Chapter 66 Respect Luo Yi First and Respect People Later
"Brother Qiang, if you say a price, my brother will recognize it for 58,000, so I will treat it as my brother's apology for you today."
Wang Shouzhong did not take the prescription immediately, but said seriously.
Don't say 80,000, even if it's 50,000 taels of silver, what is the concept?
You can buy almost 10,000 head of cattle!!
Jia Qiang waved her hand and said, "It's an unintentional gain, where do you want such a high price?" Besides, don't hide it from Brother Wang, I not only found out the blue formula, but also yellow, purple, blue, white, green, gray, and several other colors. Brother Wang and I are like-minded, so there is no need to talk about money or not. ”
In fact, there are dozens of happy households from the teaching department, and according to the normal price, it is almost this number.
The relatives of the high-ranking officials and eunuchs would not be much cheaper than the Qinglou Oiran.
It's just that the musicians of the Teaching Workshop Division can't be bought with money at all.
Of course, if you have the right, you don't have to spend so much to buy......
Wang Shouzhong blinked, looked at Jia Qiang and said, "Brother Qiang, do you know how much silver this recipe is worth?" ”
Jia Qiang said with a smile: "In fact, the blue of the Hang Seng is the first in the world, and having this recipe is just the icing on the cake, and I don't care about anything, so it is not too valuable." ”
When Wang Shouzhong heard this, his eyes lit up again, as if he had re-acquainted Jia Qiang, and after taking a sip of wine, he praised and said, "Happy!" I didn't expect Brother Qiang to live so transparently when he was not very old! ”
But then he said to Jia Qiang and Feng Ziying: "Brother Qiang'er is only half right, in fact, in the cloth business, dyeing cloth is of course the original foundation, but there is only a formula, no matter how good the recipe is, it is not very useful." For example, my Hengsheng number, can do today, the good cloth dyeing is only one aspect, more importantly, my Wang family Langya is famous, and the officials up and down in Dayan all think that the Wang family is a scholar, not a businessman, and will not be easily bullied. But even so, the amount of money that my Wang family spends on dotting every year is countless.
To tell the truth, over the years, the silver spent by the Hang Seng has been piled up to create a mountain of gold and a sea of silver! With silver, coupled with the name of my Langya Wang, the relationship between the provinces was finally smoothed.
This is the foundation for the Wang family to become the Eight Great Cloth Shops of Dayan. There is only a recipe, it doesn't matter, it doesn't work at all! This is also where the confidence of my negotiation with Brother Qiang lies in the past, but is this recipe worthless? No. It depends on whose hands it falls into, and it falls into the hands of the right person, and it is worth at least 100,000 gold!! ”
Feng Ziying laughed and said: "I understand, Brother Meng Jian, your Hengsheng Wang family and Dongsheng Zhao family have been old rivals for decades, if this recipe falls into their hands, wouldn't it be bad?" The Zhao family is afraid that they will bleed the book, so they came to buy Brother Qiang's recipe, right? ”
Wang Shouzhong smiled bitterly: "That's right! When everyone's background and feet are about the same, the comparison is the quality of the cloth. If he hadn't been worried about this, Old Shopkeeper Zhou wouldn't have been so confused. It's not that he is reluctant to give silver, but he can't let go of the Hang Seng at all, there are people who have a better recipe in their hands than the Hang Seng number's blue dyed square. Because once this recipe falls into the hands of the Dongsheng Zhao family, or the other eight major cloth numbers, it will be a catastrophe for my Hengsheng number!
So Brother Qiang, if you want to give Fang Zibai to me, you have given me a lot of silver. ”
Seeing that Wang Shouzhong could talk about this, Jia Qiang thought for a while and said, "I don't deny that I am interested in money, after all, in this world, it is difficult to move an inch without money." But this silver, you don't have to get it from Brother Wang, you get it from the Dongsheng Zhao family, isn't it different? There is a Hang Seng daughter buying horse bones in front, and after the news is released, people who want to buy the little brother's prescription are afraid that there will be more than one, and when the time comes, I will not be short of silver anymore. ”
When Wang Shouzhong heard this, he glanced at Jia Qiang deeply and praised: "Good brother, you are more refined than my eldest brother!" ”
Gainjaqiang's words blocked Wang Shouzhong's way to ask for a prescription against Dongsheng.
Jia Qiang can't be blamed for not being righteous, it's just that he can't put himself in the position of the sworn enemy of the Dongsheng Zhao family for the sake of righteousness.
That's not righteous, that's irrational.
In addition, Jia Qiang also wanted Wang Shouzhong to cooperate and make a big advertisement for him......
Feng Ziying watched it funny from the sidelines, this brother took a step back first, looking generous and tolerant, but in fact, he not only abolished the old shopkeeper Zhou, but also made the Wang family fall into a big favor......
