The Chai family has been unlucky lately!

This news is not a secret among the nobles of Chang'an City.

The Chai family's honey industry was impacted by the Guanshishan Academy, and the impact was not very great.

However, the whaling team of the Chai family and the caravan that went to sea to trade disappeared one after another, and the meaning behind it is not ordinary.

You must know that whale oil candles are one of the most important incomes of the Chai family, and the output of whale jerky is also very large, as well as the sea trade, although it is the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese Kingdom, not as lucrative as the South Seas, but the annual income is not a small number.

Now that income is gone!

This is no small matter.

It's like a white-collar worker with an annual salary of one million, when the company's business is sluggish, you cancel his transportation subsidies, communication subsidies, catering subsidies, etc., and the impact is actually not very big.

However, if you cancel his performance salary and bonus, or even reduce the basic salary, the impact will be great.

Every family has its own fixed expenses, once the income does not cover the expenses, there is nothing in the short term, and it will definitely not work for a long time.

Although the Chai family is a big family, there are many people who raise it.

The family's income has suddenly decreased by six or seven percent, who can stand it?

"Big brother, if you want me to say, in fact, there is no need to investigate anymore. These things must have been done by Li Kuan, and he was the only one who had the strength to do such things so quietly. Don't let me get his hands on him, or I'll impeach him in front of your majesty. ”

Chai Lingwu stood beside Chai Zhewei very angrily.

During this time, he was also under a lot of pressure.

In the past, whether he went to Wuheju or Diandude, he was greeted with all kinds of flattering smiles.

Nowadays, he always feels like someone is pointing fingers behind his back.

He really can't accept this kind of gap.

"I told you a long time ago, not everyone in Chang'an City can afford to be messed with by our Chai family. Now that Aya and A-Niang are not alive, our Chai family is not as beautiful as it was back then, and there are many people who want to see our unlucky people. This Guanshishan Academy, in my opinion, you still have to find a time to visit, apologize for the students who beat them at the beginning, and by the way, donate an experimental building, which can be regarded as expressing the sincerity of our Chai family. ”

Chai Zhewei, as the head of the Chai family, still has some vision and courage.

However, it is obvious that Chai Lingwu's vision and mind do not even have a point from his brother.

"Big brother, I admit that it was my mistake to beat the students of Guanshishan Academy in the first place, but they have already taken revenge? Now that the Chu Wangfu has been bullied, not only do we not resist, but we want to apologize to them? I can't do this! ”

Chai Lingwu listened to his eldest brother's words and was about to get angry.

Since he was a child, he has never been so aggrieved.

Even as Li Chengqian's followers, the relationship between them is not like a superior, but more like a cooperative relationship.

Now that the Chai family has been bullied by the Chu Palace, [www.xbqg5200.xyz] do you have to apologize?

Is there any reason left?

He didn't want to think about it, how many people were bullied by him, and they also wanted to apologize?

"Rebellion? How do you resist? The entire Tang Dynasty, but if you still want to go to sea to make money, Chu Wangfu is an existence that cannot be offended, otherwise no matter how many things you go out, it will be meat buns and dogs, and there will be no return.

Besides, the business of Chang'an City has been wiped out, and how many industries are not involved in the Chu Wangfu? How many nobles are following the Chu Wangfu to make money? Now to go against the Chu Wangfu is to go against them, if our Chai family wants to stand tall, we must not go against the trend. ”

Chai Zhewei had an expression of hatred on his face, and expressed his helplessness to his younger brother.

Not to mention that he caused trouble every once in a while, just hugging Li Chengqian's thigh so early, he didn't approve of it.

To put it mildly, with the status of the Chai family in the Tang Dynasty, he can completely remain neutral in the competition for the prince, and no matter who ascends the throne, he will not be unable to get along with them.

After all, Princess Pingyang has really made great achievements against the Tang Dynasty.

To a certain extent, half of Datang's rivers and mountains were brought down by her.

If she weren't a woman, she might be the one on the throne.

As the son of Princess Pingyang, Chai Zhewei is not worried about the future of the family at all.

However, with an uneasy younger brother, everything has a lot of variables.

"But is that what we're going to do? What will the nobles of Chang'an City think of our family? ”

Chai Lingwu also knew that what his eldest brother said made sense, but he couldn't swallow the anger in his heart.

"In the past few years, although the Chu Wangfu has attracted many people to follow behind him to make money, it has not offended many people. This Li Kuan, I guess he was trying to make an example of killing chickens and monkeys, and you ran into it? Our Chai family has a great business and is famous in Chang'an City, but now it is the weakest time for the family, and we are caught and killed as chickens, isn't the effect a bargain? You don't have to think about what other nobles will think of our family now, but you have to think about what our family will become if we continue like this! ”

As if to confirm what Chai Zhewei said, the housekeeper Ma Feng walked in from outside.

"Uncle Ma, what's going on?"

His two brothers were obviously talking about things, if there was nothing important, Ma Feng would definitely not come over to disturb him.

Between master and servant, there is still a tacit understanding.

"Dalang, there is one thing I think I want to report to you."

Ma Feng glanced at Chai Lingwu with a complicated expression, and then arched his hand to talk to Chai Zhewei.

Hearing Ma Feng say this, Chai Zhewei sighed inexplicably in his heart.

The Chai family has recently received all kinds of bad news one after another, could it be that this matter is not over yet?

"What's the matter?"

Chai Zhewei took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

At this time, no matter what happens, he, the head of the family, must not panic.

Otherwise, the Chai family may really fall into a situation from which they will never recover.

Don't think that Li Shimin would help at that time, you must know that the marriage between Princess Pingyang and Chai Shao is actually not happy.

It's just that Li Shimin has a very good relationship with this sister, and he knows more about many things on the opposite side than others.

So he actually has a little bit of a grease with the Chai family in his heart.

Of course, no matter what, the Chai family is his sister's husband's family, and Li Shimin will not do anything about the Chai family.

It's just that at the critical moment, he may not necessarily deal with his son for the sake of the Chai family.

"A new inn has opened in Chang'an City."

"Home Inn?"

Listening to the words from the hornet's mouth, Chai Zhewei breathed a sigh of relief.

A few new inns will not be opened in Chang'an City one day, which is not a big deal.

However, he immediately thought that Yuelai Inn is now the most important source of income for the Chai family, could it be that this Inn has anything to do with his Yuelai Inn?
