Chapter 225: Bitter in my heart!
Don't ask, it's annoying to ask!
Those dignitaries and dignitaries, when they heard that Guo Dan was a small tooth businessman, dared to threaten them, this money is a trivial matter, and the face is big.
Mashi Street.
A horse-drawn carriage galloped down the street and headed straight for Kou's house.
When passing by a tea shop, I saw a middle-aged man walking out of the house, and he shouted towards the carriage: "It's Xiangcheng Bo in the car." ”
The carriage stopped suddenly, the curtain was lifted, and Li Chenggong looked out of the car, "It turned out to be Wang Shilang." ”
That person was Wang Fei, the servant of the ministry.
After that, he got out of the carriage, looked at the tea shop, and asked curiously: "Why is Wang Shilang here?" ”
Wang Fei smiled: "I'm here to watch the play." ”
"Watching a play?"
Li Chenggong looked at Wang Fei suspiciously.
Wang Fei asked, "I don't know why Xiangcheng Bo is here?" ”
"I am... Ahem. ”
As soon as the words came out, Li Chenggong suddenly coughed twice.
Wang Fei smiled and said, "Uncle Xiangcheng came to settle accounts with the tooth merchant Guo Dan?" ”
"How do you... Are you too? Li Chenggong was surprised.
Wang Fei nodded: "My family has always cooperated with Jinyulou, but that little tooth merchant actually did not allow my family's grain to enter the horse racing area. ”
"This damn tooth merchant is getting more and more lawless." Li Chenggong immediately said angrily: "The tooth merchant also does not allow my family's wine to enter the horse racing area." ”
At this time, several more people came out of the house.
"Why are you there?" Li Chenggong was slightly startled, and immediately reacted, "It seems that that kid has offended a lot of people." ”
One of them smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiangcheng Bo, wait here for a while, and wait to see how the British Duke teaches that kid a lesson." ”
"British duke? He was offended even by the English duke. ”
"Yes, the British Duke has already settled accounts with the little tooth merchant, and you and I know the British Prince's violent temper, I hope I don't make any trouble."
.....
Kou's house.
"You say, you say, you say! Woo woo... What did the boy get? In addition to being hated and taught a lesson by you, the kid didn't get anything, the kid just wanted to raise a few more good horses for my Ming soldiers, woo woo---! ”
I saw Guo Danslim standing in the lobby, holding a silk handkerchief in one hand, wiping the tears that fell, and crying at the British Duke Zhang Yuangong sitting above.
Zhang Yuangong sat on the chair and said to Kou Zhuansha beside Guo Dan with an embarrassed expression: "Quick... Tell him not to cry, there is no shame in crying like this. ”
"Husband!"
Kou Zhuansha gently pulled Guo Dan's arm with one hand.
Guo Dan's body twisted, broke free, and cried aggrievedly: "The boy gave birth to one, and he entered the Kou family, not hesitating to be dignified in the prosperous world, and not seeking to be heard by the princes." The saint does not treat the boy as despicable, but consults the boy with the affairs of the horse, so he is grateful, and he does not hesitate to do so. Regarding this matter, the kid informed him early on that he would offend many people, and even maybe the head of the person would fall to the ground, which was really a thankless thing, but the kid couldn't live up to the grace of God, and he couldn't live up to the expectations of my Ming soldiers for the kid. British male, you cut down the boy, so that the boy will suffer here. ”
"No... It's not that serious, the old man just came to ask about the situation, let you say this, the old man has become a traitor, it's really unreasonable. ”
Zhang Yuangong looked depressed, what is this, he originally came to settle accounts with Guo Dan, but as soon as he shouted, Guo Dan cried to death, which made him at a loss.
"Woooooo The kid didn't dare, but the kid was really wronged in his heart! The British prince said, if the kid doesn't do this, how much more money does the kid make, and now the kid spends money to rent land, and gives VIP cards, and helps you raise horses, and also, and gives away an attic, woo woo... After spending so much money, you have to be scolded....... The kid is wronged! ”
"Oops! Don't cry, you're crying so much that the old man is upset. ”
Zhang Yuangong waved his hand again and again, and said with a headache: "This time the old man misunderstood you, it was the old man's fault, the old man rented the land to you, don't you cry?" ”
"Hmm!"
