When the businessman surnamed Fang heard Zhang Xiaobao's words, his first reaction was not to ask Zhang Xiaobao, but to look around nervously. Seeing that there were no outsiders nearby, he lowered his voice and said, "Young Master Zhang, do you have time later? I would like to invite Young Master Zhang and his wife to eat something in a secluded place. "
Looking at the other party's overreaction, Zhang Xiaobao and Weiwei shook their head, "I don't have time. I still have to build a house for Shui Yun and her husband, so I'll skip the meal. Do you want to make money?"
"Yes, very much. Young Master Zhang is busy and takes care of a lot of things every day, but there are too many people around. If someone with bad intentions knows, then …?"
Fang Dongjia was clear in his heart. Although Zhang Xiaobao just praised him for paying a lot of taxes and said that his Shannan Tiger Skin Manufacturing and Marketing Group was big, but compared to other people's business, it was not enough. What was 6 million? It was only 60,000 strings of cash. How big could the group be? The taxes that other people paid in a quarter could buy several groups of his own.
It was very difficult to invite Zhang Xiaobao to eat a meal. It was not enough to just have a little money. There were many people richer than him. If he invited all of them, Zhang Xiaobao would not need to do anything else but accompany him to eat every day.
But Fang Dongjia did not want to share with others, so it was very difficult for him.
Zhang Xiaobao sighed and said to Fang Dongjia, "Fang Dongjia, you can't eat by yourself. After listening today, if you have any friends in the business world, you can contact them. Don't worry, I won't lie to you."
"Ah? Big business? " Fang Dongjia was stunned, then suddenly understood, "Yes, yes, yes, unless Young Master Zhang doesn't do it, it will naturally not be a small business. Young Master Zhang, don't misunderstand. I didn't say that you lied to me. I still know you. My business is not harmful, and you won't attack me. Can you tell me in detail?"
Fang Dongjia couldn't imagine how big of a storm Zhang Xiaobao would stir up this time. The only thing he knew was that Zhang Xiaobao wouldn't make a move against him. He still understood Zhang Xiaobao's style of doing things very well.
Whether it was a merchant of the Great Tang or an outsider, as long as they did business in the Great Tang, it was fine to buy at a low price and sell at a high price. It was also fine if there was a shortage of goods in a place that were not for the livelihood of the people, but it was forbidden to deliberately interfere. If one didn't speculate in goods related to the livelihood of the people, he wouldn't care, but if one really did, one could only wait to go bankrupt.
Some people hated him, some loved him. They hated him for being a busybody, but they loved him for having a high moral character. There were even more worshippers who worshipped him as a god-like existence in the business world.
Thinking of this, Fang Dongjia recalled what he had done and found that he had not crossed Zhang Xiaobao's bottom line. Thus, he was not afraid. He just wanted to know how much money he had invested and how much he had earned.
As the two of them approached each other and whispered, the gazes of those who were slightly further away immediately swept over. Seeing Zhang Xiaobao, they couldn't see anything, but seeing Fang Dongjia's expression, they knew that something good had happened.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't care if others could hear them. It was best if more people were eavesdropping, whether it was a friendly party or someone who secretly wanted to deal with him. It didn't matter. He wasn't afraid that someone would do something bad. Whoever dared to do it would come.
Thus, Zhang Xiaobao's voice was slightly louder, but the penetrating power was stronger.
"Fang Dongjia, do you know that there is an island in the Great Tang that is sought by famous people?"
"I know, I know. Is my leather goods seller going to sell there?" Fang Dongjia didn't understand.
"You can buy furs on the island. Besides animal furs, there is also fish furs. You can also directly invest money in it. After a year, when there is a profit, contact your friends and cooperate with them. It is guaranteed that you will make a profit and not lose money. If I wasn't worried about causing too much of a stir, I would just give a call and the merchants of the Great Tang would probably start fighting."
Zhang Xiaobao pointed to the east where there was a sea and said to Fang Dongjia.
Fang Dongjia heard Zhang Xiaobao's voice and was secretly distressed. The people nearby must have heard it. For a moment, he was anxious and helpless.
"Young Master Zhang, how much is it?"
"The initial investment is five million strings of strings of cash. Can Fang Dongjia handle it alone?" Zhang Xiaobao emphasized the five million strings of cash.
When the people nearby heard this, their eyes widened at almost the same time. Takeshita Junichiro, who had just arrived, also pricked up his ears. What a large amount. Just the initial investment was five million strings of cash.
Fang Dongjia shook his head vigorously. "I can't handle it, but I can find someone to raise it. Can Young Master Zhang tell me more about it?"
"I can't. There are too many details. If you believe me, take the money. If you don't, stay away." Zhang Xiaobao showed an unhappy expression. He turned his head to look at the house built for Shui Yun and her husband. The house was being built to a height of ten zhang. He didn't know what height Shui Yun had in mind.
"I believe you. I'll go find someone to discuss it. If the money isn't enough, Young Master Zhang, when you find someone else, you must bring me along." Fang Dongjia knew that he had misspoken. After explaining, he didn't dare to disturb Zhang Xiaobao. He lowered his head and walked out in large strides.
Takeshita Junichiro looked at Zhang Xiaobao and then glanced at the house. After a moment of consideration, he chased after Fang Dongjia.
Zhang Xiaobao glanced sideways at Takeshita Junichiro's back and shook his head. He said to Wang Juan, who was looking over, "I thought it would take a lot of effort. I was worried about how to get him to fall into the trap. I didn't expect him to come in by himself. You won't blame me, right?"
"Is there a difference? Your purpose is to get him in. Whether he takes the initiative or not, don't act so innocent while scheming. Shui Yun, is that okay? "
Wang Juan said a few words to Zhang Xiaobao with a smile. She turned around and asked Shui Yun, who was waiting for her new home.
Shui Yun didn't answer directly. Instead, she flapped her wings and gradually flew away. After a while, two different eagle cries came from the sky. The Shui Yun couple, one red and one white, appeared under the cloth of the hot air balloon. They circled around the shelf a few times and both landed in front of Zhang Xiaobao. Shui Yun nodded.
"Oh! I understand. " Zhang Xiaobao also nodded. "Shui Yun, I don't want to criticize you, but it's wrong to be afraid of your wife. Is the height of the house enough? Can't you just say a word? You have to discuss it with your wife. It's too embarrassing for a man. You must have the final say on important matters. You can't be spoiled. "
Shui Yun was fine with simple words, but after Zhang Xiaobao finished speaking, Shui Yun was confused.
"I love to hear my husband's words the most, husband ~! Tell this concubine, what is a big matter? "Wang Juan, who was at the side, held Xiaobao's arm and asked in a sweet voice.
"The important matter is when I let the second sun come out. Okay, this is the height. Reinforce the bottom. Don't let the wind blow it down and hurt the children. I'll only ask you."
Zhang Xiaobao puffed out his chest and answered Wang Juan boldly. Then, he directed the construction team again.
After he was done talking about the construction team, Zhang Xiaobao turned to Shui Yun and said, "Ask your wife what kind of straw to use as a nest. If she thinks straw is hard, then there's also cotton. Someone, bring all the things we prepared here and let Shui Yun choose."
