Chapter 641 Social Beating
Qian Erniang raised her head, her eyes filled with searching intent.
In the business field... harmony makes money. If you want to do business in Datang, you must find a few friends.
But Jia Ping'an not only rejected Qiao Sheng's investment, but also directly issued an order to evict the customer.
The husband will be angry!
Qiao Sheng seemed very gentle, but Qian Erniang knew how ruthless this husband was. He didn't hesitate to annex other people's businesses, but whenever he encountered a hard problem, he would use both soft and hard things, and refused to accept softness, and then came the suppression from the government.
Businessmen have a low status in the Tang Dynasty, who dares to compete with such a rich businessman with a deep background?
So Qiao Sheng's business has become more and more prosperous, but behind the scenes, it is stealing.
Qiao Sheng didn't expect Jia Pingan to be so rude.
He has been competing with Jia Pingan since he called the door, just wanting to take the initiative.
But Jia Pingan didn't even talk to him at all... Get out!
Could it be that I am self-defeating?
Qiao Sheng's smile became colder, "I know that Marquis Wuyang found three old men to do it together, but the more friends you have...the more ways you have..."
It's easier to travel if you have more friends!
This is the second time he mentions this.
"Qiao still has quite a lot of contacts in Datang. For example, if he encounters trouble with purchasing goods, Qiao can easily solve it. If his opponent is rude, Qiao can make it difficult for him to move... No need to use anything, just make his business difficult. Continue, no one can fault it."
"You are threatening me!"
Jia Pingan felt that he had met Sabi.
No!
I met a mallet.
"You want to say that if I don't agree, you will make a stumbling block to my business, and I promise that even the three old men won't be able to find any faults..."
Qiao Zhen smiled, with a reserved stroke, "Qiao never does such things."
But I have this ability!
Tsk tsk!
You have to be slick when talking to this kind of people, otherwise you won’t be able to hear the voice-over, and you will be confused when you turn around and be blocked, thinking who is digging a hole for me!
"You can try."
Qiao Zhen was not a good person, and he wanted to invest money as soon as he opened his mouth. This is because he smelled the smell of making a lot of money from the three old men, so he came here impatiently.
but…
"Marquis of Wuyang..." Qiao Zhen smiled and said, "I think Marquis of Wuyang can inquire about Qiao's reputation. Qiao has clear grievances."
Whoever offends me will end badly.
"I think you made a mistake. In fact, since you came in, I don't like you as a person. It's too fake. Look at your smile, it seems to be a fake smile wrapped in a piece of human skin. In addition... I also I don't like your lady, since you don't understand me when I say see you off, then..."
Jia Pingan pointed at the door, waving his hand as if to repel flies, "Get out!"
You want to buy shares by force when you come to the door, you really take yourself seriously.
Qiao Sheng's smile became more and more warm, "Since the Marquis of Wuyang rejects people thousands of miles away, Qiao has nothing to say. Before leaving, Qiao reminded Marquis Wuyang again that he can go and find out who Qiao is, and leave. gone."
Qiao Sheng bowed his head and said goodbye with impeccable etiquette.
Out of Jia's house, the guards set up the stool, and he went up calmly, followed by Qian Erniang.
"Walk!"
The carriage left Daodefang, Qian Erniang looked up.
Qiao Sheng's eyes became more serious, and he waved his hand.
Snapped!
Qian Erniang covered her face, "I just had an argument with Jia Ping'an."
"I know."
Qiao Sheng wiped his hands with a towel, and said calmly: "This slap is just to tell you that your previous expression has disgraced the Qiao family."
Qian Erniang thought for a while, and she seemed surprised earlier.
"Jia Pingan doesn't know how powerful the Qiao family is, so... let him find out by himself."
…
In a village outside Chang'an City.
"I'm so thirsty!"
The sun was shining brightly, Li Yuanying just wanted to stick out his tongue.
Yuchi Xunyu was better, and his charcoal-like face was also more irritable.
"There is a village ahead."
The two were surrounded by accompanying guards and entered the village.
Chickens fly and dogs jump!
At the head of the village, a group of dogs gathered and barked.
"Who!"
It is difficult to go out these days, and only businessmen and officials can travel from village to village.
An old man came out of the earthen house at the head of the village. When he saw Li Yuanying and others, he was startled for a while, and then cursed: "Er Mao, Er Mao, come back!"
A native dog growled and backed away slowly.
"It's a nobleman! If you call again, I'll **** you!"
