Chapter 884 (1/2)
Even Chen ang did not expect that Zhu DAHAO's merchants could be so decisive and straightforward. They were used to wandering the caravan, so they packed it up very quickly, and the orders were neat and uniform, just like an army. If there was a fight, the emperor would enfew all countries this week. Except for the big countries such as Qin, Qin, Lu, Chu and Jin, half of the small countries and old states were not opponents of this caravan.
The merchant Zhu DAHAO also summoned his own sons and daughters who had become useful and those who had not become useful, and ordered: ”I want to dare to do a big business and earn great wealth, but there are many obscure, dangerous and uncertain places in it. Therefore, I call you here and let you choose. If you are willing to go with me, go pack your bags. If you are not willing, go out in vain and stay here!”
There was an uproar among the children and grandchildren of Zhu DAHAO merchant. When most of them were sensible, Zhu DAHAO merchant had earned so much family business and operated smoothly, so he didn't encounter such a setback. How did you expect to encounter such a difficult choice?
Many people immediately begged Zhu Qishu to give up such appalling acts.
But could Zhu Qishu be the ordinary children who could shake their minds? He just sneered. Under the accumulated prestige, someone began to shake. A grandson who was loved by him begged: ”Old ancestor, you want to do that big business. We can't stop you, but we have to leave some family property for our children and grandchildren. We can manage ourselves by dividing a few cattle and horses. How can we be swept out empty handed?”
As soon as this was said, many people agreed.
Unexpectedly, the merchant Zhu DAHAO just smiled coldly and said, ”this cow and horse are all my business capital. It's not enough. How can I waste it on you? I can write you a few letters so that you can use my accumulated contacts. In addition, every grass and tree, even a straw, are my capital. Whoever dares to move it, it will be the law of the family!”
Several worthless sons were stunned, and some people who knew the inside story shouted, ”father, when migrating cattle to Yiqu, you don't know how many people will freeze and starve on the way. Would you rather freeze and starve cattle and horses than leave them to your children?”
Instead, Zhu Qishu said with a smile: ”Those who freeze and starve on the road are the loss of my capital investment. Naturally, they have to be included in the cost. They can only try to reduce the loss, but it is a necessary loss. What I leave to you is not the cost, but the loss is outside the cost. It is not helpful to the business I want to do! Every bit of capital needs to be used on the blade in doing business. Now I take risks When you do that big thing at great risk, you naturally have to exchange your whole wealth for capital. Will you waste it in vain? ”
After all, Zhu Qishu only had a heart of stone, regardless of how hard his children and grandchildren begged. He still made a big gift to him with his oldest son, saying: ”I know that my father is in danger when he goes here. My father is willing to put all his wife and children's foundation on him to win a great wealth, but I won't pay for it. In that case, my father might as well entrust me with the industry he can't take away and explain the contacts he has been in business for decades. I will certainly help here. Maybe there is something useful for that big business!”
Zhu Qishu looked at his eldest son with wrinkles and very calm eyes, and suddenly smiled and said, ”you are still the most like me!” he entrusted the industry that could not be settled for the moment to him, and handed over his personal connections that he had operated for decades. In this way, the humble eldest son inherited his father's wealth.
Zhu Qishu called his children and grandchildren away and divided the family property, but only left the youngest young man with Chen ang. Only because he had already regarded this little son as a major capital of the business, because what he said in front of Chen ang, other children and grandchildren still had a chance to retreat. This son didn't even have a chance to get off the ship.
