Chapter 40 A golden silkworm robe, the Bian's big deal
Where is Bianliang? In Xiliang, drinking spirits, I don't want to leave yet.
Where is the young master of the Bian family? In Lincheng, he couldn't walk to enjoy the flowers in the courtyard.
The secret decree given by the emperor of the Southern Dynasty to the Bianjia family, the young master of the Bianjia family must not leave Lincheng! Because it is a secret decree, no one else knows except for the young master of the Bian family and the old ancestor grandmother of the Bian family.
The Bianjia is too important to the Southern Dynasty, the emperor does not allow the men of the Bianjia to leave Lincheng at all, and the young master of the Bianjia has never left, he doesn't want to go, he can't go!
But now, the housekeeper of the Bian family actually received a message, a news that he heard ridiculously.
Outside the door, there was an envoy from the Hu Kingdom, who came from Tongguan, saying that the young master of their Bian's family had redeemed a saint by exchanging a piece of clothing for a thousand taels of silver.
Isn't that a big joke!
Could it be that the Bianjia family looked for a woman to enter the house, planted such an illegitimate child, and then ran to Hu again, isn't this nonsense!
Lincheng, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, no matter how capable the Bian family is, it is impossible to do this thing seamlessly!
So, it must be Hu Guo messing around.
"Send it away, the young master is in the courtyard!" The governor instructed his subordinates that although Hu was an enemy country, it was only an envoy, and the two countries still had frequent contacts.
It's a pity that the business of the Bianjia family can't be opened in the Hu State like the envoy, it's not that the emperor explicitly stipulated, but the master of the Bianjia can't go out of the city, how can he talk about such a big business.
To open a business in Hu country, you must have the support of the big man of Hu country, and the owner of the Bian family nodded, these two things are indispensable.
The Bian's family couldn't go out of the city, and the bigwigs of the Hu country didn't dare to come to the city, so this matter has been far away.
If one day, he can go to Hu Guo to open a store, which is also a thing that the ancestors of the Bianjia family are looking forward to.
She looked forward to it all her life, and she was disappointed for a lifetime.
The subordinate went according to his instructions, but the envoy of the Hu State still did not give up, so he handed over the clothes to the subordinate and asked him to report again.
This messenger was none other than the palace director of the saint's shop.
If the Bian family admits it without even looking at the clothes, he still can't believe it, if he looks at the clothes, it will be different.
Golden silkworm clothes, there is no semicolon, if it weren't for a character like the third prince, I was afraid that I would have swallowed the clothes and ran away, how could I send the clothes back.
But he also knew that compared to the Bian's business, a golden silkworm coat was nothing!
"Why, you still won't leave!" The housekeeper saw that the person was holding the clothes in his hand, and he understood that the other party was not dead.
"Come, look, what kind of clothes it is! can make Hu Guoren so persistent. The butler took the garment as he spoke, and after a glance, he almost fell to the ground.
The housekeeper can naturally recognize this kind of thing at a glance.
The housekeeper of the golden silkworm coat has seen a lot, if it is just a golden silkworm robe, it will not make him act so exaggerated.
Although Hu didn't have it, there were many people in the palace of the Southern Dynasty.
But the pattern of each golden silkworm robe is still a little different, and the pattern of the golden silkworm robe in his hand is not dragon-shaped.
The dragon-shaped pattern can only be worn by the royal relatives, but it is not only the imperial relatives who can wear the golden silkworm clothes, but also the Bian family, as well as the father of the current prince, the living immortal of the Jiang Temple, and Li Changsheng of the Li family!
The pattern of this dress, the housekeeper recognized it when he saw it, but he still carefully opened his sleeves, there was a long word in the sleeve on the left, and a new word on the right, who was it if it wasn't Li Changsheng!
The housekeeper is very loyal to the Bianjia family, and he is even more proud of the Bianjia, looking at Lincheng, except for the emperor, who dares to show the face of the Bianjia!
No one dares to pretend to be the young master of the Bian family.
But he also knew that no matter how powerful and powerful the Bian family was, it couldn't match the young master of the Li family.
If the young master of the Li family pretends to be the young master of the Bianjia family, it is not a loss of the face of the Bianjia family, it is a face for the Bianjia family, a big long face, and people in the whole Southern Dynasties will think that the Bianjia family has a special face and a special face.
