In the final analysis, this is caused by the unequal status of the two sides. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Wang family is a family of imperial examinations, and the He family is at most a wealthy businessman, and the two are not on the same order of magnitude at all.

If nothing happens, it's naturally hello, I'm good, everyone, if the two sides turn their faces, the only one who suffers can only be He Chang. And He Chang could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Xie Shen believed that if he really planned to cooperate with the Wang family, the Wang family would not agree to leave any evidence of the contract.

Of course, Xie Shen's identity is also different from He Chang's.

Although Xie Shen is not an official, he is a scholar, and he is also a promising scholar. Even if he really cooperates with the Wang family, Xie Shen is not at a disadvantage psychologically.

There is also a very important point, the Wang family is ready to invest money in Yuyao Xianming, which is very different from the cooperation with the He family. As long as the Wang family is willing to invest money, Xie Shen will not be passive. If it is a pure soft resource investment like cooperating with the He family, then Xie Shen will have a headache.

Elder Wang Su nodded approvingly and said, "Now it seems that this is the only way to do." Xie Xian's nephew has great ambitions, and the old man admires him. ”

Xie Shen didn't know if it was his courage or meticulous logical deduction that moved Wang Su, all in all, this crisis of confidence was over.

Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed unlikely that Wang Shouwen knew about it in advance. After all, Wang Shouwen is neither the eldest son nor an adult, and it is unlikely that the Wang family's affairs will be informed to him. In other words, Wang Shouwen is at most an idler with a high status.

Wang Shouwen was the most aggrieved this time, and he was caught between the Wang family and Xie Shen and was angry......

Xie Shen chatted with Wang Su for half a cup of tea, and then found an excuse to leave Wang's house.

Back at home, after a freshen up under Shui Yun's service, Xie Shen fell down on the bed, looking at Haoyue outside the window and falling into deep thought.

At first, he had been wondering how the Wang family's mansion came to be, but now he finally understood that it was originally obtained by this kind of "cooperation". This should be the privilege of officials. You must know that after Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he treated officials very harshly, and the officials' salaries were very meager, and it was even difficult to support their families.

There is a way to be an official for thousands of miles, just for food and clothing. Even the most basic requirements of food and clothing cannot be satisfied, so these officials will naturally seek other solutions, and cooperation with businessmen is the best shortcut.

Take the big tea merchant He Chang as an example. What He Chang needs is nothing more than two things, one is public opinion propaganda, and the other is policy support. Public opinion propaganda relies on word of mouth in Shilin circles, and policy support is actually simpler, which is a word from officials.

These wealthy businessmen are elites who have gone through countless business wars, and as long as the superiors do not obstruct them in every way, they can make the goods work well.

However, the Wang family was able to provide these two things, so the two families naturally came together......

Is this an exchange of interests?

This is a very distressing thing for Xie Shen. After all, his ultimate goal is to become an official in the court, and one day he will also face such a choice. Sages like Wang Hua and Wang Shouren also have to bend their waists for the five buckets of rice, can he Xie Shen jump out of the Three Realms and not be in the Five Elements?

From this point of view, Xie Shen was right to let his eldest brother Xie Fang expand his business scope in advance. If the eldest brother runs well, at least he won't be too entangled in the face of such a thing.

Cooperation between officials is always much safer than cooperation between officials and businessmen, and in the final analysis, their core interests are the same. However, the cooperation between officials and businessmen is more temporary, and differences in core interests are likely to break up.

If you want to develop better, you have to work hard to climb up, and if you are just a businessman who is tricked in the end, you can only sigh to yourself.

Xie Shen fell asleep in such a daze, and when he woke up, Shui Yun had already brought the basin to the room.

The young man rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up to wash up, changed into a brand-new royal blue shirt in front of the bronze mirror, and then walked out of the room and towards the dining room with satisfaction.

The family sat down together for breakfast, and Xie Shen went out of the house alone with a cloth bag.

Now that he has returned to Yuyao, he is going to study in the county after all. It's better to go late than early, and if you go early, you can still show that you are thirsty for learning.

Xie Shen came to the front of the school palace and happened to have a face-to-face with Wang Shouwen.

Wang Shouwen was obviously still angry with Xie Shen about what happened last night, so he didn't say hello to Xie Shen, and walked into the county school.

Xie Shen was naturally at fault in this matter, so he quickly followed with guilt.

"Brother Shouwen, I blame me for yesterday's incident, I shouldn't be angry with you without understanding things clearly."

Xie Shen still has a lot of feelings for Wang Shouwen, a good brother, and of course he doesn't want to hurt the relationship between the two because of some trivial things. Good brothers don't have an overnight feud, and the sooner this misunderstanding is revealed, the better. If it drags on for a long time, it will inevitably fall into a knot.

Wang Shouwen frowned and said, "Are you sincere?" ”

Xie Shen smiled: "Isn't it clear about my temperament, Brother Shouwen?" I have one thing to say and two things to say, not to people. This matter is Xie's fault, and Xie apologizes to Brother Shouwen. ”

Wang Shouwen was not really angry with Xie Shen, and when he heard that Xie Shen took the initiative to make amends, he nodded and said, "This is about the same." When you left last night, my uncle left me for a long time, telling me not to be angry with you. But I'm going to wait for you to apologize first. ”

“......”

How can Xie Shen answer the call? Xie Shen had no choice but to smile and say, "It's not enough to kill people, let's expose this matter!" ”

The two of them arrived in front of Minglun Hall together, and when they saw that most of the people were already sitting in the hall, they hurriedly walked in.

Xie Pi stepped forward to greet the two of them when they saw them coming: "Brother Shen, Brother Shouwen, why did you come, didn't you sleep." ”

Wang Shouwen scratched his head and said: "I have been lazy for most of the month I have been going to Hangzhou Mansion, and it is all out of order. It's good to be up today. ”

Xie Shen saw that Wang Shouwen had said everything he wanted to say, so he nodded with a smile.

In fact, the county school does not have strict regulations on the time when students enter the school, as long as they say hello to the teachings, there is no problem if they do not come to the county school for a few days to go out to study.

But I know my own situation, Xie Shen's skills are still not as good as those who have been in the Four Books and Five Classics for many years, and he should seize the time to check and fill in the gaps.

If it is really a prodigal mess for two years, it is not impossible for the township test to fail.

"Fortunately, you went to Minglun Hall one step ahead of schedule, otherwise if you bumped into Zheng Xundao, you would have suffered it."

Xie Pi shook his head and sighed.
