Chapter 126: The Final ...... Kuroshio!
Chapter 126: The Final ...... Black cháo!
The beginning of every banquet like this is always boring......
Mr. Dong's summary of the various things that happened in Jiangning this year, some expectations for the coming year, change the soup and not change yào every year, because the situation began to become special this year, at this time he also said a lot of vague things, in fact, for the real situation of Jiangning's weaving industry, many people sitting here today probably understand much more than this Lord Dong.
"Eat crab ...... tonight" As a witness and participant of this night's events, Wang Wenzhuo of the Wang family muttered a sentence between the shaking of the lamp and shadow, and the aroma was already faintly coming from downstairs, and then turned his head to talk to a steward next to him: "What do you think of tonight's events?" ”
The steward of the Wang family said in a low voice: "Naturally, I still hope that the Su family can win, and it seems that the problem is not big." ”
"The Wu family and the Xue family are not fuel-efficient lamps, if you look over there, the two families don't seem to be very nervous, and the Su family ...... To be honest, this Ning Liheng makes me feel a little discouraged......"
The Wang family is considered to be a medium-sized merchant in Jiangning, and has always had a good cooperative relationship with the Su family, so at this time, it is natural to hope that the Su family can get the imperial business, and they will inevitably have benefits. It's just that Wang Wenzhuo looked at Ning Yi over there at this time, and felt that this was the only place that didn't seem to be very reliable. The steward of the Wang family smiled: "He is a scholar, there is no need to care about him, we know that behind the Dao is still the second sister of the Su family in charge of affairs, tonight is the Su family is fully prepared, and now it is only waiting to be closed, there should be no problem." ”
"As long as the Xue family doesn't move anything, I can rest assured......"
The relationship between the Xue and Su families is not good, so the Wang family does not have much affection for the Xue family, and many people in the circle think that the Xue family did the murder of Su Boyong a month ago. Of course, once this kind of thing is determined, it is very serious, and it is naturally impossible for anyone to say it on the surface.
In the midst of the sī words, the speech of Lord Dong in front of him was also close to the topic, and everyone quieted down, waiting for the most important thing to start tonight in the aroma of music.
“…… Today, please appreciate the newly woven snow yarn of my Qi family, the silk thread used in this yarn is not easy to weave, after it is made, light, thin and flexible, please take a look, this yarn is almost transparent, the natural texture on it is white like snow thread, we use a special loom to control the number of silk threads......"
In fact, it was not long after the night, on the green Yi upstairs, everyone had already sat down, between the many seats, the head of a weaver household is now spreading a piece of gauze in the center of the place, and on the many round tables around, fruits, snacks and other things have been all on it, many weavers and officials After he finished speaking, he discussed it, and then Lord Nahe Fanghe got up and announced with a smile that if you are interested, you can come forward to taste, so there are people at each table who go to the center, take a closer look at the quality of the gauze, and talk and laugh with the head of the Qi family.
Tonight's gathering is about the New Year's cloth, about the imperial merchants, and about the status of the weavers in Jiangning from now on. Of course, all kinds of jiāo streams will not stop at competing for the imperial merchants, and those who are confident in their own things will take out their faces, and then maybe some weavers will have the intention to come over to talk about cooperation or other things. At this time, this display has just begun, and after the head of the Qi family finishes speaking, there will basically be people smiling and surrounding to take a look, and some people are sitting and chatting around.
"This yarn is not bad......"
"The method of splitting the filament, the Wu family has had it a few years ago......"
"But the production of Wujia Nabu is not high."
"This Qi family can jiāo ......"
At this time, of course, it is impossible to talk in detail, but those who are interested have already gone up to see the quality, and then there will be a night to slowly consider and discuss, even if there is no interest, such as the Su family, the Wu family, and the Xue family, there will be people who will go over to evaluate it and say a few good words, as soon as this matter starts, the atmosphere will become warm.
After the Qi family, Lord He also began to call another family to come out and talk about this year's events, and everyone listened carefully, and some merchants may also have some information about wanting to see through lù at such a party, which may not be a weather vane for the coming year. After that, this one didn't come up with any new fabric, and then the next one......
