The tender continued, and no one dared to make trouble anymore.

The people of the Chengguo Mansion were forcibly expelled, and no one dared to make trouble at this time. Although there are many people who are unhappy, these people are all well-informed, and the Duke of Wei was reprimanded by order a while ago, and these people know a little bit of the inside story.

Everyone came all the way to Jiangyin just to seek wealth.

Since it is useless to spell dad and fight backstage, you can only act according to the rules.

Besides, the people who can really speak are in the backyard, they are just small minions who do specific things, if they are kicked out for their own reasons, or even disqualified from bidding, the consequences are not something they can afford.

As for the unlucky man who was kicked out of the Chengguo Mansion, most of the end was not much better.

Even if Cheng Guogong will find trouble with Li Chuan after receiving the news, at least he must first clean up the house slave who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures, after all, Cheng Guogong can send people, which means that he will also abide by the rules.

Li Chuan went to the backyard and continued to deal with those shopkeepers.

To his surprise, merchants from Shanxi also came.

"In Xia Fan Yongnian!"

The middle-aged man who introduced himself was very humble, he had a kind smile on his face when he saw everyone, he was dressed in a green cloth shirt, and he didn't have the style of a wealthy businessman at all.

"Shanxi Fan's family?"

Li Chuan looked at the other party, and his tone was not very friendly.

He has no opinion on Shanxi people, and he is a Shanxi person, but he has no good impression of the Jin merchants in the late Ming Dynasty, and because he himself is a Shanxi person, he has a kind of skin hatred for these Jin merchants, especially Han people, how can he sell the country!

History has proven that once a foreigner is allowed to dominate the Central Plains, the Han people will become slaves of the alien.

Good people don't do it, they have to be dogs.

Of course, everyone likes gold and silver wealth, but is it really good to be a slave for the sake of wealth?

"Exactly!"

Fan Yongnian smiled, did not get angry, and said: "I, Fan's businessman, am kind to others, and I think I have never had a grudge with Lord Li, but I don't know why Lord Li has an opinion on my Shanxi businessman and cancels our bidding qualifications?" ”

Li Chuan said meaningfully: "I really want to know? ”

Fan Yongnian still smiled and said, "I wish to hear about it." ”

Li Chuan said: "If you want to take my goods, you can do it, when Shanxi merchants don't sell weapons and grain to Jiannu, and Shanxi merchants are allowed to sell Western goods, I don't know if Mr. Fan can do it?" ”

Fan Yongnian's face changed drastically, and he forced a smile: "Lord Li, don't be joking. ”

"Who was kidding you?"

Knowing that he would be risking saying these words, he couldn't help but say it.

Li Chuan felt that he was a little angry, this kind of character was not born to be an official, but fortunately, he had never dreamed of being a very human minister, so he didn't care, stared at Fan Yongnian and said: "Where did Jiannu's iron tools and grain come from, and how did the gold and silver goods looted from Daming over the years become food weapons, don't tell me you don't know." ”

The people around him were all calm and not surprised at all.

The trade between the Jin merchants and the Cypriot foreign countries is not a secret, but everyone knows it.

As for selling iron and grain to Jiannu, the wealthy merchants in the south of the Yangtze River have also heard that there is no impermeable wall in this world, maybe only the high walls in Zijing City can't blow the wind, and only Emperor Chongzhen is deaf.

Fan Yongnian sank his face, his gentle smile was gone, his eyes were very sharp, and he stared at Li Chuan and said: "My Fan family makes a living by selling salt, and they are doing right and sitting at the end, and they have made great contributions to the transportation of grain and grass for the imperial court, how can they be slandered." ”

"You know it in your own heart if you do it or not."

Li Chuan didn't bother to say more, and waved his hand impatiently: "Get out, Li doesn't welcome Shanxi businessmen." ”

Fan Yongnian stared at him several times, but he didn't say a cruel word, but put on a gentle smile again, said hello to a few familiar businessmen, and then left calmly.

Several businessmen were all thoughtful, and they didn't know what thoughts were turning.

Wan Youqing came up and said, "We and other businessmen just need to be angry and make money, Brother Li has taken care of it." The power of the Jin merchants should not be underestimated, and the Jin merchants are very united, and there are also friends in the DPRK and China, so it is really no good to offend them. ”

"Can they bite me?"

Li Chuan said disdainfully: "I don't rely on Jin merchants to get promoted, and I don't rely on Jin merchants to make a fortune, a group of fatherless and motherless beasts can even do such a thing as betraying the country, do you want me to greet them with a smile?" ”

"This ......"

Wan Youqing wiped his sweat and said, "Brother Li is cautious. ”

Li Chuan said disapprerovingly: "Could it be that I can't say what those Shanxi businessmen did?" Don't say that you don't know that those Shanxi merchants sold stolen goods to Jiannu, and sold grain and iron tools to Jiannu. ”

Wan Youqing sighed and said: "You know this kind of thing, you can do it, why do you need to say it to offend people, anyway, it is not our turn to worry about the affairs of the imperial court, just make money and live our own lives, and naturally someone will worry about national affairs." ”

The implication is that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuchs are in a hurry.

Li Chuan stared at him and said, "Don't tell me that you also sold grain and iron tools to Jiannu. ”

"No, absolutely not!"

Hearing that Li Chuan's tone was not good, Wan Youqing hurriedly said: "Although I don't want to meddle in my affairs, I still won't do this kind of thing as a capital enemy, Brother Li, don't get me wrong, Wan has never done business with Jiannu." ”

Li Chuan smiled and said: "Brother Wan don't have to be nervous, you still believe in your character." ”

But they sneered in their hearts, this Ming businessman doesn't have a few good things, the country is in their hearts, in fact, they don't have any concept at all, whether it is a bureaucrat or a businessman, for the sake of interests, there is nothing they dare not do.

Shanxi businessmen should be killed, but how good can these Jiangnan businessmen be.

As far as he knew, the Zheng family in Fujian had business dealings with Jiannu.

Li Chuan believed that as long as there was an opportunity, most of the people surnamed Wan would sell grain and iron tools to the Manchus.

It is said that the literati of the Han and Tang dynasties were very temperamental, regarded barbarians as pigs and dogs, and maintained the orthodox concept of the Han people, which has been thoroughly integrated into the bones, even if there are occasional exceptions, it is just an example, and it does not affect the integrity of the Han nation.

But when it came to the Ming Dynasty, what kind of people were educated by Confucianism.

Without the slightest sense of statehood, and they are accustomed to betraying the country to their capitalists, is there any hope for such a nation?

Li Chuan felt a little sad, if he was the emperor, he would definitely kill those Shanxi merchants.

It stands to reason that as a modern person, he has sung about fifty-six nationalities since he was a child, and he grew up in fifty-six parents, so he should not have such extreme emotions, but Li Chuan still feels sad for the Han nation, perhaps from the perspective of stocks, he is a nationalist.
