Chapter 783: Cui Minghao who is looking for his roots and asking his ancestors
After Zhang Yuanxin listened to his son introduce the origin of this Goguryeo Cui Minghao, he probably had a certain understanding in his chest.
It seems that about the Cui and Zhang families planning for silver in Huaiyang and Jiangnan, their precious son was kicked out by Cui Yizhen.
And the real initiator is not Cui Yizhen of the Qinghe Cui family, nor is it Cui Minghao, the son of an official eunuch from distant Goguryeo, but it is precisely the unscrupulous son of his second brother's family - Zhang Chengzong.
As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Yuanxin couldn't help but be angry, he didn't expect that his son was actually calculated by Zhang Chengzong, a bastard.
Good boy, he can't do it externally, but he is an expert at dealing with his cousins.
Of course, in his eyes, Zhang Chengzong's kid can't support the wall, and it may be his good second brother Zhang Yuanzhi who is making suggestions.
He looked at his uncompetitive son and scolded: "Useless things will actually be defeated in the hands of bastards like Zhang Chengzong." Hmph, go back to the room for Lao Tzu to take a look at "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn", and learn from LΓΌ Buwei's management and scheming skills. Think about it yourself, where did you lose! β
Zhang Chengsi thought that he would be abused by his father, and even beaten up. Unexpectedly, his father's punishment was just to let him go back to his room to read, and he suddenly felt like he had been amnestied, lowered his head and let out a soft sigh, and the cat's waist flashed and fled.
Then, Zhang Yuanxin held back his anger, waved his hand at the onlookers, and shouted: "What are you standing here looking at, don't you have to work?" Hurry up, carry these corpses to Yizhuang to deal with them, the Zhang family has never raised things for nothing. β
As soon as the people heard the voice, they were busy, and a group of two stepped forward to lift the body and clean up the mess in front of the gate of the Zhang family's ancestral house.
Zhang Yuanxin's face was angry, he squinted his eyes and took a few deep breaths, and said in a hateful voice: "Second brother, second brother, you are really unrighteous, as an elder, you hide behind your back and make a trick to dismantle the platform of my family's heir." You can't just leave it at that! β
After some chatter, Zhang Yuanxin suddenly remembered the incident of Feng Lei Tang's planting of blame, and his face couldn't help showing a bit of luck, and he said to himself: "Ah, I almost left this matter behind." By the way, why don't I take advantage of the fact that I reported to the eldest brother that Fenglei Hall had planted our Zhang family, and then talk to him about the inheritance? Hmph, you can't just let their second room get cheap. β
Thinking of it, Zhang Yuanxin raised his legs and turned around, and rushed towards the direction of the mansion where Zhang Yuanli's vein was located in the Zhang family's big house
The big house, second room and third room of the Zhang family in Gujing Lane have their own houses, and the big house of the Zhang family is at the east end of Gujing Lane, which is a three-in and three-out mansion.
Zhang Yuanzhi's two rooms and one vein, Zhang Yuanxin's three rooms and one vein are located at the north and south ends of Gujing Lane respectively, both of which are a set of two in and two out, with the characteristics of Jiangnan gardens, and the houses with pavilions and pavilions and water pavilions are built.
At this time, Zhang Yuanxin went to the mansion of the eldest brother Zhang Yuanli, and the mansion of the three-room Zhang Yuanzhi was also not deserted, because Zhang Chengzong invited Cui Yizhen and Cui Minghao to have fun at the Slender West Lake Chunliu Painting Boat last night, and then left them to have a small gathering at home.
Several people slept until three o'clock in the morning, and only got up after the noisy noise on the ancestral house side stopped.
After getting up on the mattress one after another to make up for their stomachs, Zhang Chengzong, Cui Yizhen, and Cui Minghao gathered in a pavilion in the courtyard of the two-room house, and were discussing the matter of opening a silver number.
The gazebo is located on the edge of an artificially carved pond in the mansion.