After this program entered, everyone was a little serious, and their attention to the imperial merchants was temporarily lightened, and they looked at the things in front of them intently, discussing things that were beneficial to them. The Wang family also took a fancy to a fabric, Wang Wenzhuo discussed with the shopkeeper next to him, and decided to go there to explore the style of conversation or intentions or something during the banquet. There are about 20 merchants participating in this party, and each household must have something to say, but not necessarily everything to take out, which is also voluntary. When the party was halfway through the meeting, Naga said, "...... Please come out and talk about some of the things that have happened in the past year. During the banquet, the whispering caused by the display of the fabrics of the Fang Cai family gradually stopped, and everyone waited quietly for the display of the fabrics of the Na Lu family.
Then, the head of the Lu family came out to end a brief summary, and the person next to him brought over a brocade box, and he patted it with a smile: "...... In the past, I Lu family smoked tea silk by everyone's care, recently, we have followed the idea of smoked tea silk, and now we have produced a new cloth, which has not yet been named, first take it out and evaluate it with you, please correct your predecessors......"
He opened the box and asked his subordinates to display a black sè cloth in front of everyone, the crowd let out an exclamation, Wang Wenzhuo also opened his mouth and looked at it a few times, and then looked to the side almost at the same time as the housekeeper, casually looking at the reactions of some merchants around, the most important thing is the people of the Su family, the Xue family, and the Wu family. The Lu family's smoked tea silk was originally a famous cloth in Jiangning, and this party may also threaten the three families with the highest position. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and smiled with the steward.
"It seems that the three families have killer features, but it doesn't matter to the Lu family."
"That's how it should be."
"But this black cloth is really good, I'll go up and have a look."
Wang Wenzhuo got up as he spoke, and among the merchants here, in fact, many people were also observing the faces of the Wu family, the Xue family, and the Su family. The Wu family has always been smiling gracefully, and after each thing comes out, they talk about it very gracefully, and then go up to ask some questions, and it hasn't changed at this time. The Xue family is also full of confidence, and the Su family is similar, now the first genius of the temporary big house, Ning Yi's right hand has been pressed on the lid of the brocade box on the table, his fingers are leisurely tapping, and a feeling of quiet and confidence arises spontaneously, at this time, the shopkeeper Liao did not talk to him, but said a few words with a smile with the shopkeeper next to him, and then got up and stepped forward, and Su Zhongkan next to him also walked over.
The cloth of the Lu family can't shake the position of these three families, but in Jiang Ning's view, it is already a very good cloth, and for a while, it set off a party in the party, and Wu Chenghou of the Wu family has also come out at this time, and Su Zhongkan talked about this cloth for a while, and gave a high evaluation. After the time was over, the black cloth was displayed at the front of the floor, so that everyone could see it throughout the feast.
When the next one came out, the discussion had not stopped, and then these discussions calmed down slightly, and everyone entered the time of the rest of the merchants, the afterglow of the black cloth of the Lu family has not disappeared, and after the arrival of several families, He Fang came out to say the name of the Xue family's "Dachuan Cloth Shop", and the breath in the banquet hall was suddenly cut off by a knife. This night, a moment that almost everyone had been expecting, finally arrived.
At the round table, Ning Yi's tapping fingers stopped, Shopkeeper Liao and the others were in the right position, Xue Yan smiled at this side, stepped forward with a wooden box, and began to talk about the good things in the Xue family in the previous year. The hall on the second floor was quiet, everyone was paying attention to what the Xue family was about to take out, as well as the attitude of the Su family, when the Xue family finally showed a purple and luxurious new cloth, almost the breath in the entire space was condensed. People quietly waited for the reaction of others, most of them looked towards the Su family, and even the Xue family was looking at the Su family with attention. After looking at it for a while, the shopkeeper of the Su family was also exchanging some glances with each other.
One second, two seconds...... Finally, Shopkeeper Liao looked around, tidied up his robe, stood up with a smile, and was about to step forward to look, when he took a step, Ning Yi frowned, his fingers fell again, and his back leaned back in the chair. Then, I heard the surrounding sī words become one in the midst of a bang, and everyone got up one after another and walked forward.
"The Su family didn't react?"
"How?"
"The Xue family has no tricks?"
