Through some connections, Wu came to the gambling house and saw Guo Chong gambling in his regular clothes. At this time, his eyes were red. It was obvious that he had been gambling for a long time and lost a lot of money. Otherwise, how would it be called losing money? Eyes.
Seeing this situation, Wu knew that there was no chance today. After all, if a person loses like this, he will eat and drink heavily when he goes home, and then sleep soundly. Wu has seen a lot of gamblers here over the years. This kind of person is almost hopeless.
After discussing with Wang Shushu, after a few days, we finally found an opportunity. Wang Shushu met with the young master just when he was handing over the grain and grass.
Young Master Ji happened to be interested in making friends with him. Wang Shushu was in Fu Yan, and now he was a hot-handed person. Almost all officials knew that he had grain and grass in his hands. Although there were many speculations, the source of the grain and grass could never be determined.
Fortunately, there were many disputes in the court at this time, and it was very chaotic. No one planned to touch this fuse. If someone was really accidentally killed and the food and grass were gone, it would become the target of public criticism, even the scholar-bureaucrats would not Might survive.
One time, Wang Shumao happened to have an appointment with Guo Chong alone. Between the cups and the cups, Guo Chong poured out the bitter water and felt that it was difficult to make money.
Wang Shumao deliberately showed a surprised expression and said, how could it be possible that there was no money around Gongzirui.
Perhaps stimulated by alcohol, Guo Chong said that he likes to gamble, and no amount of money is enough. If others didn't give him face, he might not even be able to borrow money.
It's just that money has been tight recently, and it's time to pay back the profits. He has been feeling pain and happiness these days.
As Gongzi Rei's status rose, he got some obvious benefits and more money, but it couldn't come fast enough. What he wanted was to get rich suddenly.
Wang Shumao really couldn't understand this kind of mentality. After all, he rarely gambled and usually just played cards with Wu and others to kill time.
Because of work needs, Wang Shumao deliberately sent others away, blushing, and boasting proudly that he had first-hand information and so on.
After drinking this time, Guo Chong, who returned to the Young Master's residence, thought more and more that it was possible. This guy Wang Shushu must have some powerful information. With his current status, it was impossible for him to lie to him, and there was no benefit at all.
Sure enough, after a short while, Guo Chong took the initiative to entertain Wang Shushu. During the period, the two exchanged cups. Guo Chong was good at everything, but he was impatient and wanted to reveal all the news about Wang Shushu.
But who is Wang Shusui? I know what he is paying attention to. He feels that the heat is not yet there, so he fishes for a while longer.
Whenever Wang Shumao meets Guo Chong, he will reveal a little bit of information, so that Guo Chong is now itching in his heart.
"Now, we are already so familiar. Let me tell you directly. The price of copper and iron may surge in the near future. Why don't you buy some now?"
"Oh? Why is that?"
"Why? Why does it have anything to do with you? If you don't want to make money, just pretend that I have never done anything."
"Hahaha, how could it be possible? If I can make money this time, Wang Shumao, you will be my brother from now on."
To be able to do this to Guo Chong proves how important Wang Shusui is in his heart. No matter how treacherous this person is, he is still an official after all. Who is Wang Shushu? Just a businessman.
In other words, there is plenty to eat in Shangguo, but in another country, merchants can be beaten. After all, the status of merchants is still very low.
In the eyes of many people, merchants who do not engage in production but can possess huge wealth are an act of robbers and robbers. From the perspective of farming civilization, they are an anomaly.
After Guo Chong returned to his mansion, he kept walking around. Suddenly, his eyes flashed and he thought of something.
Recently, Gongzi not only competed with Gongziguan, but also attracted many scholar-bureaucrats to his side. However, Gongziguan was the eldest brother after all, he was a few years older than him, and his foundation was deeper.
The young master felt a little uncomfortable, so he went to some fireworks places. It had to be said that the fireworks places in this era were not as diverse as those in later generations.
Why go to the land of fireworks? Of course to have fun.
The brothel is also a place that Wang Shumai likes to go to. There are also five who usually follow him. Sometimes, several people will bump into each other and meet each other.
He wanted to make friends, and Guo Chong happened to be in the limelight a few times, which made Gongzirui rely on him even more.
Wang Shushu and Wu went to the brothel for completely different reasons than the young master refused to go.
Wang Shushou and Wu always thought that brothels were just for selling meat, but after these years of work, they already understood why brothels existed.
Ordinary people would not provoke brothels at all. You must know that almost all brothels are burly men. It can be said that the combat effectiveness of brothels is stronger than that of the current police station.
