195 Turkic Emissary (Happy Winter Solstice)
Lu Ting just went to the Qin Wangfu to take a look and left quickly.
The atmosphere is not very good, the people in the Qin Palace's mansion don't have many smiling faces, after Fang Xuanling was transferred, the prince's faction put forward the agenda in the court to bite the gold and return to his original post, that is, to serve as the assassin of Connecticut.
The people of the Qin Wangfu argued with reason, and there was a lot of quarrel in the court, and there was no conclusion until the dispersal of the dynasty, and Li Yuan ordered that the court would discuss it again tomorrow morning.
said that it would be discussed tomorrow, everyone in the Qin Palace's mansion knew that there was not much suspense about Cheng Biting Jin's return to Kangzhou, and everyone in the palace was bought by the prince, and the harem headed by Concubine Yin Defei and Zhang Jieyu was also one-sided to the prince, after Li Yuan returned to the palace, the people around him were all saying good things about the prince, and the pillow wind they heard was all biased towards the prince, and with Li Yuan's indecisive character, he would soon be convinced.
Fang Xuanling's transfer from Chang'an was like this, at the beginning it was evenly matched, even Li Yuan couldn't make up his mind, went back to sleep, and his attitude became resolute.
Now that the gods are fighting, Lu Ting knows that he can't help, so he simply goes out of the city and concentrates on his own business.
When Xia Weitang is done, there are more resources in his hands, and his role will be greater.
It's a pity that I still want to ask Xiaoqiao to help me find the builder who claims to only be a boutique residence, so that the cousin will be disrupted, and I will find a chance to say it next time.
The woman named Zheng Zihan was too proactive, she flattered herself as soon as she met, and took the initiative to ask to enter the door, but she scared herself away.
The person has survived well, but unfortunately it is a thorny rose, and the little girl is still staring at it.
I'm afraid that I didn't get it here, and the one that came to my mouth ran away again, and the two ends didn't reach the shore, Lu Ting didn't do such a stupid thing.
When I returned to the camp, I just wanted to enter the winery to think about the increase in production, but was pulled by Zhang Heng: "Brother Lu, slow down, I want a few jars of wine." ”
Only Lu Ting can enter the wine shop, and for the sake of secrecy, even Zhang Heng can't enter.
"No problem, I'll have someone send it to Brother Zhang in a while." After Lu Ting finished speaking, he said with concern: "Boss Zhang, drinking too much is a piece of intestines, and drinking too much hurts your body, so you have to take it easy." ”
Xia wine has not been launched yet, mainly because of the production problem, the output is not high, but it is no problem for your own people to have a few drinks, like Zhang Heng and Ren Zhenhai, they are sent to them every three or five times, it is regarded as a welfare, and a jar was sent to Zhang Heng yesterday, but I didn't expect him to open his mouth so quickly.
Zhang Heng is steady, responsible, and hard-working, it is rare for him to take the initiative to open his mouth, and Lu Ting will definitely satisfy him.
"Fei Ye, Fei Ye" Zhang Heng looked left and right, no outsiders were there, so he lowered his voice and said, "I am going to give this wine to Yang Menlang."
"Yang Menlang? Yang Zheng? ”
Zhang Heng nodded and said, "That's right, it's him, Brother Lu, do you remember this person?" ”
Lu Ting said with a wry smile: "Can't you remember him, it's this person who makes things difficult for us, if Xue Wanche hadn't appeared in time, the water convoy would have been miserable." ”
Although he was not escorted in person, but when he heard about it afterwards, Lu Ting was still afraid for a while, he didn't expect the people in the Prince's Mansion to be so sensitive, even the old, weak, sick and disabled in Wuyitang were so vigilant, and one party was a little unrestrained that day, and Qixiamen would definitely be bleeding.
The soldiers and horses guarding the city gate are no worse than Wu Hou and Jin Wuwei.
"Yes" Zhang Hengxin said with palpitations: "I was impulsive that day, fortunately nothing happened, but after this incident, there was a brother who was born and died together in the past, just transferred to Jin Wuwei, and Yang Zheng had a good relationship. ”
"Yang Zheng is the city gate of Qixiamen, the official is not big, but the position is extremely important, and he has a good relationship, it will not be a bad thing, maybe there will be a place to ask him one day, now I just met, send gold, silver and jewelry a little too much, I inquired, he is not greedy for money and does not love sex, he likes to drink a few sips, he used to drink two bowls before going to war, it is estimated that it was a small problem left at that time, such a mellow and strong wine like Xia wine is his favorite, so just..."
It turned out that this was the case, Lu Ting said without hesitation: "This is a good thing, I support it, take as much wine as you want, it's chivalrous." ”
It is definitely not a bad thing to befriend a city gatekeeper who guards the gateway to the capital.
