Qian Duoduo raised his eyes, pretended to be surprised, and said, "Oh, Shopkeeper Li, you are not doing business well, what are you doing outside the customs?" ”

Those two people are Li Guo and Nie Xin, "We are used to being comfortable in the south, thinking that the snow is fluttering outside the gate, and there is a lot of game, so we are here to experience it." ”

Qian Duoduo whispered to Shanqi: "Two fat sheep." ”

Shanqi nodded in his heart, understanding the meaning of Qian Duoduo, these two people must also be a rich family, listening to the tone, these two people must be merchants in the Guannai. Now the Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Khan is very convenient for the merchants to do business, and merchants from the north and south have come to Shengjing to do business.

Qian Duoduo greeted Li Guo and Nie Xin, "Shopkeeper Li, I just met, how about a drink together?" ”

Li Guo nodded and smiled, "Just a little disturbing?" ”

"Don't bother, don't bother." Before Qian Duoduo could speak, Shanqi opened his mouth first. Fat sheep! Naturally, it's going to be slaughtered.

"In that case, then we're welcome." Li Guo and Nie Xin sat down.

Li Guo shouted to Xiao Er, raised the pheasant and hare in his hand, "Xiao Er, pick up these two kinds of game, and silver is indispensable if you do it well." ”

"Okay." Xiao Er went to the kitchen with the game.

The four of them set up cups and introduced each other. From Qian Duoduo's mouth, Shanqi knew that this person's surname was Li and he was a big businessman in Jiangnan. It's just that outside of the words, Shanqi heard that Qian Duoduo and this shopkeeper Li were not very familiar.

Qian Duoduo asked, "What?" Shopkeeper Li, do you really want to do business outside the Guanwai? ”

Li Guo shook his head: "That's not the case. The business outside the customs is controlled by the eight of you, and I can't interfere if I want to. ”

"I don't believe it, you just came to suffer outside the customs for nothing?" Qian Duoduo said with a smile.

Li Guo also smiled: "Actually, it's also looking at business opportunities." In addition, I really came to visit. ”

There is no flaw in this statement, because the people of the Ming Dynasty at that time liked to travel. Like Xu Xiake, who was written at the end of the Ming Dynasty, is one of them.

"And how did you travel? Did you find any business opportunities? Qian Duoduo squinted at Li Guo, looking like an old treacherous and cunning man.

"I didn't find business opportunities, but I found that the customs and customs outside the border and Jiangnan are indeed different." Li Guo replied.

"Oh? Shopkeeper Li, let's talk about it, what's the difference? Qian Duoduo asked. Shanqi was also listening.

Li Guo smiled, "It's just that the one outside the gate is extremely bold and a little too rough." And the one qiē in Jiangnan is extremely delicate and a little too fine. This is the difference between Kanwai and Jiangnan. If you really operate the two places in the future, you should take the meticulousness of Jiangnan to make up for the boldness outside the customs. And take the boldness outside the customs to make up for the meticulousness of Jiangnan. ”

This is a good thing to say, not only Qian Duoduo nodded, but also Shanqi couldn't stop nodding. Although Shanqi is not a businessman, he feels very reasonable when he hears Li Guo's words.

"But business isn't so easy. Haven't you heard that 'Chang'an rice is expensive, and it is not easy to live in vain'? The same is true for Shengjing! Qian Duoduo laughed.

"So God, we met the money shopkeeper!" Li Guo stood up and made a gesture to Qian Duoduo.

Qian Duoduo also hurriedly stood up, "Don't dare, don't dare, I can't do it, if you want to say that the strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake, if you want to live in Shengjing, you are still close to Brother Shanqi, you must know that he is a celebrity around Belle Hauge." ”

When Li Guo heard this, he hurriedly saluted Shanqi, "Look at it." We really don't know Taishan, and we have snubbed my brother, please forgive me. In the future, I will also ask my brother to take care of it. ”

"Where to speak, where to speak." Shanqi returned the salute while complaining in a low voice that Qian Duoduo should not be nonsense, so as not to let irrelevant people hear it and chew his tongue.