Jia Qiang smiled and said calmly: "Originally, I was supposed to give the recipe that Dongsheng needed to Brother Wang, but the Zhao family can be the opponent of the Langya Wang family for decades, and the foundation is so hard that the younger brother really can't afford it, and I hope that Brother Wang will understand." Moreover, Dongsheng got my prescription, in fact, it didn't have much benefit, and it cost a lot of money, which can be regarded as my breath of relief for Brother Wang. ”
Wang Shouzhong laughed and said, "I understand more and more, how can a person like Chaozong like you like you so much." Good! Good! Brother Qiang really lives up to her reputation! ”
Feng Ziying said with a smile: "When I saw Brother Qiang last month, I immediately noticed that he was different from before, and his spirit and spirit had completely changed. Looking at it now, it is indeed reborn. Even the Emperor Taishang said that he liked him, who could not like him? ”
Wang Shouzhong looked at Jia Qiang and said with a smile: "The words you said in the Drunken Immortal Building have not been widely spread, because there was a scolding in the clear stream. is the founding hero and the Yuanping hero, and there are few people who like it. ”
Feng Ziying said with a smile: "Because Brother Qiang, you praise the Emperor Taishang, but it is said that his old man's credit is higher than that of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Shizu." Hey, no one would dare to go along with you. But if the emperor likes you, it's enough. ”
Jia Qiang was full of emotion, shook her head and said, "Who would have thought that the Emperor Taishang would be next door that day?" I just went to the Drunken Immortal Building to learn the scriptures, to see how they repaired the restaurant, the two elders complained that the world was not good, I taught a few lessons, but I didn't expect ......"
After Wang Shouzhong and Feng Ziying glanced at each other, they all smiled and said, "If you do it on purpose, how can you escape the Heavenly Eyes of the Emperor Taishang?" Afterwards, I don't know how many people have checked the events of the day, involving people, countless times. But if there is the slightest flaw, it is a matter of personal life. ”
However, Feng Ziying still regretted it: "I know that Brother Qiang is interested in fame and officialdom, but unfortunately, the Holy Family of the Emperor Taishang may not be able to help you." ”
The kind of saint that the scholar wants is the kind of person who wants to be trusted by the Son of Heaven and obey his words, but also to keep a distance from the Son of Heaven to show his innocence. It is best to spray the Son of Heaven from time to time and the Son of Heaven does not blame him, and praises him for earning ministers, that is a serious saint.
Like Jia Qiang, who gains by slapping horses and flattering words, he is as disgusted as stinky shit in the clear stream......
Jia Qiang is not an official, that's nothing, just a bedbug slipping by the edge of the officialdom.
But if Jia Qiang wants to enter the officialdom, it will definitely be the object of everyone's ridicule, and it will be difficult to move an inch.
Jia Qiang smiled lightly and said: "The Son of Heaven admires frugality, this is the moral benchmark set by civil officials for the Heavenly Family for thousands of years, and diligence and thrift are also the most basic criteria to measure whether an emperor is a Ming monarch. When I said that, I naturally stepped on their tails, how could I not be spit on by everyone? This is still the Taishang Emperor Dragon's health, so no one dares to attack me in groups, otherwise, I am afraid that I am already a street rat at the moment, and everyone shouts and beats. ”
Wang Shouzhong asked, "Then Brother Qiang, do you still think like that?" ”
Jia Qiang did not answer directly, but said: "The Emperor Taishang has another great achievement, that is, to improve the status of merchants, so that merchants are no longer cheap. After Emperor Taishang ascended the throne, he greatly promoted commerce, and it was also relying on commerce that Dayan was able to pass the most difficult hurdle at the beginning, and the people did not starve to death on a large scale.
And the reason why Shilin didn't admit this, even if most of them were old ministers of Jingchu and served the emperor as a holy monarch, they always resisted these policies, because the promotion of the status of merchants violated the interests of the gentry. ”
Feng Ziying said softly: "Brother Qiang, you may not know that those who have lost their official hats and heads over the years are all heroes who helped the Emperor Taishang to prosper in business in the early years of Jing. You must never mention these words to anyone again. I am afraid that the limelight of this dynasty is about to change. ”
When Jia Qiang heard this, she lowered her eyes and said, "Yes, the limelight seems to be changing." After all, the imperial court has already passed the most difficult days, and it is naturally impossible to give Shang Jia such a high status. So, what's the use of making more money? ”
As if feeling that the atmosphere was too heavy, Wang Shouzhong patted Jia Qiang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I still have to make more money, don't worry, I have Dongsheng's eyeliner in my store, and what happened in the Hang Seng today will soon reach the ears of the Zhao family." In three days at most, someone from the Zhao family will visit you. At that time, you must not be polite, without 30,000 taels of silver, this recipe will never be handed over. ”
Feng Ziying also nodded and said: "Thirty thousand taels is just right, if you suffer less, it's too much, I'm afraid that the Zhao family will treat you as a mortal enemy, it's not that I'm afraid of them, it's just that it's not necessary." ”
As she spoke, Feng Ziying glanced at the two of them who were still busy not far away, and suddenly smiled: "Brother Qiang, do you know where your danger today comes from?" ”
Seeing Jia Qiang shaking her head, Feng Ziying pointed to the two of them and said: "You have a good temperament, it doesn't matter if you wear a muslin robe, but you two are long-lasting, wearing coarse cloth gowns, and you can't hide the reckless atmosphere of the rivers and lakes. Brother Qiang, you should understand the truth of 'respecting Luo Yi first and then respecting people'. It is said that in the capital of God, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, is the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. But for the Wang family, there is no family in the family of people who need their respect. Oh yes, there's one more. ”
Jia Qiang and Wang Shouzhong glanced at each other, and they both shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Respect Luo Yi first, then respect people, alas.
