Chapter 459: Humiliation

Gu Yanshang they are really helpless, now many businessmen in the two cities are lining up to go to the North Lane to do business, and the vast majority of them are some small and medium-sized businessmen, because the two cities are saturated, they don't have much room to play in the two cities, the North Lane is different, the North Lane is a just emerging market, and there are dramas, good voice escorts, and the second lane of fireworks that will never wither, there will be no fewer guests, in this case, why don't I go to the North Lane, maybe I can still be rich.

Although the strength of these merchants is meager, but they are all gone, you will not find so many merchants to replenish for a while, and they will also take a large number of guests, Pingkangli is bound to replace Xishi, which is also a devastating blow to them as rich merchants.

Now that the imperial court has made it clear that it will only give them a chance to negotiate, and it doesn't matter if it becomes the imperial court, so they can only beg Han Yi to let them go, don't let them die.

Before this Han Yi walked to the door of the city office, they immediately greeted him, saluted together, and all respectfully called Han Yi Han Yushi, no longer Tian Sheer.

"Courteous, courteous." Han Yi arched his hand and said again. "I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to keep you seniors waiting. I guess I'm not late, though. ”

Gu Yanshang hurriedly said: "No, no, now there is still a quarter of an hour before the appointed hour, and we arrived early." ”

"I see, I thought I was late."

Han Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Today's discussion is just about buying and selling, so don't call me any Han Yushi, lest someone say that I use the public for personal gain, call me Han Yi, or Brother Han." ”

Gu Yanshang smiled and nodded, anyway, what you say is what it is.

Han Yi stretched out his hand and said, "Then let's go in and talk." ”

"Han Yushi, please."

Gu Yanshang stretched out his hand and said.

"Where is it, Gu Lao is a senior, please invite first."

"No, no, no. Han: The little brother is a guest, so he should be invited first. ”

Han Yi knew that even if he was humble, the other party would not dare to take this step first, and this was the case with a request, so he stretched out his hand and smiled: "Then let's go together." ”

But Gu Yanshang was still one step behind Han Yi, and until now he didn't figure out Han Yi's thoughts. Therefore, it is very cautious.

Han Yi is polite, Qian Dafang They will not be polite, and they strode in with Han Yi, leaving Wei Qing and the others as if they had eaten stool, as embarrassing as they wanted.

In response to that saying, do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

It's just that this retribution came too quickly.

When they came to the city office, the officials had already evacuated to make room for them. In fact, staying here is a shame, everyone knows that Han Yi is the biggest today, and they can't speak, so it's better to hide their face at home.

When they arrived in the hall, Han Yi and Gu Yanshang naturally sat down, and the rest of the people sat on one side. Of course, the mood of the two sides is very different.

Gu Yanshang said with a smile: "Brother Han is really better than blue. Lao Yu has been trading for so long, but he has never met a businessman as smart as Brother Han. ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "Where, where, Gu Lao praised it, I still want to ask Gu Lao for some business experience." ”

I'm going to teach you, and then I'm not going to sit here. Gu Yanshang felt quite uncomfortable when he heard it. His ancestors have been trading for generations, but now he still has to bow to this hairy boy. He also said: "Brother Han, I was really sorry a few days ago, it was just a misunderstanding. ”

"Misunderstanding?"

Halfway through his words, Han Yi waved his hand. Interrupted him mercilessly, and asked rhetorically, "What misunderstanding?" ”

Gu Yanshang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Han Yi with a little surprise, your face has become too fast.

The rest of the merchants were also stunned, nervous.

You are so tough this time, how can this negotiation continue, and the settlement is agreed.

But Qian Dafang and others are very happy, and what they want is this kind of atmosphere.

Scared you to death. Han Yi suddenly smiled, and changed his words: "This is not a misunderstanding, this is very normal, buying and selling, it is based on each other's ability, it is inevitable that there will be friction between each other, it is impossible to humble each other, and it is impossible to talk about right and wrong, so Gu Lao does not need to explain, let alone apologize." ”

This is ambiguous, Gu Yanshang is still not sure, I don't know if Han Yi is sincere, or if he is talking back.

