039 Xie Jiajian Tower
Without waiting for Huang Qilang to talk about Wang Shiqiang's trip to Dazaifu, she took the list of goods in Mr. Li's hand, hurriedly swept it, nodded and looked at Mr. Li, and said:
"It's late, and it's time to set up dinner, so I'm bothering Mr. Li in the warehouse today."
Of course, Li Dingwen wished that she would stay, and he also wanted to know more about her next plan, so he hurriedly responded, took the ransom list she nodded, and turned around to order someone to prepare food.
She looked at Huang Qilang again, and said politely:
"Brother Huang Qi hasn't eaten since he got off the boat, he has worked hard for all these hours, so he will have a light meal here with me."
Of course, Huang Qilang responded, and wisely didn't mention Zuo Ping, who was still waiting outside to see.
He Huang Qilang was entrusted to talk about the business of the two families, and a personal servant like Zuo Ping came to see, of course, to talk about his personal relationship for his son and his old friend, and he didn't want to get involved.
It was supposed to be dinner time, and Ji's mother had already prepared the meal in the back, so Mr. Li also saved his worries and stayed together, looking at the four ** silk pads put down on the wide board in front of the corridor, and set up four red lacquered hexagonal snack tables.
In addition to the three staple dishes of white rice, Hu cake and green essence porridge, there are also four bowls of hot and fragrant stir-fried seafood of various colors, and a bowl of bone soup with clear oil.
Xiao Rui'er, who had been hungry for a meal, endured her saliva, watched the eldest lady take the bowl and spoon, and began to use the soup, and the host and guest Huang Qilang and Mr. Li, who was sitting with her, also began to eat, she hurriedly stretched out her chopsticks and picked up the Hu Biscuit on her table, and forced the urge to eat it all in two bites, stuffed it into her mouth and took a small bite.
The fragrance of the freshly steamed rice flour overflowed her mouth, which not only made her stomach comfortable, but also made her sigh slightly:
The grange in the mountains has opened up, and the grain has been harvested, so that she can eat bread every day, and she will not be scolded until she dies.
Huang Qilang glanced at her, knowing that when Ji Qingchen was talking about business, he also let this little girl listen to it, so he didn't care, and said tentatively:
"Big Girl ......"
"Brother Huang Qi, why did Wang Gangshou suddenly change his temper and let you come?"
She put down the soup bowl and smiled.
He was overjoyed when he heard that she was straightforward and unambiguous, and he only felt that she was really wise and calm, and knew that doing business was to put harmony first.
Even if she lost face because of her repentance, and now she is not asked to marry her, as long as she continues to do business, she can always make up for the loss tenfold and hundredfold, he hurriedly said:
"The chaos in Ping'an Capital is big, he knows that with your temperament, he will definitely know the news long ago and prepare the food in Tangfang in advance."
He pointed to the extremely rich food on the table with his chopsticks.
"You are doing nothing now, of course you already have your own food source, and you don't need the 10,000 catties of food he has prepared for you on Tamna Island."
Without food to threaten, of course Wang Shiqiang will back down, Huang Qilang admired his ability to see the wind and make the cabin, and he didn't die and used Ji Laosan to threaten Ji Qingchen, presumably he also knew that Lou Yun was not so easy to deal with, and he was even more worried about coercion, but pushed her to Lou Yun's side, he laughed again, and said:
"Big sister, although I carried him behind my back and brought grain seeds for you in the Great Song Dynasty, he only opened one eye and closed one eye, as if he didn't know, but he never expected that you would really open up a grain field in Yazhu Mountain-"
"He really saw the opportunity quickly."
Of course, she knew Wang Shiqiang's temperament better, and she also smiled slightly, and did not mention the matter of the grain field, "His mother-in-law's youngest son seems to be by no means his opponent." ”
"Big sister, you just want to lose face when Wang Shiliang enters the workshop, can you really join forces with that kid? He couldn't even tell which direction the monsoon was blowing in July, and what else did he mention as the leader? ”
Huang Qilang grinned absently, he didn't take Wang Shiliang in his eyes at all, and he didn't mention that when he entered the workshop just now, he saw that the dock of the Wang family's warehouse was surrounded by Ji Hong and the fangding, but frowned and said:
"Although Tsukushi on Kyushu Island has always been a place where rebellious sinners are exiled in Heian Capital, it is the first time I have recently heard that the Fuso people from the regent family were taken here to be beheaded and their children were exiled, and it seems that it is really chaotic."
