010. Business is hard
This is not the first time that Nangong Dingkang has been suddenly called to Puzhou, there was no one in the private room of Baihualou when he arrived, and it was not the first time that a sense of disgust rose in his heart.
More than thirty years ago, when he took over the patriarch of the Nangong clan from his eldest brother, this century-old clan was poor and white, and his family had no prestige. At that time, it was a problem to eat, let alone associate with these noble families. However, a few decades ago, the Puzhou Yang clan was not considered a prestigious family.
Nangong Dingkang stood in front of the window expressionlessly, looking at the crowded street downstairs.
This time, ten out of ten is for the goods that were robbed in Yulin Weiliu Jintang last time, and nine times out of ten it is for the Nangong clan to compensate. Hmph, they don't seem to know that all the risks are borne by the Nangong clan, and they are sitting on their own to make huge profits, where is such a good thing?
Bullying the Nangong clan and no one in the court, a military department Shangshu let the Yang family take charge of the Jin Shang's bull's ear. The corner of Nangong Dingkang's mouth smiled slightly, yes, Liujin Hall is a prison guard and self-theft, which can be regarded as compensation for the losses of the past few years, and in the eyes of those people, there has never been a Nangong clan.
It took two hours for the bigwigs to come in a hurry, without a word of explanation.
Yang Zhongyi is the brother of the Yang Bo clan, I don't know when he has become the person in charge of everyone, "Brother Nangong, how to deal with the matter of Yulinwei?" "As soon as I came up, I went straight to the point.
"What the defenders do, we can't do anything." Nangong Dingkang was always expressionless.
"What do you mean no way?" Fan Dongyang jumped up, "We handed over the goods to you for shipping, you lost it, of course you have to pay, I have tens of thousands of taels of goods here, pay for it!" ”
As soon as Fan Dongyang spoke, several other people present stared at Nangong Dingkang. Guo Yipi said with a smile, "Alas, as far as I know, there are still ...... goods and of nobles in Beijing. ”
Nangong Dingkang also smiled, "The compensation is also deserved." But there are a few things before the loss, and you must understand it before deciding. In the past three years, not counting Yulinwei, we have helped you transport 21 goods out of customs, and you have not paid a penny. At the beginning, it was said that it was fifty taels for a car, but although ten years have passed, the price has not risen. You all have accounts, and if you can't remember clearly, I also have a receipt here. ”
"Nangong Dingkang, you figure it out! Now you've lost our goods! Fan Dongyang was anxious.
Nangong Dingkang ignored it and continued, "Including Yulinwei this time, I should only help you in the next place, if you have paid the freight and lost it in the next, it should be compensated, and now it is just helping." Moreover, under the huge loss, I did not ask you for subsidies, so where do you want to compensate? In addition, if you feel that what you said below is wrong, don't help in the future. As for those arrears, just treat them as friends, so let's get together and disperse. ”
"Nangong Dingkang, what are you talking about?!" Fan Dongyang is on fire.
"Don't be so angry, everyone." Wang Lixian smiled and appeased, as the in-laws of the Nangong family, he thinks he has the right to speak, if he wants to say that Nangong Wan has been married for ten years and has not come out, he has already committed the rule of seven outs, don't their Wang family still take care of it? "This kind of thing, everyone doesn't want it, Brother Nangong, why don't you talk about what you can do to deal with it, don't talk about breaking up at every turn, friends for so many years, there's nothing bad to discuss."
