Chapter 172: Ji Pei's Business
Ji Pei has so many businesses, and he has long had his own set of rules for running. As long as the money comes quickly and the money comes in a lot, it doesn't matter what the law is, just let it go. Although Ji Pei's reputation and status are not as good as those of the crown prince, and his military rights are not as good as Ji Yuan's, he is one of the emperor's three sons. is also the king of the Qing Dynasty who has a fief and can live in the capital all the year round, and it is common for him to exert a little pressure, and even buy off the local parents and officials, and make money together.
The fact that the eight "shopkeepers" entered Beijing at the same time this time represents the importance he attaches to this matter. In the past, it was not without a situation where the business was temporarily transferred underground in order to take care of the face above. However, that is only one or two business actions occasionally, and not all business moves at all. So this time, the eight "shopkeepers" couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
Ji Pei sat at the top, looking at the eight "shopkeepers" standing below and looking at each other, and he didn't dare to be the first to ask if he wanted to ask. Knowing what they were doing, he just sneered and didn't say anything. He knew that although their subordinates showed off their might in front of everyone everywhere on weekdays, they could not even look at the local officials. But in front of him, they definitely didn't dare to make a mistake.
He didn't need to explain or even comfort them for their questions. They were nothing more than a few of his available dogs, and the hounds were only worthy to help him chase his prey and deliver it to his master. As for why they should pursue their prey, which path they should take in the process of chasing their prey, and what price they will pay, it is not something they need to consider.
The eight "shopkeepers" also knew that even if they raised questions in their hearts, even if the master did not punish them. Their questions will not be answered. Therefore, they hesitated for a long time and then died down, each holding the ledger. After Ji Pei checked them one by one, he was a little relieved.
Ji Pei had actually read these account books a long time ago, and now he looked at them in front of them, but it was also a rule. If there is a real problem with the accounts, of course, it is impossible to find out in this random search.
So, if you look through the motions like this. Ji Pei didn't say anything, which means that he had checked before and there were no mistakes or omissions. Then this year's account is considered to be the end of nothing, and a new account can be opened. If you are looking at it. Ji Pei directly threw the account book on the face of one of the "shopkeepers", and reprimanded and punished him, it means that there is a problem with the account.
Ji Pei has always been ruthless in dealing with people, and all he does is **** business. So for the subordinates who made mistakes. Regardless of whether he is an ordinary short-term worker or the highest "shopkeeper", as long as he makes a mistake, the lowest punishment is to lose an eye, and then cut off his hand and foot until he dies.
This Ji Pei also seems to be a psychopath. Waste eyes, he just scrapped one, leaving the other one to continue to work for him. So many times, in his business, he will see many blind eyes. People with broken hands or feet are still struggling to move goods. Even many people will die with one eye watching their hands and feet be cut off. and even tortured to death.
After dealing with the affairs of the eight "shopkeepers", several of them left, and only those who had been standing in the dark came out. Respectfully knelt in front of Ji Pei, waiting for his order.
The eight "shopkeepers" are in charge of various business matters, and this man in black is the "ninth shopkeeper" set up by Ji Pei. However, he is the shopkeeper, he doesn't care about business, he just deals with the killers who obstruct him according to Ji Pei's orders. It is also a law enforcement enforcer in the organization.
"You keep an eye on everyone below and keep an update to me. If it weren't for him to do something to me, you would be watching and dealing with the others. It has to be clean and it doesn't involve me. Do you understand?" Ji Pei commanded calmly.
"Yes, my subordinates understand!"
Now he still treats the prince as a brother to give him face. Others are not on his radar. As long as someone dares to harm his business, he will not be soft. He had always sought wealth only, and if either of the two brothers could bring him greater wealth, his heart would be biased towards one of them.
Of course, he also knew that his second brother was not easy to mess with, and he was a murderer. If you don't agree with each other, you will shout and kill them. Therefore, during this time, he has always pretended to be stupid and unwilling to choose a side. If his upright eldest brother could tolerate his means of making money, he would be more than happy to cooperate with him. It's just that his personality makes the prince both a trustworthy candidate and the most unselectable person.
The eight "shopkeepers" reported the accounts, and after the New Year peacefully, they immediately scattered back to preside over the business. Jiangnan is an important distance for them, not to mention the brothel gambling house, which has not had a day off at all. Human trafficking, counterfeit medicines, and illegal salt are also always on the lookout for opportunities, not only to turn their businesses underground, but also to continue to make money.
Bandits, black fire, and weapons, because it's not wartime, the latter two are still behind, and you can take a break. But the bandits have also been working tirelessly, specializing in stealing and robbing on the mountain road. Of course, the people in the vicinity were miserable, but the government controlled public opinion, and the matter could not be spread in the capital, so it could only be regarded as nothing. It's just that there are some signs, but the emperor has been fighting all the year round, and the prince has no skills, and it is the current Qing King who leads all this. Who cares?
Although the national teacher expected that because the protection of the three stars was almost gone, it would lead to a different and sinister situation in the country. But I didn't think that things would come to this. Even if he wanted to make a move, he was powerless at all. We can only wait for the time to save everything. Now, finally let him wait. I believe that in just three years, things will definitely take a turn for the better. The return of three stars corresponds to three years, and now the two stars have appeared, and the third star can only count on Luo Xiaogong to lead out. After all, she was destined to be Murong Shuo's wife. Of course, the most important people.
Now that the year has been calculated, I believe that in half a month, the holy decree of letting the prince Weifu go to Jiangnan will definitely be issued. The prince was unwell, and estimated the time for him to go back and forth, and it would take half a year to do so. If something is tripped up again, it may be more than half a year. Such a long time, for the crown prince, although it is nothing, but for Ji Pei, wasting time is a waste of opportunities to make money.
When the prince travels, he secretly observes the people's feelings, and solving the people's problems is the most basic. He turned most of his business underground, also in case the prince found out about his business. So the longer the prince stayed, the more influence it had on his business.
Of course, he didn't want the prince to stay long. He is addicted to money, and he hates anyone and anything that hinders him from making money. Especially, it is the Lin family who can make money brightly, and they earn more than him. (To be continued.) )
