Xinjun's main strength is in military affairs, and if you are asked to take the helm of Zhao as Xiangbang, I am afraid that there will be problems in internal affairs.

But now I have witnessed it with my own eyes, seeing that your ability in internal affairs is also so outstanding, I really admire you! "

The young King Zhao was arrogant and seldom admired others.

But this time, King Zhao was indeed convinced of Zhao Kuo.

Queen Li looked at Zhao Kuo with splendor in her pair of wonderful eyes, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

After Zhou Shaofen heard these words, his body was shocked, and his face was incomparably ugly.

Zhao Wang's words were obviously a compliment to Zhao Kuo, but they slapped Zhou Shaofen in the face like a slap in the face.

Sad.

Zhao Kuo himself was very calm, and even smiled: "Your Majesty praised it.

In fact, the minister is nothing, just want to do something for the people of our country of Zhao, to make everyone's life better. "

Zhao Wang said with emotion: "Yes, today the widow understands.

The thinking of the common people is very simple, whoever can make them live a good life, they can support whoever they want from the bottom of their hearts.

So Wu Xinjun, you have taught me another vivid lesson! "

After a pause, Zhao Wang said again: "This Lizheng, your name is Hu Ping, right?

Go, find a few more representative merchants, I want to meet them.

By the way, that Wu Fei who is lame in one leg is also coming, understand? "

Zhao Wang had heard Zhao Kuo tell the story of Wu Fei, so he was very impressed with Wu Fei, so he wanted to take a look at Wu Fei by name.

After a while, several selected merchants walked into the room tremblingly.

These merchants are either well-known in Pingkang Square who are eloquent and understandable, or are highly skilled and sought after by many consumers, and they are all capable people.

But at this moment, the merchants couldn't calm down at all.

The great king who ruled Zhao Guo high above, and Wu Xinjun, the reincarnation of the legendary Martial God Chi You, plus a group of unknown but high-ranking figures. These merchants have never seen so many big men in their lives.

Zhao Wang was not surprised by this, and this kind of situation has been seen a lot.

Zhao Wangdao: "Which one is Wu Fei?"

It's not a question, but Zhao Wang's eyes have actually been locked on Wu Fei, there is no way, Wu Fei is only present with a lame leg and crutches.

Sure enough, Wu Fei immediately said: "The young one is Wu Fei, who has seen the king."

Zhao Wang smiled and waved his hands and said: "Okay, you are inconvenient, don't be polite to the widow.

Come, tell me about your business this month, how you do business, how you make money, everyone wants to hear. "

Wu Fei was taken aback when he heard the words, and subconsciously looked at Zhao Kuo.

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "Just tell the truth."

So Wu Fei no longer concealed it, and honestly told the story of how he was saved, how he made tofu, and how he sold goods to make money.

After finishing speaking, Wu Fei also said with emotion: "The villain originally thought that he would die like this, and his wife and daughter might also be sold into brothels or become slaves, but God is sorry, Wu Xinjun not only saved the villain's life, but also saved the villain's life." Give the villain a whole new future.

The villain will definitely do his best in the future to repay Wu Xinjun and the king for their kindness to the villain! "

When Zhao Kuo heard this, he subconsciously glanced at King Zhao.

The main thank you here is actually Zhao Kuo. If Zhao Wang is careful and misses it, it will be a big trouble.

Fortunately, Zhao Wang obviously didn't notice this, but nodded and said: "Yes, you are considered a blessed one.

By the way, what is your monthly turnover now? "

Wu Fei thought for a while, and said, "The young one can make [-] servings of tofu a day, and a serving of tofu costs two dollars, so it can probably be worth a thousand dollars a day."

"One thousand dollars?"

Zhao Wang was also a little surprised: "You said one thousand dollars a day?"

Wu Fei nodded.

Not only King Zhao, but many ministers of Zhao State were also quite surprised when they heard this.

A turnover of [-] a day, isn't it [-] a month?

Zhao Guo's commercial tax this year is 1%, and the cost of making tofu is [-]%, so Wu Fei's net profit in a month can still be [-] yuan.

What is the concept of 1 yuan a month?

Simply put, this is higher than the salaries of many officials present!Li Zheng on the side also said quite proudly: "To tell you the truth, there are four merchants like Wu Fei in our Pingkang Square."

In fact, Wu Fei already belongs to that kind of top merchants, and he is the one who makes the most money. Not everyone can earn so much. Most Pingkangfang merchants usually earn hundreds or thousands of dollars a month. Put some money.

Zhao Wang nodded slightly, and said: "I didn't expect that you can make so much money by making tofu. It's very good. Now I'm really looking forward to what kind of taste your tofu will taste like."

As for Zhou Shaofen who was standing next to King Zhao, he already wanted to run away with oil on his feet.

Judging from the current situation, the bet between Zhao Kuo and Zhou Shaofen has officially been decided.

It was said before that the total income of the people in Pingkangfang should reach 1 yuan a month, but now Wu Fei has directly broken through to [-] yuan, which is far beyond the scope of the previous bet.

After Wu Fei, Zhao Wang asked several other merchants one after another, and the answers he got were all similar.

They were all the type who didn't have much money and couldn't afford to rent expensive stalls in Dongshi and could only work part-time for a living. After the new policy of Pingkangfang, they sold things at home and became more and more prosperous.

Except for the tofu seller at Wu Fei's family, there are also weavers, shoe sellers, and blacksmiths. Basically, there are all walks of life.