Guo Dan suddenly glared at Kou Zhuansha and said, "You mother-in-law is still standing here stupidly, hurry up and give the contract to the British duke!" ”
"Huh? Oh. Be. ”
Kou Zhuansha was stunned, and was awakened by Guo Dan's shouting, and quickly took out a contract and respectfully handed it to Zhang Yuangong, "Zhang Yuangong, please take a look." ”
"Alright, alright. You don't dare to deceive. ”
Zhang Yuangong took the contract and signed his name directly, "That's it, the old man will leave first if he has something." ”
With that, he got up and fled.
Leaving Kou Zhuansha to hold the contract, she was silent, slowly turned her head, and looked at Guo Dan, who was still sobbing, "Husband, the British Duke has already left." ”
"I know, but people are too deep into the play, and they won't be able to slow down for a while." Guo Dan wiped his tears and stomped his foot gently.
A sissy!
Kou Zhuan Sha suddenly fell goosebumps to the ground, is this my husband?
Guo Dan stepped forward, took the contract from Kou Zhuansha's hand, his wet eyelashes trembled, and he choked up: "The man doesn't flick when he has tears, just because the price is not in place." ”
"Poof!"
Kou Zhuisa immediately burst out laughing.
"You're still laughing!"
Guo Dan suddenly grabbed Kou Zhuan yarn with one hand.
"Yikes!"
provoked Kou Liansha to exclaim.
"Do you know, these tears should have been shed by you, but it's a pity that you were born like a fairy, this tear, I'm afraid that the old pervert of the British Duke will be moved, so the husband went into battle in person, you should be good to comfort me, tonight the husband doesn't want to move, are you good on it?"
"Phew!"
Kou Liansha gently pushed Guo Dan away, and said lightly and angrily: "It's not serious at all, but the British prince is not like you." ”
Guo Dan was furious: "Of course it's not like me, do you remember those small squares, the biggest of which was hit on the face of the British public." ”
“.....!”
.....
Zhang Yuangong had just walked out of the alley, and when he was about to get into the car, he suddenly heard a shout.
"How can this be reasonable, I have to teach that kid a good lesson today."
When I turned my head, I saw Li Chenggong, Wang Fei and others coming over menacingly.
"British duke."
"Xia Guan has seen the British duke."
When they saw Zhang Yuangong, they hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
Zhang Yuangong asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Li Chenggong said in a stunned voice: "We are here to teach Guo Dan what it means to be respectful and humble, he is a small tooth merchant, and he dares to threaten us to rent the land to them." ”
As they spoke, many people glanced at Kou's house to see if anyone was shouting Lang Zhong or crying.
"Don't go, it's just a misunderstanding." Zhang Yuangong waved his hand.
"Misunderstanding?"
Everyone looked at Zhang Yuangong with a confused expression.
It's not what they imagined!
Zhang Yuangong nodded and said: "It's not easy for Guo Dan, he didn't hesitate to lose his capital this time, he didn't hesitate to offend the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, but to repay His Majesty's kindness, for my Ming soldiers to be able to ride horses, you and I are both Ming courtiers, and we should support him." ”
“.....!”
In the cold wind, everyone's thoughts were messy.
When did the British public be so reasonable?
Zhang Yuangong waved his hand to the housekeeper beside him again, "Show them the contract that Fang just signed." ”
"Yes."
The butler immediately handed the contract respectfully.
Li Chenggong snatched it up, opened it and took a look, and the rest of the people turned their heads one after another.
Zhang Yuangong said: "You see, people are sending attics and Marseille VIP cards, and those lands are placed over there to grow food, but they are not worth so much money." Guo Dan is not stupid like this, he lost his capital and came to offend us, the old man looked at him, he really wanted to cultivate a good horse for my Ming Dynasty. ”
Li Chenggong and the others looked at each other with an embarrassed smile on their faces.
Although they are unhappy in their hearts, but the British duke has said so, what else can they say, they can't say, I don't care if Da Ming is good or not, I know that he offended me, and he deserves to die.
Having said that, this paper contract does give a lot of benefits, at least more than farming.
