Chapter 41

Work hard for twenty days and buy a house in three years! (First update!)

The first and second days of the lunar month were not the time to visit Zeng Gongliang. On the third day of the lunar month, Zhang Jin and his two younger brothers came to visit Zeng Gongliang. As expected, Zeng Gongliang had no time to talk to them. He only met them briefly and then went to entertain the visiting guests. After that

He even went out to visit Shangguan.

Zhang Heng enjoyed his leisure time and chatted with Zeng Xiaokuan and his brothers, and then he and Zhang Xuan returned to their home.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, they got busy and started setting up stalls at Daxiangguo Temple.

On New Year's Eve, on the first, second, and third day of the lunar new year, everyone has too much fat in their stomachs and can't eat at all. On the fourth day of the lunar new year, you can try to buy egg-filled cakes. Of course, the business can only be considered average, but you can still sell a few

After a hundred cakes, Zhang was still very happy, thinking it was a good start to the new year.

Starting from the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, business slowly picked up. The time off for Taipei students was similar to that for officials. Officials in the Song Dynasty were very happy, because the "Xiu Mu system" of the Song Dynasty not only basically followed the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, but also had different vacation times.

It has even been extended.

On the basis of the system of "ten days off", the first day of the year, the winter solstice, and the seven-day cold food holiday, they also created new festivals such as "Tianqi Festival" and "Tianqing Festival" (the birthday of the emperor's mother), and they must take holidays on all holidays.

.

In addition, family leave is no longer once every three years. Instead, on December 20th of each year, all government offices will "seal" their official duties, and all officials at all levels will stop working and go home to celebrate the New Year. They will not be allowed to leave until the 20th of the first lunar month of the following year.

Return to the Yamen "Open Printing" office.

Therefore, the three brothers can run their business until the 19th day of the first lunar month and wait until the 20th day of the first lunar month before returning to Taixue to attend classes.

Starting from the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, their business has returned to normal, even to the point of booming. Because of the holidays, there are almost a lot of people visiting the Daxiangguo Temple. Since they come out to play, they basically have to play all day long, at noon

He probably wouldn't go home to eat anymore. The egg-filled pancakes were delicious and made them very hungry, so more people bought them. Zhang Heng had to replenish eggs and firewood three or four times a day.

Although the three brothers are so busy every day that they are almost exhausted, the smiles on their faces have never disappeared. Even Zhang Shu, who wants to be lazy the most, can't help but feel happy when he sees the daily income.

Become more motivated.

Zhang Jun put forward a slogan: work hard for twenty days and buy a house in three years.

Zhang Heng could only smile bitterly at this.

This business seems to be booming, but you can only work for a few days. Even if you earn dozens of dollars a day, buying a house within three years is still a luxury.

The thing is such a thing, but the words are not inspiring.



Chang Li is very busy.

From the 20th of the twelfth lunar month to the twentieth of the first lunar month, this month is the golden month for the Bianjing hotel industry. In this month, their profits can reach 30% of the year.

Bianjing people are extravagant, and for officials, scholars, and major families, entertaining guests is a necessity.

At the end of the year, all major government units will hold tail-burning banquets, major colleges will also host teachers, and families will organize their shopkeepers to hold tail-burning banquets... Anyway, as long as it is an organization, it must hold a tail-burning banquet to complete the relationship.

Summary of the year;

In private, fellow officials entertain each other to have banquets to build a good relationship, and subordinates treat their superiors to a banquet, hoping to promote him a little next year, so that at least they can build a good relationship.

The subordinates want to entertain the superiors, and the superiors also need their subordinates. Last year, they used cattle and horses to serve the subordinates. After the spring, they have to continue to use them. The subordinates will inevitably feel special. Please have a meal, have a workplace pua, give the cattle and horses... no,

The subordinates feel comfortable after being massaged, and they will be able to take care of them with peace of mind again next year.

As for students, they also want to make friends, and having a wide circle of friends is a compliment. This will also be of great benefit to them in the officialdom in the future. Especially those with good backgrounds will spend money like water and constantly entertain classmates who they think have potential...

Most of these are concentrated in this short month.

Therefore, Chang Li is very busy.

For him, there is no Spring Festival. All work that needs to be maintained in the family will have to wait until the twentieth day of the first lunar month. This is also the practice that the Chang family has formed for hundreds of years.

But in the midst of his busy schedule, Chang Li still had to ask the shopkeeper every day: "Has Zhang Heng not come to the store for a banquet yet?"

The big shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said: "Don't worry, boss, once he comes, I will definitely go back and notify you!"

Chang Li nodded.

The big shopkeeper asked curiously: "Master, if you have something to say, I don't know whether I should ask it or not?"

Chang Li said: "When you ask this, you know you shouldn't say this."

The big shopkeeper and he were friends when they were young, so naturally he would not be blocked by these words and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will ask, why does the boss value this Zhang Heng so much? Although he is now famous, we need to do this

Are you trying to catch him? We are Fan Lou. With our reputation, do we still need to continue to be famous? "

Chang Li glanced at him and said seriously: "Old Tong, your words make me doubt your ability."

Shopkeeper Tong was shocked: "Why, is there anything I haven't seen through yet?"

Chang Li chuckled: "Normally speaking, Fan Tower has been glorious in Bianjing for hundreds of years. There are few people in the Song Dynasty who don't know about Fan Tower in Bianjing. Even the barbarians who came to the Song Dynasty had to come to Fan Tower. But, you have to

You know, Fan Lou also had his time to catch up with others, and where is the number one at that time? Are they not as good as we are today?"

Chang Li shook his head and continued: "Of course not, it's because they were surpassed by our Fan Lou! So, do you think Fan Lou is naturally number one?

You have been with me for so many years, don’t you know how Fan Lou widens the gap with other restaurants?”

Shopkeeper Tong narrowed his eyes: "Liu Yong?"

Chang Li nodded and said: "Liu Qibian made Fan Lou what it is today, and Zhang Twenty-four, how dare you say that he can't create another miracle in Fan Lou?"

Shopkeeper Tong took a breath. He could see that Chang Li valued Zhang Twenty-four, but he didn't expect that Chang Li valued Zhang Heng so much and even compared him to Liu Yong...

Chang Li frowned and thought hard.

He hasn't come to Fanlou for so long. Why?

Zhuo Mingzhong said that since his disciple's family was poor, he could not afford the banquet.

In this case, wouldn't it be nice to come to Fanlou? It gives me face and benefits. If he needs it, I can go out and support him. This is what I want. Why doesn't he come?

Doesn't he need a banquet?

Impossible, absolutely impossible. As long as you are a scholar, there is no need to socialize. Even if you are not a person with a wide circle of friends, you should have a few good classmates, right?

This is unreasonable!

This... there is only one possibility, that is, he has been taken advantage of by other restaurants!

Chang Li felt anxious.

No, I have to take the initiative!

Is it worth a ticket to get up at 7 o'clock to code?
