Chapter 159 Christie's
After learning that Su Dalang had worshipped Du Yongde as his teacher, Wu Haogu couldn't help but frown.
Because he also knew that Du Yongde was very old and should be a waiter in terms of seniority, but he was robbed of this position by himself. It is conceivable how he felt.
When he went to the palace yesterday, he didn't see this old man Du, and I don't know if he was sulking from home?
Just as he was about to inquire about Old Man Du’s attitude towards him, a junior, Su Dalang spoke first: “I’m not to hide it from Brother Chongdao, my family master has long been determined to win this preceptor. He started planning after Chen Youwen took office, but he didn’t expect that he would fail.”
Wu Haogu smiled bitterly: "But I have never asked for a direct assistant to the prefect."
Su Dalang smiled slightly: "This is fate... Not to mention my master, let's talk about Brother Chongdao's business. 50,000 pieces have been deposited into the Pan family's gold, silver, silk and silk shop, and can be transferred to your name at any time."
The 50,000 yuan was the money for investing in the calligraphy and painting business. I just talked about my investment intention in Fengle Building before, and did not immediately hand over my personal friend to Wu Haogu.
"Don't worry, don't worry." Wu Haogu waved his hand and said with a smile, "The business is still in the process of creating a plan, the charter has not been established, and the airs have not been set up."
The calligraphy and painting business is still on top of concepts and creativity!
Wu Haogu has only been back to Kaifeng Prefecture for a few days, so where can I have time to turn a business idea into a real business entity?
For Wu Haogu, who has the vision of later generations, it is easy to create but it is much more difficult to realize!
"Dalang," Wu Haogu looked at Su Dalang who had congratulated him on his wealth, and smiled, "I came here today to discuss the articles of association and airs of the business bank... Our business bank is not a boss, but has many shareholders, so we must have a special articles of association and an airs of office management."
After hearing Wu Haogu's words, Su Dalang frowned slightly: This seemed a bit troublesome...
There are now joint stock trading banks, but they are mainly family-based. Although many people in the clan have shares, the final say is the patriarch and the chief manager of the trading bank. The "Su family jealous" of Su Dalang's family has been operating for more than a hundred years.
Sometimes, a business led by a certain family will also absorb investments from people with foreign surnames. However, it will not allow shareholders with foreign surnames to participate in the management, but will only distribute dividends to people with foreign surnames.
As for the business where several relatively equal shareholders participate in the operation, there are not many, but there will always be various disputes and end up with unhappiness.
Wu Haogu was talking and looked at his father Wu Chengyi's eyes. The father and son had no time to have a good talk about the operation of the joint stock trading company.
Speaking of which, the relationship between the father and son is really a bit cold.
Wu Haogu turned his head and continued: "First of all, the joint stock trading bank is not a one-person industry. I only occupy 50% of the shares now, and it will definitely decrease in the future. Therefore, the trading bank must have a rule that a group of shareholders discuss major events... Therefore, the first thing to be put forward should be the shareholders' airs."
"Stock shareholders' meeting..." Su Dalang nodded, "Who has the final say in the shareholders' meeting?"
"Vote," said Wu Haogu, "you can split the shares of the commercial bank into two hundred shares, one share per vote."
The commercial bank that Wu Haogu is preparing to establish will have 200,000 yuan in equity (the paid-in capital is not that much), and he will split it into 200 shares based on one thousand yuan in equity, so that the shareholders' meeting will have a total of 200 units of voting rights.
"Then the shareholders' meeting can discuss the matter?" Su Dalang continued.
"One is the articles of association of the commercial bank; two is the candidate for the shopkeeper and the general manager of the accounting firm; three is the major expenditure matters; four is the review of the commercial bank's accounts; five is the decision to distribute dividends from the commercial bank; six is the absorption of new shareholders... These six matters are now. If there is any need to increase in the future, the shareholders' meeting will discuss and vote."
Wu Haogu is not a serious businessman, and he can only cross the river by feeling the stones when it comes to how to build a joint-stock business.
Fortunately, what he is going to enter now is a high-profit industry from ancient times to the present, and does not require too much fine management.
"How should the Regulations of the Trading Company be decided?" Su Dalang continued to ask.
Wu Haogu said: "I haven't thought about all this, so I will mention a few things now: First, the business behavior is shared by many companies; Second, if a commercial bank suffers losses, the stock will be lost until it loses, and it has nothing to do with the rest of the shareholders' property; Third, the procedures for dissolution of the commercial bank; Fourth, the provisions for the financial management of the commercial bank; Fifth, the authority of the shareholders' meeting of the commercial bank; Sixth, the authority of the principal manager of the commercial bank; Seventh, the authority of the general manager of the commercial bank; Eight, the provisions for hiring and dismissing employment..."
"Loss?" Su Dalang couldn't help laughing after hearing Wu Haogu's words, "How is it possible? You are the first person in the painting Imperial Palace, or the first person in the painting Imperial Palace... How could you lose?"
It's really unlikely!
The collection of calligraphy and painting is different from other industries. Most of the people who spend a lot of money in this industry are "good people". They do not "really understand" the good and bad things - most of them do not understand them and have to pretend to understand them - so they have to listen to authoritative experts.
