0245 Qujiang Cherry Orchard
Although the Yang brothers and sisters were sincere, Li Tong still did not accept the property donated by Yang Li, and the reason was very simple, he did not need this kind of contribution.
If it was just family wealth, he didn't lack it, not to mention anything else, just 800 households from the feudal state were enough to maintain his daily needs. There are many guests and gifts in and out, and if there is no hoarding curiosity, his family life is enough to maintain above the vast majority of people in the world.
The world is accustomed to the trend, only to flow to the text to intervene, businessmen to profit goods for favor, this is a fashion that can not be eliminated from ancient times to the present. No matter what Yang Li's intentions are, the nature of a businessman is Shang Li.
Li Tong did not force everyone to join him in eating chaff to make a revolution, he wanted to create a long-term cooperative relationship with the Yang family of this Shu merchant, so he had to draw a bottom line from the beginning, and did not have that kind of selfish relationship between each other.
After all, even if he is seeking wealth, he is not for his own extravagant enjoyment, to put it selfishly, he hopes that the change of dynasty can be the first to cut the line, and the great point is that he hopes to borrow the character resources he has mastered, through the organization of the Old Clothes Society, to give a little comfort to the people in this world.
And even if he collects these properties into the palace, he will soon be included in the monitoring, and he will no longer be able to call them calmly.
There are always eyes and ears in his palace, which Li Tong knows very well, and he doesn't want to screen and eliminate these eyes and ears, although these eyeliners monitor his daily behavior, but they are also a kind of protection for him, and the movements do not exceed the rules, and they are kept secretly outside the palace. As long as he actively expands his influence and makes his own fortune and misfortune related to the general trend, even if any small mistakes are monitored, it is not enough to shake his safety.
Yang Xianzong wanted to be more aware of the personnel structure under the king's command, and when he saw that his cousin was still going to be forced, he simply took the initiative to take the brocade box, and said: "The king is benevolent, he does not accept personal favors, and his humble duties do not disturb the king, and he will make proper arrangements." ”
He was originally one of the direct cases of the Wannian Branch of the Ancient Clothing Society, and when these industries were handed over to the branch, there was naturally a special person responsible for the overall planning. In addition to Shangyi, there is actually no lack of private schemes.
Yang Xianzong is very clear that the old clothes society is now strong, Heluo, Hedong, Qinyong three major clubs, and there are eight branches such as Chang'an, Wannian, Luoyang, Hegong, etc., covering more than 100,000 people, and the three religions and nine streams between the two capitals have influence.
At present, his family is donating the Xijing industry, which seems to be a generous gift, but in the long run, it also allows his family to connect with the behemoth of the Old Clothes Society, and they communicate with each other and benefit from each other.
The delivery of the industry, Li Tong is not in the house, but the Yang family donated to help the old clothing society, he still has to say something. After thinking about it, he still raised his hand and instructed his family to take the deed of Qujiang Garden that Wu Youyi had sent and give it to the Yang brothers and sisters.
"The rest of the case is not enough to be detailed. Erlang is diligent and righteous, I am deeply felt, talk as a gift, and help your family settle in the guest house. ”
The industry near Qujiang Pond has attracted much attention, and it is not suitable for the operation of the old clothing company. All the talents in the palace who have any management talents have also been sent by Li Tong one after another.
Especially this garden industry was taken from the Dou family, Li Tong suspected that Wu Youyi was deliberately provoking to give it away so boldly, although he didn't care much about the Dou family, but if this garden industry was left in his hands, it would be a waste if the operation was bad, and if it was well managed, it would make the Dou family have a long-term grudge, so it was better to give it away.
And Li Tong also wanted to take this opportunity to test this Yang Li's business ability, if a Qujiang garden industry is not well run, even if he has to cooperate with the Yang family in the future, he simply asked his family to send other personnel to be responsible for contact.
Yang Li didn't know too much about the secrets, seeing that the property was not given away, but she was given a luxury business, she was inevitably apprehensive, but her cousin was also persuading her to accept it, so she could only take it hard.
On the one hand, it is natural to admire the king more, on the other hand, there is also a hidden joy, she does not take the garden industry given by the king as private property, only to replace the palace for business management, with this layer of relationship care, this is of great help to her family's activities in Xijing, at least do not have to worry about being suppressed by the hometown feud by the official power as before.
The middle hall was still full of guests, and Li Tong didn't talk to the Yang brothers and sisters for too long, and after the initial contact, he signaled the government officials to lead the two out of the house.
When the brothers and sisters of the Yang family came to the palace on the way, the situation was different, when they appeared outside the side door, there were many people who greeted them, or they were unrealistic, only to make false greetings, and the servant of the Duke of Qian who guarded the incense car stepped forward to hand over a door post, saying that the gift goods given by the Lord Lang Aiji, and invited him to come to Japan to thank him.
