Domineering?

Mighty?

Arrogant?

I'm afraid that this is not enough to describe Guo Dan's casual action.

It can only be said that he has lived enough.

It's really enough to live.

Kou Yi was stunned.

This is a letter of appointment from the Fuji of Beizhen, not a waste of paper, and the people who went there never came out alive.

Squeak.

The back door opened, and I saw Kou Liansha walking in, and she glanced at Guo Dan: "You really don't know the depth, if people see it, you can bear it." ”

As she spoke, she retrieved the letter of appointment from the bamboo basket and carefully placed it on the table and unfolded it.

"It's not that the husband doesn't know the depths, but he ......." Guo Dan looked at Kou Yi and said with a serious expression: "As a housekeeper, you must have your own judgment, I have made this matter very clear yesterday, you should push it off directly, whether it is directly pushed off, or do Tai Chi, in short, don't you ask me what to do again." ”

"You can't blame the butler for this."

Kou Zhuansha said: "Husband, I don't think this matter is so simple. ”

Guo Dan looked at Kou Zhuansha suspiciously.

Kou Zhuansha said: "This appointment certificate was forced by Fifth Brother Chen to the housekeeper, and said that if your name is not written on it tomorrow, there will be consequences." ”

Kou Yi nodded aggrievedly.

Guo Dan said: "That means they are specifically targeting me?" ”

Kou Yi nodded again and again: "I think there is such a possibility, then Fifth Brother Chen is usually greedy for small gains, but this time he didn't take my money." ”

"But why is that?" Guo Dan wondered.

If you want to catch him, he can still understand, but if you want to say that he is forced to be a brocade guard, he really can't understand it.

Kou Zhuansha said: "Do you think it will be Your Majesty?" ”

"It's a possibility." Guo Dan nodded slightly, and said: "But it may also be that the East Factory Governor did it, but he doesn't have to do it, what's the point." ”

Kou Liansha nodded slightly, whether it was the emperor or Zhang Whale, it seemed that there was no need to do this, because it didn't make any sense, if they really wanted Guo Dan to do something, Guo Dan might not have the ability to resist, and couldn't help but say: "Could it be that Beizhen Fusi values your talents, so he wants to recruit you in." ”

"I don't know." Guo Dan also couldn't figure it out, and sighed: "So, this officialdom must not be entered, I haven't entered it yet, this fart is so annoying, if this really goes in, how can I come back, forget it, don't think about it, I won't agree to kill this thing anyway." ”

In fact, this matter is very simple, just want to repay the debt, but because the other party is the emperor, this matter has become so complicated, Wanli is not embarrassed to directly say that the debt, and he also plans to use Guo Dan for a long time, in addition, this matter cannot be known, Wanli cooperates with tooth merchants to do business, this has to make people grasp the handle, and those officials are estimated to wake up with laughter, which can be regarded as catching you.

Kou Liansha nodded lightly, if you go to be Jinyiwei, it is better to go to the household department to be an official, after all, Jinyiwei has a bad reputation, especially after being in the same stream as Dongchang.

Kou Yi said: "Uncle, but that's Jinyiwei, we're just a tooth merchant." ”

"You also know that we are just a small tooth merchant, they can pinch us to death if they stand up any time, but don't we sit here now, it proves that they dare not pinch us to death, we don't need to be afraid." Guo Dan smiled slightly, and said: "But butler, this has to test your skills, if I am caught by them, then I can't refuse, I can only talk to them." ”

Kou Yi panicked, "I... How do I talk to them? ”

If it is a businessman, then he naturally knows how to do it, the problem is that the other party is Jinyiwei, in case he gets him in, then just burn paper money for him.

Guo Dan now also understands Kou Yi's distress, so he said: "Don't be afraid, how you deal with those businessmen on weekdays, how to deal with them, if you really can't refuse, you can drag it first, saying that I have a lot of things to do recently, and I will talk about it after this period, in addition, you can also hint to them that I am busy with things, and it has something to do with Your Majesty." ”

Kou Yi nodded slightly, "Yes, I know what to do." ”

"You go out first, I still have something to talk to Madame."

After Kou Yi went out, Guo Dan said to Kou Liansha again: "Madam, today I went to the dock and went around, and found a problem, that is, today's cargo ships are too small to transport much goods, although it will not affect us at present, but it will definitely have a great impact in the future, and it can even be said that if this problem is not solved, the scale of 100,000 taels has come to an end." ”

Kou Zhuansha sighed softly: "This is also a matter of no way, the canal is mainly for supplying water transportation, and most of the grain, melons and fruits in our capital come from the south of the Yangtze River, so there are many restrictions on our merchants." ”

"Even if there is no restriction, there will not be much cargo to go." Guo Dan said depressedly.