"The Su family has been preparing for a few years, and it doesn't seem to make much sense just by assassinating Su Boyong, Su Tan'er hasn't fallen ......"
"This time, the Su family's desperate gamble has paid off......"
"The finale, I'm afraid the imperial merchant will go to the Su family......"
"It's hard to say about the Wu family, but if the Wu family has a heart, according to the past situation, it should be the finale of the Wu family......
"Thick accumulation, real accumulation and thin hair is like this......", "Su Yu should rest assured that he will give his family to his grandson ...... now"
In the various discussions of whispering sī, everyone also walked forward with a smile, as one of the three major families of Jiangning Weaving, although everyone was stunned at this time, they still did not give it face, and the scene suddenly became lively. Of course, in such a lively situation, everyone has their own mood. Lively is lively, when the Xue family put the purple cloth in front, Xue Yan walked back to his seat without seeing his expression, and then turned his head to talk to his younger brother.
"I'm thinking, Su Tan'er may really win the imperial merchant ...... tonight."
"Fang Cai Su Zhongkan Su Yunfang's face became a little strange, hehe......"
The banquet was still in the midst of huge doubts and discussions at this time, He Fang got up and waved his hand and couldn't suppress it too much, he said as usual to let the next family come out, Wu Chenghou stood up from his seat with a smile, and then brought a brocade box forward, the crowd was slightly stunned, and Wu Chenghou had already spoken with a smile.
The rear was a little quiet, Wang Wenzhuo glanced at Wu Chenghou, and frowned: "Why is the Xue family after the Wu family?" ”
"Yes......" The steward of the Wang family nodded, also suspicious, and then tilted his head again, and continued to talk about it: "In any case, as long as the Su family wins the imperial merchant this time, the heart will be settled, if Su Tan'er can't take over the family business, the consequences will be ......."
"I'm ready to ...... after today"
They were talking tightly about what Fang was still saying, and Wu Chenghou's speech above was a little dry, and most of them still listened to it, and their doubts were unabated. On the side, the Xue family brothers frowned and whispered: "Heh, I've been wondering if the Su family is thinking about Su Boyong's assassination case too complicated......"
"The reaction was very strong, but no wonder, I just hope that something goes wrong with them in the end......"
"I still don't believe that they can really make anything that can overwhelm everyone, and they preach it so much......"
"Su Tan'er is sick, those shopkeepers can only do this, no matter what, at the last moment, it will be ...... Wow. ”
Xue Jin hadn't finished saying this, his eyes looking ahead were suddenly stunned, even if everyone was chatting, they were listening to Wu Chenghou's words, and at this time, a brocade of gold suddenly unfolded in front of everyone. What Wu Chenghou said was not meaningful, but at this time, it was also casual, but after the golden tapestry unfolded for a moment, it suddenly attracted everyone's attention.
Xue Jin and Xue Yan were stunned for a long time, and Wang Wenzhuo, who was talking to the steward beside him, involuntarily adjusted his body and stretched his neck. Xue Yan watched it for a long time, and probably forgot about the topic of Fang Cai's single-minded and younger brother, and then sighed: "The Wu family is really ...... Biting dogs don't bark ......"
"The Wu family also came up with a killer ......"
"This cloth...... No......" Xue Yan suddenly reacted to something and looked to the side
On the side of the black Chenghou in front, the cloth of golden sè is unfolded, and there are silk threads that are also dyed into gold sè as raw materials in the box. Wu Chenghou was still talking: "This golden brocade is dyed by a special dyeing cloth formula found by my Wu family, and the weaving process is in charge of Luo Shenzhen, so it ......"
He paused slightly, stopped the introduction with a smile, and in the hall that quieted down at some point, a figure in a green robe had already crossed a few tables, and it was Ning Yi, who was looking at the golden brocade beside Wu Chenghou, and had gotten up at some point. At this time, everyone was still sitting, but he slowly walked closer, and then stopped slightly, and everyone in the whole venue looked over. He Fang thought for a while, and then stood up slightly: "Nephew Ning Xian, at this time, the Wu family has not finished speaking, and it is not time to step forward, please go back to the table first?" "In the past, everyone was called a virtuous nephew or something, and the relationship seemed to be good, and at this time, He Fang's tone was also kind.
However, there was no response.
