In the land of Chengde, Jiedu makes Li Anguo a colorful tiger entrenched in it, and the thorn history of the four states under his rule is like wolves, they are the top of this food chain, high up, looking down on their territory and grabbing nutrients from this land to make themselves stronger, so as to exercise more powerful rule. And people like Wang Mingyi and Yang Kai can only be regarded as eagle dogs.

But even if they are just eagles and dogs, they still have the power of life and death for the people at the bottom, and a word can decide life and death, and a word can judge people's honor and disgrace.

For them, eating the jungle is as natural as eating and drinking, just like in front of them, whether it is Li Ze or Cheng Wei, in their eyes, it is just a plate of delicious food, the difference is only in how to eat it. Other people's wealth has changed hands in a casual conversation between the two, and they have not thought about the mood of the two families who have been deprived of these wealth.

A beast of prey, when it eats the lamb in front of it, naturally does not consider the mood of the lamb.

When Cheng Wei's father and son sent the general account book of Yixingtang and the annual flow account overnight, they were sent back without even seeing Wang Mingyi and Yang Kai, and the only reply they got was that they would go to the banquet on time at noon tomorrow.

When the two left in frustration, within the county office, Wang Mingyi and Yang Kai looked at each other.

Because what was reflected in the account book made both of them stunned. Yang Kai didn't know much, but Wang Mingyi was a great expert in this area, and just after a cursory glance, he roughly estimated the current value of Yixingtang.

Even if it was only the most conservative estimate, he was a little surprised.

"Last year, the net profit exceeded 120,000 guan, and this year this year is still in autumn, the net profit has exceeded 150,000 guan, and it is expected to exceed 200,000 guan for the whole year." Wang Mingyi's face flushed, and he looked at Yang Kai and said: "And three years ago, Yixingtang's annual income was only 10,000 yuan, and a risk made him fall into the crisis of bankruptcy. ”

All of this happened after Li Ze entered the Doctrine and flourished. In three years, the profit has increased twenty times, and this result has made the two jaw-dropping.

"What else can you see?"

"Give me time, and I will naturally be able to study their business methods and the context of their capital operation from these account books." Wang Mingyi groaned: "But Brother Yang, I am suddenly a little nervous now. ”

"What's wrong?" Yang Kai flipped through the account book in a hurry, he couldn't see a reason, and then the last number was clear and clear, flipping the account book, it seemed that the consistent copper coins were flying in front of his eyes, colliding in his ears, and his mood couldn't be better.

"Brother Yang, I'm worried now, does this Yixingtang have any strong background on the side of the Henghai Navy? If there is, then there is some trouble. Otherwise, I really can't figure out how this Yixingtang earned so much money? "Wang Mingyi himself is a big man in business, in Yizhou, he is the number one commercial bank, even under the rule of the entire Chengde Festival, he is also a well-known figure.

"This is under the rule of the Chengde Festival Envoy." Yang Kai disagreed, "What if he has a relationship with the Heng Navy?" Can you still count us? ”

"You can't say that, if you don't bring trouble, don't bring trouble, it involves two Jiedu envoys, but it's not something my uncle can suppress, once such a thing is exposed, do you think our Li Jiedu envoy won't come to insert a lever? When the time comes, we will have a bad reputation and not get much real benefit, and then the gain will outweigh the loss. Wang Mingyi spread his hands.

"That's right."

"Besides, I told you before that the most valuable thing about Yixingtang is their relationship and network on the side of the Henghai Navy, if this Yixingtang has a strong background over there, then we are afraid that we will not be able to use it, and this will become a one-shot deal."

Yang Kaileng was stunned for a moment, and a hideous expression flashed on his face: "Brother Wang Xian, just looking at this account book, the Li family has already made hundreds of thousands of yuan in the past few years, it is better to have a network, you are seven and I are three, you can also get more than 100,000 yuan, plus Cheng Wei, at least your uncle's military spending for a year will be settled, what do you think?" ”

Wang Mingyi paused, and then laughed. Yang Kai's family is just a small family in Yizhou, and it has always been attached to his Wang family, for him, this floating wealth is enough to make him happy for many years, but the Wang family is different. Wang Mingyi's business, most of the annual income is distributed to his uncle to run the officialdom, encircle subordinates, and build an army, which earns a lot of money, but spends it faster. It's cool to buy and sell with a hammer, but what about later? Yang Kai can take the money to buy land and property, but they can't, if there is a way to make money for a long time, he will never want to do this kind of thing of killing chickens and taking eggs.

He sat down, picked up the already cold tea bowl, drank a few sips slowly, and weighed it carefully, then shook his head and said: "Brother Yang, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, that Cheng Wei, who has been excluded from the operation of Yixingtang for several years, is blind to the business situation of Yixingtang, I don't know much, I mean, it is better to contact this Li Ze first." ”

"This kind of thing, I'm afraid he won't do it." Yang Kai shook his head and said.

Wang Mingyi smiled slightly: "Their orphans and widows are still very easy to handle, even if they have backers on the side of the Henghai Navy, they can't save the fire from far water, so it's still necessary to talk about it." If we can take over Yixingtang completely, we can promise him prosperity and wealth for the rest of his life, and it is not impossible. ”

"This is hundreds of thousands of floating wealth!" Yang Kai felt a little heartache.

Wang Mingyi looked at Yang Kai, and said in his heart that this was really the first time to be a local magistrate, and he obviously hadn't figured out the twists and turns below, so he had to mention him a few words.

"Brother Yang, take a long-term view, if we can take over Yixingtang completely, and at the same time take over his relationship with Henghaijun, it will not be a source of money in the future. Moreover, when I completely control Yixingtang, this Li Ze will be under your rule, how to rectify him is not a matter of your words, why bother at the moment? ”

Yang Kai's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea!" In this way, we have to have a good talk with this Li Ze, but a young man who is less than fifteen years old, is it really the head of this Yixingtang? Is it his mother, who never showed up? ”

"Even if his mother is in charge, this person must be doing the things that show up." Wang Mingyi said with a smile: "Brother Yang might as well send someone to invite this Li Ze to come over tomorrow morning, let's have a good talk first, talk well, you can still go to eat this banquet at noon, the guests and hosts are happy, if the conversation is not good, Brother Yang can leave this little brother Li in the county government, and then send someone to talk to his mother!" ”

Yang Kai sneered: "It's very good, my Wuyi prison is indeed empty now." ”