Guo Dan didn't intend to pit them for this amount of money, it was nothing.
At this point, everyone has accepted it, and it is not okay if you don't accept it, there are already many people who lease the land to Guo Dan, and there is no way to resist if you want to resist, and it is them, there is no reason to get along with the money, those lands are placed over there, and they are also tenant farmers planting, who rents is not renting, after going back, immediately send a housekeeper to Guo Dan to negotiate the matter of renting land.
The rest of the people saw that they all leased the land to Guo Dan, so they also leased the land to Guo Dan.
And it's all rented every ten years.
In half a month, Guo Dan rented back all the land that they had occupied, although it was a little sad, those lands were originally owned by the imperial court, but no matter what, they could finally raise horses.
Moreover, Guo Dan did not stop there, he also rented some land, and then directly divided ten pastures into three large ranches.
It's winter now, so you can plant grass directly next year.
With pasture and money, this horse is naturally no problem.
.....
Cabinet.
"That kid is really amazing! After a few months of hard work, all those lands were rented back, and now those three large ranches and 5,000 good horses are really more than enough! ”
Wang Xijue couldn't help but sigh.
Wang Jiaping sighed gloomily when he heard it.
Wang Xijue said: "Why is Uncle Zhong sighing? ”
Wang Jiaping smiled bitterly: "At the beginning, the imperial court tried every means to prevent them from encroaching on the pasture, but what they got was intensified, but now a small tooth merchant is ......" ”
At this, he looked embarrassed.
Wang Xijue was silent when he heard it.
This really hurts their self-esteem, no matter what tricks Guo Dan uses, but he can raise horses, which is something they can't do with all their efforts, they are still cabinet ministers.
It's a bit sad indeed.
.....
Qianqing Palace.
"You've done a good job."
Wanli nodded with a smile, and said to Guo Dan again: "But I heard that you spent a lot of money to rent back those lands. ”
He was actually a little unhappy in his heart, the land was originally owned by the imperial court, and now that he rented it back, he had to use his money.
Guo Dan grinned and said: "Your Majesty, this is a profitable business, you don't need to pay from Marseille at all, it is more than enough to use the money from the Taifu Temple to deal with it." ”
Wanli was surprised: "How is this possible? ”
Guo Dan took out an account book, handed it to Wanli, and said, "Your Majesty, please take a look." ”
Li Gui hurriedly took the elder and handed it to Wanli.
Wanli blocked his hand and said to Guo Dan: "Look at the account book, I believe you, you say yes." ”
If you're lazy, you're lazy, what believe me. Guo smiled lightly: "Your Majesty, that's the case, when we signed the contract with the Taifu Temple, we used ten ranches to negotiate the price, and now we have merged into three ranches, which has saved a lot of costs, whether it is manpower or material resources, and it is easy to manage, we have not lost anything." ”
"I see."
Wanli nodded, pointed at Guo and smiled lightly: "I know that you won't do this loss-making business." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment." Guo Dan smiled.
Wanli suddenly remembered something, and said, "That's right! I heard that the stock price of your tooth shop has doubled. ”
Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Thanks to His Majesty's Marseille, the stock price of Yaxing has risen a lot." ”
Wanli listened to it very badly, why didn't he rise to Marseille and asked: "Do you think this Marseille can also be a joint-stock system?" ”
When Guo Dan heard this, he couldn't help but look at Wanli blankly.
Wanli said: "What? Isn't it okay? ”
"Nope."
Guo Dan shook his head and said, "Of course it is, Your Majesty is really benevolent and righteous, and he is very respectful." ”
Wanli was stunned, he didn't think about benevolence and righteousness, he just made more money, and asked, "You... What do you mean by that? ”
Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is really no way to make more money if you don't have much money in the tooth shop." But Marseille is different, Marseille profit is so high, once the joint-stock system, etc. is a penny for everyone to spend, as the so-called solo is not as good as the crowd, in order to respond to His Majesty's call, the humble is willing to be the first to buy shares. ”
"Ahem, ahem... I'm just asking, asking, hehe... ”
Wanli glanced at Guo Dan, you kid is also treacherous, and you actually want to share my money.
