Chapter 51 Lotus Flowers in the Sun, the Thoughts of the Capital

In Chun'an County, in the forty-first year of Jiajing, a thief named Bai Yutang stole Hai Rui Hai Qingtian's mansion, or his few dilapidated houses with four walls, not only stole things, but also left a note.

As the head of a county, Hai Qingtian was stolen by thieves on his head, how can he bear it? But he could only endure it.

So this matter was not promoted to the court and was not filed, and Hai Rui was busy thinking about it alone, and in the end he didn't have a clue.

On the other side, in the backyard of Xu Wenchang's mansion in Shaoxing, Shen Wuyan was lying on a recliner drinking tea, listening to Li Wan'er reading poems on the side, as if he didn't regard himself as an outsider.

"Don't say it, you're used to drinking Dongting Biluochun, and you're drinking this West Lake Longjing, but it's a taste."

Xu Wenchang, who was sitting on the other side, was flipping through the scroll, and when he heard Shen Wuyan say this, he couldn't help frowning: "Yesterday, you said that the Longjing in West Lake is better than Biluochun in Dongting." ”

"I brought yesterday's tea, and today's Biluochun...... I bought it from the Zhou family's tea house. Shen Wuyan couldn't help but smile: "The tea market is saturated...... In other words, the Zhou family's tea is going to be unsalable. ”

"What is this...... Qi Jiguang fought a few more victories over there, and Liaodong ...... The meaning of the imperial court is not clear now......"

After more than 10 years of war against the Japanese invaders, now almost the Japanese have been driven out of the Ming Dynasty, but there are still a few remnants of the forces wandering in the southeast to make trouble, due to the lack of military salaries, so it has not been able to completely wipe out.

"On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?" Shen Wuyan's eyes flickered, and he said coldly: "Devils must be beaten, and they must not be soft...... I'll figure it out with silver. ”

"It's no problem for you to give out the silver, but it's not a foolproof solution, and now it's not easy for you here, Tan Lun also said, you can't ask you for silver." When he said this, Xu Wenchang was obviously a little hesitant.

After a moment's hesitation, he continued: "It's just that you can't live here without words, and you have to move out tomorrow." ”

Shen Wuyan was stunned, but saw the Zhang family walking over with a burden not far away.

Xu Wenchang smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "The house was sold, and it was exchanged for a few thousand taels of silver, some of which were sent to Qi Jiguang, and some of which were ...... Preparing to go to the capital for a job...... Go to Li Chunfang's house. ”

"It's decided?" Shen Wuyan couldn't help but glance at the mansion, and then looked at the Zhang family with a firm gaze and a big belly, and couldn't help but sigh for the husband and wife, but to no avail.

I'm in a mess now, and it's a joke to say that I'm going to help others.

"I wanted to wait for Yueru to give birth to the child...... I'm afraid I can't wait, and Governor Hu doesn't know what to do...... Li Chunfang is Yuwang's person, and he hopes to have some turnaround. ”

Saying this, Li Wan'er was a little stunned, and when she understood the reason, she couldn't help but burst into tears, and hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Zhang's sleeve, unable to speak for a long time.

"When you settle down there, remember to write back."

Shen Wuyan knew what Xu Wenchang had decided, and it was useless to persuade him, so he could only say goodbye, and then silently blessed in his heart, hoping that everything would be fine, although the future was very terrible and the future was bleak.

Xu Wenchang probably also knew this, and there was some helplessness in his eyes, Xu was still worried about Hu Zongxian's affairs, and he was full of expectations for the war on the southeast battlefield.

"If the Japanese are not extinguished, why should they be at home."

With a faint smile, Xu Wenchang patted Shen Wuyan's shoulder and said with a smile: "I have time to see Shaoqing, I have been cautious for decades, but it is because you ...... Just broke the rules. ”

"We're neighbors, and we've seen everything we want, but you're ...... The capital is so far away...... By the way, I still have a house in the capital, and Wang Shizhen lives there now. ”

"That's it, Wang Shizhen and Yan Song have a lot of hatred...... How can he let me? Xu Wenchang waved his hand, got up and walked towards the front yard.

"I'll prepare today's food and drink...... Yueru and Wan'er went to sit in the house and went to buy wine without saying a word. ”

……

So in the summer of this June, Xu Wenchang went to the capital, looking at the boats on the lake, Shen Wuyan couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, his eyelids had already jumped for a long time, and he couldn't stop it.

"After we're done here, let's go to the capital to have fun?" Shen Wuyan hugged Li Wan'er tightly in his arms and said with a smile: "There is a restaurant in the capital called Yueyun Restaurant...... There is also a national eunuch, and the old stubbornness in it is actually quite good. ”

Listening to Shen Wuyan's words, Li Wan'er nodded lightly, he could feel that Shen Wuyan seemed to have something on his mind, but he didn't want to guess: "Xianggong said that Mr. Wenchang will they still go back to Shaoxing?" ”

Shen Wuyan sighed, he didn't say anything for a long time, and he didn't know that Xu Wen was going to be a good man, I was afraid that the Blue Immortal couldn't do anything, otherwise he wouldn't have been killed privately by Yan Shifan.