The old man slapped the dirt dog violently, but when it landed on the dirt dog's head, it became light and light, as if he was brushing off the dust for it.
Ermao was probably the leader of this group of dogs, so the group of dogs slowly retreated to the sides, but refused to let down their vigilance completely.
Er Mao raised his head and licked the old man's hand, wagging his tail, and his eyes were gentle.
"Your Excellency."
The old man came forward and saluted.
Li Yuanying suddenly remembered Master Jia's warning.
Don’t show off your Teng Wang’s score when you go out, behave yourself.
He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I have seen the old man, I am passing by here, I am thirsty and want to find a bowl of water to drink."
"It's easy to say, easy to say."
The old man warmly invited them into the house.
As soon as I entered, a five or six-year-old child was running in the yard, and the old man went over and slapped his buttocks, "Come in!"
The child turned around and glanced at Li Yuanying, with fear in his eyes, and hurried into the room.
Is this king a tiger?
Li Yuanying wondered, when he saw Heitan Yuchi Xunyu, he felt that this guy scared the child.
After drinking a meal of water, Li Yuanying only felt his stomach rattle, so he took a rest.
"Old man, how many fields in your village are still unallocated?"
They have been wandering around, and the situation is not optimistic.
The old man's eyes became more cunning, and then he sighed, but just shook his head.
What's the meaning?
Li Yuanying was puzzled.
A guard leaned over and lowered his head, and put his ear canal, "I want money."
Li Yuanying glanced at the old man.
Sure enough, they are all troublemakers!
He nodded, and the guard brought out a bunch of money.
"Give!"
The money was given a little stiffly, but the old man still took it, and then looked at Yuchi Xunyu.
Damn it!
Do you still want this?
Li Yuanying was tired of heart, nodded, and the guard gave another bunch of copper coins, and warned: "If you make an inch..."
"Save for my little grandson to marry a lady!"
The old man took the money, grinning, with half a mouthful of sparse big yellow teeth.
"The fields in our village have been distributed long ago. This year, there are two fields to be distributed, and they are all distributed to places more than five miles away from home."
Li Yuanying asked: "There are many fields over there? Are they all empty?"
"Where can the land be left empty? There are substitute seeds."
The old man praised: "It's good to divide the land! There are children and grandchildren... It's just that the fields over there can be divided for another ten or twenty years. If you divide it again... I'm afraid you can only go further , but there is a village over there!"
Li Yuanying was in a heavy heart, and felt that what the husband said was really insightful.
Yuchi Xunyu said in a low voice, "Ask again."
Li Yuanying nodded, pulling himself together, "Old man, is there enough land in the surrounding villages?"
The old man shook his head, with a look of worry on his brows, "I'm afraid it won't be enough if this goes on! After decades... the old man's great-grandson will probably go to the neighboring county to farm! But there is no spare land in the neighboring county! But what should I do?"
He wrenched his fingers, "Look, the old couple gave birth to three sons, and now the three sons together have given birth to seven grandchildren... After the seven grandchildren, the village will definitely have no way to divide the land. ...but His Majesty is wise now..."
The old man smiled flatteringly, "I will definitely find a way to allocate land for us."
Li Yuanying and Yuchi Xunyu looked at each other.
This is really what Mr. said.
But why no one pays attention to a big problem that even an old man in the country knows about?
Li Yuanying got up and prepared to leave.
The old man asked casually: "Why do you ask this?"
The guard felt that he was too greedy, so he said with a stern face: "This is King Teng. He came down by His Majesty's order to investigate the field, and see if the field you are waiting for is enough."
The old man froze for a moment, slapped his thigh, straightened his stooped waist instantly, and took out the money, "Please take this back."
How could Li Yuanying take back this little money, "You keep it."
"The old man likes money, but... but this kind of money can't be accepted. If I accept it... I'm afraid I can't sleep well at night, and I won't be ashamed to see my ancestors after death!"
The old man slapped himself violently, feeling extremely flustered, as if the money was burning his hands.
"Let's go."
Li Yuanying turned around.
"My lord!"
With a plop, the old man knelt down, "This old man shouldn't have taken money out of conscience!"
Li Yuanying didn't feel it, but Yuchi Xunyu stepped forward to lift the old man up, "Old man must not, my life will be shortened!"
The old man held the money in both hands, "I don't want to part with it! But... my ancestors are looking at me, if I take this money today, my ancestors will definitely be angry. If my grandson follows suit...Old man...I am ashamed to be a Tang Dynasty man!"
