The tense situation just now was slightly eased under Jiang Risheng's words, but the problem was still between the two sides. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Su Zhong didn't speak anymore, he was already a person who knew how to advance and retreat. He dared to take the lead before, because he was already such a person in front of people, as long as he didn't cross the line, others wouldn't care too much.

It's just that without his pick, Jiang Risheng can't hide behind the scenes. This person knew that tonight would be a Hongmen banquet, and it would not be so easy to pass the test. Before he came, he was ready to bow his head, but he didn't know where the bottom line was, so he let Su Zhong make a fuss.

Now that there is no help from others, he has no choice but to walk to the front of the stage by himself: "Xiao Tingshi, since you know everything, you must have a solution." Can you tell me about it, so that you can refer to it? ”

As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing looked at those hopeful eyes, but said nothing.

He didn't say anything, but Wei Chengmou, who was sitting next to him, stood up.

His actions attracted everyone's attention for a long time.

Wei Chengmou greeted with a gesture, and soon someone brought a wooden plate.

There was a stack of paperwork on the wooden plate, and Wei Chengmou got up and took the paperwork in his hand.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a statement drawn up by Xiao Tingshi, Lu Changshi and me." As he spoke, he personally handed the paperwork to each of the grain merchants present, "Everyone, take a look, take a look first." ”

Because it was sent by his own hands, these grain merchants took it carefully and read it carefully.

Wei Chengmou, on the other hand, returned to his place and waited silently with his two colleagues.

After a long time, after these businessmen put down the paperwork, Wei Chengmou opened his mouth: "Have you finished reading it?" ”

When his words fell, the grain merchants present nodded in response.

"Now that you've read it, please tell me what you think."

Wei Chengmou said with a kind face.

When he asked, all the grain merchants looked at each other for a while, and finally they all looked at Jiang Risheng again.

Seeing this, Jiang Risheng opened his mouth helplessly: "Wei Sima, I have read this document and understood, but it is really difficult for me to wait and take out so much food." ”

This Jiang Risheng is a businessman, he saw that Xiao Jing and others made a price, so he used a businessman's set and began to bargain on the ground.

But his set is not suitable for an occasion like today.

"It seems that you still haven't got along, so let's think about it here." Lu Kang said, stood up and said to Xiao Jing, "Brother Ziyu, Brother Qiao and Brother Xie are still waiting in front, let's go meet them?" ”

"Okay, let's go." Xiao Jing also got up as he spoke, "Everyone, please think about it here." ”

After speaking, he walked out of the room with Lu and Wei.

The three of them were in a hurry, leaving no room for others to be saved.

When they left, there was a commotion in the room, and all kinds of voices filled the room, and everyone thought differently and said differently.

In the corridor outside, Xiao Jing was walking and walking, and suddenly stopped: "How can I feel that something is wrong with this arrangement." ”

It was not a gentleman's courtesy to detain visitors, and he was a little hesitant.

"Ziyu, don't be soft-hearted." Lu Kang persuaded softly, "These people are all treacherous and cunning people, if you don't let them see some power, they won't be obedient." ”

Wei Chengmou also said: "What Ji Ning said is true, businessmen are nine times out of ten, and they don't need to be hard-handed, this matter is difficult to achieve." ”

Seeing that the two of them both had the same meaning, Xiao Jing nodded: "That's it, so be it." It's just that those soldiers sent out have to be taken care of, so don't cause trouble. ”

Nowadays, food is too expensive, not only in Jiangbei, but also in Suzhou.

Xiao Jing was worried that the soldiers who were sent out would use their power for personal gain and steal the food in the store.

If this is the case, then it is really a matter of authority, and all the previous arrangements will be lost.

"Brother Xiao, don't worry." Lu Kang said talkatively, "I have issued a strict order, and no one will dare to make trouble at this time." ”

Seeing him so assured, Xiao Jing nodded, and took another step under his feet.

——————————

There is a hall in Canglang Garden, which is called Mingdao Hall.

Mingdao Hall is open and open, grand and solemn, its north peak is like a screen, and the surrounding arbors are lush and verdant. This is the main hall in the park, and the guests are all high-ranking dignitaries in Suzhou.

When Xiao, Lu, and Wei arrived, the table had already been opened.

Treating these people, Xiao Jing was much more polite, arched his hands, and apologized all the way to the main seat and sat down.

"Xiao Lingjun is late, you can punish yourself."

As soon as he sat down, someone laughed like this.

And these words also attracted the audience's echo, and Xiao Jing had to get up.

"On the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiao is not very happy to be able to drink with his lords at night." As he spoke, he slowed down and picked up his wine glass, "Since Xiao is late, he should naturally be punished." It's just that Xiao is too boring to drink, and I ask you to drink with me. ”

With that, he drank all the wine in his cup.

When the rest of the people saw this, they also raised their glasses to drink with it, so that the banquet was officially opened.

Most of the people present were in-laws, and their behavior was much more relaxed, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Although Xiao Jing was full of worries, he had to restrain his mind at this time and make a false deal with everyone present.

After three rounds of drinking, someone suddenly stood up in the hall.

"Ladies and gentlemen, such a good feast, if it is just drinking, wouldn't it be a good idea to live up to Xiao Yuanjun's good intentions." This person held a wine glass and looked around the hall, "Princess, why don't you take this opportunity to show your poetic talents, or you can achieve a good story!" ”

When everyone in the hall heard this, they nodded their heads in agreement, but some people disagreed.

"This was the case in previous years, but if it is like this today, wouldn't it be nothing new?"

This man's opinion changed the minds of the people.

When this person's voice fell, the person who proposed the poem asked: "What should I do according to Brother Huaishan's intentions?" ”

The person who disagrees with him, whose name is Qiao Jun, is Huaishan, who is Qiao Yu's father and the brother of Mrs. Xiao Jing.

"According to the meaning of the following, all the princes are here with their sons tonight. It's better to take this opportunity to let all the children write a poem. Qiao Jun smiled and said his opinion, "In this way, we can also learn the knowledge of our own children, so as not to make them work behind closed doors and give birth to Yelang's arrogance." ”

The reason why he said this was not his own opinion, but Qiao's thoughts.

Qiao's wanted to take this opportunity to test Wei Jue's knowledge,

Qiao Jun's words caused a discussion in the hall.

After a while, someone stood up and said, "What Brother Huaishan said is exactly what I want, and that little man in my family prides himself on being a talented man every day." In this way, let him know what is outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. ”

This resonated with everyone, and they all spoke in agreement.

Seeing this, Xiao Jing got up, and the rest of the people quieted down.

"Since all the princes think so, so be it." After speaking, he said to Li Yi beside him, "Lide, you can handle this matter." After all the families wrote it, they all sent it here for public comment. ”

"Yes, envoy, go down here."

Li Yi replied and retreated.

After he left, everyone in the hall began to persuade them to drink and drink again, and the scene became lively again.