After thinking about it again, he asked tentatively, "San Lang, do you want to go out and set up your own door?" He doesn't want to marry Xu Qi Niangzi? ”
He has always known that her two younger brothers, even if they don't have an older sister like her as an example, they have always been very strong, and Ji Qingchen and these two younger brothers get along strangely, whether they are close or not, not far away, saying that she is holding the eldest sister like a mother, as long as it does not hinder Tangfang's business, she is also willful to them;
said that she was good as long as she made money, but Erlang secretly did not connive at people like Ji Hong running rampant in the fang, so as to crowd the people of Nanfang, San Lang felt that God was first, he was second, Sister A was a woman, he was too lazy to worry about her, and the rest of the people, including Erlang, had to lie on their stomachs in front of him to be pleasing to the eye.
She will also be angry, beat what should be beaten, punished what should be punished, and then scolded Ji Chenlong and Ji Chenhu in front of the whole party, telling them to stop in moderation.
On the contrary, it is the seventh mother of the Xu family, because she is the only girl raised in the Ji family, Ji Qingchen is still close to her.
What's more, although Xu Qi has moved home to live with her old father and brothers now, her six brothers are all good hands in the workshop, and the leader of the workshop has always been San Lang's right-hand man, and the two little guys in Mrs. Wang's family who have not yet reached adulthood are not the same thing.
"Xu Shuqing is what he wants to marry, and I don't want to care what happens to them in the future, but-"
She sighed and paused before speaking,
"Now that Ping Qingsheng has died of illness, he can't make trouble for me outside."
"Taira Kiyomori died of illness?"
Mr. Li, who had been listening quietly, suddenly changed color, and the smile on his lips swept away, and Huang Qilang jumped up directly from the small corridor where he was kneeling, and shouted:
"Is this news correct? Lord Ander was only three years old, and after the death of Taira Kiyomori, how could he sit still! ”
"Nature is true."
"Big sister, why aren't you in such a hurry, if there is a fight in the Fusang mainland, in case Tangfang is involved......"
Huang Qilang immediately understood where her anger towards Ji Chenhu came from, and when he saw that she was just smiling, he knew that this was her Tang Fang's own business after all, and he just had to think about how to repay Wang Shiqiang.
-- Just the news that Ping Qingsheng is dead is not in vain that Wang Shiqiang immediately retreated.
He sat down in contemplation, and Mr. Li also lowered his head and continued to eat, thinking about this war, whether it was Tang Fang or Song Shang, business was not very good......
Xiao Ruiniang looked at the absent-minded appearance of the three elders, quickly swept away most of the food on the dining table, got up and entered the house, and wanted to pour tea for the eldest lady
At this time, she also heard the sound of the twilight drum on the upper floor of the Ji Clan's business inn.
Ji Qingchen lifted his skirt and went up.
The three-storey horse building, the second and third floors are full of goods, on the small platform on the top, the morning bell and dusk drum of Tangfang are erected, which is being beaten by the guys, and the drum is far away from the sea.
Evening tide is coming.
"Big sister, this is the transfer deed written by Xie Guoyun himself, and I will transfer the two nine-story arrow towers outside Tangfang to you."
After the meal, the tea had been drunk, and Mr. Li was dealing with the ransom in the front hall, she and Huang Qilang were talking, standing on the third floor platform together, looking at the sea.
Seeing that the man had retired, he took out a letter of transfer from his sleeve, handed it to her, and said:
"Brother Wang Xian personally went to the Xie family in Taizhou, met with the retired boss of the Xie family, and talked to him."
"Xie Jiajian Tower?"
She was slightly surprised, and Huang Qilang smiled bitterly:
"He came from Mingzhou this time, and he didn't want to come to ask for a third time, he had already prepared this gift, and he wanted to make peace with you, but he didn't expect that Lord Lou was too powerful, forcing him to have no choice."
