Chapter 160: Between Gains and Losses

Shu Zicheng's staff members are not small in terms of real power and influence. But in a formal setting, if you don't have a name, you have to lean on the edge. Just right, pair up with Qin Feng.

The two of them swept around the huge hall and found two seats at a table in the corner. This table is all the mountain chiefs of other academies, great Confucians. Everyone basically knows Shu Zicheng and Qin Feng. Seeing the two of them sitting down, they bowed their hands and greeted each other.

Shu Zicheng is highly talented and emotionally intelligent, often dealing with people, and soon mingles with everyone, and the atmosphere is very harmonious.

Qin Feng was not used to talking in a crepe manner, so he casually chatted with the people around him, and then concentrated on dealing with the delicacies in front of him.

When you eat at the same table with others, you have to choose people. This table mountain is long, Confucian, eats Sven, and moves elegantly. If a chopstick accidentally clamps a large piece of material, it must be clamped steadily, picked up, and placed in the slag tray in front of him. Then put down the chopsticks and rest for a while before continuing to pick up the dishes. Every time you eat, put down your chopsticks once.

Only Qin Feng put a piece of food in his mouth, still holding chopsticks in his hand, his eyes were shooting on the table, and when he took a fancy to it, the chopsticks slammed into the ground and stretched out again.

Shu Zicheng walked with Qin Feng, shared the same table, glanced at Qin Feng, and said with a disgusted expression: "Sven is okay!" ”

Qin Feng smiled embarrassedly, put down his chopsticks, and picked up his wine glass: "Come on!" Let's go one! ”

Shu Zicheng rolled his eyes and raised his wine glass helplessly. Everyone else was smiling, and an old man smiled: "It's better to be young!" Looking at the momentum of the militia today, the old man really regrets that he was born decades early, otherwise, he would have come to the militia and wear this clothes! Take a walk with everyone! ”

"Proud of the walk?" Qin Feng was stunned.

"Hold your head high, the wind under your feet, invincible, and unite as one! Isn't it just Aobu! The old man laughed. Others agreed.

A table of people raised their glasses and took a symbolic sip.

For formal banquets, the order of position at the main table is particular, and there are name plates indicating how many people sit and who sits where.

Today's celebration banquet of Shilin Academy, the main table is arranged, the four major academy chiefs, three Qincha, Shu Governor, Lu Xun, the political envoy, and the eunuch Wang Gonggong. Exactly ten people.

Ma Tiancheng, the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission, was in poor health, and there was a shortage of one person, and this position was empty. Other people are not good enough to come and sit.

High-level banquets are not allowed to toast at the table, at most the guest of honor speaks, and everyone toasts together in the same place. As for borrowing wine to fight for wine, it is even more allowed. At each table, the people at this table chatted, talked, and drank by themselves, and their voices were also very low.

The rules and etiquette of the ancients are undoubtedly revealed.

At the main table, there are two Qincha, three local officials, and four mountain chiefs, all of whom are full of spring breeze and enjoy the glory today. After all, even if the merit is completed today, several people even took advantage of the prosperity to start a drinking order and wait for a few rounds of drinking.

Lu Shanchang's mind turned, and he began to calculate the gains and losses again, today everyone has gained, meritorious, famous, and some people have benefited! With a sweep of his eyes, he saw the guy in the corner, with a calm face, concentrating on drinking and eating, without the slightest hint of losing his reputation.

Qin Feng at this moment should be the most real. With such a weak reputation, only heavy money, this heart can be incomprehensible.

The people who can sit at the main table are all people who observe words and looks.

Chief Lu felt strange, and simply smiled: "Anyway, there is an empty seat at this table, why don't you invite a young man to come and sit down and give us this table a little more vitality?" ”

Governor Shu said with a smile: "Here, Brother Lu, you are the master, Lord Zhao and Gonggong Li are the honored guests, I will do as you like." ”

Qin Cha Zhao Fengshan hurriedly answered with a smile: "I am a guest, and the guest is as you please." ”

Lu Shanchang smiled, recruited a student in exchange, and whispered a few words.

