Chapter 130: No Long-term Considerations, Short-term Worries
"Grandma, not everyone who cries is right."
Wang Xingren said, "If whoever cries is right, then what is the point of laws and family rules? If anyone does something wrong, all they need to do is cry."
"How come you don't know how to be gentle with women?"
Old Madam Yang was also very angry. Why was her eldest grandson such a straight man?
"Grandpa, grandma, if it's all right, I'll leave first. I still have important things to do."
Lord Yang Wang asked, "Xingren, are you really planning to do business in the future?"
Wang Xingren didn't answer immediately, but after a while, he spoke, "Grandfather, how about we go outside and talk? I have something to say."
"Okay, let's go for a walk in the yard." Old Marquis Wang stood up and Wang Xingren hurried forward to support him.
Li He was unhappy again. Was there something he didn't want her to hear?
But this time she didn't dare show it.
When they arrived at the courtyard, Wang Xingren said, "Grandfather, you once fought with the late emperor and made great achievements, so the late emperor bestowed the hereditary title of marquis upon you.
Now my father has inherited the title and holds a military position. This is the third generation, and our Wang family has prospered for decades. It's long enough, and we should keep a low profile from now on.
If Xingyao likes to read, then let him read. It's not a big deal. But if his grandson can't read, then he won't be able to hold any official position in the future and can only be an idle marquis.
There is also the phenomenon that ministers in the court are basically intermarrying with each other, which will also make the emperor wary and suspicious.
Therefore, my grandson will not marry the daughter of an official in the court in the future, and plans to marry a girl from an ordinary family.
If possible, my grandson would like to move to a remote place far away from the capital."
When Lord Wang heard Wang Xingren's words, he was deeply touched.
In fact, he was also worried about these issues. Although Emperor Yongxing seemed to trust the Wang family, who could really tell what the emperor was thinking?
Even if Emperor Yongxing truly trusts the Wang family, what about the next generation?
Without long-term planning, there will be immediate worries. Who can guarantee that the next emperor will still have complete trust in the Wang family?
By the time the emperor becomes suspicious, it will be too late...
Old Lord Wang was very pleased. He didn't expect that his eldest grandson, who seemed to be idle and not studying hard, actually thought so deeply.
He said, how could his grandson be just an ordinary person.
Lord Wang nodded and said, "Okay, do as you wish. Grandfather supports you."
"Thank you for your understanding, Grandfather!"
Wang Xingren continued, "Grandfather, don't worry. I won't let the Wang family fall.
Although everyone looks down on merchants, who can live without them?
Merchants bring huge profits to the imperial court every year. Which major family doesn’t have business?
The grandson's plan is to donate a portion of the money he earns in the future to the court every year or directly to the emperor's treasury.
This will not only make the emperor feel at ease about our Wang family, but also prevent the emperor from forgetting our Wang family.
From now on, our Wang family will not be involved in government affairs, and ordinary people will not dare to do anything to the Wang family. Because our Wang family is making money for the emperor."
The more Old Marquis Wang listened, the brighter his eyes became. He then burst into laughter, "Hahaha...hahaha..., great! Great! Our Wang family will have our grandson to support it from now on. Grandfather is relieved!"
Lord Wang patted Wang Xingren on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead and do it. If you need any help, just ask Grandfather."
Wang Xingren chuckled and said, "Grandfather, I really need your help."
Lord Wang laughed and said, "You kid, it turns out you have a condom for your grandfather."
"Tell me, what do you need Grandfather to help you with?"
Wang Xingren said, "It's not a big deal. My grandson wants to expand his business and take it to other places. But he's short on manpower, and he needs reliable people."
Lord Wang asked, "Is it your braised meat business? It's not very profitable, is it?"
Wang Xingren said, "Grandfather, don't underestimate this braised meat business.
Food is the most important thing for people. Braised meat is not considered a good thing, but most people in this world are just ordinary people. Why do they need so many good things?
This braised meat is neither expensive nor cheap, but the profit is still considerable.
My grandson earned two thousand taels last month, and that’s just the beginning, and he’s only doing it in the capital.
If my grandson expands his business to various prefectures, he will earn a lot of money every month.
This is my grandson's first serious business venture, and he wants to learn from it."
Lord Wang asked, "How many people do you need?"
Wang Xingren said, "Thirty to fifty people will definitely want it."
Lord Wang said, "You go first. I'll send someone to find you later."
Wang Xingren quickly added, "We need some silver, too."
Lord Wang waved his hand and said, "Go ask your mother for it later. I'll tell her."
"Thank you, grandpa! I'll take my leave now!" Wang Xingren ran away happily.
Old Lord Wang looked at Wang Xingren running away, with a relieved smile on his face and eyes.
……
Wang Xingren returned to the yard where the braised meat was being made. By then, the manager had already bought the star anise and peppercorns that Zhang Dahua had requested.
The steward said to Wang Xingren with a guilty look on his face, "I didn't know that star anise and Sichuan peppercorns are different. It was my negligence."
Zhang Dahua interceded for the steward, saying, "This can't be entirely blamed on the steward, the prescription probably didn't state it clearly.
The star anise and Sichuan peppercorns the uncle bought are not the same, they just taste different, so the ratio should be adjusted.
Wang Xingren waved his hand and said, "It's okay, as long as we find the reason. From now on, just buy the spices Miss Zhang requested."
Half the morning passed. After lunch, Zhang Dahua taught the workshop staff how to make sausages in the afternoon. It was simple to make, and the key was the proper spice ratio.
Zhang Dahua also told Wang Xingren and the manager about the uses of dogwood. If there are customers who like spicy food, they can make some spicy braised meat and sausages.
Wang Xingren immediately asked the steward to buy some more dogwood, intending to try it himself to see how it tasted.
It only took Zhang Dahua one day to get the job done.
However, she cannot return to Changning County tomorrow. She needs to wait and see until she is sure that the braised meat made here is of no problem before she can leave.
In the evening, Wang Xingren invited Zhang Dahua to a restaurant for dinner, and then sent her back to Wu's house before leaving.
When they returned to the mansion, Li He had already left. Ye Hongling called Wang Xingren into the room and asked, "How much silver do you want? You didn't tell me you wanted it, and you asked your grandfather to come to me. What do you mean by that?"
Wang Xingren laughed frivolously and said, "I'm just afraid that my mother will beat me!"
Ye Hongling rolled her eyes at Wang Xingren and said, "Tell me quickly, how much silver do you need?"
Wang Xingren smiled and said, "I can't say exactly how much I'll need. I'll come back to Mom for it when I need it."
Ye Hongling then stared at Wang Xingren and asked suspiciously, "What did you talk to your grandfather about this morning? He seemed very happy to see you."
"Well, what can I say? Grandpa is just happy to see that I've made some progress!"
Ye Hongling was too lazy to ask. This bastard rarely told her the truth and always fooled her.
"Your grandfather said that I will give you as much silver as you want. Come to me for it when you need it."
"okay!"