Wang Shushu was also surprised at the time, why a mere brothel had such a strong protective power. Judging from these sturdy men, they were no weaker than some of the elite Polu troops.
To unravel this mystery, we must understand the particularities of this industry.
The earliest brothels were used to receive guests, and everything was done in accordance with the needs of commercial development to increase the occupancy rate of guests.
But as time goes by, the brothel industry is not only a service, but also a very sticky industry. If used properly, it can not only attract a large number of customers, but also bring huge profits. But the question is, what can so many customers do?
Since the emergence of the flesh business, brothels have become a place for information exchange. Big businessmen will learn about the situation in other countries through brothels, and then quickly transfer resources and earn a lot of wealth.
In addition, some princely states also used this institution to conduct espionage activities to achieve political goals.
Thus, with a large number of fans, the brothel transformed from a commercial organization into an intelligence agency, both economic and political.
This brothel was opened by some scholar-bureaucrat families. When it was opened, I also contributed a large part of the money.
This part of the money accounts for almost 80% of the total funds, but the shares obtained are only 20%. There is no way, who can call someone powerful?
Fortunately, with Wang Shushu's fierce struggle, at least the management rights here were obtained. As the days passed, the profits were immediately received and distributed to those people.
Those scholar-bureaucrat families have never had a problem with Wang Shusui again. Everything else is false, only money is real. With sweetness in their mouths, who will manage these dirty things.
Something unexpected happened. Originally, Jin Wang Shumao planned to come here to make a call to Yuntong County. Not only did there be a phone here, but there was also a secret room. The most important thing was that there were no less than ten people in the Hunting Division, which could be called Get a large-scale information processing center.
Working here is the ultimate dream of members of the Fuyan Hunting Division. Why? It’s not like women can play casually without paying any money, it’s directly charged to the account.
As for the members of the hunting division who are not in the brothel, they have to spend money, because many intelligence officers do not know each other even if they meet.
A group of people were having fun inside. Guo Chong hurried outside to find Wang Shumi and asked.
"Ran?"
Wang Shushu nodded and said with a smile, "I received a batch of women from Liao State a few days ago, and one of them is pretty good."
Guo Chong's eyes lit up, "I've always heard that women from Liao State are as tender as water. It seems like your path is quite wild."
Wang Shushou laughed, "How can we merchants make money if we don't follow a wild path? Mr. Guo is still great. Although his position is not high now, after this incident, I think he will be able to reach a higher level."
Guo Chong did not hide anything. The three of them came to a room and saw a plump, slim-waisted and charming-looking woman sitting in the room.
If Yang Qian saw this woman here, he might immediately recognize her. Isn't this just a vixen template?
Yang Qian has never been interested in this kind of women because they are too boring. What he likes is the aloof, Jia Biyu type. If he conquers this kind of woman, he will be more successful and happy.
Guo Chong watched the woman keep rubbing her hands.
The two looked at each other, and Guo Chong said directly, "This is the first time we have met. You are just a prostitute now. If you can seize this opportunity, you can become a successful person in the future. Are you interested in collaborating?"
Guo Chong directly lowered his status. The prostitute was stunned and said in surprise, "You are an official, you want to cooperate with me?"
"Yes, are you interested?"
The prostitute hesitated. She was just an ordinary person. She was sold because her family couldn't survive. What always gave her the most sense of accomplishment in her hometown was having a good face.
My father and mother also sold it because their good looks were up for grabs. Originally, I should have been able to enter the home of a scholar-bureaucrat.
It doesn't matter even if your family is a tenant farmer. Your status is not particularly great, and you won't suffer or be bullied very much.
Who knows, Adi committed a crime and needed a lot of money to take care of it. In desperation, he had no choice but to sell her to Ren Yazi.
After Ren Yazi saw her, he immediately offered a high price. This money would not only help Adi settle his affairs, but also leave a lot of money for the family.
"I'm interested, is there any danger?" The woman was a little embarrassed. She was worried about whether she would be in danger. After all, she was unfamiliar with the place here.
Guo Chong smiled and said, "There will be no danger. As long as you can seize this opportunity, we can cooperate slowly, how about it?"
"Is it difficult?"
"It's not difficult!"
"Then, okay~~~!"
The woman finally agreed, because Wang Shumai promised that she would be allowed to accept guests no matter whether things here were successful or not.
Win or lose, women will naturally accept it happily.
Guo Chong returned to the private room and started laughing and joking. After a while, more than a dozen women ran in and started dancing to cheer up the elders.
The moment the slightly tipsy young master refused to see the woman, he felt as if his heart had been kicked by a donkey, and he couldn't move his eyes away.
