No further instructions were needed from Zhu Xi. The guards from the Prince's Palace and Prince Qin's Palace were guarding the surrounding area at the same time. No one was allowed to come out even from the buildings inside.
The guards of the two mansions all knew what Xiaqiu Village was like, and they took advantage of it.
"Protect him for us." Zhu Ping said a few words and came to the head of the village.
"Your Highness, come this way, don't let anyone else hear you." The head of the house pulled Zhu Ming to the side.
"Chief, don't worry, the guards of the two mansions are trustworthy." Zhu Ping had a serious expression on his face.
“Immediately send people to take care of the officials, government servants and family members of Jiangning County and Shangyuan County, and no one is allowed to approach.
Be quick, before anyone else reacts, or they may kill themselves or be killed.
Make arrangements first, then talk about other things, hurry up! If it's too late, we won't be able to rob them. "
After finishing speaking, the chief nodded vigorously, indicating that the matter was serious.
"Okay!" Zhu Xi didn't waste any words, pulled his guard leader over, bit his ear and said something.
The guard leader left with a group of people and continued to look for help.
"Is it okay?" Zhu Xi was also very nervous, feeling that something big had happened.
"Send people to keep an eye on where people are riding out. With the Qinhuai River, there are only a few roads out.
The guards from the Prince's Palace and Prince Qin's Palace came out tonight, which would inevitably arouse the vigilance of others.
In fact, this kind of thing has happened before, and in our business..."
The head of the village continued to chat with Zhu Xi, talking about some situations and follow-up arrangements.
Zhu Xi listened one by one, and when the chief finished speaking, he asked his own people to give them quiet instructions.
Most of the people here don't know what's going on. They continue to eat and drink carefully. If the sky falls, it won't be their turn to top it.
"Hanhan, you are really my brother! You dared to accompany the mayor outside, but you scared me to death!"
Zhu Fang arranged everything, came to Hanhan's side, sat down on the cushion, picked up the wine and talked.
"Well! Brother, I'm big, don't be afraid! I can fight!" Zhu Wentian said in cooperation, "I am your brother."
"Okay! I know you can hit me, and I've seen your two iron sticks. Most people really can't do anything to you. You swinging the stick is no different from swinging your arm with bare hands.
What if someone else uses a crossbow? You can react quickly and fire arrows, so don’t you want to grow inside?
In the future, you can bring more people with you. I, the Prince of Qin, will give you twenty people. I heard that your brother, the chief supervisor, wants another twenty.
There are sixty of them in total, and they are all willing to serve as temporary guards for you. You give me a lot!
If I serve as your guard for ten days, I will get something equivalent to two months' salary.
If someone else offered you such a benefit, you would have to question the purpose. oh! It would be impossible for anyone else to have the guards of the Prince's Palace to help protect him. "
Zhu Feng chatted with Hanhan while drinking, regardless of whether Hanhan could understand or not.
Zhu Wentian listened patiently at this time. As a loyal listener, he occasionally used a few simple words to point out Zhu Chong.
Other people are restricted from moving in the area. Because King Qin is here, you are not allowed to get close. Is there a problem?
The six of Lian Shisheng ate very slowly. They didn't want to leave after eating, so they took a small bite, chewed for a long time, and drank a small sip of wine.
In the past, I only heard people talk about how Xiaqiu Village and Prince's Mansion were like, like, like, and like that.
I saw with my own eyes today that a large group of guards from the Prince's Palace and Prince Qin's Palace rushed in and sealed off the entire place.
The key point is that King Qin was drinking there with the idiot village guard Hanhan from Xiaqiu Village, and from the looks of it, they were having a very happy chat.
These people will not be exposed to how much Xiaqiu Village paid for the Ming Dynasty, including to the imperial court, two droughts, and the large amount of money earned by the palace.
They only saw the favor Xiaqiu Village received, and thought it would be great if they were also favored one day.
"Li Chief." Lian Shisheng glanced at His Highness King Qin who was chatting quietly with Hanhan over there, and also whispered to the Li Chief: "Do you think what I said before is okay?"
"Do you want to make your own decisions and do things instead of just following orders and doing things in someone else's place?" The head of the village needs to ask clearly first.
"That's not it. Who are others? As long as we are in Ming Dynasty, we will never be able to do things by ourselves.
When we do business, we have to pay taxes and listen to others. When we sell food, if the customers say something is wrong, we have to correct it and listen to others.
Even now, if you ask us to do something, do we dare to say no?
We just don’t want to go to an almshouse. We always feel that we can do better on our own and don’t need help from others. "
Lian Shisheng said clearly that there is no difference between himself and others, it depends on the scope.
"Yes! Xiaqiu Village cannot be free. If you want to get something, you must pay the same price, or even more.
If you have small children over there, go to the library, where they will take good care of them.
As for the people you bring with you, you are actually an opportunist. When you see something that makes money, you go and make money immediately.
You don't want stability, you just want to get more money from one opportunity after another.
At the same time, it also satisfies your own adventurous spirit, or the feeling of a gambler, which is very addictive.
Can you understand these words I say? If you don't know, you can ask alone and I will answer it for you. "
The chief used some of the knowledge he learned from Hanhan. He found that Lian Shisheng's behavior and thoughts were consistent with a certain situation that Hanhan said.
"Yes, even if the words are a little different from what I learned before, I can still understand them. Yes, that's how I am. Wrong, is it wrong?"
Even Shisheng had goosebumps, feeling like he had been seen through everything. Yes, that was what he thought.
"Is there any right or wrong? Many businessmen are like this in convenience stores. They look for short-term opportunities and act immediately after seizing them.
Your capital, ugh! The capital is small and you can't do the same thing, but you can always do it around outsourcing.
You said before that you would sell stewed food first and go to the riverside, because you are familiar with water properties, and you can also catch some shrimps to sell.
In autumn, you will catch a large number of crabs and sell them to Xiaqiu Village.
You want to seize one opportunity after another, and this opportunity is given by Xiaqiu Village. Do you think Xiaqiu Village doesn’t know?
This is the outsourcing cooperation model provided by Xiaqiu Village, including tea leaves in spring, herbs in summer, fruits in autumn, and silkworm chrysalis in winter.
From now on, Xiaqiu Village must frequently issue announcements for collecting items from the outside. If you are willing, you can grab them again and again.
But what I want to tell you is that if you do this, you are actually seeking stability. You will find that everything you do is step by step. "
Li Changyi kept talking, and finally told Lian Shisheng that what you think of as freedom has actually never been free.
You initially think you have discovered an opportunity in Xiaqiu Village, and then you go and grab it, and you feel happy after you grab it.
But in fact, it is very easy to catch people in Xiaqiu Village, and they come according to the season.
Everyone else is just like you, there is no difference between them, you are not more outstanding than others.
Lian Shisheng: "..."
For a moment, he was confused. Could it be that the flexible opportunities he thought were not flexible at all, but opportunities given to you by others?
