Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 50: Village Massacre
"Uncle, cousin, when did you arrive? Why didn't you send someone to tell me in advance so I could come and pick you up?"

The next morning, at the Young Marshal's Mansion in the provincial capital, Guan Shaoqing went to the door and looked at Ren Fa and Ren Tingting who had suddenly arrived and said happily.

"Cousin, Dad and I are here to see you."

Ren Tingting happily ran to Guan Shaoqing and took his arm. It was midsummer, and Ren Tingting was wearing a white T-shirt with short sleeves and black overalls, revealing her white arms and slender, straight long legs. It was a pity that she didn't have black stockings, otherwise her legs would be amazing.

"We just arrived today. We thought you must be very busy these days, Shaoqing, so we came here directly." Ren Fa also said with a smile.

"We were quite busy recently with the army renovation, but now that it's complete, we've had some free time." Guan Shaoqing said with a smile, then invited them into the house and said, "It's hot, uncle, cousin, let's go in and sit down and chat."

"it is good."

Ren Fa nodded and immediately followed Guan Shaoqing into the Young Marshal's Mansion.

After entering the gate, Ren Tingting looked around curiously. She saw the mansion courtyards, pavilions, towers, waterside pavilions, singing stages, rockery and ponds. It was just like a big palace.

"Cousin, your place is so big, it's like a palace."

Ren Tingting couldn't help but speak up. Even with her wealthy family, she had never seen such a big mansion.

"It's not a royal palace, but it is where the princes and nobles lived in the past."

Guan Shaoqing smiled when he heard this and said that although this mansion was not a royal palace, it was where princes and nobles lived in the past. The overall architecture was in the style of Jiangnan gardens, and the area alone was more than 40 acres. It was simply unimaginable in later generations, especially in a place like the center of the provincial capital.

"This is where the big shots live."

Ren Fa couldn't help but sigh. Although he was a big shot in Renjia Town and even in Luoyang County, and his family's mansion was considered a wealthy one, only when he actually came to the provincial capital and saw Guan Shaoqing's mansion did Ren Fa feel the gap between the two.

"This will be my residence in the provincial capital from now on. If my uncle and cousin come over, they can just come here."

Guan Shaoqing also introduced them to the two with a smile.

"Doesn't your uncle live here with you, cousin?"

"Dad lives in the Governor's Mansion, and he handles many military and political affairs there on a daily basis."

Now that they have completely taken control of the provincial capital, Guan Shaoqing and his son have also determined their residences in the provincial capital. Guan Zongtang naturally lives in the Governor's Mansion, which was also the residence of the Governor of Guangdong East in the past.

Guan Shaoqing himself chose this mansion and turned it into the Young Marshal's Mansion.

"Uncle, try this tea, it's the best West Lake Longjing."

After entering the house, Guan Shaoqing warmly invited his uncle Ren Fa to sit in the living room.

Ren Tingting curiously wandered around the mansion.

“Good tea!”

Ren Fa's expression brightened after taking a sip. He was a tea lover, so he had a special liking for good tea and could also taste it.

"If uncle likes it, I still have a lot. I'll share it with you when the time comes."

"Then I won't be polite, uncle."

"."

"By the way, I wonder what brings my uncle to the provincial capital this time?" Guan Shaoqing asked again.

"There are indeed some things, mainly related to the clothing business. Last month's clothing sales have been released." Ren Fa said with a smile, and there was even an unconcealable joy in his eyes when he said this.

It was just last month that Guan Shaoqing and Ren Fanong's clothing company officially started operations and sales, and now a month has passed, and last month's sales have been released.

"Oh, I wonder how the sales are going. Judging from my uncle's expression, it seems that the sales are good?" Guan Shaoqing noticed the joy in Ren Fa's eyes and couldn't help but say.

"It's really good, even beyond our expectations." Ren Fa nodded excitedly, and then told Guan Shaoqing the data: "After one month, our clothing company's sales have successfully exceeded 700,000 yuan. Even after deducting costs and labor costs, the profit has reached at least 600,000 yuan."

"so much!"

Guan Shaoqing was also shocked when he heard this. He thought the sales performance of the clothing company should be good, but he didn't expect it to be so good. The profit of more than 600,000 a month, and this was only the first month. As the scale continued to expand, the profit would undoubtedly have a lot of room for growth.
Ren Fa also nodded excitedly.

"This profit is indeed shockingly high. Although a large portion of it comes from wealthy people attracted by your reputation, even if we deduct half of it, the remaining profit is still at least 300,000. And this is only the first month. As the scale continues to expand, it will definitely not be difficult to maintain this profit."

Guan Shaoqing then inquired about the specific sales situation and found out that stockings and other sexy clothing had the highest sales volume, accounting for as much as 40%.