Kou Zhuan Sha said, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Guo Dan said: "I want to go by sea." ”

Kou Liansha immediately said, "But no. ”

"I know there are pirates on the sea, and the waves are big, but I think they can be overcome."

Guo Dan's tone was very sure, because he would definitely be in line with the world in the future, so this sea transportation would have to go sooner or later, so it was better to start preparing now.

"But it's not that simple." Kou Zhuansha said with a solemn expression: "Husband, this is really a dead end, I'm afraid that if you just step on it, you will die without a place to be buried, and even Your Majesty can't protect you." ”

Guo Dan was shocked: "It's not so exaggerated. ”

Kou Liansha sighed softly: "Husband, you don't know, in fact, there have always been people who have suggested taking the sea by sea, but in the end it has not been successful, and the risks you said are only secondary reasons, the main reason is Cao Yun." ”

"Caoyun?"

"Hmm."

Kou Zhuansha nodded, and said: "This Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal bears seventy or eighty percent of my goods exchanges, and the benefits can be imagined, but it involves civil and military officials, princes and nobles, if you go by sea, it will hurt their interests, can they make you feel better?" ”

"I see."

As soon as she said this, Guo Dan immediately understood, although he didn't understand the system of the Ming Dynasty, he could still calculate the benefits clearly.

However, the water was much deeper than he had imagined, but it was not that little interest that could be clearly explained.

Although the risk of shipping is high, but the consumption of water transportation is large, and it is difficult to reduce the loss of transportation, and the potential of shipping is unlimited, coupled with the shipbuilding technology of the Ming Dynasty is rising by leaps and bounds, in fact, it can be overcome, as for the Japanese Invaders, if you do not take the sea by sea, you will never be able to eliminate the Japanese Invaders, because the interests are not here, and they will not be fully exterminated.

This is not the same thing as an art exhibition, the art exhibition is only about moral issues, and has nothing to do with interests, as long as it can be rounded back, but Cao Yun is the core interest of the entire ruling class, and even the people are closely related, anyone who touches it will die, even the emperor does not dare to touch this red line, of course, from the perspective of the emperor's interests, Cao Yun can be completely controlled, but it is difficult to control by sea.

But then again, since the interests are so complicated, Guo Dan wants to control Cao Yun, it is a fantasy, and the only way can only be to avoid Cao Yun.

That is, sea freight will be his only option.

Kou Zhuansha saw that Guo Dan was silent, but she was so worried that she said, "Husband, this luck is really untouchable!" ”

Guo Dan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Madam, please rest assured, I haven't lived enough, I won't want to die so early, just be smaller, let's make a few more trips." ”

Kou Zhuan Sha breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

......

On the second day, Chen Xusheng came to Mashi Street again and found Kou Yi, this time he didn't have a smiling face for Kou Yi, from the time he saw Kou Yi, he had a gloomy face.

It turned out that Dong Ping, the envoy of the town that day, directly ordered him to go down after receiving the order, and he couldn't say that it was ordered by the emperor, so no one below wanted to do this work, what is this, the dignified Beizhen Fusi actually wanted to take the initiative to recruit a tooth merchant, and he really couldn't afford to lose this person.

That's why he chose Chen Xusheng, who knew Kou Yi, to do this, and the reason why Chen Xusheng agreed was because he thought he would make some money from it, but he knew that it was complicated and he was taught a lesson from above, but it really outweighed the loss.

When he heard Kou Yi's refusal, he couldn't help but slap the table angrily, Huo Ran got up, pointed at Kou Yi and said: "Kou Yi, don't be embarrassed, our Beizhen Fusi has taken a fancy to your uncle, that is the blessing of your uncle's tenth generation, and you don't pee and take care of yourself, but you are just a small tooth merchant, what is the big deal." ”

Kou Yi hurriedly nodded and responded: "The fifth brother is right, my aunt is just a small tooth businessman, and he is also a son-in-law, and his knowledge is not high, just a child, and he has made a lot of jokes before. ”

"You ......."

Chen Xusheng gritted his teeth, his face turned purple, when he mentioned Liu Chengbian, it was actually because he knew the contradiction between the two families of Liu Kou, and deliberately used it to take advantage, who knew that now Kou Yi would use this as an excuse, and said angrily: "Okay, well, since you don't look down on our Beizhen Fusi, then I won't force you and leave." ”

"Fifth brother, walk slowly." Kou Yi is like being pardoned.

As soon as Chen Xusheng walked to the door, he folded back and stretched out his hand: "Letter of appointment." ”

"Oh, here, here."

