Take a Door with You

"We now have a total of six thousand two hundred and forty taels."

"An ordinary bodyguard master has at most two or three taels of silver per month. It can be less when not flying darts, and more when he is flying darts. It is roughly within this range."

"Experienced old guards have more, six or seven taels a month."

"Masters with extraordinary martial arts come to ten or two a month."

"Our Escort Agency is configured with one hundred ordinary bodyguards, three to five bodyguard heads, and three to five masters. It will only be about three hundred or two a month."

"More than six thousand taels of silver is enough for us to support ourselves for two years."

"And in the past two years, the fresh fish business has earned a small 10,000 yuan a year—"

With Cao Xin's calculations, even if the Escort pays four to five thousand taels a year, he can still afford it, and even have a surplus of several thousand taels.

"..."

"this--"

Cao Ren was dumbfounded.

Cao Xin also felt outrageous.

Didn't it mean that money is hard to earn and shit is hard to eat?

How come to him, earning money is so easy? !

But on second thought——

Sitting in the original fairyland, relying on mountains to eat mountains and relying on water to drink water, a 40-50 meter wide original river is the greatest treasure!

The only thing to note is that selling fresh fish like this over the years will inevitably attract attention. However, Cao Xin's current fresh fish are directly supplied to restaurants and restaurants, and are not sold loosely in the fish market, trying to minimize the impact.

Spend some more money to do it up and down.

It is not difficult to cover up.

In addition, Lu Damiao and others have already infiltrated the Luoxiu county government, so there is no need to worry about the channel of money.

In a word-

Money can turn ghosts around.

As long as he has money, Cao Xin can weave a big net step by step to protect his three acres of land.

What's the point of maintaining a daily trade of 3,000 catties of fresh fish, and more than 700 fresh fish scattered into the vast market with a population of more than 2 million in the entire Xijing City?

And it's just small bucks.

When the Escort is on the track, using the "Original Immortal World" to transship the goods and earn the price difference, this is the real huge profit!

Cao Xin is not short of money!

...

The plan to open an Escort was officially put on the agenda.

However, this is not something that can be accomplished overnight——

Recruiting for Mabai Wharf!

All the preparations in the early stage can make people feel overwhelmed.

For example, being filial to officials, ensuring that they are not made things difficult. This is easy to say, but to whom should the money be given, what channels should be used to send it, how much to give and how little to give, what name, is this person reliable...

And so on, these are all doorways.

Another example is peer survey and management.

Although the market in Xijing City is huge, the Escorts are no better than martial arts gyms. There are only a few famous Escorts in Xijing City, big and small. How to deal with the hostility, exclusion, and difficulties of peers? Is it soft or hard?

This is also the way.

Furthermore, even though Cao Xin is rich, the Escort Bureau is not in a hurry to take over escorts and run them to make money, but it can't really let such a big Escort Bureau idle for two years, it has to pretend.

Otherwise, when other people saw it, wouldn't they know at a glance that this is a rich man?

This is not acceptable.

And if you want to walk the darts, you must have an employer.

The strength and credibility of the new escort agencies are problems, customers will not take the initiative to come to the door, and they have to recruit them one by one.

How to recruit?

How about the price?

How to settle the claim?

These questions are also not simple.

This is not counting the choice of route and various situations on the road during the actual darts.

Compared with the above-mentioned problems, recruiting troops has become the simplest thing.

"take it easy!"

Anyway, Cao Xin is the shopkeeper, he only speaks, only pays, and doesn't care about anything else.

Cao Ren is an old tool man!

very useful!

Leave everything to him, Cao Xin rest assured.

And Cao Ren's first task is to persuade Duan Chong to join the gang!

Except for the money, the Cao family doesn't have the strength to open an escort agency at all, and they have to rely on Duan Chong for all their plans.

This person is the key, if you can't be persuaded, everything will stop.

...

"Escort?"

"It's not easy."

Duan Chong was shocked when he heard Cao Ren's plan.

Although he has never been in this industry, he also knows that there are many ways in it, and capital, strength, connections, and fame are all indispensable.

"At least one thousand eight hundred taels of silver in the early stage."

Duan Chong made a rough estimate and was more surprised.

When Duan Chong came to Xijing City in the middle of last year, he was still worried about his future livelihood, so he had the idea of ​​becoming an escort. He had inquired about it through his friend Huang Long, and he knew that in the famous "Fuliu Escort Bureau" in Xijing City, the monthly payment for ordinary bodyguards was two taels, for senior bodyguards three taels, for ordinary bodyguards six taels, and for big bodyguards ten taels.

Further down, there must be trippers and handymen.

The monthly salary alone is a large sum, and there are also subsidies for the departure of darts.

In addition, purchasing dart carts, dart boxes, horses or donkeys and mules is even more expensive.

If you want to open an escort agency, one thousand taels of silver is just a starting point!

On the way of darts, it is not fighting and killing along the way, but people are so sophisticated, guarding the darts with strength, opening the way with fame, and giving money to the ghosts and snakes along the way.

Once you miss a dart, you have to pay for it.

Once the casualty, have to pay compensation.

How can ordinary people afford this kind of business.

His disciple is beyond imagination.

"Master, we don't lack capital. With Master in charge, we also have strength. As for connections and reputation, take your time. The escort agency is not in a hurry to make a profit. If you go a few more times, connections and reputation will naturally come."

Cao Ren parroted his tongue, and what he said was instilled in him by Cao Xin.

But he also thinks it makes sense.

All these problems, in the final analysis, are still problems of money.

As long as the money is in place, it can be solved in the end.

...

Duan Chong listened and was about to speak.

But at this time, Ning Shuhua took over the conversation and looked at Cao Ren: "You can't say these words, who taught you? Also, I was always curious before, but it's hard to ask—"

"Shuhua!"

Duan Chong should know what Ning Shuhua wants to ask.

want to stop -

"Brother, stop talking."

Ning Shuhua raised her hand, silenced Duan Chong, then looked at Cao Xin, her tone softened: "Master and apprentice are one. Your master values ​​you, and we all know your temperament. I can't bear to see you make mistakes. Maybe it's my wife who is worrying too much, but your family escaped from Ningxi and arrived in Xijing City in July of the second year of Qianyou, and it only took a little over a year, what kind of business can earn more than a thousand taels of silver?"

There are at least two or three hundred taels of yards on that bright side.

In the early stage of opening an escort agency, at least nearly a thousand taels is required.

That's already over a thousand.

Where did the Cao family get so much money? Do business? What kind of business can be so profitable?

This is what normal people would be suspicious of.

Doing business requires capital, where does Cao Ren's capital come from?

The profit of doing business is limited. Even if the profit is doubled, how much capital and quantity are needed to earn more than one thousand taels in a year and a half?

Is it a windfall?

or—

ill-gotten gains? !

Ning Shuhua looked at Cao Ren with a complicated expression.

If it had been a few months ago, she would not have mentioned it.

But now, Duan Chong intends to train Cao Ren as his successor, and Cao Ren wants to pull Duan Chong to open an escort agency. The relationship between the two is about to become closer.

As she said: Master and apprentice are one.

Before that, some doubts and confusions in the past have to be clarified.

If you don't know why, you are afraid of disaster.
