Chapter 124: Merchants Gather
In the evening, outside Liu's house, there was a lot of traffic. A famous businessman got off the carriage and walked into the house. The family and the guards greeted each other with smiling faces. The businessmen in the courtyard were in groups, and there were many discussions.
"You said that Jia Yuanwai suddenly summoned Luoyang City today. Big and small businessmen, what is the matter".
"Let me say, there must be a big move by the imperial court. You know, Jia Yuanwai's background".
"I only heard that Jia Yuan's background is unfathomable, and his ears and eyes can reach the sky."
"Then you will be alone, I tell you. It is said that Jia Yuanwai has a good relationship with the six ministries of the DPRK and the prime minister? He often went in and out of various ministries and the prime minister's mansion. You say, "Is this the eye of the hand to the sky?"
"You have also lost a relationship, it is said that Jia Yuanwai is a close friend of His Majesty today."
At this point, all the surrounding businessmen gasped. A businessman couldn't help but smack his tongue: "My good girl, this is the real hand and eye to the sky." I don't understand, in this big week. What else is there that he can't do."
"Who said no, Jia Yuanwai sent a famous post, let's come to the party. In this Luoyang City, big and small businessmen, who dares to slack off. Who is not crying and rushing, digging out hollow thoughts to get together. As long as you are a little in front of Jia Yuanwai, show your face. In the future, when I do business, I will naturally be a little more courageous." A businessman is full of admiration for Jia Fu, if this businessman can mix, Jia Fu's level is really in vain.
A slightly older businessman, after hearing these words, couldn't help touching his beard: "We are businessmen, although we have a lot of money and property in our hands, our status is very low. The appearance of Jia Yuanwai made the old man's eyes shine, and his achievements are really desirable."
"He is a rich party, and he is also a guest of dignitaries, and he is a close friend of His Majesty today. The people of my generation are just going through the history books. I can find a few people who can achieve general achievements at this time." The surrounding businessmen hurriedly echoed it.
Another businessman couldn't help but interject: "Our status is embarrassing, if Jia can point out a clear way for us, I am willing to serve the dead."
"Though we are rich, we are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, at the mercy of the powerful. If Jia Yuanwai can really point out a clear way, how can I pity that little strength and money."
"Yes, we don't ask for anything else, we just hope that Jia Yuanwai can appeal to the court, pity us and other businessmen for their misery, and protect the safety of our property. Let the insatiable officials, and the bullies, not be able to do whatever they want."
"When the banquet starts, we will jointly petition and let Jia Yuan go out. No matter what the cost, it will be done."
All of a sudden, the merchants joined in, and the merchants' demands were sent to the house. Jia Fu was in the bedroom and looked at Liu Sheng: "Brother Sheng, can you hear what those businessmen said outside."
"How could I not know, take your time, everything will be there". Liu Sheng looked at Jia Fu and said this, which was considered to be a disguised takeover of this matter.
Jia Fu smiled after hearing this, and looked at Liu Sheng with great pleasure: "Then please leave this matter to Brother Sheng."
"The people outside the door are asking for you, not me." Liu Sheng shook his head and asked Jia Fu.
Jia Fu hurriedly retorted: "Brother Sheng, this time, I will gather the businessmen in Luoyang City, but what do you mean. I have already stated that I will not participate in your discussions on the government. So in every way, it's up to you."
"Ah Fu, how do I feel, you are very concerned about this matter." Liu Sheng felt that Jia Fu seemed to care a lot about this matter. But why did he never mention it?
Jia Fu nodded hurriedly, not hiding anything: "I, Jia Fu, as a businessman, how could I not know these things." I have seen with my own eyes that there are unscrupulous officials, who are insatiable, and who give excuses at will, and they are exterminated."
"When was it?". Liu Sheng was surprised, how could he never have heard of such a thing. It seems that he is still too naïve to think, this dynasty is not the Song Dynasty after all. The status of merchants is the same as that of previous dynasties. Though he is rich, he is a lamb to the slaughter. If it weren't for that day, I would have participated on a whim. I am afraid that this matter will become a fatal flaw in the future.
Jia Fu thought for a while, and then looked at Liu Sheng after a while: "About a few months ago, when the battle for the storage position was still the most intense. The East Palace is crumbling, how can I be sideways."
"I see, I'll take care of this matter." After listening to Jia Fu's explanation, Liu Sheng didn't say anything about this matter.
Jia Fu was relieved, this matter pressed on his heart, and it was very uncomfortable. I am a person who aspires to be a businessman, and I will not participate in government affairs. This is the way of business that Brother Sheng handed over to him before, otherwise the ending will be very miserable. So I can only hold back in my heart and be silent in this matter: "If Brother Sheng makes a move, I will be relieved."
"Do you think it's really okay for us to sit in this room all the time?" Liu Sheng looked at Jia Fu's relieved appearance and asked with a smile.
Jia Fu smiled mysteriously after hearing this: "Brother Sheng, don't worry, the more I am like this, the more they will buy it." If you don't believe it, you'll see."
"You have to take care of the things in the shopping mall yourself." Liu Sheng couldn't help it and admonished. To paraphrase what Jia Fu said before, sometimes it is easier for others to accept it with a shelf than without a shelf.
Jia Fu smiled and nodded, for others, he was naturally willing to bow to Liu Sheng. But for business, he has now practiced perfectly. I think I still have a few levels, and I can regain some self-esteem in this regard: "Brother Sheng, I am doing business in Luoyang, and I didn't do it for nothing. At this point, it's the same as cooking, and now that the heat hasn't arrived, we should be patient."
"What you said is reasonable, I don't look at them at all." Liu Sheng stood up and looked out the window into the courtyard. The businessmen called friends one by one, and the conversation was hot.
Jia Fu saw Liu Sheng's appearance at this time and laughed happily. For the first time, I felt that he had surpassed his brother Sheng in business: "Brother Sheng, but I have some doubts, the scene outside."
"It feels like we're sitting here, and it's a bit rude." Liu Sheng looked at the scene outside the window thoughtfully, puzzled.
Seeing Liu Sheng's doubts, Jia Fu happily explained: "If we go out now, they won't resent us on the surface, but they will definitely have complaints in their hearts." At this time, Luoyang merchants gathered in the mansion, and it was a time for them to show their magical powers, make friends and make friends. If we go out now, isn't that annoying? “。
"I see, it seems that the way of businessmen, I am far inferior to you." Liu Sheng couldn't help but sigh when he heard Jia Fu's remarks. Looking at the scene outside the window, Jia Fu had already unconsciously stood in an ordinary person. Poor all his life, can not look up, to the position.
When Jia Fu heard Liu Sheng's words, he smiled and was overjoyed. Accidentally, his tail cocked: "I like what Brother Sheng said very much, if you don't praise me again, what do you think."
"Okay, okay, if you really give you a smile, you'll be bright. Look outside, when are we going to go out, it's best to go out". Liu Sheng looked at Jia Fu who was smug, and poured a basin of cold water on him angrily.
"Hey, hey......". Jia Fu laughed embarrassedly and looked out the window intently. The sun gradually set, and a bright moon appeared in the sky: "Brother Sheng is now, let's go out and officially start the banquet."
Jia Fu opened the door and strode into the courtyard. Liu Sheng followed closely and touched his stomach, he was indeed a little hungry at this time.