Sure enough, the productivity of LSP can never be ignored.

Moreover, according to Ren Fa, many brothels have now begun to actively place orders for erotic clothing from their clothing store. These erotic clothing are simply in great demand in brothels.

"Next, I plan to expand the scale of the clothing company to cover the entire province, ensuring that at least every county in the province has a sales store of our company. Once the entire province is covered, we will continue to expand outside the province."

Afterwards, Ren Fa talked with Guan Shaoqing about the next development plan.

"Okay, let's follow your plan, uncle. No matter what, we'll keep all the profits within the entire Guangdong Province. As for other provinces, uncle can try to find some agents and wholesale the clothes to them at a low price. Then let them sell them in other provinces. They can decide the specific selling price themselves, and we only need to take the profit from the wholesale price."

"Also, we must ensure that there are no plagiarized or counterfeit products. If anyone else sells counterfeit products, please notify me immediately." Guan Shaoqing thought for a while and said, as a warlord, he must monopolize the business he created, because only monopoly can make the most money. If someone dares to pirate, he will definitely not be polite.

Guan Shaoqing even thought about getting a patent in the future, whether it was international or from the Qing court. Anyway, as long as he got the patent, he wouldn't have to care about the protection of the patent. As long as he had the excuse, anyone who dared to pirate him in the future would be punished.

Moreover, clothing is just Guan Shaoqing's first trial business. In his mind, there are still many businesses he wants to do, such as medicine and industry, and Guan Shaoqing is ready to do all of them.

But before that, Guan Shaoqing felt that there was something more important.

That is to go to Maoshan to receive the ordination.

Now that such a long time has passed, and the unified Guangdong East and the clothing company have become stable, it is time for me to show my strength to my master, Uncle Jiu, and go to Maoshan to receive the ordination.

After all, for a Maoshan disciple, having received a Taoist ordination certificate and not having received a Taoist ordination certificate are two different identities.

He stayed in the provincial capital for a few more days, and then when Guan Shaoqing was about to return to Renjia Town to find his master Jiu Shu to show his strength and go to Maoshan to receive the ordination.

Suddenly a piece of news came from his subordinates.

"Reporting to the young commander, a massacre occurred in Xin'an Huangjia Village. Hundreds of people in the village bled to death overnight, leaving no one alive. It is suspected that a ghost was responsible."

Upon hearing this, Guan Shaoqing immediately changed his mind about returning to Renjia Town.

After all, if there really was an evil ghost causing trouble, then that would be a lot of merit points for Guan Shaoqing.

For this reason, Guan Shaoqing has always asked his troops to keep an eye out for news about these evil spirits and ghosts, and to notify him immediately if they discover any.

"Send the order, gather the First Brigade of the Fifth Division and follow me to Huangjia Village, Xin'an."

Then Guan Shaoqing immediately gave the order.

"Yes."
-
Tread-tap-

Soon, the sound of horse hooves could be heard on the main road of the provincial capital.

Guan Shaoqing, dressed in military uniform, appeared on the street leading nearly 5,000 troops from the First Brigade of the Fifth Division under his command.

"It's Marshal Guan!"

"what happened?"

"Could something have happened?"

"."

When the crowd on the street saw the army led by Guan Shaoqing, they quickly retreated to both sides and couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"The White Lotus descends to the earth, and the people rise up!"

"The White Lotus descends to the earth, and the people rise up!"

"The White Lotus descends to the earth, and the people rise up!"

"."

At this time, a group of hundreds of White Lotus Sect members appeared in front of Guan Shaoqing's troops, shouting slogans all the way: "White Lotus has descended to the earth, and the people will rise up."

The two teams faced off instantly.

Guan Shaoqing stopped and grabbed the reins, looking at the White Lotus Sect members in front of him.

"Master Xiang, it's the Guan family's army, and the leader seems to be Guan Shaoqing, the young commander of the Guan family."

The expressions of the White Lotus Sect members changed instantly, and they looked at Guan Shaoqing, who was in the lead, and the Guan family army behind him with some fear.

"Young Marshal is doing something, you White Lotus Sect members, please get out of the way."

Wu Chenglong, who was following Guan Shaoqing, immediately scolded him.

Upon hearing this, the incense master headed by the White Lotus Sect quickly led his men to retreat to the side and try to please them.

"The White Lotus Sect will get out of the way now, please don't blame me, Young Marshal."

Guan Shaoqing couldn't help but speak after hearing this.

"This Guangdong is my Guan family's Guangdong. I don't care if you, the White Lotus Sect, want to deal with foreigners, but you must not commit crimes and harm the people."

After leaving these words, Guan Shaoqing no longer paid any attention to these White Lotus members and led his troops out of the city.

"Walk."