Han Yi glanced at it and said with interest: "Although there is no right or wrong in this matter, there is a victory or defeat. Gu Lao, do you know where you lost? ”

Gu Yanshang was stunned again, and said, "Please also ask Brother Han to teach you." ”

"I don't dare to teach you."

Han Yi shook his head and said, "Everyone supports exchanging experiences with each other." After a pause, he continued: "Actually, if you lose, you will lose because you are too narrow-minded and have no heart to tolerate others. On the surface, you seem to be very united, but in fact, everyone is playing their own calculations, for fear of suffering a little loss, including you Gu Lao, it is precisely because of this narrow psychology that you will be defeated. ”

As he spoke, he swept his gaze.

Gu Yanshang, Wei Qing and the others were all embarrassed on their faces, and they all avoided Han Yi's eyes.

Qian Dafang immediately said: "I think Brother Han's words are very reasonable. ”

Zhao Sijia nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes." ”

Wei Qing glanced at Qian Dafang quickly, and the hatred in his heart.

Han Yi didn't stop them, he brought them here, just to let them pretend to be forced back, but he didn't answer this, and said inexplicably: "Let me tell you a story." ”

"Story?"

Gu Yanshang was stunned.

Han Yi's speech is always so erratic.

Han Yi nodded and said: "I remember when I was ten years old, I went up the mountain to play with a few companions in the village, and suddenly found a wild egg. Saying that, he suddenly wanted Gu Yanshang to ask, "I don't know what Gu Lao thinks, how should this egg be divided?" ”

Gu Yanshang was puzzled when he heard this, and said, "Old decay thinks-who thinks who should see it first?" ”

"But there is a good saying, those who see have a share!" Han Yidao.

Gu Yanshang really didn't have the heart to think about this problem, shook his head and said, "I don't know either. ”

Han Yi nodded and said, "At that time, we also thought about it for a long time, and then we came up with a way, which was to protect this egg and hatch it into a chicken." Raise the chickens so that everyone can share them. In fact, now my Datang commercial market, that is, an egg, Chang'an alone has a population of millions, and our goods are exported to the Western Regions and other places, and merchants. It's only thousands, but it has to support my Datang's business, don't you all feel surprised? Of course, this is not to say that we businessmen are powerful, but we are just living in an egg era, if this is just a bun, then there is nothing to say, whoever can eat it has the ability, and the bun is impossible to get bigger. But the problem is that this egg can hatch into a chicken, and a chicken can lay a lot of eggs, and the egg can hatch into a chicken, and that's what we have to do. Do you understand? ”

Gu Yanshang and the others were confused when they heard it.

It was Ramheed, a profiteer, who muttered: "Brother Han means that we should work together to make this market bigger." ”

In fact, Ramhid is a Jew, and he takes pride in doing business, don't look at his usual giggling. But he took every step precisely, and made a lot of money in North Lane.

"That's exactly what happened."

Han Yi nodded. Said: "You want to deal with my North Lane, it's just because we North Lane robbed your guests, but why don't you want to develop more guests, there are still many people outside the business, and there are still many potential customers waiting for us to explore, such as Women's Day." In the past, women didn't even go out, so the benefits born on Women's Day are the benefits that were not originally there, and this is the new customer group.

There is also the night market, which was not originally available. So in the future, after the appearance of the night market, the benefits generated will increase, this is the right way, even if my North Lane is closed, you will be the same as before at most, you can calculate the income at the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and it will be like that, is this business interesting? What we need to do now is to maintain the existing market while continuing to expand the scale of the market, develop more customers, and explore more benefits.

In fact, this truth, Taizong Shengshang has already told us, in the early days of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, how much arable land was there, and now how much arable land is, if Taizong Shengshang thinks the same as you, then wouldn't it be necessary to determine how many people should survive according to the amount of existing arable land, as for the remaining people, all of them will be killed. It is said that the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, I wonder if the upper beam is right, but the lower beam is so crooked, our Son of Heaven is so broad-minded, how can there be a group of narrow-minded people like you. ”

This face has become too fast, the businessmen in the two cities are all glaring at Han Yi with dissatisfaction, we are all like this, you are still scolding, it is inevitable that you are too bullying.