Kou Yi hurriedly took out a piece of Zou Baba's paper, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, this appointment certificate is so precious, I have always put it on my body, and I don't dare to put it elsewhere when I sleep, but I accidentally get it... Crumpled. ”

It's not good to lie to anyone, to lie to Jinyiwei.

Chen Xusheng looked at it, how could he not understand, his nose was crooked, he took the appointment certificate, and left angrily.

When he got out of the tea shop, he immediately went back to the alley on the side.

"How?"

When the man with the goatee saw Chen Xu coming, he immediately asked.

"Head, I'm ......."

"You can't even do this little thing?"

"Head, you can't blame me for this, that guy didn't take us seriously at all, and tried to find some lame reason to perfunctory us. Look, he's made our appointments. ”

Chen Xusheng took out the crumpled letter of appointment and handed it to the older man.

The man couldn't help frowning, and said, "It's really unreasonable." ”

Chen Xusheng said angrily: "It's really that guy is protected by His Majesty's guards, otherwise, I would have planned to kidnap him yesterday, I want to see if he has three heads and six arms, and he dares to be arrogant in front of our brocade guards." ”

"No."

The man hurriedly said, "If I can use force, then I can still do it." ”

Chen Xusheng said: "Even if you don't use force, then you have to meet him, but I have been observing today, that guy didn't go out at all, but their housekeeper lied to me that he went out early in the morning, he always avoided it, so I can't help it." ”

The man groaned a little and said, "Let's go back first." ”

......

Imperial.

"Father-in-law!"

"Done?"

Li Gui came down from the steps and asked Dong Ping.

Dong Ping sneered: "I have already instructed my subordinates to do it, but the other party seems to be unwilling. ”

Li Gui had already expected it, and said, "That's all you have to do?" ”

Dong Ping was embarrassed: "Father-in-law, I really can't complain about us, Guo Dan has always been protected by His Majesty's guards, and he is hiding from us, and we can't use the means!" ”

Li Gui pondered a little and said, "Then what do you want?" ”

Dong Ping said: "At least give us a chance to meet him." ”

"You wait a minute."

Li Gui went up the steps and entered the hall, and after a while, he walked out and said, "Okay, we will arrange this, but you have to remember that you must not hurt him, you know?" ”

"Father-in-law, don't worry, I have arranged for the kindest team of our Beizhen Fusi to do this."

Dong Ping said, and said curiously: "Father-in-law, that Guo Dan is just a small tooth merchant, why does Your Majesty want to waste such a big ......" ”

Li Guidao: "This is not what you asked. ”

"Yes."

Dong Ping smiled awkwardly.

Li Gui advised again: "Remember, you can't let anyone know about this. ”

......

And over there, Guo Dan had already forgotten about it, and he really didn't have the time to think about it, he not only had to be busy with the affairs of going to Jiangnan, but also had to plan the reorganization of the tooth shop.

Although the shareholding contract has been signed, the privatization into public ownership is not something that can be completed in a while, but fortunately, with the help of Kou Zhuansha, he does not have to worry about the contract charter and internal transformation, he is basically responsible for external affairs.

This morning, Guo Dan was going to go out to Wutiao Gun to see how the album of Qixi Online Love was prepared.

"Huh? When will you get the class? ”

When he went out, Guo Dan suddenly found several unfamiliar faces.

One of them hugged his fists and said: "If you go back to Guo Gongzi, we were changed for class last night." ”

Guo Dan nodded, then got into the carriage and said, "Go to the five guns." ”

After a meal, Guo Dan suddenly found that this was not the old way, so he asked, "Where is this going?" ”

"Guo Gongzi doesn't know, the road is closed today, so he can only go this way."

"Road closures? Why are the roads closed? ”

"We don't know the specifics."

Guo Dan nodded slightly, but he didn't think much about it, this is the emperor's guard, his professionalism is very good, he took a step back and said, people want to harm him, he may not be able to run, I thought that it must be a big man who wants to go shopping. So he closed his eyes and thought again.

Suddenly, his body jerked violently, as if he had gone up a step.

"What's going on?"

Guo Dan said subconsciously.

But to his astonishment, there was no answer outside, and he hurriedly lifted the curtain, and found that the light around him was very dim, and when he looked closely, it turned out that he was now in a large wooden shed, and the two guards were nowhere to be seen, not even the groom.

I heard a clicking sound behind me, like the door was about to close.

I'll go! Guo Dan hurriedly got out of the carriage and saw the gate closed from the outside.

When I was shocked, I suddenly heard a sneer: "Guo Tongsheng, I want to see you, but it's really not easy!" ”

Guo Dan turned his head and saw a young man walking out with an iron chain, his heart shook and he said in a trembling voice: "You... Who are you? ”

He was most afraid of that.

"I'm the fifth brother of Jinyiwei."
