Chapter 710: Spoiling the Situation (Part II)

On the day of the wedding banquet, the scene was also very grand, from Lixiangyuan to Guangzhou Wharf, all within the scope of the long table banquet, every other mile a kitchen, wine, meat and food enough.

Although the scene of this wedding banquet is large, but it is not extravagant, except for the Guangzhou Wharf and Lixiangyuan, the rest of the place is almost the same as the ordinary long table banquet, the tables, chairs, benches and tableware are all from the surrounding people, except for the ingredients and red silk, this wedding banquet, there are not many things added.

A month in advance, Yang Meng released the news and sent out a post, the chief officials of the five major commercial ports are all within the scope of Yang Meng's invitation, because it was expected in advance that Ergin and others would come to disrupt the situation, Yang Meng also wanted to take advantage of their time to disrupt the situation, so that the chief officials of the five major commercial ports, under the pressure of England, became a monolith.

The banquet in Lixiangyuan, in addition to the officials are merchants, such a thing, the fifteen business alliances cannot be absent.

In addition to the chief officials of the five major commercial ports and the heads of the fifteen business alliances, Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang, and Wang Yide, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, also brought the four major governors under him to celebrate.

As soon as the long table banquet opened, Yang Meng rode a horse from Lixiangyuan, greeting guests all the way to the Guangzhou wharf, which was supposed to be in the afternoon, but the Pearl River Estuary came to the villain, and Yang Meng had to take the first step.

When I arrived at the Guangzhou wharf, the scene of Erjin was not small, and the team of more than 30 people with cats and dogs seemed to really want to stir up the situation!

"Congratulations to Yang Butang, Minister Plenipotentiary of England to China, Ergin, Minister Plenipotentiary of France, Gro, Minister Plenipotentiary of Millican, Admiral Eros, and Minister Putiyatin of China for their bold visit. I also hope that Yang Butang will receive it. ”

Minister Plenipotentiary of the Three Kingdoms. The admiral of a country is also the minister to China. It seems that Britain, France, the United States, and Russia have reached an agreement on some things.

Pasha Li, who boasted of his grandiose scene, was also arrogant when he spoke, as if the Qing Dynasty behind Yang Meng had become a storage at his mercy.

"Oh...... Hexi is coming, did you bring a congratulatory gift? The so-called hand does not hit the smiley man, but. You are different from the people of Guangzhou, you can't eat and drink for nothing without bringing congratulatory gifts to Lao Tzu!

If you want to attend Lao Tzu's wedding banquet, it's easy! A congratulatory gift of two thousand taels of silver for one person, more than 30 cats and dogs, let's take an auspicious number, 88,888 taels of silver, then you are guests, without this price code, where do you come from, where do you go back, Lao Tzu does not receive evil guests!

Come on! Lift the scales up. If the ministers of these countries take out the congratulatory silver, please go to the Lixiang Garden. No! Fuck them off! ”

Yang Meng, who was dressed in a red brocade robe, was not polite, and rode back to Pashali's words, thinking that Erjin and the others who came to demonstrate, where did they bring congratulatory gifts? At this point, the scene was deadlocked.

"Those who come are all guests, why should Yang Butang refuse people to be thousands of miles away?"

Pa Xia Li couldn't have imagined that Yang Butang's answer was like this, in terms of Qing etiquette, even if they were unreasonable, on an occasion like today, Yang Butang would not speak ill of each other, but unfortunately, he was facing Yang Meng.

"Give the silver, take a seat! Get out of the way without money! If you don't have cash, I think your sea ship is good, and if you bet on Lao Tzu's side, it should be congratulatory silver.

Those who come are all guests, this is true, but you are all evil guests, Lao Tzu's banquet in Lixiang Garden, it is hard to find a thousand gold, one person collects you 2,000 taels, it is already a matter of big face, eat and drink for nothing, think beautifully! ”

Yang Butang, who has always advanced and retreated, suddenly embarrassed everyone, standing on the dock, Erjin and others are also embarrassed, this etiquette is not in place, it is a barbaric behavior, Erjin and others, who claim to be civilized people, naturally can't accept Yang Meng's cynicism and the white eyes of the surrounding people.

The conversation between Pa Xia Li and Yang Meng was translated to the thousands of people present, and after Yang Meng and Pa Xia Li finished speaking, the scolding one after another became one.

Pashali, who was full of embarrassment, turned around and discussed with Erjin and the others, and then helplessly pointed to a half-hearted merchant ship.

If you turn back and leave, the four countries will not be able to raise their heads in front of Yang Meng, if there is only Yang Meng alone, if there is only the people of the Qing Kingdom, but Yang Butang is a despicable villain, after his bad words are finished, the merchants of various countries stranded in Guangzhou also surround them, this rude thing, if it is spread by the merchants of various countries, the already passive English government will be even more passive, if it is named barbaric by the merchants of various countries, many things will not be easy to do.

"Good! The ministers of Britain, France, the United States and Russia congratulated 88,888 taels of silver, and threw a lot of money along the way to celebrate!

Shout out the momentum of the envoys of the four countries to Lao Tzu!

