Chapter 305 Sincerity from the Imperial Court

The real gate valve in the northern Han nationality is the Shandong Gaomen represented by Cui, Zheng, Lu and Wang, and their capital that can be prominent and prosperous for a long time is not the family, but the natural advantage accumulated by the lofty cultural cultivation.

And the creator of this advantage, first of all, comes from the intentional promotion of the Zhuansun family, because of the appearance of Li Zhi, Lu Yu has realized that there was the deceased husband of the ancestor before, and now there is the son-in-law of the Zhuansun family, Shandong Gaomen will usher in another development opportunity.

"If the Shandong clan wants not to fall into the hands of others, develop the economy and expand its commercial power, it is the most effective self-protection. Mr. Li, on this point, our four major families of Cui, Zheng, Lu and Wang have been fully aware of this point, and we hope that the opportunity for such in-depth negotiations between us will always be maintained! ”

Since it is related to the future Shandong Gaomen issue, it is not up to Li Zhilai to take charge at this time, and there is still an old ancestor at present, so he put the responsibility on the Zhensun family in a few words.

It's not that he is too slippery, all kinds of intricate relationships, it is still necessary to understand clearly, Li Zhi helped them like this, it was for the sake of the face of the grandson family and the ancestors, but no matter how great the credit was, he couldn't do anything on behalf of the people.

The old ancestor smiled: "You are the son-in-law of the Zhuan Sun family, and you are also a member of the Zhuan Sun family, why can't you speak for you?" ”

"Just like the inheritance problem in Li Tang's bloodline, some things can be covered up in a word if they are not within their ability, no matter how strong his surname is for the younger generations, there must always be a strict qualification framework, and it is strictly forbidden to go beyond his duty and do his own thing, which is a matter of principle!"

Li Zhiyan stopped talking, and turned to Lu Yu and the other visitors, "I'm afraid that I will have to rush to work overnight tonight, so the little nephew will take a step back first, and Yu Ran will stay here on behalf of me and Zhengqing Wenqitang, she can decide what she can do!" Anyway, a few elders will stay for a few more days, and they will also go to my store tomorrow to have a look, so that they can bring back the new business situation in Chang'an City and tell my brothers and sisters about it! ”

He did have to make snuff overnight, and without it, the snuff bottle would not be able to be sold no matter how beautiful it was, and even if it was limited, it would not be optimistic.

On the way back, Qingqi told him about Princess Taiping's thoughts, and he shook his head happily, "I deliberately avoided her at night, in fact, she also knows this reason, the colored diamond that can be regarded as a national treasure can not be taken down by simply gold and silver, and it will only be a mutual fight when they meet, as long as one of them proposes to exchange conditions is rich enough, there is a sense of interview." ”

"You're not afraid of offending Princess Taiping because of this? That man is not a man of good heart! ”

"So what? In fact, both parties know that this matter is a completely public transaction, and the gains outweigh the losses if too many private opinions are mixed in! After all, I have contributed a lot to the imperial court, and then forcibly occupy the treasures in the business of Zhengqing Wenqitang, I am afraid that Li Tang will become the laughing stock of the world from now on, and his disdainful name will remain forever. ”

"But this matter is related to the face of the Tang Dynasty, Yiyi has analyzed it for me, once the imperial court is bound to get the idea that it cannot be done, and the colored diamonds will be left in other places, it will be an insult to the dignity of the Tang Dynasty!"

"So, we're not in a hurry, it's them who are on fire. This matter is very big, even if Princess Taiping is the same status, she does not dare to rob the public and private affairs in the middle. In fact, they are too worried, as long as a relatively favorable condition is formulated in advance, I am naturally happy to negotiate this matter, at least sincerely put it out for us to see. In fact, how dare I sell it behind the back of the imperial court? The so-called emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry, from the source, I am afraid that it comes from their current mentality! ”

The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry, it is a palace anecdote that became popular in the Qing Dynasty in later generations, of course Qingqi will not know, but obviously she is not in this mood at this time:

"To tell you the truth, what you plan in your heart, always let our own family know."

"I have any specific plans, it's just to see how they quid pro quo and then make a trade-off. If I have a personal opinion, of course, I hope to get commercial land in prosperous areas, but I know that there is no operational possibility of commercial land in the east and west cities, and many replaceable locations are uncertain. ”

"I know what you think in your heart, but I also advise you, dealing with the court is appropriate, but you can't be open-mouthed, greed is too obvious!"

Li Zhi laughed, "Qingqi, in fact, you made a common sense mistake like them, and you all took this matter as negative. So far I don't know anything about their conditions, so wouldn't it be a harp to force me to show sincerity? Besides, they don't know, you don't know, we have better diamonds in our hands? ”

"In short, I'm just reminding you to accept it when you see it, don't try to get involved in more benefits!"

"Qingqi, if you give a hundred taels of gold and a yellow bird to a baby, he will definitely want a yellow bird; Give the harmony and a hundred taels of gold to a vulgar man, and he will take the gold; Give the sage the best of harmony and the wise sayings about morality to the sage, and the sage will take the best words. The more profound a man's knowledge is, the more subtle his choices become. Those who can only see dross will only get dross. I mean, treasures that transcend the material plane are the easiest to reveal the most real side of the people involved, and I do intend to use this object to verify some people's judgments, and I hope to return their judgments to me! ”

"In other words, you are secretly observing the state, and you also know that someone will be using it to observe you?"

