Chapter 2** The New Deal and New Situation of the Han Dynasty

The news of the Han army's entry into Yanjing spread faster than the pigeon book! After the Tanggu encirclement was broken, the gates of the north and south cities of Tanggu were opened, and people from all directions came and went, among which there were officials like Chen Zhenghui and Han Fang, as well as soldiers such as Li Shifu and other returning soldiers, but the most active was the businessman.

Most of the merchants of Lianghe and Yanjing who remained in their homeland were shattered by the war, but before the Jinhan war, a large number of far-sighted merchants had already fled to Tanggu or Shandong for refuge and preserved their vitality. At this time, the power of the Han court was prosperous, Yanjing and Lianghe gradually calmed down, and these merchants followed the Han army back to re-enter, and wanted to take advantage of the cheap land prices after the chaos to re-establish a foundation in Hebei and Yanjing.

Merchants from Lianghe and Yanjing flowed from Tanggu, while merchants from Northeast China, Shandong, Nanyang, and Goryeo flowed in from both land and sea. Yanjing City has not yet been laid at this time, but the merchants of the world are already optimistic about the potential of this area. In particular, the rumor of Dingdu has become an important reason for attracting countless merchants to rush into Tanggu.

"Did you hear that? The capital will be set in Yanjing! ”

"Humph! You haven't heard of it until now! ”

Merchant ships took advantage of the monsoon from south to north before the end of the port of Tanggu, the sudden increase in population made Tanggu all kinds of prices more expensive, some prescient rice merchants have already made a handful, and the far-sighted merchants aimed at the land of several states and counties around Tanggu, and began to recruit displaced people to reclaim the tun, in order to provide vegetables and other products for Tanggu and the capital in preparation for the future. As for the grains and rice in the northeast, they are flowing in through sea. Most of the land around Tanggu was originally located near the battlefield and had been barren for many years, but in just a few months after the end of the war, the land price rose due to the investment and operation of a large number of merchants.

At dusk on this day, the famous restaurant Changping Hall in Tanggu ushered in two guests, both of whom were from the famous commercial family in the East China Sea, one surnamed Chen, one of the leaders of the Chen family of Ouyang Shi's wife, Chen Guanghu, and the other surnamed Huang, the second leader of the Huang family in the East China Sea. The Chen and Huang families went hand in hand at the beginning of the rise of the Han Dynasty, but after more than ten years, the circumstances of the two families have been very different, the Huang family and the Han Department had earlier contact, and now the net worth is ten times that of the year, but in the past ten years, the families that have relied on the Han Department and multiplied ten times are not only dozens? In the eyes of many people, the development of the Huang family is really lagging behind, and at the moment it can only be regarded as a second-rate family in the East China Sea business district at most. Therefore, these two businessmen who were equal in Jinmen at the beginning, when they entered the door at this time, their momentum was also very different, Chen Guanghu had an arrogance on his face, and Huang Jing was accompanied by a smiling face, like a follower.

The shopkeeper of the Changping Pavilion saw the two of them and hurriedly greeted them: "Two of you, it's been a long time coming!" ”

Chen Guanghu asked in a low voice, "Have you arrived?" ”

The shopkeeper said, "It's here, it's here!" ”

He led the two upstairs to an accord, and there was a young man sitting in the door, who seemed to be in his thirties, with a bit of bookish air on his face, but there were some wrinkles in the corners of his eyes that people did not dare to underestimate, but it was Chen Chu, the son of Chen Xian, the deputy prime minister of the Han Dynasty.

As soon as Chen Guanghu and Huang Jing entered the door, the shopkeeper took the door out, Huang Jing was busy introducing the two, Chen Guanghu said deeply as soon as they met: "Chen Gongzi is really heroic, it is better to be famous than to meet, and it is better to meet than to be famous!" ”

Chen Chu just smiled and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

Huang Jing saw it next to him, and said in his heart: "This boy is such a big shelf!" Dare to do the same to the people of the Chen family! ”

At this time, the arrogance of the Nanyang Chen family in the business circle has reached the point of invincibility, and the Han elders such as Zhao Lumin and Liu Jie also retreat when they meet them, and in the eyes of many people, the Lin family is one or two points inferior to them. Although Chen Chu is Chen Xian's son, the backer behind Chen Guanghu is harder, although Chen Chu and Chen Xian are close and Chen Guanghu and Ouyang are sparse, but Chen Guanghu is here on behalf of the Chen family this time, seeing Chen Chu treating himself so lightly, he can't help but feel angry, and said in his heart: "Although your Lao Tzu is very important now, after all, he is only a minister, how can he be compared with the four generals?" ”

He has been used to being powerful in the past few years, if he hadn't asked Chen Chu for it, I am afraid that he would have a seizure on the spot. But after all, he is an old man in the shopping mall, thinking that Chen Fengshan must get that thing done, so he suppressed his anger and came up to smile and greet, and he is the origin of the surname Chen, and he is the origin of the southerners, but Chen Chu's attitude towards Chen Guanghu has always been cold, as if he is not interested in him at all.

