Chapter VII. Local tyrants make friends
Although the sparrows are small and complete, there are only about 40,000 soldiers and civilians in Phidao Town, which is equivalent to the size of a town in later generations, but there is everything on the street, grocery stores, blacksmith shops, and red light districts, among which Yuxuanlou is quite a high-end one.
Sitting in front of a large table of banquets, Mao Jue was really worried, the beads of sweat on his head seemed to flow down like a stream, and he squinted at He Siyong from time to time.
"Fourth Brother He, is the southern shopkeeper you said reliable?"
This table of dishes is not cheap, there is fish and meat, there is no five taels of silver can not be served, it is pitiful, he is a dignified son of the governor of Dongjiang Town, if it were not for Mrs. Zhang's support of twenty taels of silver, he would not even be able to sit here.
"Young master, don't worry!"
At the mention of this, He Siyong was full of confidence, took his eyes off the female dependents who had just gone upstairs, and patted his chest and toes to the high-spirited discount package.
"This master is the son of the Changshu Qian family, come to our north, specially collect these rare things, what mink deer antlers, pay for silver without a beating, Jiannu's wild ginseng, buy a few boxes, like buying radish, the small one is also the year before last, followed by a group of Jin Xiaowei dug a Jin Dynasty noble tomb, got a copper mirror, only into the eyes of this lord, this time he fell in love with our glass pieces, can open his mouth to make an appointment, and he will definitely not be stingy!"
But when his eyes rolled, this thing showed a cunning look.
"Young master, if this trip is successful, the small one doesn't want the thirty percent broker money, you can always be in a hurry, talk to the little one in front of the big handsome, and the little one will be satisfied!"
This He Siyong is excited, don't look at the miserable mix of hundreds of households, people are good at being seven Ming hundreds, official body, in the end than they are ruffians and scoundrels, He Siyong's brain is enough, he can churn out a lot of money, but the background is not hard enough, many money only dare to smell, dare not touch, if you can catch Mao Jue's way, also mix a hundred households waist card, and then mix on this road, He Siyong's waist pole can be much harder, more valuable than dozens of taels of silver.
But now it's not certain whether he can fool things out, but Mao Jue didn't take his flattering words to heart, and nodded without a match.
"Well, I know."
At this time, Xiao Er, who was running outside the door, suddenly made a noise, and a few errand runners ran to the door together, and they really bowed together.
"Greetings to Young Master Qian, the young master is handsome and chic, the jade tree is in the wind, and he is amazingly talented, he looks like Pan An! Young Master Qian came to the shop, and it was a great honor to visit the shop! ”
Holy, what's going on?
Turning his head in shock, Mao Jue slapped his head again in confusion, is there such a fucking bag?
In these years, women don't show their heads, this is good, get four beautiful girls in their twenties, carry him in a sedan chair, and there are six families around, wearing neat blue brocade clothes and pants, like playing Tai Chi on the side, blocking the idlers from approaching.
Looking at the sedan chair, the pine crane brocade robe, wearing a melon skin hat, the head is also inlaid with jade, a fan is fanned, and the face is thicker than a woman.
To be honest, this product looks pretty good, quite a kind of scholar, the appearance of a middle-aged person, but looking at the powder and the dark circles that are faintly exposed underneath, the first impression is that Mao definitely thought of the kidney-deficient boy in the movie "Journey to the West" that he just watched a few days ago.
"Oh, Mr. Qian is here, and I ...... the little one."
After putting down the sedan chair, the two beauties stretched out their hands to help the Qian boy get off the sedan chair, and He Siyong immediately stuck to it excitedly like a plaster, but this guy seemed to treat him as air, and skipped directly past him, with a smile on his face, and stretched out a finger to Mao Jue with a smile on his face.
"Baoyu out of Cuishan, good tools out of blue hands! I'll just say that this Phi Island, the place where the military town is killed, how can it be that this good water glass came out? Sure enough, as soon as I saw Mao Gongzi, I was stunned, I haven't seen you for a long time! ”
Know?
Not only did He Siyong have a bunch of question marks in his head, but even Mao Jue himself stood up in amazement, and Mao Jue hugged his fists depressedly.
"I don't know when Brother Tai has seen Zaixia? I can't think of ...... under it."
"Brother Mao doesn't remember Qian?"
This kidney-deficient boy suddenly had a stunned face, and said with an exaggerated expression: "Liaodong Mansion Township Test, you and I, as well as Brother Song, Brother Zhang, and Brother Gao hit it off at first sight. ”
This kidney-deficient boy is still a glass heart, covering his chest with an old iron piercing heart, beating his feet and whining, which made a lot of cold sweat break out on the back of Mao Jue's head.
Fortunately, there is a plain clothes here who are good at chattering, and seeing that her young master is embarrassed, this little girl hurriedly accompanied her smile and said a blessing.
"Mr. Qian, my son-in-law fell into the water half a month ago and fell ill with his head, I can't remember a lot of things, please bear with me."
"Oh? Brother Mao is okay, right? Let Qian take a look! ”
suddenly turned into Lao Tie's worried face again, and the kidney-deficient boy came up and wanted to touch Mao Jue's head to see if he was suffocated, so Mao Jue quickly raised his hand with an ugly smile and declined, this guy didn't know if he was overzealous, turned around and went out again, shouting while walking.
"Green Lotus, take out my Nanyang Blood Bird's Nest, Boni Frankincense, and Tianzhu Divine Oil for me! Make up for Brother Mao. ”
"Who is this?"