Gu Yanshang was so sarcastic in front of a young man who was less than twenty, he was very unhappy, and said, "Brother Han, what you said is a bit excessive. ”

"Excessive?" Han Yi laughed and said, "I have already given you a lot of face, in the end, you only have this pair of eyes left to stare at me." As he spoke, he stretched out a little thumb, and compared his thumb upwards, and said: "Just your mind, it's really not that I look down on you, even if you do a lifetime of trading, that's it, don't be unconvinced, I'm just here Han Yi, it's only been a year, and the business is so big, if I were you, where would I still be in the mood to chat here, I would have been ashamed to jump into the well."

But do you know why this is happening, because I have been trying my best to hatch this egg into a chicken, I am thinking about this market, and my heart is to help the merchants in my North Lane make more money, so everyone is willing to come to my North Lane, and what about you? You will stare at that little bit of money, for fear that someone will take an extra penny, and your mind has already determined your life. ”

"Smack!"

Gu Yanshang really couldn't bear it anymore, slapped the table suddenly, Huo Ran got up and said: "Han Yi, you are too arrogant, yes, now you have the upper hand, but it doesn't mean that you can decide our lives, if we really fight with you, you may not be able to win." ”

The rest of the merchants also stood up and glared angrily at each other.

"Not necessarily, but certainly."

Han Yi smiled indifferently and said, "Let's just talk about your Gu family, your Gu family has a century-old Gu family's honor in Xishi, with a deep heritage, mainly engaged in agricultural trading, and has many stable customers." But now that there is a bumper harvest every year, most of the people can be self-sufficient, the price of rice is also very low, and my Datang national strength is thriving, and the people are rich, so the future market of rice bank. It must be restaurants, wine shops, green houses, hotels and other food and beverage-related industries, but can you help these industries attract more customers? Can you help them become bigger and stronger?

Even if you can, you don't have a heart, but I can, I will help them earn more money, I'm not bragging, I won't talk about it, now as long as I let my dramas, sketches, and good voices be performed in their restaurant, they will definitely make more money. I believe that as long as I open my mouth, no one will come to your Gu family to do business, and if you lose these channels, your Gu family will be like that. ”

As he spoke, he smiled slightly, looked at Gu Yanshang, and said, "If Gu Lao doesn't believe it, let's try it alone." The only thing that the hundred-year-old Gu family can explain is that your Gu family has been working longer than me, and the rest can't prove anything. ”

Qian Dafang suddenly smiled and said, "Wei Qing." Brother Han said that it was Mr. Gu, what kind of sweat are you wiping. ”

"Y-Am I hot?"

Wei Qing's face was white for a while, and red for a while, white represented fear, and red represented embarrassment, because he was also a rice seller!

Han Yi smiled: "You don't need to be afraid. I'm not going to do that, because the egg hasn't hatched yet, and if it does, the chicken won't hatch, even if I swallow it alone. That's it. Saying that, he stood up and smiled at Gu Yanshang: "Old Gu, please take a seat." Then he said to the merchants, "Sit down." ”

Gu Yanshang's mouth trembled a few times, and finally sat down, what Han Yi said just now was that he didn't have a temper at all, he was afraid from the bottom of his heart.

And the rest of the merchants looked at each other and sat down, and it wasn't until this moment that they understood that Han Yi hadn't taken a real action against them, and how many means he still hadn't used were really unfathomable.

Han Yi came to the middle and said with emotion: "Shinong industry and commerce, Shi is the head, business is the last, the status of businessmen is the most humble, don't look at our lively fighting, but in the eyes of others, it is a group of dogs eating dogs, in fact, everyone is a businessman, it is not easy, why suffer for each other, do you say?" ”

At this point, his tone softened a little.

