Chapter 125: Jiang Shang's Descendants
Their family turned out to be the Jiang family of "Jiang is still here, there are no taboos", and their ancestors used to be the royal family of Qi State. Later, their family was engaged in business, and they gradually became unrelated to the royal family.
After arriving at the Tian family's Daiqi, the Tian family began to suppress their family. And when it came to her father, he was completely defeated.
Fortunately! At this critical moment, Baekyu helps her father. Give him working capital to help him pay off all his debts. And then! Let him fully transform and not do business that competes with the Tian nobles. If you don't compete with others, grab business, or grab territory, others won't suppress you.
In those days, there wasn't much cash to trade. Bai Gyu helped their family, and it was entirely in exchange for goods. And the goods are free of cost for Bai Gui. It's like this horse business, he is doing business without capital.
He encouraged the steppe people to come to Zhongshan to sell horses, which was actually a partnership in disguise. The same is true for other businesses, encouraging others to partner. Or! Promise others how much profit or what price first, and then give money when the goods are sold, which is equivalent to "selling on behalf of others".
The difference is: Bai Gui does business in a proper manner, his words count, and he does not deceive people. Because of the long time, it has been trusted by countless people. So! He can do this kind of "no-capital business".
This kind of business, if you are not honest, others will not believe you at all. So! There are many people who follow Baekyu's example, but because they can't be trusted by others, they don't do it.
In a word! Bai Gui does all business without capital, and does not need the cost of goods, only the cost of freight.
After the Jiang family was replenished with Bai Gui's goods, the warehouse opened again. A few years later, business was booming again. Unfortunately, both the father-in-law and the mother-in-law became ill and died, leaving only the brother-in-law and his wife.
In order to encourage the brother-in-law, Bai Gyu let the brother-in-law take over the affairs of their family. Outcome! This brother-in-law is used to being given by his father-in-law's family and has a strong rebellious mentality. Don't listen to the words of Baekyu and the shopkeeper (the management team under him), and go against the same tune everywhere. In desperation, for the safety of his family, Bai Gui moved his family out of his father-in-law's house.
Before! My father-in-law's family lives in an old house, and the new house is still under construction. After the brother-in-law took over the family business, he accelerated the construction of the new house. Moreover! Build the new house into a mansion.
In the past, the plan of the old man and Bai Gui was to build the new house into a commercial and residential house. The places along the street are built into shops, some of which are used for their own use, and the other part is used for rent. But after the brother-in-law became the master, he changed the design. He built a fence along the street and gathered all the materials together to create a small three-story building. Don't rent, live by yourself.
During the Warring States period at that time, it was rare to build three-story high-rise buildings that were considered luxurious. Of course! You can't build the level of the king's palace, otherwise you will be guilty of a capital crime. Folk high-rise buildings have folk styles, and the architectural styles are different.
After Bai Gui moved out of Jiang's house, his brother-in-law was even more tormented, he not only opened inns, inns, wine stores, and jewelry stores in various cities of Qi Kingdom, but also opened branches in the capitals of various vassal states in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Outcome! The blind cat bumped into the dead mouse and succeeded.
In fact! It's not that he succeeded, it was Qi Guo who secretly helped him in order to develop spies. The shopkeepers, masters, and men who work in his warehouses, inns and other places are likely to be spies of Qi State. With his inn, inn, etc., the spy has a place to cover his identity. With the strong backing of Qi State, can his business not be hot?
Outcome! This guy got carried away, thinking that he was amazing, and he was even more unpopular. Outcome! Naturally, someone was going to clean him up.
It was meant to be! You are a family that people secretly help each other, what do you say are you arrogant? If people want you to get rich, you can get rich, and if people want you to go bankrupt, it's a matter of minutes.