Nangong Dingkang smiled, "I'm old, my physical strength is not what it was back then, and Ah Pu is not interested in this kind of thing at all, not just now." Excuse me, everybody. ”
"We don't care." Guo Yi said lightly, "I just don't know how Brother Nangong plans to explain to the nobles in Beijing." After a pause, seeing that everyone didn't speak, he continued to say leisurely: "If it weren't for Brother Yang's face, Guo wouldn't want to come, and the opinions are so disagreeable, it's better to let Jingli preside over justice." ”
Wang Lixian looked at Guo Yi and smiled, "Brother Guo said this, alas, we are friends, Jingli, hehe, there are many nobles in Beijing......." He turned his head to Nangong Dingkang and said: "Brother Nangong, the past few years have been really hard, we all know that we should pay for it, right?" ”
Nangong Dingkang smiled, and didn't plan to answer, this was something that couldn't be discussed, "It's going to be the New Year, you have time to come to Pingyang to sit and do the east." ”
Guo Yi snorted and glanced at Yang Zhongyi, "There is something at home, Guo said goodbye." After saying that, he got up and left. The Guo family has a squire in the Ministry of Industry in the court, and he believes that he is a scholar of the fifth generation, if it were not for the fact that the expenses in the capital are too large, he would not sit with these philistine merchants.
Seeing that Guo Yicha left without drinking it, Fan Dongyang became even more popular, "Brother Yang, you say!" ”
Yang Zhongyi looked at Nangong Dingkang, and after a while, he suddenly smiled, "It's almost the New Year, I also want everyone to see each other for so long, just to get together." If there are many places that can be cooperated, this is not the only one. I think I was too impatient, and it didn't take long for this incident to happen, and Brother Nangong also had time to deal with it. Well, next time, we'll make an appointment to discuss. After all, the amount is large, and everyone can't afford to pay it. After a pause, he smiled and said, "What Brother Guo said just now is not wrong, I'm afraid that next time I will be under more pressure." Brother Nangong must be ready. ”
Nangong Dingkang smiled and nodded, "What Brother Yang said is very true, I have to rectify the four halls well when I go back next, and I am afraid that if something like this happens again, it will not be good for everyone." So, I'm afraid I can't help you for the time being, forgive me. ”
**********
The bizarre competition in Qifengzhuang was finally over, except for allowing Jingzhou people to talk a little more after dinner, and making the casino make a profit, there was no storm.
However, the local Jiangling satin, which is not a luxury, suddenly affected the lives of Jingzhou people. The satin, which is regarded as the standard dowry of the small jasper, is already priceless, and even the silk village only accepts and does not sell. The reason is that a maritime merchant came to Jingzhou and bought it at a price twice the market price. His reason is that overseas foreigners like the silk satin of the Ming Dynasty, but they are not very knowledgeable, and even if the price of Jiangling satin is doubled, it is still far lower than the silk satin in the Jiangnan area.
However, after the competition, Qifengzhuang closed its doors and handed over its industries to Luoyunshi to take care of, including Silk Village. However, this Luo Yunshi may be good for fighting, but not for business. When everyone received Jiangling satin, only the Yuantai Silk Village in Qifengzhuang was still selling at a flat price. He just set a rule and asked those who came to buy to register, and a family could only buy two horses in three days. So, there is a long queue at the door of Yuantai Silk Village every day, even so, the opening and closing time of Yuantai is thunderous from the morning to the afternoon, a shop is registered, a shop is delivered, and a shopkeeper collects money, and it is busy every day.
"Young Master Luo, Chen Chunyang, the head of Guangmao Firm, asks to see you."
In the past few days, for the sake of Jiangling satin, Luo Yunshi has to see more than ten large and small business owners almost every day, so he simply moved from Qifengzhuang to the backyard of Yuantai Silk Village. Guangmao is the property of Chengfengtang, and it is also the inheritance left by Hong Lai to his son Hong Jipeng. It was not the first time that Chen Chunyang came, and the purpose was the same as everyone else's, asking the same industry to transfer goods, but Luo Yunshi never gave him a clear word.
"Let him in."
After a while, a capable little old man came in, "Young Master Luo." ”
"Master Chen, sit." Luo Yunshi had a polite smile on his face.
"I know that Mr. Luo is busy, so let's make a long story short. At present, there are only Yuantai and Jiangling satin in Jingzhou City, I wonder if Luo Gongzi agreed to sell half of Yuantai's inventory at twice the price? ”
Luo Yunshi smiled, after so many days, someone finally figured it out and didn't think he was a fool anymore. Intra-industry transfer, hehe....... "Mr. Chen, is this what Hong Dangjia means?"