In the pavilion, Cui Yizhen sat in the center, obviously becoming the core figure between the three of them.
And Cui Minghao and Zhang Chengzong sat on the left and right respectively, as if they were not interested in Cui Yizhen's identity as a coquettish talker.
The three of them were eating pastries and padding their stomachs, while drinking tea to wake up, and after gossiping, Cui Yizhen cleared his throat and was ready to get into the main topic.
I only heard Cui Yi really say: "Two, we also talked a lot about the Chunliu Painting Boat last night, and everyone knows a thing or two about opening a silver number. The silver number is a big piece of fat, just look at Chai Lingwen, Liang Shuyu, and Yu Nuannuan from Changle Fang Qianzhuang in Chang'an. In the past six months, how much silver has Chang'an City, with a population of one million, made them circle? Absorb the silver of retail investors in a million people, and then lend to merchants who are in a hurry to use the silver with mortgages, how much is the profit of this absorption and release? Didn't the eldest grandson Yumo, the third son of the eldest grandson's family, also say it last night? One by one, they are full of money, and they are fat! β
Zhang Chengzong had already listened to the sparkle in his eyes, and nodded again and again in agreement: "Yes, yes, compared to Yinhao Qianzhuang, our Zhang family used to secretly intercept Yangzhou salt tax, but it really can't be on the table." Don't look at the salt tax of millions of taels a year, but a few big heads are apportioned, and then there are a dozen points at each pass, and there is really not much that falls into our Zhang family's pocket. Damn, I'm sneaking around like a thief, and I'm scared. For example, this time, Ben Gongzi was almost destroyed in the hands of Xue Hao, a dead ghost, and almost ate Guo Ye's bastard's melon brand. Alas, the past is unbearable, where is the scenery of opening a silver account to make a lot of money? And it is also done above board and confidently. β
Cui Minghao sat on Cui Yizhen's right side with a sluggish expression, and suddenly said: "Cousin Yizhen, this Yangzhou assassin surnamed Guo is really hateful, and he was humiliating me in the Chunliu Painting Boat before. Just as you Han people in the Central Plains said, you can kill but not be humiliated, this revenge is not shared, I will definitely take revenge. Please also ask Cousin Yizhen to be the master for me. β
Cui Minghao called Cui Yizhen a cousin, and his mouth was sweet and greasy, and he called it affectionate, but when he heard it, Cui Yizhen was cold again and again, and goosebumps stood all over his body.
He also secretly despised this Goguryeo Cui clan disciple in his heart, grandma's, give you a bamboo pole and you will climb the pole, and climb relatives so confidently.
In fact, he was still unsure whether this Goguryeo Choi clan was a distant relative of their Qinghe Choi clan.
However, since Zhang Chengzong introduced Cui Minghao to his acquaintance, the other party is like a dog skin plaster, chasing after his ass every day and calling his cousin, saying that Goguryeo Cui's and Qinghe Cui's are the same thing, and they were one family five hundred years ago.
Cui Yizhen is in line with the purpose of reaching out and not hitting smiling people, and this Goguryeo Cui Minghao is indeed a stupid person with a lot of money and waste casually, so he is perfunctory with his hypocrisy.
Now that the matter of opening a silver account has just been put on the agenda, it is precisely when it is necessary to inject a large amount of money into the silver, and it is impossible for him to turn away Cui Minghao, a big fish.