Zhang Heng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Great, Brother Lu, with Xia Jiu, you will definitely take that Yang Zheng, by the way, do you want to inform the president of Sun Gongzi about this?" ”
When looking for Lu Ting to ask for wine, Zhang Heng was a little apprehensive, I don't know how much wine there is, and I don't know what price this wine sells, even if it is sold cheaply, with his own monthly money, it can't be supplied much, and when he heard Lu Ting say that the wine entered the account of Xia Weitang, he was very relieved, but he soon hesitated.
The members of Xia Wei Tang, Xia Wei Tang accounts for 30 percent, Lu Ting accounts for 2 percent of 5, Changsun Chong, Cheng Chuliang, Du He and Hou Mingyuan each account for 10 percent, and the remaining half of them are kept for backup, and I know this matter with Lu Ting, and I don't know what Changsun Chong thinks.
Lu Ting said confidently: "No, I said it before it was established, Xia Weitang is under my care, they only have the right to dividends, if you don't agree, you can withdraw at any time and leave." ”
Zhang Heng smiled, nodded and said, "Brother Lu, with your words, I am relieved." ”
Quitting and leaving? Don't be funny, it's developing so well now, I don't know how many people want to mix shares.
"By the way, Boss Zhang, how is the matter of Liang Shiquan now?"
Zhang Heng has always been in charge of the matter of mountain spring water, and Lu Ting rarely asked, but now he is just asking.
As soon as he talked about Liangshiquan, Zhang Heng came to the spirit, and said with great interest: "It's good, there are more and more people who want water, and now there are forty-six water trucks, which are still in short supply, or Brother Lu is very harmful, and many new guests say that they have seen Liangshiquan and are a little sweet before trying." ”
After a pause, Zhang Heng continued: "Brother Lu, it's too much of a loss to send water for free, you can almost try to collect some money." ”
"Collect money? Is the time now? Lu Ting asked casually.
Zhang Heng nodded and said: "Many guests feel embarrassed, and take the initiative to let those old brothers collect money, some will take some food as gifts, and some will generously return the reward, as long as the price is not high, I believe that a group of guests will support." ”
"Bounty? Confiscation, right? Lu Ting asked with a serious face.
"No, don't accept it, at most taste the guest's homemade dim sum, this is emphasized every day, whoever dares to collect money without authorization, even if it is a penny, will be expelled immediately."
Lu Ting was relieved: "This can't be relaxed, if you start this way, the quality of service will change, and the relationship with guests will become delicate, you can't lose a big one because of a small one, what is the biggest problem of the water transport team now?" ”
Some guests give rewards, naturally be more enthusiastic, those who do not give rewards, do not deserve such warm service;
The guest gave the reward today, and there was an expectation in his heart, if he didn't give it tomorrow, would it make each other embarrassed?
Lu Ting thought of these early on, stipulating that no one could receive money in any name, including rewards.
Zhang Heng thought for a while, and quickly said: "The biggest problem now is that there are many guests, there are few water trucks, and some old brothers send water to Xiangwu before sending it." ”
"Sent to Xiangwu? A cart of water can't divide a few guests, right? Lu Ting said with a frown.
"The main thing is that it is a little far away, like Duan Xiaoliu, there are guests in Changle Fang, and there are guests in Yongle Fang, tossing back and forth, which takes a lot of time."
Lu Ting said in surprise: "Why is it so far away, doesn't it mean that one is responsible for a piece of land?" ”
From Changle Fang to Yongle Fang, there are several squares across it.
Zhang Heng said with a wry smile: "Brother Lu, maybe you don't know, the most prosperous side of Chang'an is the area around the East City and the West City, and the rest of the fangs are not popular, and the brothers of the water delivery team all want to find guests in these places, because the guests who live in good places are obviously more particular, they are all brothers who eat in a pot, and they can't be biased. ”
"In order to urge them to work harder, there was also a competition, and everyone was looking for guests in the bustling square, so that... It's messed up. ”
Zhang Heng's meaning Lu Ting understands that there are good and bad locations, and everyone wants to occupy the best place for development, so it is a bit chaotic.
Lu Ting thought about it, and quickly shook his head and said: "No, it's too messy, it's time-consuming and laborious, not to mention, it's easy to have internal contradictions, and it's not good to get your own people to fight, Boss Zhang, whether you forcibly divide or draw lots, you must divide the place well, each person is responsible for a region, no one can cross the district, release more people in a good place, it doesn't matter if you put two or three people in a square, if you don't have a good place, release fewer people, one person is responsible for one or two squares or something, you can't let them toss anymore." ”
If one is in the south of the city and the other is in the north of the city, it won't tire people to death by sending a bucket of water?
"Understood, Brother Lu" Zhang Heng thought for a moment and continued to ask: "Brother Lu, what about collecting money?" ”
Dozens of people, dozens of horses, people eat horses every day, and the cost is getting bigger and bigger, but the water is delivered for free, which is also too much of a loss.
