Chapter 239: Opportunities Are Everywhere

He Lingchuan's eyes flashed: "You are right, Lord."

Li Qingge said meaningfully: "Where there is power, there is money."

"I haven't taken office yet."

"But you are the eldest son of the He family, the first heir of General Manager He, and you are right next to the power." Li Qingge smiled, "People are more likely to be red if they are close to him. Why don't you make good use of it in the future?"

He Lingchuan raised his eyebrows: "I like this!"

"If you have confidence in your family and Xiazhou, you can buy goods at a low price now." Li Qingge continued to offer advice, "At this time, the identity of General Manager He is more useful than anything else. Even if there are some obstacles, they can be easily broken. When the crisis is over, they are all golden chickens that lay eggs. Do you still have to worry about money in the future?"

He Lingchuan stood up and bowed to her: "I have been enlightened. Thank you, Lord."

He had never done business before, so he lacked this nerve. After being enlightened by Songyang Hou, he suddenly felt clear.

Yes, all the people in Dunyu and Xiazhou want to curry favor with the new general manager, but he doesn't.

How can you not make good use of such an advantage?

Let's not talk about fairness or unfairness. A gentleman should be good at taking advantage of the situation.

Li Qingge waved her hand: "It's just a small matter, just a few words of gossip. The shop next door is really good. Do you want me to help you buy it?"

"Okay." He Lingchuan didn't refuse this time. How could he not be influenced by favors when he was in the underworld? He would find a chance to repay him in the future. "Then I'll trouble you, Lord."

He accepted the favor, and Li Qingge smiled with special satisfaction.

He Lingchuan looked at her and sighed: "Why did you help me like this?"

"I said, I have a good eye." Li Qingge was also very straightforward, "To make a living in Songyang Prefecture, the lowest level is to invest in farm shops, the middle level is to invest in business, and the highest level is to invest in people - I am very optimistic about Mr. He." I am willing to make friends with him for this.

He Lingchuan said self-deprecatingly: "It seems that I have to start from the lowest level."

Li Qingge chuckled.

After saying all, He Lingchuan had a pleasant surprise, so he stood up and said goodbye.

Songyang Hou stood by the attic window, watching him walk through the corridor below and back to the front hall, and then asked the maid behind him: "Has Manager Zhao negotiated with the shop next door?"

"It has been negotiated, and the contract will be signed at noon."

"Ask him to change the buyer to Mr. He, and send the contract to the He Mansion before dinner."

...

He Lingchuan went to the bank again and exchanged the 100,000 taels of silver note for small denominations.

Then, he took a carriage to walk around the city.

Pedestrians on the street came and went in a hurry, and few smiled. Today, Dunyu is very divided. The main street seems to be still prosperous, and the big restaurant is full of guests at night, but on the other side of the city, all industries are bleak and people are in panic.

He Lingchuan just passed by several grain stores, and there were long queues at the door. Just then, two guys put a sold-out sign in front of the jar, and the civilians who were late to buy were disappointed.

These are not good signs. He Yue told his brother that there is no shortage of food in Dunyu City.

So the sudden rush to buy now is due to panic and hoarding of food.

By the way, there is also the reason that the local tyrants bought and donated food two days ago to curry favor with the new state officials.

He Lingchuan didn't believe that his father didn't see these, but the government didn't make much effort to appease the people. It only posted a notice to appease the people. The whole article was full of stiff official terms, and the poor effectiveness can be imagined.

Before meeting Songyang Hou, He Lingchuan would only sigh at the cruelty of war; but after leaving the Songyang Mansion, his perspective changed, as if there were gold and silver waving to him all over the street.

If you don't make good use of it, you will be too sorry for yourself.

The decoration of He's house is still in full swing. He Lingchuan returned to his yard, and Yanlang disappeared again. Its hearing was too sensitive, and it couldn't stand the endless clanging, so it simply went out to play with He Yue's big black wolf.

He Lingchuan drank water while looking at the knife mountain, and saw that its color was getting more and more golden. It was obvious that the broken knife absorbed the gold very readily.

He was looking forward to the transformation of this knife.

He Lingchuan touched the handle of the knife, and suddenly remembered the shop that Pengcheng Office had specially exchanged for him.

Was this the broken knife reminding him that he could also copy the same thing in reality to solve the problem of money shortage?

Unfortunately, he didn't understand it until Songyang Hou broke this window paper.

"Sorry, I'm stupid." This knife must understand what he said, "But next time you give a hint, can you be more direct?"

Of course, the broken knife would not answer.

At this moment, the monkey jumped in from nowhere and knocked on the door frame: "Sun Hongye is here, and she brought someone with her."

It was almost becoming He Lingchuan's doorman, could it get an extra salary?

Sun Hongye walked into He Lingchuan's courtyard, closed the door with his backhand, pointed at the person he brought with him and said, "Boss, this is Shan Youjun."

He was one of the two private soldiers of the Li family that he wanted to recruit for He Lingchuan.

"After that incident, Jiao Tai was arrested, Shan Youjun also left the private army, and they are no longer members of the Li family."

Shan Youjun knelt on the spot and said firmly: "As long as Jiao Tai is rescued, I, Shan Youjun, am willing to serve you!"

The big movement affected the wound on the back of the hill, and he grimaced in pain.

