Chapter 19: Eight Hundred Miles Urgent

Some things are tacitly and speculating with each other, just like playing cards, no matter how bad the cards are, as long as the potential is created, there may be a glimmer of life.

Zhen Feng laughed and asked very happily, "I don't know how much the bid is on the contract?" It's good to think about whether you can buy a linen cloth or jacquard Luo to make clothes. ”

"The eldest prince is really good at laughing, seven hundred is not a small amount, enough to make some clothes for everyone."

It seems that Liu's mother knows a lot about the restaurant's previous investment and debts, so she is stuck on the bottom line, so that the Zhen family can lose less but get out, and she will pay less and take what she needs. It might have been a good idea before yesterday, but after last night, everything changed.

"Mother Liu, I'm really tempted, but you don't know, for the secret recipe of yesterday's wine, I have pledged all the restaurants out, even with a life guarantee. Now it is difficult to ride a tiger up and down this Wangjiang Tower, and it is a trivial matter for the restaurant to change its owner, but it will still kill people. ”

Mother Liu is not a master who is easy to fool, she heard it at once, what kind of life guarantee is the other party's excuse, in the final analysis, she is unwilling to sell this restaurant, if the price is negotiated, even if it is a thousand or two thousand, as long as you are willing to negotiate, there is hope. But this acquisition, the most important thing is to come to this sensational wine, without the secret recipe, who wants to buy a restaurant with only a bunch of debts?

"Eldest prince, you better think about it again, the guarantee of the wine recipe can be fully undertaken by my Huajian Building."

"Mother Liu, you are really a step late, you signed a death contract with someone below, if you can transfer, you naturally can't ask for it."

"That's it, since that's the case, then let's take a look at it, one day the eldest prince turns the death deed into a living deed, and you can come to Huajian Building to find a concubine."

Even the threat was said so elegantly, I didn't know that I thought it was throwing an olive branch, but in fact she was saying: Boy, you wait for the old lady, the old lady can't eat it, you don't want to eat it, wash and scrub and wait to come to the old lady to beg for mercy.

After sending Liu's mother away, Zhen Feng began to train Zhantang on the operation methods and skills of distilled spirits. When he went out with the smell of alcohol, he saw the depressed aunt Wu.

"Auntie, what's going on?"

Wu looked at Zhen Feng, sighed deeply, shook his head and said, "I went to all the places where I could hire people, but I couldn't hire people, and I couldn't even buy servants." ”

"Is it because there is no suitable person to hire or buy and sell recently?"

"That's what I thought at first. Later, I found out that the tooth line and others were greeted by people, and they were not allowed to provide people to our Wangjiang Building, whether it was buying or selling, or hiring, if they found that someone was in private convenience, they would be in trouble, and they might also have a lawsuit. ”

Zhen Feng thought about it and laughed, Huajian Lou's movements are really fast, it is worthy of the first floor of Qinhuai River, and his connections and strength are first-class. If the business is not benevolent, it is not there, and it wants to block Wangjiang Tower, strangle it in the cradle, and the soft ones will not come to the hard ones, and the source of hired workers will be cut off and the manpower sanctions will be just a warning, but if this matter cannot be handled well, it is better to directly surrender and sell Wangjiang Tower. He comforted Wu and said, "Auntie, it's okay, if you don't look for it from the market, we won't force it." ”

"But we have too few people."

"Don't worry, just leave this matter to the second brother, third brother and third sister. I don't believe that the Flower Room Building can still be pervasive. ”

"Brother Shuang, Brother Bang and Sister Ling? How can they be so young? Why don't you go again? ”

"Auntie, you just have to settle down, they really have to come here for this matter. You hurry up and get ready, it's a lot of work to cook. ”

As soon as he heard this, Wu temporarily let go of the knot of looking for someone. Maybe Zhen Feng really has a way.

Zhen Feng found the three younger brothers and sisters and explained them carefully, and the three children were elated after hearing this, nodding heavily to ensure that the task was completed.

