"This is the shopkeeper of Chu, who is in charge of the silk cloth business of the Zhao family in Suzhou, and is also the chief shopkeeper of the cloth village. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The shopkeeper of Chu, who was much older than Chen Zhongqing, bowed his hand to the young man, looking at the wandering eyes with a shrewd look, he smiled slightly, and said with the shrewdness and eight-sided exquisiteness of a businessman, "I have heard the reputation of a great talent for a long time, and when I saw it today, I really deserved its reputation, and I have to ask the Chen family to take care of it in Bianliang in the future." ”

The meaning of Qin Zhengxi's words is already very obvious, in order to win over the relationship with the Chen family, the Qin family even did not hesitate to open a cloth shop in Bianliang to expand their relationship network, so that it is not a subordinate relationship of giving gifts during the New Year's holidays, but directly rises to the Chen family's interest cooperation alliance.

Chen Zhongqing regards the Qin family as the cash cow behind the Chen family, and the Qin family also regards the Chen family as the most powerful backer behind it.

Chen Zhongqing also said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Chu, look up for a long time." ”

Qin Zhengxi seemed to realize that there was one person missing, and asked suspiciously, "Where is the shopkeeper Tai?" Didn't I tell the six of you to come over? How is he missing? ”

Shopkeeper Chu scratched his nose in embarrassment and said, "Shopkeeper Tai said that there was still something in the store, and then left in a panic. I don't know why. ”

"Hmph."

Qin Zhengxi's face was displeased, and he sharply accused, "If it weren't for the sake of the second room, I would have kicked him out a long time ago, what the hell, I don't know how to work well all day long." This kind of person can sit in the position of the shopkeeper, which is simply a shame for the Qin family. ”

In the face of Qin Zhengxi's scolding, Shopkeeper Chu had no choice but to lower his head and dare not say a word. However, he did not continue to dwell on the topic.

The next few shopkeepers have introduced them one by one, they are basically the backbone of the Qin family, and they are responsible for the important positions of the cloth trading house, Qin Zhengxi introduced these people to his purpose is also to have further plans in Bianliang in the future, businessmen always plan to maximize their interests, Qin Zhengxi as a cloth merchant naturally wants to climb to the position of a man.

After introducing them one by one, Chen Zhongqing finally planned to throw out another purpose of his trip, that is, about the Qin family's concubine. whispered, "Qin family master, there is a sentence below that I don't know whether to say or not?" ”

"It doesn't hurt to say anything."

said so, but Qin Zhengxi still waved his hand to let a few shopkeepers retreat, and they also understood that they found an excuse and quit the door one after another.

At this time, there were only one old and one young left in the hall, Chen Zhongqing looked at him, thought for a while before he hesitated, "I heard that the Qin family is preparing to take a concubine recently?" ”

As soon as the words came out, Qin Zhengxi's face instantly became embarrassed, he coughed a few times, and quietly sighed and said, "It seems that the outside world has been rumored?" ”

Chen Zhongqing nodded.

The old man is over half a hundred years old, and he can't do such a thing as a concubine, and he is afraid of people laughing at it. It was only after Qin's uncompetitive younger brother was obsessed with his mind that he stared at Xiao Yan on the rouge list, and he had this ridiculous idea, and said that he would smash more than 100,000 taels of silver to take her home to the golden house to hide Jiaojiao, hey, although Qin is a businessman, he still cherishes his reputation like gold, and where can the Qin family's face be put when this matter is spread. ”

From Qin Zhengxi's words, it can be heard that the head of the Qin family does not agree with such a ridiculous thing. also made Chen Zhongqing see a glimmer of hope.

"Then the head of the Qin family can refuse?"

"Alas, Gongzi Zhongqing, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. If everything could be as light as you say, I wouldn't have to have a headache. ”

Qin Zhengxi sighed, his expression was depressed, and he was a little sad and angry at his younger brother, but he was helpless, "The Qin family has a big business, and the business is not necessarily in Qin's hands, when my father divided the business into two, the situation in the second room of the cloth business is the same, the Qin family is powerful, and the internal interests are also complicated, but on the premise of not touching the conflict of interests, I can only sweep the snow in front of the door, and I can't manage this kind of thing." Or would I let him waste his money like this? Hundreds of thousands of taels to marry a canary, it is better to use this money to open an extra cloth shop. ”

Chen Zhongqing nodded, saying that he understood the other party's hardships, not that he didn't want to manage it, but that he couldn't manage it at all. The Qin family's business is bigger, and disputes naturally come, but even as the head of the family, some things can only be turned a blind eye and pretend not to be seen. But Qin Zhengxi scoffed at this kind of thing and thought it was insulting.

"What if I can get Old Qin's brother-in-law to give up this idea?"

Chen Zhongqing blinked his eyes and hinted at the other party, "But you need Elder Qin's cooperation to act in a play." ”

Qin Zhengxi's eyes lit up, since Chen Zhongqing was willing to help him solve this problem, he naturally agreed generously, "If Zhongqing's son can help solve this problem, I am very grateful." I don't know how to get him to give up the idea of taking a concubine? ”

At this time, Chen Zhongqing finally threw out his carefully prepared plan, and he said to Qin Zhengxi, who had a sad face, "The Qin family shouldn't go against the official family of Bianliang for a woman, right?" What if the two Zhejiang roads that went to Bianliang to take office made the adults fall in love with Xiaoyan and want to be their canary? Do you dare to go against the Chen family? ”

Moving out of his brother's name to oppress people, the Qin family didn't dare to mess around, not to mention that Chen Zhongxu is a hot celebrity in Bianliang officialdom now, and he will also be a powerful magnate in the future, Qin Zhusheng is just a businessman, no matter how messy he is, he can't fight a powerful minister.

Qin Zhengxi's expression slowly became solemn, this plan is to suppress people with power, in order to keep his reputation, he doesn't have much opinion, but his younger brother Qin Zhusheng is not necessarily, no one knows if there will be an accident, if he is resolute and uncompromising, will he still take the Qin family?

Chen Zhongqing said seductively, "Anyway, the head of the Qin family can let him meet with me, and I will know the rest, anyway, the second room of the Qin family will not turn against our Chen family for a geisha, right?" After all, it is they who have the most to lose. If they agree, just make an exchange. ”

The merchant is very profitable, Chen Zhongqing grasped this point tightly, and in the end, Qin Zhengxi just nodded, called the servant into the hall, and told him to call his younger brother Qin Zhusheng over.

At this time, Qin Zhengxi still had a trace of suspicion, and asked hesitantly, "Gongzi Zhongqing, can this plan work?" ”

"Of course it works."

Chen Zhongqing nodded confidently, but did not tell Qin Zhengxi that he had another hand.

Xiaozhi is just a foreshadowing of the first salute and then the soldiers.

Now comes the main part.

"But why is Gongzi Zhongqing so concerned about this matter?"

"It's nothing, it's just a matter of being trusted."
