Chapter 83 Security

When he arrived at the county town, Chen Que invited him, "Brother Wanrong, please go to the county government to talk. Today, no matter what, I have to give you a cup of good tea! We have to have a good chat."

According to his regulations, the county government does not allow tea and water exchange. Even if someone comes, he can only drink a bowl of hot water. Chen Wanrong has been to the county government several times but has not taken a sip of tea. Chen Que can change his mind today, and it is a special exception. It is a great honor to give Chen Wanrong a cup of tea.

Chen Wanrong thought about the fact that there were still many things at home, and said with a fist: "I appreciate the kindness of Lord Shen. But Lord Shen still has to settle the case, so I won't bother Lord Shen anymore. Say goodbye!"

Chen Que hurriedly grabbed the reins and stopped him in front of the horse and refused to let go: "Brother Wanrong, there is nothing to be tried in this case, and it will be concluded soon. Besides, eating a cup of tea will not take much time, and you must go today."

"Mr. Shen, tell me the truth. There are still many things at home, and I have to go back. If we just want to have tea, we will talk about it another day. If there is still something to do, we can consider it." Chen Wanrong was unwilling to spend time on a cup of tea and had not seen Yi Ren for a day, so he missed him very much.

Chen Que really wanted to have a good chat with Chen Wanrong. There was no big deal, so he had to let him go: "Since that's the case, we will meet again another day. Brother Wanrong, please!"

Chen Wanrong agreed and pulled the reins and went quickly. He first came to the winery and saw Xiao Zhizhong and his friend working, each of them sweating all over the head. Although Sun Zhengping was not there, he was not lazy.

Xiao Zhizhong hurriedly came up and bowed with his fists, "I've seen my boss!"

"You guys are busy!" Chen Wanrong waved his hand to stop the guys who were coming to see him. The guy responded and went to work hard again.

Chen Wanrong looked at the room in an orderly manner, and there was no confusion because of Sun Zhengping's absence. He was very satisfied and said, "Master Xiao, is there anything wrong? If so, I'll be easy to deal with."

Xiao Zhizhong smiled and said, "I dare not stop talking when asked by Lao Dong's family. It's really nothing. If so, I will tell you."

"That's good! Manager Sun is busy at home and will have to come back a few days later. Please use more snacks and take care of them." Chen Wanrong ordered.

Xiao Zhizhong responded quickly: "People, please rest assured, I will pay attention. Brothers are diligent, never lazy to work, and there will be no trouble."

These guys are hardworking and simple, and do not lazy in their work. Chen Wanrong believed it and nodded in agreement. With Xiao Zhizhong accompanying him, he walked around and took a look. There was no problem, and then he left the winery and went home.

Seeing the yard from afar, Chen Wanrong couldn't help but feel happy. If it was expected, Zheng Qing should be waiting for her to come back. She leaned against the door and looked at each other. That was the happiness of a man. She couldn't help but slam the horse and ran towards the yard like an arrow.

However, what disappointed Chen Wanrong was that Zheng Qing was not waiting for him at the door, and she couldn't help but feel nervous. Didn't she come? She asked her to help keep a look after the house just to see her as soon as she came back. Her wish was disappointed, and Chen Wanrong felt a little disappointed.

When I arrived at the yard, Xiao Shangrong came up. Before the person arrived, he arrived first: "Brother, are you just coming back now?"

After the matter was finished, it didn't stop for a moment and rushed back without stopping. It actually caused him to complain. Chen Wanrong was really aggrieved. Before he could tell, Xiao Shangrong said, "Brother, Zhao Bot is waiting for you."

When Zhao Xiaotian came, he naturally wanted to talk about guarding the house. Chen Wanrong handed the horse reins to Xiao Shangrong and asked, "Where is the person?"

"In the room, Sister Zheng talked with her." Xiao Shangrong replied, leading the blue and white flowers.

No wonder Zheng Qing didn't come out to greet me. She turned out to be the guest on my behalf, and she regarded herself as a part of this family. The sweetheart in the head was not there, so her future wife was naturally responsible for socializing.