Wu Haogu had the "first person in the painting" and "the emperor's title" (this was granted by the emperor), which was a great authority that could be on par with Mi Fu and Wang Shi.
He said good things, and said real things, that thing is good and real!
If he wrote the inscription and stamped on those second-rate and third-rate paintings, the painting would immediately increase by ten times!
Most of the time, the authoritative experts in later generations have to look for Wu Dalang's signature and seal on calligraphy and paintings... If you find it, things are the best!
I can still lose money in this way. How stupid is Wu Haogu?
Wu Haogu also laughed and looked at Su Dalang and said, "Isn't you really going to lose?"
"No, it's impossible," Su Dalang said, "It will definitely make a lot of money!"
"Definitely earning?"
"Yes! Absolutely!"
"Then...how about you being the boss?"
As soon as Wu Haogu said that, Wu Chengzhi, who was sitting beside him, turned a little blue.
How can outsiders be the boss of the Wu family’s business? Even if Wu Haogu is too busy and does not take the power personally, he should let his father take action!
"Me?" Su Dalang also felt that it was not very good, so he turned his eyes to Wu Chengzhi, "No, this is not possible, this is your business..."
Wu Haogu also glanced at his father's corner, and it made sense that the shopkeeper would not give it to his father!
Dad Wu actually doesn’t know how to do business, otherwise Wu Hao’s ancient soul wouldn’t have squatted in the prison when he came through.
Moreover, Wu Family Painting Zhai has been in the hands of Wu Chengzhi for so many years, and has been living a life of life just by relying on the merits of his ancestors. Otherwise, how could the transaction left by Wu Zongyuan not be able to be taken out even if it was tens of thousands of dollars?
On the other hand, Su Dalang was a good businessman. He was not a calligraphy and painting business, but he rushed in. He also seized the opportunity of Wu Haogu singing and selling "Drunk Arhat Picture" in his teahouse, and turned the Su family teahouse into the first teahouse on Panlou Street, and it was also the only place in Kaifeng Prefecture to sing and sell calligraphy, painting, and cultural relics.
This is the ability!
In addition, according to Wu Haogu's observation, Su Dalang is still a special person who can make connections, and his ability to flatter is definitely not inferior to that of Master Ji. If he was asked to be the shopkeeper, he would definitely be able to coax the great god, Duan King Zhao Ji.
"It's you! This is not a business for my family, but a business for everyone." Wu Haogu smiled and said, "And I don't want your 50,000 yuan, just turn this teahouse into a share capital... It saves me from looking for a place again.
Reconstruct this place and make a fidelity painting stairs.”
The Calligraphy and Painting Association (Singing and Selling House) can be built in the Jinmingchi and Qionglin Courtyard outside the city. Because it is a place where you sing and sell good things, you are not afraid of being far away. Moreover, it is surrounded by villas from wealthy families in Kaifeng Prefecture, so it is not very far away for these good families.
However, Feizhen Huazhai is a middle-level person in the collection market. These people live in Kaifeng Prefecture City, and they are all walking around Panlou Street for no reason. They can exchange things that are not true or false. This is elegant.
Asking them to go outside the city... not only is it a distant problem, but the atmosphere is not right. These guys who are worth less than 100,000 yuan will feel inferior when they go to Jinmingchi outside the city, Qionglinyuan area!
In addition, there is another advantage that Su Dalang has to invest in his teahouse, which is that he has acquired the only competitor in the calligraphy, painting, singing and selling business.
"How is it? Do you do it?"
Wu Haogu looked at Su Dalang and asked.
Su Dalang looked at Wu Haogu and Wu Chengzhi who said nothing, which was a little dilemma.
What Wu Haogu gave him is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! But Wu Chengzhi...
In the small private room, the atmosphere suddenly became silent, and the atmosphere seemed a little depressing.
"Dad," Wu Haogu suddenly spoke and said softly, "You are old and have worked hard for so many years, and it is time to enjoy your happiness. Now not only has the child achieved success, but the second brother will soon become an official.
So I plan to set up a village near Qionglin Garden in the west of the city so that you and my little girl can enjoy peace and happiness. The business matters can be handled by my child.”
This...is pretty good.
Wu Chengzhi's face slowed down and he smiled and said, "You don't want to spend money... Your business has just opened, and it's time to use money. How much more can my Huazhai be sold in my house? I have savings here, enough to buy a decent house. There is no need to go outside the city, just in the west wing of the city."
There are eight wings in Kaifeng’s mansion city, of which the right wing and the west wing of the city are both luxury residential areas. You can buy a house with 100,000 or 200,000 yuan. If you can be called a house in the mansion, you will have to spend 100,000 yuan!
"Okay," Wu Haogu said with a smile, "Dad, you can go and pick a house. If you don't have enough money, please find a child. It's no problem to have 100,000 or 80,000."
One hundred thousand or eighty thousand pieces are not a small amount for Wu Haogu today, and it is far from a problem. However, in order to comfort his father, the money can still be paid.
Seeing that Wu Chengzhi was satisfied, Su Dalang was no longer worried. He immediately took over the position of the shopkeeper of the calligraphy and painting store and agreed to take out his own teahouse to invest.
Wu Haogu smiled and said, "Now that the shopkeeper has a big shopkeeper, it is time to give the calligraphy and painting company an official name, so... How about Christie's?"