Who is Li Changsheng? The prince's father, this identity, the emperor can suppress him, he is also a master of the Five Saints, in terms of force, only he can suppress others!
So the housekeeper is very embarrassed, he can't be the master of this matter at all, he must find someone who can be the master.
Of course, the one who can call the shots will not be the young master who appreciates the flowers, it must be the ancestor who drinks tea, the ancestor of the Bian family.
In the quiet living room of the Bianjia family, the ancestor sat on the carved mahogany chair in the middle, and there was always an incense burner smoking beside her, so that the entire hall of the Bianjia family had a faint fragrance, and in front of her table, there was a newly brewed dragon well.
After listening to the housekeeper's words, the ancestor pondered for a moment, and then asked the housekeeper to invite the guests of Hu Guo to the side room to rest, and then asked the next person to invite the shopkeeper over.
The old ancestor held the golden silkworm robe in his hand, thoughtful, and did not speak.
The owner of the Bianjia family can't go out of the city, so naturally he can't be the shopkeeper, and the business of the Bianjia family is all over the Southern Dynasties, although each branch has a small boss watching, but after a long time, it is inevitable that some things need to be done by the shopkeeper.
If the master can't do it, then he can only hire it, the shopkeeper hired by the Bian's family is called Sun Keqing, and he knows the domineering of the Bian's family when he hears the name.
The customer is light, and the people who do business are customer-oriented, and the Bianjia family does business, focusing on the product and the customer is light.
In layman's terms, my products are good, do you like to buy them or not!
This Sun Keqing is not an ordinary person, to manage so many shops in the Bian's family, not only must be able to settle accounts, but also have extraordinary ability.
His ability may not be particularly outstanding in Lincheng, but there are few opponents in Lincheng.
There are not many two saint masters in the world, and there are even fewer who do not have to serve in the saint army under the emperor.
Although the shopkeeper Sun is powerful, in the Bian family, it is still the ancestors who have the final say.
No, as soon as the old ancestor summoned, the shopkeeper Sun immediately rushed over, sat down on the left hand side of the old ancestor, and did not ask, waiting for the old ancestor to speak.
The old ancestor is old, and there are more wrinkles on his face than on his clothes, but her words are still so clear, as if she has never been old, "Keqing, can you still take care of the business of the Southern Dynasty?" ”
Sun Ke was stunned for a moment, what the old ancestor asked today didn't seem to be right, the Southern Dynasty was under the care of the Bian family, especially after he Sun Keqing came, it can be described as well-organized, nothing big at all, can you take care of it? Do you still need to take care of it!
It's easy, it's simple, and it can be described in eight words.
But he didn't say anything, just nodded.
The ancestor said, "Since you can take care of it, let's open a few more branches." ”
She said it lightly, as if to say, pour a few more cups of tea.
Sun Ke was stunned for a moment, he took the tea that the maids had just brewed and said, "Ancestor, this branch, we have opened it wherever it should be." ”
The Bianjia has been in business for so many years, and there will still be spare space there in the Southern Dynasty.
The old ancestor took a sip of tea and suddenly asked, "What about the place that shouldn't be opened?" ”
These words were like winter thunder struck Sun Keqing's ears, where it shouldn't be opened, it naturally can't be opened, although the emperor didn't say it explicitly, it was just for other businessmen to make a show.
If it could be opened, the Bianjia would have opened a long time ago, why is it that today, the ancestor is abnormal, is this something earth-shattering?
But if something happened to the Bian's family, how could he, the shopkeeper, not know!
But he really didn't know, so he could only ask, "Hu Guo's words, what can the ancestor do?" ”
The old ancestor sat quietly, although her heart was also turbulent.
During the time when Sun Keqing hadn't arrived, she thought about it repeatedly, and finally paid attention.
She said, "Hu Guo's business naturally requires the hard work of the shopkeeper and the cooperation of the three princes of Hu Guo." ”
In the face of the most trusted shopkeeper, she did not hide her secrets.
She continued, "The envoy of the third prince is waiting in the side room, you will talk to him about the details later, and you will have to go to Tongguan to make sure that you go to Tongguan." ”
The so-called details are to open a few stores and open them there, which specifically refers to the revenue sharing between the two parties, and Sun Keqing understands these things.