Li Zhi is very satisfied with Qingqi's understanding, "In today's society, some people can't resist the temptation and can't stick to their nature, and they are psychologically unbalanced in the face of materialism, which is because morality has not yet reached this state." I don't think I have much of a noble character and realm integrity, I just want to use this to show that I am obsessed with being a person rather than a businessman. Although Princess Taiping is young, but as she grows older, it will only show more and more her noble nature, since her biological mother thinks that this person is the most similar to her when she was young, it has already shown the inevitability of this person's political ambitions in the future, and use this matter to whitewash my fierce loyalty to the court, and get it without mistake, why not! ”

"Hahahaha, Sister Qingqi, do you understand?" Pang Qi, who had not interjected, laughed loudly, "Brother Zhengwen does things, every step is considered far, his brain, we still have a lot to learn!" ”

"Why didn't you see it when you were a child, you still have this Tedo flower intestines?" Qingqi said with some hatred.

"People always have to grow, and it's true that I'm a little careful, but I've never used it for my own family! Besides, if you step into the business industry, you don't have any thoughts, and you will be swallowed up by people long ago? Li Zhi pretended to be aggrieved.

Laughing all the way, the three of them went their own way back to Zhengqingtang, Chunrou and the others didn't go out with them in the past few days, and stayed at home to arrange all the trivial matters related to winemaking.

At this time, seeing the return of the master, he was naturally busy again, and he supervised the two of them to practice the seven steps of Ling Xuan, and he was reluctant to ask his own woman to learn some fighting techniques, but the skills of escape could not be ignored.

After that, he politely declined the second daughter's plan to help him make snuff together, and after Yu Ran returned, he sent them to take a bath and sleep, and then stayed alone in another room to stay up late to make it.

Now Li Zhi will not be stingy with the loss of true qi, and he has found that the process of replenishing the true qi after exhaustion is also another way to improve his own strength.

There was Shi Yuan liquid that could be replenished at any time, which made him more and more unscrupulous, so overnight, he actually broke the record and made hundreds of catties.

Business was still booming the next day, and many people who got the news came, especially snuff bottles, because Gaozong consciously advertised him for a live job, and at this time, the Manchu civil and military people all regarded it as an example.

Moreover, snuff does have its unique medicinal value, that is, the king of Ming, who never follows the trend, regards snuff as an excellent thing, and other civil and military ministers will of course flock to it.

And because the ministers influenced their respective subordinates, layer by layer, and because of the scarcity of snuff bottles, the tide in Chang'an City rose in a very short time.

Therefore, Li Zhi in today's ushered in a rush to buy such goods, and the snuff he made overnight was sold out again in one morning, and he had no choice but to disappear frequently since the afternoon to remake the tobacco paste.

Last night's guests, sure enough, came to the east and west markets early in the morning to investigate, and saw the real hot rush scene, they really realized the reason why Zhengqing Wenqitang has such a high turnover.

For the goods under Li's name, these people have made up their minds to seriously participate, otherwise once the situation is slightly behind, they will lose countless gold and silver.

Feng Xing came early in the morning to report the good news, Li Zhi secretly instigated the scalper behavior yesterday is indeed good, the clerks once again put forward the back door needs of those people, obviously the big sale of the scalper, destined to be the magic of the earlier royal word color note.

With Li Zhi's ability to explore, he heard the clerks talking behind his back, and the central idea was without exception, and they were all amazed by the godliness of the owner's business methods.

Li Zhi didn't deliberately make such a snooping act, just because the number of people coming and going was too large, and the store was full of expensive goods, this kind of caution was reasonable, at least he didn't feel anything uncomfortable psychologically.

For a whole day, all the forces close to Li Zhi on weekdays came, and those who temporarily decided to stay to help were also some of their own people.

People with extremely high status, such as Guan Ming and Li Yu, are of course not good at staying in the public and doing some work to serve people, but they also keep people so that they can be assigned by Li Zhi.

Chunrou and other eight women also came to the store to help, with them, the three daughters of Qingqi also had time to check back and forth between the two cities, and after more than half of the afternoon, because they saw that Li Yiren was no longer busy with the production of snuff, the three girls simply stayed in a room on the second floor to concentrate on refining tobacco paste.

The busyness of the day passed in a hurry in the crowding, and in the evening, Princess Taiping also officially came to the door and asked Li Zhi for an exchange of conditions.

Li Zhi smiled and listened to the plan put forward by the relevant departments, which was obviously the result of their intensive discussion for a day.

As he deduced before, as smart as Princess Taiping, she also understood her inner meaning in one night, and showing sincerity is the key.

Therefore, the plans that these people came up with are also full of sincerity.

The content includes the replacement of several treasures in the palace, since Li Zhi regards the colored diamonds as the treasure of the town, the purpose is to use this thing to enhance the fame of Zhengqing Wenqitang, those few rare things that can also be called treasures have the effect of continuing to increase their influence.

In addition, it is adjacent to the previous Taiping Princess Mansion, which is also a royal mansion that covers an area of one square, and this square is not a real square covering an area of fifty-five hectares, but after Tang Gaozong suppressed the power of the kings, no one dared to occupy the entire square.

At this time, a square was a corner of 55 hectares after 16 equal parts, and at that time, one hectare was equivalent to 15 acres, and now there are more than 50 acres of a square.

Although the giant diamond is a priceless treasure, with such a large land in the city, including a three-story small palace-style mansion with ground buildings, Li Zhi is actually very satisfied, after all, it is not easy to sell the giant diamond.

Unexpectedly, there were many other additional bits and pieces in the exchange conditions they proposed, which made Li Zhi feel a little surprised.