In this family, except for Chen Wanrong, the only one who can socialize is Chen Wang. Chen Wang is not worthy of the market. Don’t expect him. Zheng Qing is knowledgeable and polite, smart and capable, so she can be at ease. She is naturally relieved. It is much better than Chen Wang.

Chen Wanrong stepped into the house and saw Zhao Xiaotian drinking tea with Zheng Qing's accompanying him, with a smile on his face. He didn't know what Zheng Qing said, making him so happy. To accompany the guests, it is to make the guests happy. This is one of the basic responsibilities of the host.

"Brother Chen!" Zheng Qing was so happy when she saw Chen Wanrong's face. She stood up and walked lightly to Chen Wanrong's side, snuggling with her birds like a man. Her bright and wonderful eyes looked at Chen Wanrong. She looked very carefully, as if she was afraid that Chen Wanrong would have any damage.

The endless affection was all in this gaze. Chen Wanrong was very helpful. He flashed his eyes at her, and he became naughty and said softly: "I'm fine, don't worry. How are you?"

Zheng Qing lightly tapped her head and was very happy. What else is more happy than caring for her lover? The words "I just miss you very much" can no longer be said.

As soon as the two met, they were filled with emotions and lightning. Zhao Xiaotian came over and chose not to make a light bulb. He sat quietly and drank tea without even glanced at the two, allowing them to fall in love.

Chen Wanrong is not surprised by this kind of thing, but Zheng Qing is a daughter's house after all. She is happy to see her lover, but she is too embarrassed to act in front of an outsider. She can't help but give Chen Wanrong a blank look, meaning that there is an outsider present, and you don't remind me, and whisper: "Brother Chen, Zhao Bo Head is here, you can accompany me. I'll go see Sister Huahua!"

Without waiting for Chen Wanrong to speak, she went quickly. Chen Wanrong saw her pretty face flying and shy, and although she was reluctant to leave, she had to leave.

"Zhao Piaotou has arrived, but he has not welcomed him. I also asked Zhao Piaotou to forgive him." Chen Wanrong bowed his fists to greet him.

Zhao Xiaotian then put down the teacup, stood up and returned the greeting: "Shopkeeper Chen is so serious. It's Zhao who came abruptly. Please forgive the abrupt crime. Storekeeper Chen, Xiaotian apologized here."

Chen Wanrong quickly stopped him and said, "Tao Zhao, please sit down."

Zhao Xiaotian thanked him and sat down.

Chen Wanrong asked directly for his purpose: "What's the important thing about Zhao Piaotou is here?"

Zhao Xiaotian touched his beard and smiled and said, "There is nothing else for Xiaotian to come. The day before yesterday, I have reported to the Chief Officer Chen. The Chief Officer replied that he could agree to the Chief Officer Chen's request. The Chief Officer said that the reputation of soap is getting louder and louder, not only in Chang'an and Luoyang, but also in Chengdu, Guangzhou and Yangzhou, many people are using soap."

Chen Wanrong was a little curious and asked, "How is this possible? Soap is only sold in Chang'an and Luoyang, and it is not sold elsewhere, so how can it be?"

Zhao Xiaotian looked regretful: "Shopkeeper Chen, think about it, even the emperor praised the soap, and the court officials were all using it. Can the reputation of soap not far away? After hearing about these far-reaching places, many people came to Chang'an and Luoyang to buy them all. After returning to their original place, they reselled them except for using it themselves. They bought it for fifteen taels of silver, but sold them for fifty taels."

It’s really abominable. This reseller made money for them, but they only earned small amounts. It’s really angering.

Zhao Xiaotian was so worldly that he didn't know what Chen Wanrong thought, and comforted him: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with this. Shopkeeper Chen, this means that your soap is a good thing, otherwise why would they go thousands of miles to resell? I heard from the head of the general escort that some people don't use it themselves, and specialize in reselling soap. Even if you buy ten yuan, you have to sell a few hundred taels of silver when you return to the original place. In addition to spending on the road, there are more than a hundred and two hundred taels of money to account for."