After the chat, the merchants left obediently.

Zhao Wang let out a long breath, looked around, and said: "It seems that not only the widows, but all of us have underestimated the power of Wu Xinjun's new policy."

Zhao Wang's emotion is very sincere.

At the beginning, King Zhao really felt that Zhao Kuo was messing around. Even after he came to Pingkangfang, King Zhao felt that it might be Zhao Kuo's secret assistance.

It wasn't until he came into contact with these merchants with his own eyes and heard their entrepreneurial stories one by one, that Zhao Wang suddenly discovered that Zhao Kuo was really just a guide.

Due to the previous policy that you must have a shop in Dongshi to do business, these merchants who are capable but lack funds have no way to take the first step.

Zhao Kuo's new policy is to untie this shackle for them and let them soar directly into the sky.

Faced with King Zhao's emotion, other Zhao officials also echoed.

"Yes, yes, I have served as an official in many places. It is a miracle that such an extremely backward place like Pingkangfang can turn things around within a month."

"I think I have my own way of internal affairs, but compared with Wu Xinjun, it's still insignificant, and it's far behind."

"Wu Xinjun governs internal affairs, he is too strong!"

"With the wise leadership of the king and the governance skills of Lord Wu Xin, why worry that our country of Zhao will not become stronger?"

All kinds of beautiful words are endless, almost drowning Zhao Kuo.

People, especially those in officialdom, are full of sloppy attributes.

The bet between Zhao Kuo and Zhou Shaofen had already been spread throughout Zhao Guo’s political arena under Zhou Shaofen’s vigorous publicity. In fact, many people present came with the mentality of “take a good look at Wu Xinjun’s joke today”.

However, what I never expected was that today, not only did it not become a joke of Wu Xinjun, but it also witnessed another political achievement of Wu Xinjun.

All I can say is, Lord Wu Xin is strong!Now that Wu Xinjun won, isn't it reasonable for everyone to praise Wu Xinjun and try to win Wu Xinjun's favor?

As for Zhou Qing's ugly face like a dead family member, I can only say, it's a pity, Zhou Qing, who made you not win?

Winner and loser, this is a principle that can be used in any situation.

Beside King Zhao, Queen Li was also smiling endlessly, her heart full of joy.

Queen Li hated Zhou Shaofen the most, and she wished that Zhou Shaofen would quickly fall from power, so this scene was really cool for her.

Queen Li coughed and said intentionally, "Your Majesty, since the matter in Pingkangfang has been settled, shouldn't some of the previous agreements be fulfilled?"

To everyone's ears, this sentence undoubtedly refers to the bet between Zhao Kuo and Zhou Shaofen.

But from Zhao Wang's side, there is actually another layer of meaning.

King Zhao and Queen Li actually had a secret bet.

Zhao Wang laughed loudly and said: "Indeed, since there is an agreement, it must be fulfilled.

Zhou Qing, your two houses in Handan City belong to Lord Wu Xin from today onwards! "

To Zhou Shaofen, these words were tantamount to a public execution. Zhou Shaofen's face was extremely ugly, but he still could only agree with his nose.

There is no way, even if Zhou Shaofen wanted to renege on his debt, King Zhao and Zhao Kuo would not agree.

Zhao Kuo coughed and smiled at Zhou Shaofen: "Actually, there is no shortage of housing, but since it is free, of course it is not for nothing. Thank you Zhou Qing."

This wave is nothing more than an obvious public slap in the face.

Zhou Shaofen only felt his throat heat up and down, as if blood was about to come out of it, and it took a lot of effort to suppress it.

Just a little bit, Zhou Shaofen was so angry that Zhao Kuo vomited blood on the spot!On the other side, although King Zhao also lost the bet with Queen Li, he was still in a good mood.

In Zhao Wang's view, Queen Li's so-called bet is nothing more than a matter between the bed.

Zhao Wang likes to try new things very much!Zhao Wang said to Zhao Kuo: "Wu Xinjun, after today's on-the-spot investigation, I feel that there is really no big problem with the policy reform of your street-facing shop.

Let's do this, or start tomorrow and officially promulgate it in the entire country. "

As a young man, Zhao Wang has a very prominent characteristic of young people is decisiveness, so after confirming that Zhao Kuo's policy is indeed useful, he immediately wants to promote it.

However, what Zhao Wang didn't expect was that Zhao Kuo actually said no.

Zhao Kuo said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, but I think it's better to take it step by step.

After all, this is a new policy. People in Handan City may know about Pingkangfang, but Pingkangfang has only appeared for a month after all.

As for the outside of Handan City, most of the people of Zhao Kingdom don't know Pingkangfang, let alone how Pingkangfang works, how can the effect of Pingkangfang be replicated?

By that time, I am afraid that things will backfire. "

King Zhao paused for a moment and said, "It seems to make sense.

So, Wu Xinjun, what is your plan? "

Zhao Kuo said: "My minister's plan is to give Pingkangfang three months to make Pingkangfang known to everyone in Handan City.

After the Pingkangfang effect is activated, we will promote it in Handan City. As the capital of Dazhao, Handan City has a leading demonstration effect in Dazhao. As long as Handan does it, other places will naturally follow. follow up.

By that time, the whole country, whether officials or common people, will have a correct understanding of the Pingkangfang model, and know how to use this model to develop business and economy, so why not worry about major events? "