Quietly, people's eyes began to go back and forth between Ning Yi and the people of the Wu family, some people gradually thought of something, and then some people thought of more......
"Not quite right......
"What's wrong......
"No, no, no......"
"Wujia ......"
"Something is wrong with the Su family......"
Something suddenly swept up like a snowball, but for a while it seemed to be just a change in the atmosphere, no one discussed, but each other's eyes became complicated, and gradually became more complicated. The atmosphere became restless, and it seemed that the words were about to sound immediately, and the shopkeeper Liao had already walked over at this time, trying to get Ning Yi to go back, and Wu Chenghou in front of him also looked at Ning Yi for a long time, he had been smiling a little míhuò, and then opened his mouth with "heh". "Well, it's okay, if Ning Xian's nephew wants to come and see, he can come and take a look." It's okay, speaking of which, I also talked to Ning Xian's nephew a few days ago, and there is also a new cloth at home, if Ning Xian's nephew has poetry, I want to ask my nephew to write a poem for it, but it doesn't need to be too good, just borrow the fame of the nephew. In short, this cloth has been taken out, but there is no need to introduce more, the weaver of Luo Shen needle must still be worth boasting about, come on, you don't have to be polite, please advise, hehe, I won't say more......"
Several stewards close to the Wu family stood up, but for a while, not many people spoke, and some whispers that were difficult to hear shuttled through them.
"Something went wrong......"
Wang Wenzhuo frowned, and then stretched out his hand to róu, his eyes were complicated and indescribable.
"Yes...... Wu family? Xue Yan leaned back in his chair in disbelief, and then let out an equally complicated laugh, "Heh." ”
Ning Yi and Shopkeeper Liao were in everyone's sight, Shopkeeper Liao said something, but Ning Yi frowned and didn't say anything, he just looked at Wu Chenghou, looked at the two brothers Wu Qilong and Wu Qihao who came over with a smile, sometimes his eyes didn't know where to look, only for a moment he seemed to grit his teeth and wanted to continue to move forward, and Shopkeeper Liao grabbed his shoulder.
In the next moment, the whole hall seemed to be cut in two pieces by something, one pale and one noisy. Ning Yi finally returned to his seat and sat down, he just looked at the center of the venue, his eyes complicated and he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking. Of course, in fact, all businessmen may have seen that kind of gaze, which is the eyes of some people when they are enthusiastically thrown into the mall and then swallowed up by the darkness of the mall, which is complicated and indescribable, and it is unbelievable that they are unable to speak. Many people have already guessed something, and even if they are not sure what they guessed, they have already felt the atmosphere.
Buzz, buzz......
The Wu family returned to their seats, and the golden brocade was placed in front, but the feeling of division did not leave, and the feeling of fast forward did not disappear regardless of the pale and noisy picture. Everyone was waiting for the conclusion of some things, they looked at the Wu family who was still smiling, looked at Ning Yi who was silent in the Su family's seat here, and the few shopkeepers who were still calm. The Xue family had already guessed many things, and Xue Sheng frowned and sighed at the two sons.
"The dog that really bites people doesn't bark, the power of the Wu family lies in this, silently, watching everyone shouting noisily, it quietly turns its hands into clouds and covers its hands for rain behind it...... Heh, the Su family has been so powerful during this period of time, it is useless, this trick is really ruthless. The situation of Jiangning's weaving will no longer exist, and after the Su family is finished, it must be taken as a warning...... Alas......"
In the past, the relationship between the Xue family and the Su family was not harmonious, but at this time, in his sigh, there was no longer any schadenfreude. It seems to have seen the twilight of an era, the red burning clouds on the horizon, the residual red will be broken, and there is a slight regret and melancholy.
It's not because the Su family can't do it, but because the Wu family is behind it, it's really powerful. Xue Yan looked at Ning Yi who was sitting there, the role played by this scholar in the past month was probably the most xiǎo, he felt like a sheep standing in the wolf pack, he didn't have much room for resistance, he also felt that things were ridiculous in the past, but at this time, the back was obviously very lonely, he still couldn't do anything, and he didn't do anything, but at this time it seemed a little sympathetic.
Finally, at a certain moment, He Fang's voice sounded, pushing everything to the end......
