"You don't have to look at me like that. I know that doing this in my family does sound a bit unkind, but for my family and the manager of my shop, it is the best choice and a wise way to protect myself, right? "
"Don't worry, I don't think I did anything wrong. Most people will choose this." Jin Jing nodded, "It's understandable, but for the other party, it's a bit..." He curled his lips, "Maybe it doesn't feel right. Feeling comfortable."
"It's nothing uncomfortable. Didn't they get real benefits?" Yan Rong spread his hands, "We were not the only ones who sold the shop to them. Moreover, the price was not particularly expensive. We almost We won’t make much money. Our goal is to cause less trouble and sell the shops quickly. They take advantage of this moment to gather all the shops around them into their hands. They can connect them into a long row and can dominate most of the street. For them, , it is convenient for them to do business, and it is also convenient for them to manage. This is a good thing that everyone gets what they need and kills two birds with one stone."
"It's quite right to think so."
"Really?" Yan Rong looked at Wei Zixin, then at Shen Haolin and the people on Shen's coffee table, and smiled, "Of course, we don't just sell the shop casually, so naturally we asked the buyer if he had the ability to fight against those people. You're a gangster, otherwise, it's just to get people excited, right? After all, a merchant's family like ours with nothing, even if it has a few servants who can fight, even if it has a few guards, it can't deal with those The gangsters are still more than capable. After all, those gangsters have no bottom line at all and can do anything. We can confront them and resist vigorously, but we are only afraid of a little, maybe the problem is not over yet When we did it, we got into trouble. This is really like accompanying my wife and losing the army. Our family is a businessman and will not engage in such a loss-making business. "
"That's right. If we were to change places, I would probably make the same choice as you." Jin Jing sighed softly, "Isn't it the old saying that a strong dragon can't overpower a local snake? If you don't have the ability, why bother? How about holding on? There are still a lot of people to support at home, so there is no need for this."
"Brother, the second half of the sentence is very reasonable, but the first half is not. Let me see, you should study more when you have time. Who is the strong dragon? Who is the local snake?" Jin Miaomiao said lightly. He raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly, "Isn't that the opposite? The situation in Brother A Rong's house is that a strong dragon has simply gone to the local snake's territory to show off his power. If he is not beaten down by the local snake, he will be considered a coward. "
"Miaomiao's words are accurate. It's true that I used the wrong words, but that's what it means. As long as everyone understands it!" Jin Jing touched her nose in embarrassment, "Then again, you investigated the buyer's information. What's the origin? Why on earth can you suppress those gangsters?"
"Under the absolute pressure of power, no matter whether it is a gangster or a ruffian, it will not work, Brother Xiaojing." Shen Cha sneered, "I was just recalling what Brother A Rong said. , I have some impression, I probably know what’s going on, and I also know the origin of the buyer who bought A Rong’s shop.”
"How do you... know?" Yan Rong was stunned and looked at Shen Cha with a confused expression, "I heard about this from my grandfather. Even though my grandfather saw it with his own eyes, his memory was not that deep. Yes, I only remembered it after listening to the elders telling old stories. But Xiaocha, you have never been to Wuzhou City, how can you know anything about it? "
"What don't our little tea babies know?" Jin Jing smiled narrowly, winked at Shen Cha, and said, "Do our little tea babies have channels to know a lot of stories? Don't talk about your grandfather's childhood. , even things that happened a long, long, long time ago, she knows." Seeing Yan Rong open his mouth to ask, he waved his hand, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"
Seeing that few people paid much attention to Shen Cha's source, Yan Rong exchanged glances with Wei Zixin, who was also confused. Their general was becoming more and more mysterious and unfathomable.
"Actually, it's not a great channel, and it's not a secret. When I was looking at the archives in the palace a few months ago, I accidentally turned over the greeting notes written by various princes and princes a long time ago. You all know that those greetings are The excerpt is to tell your majesty, don’t worry about yourself, you are well, the emperor should work hard for Daxia, don’t always think about running away, and don’t always think about leaving the throne to someone.”
Most of the people in the room had helpless expressions on their faces. This kind of emperor who did not want the throne and was thinking about running away every day was probably the only emperor in Daxia. Nothing so outrageous has happened in the past.
"However, there are also many interesting stories written in those greeting cards. From another aspect, they let the emperor know the outside world and how the people live, and also allowed the emperor to get a taste of the fireworks in the market." Shen Cha looked towards Shen Haolin patted his arm gently and said with a smile, "The story about brother A Rong's house was actually not what I saw, but what my brother and the commander saw together. The commander was smiling while looking at the sea. She was leaning forward and backward, saying that this gangster is really too blind. He has to cause such a big trouble." She looked at Shen Haolin and said cheerfully, "Brother is looking at me like this, does it mean he doesn't remember?"
Shen Haolin shook his head slightly, then nodded again.
"What does this mean?"
"It just comes to mind." Shen Haolin smiled and said, "Thinking about it now, this is our luck. If we had known at that time that the story of the young prince of Prince Li's palace in Wuzhou City was related to the empress dowager we wanted to investigate. , Green Lotus Sect, so we took a look at all the greeting notes from Prince Li’s Mansion, and we’re not sure what else can be predicted.”
"Prince Li's Mansion?" Yan Rong thought for a moment, "I've never heard of it. However, my grandfather only said that the buyer is a family with good connections in Beijing and a strong background. Which family it is, it's true. Never mentioned it.”
"Prince Li's Mansion now has a false name, and the family population is not very complicated. The current Prince Li has no brothers, and the previous Prince and Princess Li only have one child. Therefore, it is logical to inherit the throne. And he himself has only one child. A princess with a son and a daughter. The prince is seven years old this year. Not long ago, Shang Zhezi asked Your Majesty to find a master for the young prince. However, I heard..." Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin, "This young prince When the full moon captures the week, do you capture the abacus?"
"Yes!" Shen Haolin nodded and sighed softly, "Your Majesty said that Prince Li sent several greeting cards in succession that month. Just by reading the coupons, you can feel Prince Li's helplessness."
"What's so helpless about this? Is the business bad?"
"The business is too big, and there are too many managers and assistants, so it's not easy to manage. Now it looks like blooming flowers, but in fact, the oil is cooking in the fire, and it may not explode one day!" Jin Jing's face showed no expression. , said calmly, "Prince Li knows it in his heart. He should be thinking about spreading out the business in his hands, or that future generations will stop doing business. The business will gradually decrease, and the number of shops will also decrease. It's a pity..." He shrugged Shrugging, "The people in their family just want to do business, not be officials."
"Yes, especially since they are no longer in Wuzhou City, but in Yangzhou, there is more business." Shen Cha took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued, "And all of this should have started from Wuzhou City. It started with the acquisition of an entire street of shops.”