After going around the boss for a circle, Chen Guanghu finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Chen Gongzi, this time my brother sent me north, not for anything else, just to discuss a big matter with Chen Gongzi!" ”

Chen Chu's face was full of surprise, and he said to Huang Jing: "Master Huang, why did you come today, isn't it to drink and listen to books?" ”

Chen Guanghu was stunned and thought, "What garlic are you putting for me!" ”

Huang Jing hurriedly said: "It's also good to drink and listen to books, but if Chen Dangjia has important things to talk to Chen Gongzi, he might as well ......"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Chu had already shaken his hand and got up and said: "That's sorry, I'm here today just to drink and listen to books, it's okay to be polite and elegant, but I don't want to bother working in this floating half a day." Leave. ”

Huang Jing was shocked and hurriedly persuaded him, Chen Guanghu was also anxious, and said in his heart: "I can't imagine this stinky boy is so arrogating!" He was not an impatient person, but in the past two years, only people have begged him, and he rarely comes to ask for people, and he is a little less tactful when he encounters something. We are only talking about Fengyue today, regardless of affairs! ”

Chen Chu smiled and said, "It would be good if this was the case." Nodding and sitting down, he pushed open the window, and at this time the downstairs was already full of people, Chen Chu smiled and said: "This grandson is called the sky, and the shelf is quite big!" ”

Chen Guanghu asked in a low voice, "Who is Gongsun called Tian?" ”

Before Huang Jing could answer, Chen Chu was already surprised: "Chen Dangjia doesn't know? Then come and listen? This grandson is called Tianzai Tanggu, which is a great name! Talking about current affairs, talking about the war situation, it is a first-class blockbuster! Even the Seventh General had heard of his book, but Chen Dangjia didn't know? ”

Chen Guanghu was very embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Chen is lonely and unheard, lonely and unheard." ”

A burst of applause broke out downstairs while speaking, and a camel took the stage with a smile under the support of a few gangsters, giving a speech and talking about the news, but this time it was about the war in Yanjing. In fact, he is a storyteller, how much can he get the latest war situation? But the magic is that he is good at laying out, and he is careful in the details, so that people feel as if they are in the scene, as if he has just returned from the front line, and everything is seen and heard.

Chen Chu listened to it with relish, and while drinking, he commented: "This grandson must have someone on the front line to help find out the news, otherwise he wouldn't be able to say such a detailed and real thing." ”

Huang Jing answered a few words on the side, and Chen Guanghu also laughed, but he was actually very angry in his heart, and said in his heart: "If it weren't for the big business of Jiandu, our Chen family would need to whisper to you, the yellow-haired boy?" ”

Chen Chu turned a blind eye to Chen Guanghu's reaction, as if he couldn't see it, and seemed to be completely immersed in the Yanjing war depicted by Gongsun Zhaotian.

At this moment, there are hundreds of people crowded inside and outside the Changping Pavilion, all of them can listen attentively, and they are about to enter **, suddenly the sound of horses' hooves outside the door, Gongsun called the sky to hear the sound of horses' hooves, stopped, and even the people who were playing musical instruments to help the fun did not dare to move, and the museum was silent when it landed, and I heard someone shouting loudly along the street: "Captured!" Captured! Yanjing City has been captured! Great victory! Great victory! ”

"Ahh

Suddenly there was an unprecedented burst of cheers in the hall, some young people immediately ran out and screamed, some even danced on the spot, and even Gongsun Zhaotian also shouted with tears: "Great victory, great victory!" ”

At this time, no one heard what he said, but Gongsun Zhaotian didn't care, and even the owner of the Changping Pavilion didn't care, and ordered to go down, and several big men shouted together by their throats: "In order to celebrate the victory, within three days, the wine and food in this hall will be half price!" After their voices came out, the audience and drinkers were even more cheering.

Chen Chu said to Chen and Huang: "Yanjing victory, maybe there is any celebration outside, I want to go down and see the excitement." Then he got up to say goodbye and thanked them for their invitation today. After Chen Chu walked out of the door, he heard a bang in the door, as if someone had punched the table, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but sneer: "The people of the Chen family are going back more and more!" With this character, I still want to monopolize the big deal of building the capital! ”
