Chapter 211: Fried into the gutter

After Shen Shixing received the order, he hurriedly announced that due to the many controversies surrounding the lifting of restrictions on clothes, carriages and horses, they would be put on hold for the time being.

When those officials heard this, they were immediately happy, this was their victory, at least they thought so.

But the four official teeth couldn't be happier.

The Jiang family.

"What the hell is going on?"

Jiang Shiyou said: "Didn't you say two days ago that the restrictions on the clothing of this carriage and horse will definitely be lifted this time?" ”

Zhao Fengyuan said in a little panic: "I don't know about this, what was said above at the time, many princes and nobles are also hoarding silk, this should not be fake." ”

"Since it's not fake, what's going on now?" Jiang Shiyou wondered.

Xiong Feng said with a solemn face: "Now is not the time to argue, we have to find a way to solve the fifteen thousand pieces of silk, we originally hoarded a lot of silk in our hands, and we don't need so much silk at all." ”

At this time, a butler walked into the hall, "Master, the price of silk has dropped by one point. ”

"One point?"

Jiang Shiyou was shocked and said: "How is this possible, it didn't rise by a single point at the beginning." ”

The steward said, "This is because there are rumors outside that the imperial court will strictly enforce the restrictions on the clothing of chariots and horses, and will also send brocade guards to arrest those who violate the rules, so most people are selling silk." ”

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Shiyou and the others hurriedly looked down at the clothes on their bodies.

A quarter of an hour later, the four of them changed into cloth clothes and returned to the lobby.

If you let Jinyiwei catch it, it will be nine deaths!

It's really no joke.

"We bought the fifteen thousand pieces of silk at a price four percent higher, and if we sell them all now, we will lose about five thousand taels even if we sell them all at once." Xiong Feng said.

Zhao Fengyuan said: "But the problem is that it is very difficult to make a move now. ”

Mao Shen said: "We only paid five thousand taels, we can return the goods, I believe that with the prestige of the four of us, those Suzhou and Hangzhou merchants will not dare to offend us easily." ”

Jiang Shiyou waved his hand and said: "It's just a few thousand taels, let's spread it evenly, it's not a lot, we can't offend those merchants in Suzhou and Hangzhou, besides, the profit from the timber side is tens of thousands of taels." ”

"Master, master, something is wrong."

I saw a shopkeeper about fifty years old, who ran in in a panic, panting and said, "Master, something is wrong." ”

Jiang Shiyou stood up directly and said, "What's going on?" ”

The shopkeeper said: "Just now, Guo Dan suddenly announced the termination of the cooperation contract with Chen Ping, and they will spend money to rent Xu Jirong's homeless camp and transform it into a racecourse. ”

When the four of them heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked.

"Exiles?"

Jiang Shiyou said: "How can the homeless camp be transformed into a racecourse? ”

Xiong Feng said: "This is impossible, even if they want to renovate the racecourse, they don't have wood." ”

The shopkeeper said, "It is said that they have rented all the surrounding villages, converted the houses of those people into tea shops and wine shops, and they have also converted a temple into a prize pool hall. ”

"It can't be, it can't be."

Jiang Shiyou shook his head again and again, and suddenly, he strode outside.

Zhao Fengyuan, Mao Shen, and Xiong Feng also hurriedly followed.

However, they did not even dare to sit in the carriage now, so they could only sit in an open-top donkey cart, braving the cold and biting north wind, and rushed to the camp camp outside the southern city.

But now they can't care about the cold.

When they came to the camp of the homeless camp, when they saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw that the homeless camp that was messy a few days ago has now become a racecourse, and there is no trace of the homeless camp at all.

And there are hundreds of craftsmen who are there to hammer and beat.

The villages around the camp are also full of people, steaming everywhere, it should be steaming something, this is not the time to eat, are these people developed?

"It's a conspiracy. This is Guo Dan's conspiracy. ”

Xiong Feng's eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth.

Looking at it now, it is not difficult to see that this must have been carefully selected.

Xu Jirong sold this piece of land very flat, sweeping away the surrounding debris, it is a racecourse, not only that, but there are also some small hills around, just like the seat they are standing now, the movement of the entire racecourse is in full view, but it can accommodate more people to watch the race, this experience is far better than the racetrack over there.

In addition, there are many village houses in the surrounding area, as long as they are slightly renovated, they can accommodate many people, and there is no need for wood construction at all.

"It's over! Finished! ”

Jiang Shiyou took two steps back.

The silk was only 30,000 taels, but the timber was not at this price, they bought all the timber on the market at a third of the price, and if they wanted to give it all, it would be a huge amount of money, and the four of them would divide it evenly, and it would be enough for them to drink a pot.