Taking advantage of this, Mao Jue hurriedly turned his head sideways and turned his head to ask Xiang Suyi. At the mention of him, Suyi's little face couldn't help but show a sense of disdain.
"Hmph, it's just a nouveau riche from the south of the Yangtze River, last year I met the young master in Liaodong Township, and after learning that our master was Mao Shuai, he immediately stuck to it, and he couldn't get rid of it."
It turned out that it was still a spelling father.
Mao Wenlong occupies a very important role in the Liaodong war situation in the imperial court, don't look at Mao Wenlong's subordinates are only twenty or thirty thousand people, ten times less than the Liaodong army of two or three hundred thousand, and they occupy such as Phi Island, Zhangzi Island, Daludao, Jinzhou, these desolate places, and offshore islands, but here is a nail nailed behind Hou Jin, several times Hou Jin conquered Mongolia and attacked the Ming Dynasty, Mao Wenlong gave Nurhachi behind his back, and Huang Taiji was a great threat.
In the Ding Mao Rebellion, Mao Wenlong came out of Phi Island and harassed Amin's back road, so that the Qing army did not dare to fight a protracted war, and hurriedly forced North Korea to sign a contract and then hurriedly retreated to Shenyang, which became an important transit point for the Ming Dynasty to communicate with North Korea.
The importance of Mao Wenlong can be seen from the contradiction between him and his top boss Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai, because Yuan Keli investigated Mao Wenlong's lie about his military exploits, which caused a political dispute between the DPRK and China, in order to save Mao Wenlong, Yuan Keli, a civilian official, actually gave in to the military generals and retreated to Zhishi, which can be seen.
After Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, there was a change in the country the following year, and the Later Jin soldiers came to the city of Beijing, and then the Later Jin expedition to Korea, this time Korea completely fell to the Later Jin and became the food and military supply place of Jiannu. A series of accidents were after Mao Wenlong's death, so Yuan Chonghuan was killed by Chongzhen, and he was not wronged.
Although Mao Jue's son is not favored, but it is also worth stammering with people like the son of kidney deficiency, don't look at this Phi Island hanging overseas, there are many scarce goods from North Korea and Liaodong, this is the only port, you can make Mao Wenlong's crooked mouth, and many people can make a fortune.
Mao Jue, who listened to this speech, didn't feel very good in his heart, he wanted to rely on himself, but in the end, he still needed to rely on Mao Wenlong's shadow.
casually poured a glass of light wine from the table and led it down to suppress the discomfort, and suddenly Mao Jue turned his head again and asked Suyi.
"By the way, how did I do in that township exam?"
"Childe really doesn't remember anything......"
With a helpless sigh of emotion, Su Yi stretched out his hand and pointed to the outward figure: "It's because this guy invited a few sons to drink, missed the exam time, and fell to Sun Shan, for which the master also scolded the young master a few words, you yourself were angry and didn't eat for three days, don't you remember?" ”
Get! This is still a broom star!
Seeing the two large packages brought back by the kidney-deficient boy, Mao Jue shook his head speechlessly.
Then this banquet will be relaxed, to be placed in the future generations, this kidney void boy Qian Zeng is definitely the manager of the sales department, this guy can speak in the vernacular, and he has been to many places, he is well-informed, holding a wine glass, and the initiative of words on the wine table has never left him.
originally thought that he was going to pull down his son and slap him, but the situation was reversed, and he stammered himself, this guy saw the wind and snow in the south of the Yangtze River, and the market was prosperous, but it made Mao Jue also quite a little insightful.
As for He Siyong, he originally wanted to make a great contribution to this, but he didn't expect that Mao Jue would come to a foreign country to meet his old acquaintance, and at the same time, he had a little eyesight, so he directly retreated from the banquet first, not knowing where to go to drink stuffy.
This goods is really called a local tyrant, a meal of wine to drink in the afternoon, Mao Jue's first order in the Ming Dynasty was completed, I didn't see anything, this money had first thrown out five ingots of silver, a full hundred taels, and the two boxes of red utensils in Mao Jue's glass products factory were all wrapped down.
Even if the alcohol content is low in this era, and he drank two or three catties of sorghum wine, this guy's tongue still hit a few points, and he was carried out by Mao Jue, and while walking, he still shouted vaguely.
"It is said that Shandong is out of glass! Now that we are in the land of Liaodong, we can also produce glass, and when the time comes, we will see who else calls this the land of bitter cold! ”
"But Brother Mao, your glass is like Western French glass, those things made up by foreigners, I don't know if you have a diorama here?"
"Diorama?"
At the mention of this, Qian Zeng's eyes lit up a little, and he gestured with his hands excitedly.
"It is the kind of thin, translucent Western mirror, a hundred times brighter than our bronze mirror, people shine on it, it is said that it is a minute to see, a few years ago, those foreign monks brought to Nanjing, and finally was spent tens of thousands of taels by the big salt merchant from Yangzhou to get it, on this mirror, Qinhuai River's Oiran Zhao Qi'er to the bag, married to him this old man."
"If only we could play with it, tsk......"
The face of the peach blossom, I don't know which oiran Qian Zeng, the kidney-deficient son, thought of, sitting on the sedan chair and gesturing his hands indiscriminately, however, his sentence was tens of thousands of taels in a mirror, and Mao Jue who listened to it was shocked!
