Chapter 313: Some People Are Happy and Some Are Worried (3)
The fourth master's temper has never been good, and it can even be said that he is a little nervous and cold, and he can't be generous, as soon as he let out such a heavy sigh, Dai Duo, who has always been known for his daring to speak, didn't dare to ask anymore, as for Honghui, Liyin and others who stayed on the side, they were even more silent, no one dared to touch the mold of the fourth master at this time, and the huge study immediately became strangely quiet, so quiet that even if a needle fell to the ground, it could be heard clearly.
"There is nothing in the world, and all troubles are self-founded."
In the dead silence, a slightly hoarse voice sounded suddenly, reciting a Buddhist verse, but the person who spoke out was neither a master of Wenjue who was superb in Buddhism, nor a dog meat monk, but Wu Sidao with an indifferent face.
"Huh?"
Wu Sidao's words were obviously ridiculing the fourth master's self-seeking troubles, and the people in the room were all surprised, even the fourth master frowned, and after snorting heavily, his eyes were already sharp as a knife and swept over, and when he saw that the person who spoke out was Wu Sidao, the fourth master's face couldn't help but stiffen, but the words of reprimand could no longer be spoken, even if he was suffocated, his face was red.
"Why did Brother Wang Lu (Wu Sidao's character) say this?"
If the master is not easy to say, he should be a slave, such a consciousness, Dai Duo is obviously not lacking, this time seeing that the fourth master was suffocated, how could Dai Duo dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked a question from the side.
"The One Who is here, the Lord of the Holy Knowledge, who is also going to do what he intends to do, how can he allow others to destroy it secretly, even if he succeeds for a while, it is only digging his own grave."
Wu Sidao obviously guessed where the fourth master's mind was, but he didn't say it directly, but smiled coldly, and pointed out the key point meaningfully.
"This ......, is what Brother Wang Lu is talking about the Eight Banners firm?"
Dai Duo also belongs to the level of a wise man, his mind is very quick, and he has already understood what Wu Sidao means after a little thought, but he is not completely sure, so he hesitates to ask.
"Well, the Eight Banners business is greatly beneficial to the Eight Banners, there is no doubt about this, otherwise, the Holy One will never approve Qing Baylor's request, however, it seems that where this huge profit is, the flies and dogs attracted are afraid that there are not many people, with the wisdom of the Holy One, how can they not be guarded, hey, not to mention those who are interested in the heart, even Qing Baylor, the initiator, is afraid that he is also on the list of the Holy Guard, whoever dares to reach inside, I am afraid that they will have to be ready to cut off their hands."
Wu Sidao smiled solemnly, explained the strangeness in detail, and clearly warned the fourth master not to interfere indiscriminately in the Eight Banners firm, so as not to cause trouble, although the words were not very polite, but the reason was analyzed thoroughly.
"Since Mr. Wu said so, there will be no falsehood, with Xiao Wang's understanding of Hongqing Xiao'er, he may not be able to see that Huang Ama cares about the Eight Banners firm, and it is even more difficult for him to monopolize the power to buy people's hearts, if so, why is he willing to give up such a huge profit?"
The fourth master did have the intention of secretly hindering the Eight Banners business, and he had to do something in the business at the worst, so as not to be monopolized by the third master, but at this time, seeing that Wu Sidao said that the consequences were so serious, he didn't dare to think about those unrealistic small calculations anymore, but he was suspicious of Hongqing's such generous and profitable behavior, so he couldn't help but interrupt from the side.
"It's hard to say, this son has never acted according to common sense, and he will know the root cause over time, however, no matter what his intentions are, the prince must not meddle in this matter, whether it is successful or defeated, others will stir it up, and the prince just sits and watches the wind and clouds."
Since the rumor of the Eight Banners business came out, Wu Sidao has not known how many times he has deduced, he has seen the emperor's thoughts, he has seen it thoroughly, but when it comes to what Hongqing wants, Wu Sidao is puzzled, not that Wu Sidao can calculate, but his vision is only limited to such a small pool in the Qing Dynasty, and it is impossible to be as long-term as Hongqing can see, this is the limit of vision, but it is not a high IQ can be deduced. Instead, he bluntly said that he couldn't see it, but he didn't forget to remind the fourth master again.
"Mr. is saying that the eighth brother will ......"
As soon as he heard Wu Sidao, he couldn't figure out Hongqing's intentions, and the fourth master couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he didn't dwell on this matter anymore, but was attracted by Wu Sidao's later judgment, so he tentatively asked half of the words.
"Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, even if the eighth master does not move, how can the servants under him be willing to stop, and when it comes to the end, the eighth master will definitely have to be involved in the game, and at that time, the fourth master might as well follow the big flow."
Wu Sidao smiled coldly, and ridiculed the eighth master with disdain, and in the end, he casually gave the fourth master an idea to fall into the well.
"Well, let's talk about it again."
Although the fourth master already agreed with Wu Sidao's opinion in his heart, he did not want to accept it directly, after all, etiquette, righteousness and shame still have to be talked about, although the fourth master actually didn't believe in that set at all, but in front of everyone, he categorically refused to admit it, and a perfunctory response became the inevitable choice of the fourth master......