Chen Wanrong became more and more frightened when he heard this. In the long run, the soap was not resold. The dissident was everywhere, and his face changed color and said, "No, I have to stop them."

Zhao Xiaotian shook his hand and said, "Shopkeeper Chen, just turn a blind eye, and let them sell it. Those who can afford soap are rich. They don't care about money, they only care about whether the goods are good or bad. The people who do this business are poor and poor, and the situation is difficult, which is also their way of life."

This sounds reasonable, but Chen Wanrong still couldn't accept it, so he kept shaking his head. Zhao Xiaotian smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Chen, if you don't agree, I'll tell you something else. This matter is true, and it was sent back by our Youzhou Branch. There are three poor families in Youzhou who raised fifty taels of silver and sent one person to Luoyang to buy three soaps back to Youzhou. Each piece was sold for 80 taels, and they earned more than 100 taels of silver."

Chen Wanrong passed the poor days and shook his head and said, "There are endless people who can get fifteen taels of silver. Their methods are infuriating." Chen Laoshi ate the whole meal but didn't have the last meal, that's what he said.

Zhao Xiaotian disagreed with Chen Wanrong's statement: "Shopkeeper Chen doesn't know that these three families were three brothers, and they sold their property and a few acres of land, and only had enough fifty taels of silver. Now, after doing a few trips, they lived a good life. They not only bought back the sold acres of land, but also bought some more land. They opened a shop in Youzhou City and no longer did the business of selling soap."

After a pause, Zhao Xiaotian continued: "We have been out for many years. We have seen a lot of suffering from poor families and luxury families. The salaries of wealthy families are much better than the foods eaten by poor families. It is also a great merit to allow wealthy families to pay some money and help poor families. Manager Chen, this is the supreme merit!"

It's reasonable to say that, Chen Wanrong has learned about the luxury of the wealthy family. Not to mention anything else, when Ma Zhizhong invited him to drink for the first time, he ordered so many wine and dishes. Fortunately, Ma Zhizhong is pretty good and has not wasted. He can't eat this meal, so he will eat it next time. If he changes someone, he will definitely throw it away.

There are not many wealthy families like Ma Zhizhong, but more of them are people who like to waste. It is indeed a good thing to ask them to pay some money to give to the poor. However, Chen Wanrong had a doubt in his heart and said, "Although what Zhao Bottom said is reasonable, aren't those wealthy families going to do it?"

Zhao Xiaotian smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Chen doesn't know anything. Ma, Gao and Zheng's three families also discovered that they all agreed that they should buy soap for ten yuan at a time. In order to buy more soap, three people can buy thirty yuan at a time. This is right. However, the wealthy people disdained it. After making it one trip, it was only a few hundred taels of silver. In the eyes of the wealthy people, it was a small amount. For poor people, it was a large amount."

This is the reason. Chen Wanrong was just angry and didn't expect this. After his explanation, he suddenly realized it and held his fists and thanked him: "Thank you, Zhao Bottom reminder, thank you here."

Zhao Xiaotian held his fists and gave a brief greeting, and then praised him with a humble sentence: "Shopkeeper Chen, this shows that you are in good heart. Anyone who is in this situation will feel uncomfortable. It is difficult to ask him to turn a blind eye or close his eyes. Xiaotian admires you for having such a mind!"

Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Zhao Piaotou has been too much award, so he dare not take it, and he dare not take it."

Zhao Xiaotian continued: "The chief escort said that it is our honor to ask our Yanwei Escort Agency to be as simple as the one who has a promising future, and there is no reason to refuse. If our people leak the secrets and compensate 50,000 taels of silver, do you think?"

Fifty thousand taels of silver are nothing compared to the losses suffered by Chen Wanrong, but it is not much. The compensation is fair. Chen Wanrong nodded and said, "Yes."

Zhao Xiaotian changed his tone and said, "Shopkeeper Chen, the ugly words are ahead. In a house like you, there are really few escort agencies who dare to come to guard the house. This is obvious. It is said that trees are so popular that they are so popular that they are so popular that they are so arrogant. The more famous they are, the more people they are thinking about, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not use inconvenient means."

