Chapter Sixty-Nine: Pulling Relations
The news of Qian Duoduo's return was quickly known by several other shopkeepers, and everyone was invited to eat in Saijiangnan, the largest restaurant in Zhangjiakou.
Qian Duoduo had already finished the matter at this time, and he had nothing to do, so he came to the banquet, and during the banquet, Qian Duoduo told Liang Yongdong what he told again. The crowd was amazed and amused.
Everyone asked, "Money shopkeeper, do you want to rest for a while, or do you want to work for your boss immediately?" ”
Qian Duoduo smiled wryly, "Although our owner tried his best to keep it, but I caused a loss to the owner this time, how can I have the face to go back?" ”
"Money shopkeeper, this is not right, you are a natural disaster*, even if you operate normally, you don't make money every time, it has nothing to do with us. When the proprietors asked us to be shopkeepers, this article was written on the letter of appointment, not to mention that you had a guarantee in hand. The crowd said.
"I just feel sorry, and I have no news from my wife and son, so I want to rest for a while."
"Yes, yes, it's better to rest for a while."
During the banquet, Qian Duoduo worked hard to relieve his hands, and Wang Shangzhi, the chief treasurer of Wang Dengku, one of the eight major families, followed.
"Old Qian, our brothers have never seen each other, so I'll tell you the truth! I heard that you resigned from the Liang family, so I told our owner about you, and our owner sincerely wants to invite you over! Old Qian, in this way, even if you want my corner, it's okay! Wang Shangzhi straightened his neck.
"Lao Wang, I don't know your kindness? It's just that I'm in a bad mood during this time, so let me think about it again. "Qian Duoduo excused.
"Okay, old money, let's decide, if you've stayed enough, you can come to me." Wang Shangzhi patted Lao Qian on the back.
"Don't shoot! Don't shoot! I saw that I was urinating on my clothes. Okay, if I do do something, I'll be the first to let you know. Qian Duoduo nodded.
Qian Duoduo has a house in Zhangjiakou, which is not big or small, and it is also a house with more than a dozen rooms. Although Liang Yongdong is disloyal to the country, the rest of the things are done very well, and when Qian Duoduo is not there, he sends people to clean up from time to time. So, now the house is not damaged, just a little dusty.
Following Qian Duoduo's two entourages, who were also two apprentices, they cleaned the house for a few days and cleaned it up. During this period, Liang Yongdong's daughter Liang Shiyin came several times with servants and maids and brought some daily necessities to visit. Liang Yongdong didn't care about it after he found out, and he also hoped that Qian Duoduo would come back after a while.
When Qian Duoduo worked for the Liang family, Liang Shiyin was just a child. Qian Duoduo has a high status, and he can go to Liang Yongdong's house to wear the house and enter the hospital, although Liang Shiyin is a child, he is very popular. So every time he came back from business, Qian Duoduo unconsciously bought some gadgets that the children liked and gave them to Liang Shiyin.
So, Liang Shiyin was as close to Qian Duoduo as an uncle. And Qian Duoduo also treats Liang Shiyin like a daughter.
Now that he saw Liang Shiyin treating him as usual, the soft thing in Qian Duoduo's heart was touched, and the eyes that looked at Liang Shiyin were full of affection.
Therefore, Qian Duoduo thought in his heart, our tiger master said that he wanted to rob Liang Yongdong, why bother? Let's just make our own money, and slowly stay up for a few years, and the business will definitely become more and more prosperous. If Li Guo must rob Liang Yongdong, it is enough to dissuade him himself, it is best to leave Zhangjiakou quickly, so as not to cause trouble, and he will not be able to do business.
Li Guo didn't know Qian Duoduo's inner thoughts, but Li Guo now knew that Qian Duoduo's affairs had been done, so he went to find a relationship with Nie Xin.
I have a long history in China, a vast land and abundant resources, and the relationship between people is also complicated. As the saying goes, there are people in the DPRK and China who are easy to do, and this is what we are talking about.
Before I came, this was planned.
Li Guoben disagreed, and scolded, "Lao Tzu just wants to do business, not a duck!" Looking for a relationship? ”
Li Guo was immediately pressed to the chair by Nie Xin, Zhao Youbin, and Sun Dengke.
"You have to find it, it's not right for people to be in a different place and not find some backers, Master Hu, didn't you also find the relationship between Hong Chengchou and Lu Jiuming for the two territories of Hequ and Fugu?" Three people asked.
choked Li Guo so much that he didn't say a word.
So, Nie Xin and others took care of this matter, of course, it was the master of the three sides, that is, Zhao Youbin's distant cousin Zhao Youting, to help contact.
Zhao Youting's eyes rolled, and he found Hong Chengchou, "My lord, just now Quan Zhihuan and Li Twelve and the first cadres of Hequ came to write a letter. ”
"Is there something wrong with them?" Hong Chengchou asked, his words were very easy-going.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a little bit unprofessional. They want to do business! Zhao Youting said.
Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Will they?" Nonsense! ”
"They said in the letter that the current military salary is insufficient and morale is low, so they want to do some business and earn a little money." Zhao Youting looked at Hong Chengchou's face.
"It's true, now that the military salary is in arrears, it's really not a way to go on like this." Hong Chengchou said, "Although there is a horse market on the three sides now, the scale is not large, and the transaction is limited, not as big as Zhangjiakou, so I am afraid it is not easy to make money here." ”
"My lord, they just want to send someone to Zhangjiakou to do business. They said, no matter what, you have to give it a try, if you can really make money, you will never forget about adults. ”
Hong Chengchou stroked his beard and scolded, "Nonsense!" "I turned around to leave, but I turned around again" In this case, you might as well send a private message to Xuanda in your private name, isn't that Xuanda's master from your Shaoxing? Remember, they can't be said to be soldiers. ”
"In that case, then I will do as you wish." Zhao Youting stepped back and went to write a letter.
So, Li Guo and Nie Xin took Zhao Youting's letter and came to Xuanda and visited the master of the governor of Xuanda, who heard that Nie Xin was also from Shaoxing, and he didn't feel cordial. And after reading the contents of the letter, he immediately presented the letter to Zhang Guozhen, who was the governor of Xuanda at the time.
Zhang Guozhen looked at the letter, the content of the letter is private, but the letterhead is three-sided, the content inside is very simple, just said that there is an idler Li, who wants to go to Zhangjiakou to do business, I don't know the path, please point out and so on.
This letter is not simple to write, I don't know what business the path does, and there is something in the words. That means you look at it.
Zhang Guozhen smiled and said to the master, "I am a border town official with Hong Chengchou, and this face is to be given." ”
The master replied, "The two people who came from the three sides said that it was still cold, and they offered five thousand taels of charcoal to the adults." ”
"Really? It seems that these two people are the material for doing business. In this case, you need to carefully instruct Lu Wu, the general of Zhangjiakou Fort, to take good care of them. I won't be able to see the people from the three sides, you can reply to the three sides, please rest assured. After Zhang Guozhen finished speaking, he retreated to the back hall.
Li Guo thanked the master for leaving a thousand taels of silver, and came to Zhangjiakou with the letterhead of the Xuanda Yamen. After Qian Duoduo finished his work, Li Guo and Nie Xin went to find Lu Wu, the general of Zhangjiakou.
Hearing the soldier's message, Lu Wu invited Li Guo and Nie Xin in.
Nie Xin took out Xuanda's letterhead and handed it to Lu Wu, Lu Wu looked at it and said, "Why did you come?" ”
Li Guo and Nie Xin looked at each other and said secretly, what's the matter? Are we late?
