Chapter 318: A Bunch of Invitations
Zeng Guohong was born in the most developed commercial family in Jiangnan County, the most developed business in the empire, since he was a child, he was famous for his literary talents in Jiangnan, and then entered the Imperial University for further study, and has been serving in the imperial capital, and has risen to the current position, he has a very deep relationship with the major wealthy families in the Jiangnan region of the empire, and also represents the commercial power of the Jiangnan region in the court.
Although he was born in a family, he is not from several major families, but his wife was born in the Yin family of the seven major families in Jiangnan, so he has a very close relationship with the gate valve families in Jiangnan.
However, Qin Duan has a good impression of this person, and the rapid development of the northwest economy is also related to his matchmaking, although his subjective purpose is for the business families in the south of the Yangtze River to obtain more profits, but objectively it has also greatly promoted the economic recovery of the northwest region.
Beiloulan is rich in products and has many special products, especially tobacco, lacquer, medicinal materials, wood and other materials are extremely lacking in the interior of the empire, especially tobacco and lacquer are in greater demand. The silk, cloth, salt, pottery, porcelain, tea, ironware, grain, luxury goods and other commodities that Beiloulan itself urgently needs are quite scarce locally, and they must rely on imports from the surrounding areas, especially silk, cloth, salt and other daily necessities are very expensive, and grain and tea are also bulk trading materials, and the complementarity between the two sides is very strong.
In addition, the economy of Beiloulan is relatively backward and needs to be developed urgently, and the annexation of various ethnic groups, including the Gaoyue people, provides considerable cheap labor for the economic take-off, but the lack of funds is in front of it. So, the huge business opportunities hidden here are enough to make smart businessmen and officials hit it off.
The two soon talked about a road, and initially reached some intentional agreements verbally, Zeng Guohong returned satisfied, Qin Duan also gained a lot, and both parties were happy.
Send Zeng Guohong away. Qin Dui's mood was even more comfortable, and he felt a little complacent. If the financial problem is solved, the development prospects of the northwest and North Loulan are simply bright.
Let's take a look at the congratulatory notes sent by the guards. In addition to the posts of several imperial relatives, there are also a large group of important ministers in the imperial court, including the empire.
Of course, there are a lot of posts from those well-informed families, business circles and other powerful people in other industries, and they all want to take this rare opportunity to make friends with this mysterious strongman from the northwest, after all, Qin Duan has stayed in the northwest for a long time, and has only had a short trip back to Beijing in the past few years, not to mention that he was just a small border city guard at that time. And this time the situation is very different, Qin Duan's identity has become one of the three major festival envoys of the empire, and this time he has won the favor of His Majesty the Emperor. He was promoted to the youngest duke of the empire, and concurrently served as the governor of the newly occupied North Loulan region.
If you can make friends with the celebrity in front of His Majesty the Emperor, then the benefits in the future are simply immeasurable. There are also many famous families with daughters to be married, and they have an extra eye to see if they can grandly package and launch their daughters in their families, in order to win a good son-in-law with a long future.
I saw that the guards were holding up a large number of colorful and exquisitely crafted posts. Qin Duan couldn't help but feel a big headache, and roughly estimated that there were no less than seventy or eighty copies. If you want to sift through it well, you have to put in a lot of effort to choose those who must be worshipped, those who need to be bowed back, and those that are beneficial.
But he is still quite unfamiliar with all the people in the imperial capital, and if he wants to distinguish which is more important and which is more urgent among these many posts, I am afraid that he is really incompetent. Fortunately, Wei Xianxian is in the house, with her help, it should be a trivial matter, just thinking about it, the door of the study was gently pushed open. After the rain and dew, Wei Xian Xian had an intoxicating and lazy style, her fluffy golden hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her big blue eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness, gently leaning on the edge of the door frame, and her coquettish appearance made Qin Du can't help but feel tempted again.
"Come, baby, I'm looking for you."
Forcibly suppressing the desire in his heart, Qin Duan tried his best to pretend to be calm, but those greedy eyes had already exposed what he wanted in his heart.
Seeing the appearance of her lover, Wei Xianxian's heart is sweeter than eating honey, and she always has the same charm in her lover's heart, which is what every woman craves. With a smile, the beauty twisted lightly ~ waist fat ~ buttocks, swaying, and happily came to Ailang's side, until Qin Dui lost two souls of three souls, and almost forgot the purpose of calling the beauty over.
Glancing at the thick pile of stickers on the desk, the smart Wei Xianxian guessed the purpose of Ai Lang's call to come over, picked up one casually and looked at it, and opened his lips lightly: "Jia Zhishan, a famous jewelry and jade merchant in the imperial capital, his snow building is known as the first floor of the jewelry industry in the imperial capital, if the women in the upper class of the imperial capital don't have two pieces of jewelry here, I'm afraid they won't dare to go out." ”
"Oh, that's an exaggeration? But I don't seem to have any friendship with this guy, and I don't have any hobby for jewelry and jade. ”
Qin Duan gently took the beauty into his arms, and let him sit on his lap, Wei Xianxian glanced at the door, there was no movement, and there was no struggle.
"You are now a celebrity in the imperial capital, and sooner or later you will have family members, that is, his potential big customers, and people should get to know you. Oh, by the way, the day before you came back, I seem to have seen him at Deng Xian's place. Wei Xianxian said as he grabbed the big hand that began to be dishonest under him.
"Oh, I see."
Qin Duan suddenly realized, but it was also a little strange, although Deng Xian accepted the task of selling the jewelry brought back from Loulan, how could he expose his relationship with himself? Or is it just a coincidence? It seems that he still has to ask Deng Xian.
The Yihong Lake in the dark night is particularly quiet, the breeze is light, sparkling, a qiē is so peaceful and quiet, only the sound of the breeze from time to time on the ancient trees by the lake.
Two burly figures walked leisurely on the path by the lake, and not far away, several armored guards followed closely behind them. The two of them ignored it, and happily pointed out the scenery around the lakeside as they walked forward.
"Juetian, that's probably the Cui Building,"
The middle-aged man dressed in dark brown chuckled loudly, pointing to the vague buildings towering on the small island in the lake in the distance, "It really looks like an independent cold autumn." ”
The climate of Yuejing is very pleasant, warm in winter and cool in summer, especially on the shore of the Red Lake, there is no cold and heat in all seasons, a rain becomes autumn, it is really a resort for self-cultivation. (To be continued......)
