Chapter 041: Willingness
Ding Hao knew that he could have a relationship with Guangyuan General Cheng Shixiong by coincidence, which was a very valuable and very rare network resource, and this kind of relationship that was only linked by kindness was very shallow.
Maybe it's a bit silly to do this, but since he has such connections in his hands, he can't deceive himself. He is an orphan who grew up in a relatively indifferent environment, so he is also very sensitive to the love and care of others. In the eyes of some people, even if they don't take advantage of others, at least they have to exchange for equal value to be fair, but Ding Hao still believes in receiving the grace of dripping water from others and reciprocating it as a spring.
Ding Yu fell into the second young master Ding when he beat their mother and son to fight for them to relieve the siege, along the way to promote and reuse, but when he was in a difficult situation, he gave him silver to avoid danger, these behaviors suppressed a little selfishness in Ding Hao's heart, he has a purpose in life, that is, not to do things that make his conscience uneasy.
Ding Hao walked quickly to Ding Yuluo's room, and was about to lift the thick cotton door curtain, when he heard Ding Yuluo inside reprimanding categorically: "Shut up, don't say any more." ”
Ding Hao was stunned, and as soon as his hand touched the door curtain, he stopped there.
I heard Ding Yuluo say: "Steward Liu, how did you come up with such an idea?" If I do such a thing, thousands of people up and down the grain team will have to poke my backbone in the back, and will anyone be willing to do things for the Ding family in the future? ”
Ding Hao was stunned: "Liu Shiyi? When did he come, and what was he talking to the eldest lady about? Should I avoid it? ”
After Miss Tang's incident, Ding Hao had begun to pay attention to his informality, and now when he heard the discussion between the two, he instinctively wanted to avoid it, but as soon as he raised his foot, he heard Steward Liu mention his name, and Ding Hao stood up again.
The housekeeper Liu said in a low voice: "Miss, the little one also knows that this will make it difficult for the eldest lady to do it to Ding Hao." But...... The future of our Ding family can't be buried like this. That Tang girl is a relative of General Cheng, as long as we hand over Ding Hao to Miss Tang and ask Miss Tang to say a few kind words in front of General Cheng, this matter is still promising. If the eldest lady finds it difficult to come forward, the villain can quietly go to see Miss Tang and ask her to come and get someone, in this case, no one will know the truth. ”
When Ding Hao heard this, the fire in his chest burned vigorously, and he heard Ding Yuluo say in a deep voice: "No one knows? God knows, you know and I know, how can you say that no one knows? If it weren't for Ding Hao, my father and my brother, who have now been beheaded, I, Ding Yuluo, will also be confiscated as an official maid, and now you want me to kidnap him for my own personal gain, heaven and earth will not tolerate it! The demons cursed him. ”
"Miss, but our Ding family's business ......"
"Get out!"
"Miss......"
"Get out, get out, go!"
Hearing this, the anger in Ding Hao's chest miraculously disappeared, and when he heard Liu Shiyi's resignation, Ding Hao dodged and avoided a pillar. Liu Shiyi walked out of Ding Yuluo's room, shook his head and sighed softly, shrunk his neck and folded his hands, and walked slowly.
Ding Hao glanced at his back in disgust, lifted the curtain and walked into the room.
"You're not leaving?" Ding Yu turned around, a pair of willow eyebrows raised, and there was anger in his eyes.