In fact, they didn't plan to ask for it all, because Guo Dan didn't need so much timber, they had an agreement with those big timber merchants, and after completing the sale at a high price, they would give them a sum of money, and then return the remaining timber to the timber merchants.

Of course, the timber merchants are willing, if they go to sell, the amount of timber will not increase, and the price will be lowered by Chen Ping, anyway, the four official teeth also paid them one-third of the money, how can they make a sure profit.

The four of them never thought that before they set their sights on Guo Dan, Guo Dan had already targeted them, in Guo Dan's plan, the first step was to eradicate them all, and this was a necessary step, otherwise, any action by Guo Dan would be restricted by them, and the risk would be too great.

You must know that the four of them all have official backgrounds, and Guo Dan has offended many officials, just like this time, when they started to target Guo Dan, many forces in the DPRK and China supported them, if this time it was not Guo Dan's own digging pit, then Guo Dan would be very troublesome.

Therefore, Guo Dan wanted to solve them before he made a big move, and he spent a lot of effort for this, and he also smashed tens of thousands of taels to deal with them.

......

"Captain Guo, you should have chosen this place a long time ago, this place is much better than there, the distance over there is not bad, there is nothing, and here, although it is a little simpler, haha, but at least there is a place to rest."

Jiang Qianhu, who was going to fight and kill a few days ago, hugged Guo Dan and laughed.

"Jiang Qianhu is reasonable, there are so many things here, just go out, I think we can hold Marseille every day."

"At least three days can be held once in Marseille."

.....

These loyal fans of Marseille heard the news and immediately rushed to the place and fell in love with it, which is a natural racecourse, close to the city.

Guo Dan just smiled and said nothing.

"Virtuous nephew, virtuous nephew, you will judge the judges."

Hearing a shout, I saw Zhou Feng and Cao Da, the two enemies, walking over with red faces.

"Virtuous nephew, I came first, those houses are my fancy and should be rented to me." Zhou Feng, who was born in a big family, was also foaming at the mouth with excitement at this time, no different from splashing skin.

Cao Da snorted: "What if you came first, you didn't negotiate with your nephew, and this contract was not signed, so naturally it can't be counted." ”

"Cao Da, Lao Tzu has put up with you for a long time, you don't have to make an inch."

Zhou Feng rolled up his sleeves.

Cao Da saw that your old boy dared to roll up his sleeves, so he quickly rolled up his sleeves and said, "Are you going to fight, okay, whoever wins will belong to whom." ”

"Two, two."

Guo Dan hurriedly stopped in the middle and said: "The two of you and I are both old friends, I don't want to earn your money, if you can't argue, then you can only get the highest price, but I advise you to negotiate privately." ”

Cao Da and Zhou Fengke are both very shrewd, if the highest bidder wins, it will definitely exceed their expectations, silently put down their sleeves, and then silently stepped aside.

Jiang Qianhu was curious: "What are they fighting for?" ”

Guo sighed: "It's just a few village houses. ”

"Village house?"

Jiang Qianhu was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked around, pointing to the dilapidated village houses around him, "Are those village houses?" ”

Guo Dan nodded.

Everyone was speechless for a while.

Zhou Feng and Cao Dake are both well-known wealthy businessmen in the capital, but now they are fighting for a few village houses...... However, they found that many people had already started fighting, and even two of them were fighting while rolling down the hillside, and several people tried to pull, but they couldn't pull away.

This man dies for wealth, and the bird dies for food.

At this moment, you can't be polite, because this Marseille is put here, here is a prime location, the surrounding housing rent, instantly more than Mashi Street, although a month is about eight days, bet a day, race a day, but the flow of passengers in these eight days is unimaginable, the key is that there is no place to go around, can only sit in the surrounding houses, this is really a visible profit.

And the people around this are from poor peasants to well-off overnight, Guo Dan not only rented their houses at a high price, but also gave them some stalls to do business here, today's income alone has exceeded their income in a year, because the loyal fans of Marseille have come, they have to eat and drink here, and they don't ask for it.

Now Zhou Feng and they have not yet entered the market, and now these people who sell cakes and tea are all people who originally lived here.

The people on the other side of the river, seeing this, have the heart to die, just these few steps away, it is really the difference between heaven and hell.

At this time, a carriage slowly came here, and I saw Xu Mengxuan get down from the carriage.

"So lively?"

Xu Mengxi looked at the sea of people and couldn't help but be surprised.

Suddenly, several figures flashed beside him, and before he could see it clearly, he heard a laugh and said: "Xing'anbo, our Xu and Zhang families are world friends, and this private room can't be without the old man's share." ”

Xu Mengxi turned his head to look and saw that it was an old man with black and white hair, and hurriedly said, "Oops! British Public. ”

This old man is none other than the British Gongzhang Yuangong.

