Suppliers from both worlds have dominated the world since Datang!

Wang Zhigui has no doubt at all about Zhuang Zhou's strength.

"I did get some new stuff this time, but there is one more thing I want to trouble Brother Wang with."

Wang Zhigui couldn’t ask for more!

"No trouble! Brother Zhuang, please tell me."

"I want you to help find some carpenters to make some shelves for my shop."

Wang Zhigui pondered slightly:

"Brother Zhuang, are you ready to start business?"

"Yes, I want to open the store first."

Wang Zhigui didn't find it strange, and just asked:

"Have you decided on a name for your store?"

Zhuang Zhou hummed and said:

“I’ve thought about it, let’s call it ‘Zhuang Kee Grocery Store’!”

Wang Zhigui pondered slightly, but his name was ordinary.

Just then, Zhuang Zhou said:

"By the way, Brother Wang, there is one more thing I want to trouble you with."

"Brother Zhuang, please tell us which of us will follow whom."

Zhuang Zhou smiled slightly and said:

"I would like to trouble you to help me collect some ceramics and some calligraphy and paintings. Of course, those from famous artists are best."

Wang Zhigui said in confusion:

"Brother Zhuang, what is this used for?"

“Some business friends like these gadgets from Datang, so I thought I’d get some for them.”

"I see!"

Wang Zhigui slapped his chest and said with a hearty smile:

"Don't worry! Just leave it to me."

……

Wang Zhigui was also a man of action and immediately arranged for Ma San to find a carpenter.

Next, Zhuang Zhou personally guided the carpenter to start work.

Mainly making counters and shelves.

In fact, regarding shelves, Zhuang Zhou thinks that he can bring them to modern society in the future.

Just like the ones found in supermarkets, they can be used directly after being combined.

Now it is left to Ma San to lead the carpenters in the shop.

Zhuang Zhou was free.

After thinking about it, it’s okay to stay here, why not go back first!

But here you have to find someone you can trust.

Now you can try Ma San's character.

But how to try it?

Of course it is money!

"Ma San, you are currently working as a waiter for Shopkeeper Wang, right?"

"Yes."

"How much salary do you get per month?"

Ma San was stunned, not expecting to ask him this question.

"What? Isn't it convenient to say it?"

"No, my monthly salary is two hundred cents."

Zhuang Zhou remembered that Liu Yunhe said that a penny in this era was almost 4.5 yuan in later generations.

After all, it’s only 900 yuan.

This seems very low!

Zhuang Zhou remembered that when he first met Ma San, he gave him a reward of twenty cents.

This is already one-tenth of his salary.

After thinking for a while, Zhuang Zhou asked tentatively:

"Ma San, my grocery store is about to open now. Do you know an accountant?"

"Yes!"

Ma San said without thinking.

"Oh, okay, please help me keep an eye on it. I want to hire an accountant now. If I have a monthly salary, I'm going to offer...well, four hundred cents!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma San's expression changed instantly.

Immediately showed a fawning smile:

"Mr. Zhuang, I...I have something I don't know whether to say or not."

"What? Just say it."

Ma San hesitated for a moment, then knelt down and said loudly:

"My boss, I want to work with you, please take me in."

Good guy!

This move directly shocked Zhuang Zhou.

Ma San was still full of excitement:

"My boss, I have had a hard time since I was a child, and I just want to make more money to honor my mother. As long as my boss is willing to take me in, I will do my best for my boss in the future, no matter what."

This is where you start to express your determination!

But Ma San is a noble person of the king, so he poaches people so blatantly.

Are you afraid it's bad? !

"Ma San, I think you are quite a nice person, but you are from Shopkeeper Wang..."

"Don't worry, boss. Shopkeeper Wang only treats me as a waiter. It doesn't matter if you have me or not."

This is true.

Zhuang Zhou also discovered in Wangji Trading Company that Ma San was just a waiter serving tea and water in the shop.

There is no sense of existence at all.

As long as I mention it to Wang Zhigui, I expect that he will give me this face.

"Okay, Ma San, I'll go and talk to Shopkeeper Wang later, and you can follow me from now on."

Ma Sanru was blessed by Tian'en and kept kowtowing:

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss!"

"Okay, get up!"

"Yes. I will definitely do a good job in the future."

Zhuang Zhou hummed:

"Now I will give you a monthly salary of four hundred cents for the time being. If you perform well, I will also give you a salary increase."

"salary?"

"It's just salary."

The reason was that his previous salary was doubled.

Firstly, it is because the nature of the work is different. After all, accounting is still a technical job.

Secondly, this business has just started, and many things need to be started from scratch.

Everything is difficult at the beginning!

It will get better gradually in the future.

After thinking for a while, Zhuang Zhou continued:

"I'm going to make a trip to buy goods in the next two days. How about you help me look at the store and supervise the carpenters' work?"

Ma San immediately expressed his position and said:

"Don't worry, owner, I will definitely take good care of the store."

Zhuang Zhou also wondered whether Ma San could survive the two days he was gone.

It can be considered a short trial period.

"Okay! You work here first, and I'll go talk to Shopkeeper Wang."

After Zhuang Zhou finished his instructions, he went back to the backyard and picked up a few items he had brought this time.

Then he went out to Wang Ji Trading Company to find Wang Zhigui.

All the things sold last time were exchanged for gold and brought back.

The only remaining three copper coins were also placed in a high-end antique shop.

Now Zhuang Zhou can be said to be penniless.

I have to find Wang Zhigui to exchange some copper coins for operation.

……

Wang Kee Trading Company.

"Brother Zhuang, do you think this thing is called a solar flashlight?"

Looking at the bright lamp in Zhuang Zhou's hand.

Wang Zhigui was completely stunned.

This thing is much brighter than an oil lamp.

But Wang Zhigui observed it for a while and couldn't help but ask:

"Brother Zhuang, I've been looking for a long time, but I still can't see where the ignition wick is?"

"Ha! This thing doesn't need to be ignited. Do you see this? Press it and it will light up. Press it again and it will turn off."

Zhuang Zhou pressed the switch on the flashlight twice.

I saw the light suddenly go out, then light up again.

Wang Zhigui was completely shocked at this moment.

"This lamp does not require fuel or wax, and it is so bright. It is really magical!"

As he spoke, Wang Zhigui bent down and stared at the flashlight.

"Brother Zhuang, I really opened my eyes today."

Zhuang Zhou immediately introduced again:

"This lamp of mine not only does not require fuel, but the light is better than that of an oil lamp and does not hurt the eyes. At night, when the lamp is turned on, it illuminates the road as if it were daytime."

"Yes! What a good baby!"

Wang Zhigui can be sure that he has been operating in Chang'an City for many years.

Even the current Holy Emperor has never seen such a lamp.

Immediately, he no longer hesitated and said directly:

"Brother Zhuang, you must sell this lamp to me. Just give me a price, right?"