Ding Hao smiled mildly and said softly, "It's me." ”
"...... you?" Ding Yuluo's shocked face disappeared and asked, "Did you hear that?" ”
"Yes, I heard it, and when I first heard it, I was really angry, but after listening to the words of the eldest lady, my anger disappeared. People have selfish intentions, and saints are no exception, let alone Liu Steward? He is the steward of the Ding family, and the Ding family is both prosperous and lossy, he naturally has to plan for the Ding family and himself, for me, he is a shameless villain, but for the Ding family, he is loyal. ”
Ding Yuluo smiled bitterly: "You don't have to be sarcastic about me. ”
Ding Hao smiled faintly: "This is not sarcasm, it is true." I was still thinking just now, if I were his master, then from my standpoint, even if I didn't take his opinion, such a character would have to be used. The eldest lady can rebuke him sharply, and Ding Hao is already grateful for such a treatment. ”
Ding Yuluo said ashamedly: "When the water is clear, there are no fish." I can't demand that everyone have the consciousness of great benevolence and righteousness, even if I can't do it myself, and I just want to have peace of mind in doing so. ”
Ding Hao smiled and said: "Ding Hao doesn't dare to talk about the righteousness of the festival, and I have only one way to behave in a way that makes my conscience uneasy." That's why I went and came back to see the eldest lady. ”
Ding Yuluo heard what he said, his eyes were slightly fixed, and he asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Ding Hao said: "This time, the Ding family's grain transportation went wrong, almost causing a catastrophe, it seems that General Guangyuan, under the anger, is deliberately canceling the Ding family's right to monopolize grain and grass." ”
Ding Yulian sighed faintly: "Yes, I have asked many people, but General Guangyuan has never let go, alas! This journey to transport grain, no matter how hard I can bear it, but in the face of those slippery officials, I am really powerless, and now I am physically and mentally exhausted, if it is not for the Ding family's huge family business, the expenses are really large, so many years have been relying on the right to this grain and grass monopoly, once the consequences of losing are unimaginable, I really want to abandon it, and return to Bazhou immediately. ”
Ding Hao knew that in addition to operating land, the Ding family also opened many pawnshops, grain and oil stores, laundry and dyeing shops, ......, and the variety and scope of their business were constantly expanding.
Ding Hao said: "So I went and returned, just to have a good discussion with the eldest lady and see how to resolve this deadlock." ”
Ding Yuluo shook his head, sat down tiredly by the kang, and said softly: "Dumb, you also sit down." ”
Ding Hao walked over as he said, sat on the other side of the kang table, turned his head to look at her, Ding Yuluo looked ahead intently, his two delicate eyebrows were slightly twisted, the light shone on her side face, as smooth as jade, full and smooth forehead, straight nose bridge, and water chestnut-like lips, forming a beautiful and vivid silhouette.
Only the long and neat eyelashes blinked gently, showing that the silhouette was alive, and then, the beautifully shaped lip flap also opened: "Dumb, let me tell you the truth, my father was in Guangyuan for the right of this franchise, I don't know how much effort it took to get the consent of the general Guangyuan at that time, at that time, this was also the territory of the Zhe clan, but at that time they were attached to the Liu clan of the Northern Han Dynasty......"
Ding Hao knew that the end of the Tang Dynasty was in turmoil, when the world's heroes established the country and called the emperor, there was a Han country here, because there was a Han country in Panyu, Guangzhou in the south, and the founder of the country was also Liu's, the world made a distinction between the north and the south, and now the Southern Han is still there, but the Northern Han Dynasty only has three or five remaining cities before the Northern Tartars and the Great Song Dynasty.
After the Tang Dynasty, the Five Dynasties, the Song Dynasty, the Shiju Prefecture, the northwest of the feudal town, has always been attached to whoever is strong, before the Song Dynasty, he also did the courtier of the Northern Han Dynasty.
Ding Yuluo said slowly: "Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, all the way to the south, exterminating Shu and Jing, and constantly expanding, and the north is relatively peaceful, so there are more large households in the northwest region to land development, because my Ding family dominates the grain sales in Guangyuan, it has cut off the financial route of many people, and now the Ding family has an accident, how can they not hear the wind and fall into the ground?" ”
"You mean?"
Ding Yuluo pursed his lips and said: "The Ding family doesn't know how much grain they transport to Guangyuan every year, some of which are produced by our own family, and some of which are purchased. Now that something has happened to the Ding family, General Guangyuan has the intention to cancel the right of the Ding family's franchise, can't those grain merchants smell it? They will inevitably go up and down and fan the flames. The people I asked for this time are all officialdom officials who have been fed with silver by the Ding family for so many years, but ......"
She smiled coldly: "These people were originally open-minded when they saw money, but now they have seen my money, but there are many people who prevaricate and refuse to come forward to make peace, if my expectations are not bad, it should be those who want to replace the Ding family have secretly made moves, there are these people who are fueling the troubles, and General Guangyuan intends to cancel my franchise, we have never dealt with them, people and land are born, what else can we do?" Even if my father arrives from Bazhou now, I'm afraid it's too late. ”
"That's not necessarily," Ding Hao said: "It's man-made, I didn't try, I didn't wait for the final ending, I can't say that I failed!" ”
Ding Yu glanced at him and said, "Why, can you still come up with a way to climb the plow in the snow and solve this deadlock?" ”;