A voice sounded on the other side, "Xing'anbo, we are also world friends!" ”

Xu Mengxuan turned his head away again and exclaimed, "Cheng Guogong." ”

This person is Zhu Lizhi's father, Zhu Yingzhen, the Duke of Chengguo.

Someone heard in front of him: "Xing Anbo, don't forget, when those people impeached you, I supported you, you can't be ungrateful." ”

Xu Mengxuan looked forward, "Uncle Xiangcheng." ”

This person is Xiangcheng Bo Li Chenggong, Li Shouqi his father.

"What are you talking about?" Xu Mengxi was stunned.

Zhang Yuangong said: "Don't you know, the private rooms of this racecourse are all in the hands of your precious grandson, if the old man goes to him, it will inevitably be a bit big and small, and you still have to arrange this matter." ”

"Racetrack? Private rooms? Bullying the small? ”

The more Xu Mengxi listened, the more confused he became, and he was muttering in his heart, what did this kid do out of the ordinary.

At this time, Xu Mao suddenly said, "Master, the little master is over there." ”

"Where?"

Xu Mengxi raised his head and saw Xu Jirong wearing an extremely conspicuous red cloak, surrounded by a group of sons, standing on a small hillside, pointing at the country, and came up angrily, roaring: "Rong'er." ”

"Who's calling me?"

Xu Jirong looked left and right, and suddenly saw Xu Mengxi, and hurriedly ran over, "Grandpa, why are you here?" ”

You must know that this is the case, so the old man will not come. Xu Mengxi said: "What the hell is going on? ”

Xu Jirong said: "This thing is strange and indifferent. ”

"It's that kid again."

Xu Mengxuan's eyes bulged, thinking to himself, our grandfather and grandson will be killed by him one day. said: "I didn't tell you, don't talk to... Ahem, what the hell is going on, you tell me clearly, I heard that you rented this homeless camp to Guo Dan. ”

Xu Jirong said with annoyance: "That's it, my grandson originally bought this land to do good deeds, but he had to rent my land, and he said that he would give me a rent of 1,000 taels a month......." ”

"A thousand taels of rent a month."

Xu Mengxuan exclaimed.

Zhang Yuangong and Li Chenggong, the princes and earls of the country, all took a breath of cold air.

What the hell is this rent, and he looked down again, is there gold in the ground?

There was no one to ask for this land before, there was no transportation, and it was impossible to farm, and it was a thousand taels a month, is it because the value of silver has depreciated?

Xu Jirong said: "Yes, but our Xu family lacks this money, the grandson doesn't want to rent, the grandson just wants to do good deeds, but there is no way, he walks around the back of my ass every day, and the grandson is so noisy that he can't stand it, so he agreed to rent it to him." ”

Put on airs! Loser... Is this a loser?

Li Chenggong's face was confused, my son is so shrewd, but he has never made so much money, but this loser can make so much money, what is the reason for this.

The corners of Xu Mengxi's mouth twitched, and he couldn't wait to slap him over, how much does it cost to build a refugee camp, now the rent is 1,000 taels a month, you don't want to rent it yet, endure your anger, and said with a smile: "Rong'er, you are kind, and grandpa is also very supportive of you, but since you have already rented it, there is nothing to say, grandpa wants to know, what is the matter with these private rooms mentioned by your grandpa and uncle?" ”

Xu Jirong grinned and said: "This is all because my grandson also likes to watch Marseille, so when I talked lightly, my grandson didn't rent it to him on the dozen or so small hills around the racecourse, and I was thinking about building some big private rooms there, so that my grandson could watch the game from different angles with my grandfather, oh, and aunt, but it was very enjoyable." ”

"Rong'er."

Zhang Yuangong looked at Xu Jirong with great dissatisfaction, "Your Xu family is a single transmission of nine generations, how can you need so many private rooms, and from different angles, it is really unreasonable, your Grandpa Zhang is full of children and grandchildren, and you can sit down with two more large private rooms for Grandpa Zhang." ”

Li Chenggong nodded frequently and said: "The British prince is right, there are only three people in your Xu family, and a small private room is enough, I don't need it, I can rent it out." ”

Xu Menghui almost spurted blood, this person was hard, and roared: "What about the three of them, the old man still likes to watch the game from different angles, and those private rooms are all from my old Xu family." Rong'er, we don't rent one. ”

Xu Jirong nodded straight and said, "Grandson knows." ”

Zhang Yuangong snorted: "There are only three people in your Xu family, how much land can you occupy, and if you squeeze it, it will be the old man who takes advantage!" ”
