Chapter 125: The Current Situation of the Merchants

The businessman in the courtyard saw Jia Fu and walked over with Liu Sheng. They all greeted each other politely, and Jia Fu returned the salute one by one, with a smile on his face like a flower: "You guys are in the house, there are some miscellaneous things, and if you come out late, please Haihan."

"Jia Yuanwai is too polite, let's wait, it's what it should be, it should be." A famous businessman couldn't wait for him and chimed in. Strive to show his face a few more times in front of Jia Fu, so that he can be familiar.

After a while, the echo slowly subsided. A young businessman couldn't help but ask: "There is a way to be a guest, and Jia is busy with other affairs." We waited a lot, as we should. But I don't know what is going on with us summoned by the outside today."

"Whatever it is, there's no rush at this moment. If you don't dislike it, I'll have a lot of tea here. Then please take a seat, and we'll talk while we eat." Jia Fu did not answer, but beckoned the merchants in the courtyard and all took their seats. Motioned to the housekeeper and put the food and drinks.

The businessmen in the courtyard slowly sat down, and some businessmen accused the young businessmen who had just asked: "The younger generations from there are so unruly." What Jia Yuanwai does, he naturally has his reasons, why do you need to ask."

"Yes, it seems that you still lack a little heat in the doorway of doing business." A businessman began to point fingers, fighting for Jia Fu.

Jia Fu looked at the plum blossoms in the courtyard, picked up his wine glass, and stood up: "Everyone, although it is a cold winter now, the plum blossoms are in full bloom, and the bright moon is in the sky, which can be regarded as a full moon." Our generation of businessmen should be of one heart and one mind. Don't spoil the scenery in this beautiful scenery."

"Jia Yuanwai is right, we should work with one heart and one mind, everyone says yes." A businessman hurriedly chimed in.

An elderly businessman looked at the plum blossoms in the courtyard and sighed: "The old man loves plum blossoms the most in his life, but I am a businessman, although he is rich, he is not in danger, so he can't do anything about it."

"Jia Yuanwai still remembers that a few months ago, Yao Yuanwai was copied all over the house." As soon as these words fell, the originally fiery atmosphere was poured down like a basin of cold water, and there was silence in an instant. A middle-aged businessman couldn't help but interject and ask.

Jia Fu was stunned when he heard these words, and after a while, he saluted everyone: "How can I not know such a tragedy." In the past in Luoyang City, the situation was strange. It just so happened that the newspaper office was closed that day, and it was impossible to support Yao Yuanwai. This is Jia Fu's fault, and I hope you will forgive your sins."

"I am a businessman, although I have little wealth. but of low status, like the lamb to the slaughter. was taken by the powerful, officials, and bullies, and could only endure it silently, not daring to say something tautology. Every time I think of this, my heart is dripping blood, but my eyes have no tears to hang down." The old businessman complained bitterly, remembering the experience of most of his life. I don't know how many people's eyes and bullying have been suffered, a pair of old eyes, unconsciously moistened.

A low sobbing sounded, and the merchants were silent, and secretly wiped their tears. A businessman sighed softly: "This matter is not to be complained about by Jia Yuan, throughout the ancient and modern times, it is common sense that businessmen have an underground status." The way of the world is like this, and no one can be blamed."

"Today, Jia Yuanwai has a famous post, and we are waiting for a cheeky come. I just want to ask you, for the sake of fellow businessmen, to point out a clear path for us." A businessman couldn't wait to ask Jia Fu to get up.

An old businessman sighed and looked at Jia Fu: "Jia Yuanwai, a few months ago." What happened to Yao Yuanwai shocked me. Is the way of business really a dead end? “。

"I am cold, if I am not reluctant, this half of my life's work. I'm afraid that I have already washed my hands and returned to my hometown to spend my old age in peace. It's better than that day, carelessly. is targeted by these people, and the door is copied all over the house." Another elderly businessman sighed. A few months ago, Yao Yuanwai's family, wasn't it because of this that the door was copied? .

