Chapter 220: Preparing Congratulatory Gifts
The next day, the city of Kyoto became particularly lively, and the streets and alleys were talking about the Zhong family.
Because of Zhong Xuanlan's coma, the Zhong family in Kyoto City was taken over by Zhong Tingzhi of the side branch.
Everyone thinks that he has received huge benefits, only he knows that he was tricked by Zhongyou!
A few days ago, he took people to search out the account books, title deeds, etc. from the Zhong Mansion, and when he returned home, he found that all the shops of the Zhong family were closed, and ordered someone to take over immediately, and then, open the door to do business.
As a result, he couldn't let the shop open at all, and it turned out that Zhong You gave all the stewards and men of the Zhong family's shop a holiday.
Later, he thought that it was convenient to take over, and he could take the opportunity to dismiss some people and then arrange for his people to enter the shop, but he thought that Zhong You would take away the important stewards and dismiss all the rest.
Zhong Tingzhi sat in the study, pinching his eyebrows, he was thinking about how to take over the Zhong family's shop that had no manager, while calculating the Zhong family's accounts.
"Knock knock."
The sound of the door brought Zhong Tingzhi back to his senses and said, "Come in." ”
The steward hurriedly walked in and said, "Something has happened to the master!" ”
Zhong Tingzhi looked at the steward unhappily and said, "Huh? ”
When the steward saw Zhong Tingzhi's gaze, he was shocked, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, he hurriedly changed the topic and reported: "Master, the Liu family, the An family and other merchants have sent stewards to the door to ask for money. ”
Zhong Tingzhi said suspiciously: "What kind of money do you want?" ”
The steward said: "The money owed by the Zhong Da family." ”
"Owe money?" Zhong Tingzhi squinted slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, "I'm not from the Zhong family, why are you looking for me?" ”
The steward said: "They heard that the master temporarily took over the shop instead of Zhong Da, so they came to ask for money." ”
Zhong Tingzhi thought that he hadn't gotten a penny from the Zhong family yet, and now one or two were thinking about the Zhong family, hehe, he was really a bully!
"You go and tell them who owes whom, I'm just temporarily taking over the Zhong family, and I can't call the shots at all."
"Yes."
What Zhong Tingzhi didn't expect was that Zhong Xuanlan would be so ruthless!
"Master, master, it's not good......" Zhong Tingzhi was very annoyed when he heard this voice in the study.
When the little guy broke in, he scolded unhappily: "What is the flustered matter, what kind of system."
If you can't give me a satisfactory answer today, you're waiting to be sold! ”
The servant replied, "Someone has broken into the shop to move things." ”
Zhong Tingzhi said with an unhappy face: "Who ate the bear-hearted leopard and dared to touch my things?" ”
The little guy said cautiously: "Lord Yin Zeng of Kyoto Prefecture." ”
Zhong Tingzhi asked, "Why?" ”
The little servant said: "Master Zeng said that the master could not make the decision to pay off the debts owed by the Zhong family, so he had to do it himself in order to give an explanation to the debtors." ”
Zhong Tingzhi asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
The little guy said: "The slave doesn't know. ”
"Then don't hurry up and inquire about the news."
"Yes." The little guy took the order and left.
And Zeng Youzhi was directing his subordinates to count things at the gate of the government office.
He looked at the truckloads of things that were being carried from the Zhong family's shop, and smiled at the corners of his lips.
He has made a lot of profits for his family now, and he shouldn't be forced to go home again!
However, thinking that he was enslaved by Zhong Xuanlan again, he was very unhappy, hehe, he would return it one day.
Now he wants Zhong Tingzhi to be unhappy, who makes him troublesome, and it also affects him!
Zhong You spent two or three days negotiating a lot of business with the Liu family, the An family, the Lu family and other merchants, and took away a large amount of silver from them with the overdue payment of the goods and the Zhong family firm as collateral.
Now that he is gone, it means that he wants to make the Zhong family's trading house disappear from Kyoto City.