He seemed to be saying that Fujian maritime merchants entered the East China Sea this time, and of course he didn't want to tell Lou Yun about Lou Yun hanging her portrait in the cabin, but he let Wang Shiqiang see it.
After ten years of unremitting indoctrination and edification by his wife, in his eyes, she is really still the poor little girl who took her two younger brothers to eat together ten years ago, and she has to let his capable and kind wife look at a golden beetle son-in-law for her, and she can only survive in this life.
"Big sister, when you said that you were going to stop the business of counterfeit goods, I still think that you angered those maritime merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and now it seems that you have also calculated that they will count these accounts on the heads of Fujian maritime merchants?"
Although Huang Qilang is also a maritime merchant in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the goods he took were unique northwest goods, and he ate a unique business.
"Brother Huang Qi, where do I have that ability? I just think that since they want to return to the East China Sea, they will definitely let me stop the business of Bazhenzhai, of course, I can only prepare first, and the dissatisfaction of the maritime merchants in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang will of course have to bear some of them. ”
She smiled and brought it over, looked at the deed carefully, and put it in her hand.
The Xie family's position has always been impartial, not allowing the Siming Wang family to dominate in the East China Sea, but now they will accept Wang Shiqiang's persuasion, and they will not hesitate to give the arrow tower away, which is to show sincerity, and they are unwilling to let Tangfang and Quanzhou Chen family get too close -- she already understands the common position of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and maritime merchants.
"Brother Huang Qi, when you go back, you and Wang Gangshou will talk to me, I plan to hand over all the industries of Tangfang to my younger brothers, so if the small container terminal he built on the inland river wharf on Liangzhejiang Road needs to be renovated, you can discuss with Erlang, although the Song craftsman he brought back has the design drawings of the original Tangfang hydraulic hoisting machine, but in the past ten years, there have been a lot of changes in order to use it better, and the drawings are all in Erlang's hands - Wang Gangshou's four money furnaces in the Guanyin Courtyard should be regarded as Erlang's consulting fees."
"What?"
Huang Qilang was still worried about the impact of the civil strife in Fusang on his business, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded at this time, "What fee?" ”
Of course, he knows that there are many waterways and rivers in Liangzhejiang Road, and most of the traders and grass markets in various counties and states are also built along the river, Wang Shiqiang originally in order to join hands with her to market counterfeit goods, the implementation of containers, not only for Tangfang to cross the sea to invite skilled Song craftsmen, but also through the family's connections, a person with luggage on his back and a small boat to go all over the market.
He persuaded the merchants along the river to place orders collectively during the monsoon every year and place orders at the Huang Merchants' Inn.
Just like her, in order to open up the situation in Fuso, she not only lobbied the lords of Kyushu Island and Shikoku, but also took a boat with the monks, and found the merchants of the coastal feudal states along the Seto Inland Sea, and persuaded them to place orders at Karabo at the beginning of the monsoon.
In this way, not only copycat goods, but also all small transactions that were originally excluded from the East China Sea trade have used Tangfang containers to place orders and transport them in large quantities, saving costs.
And these accumulated small trades are the initial basis for Tangfang to break the official trade of Honglu Pavilion and rise rapidly in the East China Sea within ten years.
Similarly, it is precisely because Wang Shiqiang guided countless small maritime merchants and small shippers on the Liangzhejiang Road to participate in overseas trade at the same time that he was able to become the second maritime business leader of the Wang family in a hundred years.
As for the hydraulic hoisting wharves that Wang Shiqiang is now imitating Tangfang on the inland river, whether they are convenient in business or empty and useless at all, and more importantly, these wharves can improve the efficiency of the army's grain transportation and baggage transportation in addition to commercial goods.
If Tang Fang can help in this matter, of course, it will get twice the result with half the effort.
What's more, of course he, Huang Qilang, knew what was hidden in Wang Shiqiang's Guanyin Courtyard, but he didn't expect her to be so resolute, and he turned his face and got Wang Shiqiang's handle.