"The flip of human feelings has really changed in an instant. In the past, I couldn't ask for it, but now I don't need it, but there are people who come in waves. ”
Sitting in the car home, Yang Li looked at the door stickers she had just received outside the palace, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and at the same time said with some dissatisfaction: "Today's visit is to give a gift of gratitude, I don't know what the king is for Brother, but my family is fortunate to climb the noble mansion, Brother, why do you stop me from being thoughtful?" ”
Yang Xianzong's spirit was good, and after hearing this, he only smiled and said: "The king doesn't make me usual, and the detailed rules can't tell you." I can only tell the fourth sister that the king is far more grand than what you see. As for these properties, since you have given up, there is no need to ask where to go, and in the future, my family can also store and sell the goods. ”
Yang Li sneered when she heard this, and then carefully stroked the garden deed: "You don't have to boast in front of me, usually I have no way to follow, but now the king pays me and manages it with my heart, and I may be more confidant than you in the coming year!" ”
"I didn't mean to hide these things from you, but whether I told you or not, it was the king's decision. In short, with the protection of the king, there will be no more troubles in the past, and I can concentrate more on receiving the king's secret orders. But in the future, it will not be easy to go in and out with you, even if there is no trace of you, Ah Mei, you don't have to inquire deeply, what I have to do is far more difficult than your business......"
Yang Li was a little unimpressed, but after hearing this, her face became a little heavy, and she grabbed her cousin's wrist and said in a condensed voice: "Don't meet again, if I have any complaints, it's just gossip, brother, you still have to remember that life is important after all." Although the king of Hedong is benevolent and amiable, he is a star high above, we are just a small plant in the grass in Shuzhong, if we are really unable to cater to the great wish of the benefactor, we only hide this kindness in our hearts, and we don't have to give up our lives to chase hard. Even if you return to the countryside, there are still rural areas that can keep a safe life, and if the people are gone, they will ......"
When Yang Xianzong heard this, a trace of resoluteness flashed on his face, and he patted the back of his cousin's hand with his backhand and comforted: "Family business planning, I am not as thoughtful and cautious as the fourth sister, but I am still righteous, and you are not as brave and resolute as me." Let's not persuade each other to be misguided, just do our part. ”
Seeing her cousin say this, Yang Li could only sigh secretly and say nothing more. Their brother and sister are very assertive, this cousin seems to be afraid of her, but in fact, he is also mostly loving, if he can really obey the teaching, he will not leave home for several years without returning home.
Yang Xianzong stayed at home for a few days, and then left one day without further explanation.
As for Yang Li, she is not like a headless fly in Xijing like before. She officially received the Quchifang Garden Industry presented by the King of Hedong, which caused a lot of sensation in some personnel circles in Xijing, but there was no major turmoil, after all, the current attention of Xijing people is still next month's Qujiang Yaji.
Without the trouble of personnel disputes, and getting a post-production by the Qujiang Pond, Yang Li also held back a lot of strength in her heart, wanting to fight for a performance in front of the king.
Qujiang Garden is beautiful, and there are many civil engineering projects recently, such as the Shaoling Plain that Yang Li had previously targeted, and has begun to build kilns to burn bricks.
The garden industry presented by the king of Hedong is not small, and the location is good, almost close to the Huangyuan Furong Garden, after all, the original owner Dou is also a leader in the Guanlong noble group.
But Yang Li felt that this was far from enough, and she couldn't achieve the amazing effect she wanted. After taking over the garden business, the first thing is to conduct a field trip. The operation of the garden industry of the Dou family is very good, there are winding water around the garden, the fruit forest is dense, there are buildings and miscellaneous orchards, living in elegance and quiet, and can also reap the benefits of the garden.
Yang Li's first decision was to uproot all the variegated flowers and trees in the garden, only keep a few old cherry trees, name this other industry as a cherry orchard, and tell all the surrounding residences to buy cherry trees, in terms of value, the price even reached hundreds or even thousands of dollars, and the best fruit plants should be transplanted into the garden, and the quality was not enough, and they were cut down directly on the spot.
After this operation, in less than half a month, the entire Qujiang Pond surrounding the garden, except for the Huangyuan Furong Garden, there are no cherry plants in the Yu family. Even if there are still survivors, under Yang Li's heavy money, it also makes Xijing Shiliu know that Qujiang cherries are the best cherry orchards, and the rest are inferior hybrids, which are not good.
Of course, if there is no King of Hedong as a backer behind him, even if Yang Li has a lot of money, it is difficult to make such a spectacular action. After all, there are powerful people around Qujiangchi, and no one will be willing to be forced by a businessman in some way.
Yang Li made another amazing move, that is, to build several famous flower picking boats, day and night constantly through the waterways around Qujiang Pond, and everyone who saw famous flowers and rare plants would buy them with a lot of money.
Her heroism has been spread in Xijing when buying cherry plants, and with the official entry of the flower-picking boat, the surrounding owners of these gardens have been moved to transplant their own beautiful flowers to the side of the water.
Of course, there are many powerful people in Xijing, and not everyone is greedy for material gains. But everyone has the desire to win, even if they don't sell it, they want to show off a little. In particular, the ship that buys flowers is loaded with treasures, and once you visit the famous plants, you will ask for them, which also greatly satisfies the vanity of the owner.
For a time, the famous flowers on both sides of the waterway around Qujiang Pond are amazing, the boat travels in the winding water, looking left and right, it can be described as beautiful, although there is still a period of time from the May Yaji, but the surroundings of Qujiang Pond are already full of tourists, fragrant and hot.