Immediately, a kind smile appeared on his face, and he pretended to comfort Cui Minghao: "Cousin Minghao, we Han people still have a saying that being able to bend and stretch is a big husband. Now we want to open a silver account in Yangzhou, and the surname Guo is Yangzhou Thorn History, this is on other people's territory, if you can not tear your face with him, then try not to tear your face with others. Are you right? At present, we first opened a silver account in Yangzhou to try it first, waiting for the success of Yangzhou silver number, and in the future, our silver number will be opened all over Huaiyang and Jiangnan, so there is no need to buy the account surnamed Guo. When the time comes, my cousin will avenge you again and wash away the shame of the day. What do you think? β
Cui Minghao was overjoyed when he heard this, stood up and bowed respectfully to Cui Yizhen, and said, "Cousin has taught me a lesson. When I was still in Goguryeo, my father often warned me that the Choi clan of the Eight Great Families of the Central Plains was the root of our Choi clan in Goguryeo. Our Goguryeo Choi clan was bred in the Central Plains Choi clan. I have already written to my father in Goguryeo, presumably my father will be overjoyed to know that Minghao will recognize his cousin Yizhen in Yangzhou, and in the near future, he will definitely bring the entire Goguryeo Cui family to the Central Plains to find their roots. So, I'll listen to whatever Cousin Yizhen says. β
Cui Yizhen heard it and had a bad chill, could it be that these Goguryeo sticks all like to tie up with others as ancestors? actually brought the whole clan to the Central Plains to find their roots and ask their ancestors, which is really shameless.
Zhang Chengzong didn't think so, on the contrary, he was still complacent about his move of introducing Cui Minghao to Cui Yizhen. If it weren't for pulling Cui Minghao, the wronged leader, into the center, Cui Yizhen would have trusted himself so much? Otherwise, how could he kick his good cousin Zhang Chengsi out of the game?
Immediately, he pretended to be very excited and complimented: "Although Brother Ming Hao is a Goguryeo, he can always remember that his roots are in the Central Plains, which is really moving." The children of the Cui family are really people who do not forget their roots. Touched, really touched. Here, Chengzong is happy that Brother Yizhen and Brother Ming Hao can recognize each other by blood. It's really destined in the dark, broken bones and tendons, a family will always be a family. β
Listening to Zhang Chengzong's compliment, Cui Minghao's Goguryeo stick was of course extremely useful, but Cui Yizhen couldn't help frowning, and quickly waved his hand to change the topic: "Okay, let's gossip and get to the point." The three of you and I are here today, and I have one more important thing to announce to you. That's the question of how many components each of you and I have in Yangzhou Yinhao. β
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Chengzong and Cui Minghao immediately held their breath, quieted down, stared at Cui Yizhen with wide eyes, and waited for the result he announced.
Cui Yizhen was very satisfied with this effect, and also enjoyed this feeling of calling for a hundred promises, and said slowly with a smile: "Yangzhou Yinhao, our Qinghe Cui clan invested 500,000 taels and accounted for 50 percent, Yangzhou Zhang invested 300,000 taels and accounted for 30 percent, and Cui Minghao's cousin said that although his roots are in Goguryeo and not in the Central Plains, he is willing to contribute 1 million taels, so the remaining two achievements belong to your Goguryeo Cui clan."
Of course, this is only for the elements of Yangzhou Silver. My father said that Yangzhou Silver is just a pilot for our Guanlong family, if Yangzhou Silver can be a great success, we will open the silver all over Huaiyang and Jiangnan. Of course, our ultimate goal is to open the silver trumpet all over the ten and hundreds of state capitals of Datang, and completely control the economic arteries of Datang in applause. Therefore, this sharing ratio is currently only competing for Yangzhou Yinhao. Do you have any objections to this ratio? β
Zhang Chengzong had already known about this result, because at that time, Yangzhou Zhang's and Qinghe's Cui had already had an agreement. In the future, waiting for the eight major families to participate together, there will definitely be another change in the proportion. Because the eight great families represent the backbone of the Guanlong family, they are all in the same breath and advance and retreat together.
Immediately, he nodded again and again and agreed: "No objection, no objection!" β
But Cui Minghao didn't answer immediately, but lowered his head and didn't know what to think, after a while, he suddenly raised his head, still looking at Cui Yizhen with a clear and innocent look, raised his right hand and shouted:
"Brother Yizhen, Ming Hao has objections!"
After shouting, he didn't forget to add weakly: "It's just a little different opinion, and I hope that Cousin Yizhen will allow it." β
PS: Sorry, the second one is late, sorry!