The more the brother-in-law swaggered, the more worried Baekyu became. But! His wife, Jiang, just didn't understand. Opposite! She thought her brother-in-law was very good. Although she was dissatisfied with some of her brother's practices, she was happy in her heart. After all! The younger brother is still young, only a teenager. Just go through a few more years, and when he grows up, he will mature.
Therefore! If Baekyu said a few more words in front of her, she would not be happy. She thinks that Baekyu is too demanding to demand a minor by the standard of an adult. Even! She also said that Baekyu: I must have done something wrong when I was young.
If a person had not experienced this, he would not have objected so strongly to others making the same mistakes.
So! After many times, Bai Gui didn't bother to talk nonsense, so as not to break down the relationship between husband and wife because of his brother-in-law's affairs. But! For the safety of his wife and children, he still sent a few of his most trusted guards over to protect the safety of the Jiang family.
Before that, there had been dangers. The brother-in-law was open-mouthed and exposed Baekyu's whereabouts and residence, and as a result! almost gave the lives of Bai Gui and the Jiang family. At that time, the response was timely and the move was made, and the disaster was averted. But! Jiang didn't believe it.
"How is that possible? How is that possible? You just won't let me associate with my brother! That's what you mean! You're all jealous of my brother! My brother is so young, so rich and talented! My career is better than my father's, how can he harm me? ”
In order to repay the favor of the white officials, the guards did not bother with the Jiang family. If it was a newcomer, or an irresponsible person, he would definitely not be able to stand Jiang's blame and verbal humiliation.
Things have developed to this point, and Jiang is still unwilling to accept the reality. You forcibly pulled her away, but she cried and said: Linyi is her only brother and the only bloodline of the Jiang family.
In fact! He was the only boy in her father's lineage. In those days, only boys were considered heirs to your surname.
As in some parts of modern society, boys are heirs, girls are heirlooms, not people with your surname. In fact, they are all the same, they are all feudal traditional ideas, and they are all wrong ideas.
Scientifically speaking, inheritance should be determined according to blood lineage (genes). So! Boys and girls are your offspring.
And also! It's not interesting to be overly calculated, hundreds of thousands of years later, the bloodlines have long been fused. Doesn't it seem ignorant to say who he is and who he is the descendant? Isn't it?
It is unreliable to use the surname as the basis. The so-called: mongrels are not mixed castes.
Maybe whoever is the surname of this surname, but not the descendants of this surname. Maybe it's a succession, maybe it's a hug, maybe it's picked up. What's even more slap in the face is that maybe a certain generation of their female ancestors had adulteration with others......
So! In modern society, there are still people who build ancestral halls with surnames, which is a pedantic behavior, a feudal and ignorant behavior, and has no practical significance.
But! From a business perspective, it makes sense for some people.
Because! Some people can raise a large amount of money in the name of building an ancestral hall, and they can make a lot of money from their family. On the surface, the reason is high-sounding, but in fact it is the scum of the family, taking the opportunity to rub oil from the heads of the family relatives.
(Digression: There is a surname in the author's hometown to build an ancestral hall, and the person who raised it used to be a cadre in the village, and then he went down.) When he went to the family with the same surname to raise money for the construction of the ancestral hall, he directly asked others to come up with how much money. The reason is: you have money, and your family is well-developed, so you should take more. There are also fundraisers who directly threaten others: don't take out the money to build an ancestral hall, and don't give you a family genealogy. What's going on? This? The author does not understand! However, the author's family built an ancestral hall voluntarily, and no one came to force you to take the money. And! Girls are also on the score. )
The guards saw that Jiang (Madame Bai) was a bull again, just like her younger brother Linyi, so they had to prepare to come hard and forcibly take it away.
"Take the two babies away first!" The unicorn White Horn commanded.
Because the relationship with my brother-in-law is not very harmonious, so! Bai Gui and Jiang only had two babies, a male baby and a female baby.
"Don't touch my baby! Woooooo Seeing this, Jiang Shi started messing around again. Rushed over and grabbed his baby.
