Zhao Chen was disgusted by his wife, so he slipped away, and Zhao Chen didn't stay long, so he went out to the mansion.
When the two left, the three of them talked about the old for a long time, Wu Nuandong teased the little girl who couldn't speak for a while, and only then did he report the recent accounts of Hezhou.
The shops in the city are acceptable, with the support of the surrounding neighbors, and the sales volume has not dropped much, but some time ago, some merchants deliberately looted the goods, and returned the inexplicably spoiled goods.
This is the usual principle of samurai stores, if you are not satisfied, the food fruits and vegetables that have not been eaten can be returned within three days, and other products can be returned within seven days, except for medicines. The same store rule not only raised the samurai shop to a high level, but also made other peers resentful, they couldn't do it but felt that their business had lost a lot of customers, so they naturally scolded the samurai who could do it.
After the reconstruction of Hezhou City, many foreign merchants took advantage of the emptiness in the city and the cheap real estate to buy a lot of shops, of course, they also knew the prestige of the martial arts in Hezhou, so they basically avoided the possibility of competing with the martial arts.
Wu Nuandong pondered whether to go to the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce to explore first, after all, this time the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce was the only chamber of commerce that did not make a move, and all the troublemakers were foreign merchants.
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Nuandong decided to hold his troops first.
At this time, there was no move to take advantage of the fire to rob the Wu family, no matter what the reason for the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce was, it always gave the Wu family a little respite, Wu Nuandong had a good impression, on the contrary, the people behind the attack on the Wu family must have put pressure on the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce, if she came to the door to express her gratitude, it would be tantamount to putting the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce in an embarrassing situation, and it would make others mistakenly think that the Wu family took the opportunity to pull the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce to her boat.
Wu Nuandong disdained to do this kind of persecution of others, so he held his heart and waited for Gu Zhifu to send someone to the big pharmacy to investigate.
At the same time as the martial family was in turmoil, the battle for the crown prince of the royal family was also hot, so the three brothers of Wu Chunxi were trapped in the palace and could hardly pull away, but Luo Yuhan has always been the image of the spokesperson of the saint, and he has not been too involved with a certain prince, and he has an invincible team in his hand, and his value has naturally risen, and he has been attracted by various princes.
Fortunately, Luo Yuhan was clear-minded, and he was not confused by the enthusiasm of the princes and Corporal Lixian, and pushed a lot of beauties and gold and silver treasures sent to the door.
Luo Yuhan took advantage of this incident to get out of the imperial capital, but in fact, he returned to Hezhou openly to help Wu Nuandong flop.
Wu Nuandong is not suitable to go to the Chamber of Commerce, it does not mean that he is not suitable.
On the third day, the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce received a post from Gu Zhifu, in which General Luo would give a banquet to the chamber of commerce to thank them for their indispensable role in stabilizing the commercial market in Hezhou City.
Suddenly, the people in the Chamber of Commerce were worried, they only knew that the Gu prefect and the Wu family were old, but they didn't know what General Luo meant, if they wanted to say that it had nothing to do with the Wu family's affairs, no one believed it.
Recently, the martial artist came back to the master, and he did not hide it from others, and the news of the businessman has always been the most well-informed, so it is no coincidence that this matter is not a coincidence.
The Chamber of Commerce was brightly lit at this time, and many people were restless wandering in the conference hall, which made the president of the Hezhou Chamber of Commerce have more and more headaches.
"Sit down!" The chairman roared imposingly, but unfortunately the council room was too noisy for anyone to hear. In a fit of rage, the president dropped the cup, which made everyone stop and look at him suspiciously.
"How can there be such a careless, panicked, what are you afraid of!" The chairman reprimanded, seeing that everyone sat down steadily, and comforted slowly, "We are well-behaved businessmen, we have never done anything illegal and undisciplined, General Luo has always been famous, he is not greedy for money, but he loves beauty very much. You have concubines in your family, pick a few well-trained and clean ones, and send them together tomorrow. No matter which one General Luo likes, he won't embarrass us! ”
Where is the concubine still clean, everyone was in a dilemma for a while, and then a thin old man who was sitting next to the president suddenly said, "It is said that General Luo doesn't like those debauched women, so it's better to pick some beautiful and pure young ladies...... Zuo Lao, you have a lot of daughters, how about picking out two or three who can be lifted to the door? ”
The person who is known as Zuo Lao has a big belly, and he seems to be embarrassed to think about it for a long time, but he does not refuse or accept it. In fact, who doesn't know his flowery intestines, but he just wants to get a candy, his daughter has never been worthless, and his grandson is okay, basically married to a businessman with a head and face to make a main room, and the concubine and the side are mostly sent to the official family as a plaything, and the official road is dredged.
"It is said that we are a cheap businessman, and we should not criticize General Luo, but General Luo has too many confidants, and those girls in my family who are not angry may not be able to see him directly!" Although Zuo Lao said that he was modest, his expression was full of ambition, his wife looked average, but the concubines were all outstanding beauties, and the daughters he gave birth to were also moving and tight. Originally, Zuo Lao was just a merchant who walked the streets and alleys, and then slowly made his fortune, but he was nothing in the Chamber of Commerce, but his children were prosperous, gave birth to many daughters, and climbed a lot of powerful people, so he has today's pride.
The serious merchant families of eight hundred people all look down on him, but this person doesn't look a little wild, and he also helps the Chamber of Commerce through a lot of difficulties, so he will hold him a little bit, and then praise him constantly, and the praise of Zuo Lao is extremely satisfied, so he responded to the matter.
A young man sitting in the far corner pursed his lips disdainfully, waited out of the chamber of commerce, turned his head and wrote down what happened in the council hall word for word, tied it to the pigeon's lap, and spread the news.
The next morning, when the sky was slightly bright, the carrier pigeon landed on a pavilion, and the attendant guarding the door blew the pigeon whistle, and the carrier pigeon immediately spun around and flew down, and the attendant took off the note.
"Bring it in!" Someone in the room whispered in a low voice, followed by a soft cough from time to time.
The attendant frowned slightly, showed concern, and entered the room with a note, not daring to look up, and said respectfully: "Young master, it's news from Hezhou." ”
There was a faint smell of herbs in the air, and a thin figure could be seen faintly in the curtain of the bed, leaning crookedly against the head of the upholstered bed.
"Hmm!" With a thick nasal voice, the blue veil was lifted open by a white and transparent hand, revealing Liang Zhen's pale and bloodless face, he took the note, did not unfold it, and swept his eyes reservedly at the attendant who was standing down, and said coldly, "What else is the matter?"