What Sun Keqing didn't understand was why the old ancestor suddenly contacted the third prince of Hu State?
Of course, with the ability of the Bian family, it is also possible to get in touch with the prince of Hu State, and let the third prince help open the store, it will be easier, money, everyone likes to make money, the Bian family does not open a store, and the prince will have a lot less money.
However, the difficulty lies in how to explain to the emperor, it is impossible to hide the matter of the Bianjia store from the emperor of the Southern Dynasty, without the nod on the dragon chair, go to Hu to open a shop, isn't that looking for death?
He said, "Ancestor, how should I report the things in the palace?" ”
He didn't think that the old ancestor had already asked for an edict like the emperor, if that was the case, he would have known it a long time ago.
"The Imperial Palace!" The old ancestor smiled coldly, if it weren't for the pressure of the palace, their Bian family would have surpassed the Chen family and become the real richest man.
She picked up the golden silkworm robe and said, "There is a young master of the Bian's family who went to Tongguan, and he asked the third prince to come, this young master has a noble status, since he said it, we will do it, and I believe the palace will not blame." ”
Blame? When Li Changsheng returned to Xiangyang, how many masters were sent by the palace to intercept them at the Jiangling Ferry, but as a result, the Li family established themselves as kings in Xuchang, and took the country name as the hall, a dignified and upright hall, hey, the one in our palace didn't dare to want the young master of the Li family, isn't this clear enough?
"Young Master?" Li Ke listened even more confused, what young master, the young master of the Bian family, doesn't he enjoy the flowers in the courtyard?
The old ancestor smiled, she handed the clothes to Li Keqing and said, "This young master asked the third prince to send his clothes over, and said that it was the young master of the Bian family, since his golden mouth was opened, our Bian family is flattered, of course we can't spoil the good things of the young master." ”
Li Ke took a light look at the clothes, and his face suddenly changed greatly, "Li... Young Master of the Li Family. He didn't dare to call Li Changsheng's name directly, in the Southern Dynasty, except for the one in the palace, who dared to call this name.
He didn't think that this clothes were stolen by someone else, and if he wanted to steal clothes from Young Master Li, it would be more difficult than stealing a dragon robe from the palace!
"No, it's Young Master Bian." The old ancestor corrected his words, "I will go to the palace tomorrow, and the young master asked the third prince to bring a message, asking the Bian's family to go to Hu to open a store, I don't know what Your Majesty will do." ”
She said that she didn't know, but in her heart she was sure that what Li Changsheng wanted to do, His Majesty would definitely not object.
Li Ke touched the cold sweat on his forehead and nodded again and again, "The ancestor is wise!" ”
He also believed that His Majesty would not object, he knew about the Jiangling Ferry, the emperor dispatched almost all the masters in Lincheng, and as a result, the Jiangling Ferry left thirty-seven corpses of the Three Holy Masters and one of Zhan Song's arms.
All the Three Holy Masters of the Southern Dynasty added up to only more than a hundred, and this time it went to a quarter, such a loss has never happened in the history of the Southern Dynasty!
How can Your Majesty be embarrassed if such a person wants to do such a trivial matter.
At this time, in Li Keqing's heart, it has become such a trivial matter to let the Bian family go to Hu Country to open a store, if this is really a trivial matter, the Bian family will not have waited for hundreds of years!
But different people naturally have different strengths, and different strengths are different, and the size of things is of course different.
What some people can't accomplish in a lifetime may be something that others can't accomplish in a word, and Young Master Li is undoubtedly the most powerful person.
The matter of the Gangneung ferry is a top secret of the Southern Dynasty, and there will be no more than five people who know about it, except for the participants.
But the biggest loss at the Gangneung Ferry was not the thirty-seven corpses and Zhan Song's arms.
The biggest loss was the artifact streamer sword held in Zhan Song's hand, which was also lost with Zhan Song's arm!
This is the biggest loss in the emperor's mind, but no one else will know about such a loss, including the big shopkeeper of the Bian family.
Streamer sword, streamer without blood!
The matter of the Bianjia family, just because of a piece of clothing, was settled at this historic moment, and Bianliang, which is thousands of miles away, may not even dream of it.
