Chapter 589: See through

As soon as Liu Zhao returned to the palace, he got the news.
Gu Jiu had doubts about Chen Dachang's affairs.
Qian Fu pleaded guilty, "Old slaves are stupid, it's all their fault."
Liu Zhao waved his hand, "It's none of your business. Arrange Chen Dachang to the four seas firm. With his wife's keenness, you will definitely notice the quirks."
After sending Qian Fu away, Liu Zhao didn't hesitate for a moment. He didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he went directly to the room.
"Are you busy today?" Liu Zhao changed his robe in front of Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu glanced at him, "Fortunately, these are trivial things. By the way, Chen Dachang is still alive, do you know this."
Liu Zhao: "..." As soon as he came, he asked him about Chen Dachang. Did he suspect him?
Gu Jiu continued: "Chen Dachang wants to leave the capital to go to Jiangnan, and take shelter in Sihai Commercial Bank. What do you think about this?"
Liu Zhao: "..." Is this a temptation?
"Sihai Commercial Bank is your property, you can use it whatever you want. As for the fact that he is still alive, it's not uncommon."
Gu Jiu smiled and put down the book in his hand, "Chen Dachang's ability is beyond doubt. If he is willing to help me, I can't ask for it. It's like a tiger with wings. But he, I don't believe him."
Liu Zhao was very simple, "Then don't use him."
Gu Jiu looked at Liu Zhao, "Don't you think it's weird?"
"What's weird?" Liu Zhao pretended to be dumb, especially like it.
Gu Jiu particularly solemnly said: "Using Chen Dachang's means, even if someone wants to harm him, he can still get out safely. Even if he can't get out safely, he needs to find someone to help. There are so many people in the capital, but he just came to me. You said. It's not strange. It seems that he has identified me, or someone behind him is giving him advice."
"Who can be behind him? With Chen Dachang's identity, I don't think I can find a second one except for his father. Do you suspect that his father wants to put a nail in the Four Seas Commercial Bank?"
Liu Zhao couldn't help frowning.
Gu Jiu looked at him with a smile.
Liu Zhao: "..." mmp, is he not acting well enough?
Gu Jiu picked up the book again, smiled and said, "No matter who arranged for Chen Dachang to find me, I intend to use him."
Liu Zhao suddenly had an illusion that Gu Jiu could see through.
See through, don’t tell!
Occasionally confused!
Gu Jiu no longer mentioned Chen Dachang.
Liu Zhao is not good to continue this topic. After all, the goal has been achieved.
He just said symbolically, "Don't embarrass yourself."
Gu Jiu flipped through the book, but didn't even look at him. "I'm not embarrassed. A mere person, no matter what his identity in the past, the big four seas business houses can accommodate him."
"Tell me if you have any questions, and I will handle it for you."
Gu Jiu smiled, "Okay! I plan to set up a courier company. You can help me find some courageous, preferably veterans, who can write and count."
"What is a courier firm?"
"Help people deliver letters and things for a small fee."
"Post station?"
"Accurately, it is official post. It's just that my business firm wants to make money, mainly serving the small people."
Liu Zhao came interested.
The delivery of letters plays a great role in the military.
He asked: "Where are you going to send it?"
Gu Jiu said casually: "A ready-made route from Beijing to Luozhou. Directly set up a courier point at each rest station to collect and deliver the goods. Only deliver to each county, the farthest is each township, pavilion."
Liu Zhao asked curiously: "Can you make money?"
Gu Jiu gave him a white glance, "I definitely won't make money in the early stage, mainly because of reputation. There are more routes in the later stage, and it can make money."
"If this business is really profitable, the cost seems to be low, and it is easy for others to learn."
Liu Zhao hit the nail on the head.
Then Gu Jiu said clearly, "This lady has been imitated by others, and has never been surpassed."
Take the most profitable real estate as an example. Now there are no less than 50 real estate firms in Beijing. Who can compete with the real estate in the world?
So many businessmen, after learning the model of Xinmin County, ran back to their hometown and wanted to create a city. As a result, most of them failed without accident.
These merchants have overlooked an important factor. The success of the construction of the city by the merchants from all over the world was due to the support of the emperor and the court.
Just resettling tens of thousands of refugees has solved the old problem for the court.
Moreover, as more and more refugees poured into the capital, Sihai Commercial Bank has successively settled hundreds of thousands of refugees.
Most of these refugees are concentrated in Xinmin County, and a few are scattered in various counties in Gyeonggi.
With this kind of credit as the foundation, Xinmin County outside the southern city gate can build a city successfully.
Some people imitated the Sihai butcher's shop, and they really did it. It also promoted the livelihood economy of a place.
Gu Jiu would be happy to see these imitations, as long as they are not laborious.
In many cases, she would even take the initiative to support some business firms. Together, everyone would stir up the capital market and take out all the money that the landlord’s old wealth had hidden in the cellar.