Several children are looking out of the house.
Li Yuanying nodded, and the guards took the money.
The old man turned around and smiled, his smile was extraordinarily bright.
"Ah Weng confiscated the money! Confiscated!"
…
Li Yuanying and Yuchi Xunyu came, and Li Jingye also came.
"Sir, I just heard something when I entered the city." Yuchi Xunyu looked into black charcoal.
"The Qiao family let it go, saying that the Jia family was too arrogant."
Li Yuanying thought this was really weird.
"Why?"
Li Jingye said dissatisfiedly: "If you want to do it, do it, why bother talking about it. Besides, if you have the ability... how can he make your brother lose his job?"
"It's impossible!" Li Yuanying felt that Li Jingye was a tough guy, "Not to mention, the three old men are here, and if Qiao Sheng dares to do something in the officialdom, he must be prepared to be severely beaten. But it's just a business, In business is business."
Since starting the smuggling business, the integrity of the scumbag has declined rapidly.
"Doing business..." Jia Pingan smiled, "I will let him know what social beating is called!"
I don't know why the society beat Li Yuanying so badly, but he still warned: "Qiao Sheng's methods are vicious and vicious, you have to be careful."
"Fun in business?"
Li Jingye felt that Li Yuanying was getting more and more immoral.
"Of course it's interesting." Li Yuanying said excitedly: "When you earn a lot of money, that kind of excitement... is more comfortable than being with women, addictive!"
"King Teng..."
Li Jingye hesitated to speak.
"Why, don't you believe me?"
Li Yuanying said disdainfully.
Li Jingye sighed: "Is there anything more comfortable in this world than dumping your **** with a woman? You think earning money is more comfortable than this, but I think...you can't find comfort in a woman...so Desperately earn money, cover up their incompetence."
"You!" Li Yuanying was startled. "My king sings every night!"
But no man will admit that he is incapable, and Li Yuanying is no exception.
"People who sing and sing every night will not say that making money is more comfortable!"
Li Jingye said obsessively: "It's so comfortable to shake your butt... To make money, isn't it for men to make money to have money and to shake their **** with women? Teng Wang, you are beyond your capabilities."
"Nonsense!"
Li Yuanying was obviously a little weak.
Li Jingye imitated Jia Pingan, an old Chinese doctor, "Yin deficiency or Yang deficiency?"
Li Yuanying just wanted to beat him badly, but before he clenched his fist, he felt that he couldn't beat him.
Li Jingye said firmly: "That's Yin and Yang deficiency, King Teng should stay away from women from now on."
Li Yuanying was out of breath, and shouted, "With your mouth, do you dare to say that to the British Duke?"
Li Jingye felt melancholy.
Damn it!
Li Yuanying bounced up suddenly, "You...you won't really say it, will you?"
Yu Chi Xunyu covered his face, "What is wrong with the British?"
"Nothing."
Li Jingye couldn't help moving his body.
Li Yuanying and Yu Chi Xunyu looked at him suspiciously, Jia Pingan mourned for Li Ji for a moment, and then said: "You don't need to worry about this matter, come here and get the food and wine."
Later, a small bowl of ginseng wine per person goes down.
Damn it!
Li Jingye blushed and had a thick neck, "Brother, my stomach is hot, and my hands and feet are hot."
"Drink less next time."
Jia Ping'an said seriously.
He is testing dosage.
Li Yuanying...
wipe!
"King Teng..."
Li Yuanying didn't react much after watching it.
"It's hot, it's very hot! This king is sweating profusely!"
I see you are a big man!
Jia Pingan shook his head, "It's empty!"
Li Jingye said proudly: "I just said that King Teng is both empty...Yin and Yang are both empty."
Li Yuanying naturally refused to admit it, then stood up and bowed solemnly.
The same is true for Yu Chi Xunyu.
Li Jingye burped, "What do you mean?"
"Sir, you have far-sighted eyes!" Li Yuanying said solemnly: "This time, the king and Xun Yu went to investigate outside Chang'an, and found that the fields in many places may not be enough in 20 or 30 years."
"This is something I expected a long time ago." Jia Pingan didn't understand why those old men turned a blind eye to this. The only explanation was that they wanted to euthanize.
"How should Xun Yu and I report this matter?"
Li Yuanying obviously also felt that this was an unsolvable problem.
"Tell me the truth."