Chen Chunyang smiled, "Our owner has always wanted to do business with Qifengzhuang, but we didn't have the opportunity before. ”
"Oh, that's right. It's just that the maritime merchant surnamed Su is just such a price, and Mr. Chen is making such a price, isn't it unprofitable? ”
"Young Master Luo, I am also a wise person who does not say secret words. We Guangmao have received almost 30% of the goods in the market, and nearly 70% of the goods in the hands of weavers. Only by taking the lion's head can you talk to Mr. Su. ”
Luo Yunshi suddenly realized, "I see." However, I remember that Mr. Su was going to leave in three or five days, as if the sea ship was waiting for no one or something. In this way, the goods in the hands of the weaver may not be able to wait, right? Hey, in fact, Luo doesn't know much about this. ”
"Luo Gongzi is a person who understands. However, Mr. Su is not alone. Chen Chunyang smiled a little ambiguously.
Luo Yunshi seemed to think for a long time and shook his head, "Maritime business, Luo doesn't care." Luo only knew that Zhao Lao would hand over these properties to me, and when he recovered from his illness, Luo could return them to him intact, that is. ”
"Actually, it's just a group of people. Here, it will definitely not lose Qifengzhuang. Maybe Luo Gongzi can also earn an industry. ”
Luo Yunshi lowered his head and thought about it, as if he was a little moved, and said softly: "There are about three thousand horses of goods and ...... in the library. ”
Chen Chunyang's eyes lit up when he heard it. Then I saw Luo Yunshi, and still shook his head, "Forget it, it's not Luo's thing after all." ”
Chen Chunyang was very anxious when he heard him say this, if he hadn't gone to Qifengzhuang several times and had eaten a closed door, he really didn't want to talk about business with this twisted martial artist. Just wanted to speak, but I heard Luo Yunshi say: "Actually, Luo has always admired Hong Dangjia very much, if Hong Dangjia also thinks so, Luo can consider it." ”
"Hahaha, our Fengrun Building has recently launched a few new dishes, when will Luo Gongzi be free and come to the store for a taste?"
"It's ......." Luo Yunshi seemed to be a little puzzled.
"Our owner has always wanted to get acquainted with Luo Gongzi, but I'm afraid of being abrupt. Since Luo Gongzi is interested, how about setting up a line and meeting together? "Sure enough, it's a martial artist who doesn't open his mind, Chen Chunyang smiled very happily.
"Okay, then there's Mr. Lao Chen." Luo Yunshi's face was happy.
Seeing Chen Chunyang leave happily, Luo Yunshi sighed, the big drama has been going on for more than ten days, but Yang Wentian, the master of the main Erle Water Hall, has not seen him alive or dead.
Yang Wentian is a disciple of Hong Lai, and it is rumored that he is very shrewd. Originally, everyone thought that Yang Wentian would become Hong Lai's fast son-in-law, but who knows, Hong Lai married his daughter to Qin Yongsen, who was still the young master of the Iron Dao Gate at that time. Although he grew up with Hong Jipeng, after Hong Lai's death, the relationship between the two became very strange, and they couldn't tell whether they were friends or foes. But there is one thing Luo Yunshi is very sure of, when dealing with the Nangong Clan or the Iron Sword Hall, the two must be allies.
Add more fire, and there will always be people in a hurry.
Not long after, someone saw Luo Yunshi visit the maritime merchant Su Longfei, and after a while, Su Longfei went directly to Yuantai Silk Village with Luo Yunshi, and took a Jiangling satin with him when he left. After that, Luo Yunshi began to buy Jiangling satin around Jingzhou, which was ten times the price before, but asked for special fancy customization. Many weavers broke the contract with the previous merchants and began to weave the fancy required by Luo Yunshi.
Su Longfei took the purchased Jiangling satin a day later and left Jingzhou. The merchants of Jingzhou were anxious, and everyone wanted to know what Luo Yunshi and Su Longfei had talked about.