Later, he only knew from other people's mouths, why there are so many green buildings on the banks of the Qinhuai River, and the one who came directly to the door was the leading Huajian Building, and it turned out that he stepped into the Huajian real estate, yesterday Xu You, Chen Qiao, Xu Kai and most of the drunken gentlemen made an appointment with Huajian Building, and all of them missed the appointment for no reason. However, after seeing the commercial value of Wangjiang Tower, Liu's mother planned to swallow the fledgling Wangjiang Tower with the least cost.

The other Qinglou people who also wanted to find fault saw Mother Liu's figure, so they retreated to chew their tongues, including Mother Fang of the Broken Sleeve Pavilion. Since Huajianlou has come forward, the other Qinglou has chosen to wait and see, they don't have to, and they don't dare to grab the meat that Huajianlou looks at, no matter whether people eat it or grind it, anyway, follow Huajianlou, and finally be able to drink soup is good.

No matter what era we live in, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, and the ecological laws of the food chain will also be alluded to different occasions, even between countries.

The Southern Tang Dynasty is in a relatively embarrassing situation in the current land of China. The Northern Song Dynasty laid the foundation of its hegemony on the basis of Zhou Shizong's southern conquest and northern war, and after ten years of recuperation and the encroachment strategy of first easy and then difficult, first south and then north, the lowest end of the food chain was uprooted in Houshu and Jingxiang. Now he is targeting the Southern Han again, but before that, he first pulled the Southern Tang Dynasty as a backing and divided the two countries.

Once the Southern Han Dynasty was lost, the Southern Tang Dynasty immediately faced the enemy on its back, the north, the west, and the south, all of which were Song army hunting flags flying, even the East, or the loyal dogleg of the Central Plains Wu Yueguo, when Zhou Shizong fought the Southern Tang Dynasty three times, he was loyal to the Later Zhou, and all kinds of demolition of the Southern Tang Dynasty were replaced by the Northern Song Dynasty, which was stronger and more powerful, what else could Wu Yueguo do except kneel and lick? Once a person's knees are weak, they are habitually soft.

At this time, an eight-hundred-mile urgent battle report was delivered to Chen Qiao, the privy envoy of the Privy Council. Chen Qiao hurriedly opened it, and after reading it roughly, his face changed rapidly, cloudy and uncertain, and the battle report involuntarily fell on the case. He was secretly surprised in his heart: Why did Hezhou lose it so quickly?

Chen Qiao quickly entered the palace and went straight to the outside of Chengxin Hall. Chengxin Hall is the current Tang State Lord Li Yu in his father Yuanzong built after the Qinghui Palace, Chengxin Hall gradually became the Tang State military and political core place, but the secret painting in the will is mostly issued from the Chengxin Hall, Zhongshu Province, the Privy Council of the two major political and military core places have been like scattered land. In the later period, the hundred officials of the Tang State didn't even know what the Zhongshu Province and the Privy Council were for.

Chen Qiao personally handed over the battle report to Xu You, Xu You took a closer look, and the content of the battle report was to the effect:

宋军避开骑田岭、萌渚岭等险地,攻占白霞,于九月十五日包围贺州,贺州刺史陈守忠率部固守城池,不肯投降。 On the twenty-first day of September, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty sent reinforcements to Hezhou, Wu Yanrou, led his troops to arrive in Nanxiang at dawn, and the Song general Pan Mei and other ambushes suddenly rushed out, and Wu Yanrou's troops were in chaos, and the number of people killed accounted for 7 to 8 tenths of the whole army. The Song army captured Yanrou and beheaded him, showing him in the city, but the defenders in Hezhou still refused to surrender. Wang Ming, the transport envoy of the Song army, led hundreds of soldiers who were responsible for transporting the baggage, as well as thousands of people, to fill the ditch outside the city and reach the gate of Hezhou. The people of Hezhou were very panicked, so they had to open the door to welcome the surrender.

Xu You was not angry or shocked after reading it, but laughed. Chen Qiao looked at him angrily, such a military event, the Tang State was threatened by the Song Dynasty, how could he still laugh as the ruler of the country?