"Get up." He Lingchuan lifted him up. Shan Youjun only felt that the other party was so strong that he couldn't help but stand up, and he was slightly surprised.

This rich young man seemed to have some skills.

He Lingchuan asked Sun Hongye: "Can you get Jiao Tai out?"

"I have found three or four witnesses who can prove that there is another person who pushed the pregnant woman and hit the rockery, not Jiao Tai." Sun Hongye said, "They have gone to the government office to confess. Once the real culprit is caught, Jiao Tai should be there soon." Just come out.”

He paused and then said, "The Li family should know about it soon if I do these things."

"The person who pushed down the pregnant woman was just the small leader of the private army and a distant relative of Li Zhi. The Li family would not deliberately protect him at the critical moment. If Li Shuang was smarter, he would have tied him to the government office as soon as possible." He Lingchuan smiled at Danyou. Jun said, "Don't worry, this matter will be settled soon."

In the past two days, Shan Youjun's heart was broken, and his heart was full of frustration and aggrieved by his inability to save people. But Young Master He in front of him decided the life or death of two people with just a few words.

He was about to kneel down again, but He Lingchuan grabbed his arm to prevent him from kneeling: "Okay, okay, your knees are so weak, how can you do anything for me?" He turned around and poured a cup of hot tea for each of them.

Sun Hongye accepted it calmly, while Shan Youjun was a little trembling.

"In the next two days, you must try to recruit another person for me." He Lingchuan made another request to Sun Hongye, "This person must be an old man who knows Dunyu's people and sophistication very well, and can understand both the upper and lower classes. Qing Dynasty, the parents of the four wealthy and squire families have their secrets at their fingertips, just like..."

He thought for a while and thought of a target person: "Just like Deputy Liu in Shihuan City."

Sun Hongye only became a staff member before He Lingchuan left Shi Huan. He had only met Assistant Liu once or twice, but he knew very well what people like "Assistant" did.

"What the boss wants is an assistant who is proficient in Dunyu's affairs?"

Summarizing it well, He Lingchuan raised his index finger and shook it: "Not only that, this person himself must be proficient in business and can handle property matters for me."

He could predict that the main theme of his future life would be either cultivation or fighting, so how could he have any time to make a living?

So, he needs a suitable manager.

When Shan Youjun heard this, he suddenly said: "The villain has a recommendation."

"You said." Yes, this guy is also a local.

"He is the old butler of the third master of the Shu family. His surname is Ding, and his name is Ding Zuodong. He is from Dunyu and has lived here for more than 40 years. When the third master was alive, Ding Zuodong was in charge of the purchase, purchase and management of the family, and he made all the arrangements. Everything is in order. Among the Shu family’s masters, his house is the most orderly.”

"Later, the old man of the Shu family died. The third master didn't know what he was doing, so he wanted to fight with the boss, but he didn't win, and he was ostracized from then on. Two years later, the third master Shu went to work in other places and drowned in the river. The Shu family found a Ding Zuodong was kicked out for a reason."

"Ding Zuodong has been looking for several jobs, but he was ruined by the Shu family. He is extremely depressed. He wants to take his family to the south these days. That would be a pity."

Sun Hongye asked: "What is this person's character?"

"It's good." Shan Youjun said, "Just after Mr. Shu died, an old gentleman in Daji Township in the south hired him as a housekeeper, and the salary was very high. Ding Zuodong didn't go because Mr. Shu left behind a widow and three children. . As far as I know, after Ding Zuodong left the Shu family, he arranged and handed over the last bit of Mr. Shu's property. "

He Lingchuan nodded and suddenly said: "How do you know so clearly?"

"These housekeepers under the four major families are the most criticized by everyone. Ding Zuodong's reputation is pretty good." Shan Youjun coughed, "Also, he is my uncle. I used to live in Xu County in the north. I came to Dunyu to join him.”

He Lingchuan smiled, no wonder.

"Then why is he working as a housekeeper in the Shu family, but you are working as a private soldier in the Li family?"

"When I arrived in Dunyu, he happened to be kicked out by the Shu family." Shan Youjun sighed, "He also had no time to take care of himself, so he found someone to force me into the Li Mansion."

He and Sun Hongye looked at each other, and the latter nodded slightly.

He Lingchuan then said: "I don't avoid relatives when I'm in office. You go back and talk to him. If he is willing to work for me, he will come for an interview tonight."

Shan Youjun was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll go right away!" After saluting, he left.

Sun Hongye said to He Lingchuan: "My boss was full of joy when he came back, but what did he gain from the outside?"

This guy is very observant. He Lingchuan then explained what Marquis Songyang had suggested.

"That's true. I should have thought of it earlier." Sun Hongye blamed herself after hearing this, "The streets are full of opportunities, but I turned a blind eye?"

"Your talent does not lie in making money for a living." He Lingchuan laughed loudly, "Otherwise, you would not have been working in Shihuan for so long and only made a few extra patches."

…

The afternoon flew by.

Before dinner, Manager Zhao from Songyang Mansion came and gave He Lingchuan a box.

It contains the deed of the shop next door to Songyang Mansion. He Lingchuan still has to go to the relevant departments to record the deed and make a record, so that this real estate truly belongs to him.
