The cold wind has not yet ravaged the south of the Yangtze River, and the weather in Hangzhou is still sunny and the air is warm, and the people enjoy the freshness of autumn to the fullest, which is still rare and comfortable. 『』

However, something happened in Hangzhou at first sight, and it can be said that it quickly spread all over the world. Not only caused a shock in the business community, but even those family gate valves were also alarmed. Because, at the entrance of the yamen and in important places in the city, the Hangzhou Prefecture Ya posted notices to sell a number of large-scale salt and tea farms, which are all heavy copper coins, and no one will get along with the money, right?

In the backyard of the Yamen of the Maritime Safety Bureau on Liangzhejiang Road, a large open space was opened, high-backed chairs were placed, and a platform was set up due north, on which several tables and chairs were placed.

Businessmen from all over the country gathered together, either standing aside, or sitting together, whispering about the Zixi Salt Farm and several large salt tea farms, and some public servants beckoned everyone back and forth to take their seats, and their attitudes changed a lot.

No matter how you say it, the Maritime Safety Bureau is also a management yamen, and the uncle-level storage zài, businessmen are naturally polite in order to pursue profits, and a public person will not be offended, and they have developed the temper of these people for a long time.

That is, Fei Su rectified with an iron fist, so that these uncles could understand something, and some people would be reluctant, but Master Fei was the disciple of Wang Xianggong, and he was called the fifteen masters of the royal family in the three-year palace test of Dazhong Jianyan, and he couldn't afford to offend

In addition to the local merchants, there are also some merchants in fancy costumes, all of whom are from places such as big food and body poison. The Great Song Dynasty couldn't help the sea, and even was very tolerant of overseas merchants, and the trade was very prosperous, and there were many merchants from overseas. At this time, there are tens of thousands of people in Kaifeng, and there are also many merchants settled in the trade ports of Hangzhou, Quanzhou, Guangzhou and other places, which are governed by the Bo Division of various cities, and many people have settled and have descendants, resulting in a lot of mixed-race children.

Several salt farms and tea factories in Hangzhou are rented, what a big business opportunity, even if some people are self-aware, but there are many smart people among them, thinking of Wang Xiu's political proposition, those who can lease Hangzhou can open other military states, and it goes without saying how big the business opportunities are, at least they can be familiar with Wang Xiu, and they are fools if they don't come.

Wu Xuanle leisurely soared his thighs, sitting in the first row, he was quite confident in this auction, thinking of his own operation, Wang Xiu saw his cordial attitude, and got the appreciation of his father, he was excited for a while, as if the golden road leading to the head of the family, paved to him.

"Isn't this Uncle Ji?"

Wu Xuanzheng was leisurely, looked up and saw that his face had changed slightly, and hurriedly got up to salute, and said with a smile: "Oh, I said who it is, it turned out to be Brother Daoshan." ”

A man in his thirties, wearing a blue tuanhua silk robe, was quite capable, and said with a smile: "I didn't think you would be interested in this tea and salt." ”

"Brother Daoshan is here just to see the excitement," Wu Xuan smiled and sneered.

The man laughed awkwardly twice, and said, "Who doesn't know that you entered the Liangzhejiang Road with four lucky boats, why don't you come here again to rob us of food again." ”

"Brother Daoshan, you are making fun of the little brother, how dare the little brother compete with the Han family in Anyang, this is not boring." Wu Xuan smiled, but scolded clearly in his heart.

It turned out that this person's surname was Han Xuanxuan, a member of the Han clan of the famous family of the Great Song Dynasty, and he was the same as Wu Xuan, who was born in a family of eunuchs, but he was not enthusiastic about the imperial examination and was obsessed with business.

Wu Xuan is also honest, in terms of family power, the Wu family really cannot be compared with the Han family, the Han family is a big family that has been inherited for a hundred years, and the protégés and former officials are all over the government and the opposition, and the Wu family is relatively much thinner.

It seems that the royal family has taken a fancy to the seventh sister of the head of the Han family, and if she enters the palace and becomes the queen, the Han family will go to the next level.

However, the Han family has a very fatal shortcoming, Zhang Qiyuan is the son-in-law of the Han family, although the Han girl was taken away and her whereabouts are unknown, Zhang Qiyuan did not marry another wife, and still maintained a relationship with the Han family.

Han Xuanxuan's eyelids jumped, and he said hypocritically: "Where is Uncle Ji, how can you and I divide each other." ”

Wu Xuan couldn't help sneering when he saw Han Xuanxuan's appearance, secretly saying that Han Xuanxuan was just a side branch of the Han family, and he was trying to salt tea in vain, who didn't know that Zhang Qiyuan, the son-in-law of the head of the Han family, was a little contradictory to Wang Xiu, and it was strange that your Han family should be able to eat meat.

When he was delusional, he heard a public man say in a loud voice: "Quiet, the prince has arrived." ”

Wu Xuan hurriedly turned around to look, and the businessmen present stood up to greet each other.

Wang Xiu, who was dressed in a purple robe and tied a purple gold fish bag around his waist, walked over with a lofty attitude, followed by Wang Ang, Liu Renfeng, Fei Su, and Hangzhou Bo Si on the stage, but saw him sitting on top of him, Wang Ang, Liu Renfeng and others sitting on both sides.

"You may be seated." All the businessmen in the venue sat down, Wang Xiu looked around the audience, and said with a faint smile: "I am asking for the opening of the salt and tea fields in Hangzhou, allowing private leasing and operation, fair bidding, payment of money and grain, and immediate delivery, and I hope that you will abide by the rules, and we will all make a profit." ”

The merchants of Waiyi suffered very much, and they had to master the official language of the Great Song Dynasty in order to understand the situation. However, Wang Xiu is not equipped with a general office, since he came to Middle-earth to make a living and earn a lot of gold and silver, then study the language and culture well, there is no free lunch in the world, I don't need to give you convenience, a qiē according to my rules, you think it is the era when a foreign Chinese language became a college entrance examination subject.

"As for how to compete, it depends on your bids, as well as the advance payment of two layers of capital, which will be jointly supervised by the salt tea business, the Hangzhou general judgment and the tax supervisor."

Wu Xuan pouted, Wang Xiu, an emotional person, didn't take care of him at all, so many people came to supervise, even if you want to take care of it, it will cause a lot of criticism, unless you don't have a clear reputation, if you really come out, then you have to make a commotion. However, he is bound to win the Zixi Salt Farm, as long as Wang Xiu gives him a look, he can make the officials in charge loosen their fingers, and they can only hope that this uncle will take care of the Wu family's face.

Zong Liang walked quickly to the front of the stage and said in a loud voice: "Please write down the money and grain with paper and pen according to the order of your seat, and put it into the boxes marked with the salt and tea fields in various places." ”

Some businessmen talked a lot, some showed distrustful expressions, but Wu Xuan was overjoyed, as long as the price code was not announced in public, there was still room for maneuver, it seemed that Wang Xiu still took care of the Wu family's face.

"Since it is a competition, it should be bid by the crowd and decided on the spot."

Zong Liang was stunned, his eyes locked on the direction of the sound, and said unhappily: "Who?"

"In Anyang, Xiaxiangzhou, Han Xuanxuan."

Wu Xuan looked at Han Xuanxuan in surprise, how did he know that this guy was so bold, and he openly questioned Wang Xiu, could it be that he came to make trouble Suddenly, he had the urge to kill this guy, in case Han Xuanxuan caused public indignation, I am afraid that Wang Xiu will change his mind