Jia Fu looked at the businessmen in the courtyard, with a sad look on his face. For the first time, there was a sense of mission. As a businessman, you should work hard. Create a good business environment for the business community. At least the legal income must wait for the due protection: "May I ask you, who knows where Yao Yuanwai's family is at this time." They have been stolen from all their wealth, and they have nothing to do, and they don't know how they are doing now."

"I don't know where the family is. Penniless, how will they live? Please also ask Jia to look at it, for the sake of our fellow businessmen. The suffering of the merchants, the above-mentioned court, I don't want anything. I only ask the court to come forward to protect our legitimate income from doing business. It can make the powerful, officials, and bullies a little jealous." The old merchant asked again, and then all the merchants in the courtyard agreed. All of a sudden, there were voices of pleading.

Seeing such a scene, Jia Fu looked at Liu Sheng, who was sitting on the side, his eyes full of help. Liu Sheng shook his head lightly and stood up: "Dare to ask you, even if you benefit the above-mentioned imperial court, will they really, will they be restrained?"

"Alas, we and other businessmen are like a plate of loose sand, weak and can be bullied. How could they easily give up this piece of fat." A businessman couldn't help but speak. They don't know that it is impossible for a huge court to be all-encompassing. Even if he came forward and gave orders, it was only an expedient measure.

Liu Sheng felt that the time was ripe and said his purpose: "I invited you here today to solve this problem."

"Who are you to dare to speak so loudly? You must know that for thousands of years, all dynasties and dynasties. There are countless businessmen who want to solve this problem. But the result is often in vain." A businessman couldn't help but asked. Between the tones, there was a hint of reprimand.

Immediately afterwards, the businessmen in the courtyard echoed one after another: "Young people have empty mouths and white teeth, and they are really not reliable in doing things, you must know that this matter is not as simple as you think."

"Even Jia Yuanwai didn't dare to admit this matter easily, where did you get the confidence to dare to speak out." A famous businessman made accusations one after another.

Liu Sheng inadvertently glanced at the clothes on his body. At this time, he is completely dressed as an ordinary down-and-out scholar. Not only did he smile dumbly, but he didn't expect it in a hurry today, but he forgot about it. A man recognizes his clothes, and a horse recognizes his saddle. The faces of the merchants are undoubtedly exposed, on the one hand, they are afraid of the powerful, and they are as weak as lambs waiting to be slaughtered. On the other hand, they look down on the poor and deceive the good and fear the evil, which makes people's teeth chill.

Jia Fu listened to these words, and the more he spoke, the more unseemly he became: "He is my best friend, the master of this mansion. The surname is Liu Mingsheng, have you ever heard of it?"

"Liu Sheng? Luoyang Shan Tang". At this time, the businessmen talked in a low voice, and asked around, who is Liu Sheng.

A businessman suddenly realized, and whispered to the people around him: "Have you noticed, on the plaque outside the house, there is indeed a huge Liu character written on it."

"I heard that this person is a great benevolent person, who founded a charity hall to help the poor and shelter orphans and orphans in the world. The financial resources are abundant, and now there are good halls in Luoyang and Chang'an."

"Your news is too late, and now Shantang has opened to Jiangnan."

"Isn't the good hall you are talking about founded by some monks and Taoist priests? How did you become human".

"It's a shame that you're a businessman, I don't know any of this news. Monks and Taoist priests are just the people he invited, I guess you must have never been to Shantang."

Someone looked mysterious and revealed a very exciting news: "It is said that he is talented in his chest and is a close friend of His Majesty."

"The prince's master in the folk is called the prime minister of cloth by His Majesty today." Another person immediately chimed in, showing off. It was as if it were him.

"The prince's master, that's not the prince's master, why don't we know."

"It's not the prince's master, but the prince's master in the folk."

"Prime Minister, even if it's a cloth coat, it shows its might."

Liu Sheng and Jia Fu sat down again, looked at the situation in front of them, and smiled without saying a word. Wait for the merchants in the courtyard to digest this information.