This is the point. Chen Wanrong is calm now, and no one has found out about this secret. It is because although the soap is good, it has only appeared for a while and its reputation is not very loud. When the reputation of the soap is famous all over the country, there are no people who want to steal it. Sooner or later, it is time to make some preparations.

Theoretically speaking, as long as there are a few people, you can watch it. However, if you encounter someone with powerful covetous eyes, you will be unable to deal with it without a tough backstage. If you dare to take on this escort agency, you will really not find a few companies in the Tang Dynasty.

"Thank you Zhao Batou to remind me. Zhao Batou, tell me, how much money do you want?" Chen Wanrong knew what he meant, and wanted to charge a considerable fee.

Sure enough, Zhao Xiaotian touched his beard and said, "Shopkeeper Chen is so serious. Generally, wealthy families have 300-two-month silver, so you need this number here." He stretched out five fingers and wanted to collect "security fee" of 500 taels of silver.

Five hundred taels of silver are not too much for Chen Wanrong now. Chen Zairong spent more than this amount of social engagements after he was promoted. Spending five hundred taels of silver to buy peace is better than anything else. Chen Wanrong nodded and said, "Silver is not a problem, but I still have one condition."

"Please speak with the shopkeeper Chen!" Zhao Xiaotian was very happy that Chen Wanrong was cheerful.

Chen Wanrong said with a serious look: "It's not just soap, you have to keep the secret. Even other things in my yard, you must look at them and not disclose them."

This condition is not too much. Chen Wanrong has several technologies in this family. Although they have not yet been formed or made into products, they will make a lot of money in the future.

Zhao Xiaotian nodded and said, "That's natural. Everything in the yard is under our care. Nothing will happen. Manager Chen can rest assured."

Chen Wanrong knew that he had misunderstood and corrected: "What I'm talking about is not money. These documents have been written in them, so I won't say much. I mean, I will make some more novel things in this courtyard. These things will definitely be sold at a high price in the future, and you have to keep them secrets."

Zhao Xiaotian pondered for a while and said, "No problem, I can promise you."

Chen Wanrong reminded him: "Can you make the decision?"

"Don't worry, the chief escort leader wants me to consider it." Zhao Xiaotian didn't even think about it. It must be that he had obtained the authorization of the chief escort leader.

Chen Wanrong then pointed out the topic and said, "What should I do if I have compensation?"

"As long as you sell soap so hot now, you will be compensated at 50,000 taels of silver." Zhao Xiaotian thought for a while before he said the conditions: "But, for each, we have to increase the silver for 100 and 2 months. From the time you start selling, we will guarantee as much as we have."

If you take risks, you should have income, and this requirement is not excessive. In the Tang Dynasty, without patent protection, it is really difficult to keep this technology confidential, so you just think it is spending money to buy an insurance. After all, the ones that can leak secrets are the ones from the escort agency. Although keeping secrets is the obligation of the escort agency, its effectiveness is more binding without spending money.

Besides, more than 100 taels of silver per month is nothing compared to Chen Wanrong's income, and it is not a burden. Chen Wanrong agreed happily: "That's it. I can tell you the truth that I can do a lot of things. By then, you can get thousands of taels of monthly silver from me."

This is very certain and makes people dare not doubt it. The reason why Yanwei Escort Agency took on this job was that they had inquired. Chen Wanrong had a lot of strange ideas and could always make money. If every increase was the same, they would charge 100 taels of extra monthly silver, it would not be necessary. Chen Wanrong only needs five or six things. They can get tens of thousands of taels of silver from Chen Wanrong in a year, which is a large amount.

There are not many chemical products that Chen Wanrong can make, at least dozens of them, and there is no exaggeration at all. Zhao Xiaotian's eyes were straightened and he asked in surprise: "Are you serious about this?"

"It's true!" Chen Wanrong blurted out without thinking.

I really didn't expect to dig the treasure, Zhao Xiaotian was so happy that he kept saying goodbye. Chen Wanrong said slowly: "Tao Zhao, to borrow your words, ugly words are ahead, I have another request. If I can't agree, I won't discuss this matter."