It is also strange to say, as soon as his tone softened, Wei Qing and the others suddenly felt much more relaxed, and this sentence also resonated with everyone, and they all nodded.

Han Yi said with a smile: "There is a good saying, self-denial with the heart of others, and tolerance of others with the heart of self-tolerance." If you can't accommodate others, then how can you expect others to accommodate you? In fact, the potential of our Datang is huge, and it is bottomless, not to mention one more Han Yi, even if there are another hundred Han Yi, it can also be accommodated, why do you regard me as a thorn in the flesh.

We should make concerted efforts to make this market bigger, let more people do business, let more people get rich, so that there will be more guests, and this guest belongs to everyone, not to a certain person, only more guests, we businessmen can live better, if there are only ten guests, even if they all belong to you, then what? If you want to enrich yourself, you must first be rich and rich country, and if you keep crowding out other merchants, the market will only get smaller and smaller, and you will only become more and more difficult, and you are bringing about your own destruction. ”

As he spoke, he had been paying attention to the faces of Gu Yanshang and the others, and he was slightly disappointed in his heart, because only a few people were moved by his words, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly, this is really a group of guys with a small eye on the mouse, and it seems that he has to use a killer move. He sat down again, took a sip of tea, and said, "Maybe you will think that I am fooling you, but this is not the case, you can continue to find a way to deal with me, I am very welcome, not only that, but I will also help you become stronger." ”

Wei Qing was surprised: "You-you are serious?" ”

"Of course."

Han Yi said with a smile: "First of all, I will not recruit merchants from the two cities to go to North Lane, not only that, but I will also find a way to help you recruit more businessmen to come in, the matter of the night market, I believe you all know, the imperial court will select a group of people to come to the two cities to do business, and at the same time, I will let my drama and good voice come to the two cities to help you attract more guests, not only that, but I will also call on the merchants of our North Lane to contribute money and efforts to help these new businessmen." ”

Everyone was shocked, and Han Yi's generosity was a little unusual.

Gu Yanshang suddenly said: "Brother Han is doing this, I'm afraid it's for his own career, right?" ”

Han Yi laughed and said, "Of course, there are reasons for this, but it is not absolute, so you are narrow-minded." It really makes me feel very relieved, it's so easy to deal with you, why don't you want to think about it, if I pay to help those merchants, then when their business is good and they live a prosperous life. Who are they grateful for? It's not you, Gu Lao, who really think that your hundred-year-old Gu family can be eaten, but I, Han Yi, their hearts will be towards me and towards Beixiang, at that time, I believe that I am definitely qualified to run for the head office of these two cities, and even the businessmen of the two cities support me, why do you still fight with me? ”

"Good! You can say that again! Ramhid said boldly: "Just rely on Brother Han's words." It's not worth this money, Mr. Gu, if you are shy in your pocket, we will go out of North Lane with this money. ”

Qian Dafang's reaction was also very fast, and he smiled: "Wei Qing, didn't you say a few days ago that you didn't have a good time at the end of the year, I see that you don't have any money, and my brother helped you out." ”

When he said this, his heart was refreshed.

Zhao Sijia and Xu Jiu also expressed their willingness to help each other.

Gu Yanshang and the others were embarrassed to hear it. It's just humiliating them.

One of them got up and said, "Brother Han, we are here today." It's also for the sake of the two cities, we don't lack this money, and we don't need your help from North Lane. ”

They all stepped on their faces, but they couldn't bear it.

Several merchants stood up and said excitedly that they didn't need North Lane's help.

Han Yi said: "Don't die here, although I am a newcomer." But after this time, I also saw the virtue of your guild, which was full of intrigue, and I put my words here, this matter of money. You can't figure it out for a month. Saying that, he smiled, pointed at Gu Yanshang, Wei Qing and others, and said: "Look at Gu Lao, look at the shopkeeper Wei, as soon as they heard that they were going to pay money, their faces changed, they either bowed their heads, or pretended to be dumb, if you can rely on it, the sows will go up the tree." ”

Qian Dafang and they laughed when they heard it.

Even Liu E covered her lips and laughed.

