Chapter 1607 Success Philosophy
During the discussion between Han Yi and his friends, all the ninth-rank academicians Di Renjie and the technicians from the Ministry of Works had arrived. Han Yi didn't even have time to welcome them. As soon as they arrived, they immediately devoted themselves to their work.
Of course, Di Renjie and the others are also very willing to accept this job, because it is a rare opportunity for young people like them. Once successful, it will write a very strong mark on their resume.
Of course, Han Yi didn't have time to talk to Di Renjie and the others. He had to give Li Zhi a review the agreement reached with the merchants and the preliminary budget for the entire plan.
"I am very relieved to do your business!"
Li Zhi smiled slightly and put the memorial on the desk. If you look carefully, it is not difficult to find that there are dense beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead. This kind of account has far exceeded his understanding of accounts, various exchanges of interests, and various capital flows. He felt a headache after just looking at it. He simply looked at the results directly and felt that the expenditure was acceptable, so there was no problem. Of course, Han Yi did not directly say that the expenditure was 100,000 yuan, but gave the result of cost calculation, so that the ship cost and the money saved from the construction of the warehouse were offset.
After all, the money is much less.
Han Yi bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will do my best."
"You have always been like this!"
Li Zhi was very pleased to see Han Yi at this moment. This is the minister he hoped to meet. He did everything practical. He didn't know how to fight this and that all day long. It has no meaning to the country and the people. Only by comparing it can you have a deeper understanding. He said, "There is one thing, I want to hear your opinions."
Han Yi was as clear as a mirror, but asked, "I don't know what Your Majesty said?"
"It's about the variegated and varied things." Li Zhi said: "If I remember correctly, you never made any suggestions on this."
Han Yi pondered for a while and replied: "Your Majesty, I think this matter is reasonable. There are great disadvantages in the various colors. But if you don't add the selection, it's not considered."
Li Zhi said: "Then do you have a solution?"
Han Yi shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have no good idea. The most difficult thing in this world is human affairs. In fact, what kind of court is the best court? Everyone knows in their hearts that it is just difficult to get what they want. I think that this matter must be held and all the civil and military officials in the court will discuss it together. No matter what the result is, it will always be acceptable to everyone."
"You're right. The most difficult thing in this world is human affairs." Li Zhi nodded and said, "I have decided that in another half a month, I will set off to Chang'an."
Has he thought of a solution? Han Yi knew that Li Zhi had been dragging around here, and was not thinking about the various things, but about how to deal with Du and Li Zhi's dispute. However, he did not want to interfere with this matter, so he said: "Your Majesty, I still have many things to deal with here, I'm afraid."
Before he could finish his words, Li Zhi said, "This matter cannot be handled overnight. As the minister of the clan, you must participate in such a major matter. Then you will go back with me."
The emperor said so, how could Han Yi say anything else? So he said: "I obey the order."
"It's really the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop!"
When Zheng Shanxing heard the news that Li Zhi was going to return to Chang'an, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Actually, I was in Chang'an a few days ago, and I had already felt the atmosphere of black clouds covering the city and the city was about to be destroyed. From ministers to clerks, everyone was panicked. I wonder who do you think will be the winner?"
Han Yi shook his head and said, "It's really hard to make a judgment. If anyone bets with me, I will definitely not bet with him because I have no confidence. This increases officials and hurts those who have vested interests. After all, the cake is so big, but if the officials are streamlined, it will also hurt those who have vested interests. Who can guarantee that they will not be swept out of the house?"
Speaking of this, he paused and said, "Since we cannot change anything in this matter, we don't need to worry about it. Our main task at the moment is to handle the transportation of the canal. No matter how chaotic the court is, as long as the country and the people are not jeopardized, it will be allowed to go. Shangshu Yan and I will go back to Chang'an with His Majesty. At that time, I will leave the matter here to you and Di Renjie and others."
Zheng Shanxing nodded and said, "I will do my best."
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Han Yi tried his best to make all plans, so that he could let Zheng Shanxing and the others deal with it.
