To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough
Chapter 205 It’s Not Easy to Be the Richest Man in Ming Dynasty 17
Shen Rong was born into a merchant family, so he didn't have the aristocratic habit of not talking about money and waiting to be the biggest spender.
Shen Rong is a good talker: "In business, most of these bosses are bought at 4 taels each.
Even if you spend a few silver taels on food in a month, you can still earn two taels if I pay you 340 taels. This is a lot of money. I will come to you to buy a house or land for my family in the future.
If you think long-term and attract repeat customers, you will have everything! Besides, I am not picky, they are all capable workers. You only see their size.
That's a lot of food! Only the Shen family, with their few acres of thin land, can afford it. Who else would buy this? Boss, you're not losing out!
The boss was in a dilemma. It was definitely not easy to fool the Shen family. He was too careless and had forgotten what they did before. He was just showing off his skills in front of an expert.
The boss slapped his thigh and said, "Uncle, let's be frank. We have been to the countryside for a long time and we need to learn the rules when we come back. Uncle, add fifty taels and all these will be yours. There are four more children here and they are from the same family as the two you bought."
I will give it to the young master as a gift, so that they won't be separated. The mansion is a good place for them to live. I can also do good deeds and find a good family for them."
Shen Rong smacked his lips, knowing this was the lowest price he could get. He wasn't so ruthless as to separate someone's flesh and blood. This kind of thing depended on the host's kindness. Yahang wasn't a place for accumulating virtue and doing good deeds. If someone didn't bring it up, the host wouldn't know.
The last mention is also to praise the buyer and to prove that I am doing a clean business and attract repeat customers.
Shen Rong nodded: "Boss, you are very straightforward. I am not that cruel. I have pity on you. Then take them all away! Let's sign the contract and then go to the government office to get the red deed.
Yahang was a professional in this matter, and there was no need for Shen Rong to show up. They took the deed and the contract of sale to the yamen to get a red contract.
Shen Rong paid the full amount and took the indentures, then left the business with the others. The Shen family's mule cart, carrying seventy-two people, returned home in a grand procession.
Everyone who had just returned home had to take a shower and change clothes. Shen Yujin took out some insect repellent and poured it into the water. The tattered clothes these people were wearing also had to be burned.
It’s not that Shen Yujin discriminates against these people, but these people really have parasites, and almost everyone has lice, fleas, and roundworms.
Shen Yujin had already prepared quicklime in the toilet and also prepared oral anti-worm medicine.
Shen Yujin is a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder. He won’t say anything if you are wearing shabby clothes, but he really can’t stand you being sloppy.
Shen Yujin couldn't bear to see the sight of lice crawling on his body. His scalp tingled when he thought about it.
The Shen family may not boast about anything else, but they are probably the cleanest family in the entire Ming Dynasty. Even the Ming Dynasty's Crown Prince Zhu Biao could not find fault with this.
It’s not that the furniture is so luxurious, it’s that you can’t even find a speck of dust in the Shen family’s home.
The kitchens in the Shen family were all renovated by Shen Yujin. The stoves were made of specially customized ceramic tiles. The kitchen was kept clean and tidy using cement mortar and glutinous rice juice.
The Shen family's outhouse never had any strange smell. There was loess next to it, and the workers would spread the loess several times a day, so it was very clean.
The bathroom is even cleaner than the kitchen. Shen Yujin stipulates that both places must be cleaned after cooking and taking a shower every day.
The used dishes and chopsticks at home are boiled in a big pot every day for disinfection, and they are so clean that it is outrageous.
The people working in the kitchen wrapped their hair tightly with cloth, fearing that even a single hair would fall out. The Shen family didn't sell any of the soapberry trees on the hill behind their house; they kept all of it for their own use.
Shen Yujin took a bath twice a day without fail, and the daily expenses for firewood and coal alone were quite high.
This is because Shen Fu dotes on Shen Yujin. If an ordinary family had such a prodigal child, they would definitely be severely beaten!
The rat hole is even more non-existent. With Shen Yujin's powerful spirit, which rat would dare to settle in the Shen family? Then the whole family will be happy to win the elimination game.
As soon as this group of servants arrived at the Shen family, they were given a full range of cleaning and disinfection services.
The housekeeper sprinkled some medicine powder on their old clothes before letting them be thrown out and burned. He also learned bad habits. He used to think nothing of lice, but now Shen Yujin has infected him and he feels itchy when he sees anyone dirty.
This is the circle. One person with mysophobia will inevitably cultivate a bunch of other mysophobes. At least no one in the Shen family, from top to bottom, has ever had diarrhea.
The Shen family had never been affected by a disease as devastating as schistosomiasis. In ancient times, there were actually quite a few such diseases, but due to the lack of adequate testing, many people died inexplicably.
In ancient times, it was very rare to live to the age of seventy. There is an old saying that it is rare for a person to live to the age of seventy.
Shen Yujin watched the family members' nails being cut, and Shen Fushen believed that what his grandson said was right. Anyone who dared to disobeyed would be slapped and become obedient. Shen Yuzhen liked to show off Kou Dan, who had just grown and dyed her nails.
After being discovered by Shen Yujin, her long kodan was immediately changed to a short kodan, cut close to the roots. The little girl was very sad and wanted to cry.
Shen Yujin threatened the little girl with things like a bug was about to eat her mouth, and the little girl was so frightened that she held back her tears. It's always right to listen to your older brother when he's reading.
The servants of the Shen family all wore coarse cloth clothes, while the masters wore fine cotton clothes. Even those who were somewhat respectable like the housekeeper only wore ordinary cotton clothes.
He was low-key from head to toe. How could he wear silk and satin at home if he didn't go out or see guests? Shen Fu thought he had figured out the emperor's preferences. The emperor hated extravagance, so he'd better be frugal, otherwise he would be caught and sued.
It is better to be safe than sorry. Besides, the Shen family has already capsized once, so they cannot get into trouble twice in the same place.
These servants felt that the Shen family was a paradise, where they could wash themselves clean and wear new clothes. This was something they could not even imagine during the Chinese New Year.
Why wear coarse cloth instead of silk? You are so crazy! No matter your status, you are worthy of wearing silk! Eating brown rice and a big pot of cabbage stewed with vermicelli with oil floating on it, this is a first-class meal.
This is a first-class good host who provides unlimited food! I bought you back but I am not the boss. I also give you 200 yuan per month.
This is a great place to be, with plenty of food and warm clothes, and a new circle of houses across the courtyard. There's also a new set of bedding and a stove inside.
Even in the middle of winter, the house can be kept dry and the quilt is no longer damp. This is a good life that I could never have dreamed of.
This is how the poor people in ancient times lived. They couldn’t even afford to eat, and dignity was thrown behind their heads.
Those who can be bought are lucky. There are so many people who want to sell themselves as slaves but no one will buy them! Being bought by a family like the Shen family who doesn't beat or scold you must be very lucky in your previous life!