When money circulates, the market really starts to heat up.
This is a long and arduous task.
It is a long-term project to break the consumption habits of the world and make people willing to spend money.
Gu Jiu is not in a hurry, she has enough time and patience to make arrangements slowly.
When this world no longer worries about food and makes money easier, even the most stingy old fortune will spend copper money.
As long as consumption, the imperial court will have taxes, businesses will have income, and the products produced by the workshops will be sold smoothly.
What should we do when the market is saturated and supply exceeds demand?
Do you want to watch those workshops that follow suit go bankrupt and watch those workers have no work to do?
Gu Jiu smiled slightly.
Outside the Great Zhou, the world is vast.
The vast land and the huge population will be the market of Dazhou, the cattle and sheep of Dazhou.
The big deal is to engage in semi-colonization and directly dump goods.
Of course, the current production volume is far from being saturated.
In the vast expanse of the Great Week, the market potential was less than 5% developed, and it was the time when there was much to do.
Before developing the market, Gu Jiu decided to start express delivery.
When the commodity market is greatly enriched, the main service objects of the express delivery industry will be those firms, factories, and big bosses and merchants.
Only with the circulation of goods and money can the commercial market develop.
Grain allocation can be delivered to the destination at the lowest cost.
Only the royal income can be used effectively and unnecessary losses can be truly reduced.
This is Gu Jiu's blueprint, and it is also Liu Zhao's blueprint.
Liu Zhao said: "This express business is feasible for all veterans?"
Gu Jiu shook his head, "No! The express industry has developed, do you know who is the most affected? It is the footman who makes a living by delivering goods to people. A footman is a family behind him. My express company, Like toll booths, half are veterans and half are local porters."
"Okay, it's up to you. You tell me how to operate overseas colonization."
Liu Zhao's eyes sparkled with excitement and danger.
Overseas colonization is a fatal temptation for him.
Gu Jiu barked her teeth, did she release a monster?
do not care!
Let's deal with it first.
I don't know whether they can really colonize overseas in their lifetime.
If there is such a day, Gu Jiu said in his heart, she also wants to go overseas.
...
Gu Jiu made an appointment with Chen Dachang and met in Xianrenju.
Gu Jiu did some disguise himself.
She said that she was pregnant, and she asked for peace if she didn't go to the palace. In a blink of an eye I ran out to shop and drink tea.
If this spreads to the palace, it will be enough for her to eat a pot.
The less trouble, the better.
Gu Jiu simply dressed up in men's clothing, and under the cover of Qianfu, he left the palace and came to the idler's residence.
Deng Cunli had long been waiting at the back door of Xianrenju.
"Madam is here! Grandpa Chen has been waiting in the backyard for a long time."
Gu Jiu got off the carriage, holding a folding fan in his hand. From a distance, he was clearly a suave son.
She played with the folding fan and asked, "Is he alone?"
"There is also an old servant driving a car."
Gu Jiu laughed, "Go, let me in and meet this old thing."
Enter the idle dwelling through the back door.
Here in the backyard, there is no one on weekdays.
But today, a tea room in the backyard is more popular, and there is the sound of piano.
Deng Cunli froze for a moment, and said hurriedly: "It's Duke Chen playing the piano."
I didn't expect that Chen Dachang could do everything in chess, calligraphy and painting.
Gu Jiu asked curiously, "What did you study in the inner study?"
Deng Cunli bowed and said: "Similar to the Imperial College, mainly studying the Four Books and Five Classics. In addition, he will also study piano, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy. Grandpa Chen was the best one among our group of people."
Gu Jiu knew it.
No wonder Chen Dachang can finally be reused by the first emperor. However, Deng Cunli almost couldn't get along, and was introduced to Gu Jiu by Mother Fang.
After playing a song, Gu Jiu opened the door and entered.
Happiness!
Three slaps sounded.
"Good qin! Although my lady doesn't understand qin, she also heard her unwillingness from Chen Gonggong's piano sound. Isn't Chen Gonggong willing to work in the four seas trading houses? Not even going to Jiangnan?"
Gu Jiu went straight to the point, without any polite words, and went straight to the center of the problem.
Chen Dachang looked up and looked at Gu Jiu who was dressed in menswear. The dazzling sunlight made him shake his head.
"I heard that Madam Zhao is pregnant, how can I dress like this?"
"Why can't you do such a dress? Don't you forget Grandpa Chen, you are not an ordinary person. My wife came to see you, so she naturally wanted to cover up."
Gu Jiu shook his sleeves and sat directly on the ground.
There is a short table between the two.
The servant took the guqin away and replaced it with tea and snacks.
Gu Jiu motioned to Deng Cunli.
Deng Cunli quickly changed the tea in front of Gu Jiu to plain water.
She is pregnant and drinking tea is inappropriate.
"Grandpa Chen, this lady doesn't believe you. But I am willing to use you."