Tomorrow morning, Han Yi will leave Luoyang and go back to Chang'an. Xiaopang and the others are busy preparing for the salute. After all, they are leaving with the emperor. This has to be prepared early, but they cannot be late.
Han Yi and Wu Wenxuan came to the street outside. It was already night now, and the surroundings were quiet, but occasionally you could hear the chirping of crickets.
"Xiao Wu, during this period, I have praised you countless times. I won't praise you before leaving." Han Yi smiled slightly.
Wu Wenxuan hurriedly said, "Wenxuan knows that there are many shortcomings, but Wenxuan's experience in business is still shallow and not enough to examine himself. I hope the owner can help Wenxuan point out this shortcomings."
"Actually, you did a good job, and in terms of management, it is already impeccable, at least that's what I think." Having said this, Han Yi changed his tone, "but it should still be lower than my expectations of you. Being by my side, the most reassuring thing is Sangmu, and the second is you. Do you know why I ranked Sangmu before you?"
Wu Wenxuan said: "How can I compare to the Sangmu General Manager."
"No, no! Don't compare this business with others. It has no meaning. The most interesting thing about business is that everyone can do it, whether it is a good person, a bad person, a bad person, a irritable or a gentle person, and it is possible to succeed. Look at Xiaopang, Shen Xiao, Andy Lau, and others. Their business methods are very different, but they all have achieved success, but they have one thing in common, that is, their success is integrated into their own characteristics."
Speaking of this, Han Yi looked at Wu Wenxuan and said, "And your biggest problem is that you have not played your own characteristics. You are too persistent to me. You are my Han Yi person. Beixiang has achieved such success, but your Wu Wenxuan's position in Luoyang is far from worthy of the success you have achieved. Everyone blames me for success, which makes me a little disappointed. I sent you to Luoyang in the first place because I hope you can stand alone, and not just in business, but more about you Wu Wenxuan."
Wu Wenxuan frowned and said, "Official Master, I don't know much about this. In fact, Beixiang belongs to you, and I am helping the owner, so I don't think there is any problem with this."
Han Yi said: "The problem is big. I have countless capable generals in my hands, but now there is only Sangmu, and the real commander must have the ability to be unbearable to the outside king's order. If you don't have this ability, you will definitely not be able to be the commander. Moreover, the most taboo thing in business is to put all the eggs in a basket. Now our Bei Lane is like this, and I support it alone. If I encounter trouble, the entire Bei Lane will be paralyzed and no one can support it.
Sang Mu is experienced in doing things, but his cultivation is far inferior to you. After all, he has not been studying for a few years. He can become the boss of a businessman, but he does not have the cultivation to deal with high-ranking people. And this is your advantage. I hope that in the near future, the name Wu Wenxuan will reach an important level in Luoyang, so that he can help me when I am in crisis, or when I am not around, he can handle it freely.
I have also explained some matters about the canal transportation, and these matters are mainly dealing with the Prince of Pingyang and others. I hope you can improve your status and reputation from it, so that you can know that Wu Wenxuan is a special businessman, a businessman who has read the books of sages. Just like Zheng Shanxing, even as a businessman, he can face anyone confidently and calmly, and when he speaks, everyone listens carefully."
Wu Wenxuan was slightly shocked and looked at Han Yi with great anxiety.
Han Yi smiled and said, "What? I'm afraid I'm testing you?"
"Oh, no."
"Okay, I understand what you think in your heart, because if it were me, I would think so. Can the owner feel at ease when you are alone in Luoyang and manage such a big deal? Will the owner be afraid that you will take all of these for yourself?" Han Yi said, and waved his hand and said, "But you don't need to worry about these at all, because there is no need. Although I trust you very much, it has nothing to do with trust. Even if you take Beixiang for yourself, so what? The reason why I succeed is not because of the secret, but because of perfume, drama, paper, and gold. If you can't take these things, you can't take them away. Beixiang is just a body, meaningless!
