readx; Taking advantage of the fact that the prefect Shi Kefa had not yet arrived, Lin Yu began to pour bitter water, emphasizing the objective reason that he could not contribute money to help him. Pens, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info please search! The fastest updated novel, he is eloquent:

"First of all, everyone, none of us here are officials, but they are all ordinary people. Not only the people, but also the people who say that we are in business, we are the most popular. The peasants who dig in the soil are still qualified to wear silk clothes, but we are not qualified to wear them; In order to make a living, go south and north, where can you go up and down with a smile? Is it easy to earn that money? Oh, now it's time to help, people with higher status than us don't pay, so many people in Yangzhou City don't pay, and a few of us don't pay, how can there be such a reason! ”

These words were spoken to the hearts of the merchants, and they immediately applauded. Lin Yu continued: "This second, take 10,000 steps back and say, the prefect's official law is majestic, forcing us to pay, who let us twist our arms and thighs, and we have to pay if we have money." But we don't have any money right now! Since the rebels came to the east, the canal was cut off, and we, the merchants, couldn't do a single business, and we couldn't send out a single cargo ship! If we don't sell goods, where will the money come from, will we make a trick? ”

"That's right! Boss Lin is so right! ”

"I can't make a trick, in short, I don't have any money!"

The merchants shouted again, Lin Yu felt that he was supported by everyone, and he was more confident, so he blew his beard and glared: "This third, as the saying goes, the copper plate is still heard in the water." Let's pay for silver, listen to the play, taste tea and drink flower wine, which doesn't cost money? But after listening to the play, our ears are comfortable, our stomachs are comfortable after tasting tea, and after drinking flower wine, haha, we are comfortable below! But Gang Master Pan, if you talk about taking money to help us pay, how can it do us the slightest? If you take out this money, you won't feel comfortable anywhere on your body! ”

"Hahahaha!" The merchants burst into laughter. Several hall masters of the Cao Gang all had anger on their faces, because Lin Yu's last words were extremely vulgar and obscene, but he deliberately said it in front of the young woman of the gang leader, which was really suspected of teasing and flirting.

"I'll say whatever I think, Gang Master Pan, what do you Cao Gang mean?" Lin Yu said triumphantly, and asked the girl with a smile on her face.

The girl was not annoyed, and smiled indifferently at Lin Yu's gaze without fear: "There was no part for Ying Zi to speak here, but since Boss Lin asked, Ying Zi didn't dare to hide it a little." The bosses are the food and clothing parents of our Cao Gang, and it stands to reason that we should only look forward to the horses. What Boss Lin said just now is all true, and every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. However, Ying Zi also wants to settle an account for the bosses. ”

As soon as everyone heard it, they knew that there was something in her words, and they all knew that although this girl was gentle and lovely, she actually had both brains and means, otherwise how could she make thousands of people in Yangzhou Cao Gang bow down and obey orders at such a young age, so they all listened attentively.

"No one from the Wu Mansion came today, and several businessmen were not there, so they didn't plan to come. They weren't there, and some of them were more convenient. The girl looked around the audience and said eloquently, "Just now Boss Lin said that if you don't go to the boat, there will be no silver, but this is only half right. It's true that you don't go on a boat and don't get in the money, but you have to go out with the money that should be out.

"Let's take the transporters as an example, as far as Ying Zi knows, you have to pay a share of silver to the merchants every year, ranging from hundreds of taels to thousands of taels. Whether it is sold or not, this silver must be sold, otherwise the market merchants will not sell salt to you this year. Ying Zi is right, right? ”

"Hey, Gang Master Pan, it turns out that you know too!" A transporter immediately sighed and said, "Isn't it, on the eighth day of the lunar month last year, I paid this year's silver!" At that time, a few of us also pleaded with Lao Li together, the canal had been broken, and we didn't know when the military disaster would pass, and there was no entry at all, so could we give some time. Lao Li immediately turned his face, saying that he was also short of money, and if he didn't hand over the silver immediately, even if the friendship over the years was broken, he would want to buy from his salt field in the future! Alas, I couldn't help it, so I bit my back molars and handed it in! ”

The "Lao Li" in his mouth is Li Changjiang, the most powerful businessman in Yangzhou. One person said this, and other transporters also complained: "He Lao Li sits on the salt field to ensure the harvest of drought and flood, how can he be tight?" ”

"Boss Li is okay, he still has the Wu family above him." The girl sneered, "As the chief businessman, the Wu family has hundreds of millions of family assets, but he asks for it from the field businessman, and the field businessman has to ask for it, and it is the Wu family who really guarantees the harvest from drought and flood!" Even if the canal can't go by boat for a year, two years or three years, the Wu family will not lose a penny of silver. said that if he didn't complain to the Yamen of the Governor of Caoyun, he could still pay less salt and silver, and his income was more than in previous years. But what about you? The prefect asks you for help, no matter how much, there will always be a number of deaths; But if the canal doesn't open for a day, you can't ship it for a day, and the loss can't be calculated! ”

"That's right! But no, we're in a hurry, they're not in a hurry..."Everyone was talking.

"Boss Lin, in front of everyone here, Ying Zi doesn't want to go around, the Wu family and the Li family didn't come today, they probably want to fight with the prefect and send you to be this pioneer, right?" The girl teased Lin Yu again.

Everyone laughed again, because everyone in the Yangzhou business circle knew that this Lin Yu was almost fifty years old in order to do business well, and he actually recognized Wu Liang, the second young master of the Wu family in his early twenties, as his godfather. No need to ask, the rhetoric just now must have been taught to him by the Wu family. Lin Yu also smiled awkwardly, speechless, in fact, how could he not resent the Wu family in his heart?

The girl turned to everyone and said emotionally: "After all, you are a big family, but what about our Cao Gang!" We have no land, no ancestral property, and only a handful of strength in our bodies. There are old and young, all rely on running boats to work hard and earn so much hard-earned money. But as soon as the rebels came, the canal was cut off, and you couldn't do business, and we had no food! To tell you the truth, there are many brothers in our gang whose families have been cut off, and they all rely on the help from within the gang. If this situation continues for another three or five months, our Cao Gang will not be able to support it! ”

Speaking of the sad part, the girl couldn't help but burst into tears. The merchants were cold in their hearts, they knew that the Cao Gang had thousands of people, and they might be nothing, but if they really reached the point where they couldn't eat, these people were not fuel-efficient lamps. They are more or less in arrears of some of the wages of the Cao Gang, and when the time comes, as long as this beautiful gang leader raises his arms, thousands of people will immediately snatch all their belongings. Therefore, these people hurriedly comforted the girl: "The helper doesn't have to be too sad. So according to your opinion, what should we do? ”

"The rebellion is uneven, the canal is difficult to pass, and everyone has no food." The girl wiped away her tears and said resolutely, "Therefore, our Cao Gang decided to respond to the call of the prefect and contribute money to help the group!" ”