The student walked up to Qin Feng and said softly, "Mr. Qin, I don't know if it's convenient now?" My mountain chief asked you to go over and talk about it? “

Qin Feng looked over and Shan Chang Lu smiled at him.

Qin Feng turned his head sideways and confessed his guilt to Shu Zicheng, then got up and followed the student to the main seat.

Lu Shanchang and Yang Wanyu changed positions, next to the empty seat. Qin Feng came over, saluted, Lu Shanchang got up, took Qin Feng's shoulder, pressed him to Ma Tiancheng's position and sat down, and sat down next to him with a smile.

Qin Feng became the focus of this table, and everyone said a few words to him, complimenting the achievements of the militia group, Qin Feng's heart to help the world, and his ability to play chess. In short, if you have the heart to praise people, there is no shortage of beautiful words.

Instead, Governor Shu smiled and put forward his hope: "The militia has a head Qin, and I believe that the militia will do more in the future." “

"Don't dare to disappoint Governor Shu, the militia will definitely work harder." Qin Feng replied with a glance.

When it was Father-in-law Wang's turn, Father-in-law Wang didn't talk nonsense, and said one word to Qin Feng: "!" The two drank it all and smiled at each other.

As for facing other people, regardless of identity, age, or qualifications, Qin Feng must be humble and polite and cautious when he replies, this is an attitude.

After finally socializing around, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the teacup in front of him, and moistened his throat. Fang felt that sitting here was not as natural and casual as the table just now.

Seeing that Qin Feng was free, Lu Shanchang groaned, turned his head sideways and whispered to Qin Feng: "I have contacted Fujian." "Sweet potato

Qin Feng was stunned, all along, the matters between him and Shilin Academy were passed on by Gao Wenjin in the middle. It's like between him and Governor Shu, it was Shu Zicheng who passed on.

This is because Qin Feng's identity is not weighty enough.

In addition, if something is not discussed and the negotiation collapses, there is an intermediary who can continue to mediate and discuss. There is room for everything.

Qin Feng was also used to this way, and suddenly heard Lu Shanchang talking to him directly, and he didn't understand the reason for a while, and couldn't help but show doubts in his eyes.

Lu Shanchang smiled and said, "In principle, there is no problem on the Fujian side. But this is a complicated matter, I will talk to you first, know your plans, and then negotiate the details with the other side. It's going to be much more efficient. ”

Qin Feng nodded and said with a smile: "This matter has caused trouble for the mountain chief." ”

Lu Shan said with a straight face: "I responded to this matter." Man'er's father, Lu Zhenggang, served as an envoy in Fujian Province. So I don't have much thought about it. Just talk openly and honestly. In the future, if you want to expand to other places, you have to rely on yourself. However, I believe you can do it, just like you made a bet that day, and I want you to win! It's the same with business, I hope you can do it. Because this is all for the benefit of the country and the people. “

Qin Feng said: "Lu Shan is righteous! Speaking of that bet, when can I collect the cashier? ”

"Another day, you can't think of this silver or not." Lu Shanchang smiled playfully.

"Oh?" Qin Feng was surprised and said, "Feng is stupid, can you ask the mountain chief for some advice?" ”

Lu Shan said eloquently: "In the past, Shilin Academy would ...... Shilin students then took 10,000 taels of silver as the note, introduced the talent Qin Feng, and took pinyin as the note, so that this word could be collected into a dictionary to benefit all living beings! The students of Shilin Academy exchanged 10,000 taels of silver for this model of Chinese dictionaries. This is the blessing of Dahua and the blessing of the people of the world. This is the allusion to the source of the dictionary, which will always be printed on the title page of the dictionary. Qin Xiucai, you can't accept this silver? Moreover, the academy will hold a special silver handover ceremony for this purpose. “

Qin Feng was dumbfounded, from then on, a hundred years later, a thousand years later, everyone knew that the dictionary was a bet made by Shilin Academy with silver, urging Xiucai Qin Feng to take the initiative.