Jinshan Yinhai is not enough to squander like this, although this money is chivalrous, but part of that money is undressed.
"There's no hurry, wait until mid-March." Lu Ting only thought for a moment and quickly replied.
Habits are cultivated, and they are not efficient at the beginning, and they are not in a hurry to collect money.
It's still a practice, and then reap the goodwill of first-class guests.
"Understood, it's all up to Brother Lu." When Zhang Heng heard this, he didn't have any opinions, and immediately agreed.
For Lu Ting, Zhang Heng is convinced, as if nothing is difficult for him, he used to say that he sold water, but no one was optimistic, even Zhang Heng himself was not optimistic, the water that can be seen everywhere, and some people will spend money to buy it?
With the news from the water delivery team, Zhang Heng began to believe that selling water could indeed make money, and he admired Lu Ting more and more.
Now go to a teahouse casually, if Dr. Tea doesn't say that the tea is boiled in a good stone spring, it is estimated that the guests will leave a little half.
In a word, he is not as shrewd as Lu Ting, anyway, it is right to listen to him.
Pingkangfang, Wanhualou, Yimeng Pavilion.
The original simple pavilion was renovated, and all the broken, damaged, and cheap household goods were removed, and the exquisite mahogany household goods were replaced, and the embroidered piers were all replaced with silk ones, which were the sandalwood that was ordered indoors, and it was also the best sandalwood.
Yimeng girl is becoming more and more popular, the money for playing tea around has risen and rising, but it can't stop the enthusiasm of those guests, in the past, it was not some small businessmen, or poor students who didn't have a lot of money in their pockets, but now it's different, many dignitaries and nobles also come to Yimeng to cheer.
Most of the goals are the same, to see what kind of face this Oiran favored by Lu Ting, the first genius of the Tang Dynasty, is, and will let Lu Ting write a peerless poem for her, "The spring breeze is ten miles of Pingkang Road, and it is not as good as rolling up the bead curtain".
The status of the first Oiran in Pingkangfang is proper.
The people who can sit in the Yimeng Pavilion are definitely people with status.
Mother Chen muttered in her heart, today is definitely not a good day, the reason is very simple, there are guests making trouble, and the place of trouble is still Yimeng Pavilion.
To be able to open a Qinglou in Pingkangfang, there are big people and big forces behind it, ordinary people don't dare to make trouble, most of the people with identity know each other and give each other face, few people make trouble in the Qinglou, but there is a group of people who don't listen to persuasion and want to make trouble.
With a "bang", a bearded streamer slammed on the board and shouted, "Miss Yimeng, why haven't you come out to meet people?" ”
"It's just that a little Qinglou woman actually made our General Qibi Qiaotai wait, it's too rude."
"Exactly, General Qibi Qiaotai is the eagle of our Turks, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty has to give three points of face."
"Don't pass it on yet, believe it or not, we set fire to this place."
A group of people looking at each other in a foreign land were arguing and scolding in Yimeng Pavilion, and Chen's mother was about to cry, so she hurriedly said to the familiar middle-aged man on the side: "Cui Shaoqing, this... What should I do, you can persuade it. ”
The group of people who came were too barbaric, they all said that Yimeng was changing clothes, but they just didn't listen, they waited for a while and didn't see anyone, and they slapped the case and kicked the embroidery pier, and some people took out a scimitar to cut off a corner of the mahogany family, which scared Chen's mother and cried, and hurriedly Cui Yong asked for help.
Cui Yong is the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, and he also came with the gang of brutal Turks.
Chen's mother felt very aggrieved, her daughter Yimeng had finished playing today's tea circle and went back to rest, but suddenly this group of rude people came, shouting that they wanted to see the first Oiran of Pingkangfang, it didn't matter if they couldn't sleep, it was okay to play tea around, and they were slapped just when they wanted to explain.
Seeing that Cui Shaoqing, who was accompanied, did not speak, Chen's mother admitted it, and immediately asked people to persuade Yimeng to prepare, just come later, these people seem to be demolishing this place.
Cui Shaoqing said with a wry smile: "Mother Chen, these distinguished guests are warriors from the Turkic Covenant Department, the prince has an order, and he must satisfy the distinguished guests, not to mention reporting to the martial arts waiting shop, even if Jing Zhaoyin comes, it is useless, let Miss Yimeng hurry up, rest assured, they are just looking for a tea circle, and they will not embarrass Miss Yimeng." ”
The Tang Dynasty has been fighting with the Turks for so many years, winning less and losing more, last time they all fought to Wulongpi, if it wasn't for the King of Qin himself, it is estimated that the trouble would be fierce, these envoys from the Chebi Department are arrogant, Cui Yong can't help it, who let them win the battle.
They came to Datang, saying that it was to negotiate and settle the recent disputes between the two sides on the border, but in fact they were asking for benefits, and the prince had ordered that they must be entertained.
In a word, don't make too much trouble, turn a blind eye.