As for money, even if you take away all the money in Beixiang, it is much less than what you get after you stay. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about whether I will think too much, or even never worry, because this is impossible. The more capable you are, the greater your influence, and the higher your status, the happier I will be, because you can help me more. In the future, officials and businessmen will inevitably deal with them frequently, and this is your advantage. You are capable of becoming the number one figure in Luoyang, and this is also my expectation for you."
After hearing this, Wu Wenxuan pondered for a long time, "Master, I understand."
Han Yi nodded with a smile.
The two walked on the street for nearly two hours before returning to the courtyard. At the beginning, they saw Xiong Di standing in the middle of the courtyard.
Han Yi walked up and patted his shoulder, saying, "What are you thinking?"
Brother Xiong slowly turned around and said, "Brother Han, when did I buy so many things?" As he said that, he pointed his fat hand to the left.
Han Yi turned his head and saw more than a dozen wooden cars over there, and some people were busy putting the goods on there. "Wow, there are really a lot!" He looked at Xiong again and said, "You don't know what you buy yourself?"
Brother Xiong shook his head and said, "I buy some when I go out to play with Brother Shen every day, but I didn't expect there would be so many."
Han Yi was amused and laughed: "I think this is a little less. You can calculate how many gifts we are going to give, what is this."
Brother Xiong said seriously, "Brother Han, I don't think it's too much if you say that, hehe."
In fact, he didn't buy a lot of things for him. He mainly bought some food, which was for Meng'er and the others. This was also a key reason why he was successful. He always thought about others in his heart. He couldn't recite the letter, which was much worse than Ono. However, when he opened the bear shop, he could remember the names, tastes, and how much they were used to eating. Ono couldn't even remember the names of the shopkeepers in Beixiang because he didn't remember them.
It can be seen that everyone has their own talent. As long as you use your talent to your own field and use your talent well, success is no problem. But first of all, you must have confidence to try and accept failure, so that you can find a field that suits your talent.
"Xiao Pang, haven't you done it yet? Huh? Han Yi, are you back?"
Shen Xiao suddenly walked over.
Han Yi glanced at Shen Xiao and said, "You don't have to worry about Xiaopang. You should check if your own things are ready."
Shen Xiao said with a slight silly: "I only have two sets of clothes to change. I don't need to prepare anything else. Anyway, there are everything in Chang'an."
He also planned to go to Chang'an with Han Yi because he was about to go back to Yangzhou. Before that, he wanted to meet Meng'er and the others, and had fun for two months, and casually asked Shen Gui if he was going back with him.
Han Yi sighed: "It's really unfair. Everyone is rich. Why can you live so freely and I live so tired."
"Ha ha!"
The next day, before dawn, Han Yi and the others set out from Beixiang. They had to go to Ximen to wait for the emperor first. When they arrived at Ximen, Xu Master, Lu Chengqing, and Yan Liben were already there.
"Shangshu Han, you have a lot of things!"
Lu Chengqing looked at the long convoy behind Han Yi that day and couldn't help but smile.
Han Yi shrugged and said, "There is no way, you have money and willful."
Lu Chengqing and the other two looked at each other and laughed.
"Knowing, joke!" Han Yi smiled and said, "Actually, this is the goods to be shipped to Chang'an, so I'll take them there."
Lu Chengqing was not interested in knowing this, and smiled and said, "Your Majesty is in a hurry to go back this time, just to deal with the varied and influential matters. I wonder what Secretary Han thinks about this?"
Han Yi asked back without answering, "I wonder how Shangshu Lu thinks?"
Lu Chengqing certainly knew the principle of throwing bricks and attracting jade, so he said, "It's hard to say about this matter. Both Li Zhongshu and Du Zhongshu both have certain reasons. Although I am from a gentry, it is undeniable that the previous selection of selection is indeed unfair to poor families. However, if you don't add selection, it would be even more inappropriate. It will not only overcrowd the various offices, but also easily introduce some people with unrighteous intentions into the court."
Master Xu and Yan Liben also nodded.
The three of them looked at Han Yi again.