Qian Duoduo slapped his head and blamed himself, "Look at me." I've always been to eat in a private room, but today I was shouting in the hall. Let's go and change into a private room. ”

As he was talking, one of Qian Duoduo's subordinates came to find Qian Duoduo, saying that there was some trouble with the handover of the goods, and asked him to go back quickly.

Qian Duoduo is embarrassed.

Li Guo said, "Money shopkeeper, it's okay, since they are not outsiders, you can go by yourself if you have something, and the future will be long." ”

Shanqi saw that Qian Duoduo was leaving, and he couldn't sit still, so he got up and wanted to leave.

Li Guo hurriedly stopped, "Brother, why worry, I want to be close to my brother, don't I have a chance?" ”

Qian Duoduo also advised, "Brother, don't worry, you sit down a little, if things go well, I still have to come back." ”

Li Guo smiled and said, "I don't care if you come back or not, the three of us are going to drink well for a while." ”

Qian Duoduo smiled in the corridor, and Shanqi was invited to the private room by Li Guo.

When he arrived at the private room, Shanqi said embarrassedly, "The two of you are so polite." ”

Li Guoyi waved his hand, "Hey, let's go south and north, it's about friends!" As the saying goes, many friends have many roads, if you can meet your brother today, we will be friends in the future! Here, a toast! ”

Shanqi said that Li Guo couldn't do it, so he raised his glass and dried it.

"Actually, don't care, brother, to be honest, don't say that businessmen are profit-seeking, everyone is profit-seeking! In the future, if the brother is really capable, he may not be able to profit! From Jiangnan to the capital, we have cooperative friends everywhere, these friends either have a certain ability in the officialdom or in the locality, and they don't need to do anything, just take the money of the shares! "Li Guo is nonsense.

Shanqi was moved in his heart.

Although Shanqi is a cow, he is raised by Belle Hauge, similar to a minion or something. Although Shanqi's official position is not high, he is like a fox with a fake tiger, and he has no ability in himself, but the master behind him is hard. Moreover, Shanqi does have the trust of Hauge. In this way, Shanqi's status is actually not low, otherwise a big merchant like Qian Duoduo is very familiar with Shanqi.

Shanqi followed Belle Haug to fight for many years, although there were rewards, but those rewards were earned by pinning his head to the waistband of his trousers, which was not easy.

Shanqi has also seen officials and businessmen mingling with well-known people, and the money is made quickly. But I didn't meet it, and today seems to be good luck.

Shanqi coughed dryly, "I don't know much about business, but I know that I am a money shopkeeper, and I like to help my friends fight grievances the most, and the master of our family is the eldest son of Houjin Khan, and his power is also counted in Shengjing." Now that we're friends, if you can use me in the future, just speak! It doesn't matter if you have money or not. ”

Li Guo patted Shanqi on the shoulder, "Brother, it's really refreshing!" We've made a friend! Cheers again! ”

The more Li Guo and Shanqi talked, the hotter they became.

By this time, the pheasants and hares were ready and served.

Li Guo asked Shanqi to "Come on, eat this!" I made this game with my own hands! It's a pity that the fire gun is not allowed to be brought, otherwise it will hit more prey! ”

Speaking of this, Nie Xin, who was silent on the side, suddenly said, "By the way, brother, do you have a fire gun here, borrow us as an envoy, we are going to hunt in a few days, and your silver is indispensable." ”

"This." Shanqi hesitated for a moment, "I really have a firearm myself, but now I am very strict with firearms." Or then, through you! ”

"That doesn't work, how can I trouble you?" Li Guo waved his hand, "Actually, firearms are nothing in our eyes, you use an arquebus, right?" Like the firearm I left in the gate, it doesn't need to be ignited, and it will sound as soon as the trigger is pulled, you haven't seen it before! ”

"Flintlock pistol?" Shanqi asked.

Li Guo was taken aback, "Strange, do you know the flintlock pistol?" ”

Shanqi smiled, "Why don't I know about the flintlock pistol, I also shot once!" (To be continued)
