Chapter 117 Revisiting Pan Chenghou

"I have seen the two kings down, but I don't know what instructions do you have?"

"Shopkeeper Pan, our shop plans to open a semicolon in Dongdu and Nandu, and will not open a fourth in the short term, so I would like to ask what you think about this?"

Pan Chenghou did not doubt that he had, so he turned out all the boy's skills and explained the business story in detail.

Thanks to the rapid flow of time in the agricultural society, the experience of forty years ago is still effective today. If it were Li Yu's previous life, forty years would have been two generations, which would be considered a world of change.

If you unfortunately study BP machine repair major, you will be taught to be a human being by the giant wheel of the times in ten years.

After Pan Chenghou finished speaking, Li Yu glanced at Li Jingqiong, and the latter nodded slightly.

He said, "Shopkeeper Pan, if all three stores are opened, then you will have to work as the general manager."

"This is natural. I understand it. The three stores look a lot, but the items they operate are single, which doesn't take much effort."

"So, do you have a suitable candidate to recommend the site selection and other preparations before opening a store in Jiangdu?" Li Jingqiong asked with a smile.

Pan Chenghou's heart skipped a beat. He looked up and saw that Baoning Wang Zheng looked at him with a smile, with a little childish look on his face.

Pan Chenghou did not dare to underestimate him. He had been in the palace for forty years and was a high-quality eunuch. What he should know and what he shouldn't know were all accounts in his stomach.

He could even vaguely guess why the saints, King Qi, and King E had to keep a distance from this King Baoning, but it was just a guess and there was no proof.

This was enough to make him feel excited to deal with it.

"This, this, I don't have any idea to go down. It's best if I accompany the two kings to come by myself, bring a few experienced players and leave the subsequent trivial matters to them."

Li Yu and Li Jingchang looked at each other, and as expected, Pan Chenghou's answer was unforgettable, which was expected. Otherwise, how could he climb to the fifth-rank eunuch of Yi Zhu?

Li Yu said: "Shopkeeper Pan, I just discussed with King Baoning. We are not familiar with Jiangbei. In addition, I can only drill the old paper piles and look for ancient squares. Uncle Wang is a good player, but he is a bit bad in business..."

"Hmph" Li Jingchang coughed in dissatisfaction

Li Yu ignored him and continued, "I think Pan Rong is a native of Jiangdu. He is very familiar with it. He is by your side all day long. He also has experience in the business of goods. In addition, he has been a clerk for so many years and has enough experience. He is the only one who has these three points. So you might as well entrust him to choose a location and prepare for the opening of the business. He will be the shopkeeper of the Xidu store in the future."

"This..." Pan Chenghou, it was impossible not to be moved when he heard this.

It’s not that he was jealous of the position of the shopkeeper of Xidu, which was a small matter worth mentioning in the eyes of the officials of the fifth-rank eunuch.

But what I was moved was that after several days of contact with Pan Rong's promotion, Pan Chenghou found that this nephew not only looked like his elder brother, but also had a kind personality.

Just as he was thinking about how to propose a good background, the hydrangea that Li Yu threw out now was just right.

Pan Rong is a merchant, scholar, peasant, industrial and commercial businessman. Merchants are rich but have no social status and cannot participate in the imperial examination.

Therefore, Pan Rong basically lost the path of his career, and the rest could only do business. He would first accumulate some value, and then let his descendants take the imperial examination.

The store of Chinhua is considered half an imperial merchant, so money is naturally unaware of. Moreover, when he became the shopkeeper of Dongdu, he had different contacts. He was backed by two kings and could also be on par with the imperial court officials and wealthy merchants.

This will be of great benefit to Pan Rong and even the Pan family's future exhibitions.

Before he knew it, Pan Chenghou, the former "iron planner" of the Ministry of Eunuchs, actually had the idea of ​​an old man from the folk.

However, after several rounds of mind, Pan Chenghou decided to calm down and said, "Thank you, the two kings are very loving, but Pan Rong is still young and has insufficient experience, so he still can't bear to take this great task. I'm not humble, you should ask for another clever one!"

The two looked at each other and smiled again, and saw a sentence from each other's eyes, "The old guy didn't tell the truth."

So the two of them fought together, just like Guo Gangde and Yu who were signing in front of the store just now, they took turns to play and almost praised Pan Rong as Tao Zhu's rebirth.

Pan Chenghou was forced to the point of being unable to do so, so he bowed and sued: "Pan Chenghou really appreciates the feelings of the two kings. Pan already knew the kindness of the two kings, but this position really did not dare to take it."

Li Yu's eyes lit up, and the showman came, and he hurriedly said, "Why is this?"

Pan Chenghou smiled bitterly in his heart: "I asked for it knowingly."

But this state must be expressed.

"Because, I am the shopkeeper of this shop. Even if I am a person in the palace, I still have to consider the king in daily life. Pan Rong is my nephew, so I still have to avoid suspicion."

A smart person can only say half a sentence, but Pan Chenghou has already handed out the bottom of the first half!

He was willing to help Li Yu, but he couldn't do it too much, after all, "even if he was a palace man"...

...

For eunuchs like Pan Chenghou, speaking to this point is like knocking to the ground.

He is also a domineering person in the palace. He is also a high-ranking official at the level of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the outer court. Naturally, he has his own reserve and dignity, and is an openly slave to the Heavenly Family.

In terms of real talent and real learning, it is not bad at all.

These people are like those professional affairs officials in later generations. Although they are timid and seem greasy and merciless to their superiors, they still have a forbidden zone in their hearts.

Although their lives can be trampled on, their personality can be insulted, and their dignity can be damaged, they have this small part of light and heat enough to support these people to survive tenaciously in the secular world.

For Pan Chenghou, this restricted area is the Pan family’s back.

What Li Yu has to do is to never infringe on this small area, but to take good care of it so that people can return home.

Hearing this, Li Yu smiled: "Shopkeeper Pan is so serious. You and I are the same in essence. They are all subordinates of saints. As long as you are dedicated to being a saint and for this Tang Dynasty, you can speak impartially and bluntly."

He was hinting that Pan Chenghou would not make things difficult for him, as long as he was realistic.

"Thank you for your understanding. After serving in the palace for so many years, you will naturally know that the saints and queens are loyal people. They have always taught us people with loyalty. They have never dared to say it over the years, but they still know a little about the essence..."

Pan Chenghou bowed to the ground.

"So, Shopkeeper Pan really doesn't consider letting Pan Rong take charge of Dongdu? He is also destined to be with our shop..."
