Chapter 592: Salt Introduction
Actually, does Guo Wenying have a salt citation? Yes, but this is it. This is still the salt that Lu Yiyu confiscated when she said that day when she checked the salt farm, she took it and looked at it at the time, but she didn't return it, so she put it in her sleeve. As for 10,000 sheets, that's pure nonsense, a total of hundreds of salt citations have been copied, and it is impossible for the wind to blow so much!
She wanted to deceive this President Ma, but Ma Ruyun was obviously not fooled, as soon as she got up, he began to prevaricate, saying that there was no food in his hand, and that there was so much salt in his hand, and that the imperial court was too strict, as law-abiding people, they did not dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi easily, and they also squeezed Guo Wenying outside the words, which meant that she should not use official authority to bend the law for personal gain.
Guo Wenying was so angry in her heart, but her face was silent, she only smiled: "I just tested President Ma, President Ma really deserves to be the pillar of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce, I really admire it." ”
She couldn't make a plan, and then said: "Tomorrow, the Japanese official will invite the salt merchants of Hangzhou Mansion in Guiyunlou in Hangzhou, I wonder if President Ma can arrange a few tables of banquets?"
Guo Wenying is the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and he is the top official, Ma Ruyun naturally focuses on finding a restaurant, ordering a banquet, including the wine to be drunk at the banquet, he has all the packages. The most famous chrysanthemum drunk was chosen, and a jar was worth hundreds of taels, but it didn't cost Guo Wenying a penny.
The banquet was naturally prepared extraordinarily, and the officials of Hangzhou City, as well as the most powerful salt merchants in Hangzhou City, were all sent out by Ma Ruyun in the name of Guo Wenying.
Someone arranged it, Guo Wenying was happy and relaxed, waiting for tomorrow's banquet to watch.
Outside the Guiyun Building, as soon as she got off the sedan chair, she was greeted by people like the stars holding the moon, and the officials and salt merchants upstairs had been waiting for a long time, as if it was someone else who was treated, and she was just a guest.
Guo Wenying doesn't care so much, what she wants is this momentum, as long as it's not her who spends the money, it doesn't matter who treats her.
As soon as she stepped on the second floor, she saw Zheng Wenbin, the governor of Zhejiang, who was sitting in the chief, the new governor who was only in his thirties, was really eye-catching, no matter where he was, how many people were around, the first thing people saw was always him.
Beautiful men are loved by everyone, whether they are soaked or not, it is good to look at them twice. From the first day she arrived in Hangzhou, she paid special attention to this governor, especially after hearing that he was the son-in-law of the Zhang family. At this moment, he walked over with a smile and greeted him from afar, "Lord Zheng, I haven't seen you for many days, are you okay?"
Zheng Wenbin returned the salute with a smile, and his words were quite ridiculous, "Lord Guo is polite, we seem to have only met yesterday, right?"
Yesterday, Guo Wenying specially summoned him over, and he didn't say anything about it, but only pulled him to talk about his daily routine for a long time, and those who knew would say that he cared about government affairs, and those who didn't know thought that the female governor had taken a fancy to the little white-faced governor. In just one night, a lot of gossip came out.
Guo Wenying smiled, "I don't see adults for a day, like every other autumn." ”
This is quite misleading, if Feng Jingting hears it, he will definitely have a crooked nose, but who told him not to be here, so let her talk nonsense. She doesn't care what others think, but she is more interested in this Lord Zheng than others. The son-in-law of the Zhang family, tsk, this identity is really a crime.
A group of officials and salt merchants were seated, a total of more than 30 people, and three tables were set up.
The dishes came up one after another, all of which were extremely rare ingredients, pangolins, tiger meat, snake soup, and civet cats, all of which were wild and expensive to death, but they didn't know what it tasted like. Guo Wenying is in the north all the year round, and she doesn't like these strange things very much, just looking at some roast goose, cured meat, and a little appetite.
Just as he was about to pick up the chopsticks, Ma Ruyun came over and said in a low voice: "My lord, everyone is here, please give a lecture." ”
Guo Wenying waved his hand, "I don't have anything to say, tell them to eat and drink well." As he spoke, he was the first to eat.
Ma Ruyun's face was a little green, and she gathered so many people to entertain her, just to eat him?
Chen Wanxi, the prefect of Hangzhou, stood up and said in a loud voice: "It is very hard for Lord Guo to come to Hangzhou to inspect, and you should give Lord Guo a drink." ”
When Guo Wenying first came the day before yesterday, someone tried to ask her about her intentions, and she said that it was an inspection. But just her words, I don't know how many people couldn't sleep that night. At this time, I heard Chen Wanxi bring it up again, but he didn't dare not disagree. Everyone present stood up and raised their glasses in unison, "Respect Lord Fu." ”
Guo Wenying also stood up and said with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare, you adults have also worked hard." ”
These people can't figure out her intentions, no one dares to move forward, in the past two days in order to avoid her, it is really hard to do everything, especially those who have ghosts in their hearts, and the feces on their buttocks have not been wiped clean, they all avoid her like a plague.
Guo Wenying also knows what these people have in their hearts, she is only here for salt, and she can turn a blind eye to anything else.
The people pushed the cups and changed the glasses and drank very lively, harmonious and harmonious, and they couldn't see any discord between each other at all.
Guo Wenying also admired the ability of these people to change their faces, hated her to death in her heart, and made a very respectful appearance on her face, worshipping her as her own father. She didn't really like this kind of occasion, but she had to make a false deal with them in order to make the next plan.
A wine and food is exhausted, during which all kinds of singing and dancing performances, blowing, playing and singing, the whole is very grand.
Guo Wenying didn't dare to drink, so she secretly asked someone to replace it with boiled water, but she poured a lot of water in one night, and her stomach was round when she drank. Simply this night, his body was quite competitive, and he forced himself to cope with these people.
Last night's banquet was just a warm-up for Guo Wenying, and it was her first step into the Hangzhou Salt Market, and then she began to find some salt merchants to come over from time to time to chat, talk about the world, talk about Fengyue, and more importantly, talk about business.
She came into contact with these salt merchants for a few days, and found that they were not as copper-smelling as rumored to be. These people are very good at playing and enjoying life, business is business, and eating, drinking and having fun is also very important to them. To be a human being is not only to be able to make money, but also to be able to spend money, which is also a part of life.
She and they boated on the West Lake, tasted all kinds of delicacies, and ran in the sky and on the ground, as long as they could eat it in their mouths. Hangzhou has been a place of beautiful women since ancient times, boating on the West Lake, drinking two sips of wine, blowing the river breeze, and then letting the beauty play a song, it is really a special enjoyment.
With them, Guo Wenying really felt that people can live so chic and wanton, they enjoy themselves and squander wantonly, she participated in it, and after enjoying it several times, she couldn't help but start sighing, it really feels good to be rich, and it is no wonder that many people take risks for the sake of red and white things.
It's a pity that I didn't give birth to a boy in this life, and my body is inconvenient, so I can only watch others live happily, and I can't help but lose a lot of fun.