The man said excitedly: "Mr. Gu, you are talking!" ”

Wei Qing hurriedly said: "Don't fall for him, he is deliberately provoking us." ”

Qian Dafang said suddenly: "Wei Qing, such a trivial matter, can Brother Han provoke you?" If you don't believe it, I will generously take out a hundred yuan first, which means that I will make up for it if it is missing, and you will definitely not need to pay it. ”

Wei Qing was suddenly stupid, is this still the generous money that doesn't pull out a dime.

Han Yi looked at Wei Qing and smiled: "Shopkeeper Wei, you can't understand it, right?" Alas, I just said earlier, the future market of the rice shop must be the food industry, the money is big, he will take a hundred yuan out today to help those merchants, then people will only go to him to buy rice, how much money will come back, and it is endless, you can't even understand this, you still want to ride on the big head of other people's money, you better go home and take the children. ”

Qian Dafang said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Han, why did you just say it, who are you helping?" ”

Originally, he did deliberately provoke Wei Qing and the others, but now he is really willing to pay this money, if the merchants in the night market buy rice from him, he will really make a fortune.

Those excited factions only felt embarrassed when they heard this, and one of them pointed at Wei Qing and scolded: "You rat-eyed thing, I'm really ashamed to be with you, why don't you go to North Lane." ”

Ramhid haha: "It's simple, because Brother Han is not a man of few eyes." ”

Zhao Sijia and the others laughed again.

Wei Qing is not a person here, shrinking his head, he is about to cry.

"That's it!"

Gu Yanshang suddenly stood up and arched his hand towards Han Yi and said: "Brother Han is right, the old man is indeed too narrow-minded, thank you Brother Han for being able to repay virtue with grievances, the old man is really ashamed, and I also ask Brother Han to accept the old man's gift." ”

Han Yi hurriedly stepped forward to support him and said, "I can't afford this!" As he spoke, he whispered again: "Old Gu, the guild has to have something to do, and this is always interesting, don't you say?" ”

Gu Yanshang looked at Han Yi in horror when he heard this, only to feel a sense of fear lingering in his heart, and a bead of sweat the size of a bean dripped down from his temples.

It wasn't until this moment that he knew that in fact, from the very beginning, he had never escaped from Han Yi's palm, which was really terrifying, which also made him afraid of being an enemy of Han Yi again.

Han Yi whispered again: "But Gu Lao, I have to advise you, what kind of power trick to divide the two factions and create a fight, you can't play it at all, don't do it, what you can do is to try your best to help the businessmen of the two cities and make the two cities more prosperous, only in this way will people believe you, otherwise, you won't be able to do it for long." ”

Gu Yanshang nodded discouragedly and said, "Brother Han's warning, old man keep it in mind. Saying that, he said aloud: "Brother Han, don't worry, our guild will definitely do our best to help with this night market, so we won't bother with them to help." ”

Qian Dafang muttered, "It's not troublesome at all. ”

"That's good."

Han Yi completely ignored Qian Da's words, and said: "I will say a few words now as a special envoy, within three days, I hope to see the guild draw up a plan for the night market, otherwise, I will call on the merchants of North Lane to help you." ”

Qian Dafang still didn't give up, and said: "Wei Qing, don't be reluctant, I think what you said a few days ago is very right, after all, we have made so much money in Beixiang, and the two cities that have been affected should also contribute to the two cities." ”

Zhao Sijia nodded and said, "That's, that's." ”

Han Yi glanced at the two of them and said, "Okay, okay, Datang's voice is such a big deal, aren't you satisfied?" ”

Qian Dafang smiled and was silent.

At this moment, a little scholar suddenly ran in and muttered something in Han Yi's ear.

Han Yi glanced at the little scholar in surprise, and immediately said to Liu E: "Sister Liu, the next thing will be handed over to you, I will go out and have some personal matters." ”

Liu E was concerned: "What's going on?" ”

"It has nothing to do with you, just a little personal matter."

Han Yi said that he was not accompanied by the others, and then left with the little scholar.