Passers-by and creditors were waiting here, thinking in their hearts what happened to the Zhong family, could it be that Zhong Xuanlan fell down just because he was in a coma?
They didn't want to believe this speculation in their hearts, after all, emaciated camels are bigger than horses!
However, some businessmen with a keen sense of smell are keenly aware of what is going to happen, and while waiting to get compensation back, they order people to go to various places to find out the news.
When Zhong Tingzhi got the news and came again, Zeng Youzhi had already started to repay his debts one by one, and he couldn't stop it.
When Zhong Tingzhi saw Zeng Youzhi take out the title deed of the Zhong family's firm, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, how can you have the title deed of the Zhong family?" ”
Zeng Youzhi said: "Zhong You gave it to this official, what questions does Patriarch Zhong have?" ”
Zhong Tingzhi wanted to tell the truth, but Zeng Youzhi was in charge of all the land deeds in Kyoto City, how could he not distinguish the truth from the false.
The answer is self-explanatory.
He was not only tricked by Zhong You, but also calculated by Zhong You to become a disaster blocker!
Now he has nothing to gain, and he may have to pay a sum of money!
This morning, Gonggong Fu came to convey the order of the Empress Dowager Zhong, asking him to send a sum of silver into the palace.
As soon as Gonggong Fu left, Gonggong Li came, conveyed the order of Emperor Jingxi, and ordered him to send a sum of silver into the palace.
Thinking of this, Zhong Tingzhi's heart was full of anger, but there was nowhere to get angry!
However, the person who played him was doing something in Yuncheng.
"Childe, do we really want to rob in broad daylight?"
Zhong You slapped the person next to him and said with a smile: "Liu San, what is robbery, we are preparing to give a congratulatory gift to the little master." ”
Liu San rubbed the back of his head, glanced at Qian Zhuang opposite, and then looked at Zhong You and said, "Son, are you sure you won't be arrested?" ”
Zhong You saw that there were no customers in Qianzhuang, and glanced at Liu Sandao: "Catch? They definitely don't dare to report to the official, so they can only suffer a loss! ”
With that, he walked forward, and after finishing his work, he could go to Shengcheng to watch the show!
Zhong You walked into the money village with more than 20 people carrying boxes, and when the steward saw this, he thought it was a big customer, and greeted him with a smile on his face, and said enthusiastically: "Son, please inside, Huzi serves tea." ”
Zhong You glanced around, leaned over to the steward, and said mysteriously: "Shopkeeper, my son has a big business to discuss with you, can you move?" ”
The steward asked, "Is this box gold?" ”
Zhong You raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly.
The steward was very happy in his heart, and he would not have a bonus for taking this deposit.
"Come, Childe's backyard, please." The steward spoke, gesturing again.
Zhong You gave Liu San a look, and followed the steward to the backyard.
After Liu San saw them leaving, he ordered his subordinates to knock out the guys who stayed behind, and hung up the sign of resting and not disturbing, and closed the door.
Zhong You's group of people began a robbery operation, ten empty boxes entered the door, and ten full boxes went out, carrying a handful of silver tickets in their pockets by the way.
"Childe, I really didn't expect this Seven Princes of Southern Liang to be so thief that he dared to open a shop in Dongyuan, or a money bank!"
Zhong You walked in front in a dashing manner: "Liu San! This is the most dangerous place is the safest, you see if we don't see if the young master is okay, we can't find this place, if we talk about it, we really have to thank the young master! ”
Liu San asked, "Then do we want to save the young master now?" ”
Zhong You shook his head, "Our congratulatory gift for the little master has been prepared!"
But we haven't cooperated with the Seven Princes of Nanliang yet, and the big boss is not ready to give her child a congratulatory gift, how can we let the young master come back, stay first!
I don't think the young master will blame us, we are working hard to earn money for his nephew! ”
When Liu San heard this, he felt that what Zhong You said was quite reasonable, "Childe, you are right, let's solve the cooperation first!" ”
