Chapter 51 Two masters

The next day, the twenty-sixth of May in the lunar calendar.

Zhang Qianxiu didn’t go to the market, but gave it all to Huang Enquan to handle it, and Zhang Jiankang followed to help.

Zhang Qianxiu went to the county seat and just apprenticeship yesterday. Zhang Qianxiu feels that learning how much Chinese studies is good. He can’t keep watching the rice harvesting. Sooner or later he still has to hand it over to Huang Enquan. Now Huang Enquan is almost capable of this. .

First went to the market to buy some vegetables, and then went to Shudetang.

Ge Qingshan was still reading when Zhang Qianxiu entered the door.

“Master!” Zhang Qianxiu greeted as he entered the door.

Ge Qingshan raised his head and said, “It’s early! The dishes are in the kitchen. I will give you massage first. If we learn, we will start from the 13 Classics, as for the Twenty-Four History, New Yuan History, and Qing History Draft. You can just read it for yourself in the future. After the four books and five classics, I will talk to you about the various schools of thought.”

Zhang Qianxiu has heard of the Four Books and the Five Classics, but never read it.

As for the books of the Thirteen Classics, he hadn’t even heard of them, so he responded and went to put the dishes.

When he came out, Ge Qingshan had already brought out his tea set, and it was the Analects of Confucius.

Ge Qingshan first massaged Zhang Qianxiu’s injuries, and then sat down at the tea table.

After Zhang Qianxiu sat down, Ge Qingshan said, “Although I like Taoism, I will tell you the Confucian classics first. That’s because most of our country has been governed by Confucianism in the past dynasties. Even now, it has its influence. Confucianism is good for you.”

“The Thirteen Classics are the most important thirteen classics of Confucianism, including four books and five classics. One “Le jing” has been lost. In addition, “The Book of Changes” cannot be regarded as a Confucian classic. It is a guide for both Taoism and Confucianism. I can’t get a glimpse of the second and third. We will study again at the end, so what we are actually studying is the eleven classics.”

“There are many opinions in these books, and it is not appropriate to put them now. You have to think while you are studying, and then we two discuss and debate whether the opinions in this book are suitable for the current era, and finally absorb what you need. , Understand what you are against.”

Zhang Qianxiu responded respectfully.

Ge Qingshan gave the Analects to Zhang Qianxiu, while making tea himself, he said: “The first chapter of the Analects is for learning. In the first sentence, the son said: learning and acquaintance with time, it’s a pleasure…”

Ge Qingshan teaching Zhang Qianxiu things is more like chatting with Zhang Qianxiu, first translating the original text in vernacular, and then discussing it word by word with Zhang Qianxiu. This sentence is not appropriate to the present.

Moreover, Ge Qingshan had already memorized all the “The Analects of Confucius” all the time, so he didn’t need to read a book when teaching.

Sometimes, Ge Qingshan would quote words from other books, and he would just open his mouth, and it would be all in his mind.

Zhang Qianxiu is very curious. Ge Qingshan has already memorized it, why he still needs to read a book.

After drinking tea and discussing books, the time passed quickly, and it was eleven o’clock unknowingly.

Ge Qingshan went to cook and let Zhang Qianxiu read the book by himself.

Zhang Qianxiu was holding “The Analects” without Ge Qingshan’s explanation, so he couldn’t understand it.

Zhang Qianxiu had to put down “The Analects” and took out the book he brought, which was “Business Law”. It is always better to know some laws when doing business.

When Ge Qingshan was cooking, he saw Zhang Qianxiu looking at the law and didn’t say much. He just said: “Eat first, the two boys are probably coming soon. You will have to visit the store later.”

“Oh, yes, master!”

After eating, Zhang Qianxiu took the book, carried the meal, and went to the market.

At this time, it happened to be a meal. There were not many people in the market, and there were only more than 20 bags of river sand in the shop, which would not be empty.

After a while, two human tricycles stopped at the door and Mi came.

The two masters are acquaintances, so they will help unload the rice after parking the car.

After unloading the goods, Zhang Qianxiu smoked the two masters and sat to rest and chat. Huang Enquan and Zhang Jiankang sat while eating.