"Starling, things have been clarified, yesterday there were indeed twelve sea ships on the other side of Hangzhou that have left the port, full of silk porcelain collected by the Cao family, it is said that the Cao family has earned as much as 200,000 taels of silver with this alone, grandma is a bear, it is really cheap Cao Yin's old boy!"
Just when the fourth master and the people in the house were discussing the matter of the Eight Banners business, on the eighth master's house, in addition to Lao Jiu, several brothers and sisters also gathered in the Xinuan Pavilion, while idle, waiting for the accurate news from Jiangnan, and was laughing and talking about Wuji, but when he heard a rush of footsteps, the sweaty tenth master had already jumped up from the entrance of the building, but when he saw that he stretched out his hand to wipe his face, he shouted with great interest.
"Oh? Is the news true? ”
Hearing what the Tenth Master said, the Ninth Master suddenly came to his senses, and he hurriedly asked questions.
"It should be true, it was the dog of Ru Fu'an, the younger brother's disciple, who personally went to investigate, and all sources should be reliable!"
Lao Shi smiled, replied confidently, and then, slapped his thigh again, and scolded hatefully: "Hey, grandma is a bear, I didn't expect this overseas trade to really come from such money, alas, I knew it was like this, and the brothers made it together casually, and it was enough to go to Nanyang to play, and there was no land to cheapen the puppy day!" ”
"Hey, Brother Ten, don't be in a hurry, it's not that there is no chance right now, it's rare that Brother Qing is willing to give up the business name, if I don't laugh and accept it, won't I live up to Brother Qing'er's kindness?"
The old fourteen laughed, high-fived, and teased the eleventh sentence nonchalantly.
"In it, that's what I want, hey, that little muddy ball is really dizzy, such a good business, don't hide it alone, but send it out, it must be a brain kicked by a donkey, and if the brothers don't help him take care of it, it's really not going to be, starling, you just call the shots, the brothers will listen to you!"
The old eleven has always spent a lot of money, but over the years it has owed a lot of foreign debts, originally, there is also the "Kirin firm" in a province of agency power to get a lot of silver, but after the expiration of the contract this spring, the "Kirin firm" does not give the land, so that the old ten's small life is extremely tight, all rely on the support of the eighth master, this can barely maintain decency, at this time when I heard the old fourteen such a proposal, since it was in the middle of the heart, laughed and shouted.
"Mr. Lu, do you think there is any ambush for such a Eight Banners firm?"
Speaking of the matter of goods, the eighth master held back a fire in his heart, no side, since the last year Liu Ba Nu fell, the eighth master's money bag collapsed, but the use did not decrease but increased, especially after the brothers who originally came to the fastest money "Qilin Firm" territory was recovered, all the money was asked for by his eighth master, which made the eighth master a little tight, and it was precisely because of this that the eighth master would have the mind to do something in the matter of the Eight Banners business, but he suffered a lot under Hongqing. Before he figured out the intentions behind Hongqing's move, the eighth master really didn't have the courage to make a move, but it was difficult to say it, so he had no choice but to throw the question to the silent Lu Chunyan.
"The ambush should not be, but what its intentions are is incomprehensible, do not hide it from the prince, a certain has thought about it too many times, but it still does not want it, however, this matter has been concerned by the saint, I am afraid that it can be regarded as leisurely, and it must be cautious after all."
Seeing that the eyes of the eighth master and the others were flashing with anticipation and greed, Lu Chunyan couldn't help but feel a gloom in his heart, but now that he is vigorously developing his power, if he has no money to spend it, it is really too difficult to do it, because of this, even if he knows that attacking the Eight Banners business may attract the suspicion of the old man, Lu Chunyan is not easy to persuade the elder brother to stop, so he can only hint in words.
"Hey, I'm afraid, the masters are all from the Eight Banners, and it is also the proper meaning of the title to care for such a small business, and it is given by God, unknown!"
The old eleven came with a rough temperament, and secondly, he was really forced by poverty, and he was unwilling to let go of such a big fat piece of the Eight Banners firm, and when he heard Lu Chunyan say this, he was immediately unhappy, so he interrupted from the side.
"Yes, starling, I'm also in the flag, it's not like playing with a business, don't take it for nothing."
Lao Fourteen has a big heart, and his money has been very tight recently, and he is also playing the idea of the Eight Banners Firm.
"Sir, what do you think should be done about this?"
The eighth master was already excited by the huge profits of the Eight Banners firm, besides, this is a great opportunity to buy the hearts of the Eight Banners, since there is no reason to let the third master father and son enjoy it exclusively, at this time, seeing that all the younger brothers are interested in it, he has his own heart, but the stakes are very high, and the cautious Eighth Master does not want to get into trouble without fighting a fox, so he cautiously bowed his hand to Lu Chunyan and sincerely asked for advice.
"This matter really needs to be done, but it is not very difficult, Lu has a plan, or it can work, ......"
Although Lu Chunyan didn't want the eighth master to interfere in the affairs of the Eight Banners business, all the elder brothers were already ambitious, and besides, Lu Chunyan really couldn't sit back and watch the third master's father and son really envelop the Eight Banners, and after a little silence, he cautiously gave a suggestion.
"Well, okay, that's it!"
The eighth master pondered Lu Chunyan's proposal carefully in his heart, and felt that it should not be too difficult, even if he couldn't succeed, he could still do it, so he didn't hesitate anymore, so he high-fived and made a decision.
