Chapter 175 Warehouse
Li Anran, who knew that he would not be able to come back in a short time, left another message for his subordinates to go around the mountains, returned to the underground secret room of his own courtyard and traveled to the time and space of the Tang Dynasty with his bag.
"Meier, how is the matter on the commercial street?" Li Anran, who walked out of the retreating house, saw Su Xiaomei crawling on the desk and writing something, and then stepped forward and asked with a smile.
"There will be no problem with Yun'er over there. Otherwise, the news would have been sent back long ago." Su Xiaomei, who was keeping the bill, put down her pen, picked up a letter and said, "Young master, someone has sent another post to talk about the goods prepared for the Shangyuan Festival."
"Why? Someone else doesn't give up and wants to cooperate with me?" Li Anran, who knew what the other party was referring to, took the letter and looked at it. Unexpectedly, he found that another wealthy family, who was also preparing for the Spring Festival in the commercial street, saw the money for his products, so he wanted to talk about cooperation.
"Yes, who told the young master to bring all the things that are so good? If it weren't for the one in Chang'an City, I guess the only one who gave the post wouldn't be these little fish and shrimp. No, maybe even the posts would be too lazy to deliver them by then." Su Xiaomei, who covered her mouth and bent her eyes with a smile, said.
"So, remember to ask Yun'er to prepare a generous gift to give it to that person so that people can't tell you that we don't know the etiquette. By the way, those ministers will also give one as appropriate, just don't cross it." Li Anran, who threw the letter back to the table, said with a smile.
"I understand. Mei'er will make good arrangements and will never make mistakes in etiquette." Su Xiaomei, who had a bright smile on her face, said.
If this were the past, Su Xiaomei, who had a much simpler personality than Xiangyun, and had a weak and gentle personality, would not have seen these things so easily. But after being influenced by time and space, her brain was obviously much better than before. Not only was she much more efficient in self-taught modern knowledge, but her brain was also much more active.
But what satisfied Li Anran the most was that the other party's intelligence was not used in aspects that should not be used. On the contrary, I don't know why. With that strange feeling, I also found that the relationship between the two was closer than before.
"Can't it be that the runes in my mind have the effect of brushing closeness?" Looking at the pretty face with a bright smile, Li Anran couldn't help but guess.
Seeing that the other party had something to do and had nothing to do for the time being, Li Anran simply took Wang Youde to the newly built warehouse in the villa.
Unlike the warehouses in the villa before, this kind of warehouse, which is built with high-quality concrete, steel bars and even super thick steel plates is more appropriate than a warehouse, but rather a fortress.
This fortress is wrong, it is a warehouse from the outside. Although it is a little too square in shape, and it is a flat roof instead of a spire roof, there is nothing too conspicuous. But in fact, the strength of the entire warehouse is far more powerful than the city walls of Chang'an City.
At least Li Anran couldn't figure it out. In the time and space of the Tang Dynasty, in addition to using a lot of manual water grinding skills to slowly erode, who can enter this place that is more solid and incapable of "mouth" than turtle shells and hedgehogs in a short time?
Outside the warehouse, a hall for servants and workers to exchange and purchase goods with bills. However, those daily necessities and other things are still placed in ordinary warehouses. At most, several large cold storages transformed from containers are equipped, which is more than a little less safe in terms of safety.
This kind of elephant fortress is better than the elephant warehouse. It is a place specially used to store copper coins, silver, gold, jewelry, and so-called magic weapons and other high-value items. This place is not only strictly guarded, but the most important thing is that the doors that only the insurance warehouses can be used can not be opened by anyone.
Even if it is turned on, the pre-installed alarm system will be triggered as soon as possible. Although this system is a bit rough and can only serve as a simple reminder, it is enough for Li Anran at the moment.
Li Anran and Wang Youde, who led Wang Youde through layers of defense personnel and the vault gate, entered the warehouse. The moment the internal light was turned on, they were immediately blinded by the sudden golden light.
During this period, Li Anran never forgot another thing when doing other things. It is to use copper coins made in batches from modern time and space to exchange a large amount of gold through various channels. No matter whether it is gold cakes or gold jewelry, as long as it is gold, it will be exchanged and refined and then purified to make gold bricks.
Although gold does not belong to the category of normal currency in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty, it has already had a certain degree of liquidity. For example, it is made into gold jewelry, gold Buddha statues, gold god statues, and some gold decorations, even ritual vessels, sacrificial vessels, etc. However, some of the batch of gold collected by Li Anran was not exchanged through various channels.
"Butler, how is the mine?" Li Anran, who had adapted to the golden light, looked at the piles of gold bricks in front of him, and praised in his heart while asking.
"Report to the young master, it's okay at the mine, but according to the instructions below, there are already signs of being discovered." Wang Youde, who lived to such a age and had a lot less desire in all aspects than ordinary people, quickly calmed down his mood and replied.
"Haha... I didn't want to hide this matter at all. Anyway, that place was given to me by the True Dragon Emperor, and no one can say anything. I believe that even if someone is jealous, he will not be so stupid as to stretch out his hand." Li Anran walked to the pile of gold bricks and picked up a gold brick made entirely according to the purity and weight units of modern time and space, stroking it in his hand, and said with a smile.
The gold bricks that have not been polished are far less smooth than those found in movies and TV. However, even Li Anran, who is now not short of money, has to admit that it is very shocking.
"Young master, you still have to be cautious, just afraid that someone will..." Wang Youde, who has been worried a lot, reminded him.
"I understand, there are still a group of guards there who are guarding them. Housekeeper, please transfer your son back and go to the commercial street to do a manager." Li Anran, who knew that the other party was worried about, said with a smile.
"Ah? Thank you, young master, thank you!" Wang Youde was stunned for a moment, but he didn't know that it was his own young master who was considering his worries, so he quickly knelt down and saluted.
Although the importance of the commercial street is not as important as the gold mine that has been discovered for a while, Wang Youde is very clear about the importance of the commercial street and the farming center in his young master's mind. If he really can let his son go there to be a manager, his future achievements may not be worse than himself.
As for the idea of letting his son take over his work and continue to be the butler of Xiaoyao Villa, Wang Youde had never thought about it anymore when he was still in office. Just kidding, it would be generous if he was a fairy in the world who was in the world immediately removed his identity as a butler. Even if there must be some reason for doing this, he would not even think about it if he wanted to continue to occupy this position.
The reason why I sent my son to that gold mine to do business was not only to seek a background, but also to show my loyalty. Otherwise, for so many things, why bother to care about this? Seeing that the previous efforts were finally rewarded, how could Wang Youde remain calm?
"Dimme!" Li Anran, who had pulled the other party up before kneeling down, shook his head and said, "Butler Wang, you have worked hard for Zhuangzi during this period. You basically need to deal with all the big and big things. I see this credit. No one can take away what you deserve."
"Thank you... Thank you, Young Master." Wang Youde, who had confirmed once again that he had not left at the beginning, was the wisest decision in his life, still said excitedly.