And Qin Feng, the talented talent in this allusion, although he is talented, he seems to be greedy for money and has no righteousness! Because he created the dictionary not for public welfare, but to get 10,000 taels of silver.

The Shilin students in the story, although they don't have this talent, have a heart for the country and the people, so they scraped together enough taels of silver to satisfy Qin Feng's selfish desires......

Compare the two phases and make a judgment.

For half a day, I, the initiator and the biggest hero of the dictionary, became the worst villain in an instant? Greedy for money, selfish? Your good name has been left for a thousand years, and I have fallen for a thousand years?

People all over the world use my dictionary to read and write, and at the same time scold me for being a greedy villain?

Is there any reason for this?

But the problem is that this allusion, this story, is still true, and people have not wronged themselves at all.

So, be sure to read more! What is black can become white, and what is white can become black, and what is in one's hands is all the truth!

Qin Feng sighed: "This allusion? When will it be written? ”

"After the handover ceremony." Lu Shanchang smiled and said, "If you don't accept cash, this allusion can't be written yet." In a few days, the college will prepare for the silver delivery ceremony, notify you in advance, remember to come early! ”

"I'll be here sooner!" Qin Feng gritted his teeth and said.

Lu Shan's long words were actually advising Qin Feng that the 10,000 taels of gambling silver should be forgotten! Originally, Qin Feng had already made too much profit because of the dictionary. Even Lu Shanchang still has a careful knot in his heart. If Qin Feng, a greedy guy, can be deflated and exempt the student from this ten thousand taels of silver, Lu Shanchang's heart will be very happy.

However, Qin Feng is young and thin-faced, and when he talks about this, he still refuses to let go.

But this 10,000 taels of silver gambling is a small episode. Even if Qin Feng really didn't care about it, Lu Shanchang would not really leave such an allusion in the dictionary.

But this statement effectively explained the students who gambled against Qin Feng at the beginning, and they were originally very frustrated. Lu Shanchang only changed their words, and everyone's hearts were happy. If it weren't for your bets, how could there be a dictionary? Therefore, your name, and this bet, will be passed down like a dictionary, and it will also be famous all over the world.

Assuming that Qin Feng doesn't charge this 10,000 taels in the end, it will be even more of a Shilin story!

It doesn't matter, it depends on how long your Qin Feng's mouth is hard.

Lu Shanchang is no longer entangled in this topic, everyone has been young, young people are just vigorous and shallow, and they need more time to make the right decision again.

Lu Shanchang pulled the topic back again: "The bottom line on the Fujian side is that your caravan will go over, and the tax will be 100 and 20 over there. What do you think? “

Qin Feng restrained his mind and secretly calculated, this is a two-percent tax! Of the ten thousand taels of silver, there were only eight thousand left. According to the four-fold profit, you will get 32,000 taels. The Fujian government received 2,000 taels of excise tax and made a profit of 8,000 taels.

This tax is high, but Qin Feng is from modern times, and modern society does not count value-added tax, transaction tax, etc. Just one personal income tax, it is 20%! The more money you get, the higher the proportion has to go. Therefore, Lu Shanchang said cautiously, but Qin Feng agreed very cheerfully!

"Okay! So, if I load the goods in Fujian, will I still pay taxes? ”

Lu Shanchang originally thought that he would have to bargain, at least for a discount. Fujian actually gave half of the room to make concessions. Who knew that this greedy Qin Feng was so simple this time. Then he replied: "If you put the goods in the hands of local merchants, you don't have to pay taxes, you just take them away." “

"But what if I'm a Westerner, and the Nanyang people are directly in the hands of the goods?"