The two masters were negotiated by Zhang Qianxiu, and they had already sent them a few days of goods. He sighed and said: “Boss, you two trips this day, you have to make a lot of money, right?”

Zhang Qianxiu shook his head slightly: “It’s all hard-earned money, and we still have to pay for it. We can’t make much a day.”

Now the price of rice is up. It looks like you can make about 25 cents per catty, and you can sell one thousand and six hundred catties a day. This is still because there is no rice, and the door is basically not opened in the morning. If you open the door in the morning, there will be nothing for two thousand catties a day. problem.

Calculating in this way, you can make about three hundred and eighty yuan a day.

If you remove Huang Enquan and Zhang Qiankang’s salary, car fare, meals, rent, water and electricity, the expenses will cost 30 or 40 per day, and there will be a profit of about 34, which is almost unimaginable for ordinary people.

The two masters also didn’t take Zhang Qianxiu’s words seriously, and said to themselves: “You little bosses are smart. If the little boss isn’t looking for us to buy goods, we can make a fixed amount of money in these two days. We are almost unable to continue. ”

In fact, it costs a few bucks to bring in this goods, which is not cheap.

Zhang Qianxiu asked strangely: “You should have more than a dozen yuan this day, right?”

A master smiled bitterly: “A dozen yuan? If there is, then we will laugh in our dreams. Nowadays, fewer goods are pulled, and even fewer riders, sometimes less than three yuan a day.”

Zhang Qianxiu did not expect the business of pulling carts to be so bad, but thinking about it carefully, many people would rather walk for half an hour than take a ten-minute rickshaw. Although it only costs a few cents, it is for the current people. Said that these few cents might as well be used to buy a few taels of meat to eat.

Zhang Qianxiu suddenly had an idea and said, “Two masters, I have a business here. Are you interested in it?”

The two masters froze for a moment and asked, “Little boss, what kind of business is it? I don’t know if we can do it.”

Zhang Qianxiu said, “I want rice. You can help me go to the countryside or the market to collect it. If you collect good rice in the countryside, it is about 35 or 6 cents. I don’t care how much you charge. I will collect good rice at 40 cents. Others It’s probably the same for rice. If you can collect one hundred catties a day, you can make eight yuan, and two hundred catties can make sixteen. If others sell rice, it will cost more than ten catties. It shouldn’t be difficult to collect ten households a day.”

The fixed price of rice in other places is only four cents, but when doing business, everyone wants their own profits to be higher.

When the two masters heard this, they immediately became interested: “Little boss, are you serious about this?”

Zhang Qianxiu nodded: “Naturally it is true. From now on, you can deliver rice every day after 12 o’clock noon, but you have to be optimistic about the standard. If you receive the second rice as good rice, I can only pay the price of the second rice Give money.”

“But even if you make a mistake, there will be a few cents of profit per pound, and you will not lose money.”

“And my facade is here, and I can’t escape, right?”

The two masters contemplated for a while, looked at each other, and both were moved.

However, the two people are still hesitating to invest money in this early stage.

Zhang Qianxiu saw the hearts of the two people moved, and said with a smile: “Why don’t you, two masters, try it first, it will take a few jins to sell it to me first, and then invest a little more when you make money. A few dozen catties of rice is only a dozen yuan, and if I don’t want to break my promise, you can still sell it to other grain and oil shops, and you won’t lose money, and some will make money.”

Many people in the county know that if you often go to those grain and oil shops that have a fixed supply of rice to sell rice, it is easy to be beaten, so they know that this is profitable, but few people dare to do it.

Occasionally, someone sells them every three to five times, and if they are recognized by a rice trader, they are easily beaten.

Zhang Qianxiu didn’t inquire carefully at the beginning, and didn’t know these circumstances, so he plunged in.

And Zhang Qianxiu is a new store, and the boss asked them to accept it. Naturally, they didn’t have this concern. Their only concern was whether Zhang Qianxiu would suddenly not want the rice, and all the rice fell into his own hands.

After listening to Zhang Qianxiu’s words, the two masters felt very reasonable: “That’s OK, let’s try it.”

Zhang Qianxiu was also happy when the two agreed, and sent them another cigarette.