Jia Pingan suddenly smiled, very vicious and contemptuous, "Those people ignore the commercial tax, tell me... what if the commercial tax can make Datang prosperous and strong?"
Li Yuanying and Yuchi Xunyu smiled wryly, "Sir, why are you joking?"
"I was serious!"
These sticks, I don’t know that the Song Dynasty has been grinding away the Kingdom of Jin by relying on business and trade, and then grinding the Mongols into unspeakable misery... If it wasn’t for civil and military guards against each other in the end, and party struggles, it might be possible to grind Mongolia away.
"No business, no wealth!"
Jia Pingan felt like a god, overlooking these people, "Believe me, when business explodes, the entire Tang Dynasty will cheer for it!"
There are more and more commercial taxes... Can the agricultural tax be reduced or exempted? (reduce)
Now that you have money, you can do many things. Do you want to go to war? The Minister of the Household Department said firmly: "The money and food are ready."
Are you happy?
It's so refreshing!
All the ministers are so excited!
After the three of them left, Du He came, "Mr., I'm afraid someone is dead in Qiao Sheng's hands."
"Not surprisingly!"
The business is so big, no one will die under his hands.
"Let's go!" Jia Pingan got up and moved his body, "Go and see the business of Qiao's house."
Du He rushed out, "Chen Dong, Xiaoyu..."
The guards came out.
"It's not necessary."
Jia Ping'an felt that Du He made too much fuss.
Arrived in Dongshi later.
"This is Qiao's family, and this is also..."
Qiao’s business is really good.
"Lang Jun..."
The dog-headed military strategist Du He was obviously timid.
"His family is too rich."
With money, you can suppress your opponent's business.
"They can lose money and fight our family!"
"Then let's fight."
Jia Pingan glanced at it, and then went home immediately.
Afterwards, all the famous prostitutes in Chang'an City received posts from Jia's family.
"My lord will invite you all to Qujiang Pond in two days' time."
The bustard of Wuxianglou is going crazy.
"Why did Jia Lang invite those bitches!"
But in turn, she had to call the newest prostitute and give her some advice. In order for her to be able to overwhelm the crowd, she invited back Master Jia who had been away from Wuxianglou for a long time, and even took out all the jewelry she had kept at the bottom of the box.
"Drop your skin!"
Word travels fast.
"Queen!"
A servant hurried in.
Wu Mei, who was reviewing the memorial, raised her head, her eyes narrowed slightly, the servant's heart trembled, and she felt a wave of pressure coming out of nowhere.
"What is it?"
"Queen, the Jia family has invited famous prostitutes from Chang'an, saying that they will meet in Qujiang Pond in two days."
Shaopeng was taken aback, "The whole Chang'an City?"
The waiter nodded, "At the beginning, some brothels were reserved and refused to go, but later on, the Jia family refused to invite them at all. When they repented, the Jia family just ignored them."
Aren't you going?
no problem.
I invited others to go. When there are more and more people, the herd mentality makes you feel uneasy, and you will abandon your reserve and want to be with the public.
But the point is not this!
Wu Mei's eyebrows gradually raised, "Is he so slutty?"
Going to be kicked!
Shaopeng is ready to summon Jia Pingan.
"Queen, Princess Xincheng is here."
Wu Mei suppressed her anger temporarily, "Please come."
When Xincheng came in, he felt that the atmosphere was not right.
"Did Xincheng go to His Majesty's side?"
Wu Mei also had to give a smile to Li Zhi's beloved sister.
Xincheng frowned, and said weakly: "The Marquis of Wuyang entrusted me, saying that the Qujiang Pond in two days' time will not be wandering invisibly. Please wait patiently, Queen."
Wu Mei gritted her teeth in her heart, but said with a smile: "So I'll see what he's going to do, if it's not right..."
Shaopeng clenched his fist!
Kick!
Wu Mei suddenly remembered something, "Why did he invite you to pass the message?"
Shouldn't it belong to Gao Yang?
Xincheng sighed, "Dali Temple found Gao Yang and said that someone accused her of beating her."
Well!
Wu Mei also couldn't help laughing, "Forget it, it's just a fight, who is the opponent?"
"That person is the wife of an official, and she spoke ill of Marquis Wuyang. Gao Yang was so angry that he whipped her."
"O official's wife!"
Wu Mei raised her head, "Shao Peng went to Dali Temple to settle this matter!"
The queen is mighty and domineering!
Xincheng went out and smiled slightly.
Still my means are high!
…
Good night!