"Wealth is in heaven...... Let's go back to Hangzhou. ”

Now that Li Xingchang is in Hangzhou, assisted by Shopkeeper Liu and Shen Wuliang, in fact, everything can be handled, but Suzhou is the weakest place, but Shen Wuyan still went to Hangzhou.

Xingbake is now in Hangzhou only silk Zhuang embroidery village, and the 300,000 taels of silver were also transported to the Xingbake house in the early morning.

Approaching the meeting hall, it was already full of people, Li Xingchang looked indifferently at these shopkeepers who had greeted him cordially yesterday, and it was a little funny that he was so afraid today.

"Actually, you don't have to be like this, I was arranged by Shopkeeper Shen to help, and I'm actually the same as you......"

Hearing this, those shopkeepers didn't think so, and one of the shopkeepers, who had always been bolder, hurriedly said: "You are a famous person in Suzhou...... We...... Besides, you're Childe's father-in-law. ”

"So what?" Li Xingchang smiled bitterly: "It's not that the Li family has taken up the position, so I can only rely on a wordless relationship to come to him to get an errand." ”

The reason why Li Xingchang was arranged in these shopkeepers was because Li Xingchang had always been good at dealing with people, that is, he could coax people. Now is the time when people's hearts are unstable, so that they can be brought together.

In fact, Hangzhou's arrangement is very ingenious, Shen Wuliang is good at scheming and calculating, so he often arranges him to do some private activities, and Liu is good at management, so he let him lead the business in Hangzhou.

For the modern set of management thinking, although Shen Wuyan is not profoundly studied, it is not bad to take it out at this time, at least he still understands the truth of making the best use of things and making the best use of talents.

Instead of entering the council chamber, I went around to the back hall and could hear the voices in front of me.

Li Xingchang continued to smile: "This time, I also brought some silver from the Li family, and now it has been handed over to Shopkeeper Liu...... I think I'll be able to get through this in the future. ”

In fact, these shopkeepers are waiting for Li Xingchang's words, and now the situation is already obvious, the Xing Bake family resists the offensive of the three families, if there is the support of the Li family, there is hope for this matter.

As soon as the Li family came to it, they were originally a big family, and their family background was absolutely unimaginable. Second, the Li family is now an imperial businessman, and it is said that Li Xingchang single-handedly contributed to it, and his own ability cannot be ignored.

Shopkeeper Liu, who had not spoken for a long time, also said slowly at this time: "I sold Sangtian, and now I have 300,000 taels of silver...... The shopkeepers don't need to worry at all, and the wages are still paid. ”

Today's purpose is to stabilize the mood of these shopkeepers, although it has improved a little after Shen Wuyan's education before, but since it is a big slap, of course, it is necessary to give some benefits to convince the public, so there is today's discussion.

The effect is not bad, at least Shen Wuyan, who is sitting behind the barrier, can feel that the hearts of these shopkeepers have returned to the awakening eight guests.

After sending these shopkeepers away, Shen Wuyan walked out from behind the screen, saluted Li Xingchang, and sighed slightly: "I didn't want to disturb my father, but I ...... It's still a bit difficult. ”

"How much silver is missing?" Li Xingchang hurriedly waved his hand.

Shen Wuyan sighed: "At least one million taels of silver are needed." ”

"It accounts for almost 10% of the annual taxes of the Ming Dynasty...... Not really. Li Xingchang took a deep breath.

Shen Wuyan nodded: "I said before that the Zhou family had at least three million taels of silver...... In fact, it's not so much, I think it's a total of three families, there are so many, but the eight guests are now out of money. ”

"That's right, so what are you going to do?" Li Xingchang sighed bitterly.

"Wait for Yuelou to withdraw from this matter...... By the way, do you know that there is a person named Bai Yutang? ”

Li Xingchang couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Bai Yutang...... Who is this? Is it the shopkeeper of Deyue Tower? How could Deyue Lou quit so easily, his benefit was the dozens of restaurants in your Shen family. ”

"Sangtian can be sold because the primary industry is too tired, but the restaurant and the silk village teahouse have to be kept, both of which are big profits, and only these places can get silver from the rich merchants of Jiangsu and Zhejiang."

Speaking of this, Shen Wuyan couldn't help laughing: "Speaking of things that even the imperial court can't do, I have done it." ”

Li Xingchang knew what he was referring to, now Jiangnan is rich and prosperous, and there are many wealthy merchants, but the taxes are decreasing year by year, and the imperial court can't collect money from these rich merchants at all.

"It's the people of the court who offend without words...... Can't tell who it is? ”

This is a matter of concern to everyone, including Shopkeeper Liu Yue'er, and the people who can see through the essence of this matter.

They could all see that behind this matter would definitely not be as simple as what they saw in front of them, and the three big families joined forces to deal with Shen Wuyan...... Not at all.

"The court is short of silver, so it naturally wants to make a fortune from these people...... But he didn't offend anyone, he just gave someone some benefits, let him sing a good show, and use this good show to kill someone and grab some money to confiscate it. ”

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Li Xingchang probably understood a little, nodded slightly, and sighed bitterly: "I'm afraid that the person who gave the benefit also had some heads and rats during the period...... Now it seems that there is a certain certainty of speechlessness. ”

"Are you sure...... I still have to wait for Bai Yutang to come back. Shen Wuyan glanced out of the gate and chuckled.