Come with me, ladies and gentlemen. ”

If you don't accept the offer, you won't be ashamed? This kind of face-saving trick, Yang Meng has in his stomach, he sang a fat song, and a team of hundreds of people poured out from below.

These are the new army of the Yang family, and the two of them have a basket of 100 catties of money, and after Yang Meng shouted, this big money was squandered.

"The ministers of the four countries are here to congratulate! The third master looks at the ......"

Yang Meng rode a horse, the counterpoint of the ministers of the four countries walked, and the big money rain jingled, and followed everyone down to the gate of Lixiang Garden, and the banquet attended by hundreds of thousands of people paved the way with copper coins was a big conversation, but the faces of Erjin and others had an expression of eating, and that Ba Xia Li was even more so, I didn't expect that his strategy to hit the door was so vulnerable in the hands of Yang Butang, I knew that things would develop like this, and it was better to turn around and leave on the dock just now.

Yang Butang's people, the big money squandered all the way, no one picked it up, and from time to time glanced at the Qing natives who participated in the banquet, whether they were dressed luxuriously or not, the look on their faces was contemptuous.

Copper coins worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, for Yang Meng, are things that pave the way, these tens of millions of dollars are spilled out, and Yang Meng doesn't need other effects, he just needs to establish an impression of foreigners being inferior in the hearts of the people of Guangzhou who attended the banquet.

People are different from each other, although the people of the Qing Dynasty are low, but foreigners are even lower than the people. This is what Yang Meng wants to convey. Treat Yangyi as a pig and dog. There will be no psychological pressure to kill in the future.

The big scene at the Guangzhou wharf had already been brought back to Lixiangyuan by Qin Ziqi's people, and before Yang Meng and others arrived, the main gate of Lixiangyuan was already crowded with officials and businessmen.

"Duke De, Yang Butang's move is extraordinarily uplifting! Yangyi led the horse to fall and paved the road with tens of millions of dollars, and it was a beautiful talk!

The article of Degong is amazing, and the two of us wrote a song together while the wine was prosperous, which was circulated in the five major commercial ports. Let us the people of the Qing Dynasty see how humble this Yangyi is! ”

Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang, and Wang Yide, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, had the highest status, and the two of them naturally stood in the best position, looking at the brand-new copper coins scattered with golden light in the sky, Ye Mingchen also picked up Yang Meng's stinky feet.

"Zhongtang, this matter is Meng Lang!"

Although he is also a governor, Wang Yide, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, is far inferior to Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang and a scholar of Tirenge.

"Meng Lang what? As long as you can suppress the arrogance of Yangyi, it is a good way, and people of my generation should also learn from Yang Butang. Since the battle of Emperor Gengzi, this foreigner has been arrogant in the territory of the Qing Dynasty.

You see. Those people who cheered, even if this big money was paid by the government, it was worth it.

After this incident, the Liangguang government office issued another 100,000 taels of silver, and the road from Guangzhou Wharf to Lixiangyuan was paved with copper coins, and this road was called Contempt Road! ”

Ye Mingchen's words, the more he spoke, the louder he became, and the words not only attracted the applause of the people from the Liangguang and Fujian and Zhejiang government offices, but also the businessmen who had been doing business with foreigners.

"Two adults, we have this money out, if the two adults have written the repertoire, we will also do the things of this servant, the people of the Qing Dynasty do not know the domineering and ambition of the Yangyi, but we and other merchants know, this Yangyi destroys my heart of the Qing Dynasty will not die, and this contempt road is pleasing to the ear!"

With the continuous expansion of Yang Meng's military power, Ye Mingchen also knows who is the king of Guangzhou.

In order to protect the family, for the future future, Ye Mingchen, who is in the prime of life, disregards the respect of the middle hall, and also worships under Yang Meng.

"Hmmm! Zhongtang's words are very good, let's not divide each other, there are one people here, after eating, they have to come up with some tracks, if it is written deeply in the hearts of the people, Bendu and Ye Zhongtang have their own rewards! ”

As the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Wang Yide's eyesight is naturally not bad, as soon as he heard that Ye Mingchen was holding stinky feet for Yang Laosan, this one turned a little in his mind, and he went directly into the gang.

In the south of the Yangtze River, Yang Laosan's power is too great, don't look at the only two governors who came today, according to Wang Yide's knowledge, Yunnan-Guizhou, Sichuan, Huguang, Liangjiang, Caoyun, Donghe, the six governors have sent generous gifts, in addition to Zhili, Shaanxi and Gansu, the nine governors of the Qing Dynasty outside the customs, five of them are to give Yang Laosan face, if he says anything crooked, I am afraid that he will also be dismissed!

In addition to these people, Zeng Zuo, Shen Guifen, Tuo Ming'a, and He Chun, who suppressed bandits in Jiangnan, also sent generous gifts.

"Haha...... Degong is really a wonderful person, just follow the meaning of Degong, let's sing this big show with Yang Butang! ”

As Yang Laosan's disciple, Ye Mingchen spared no effort to hold his stinky feet, since he joined Yang Laosan's disciples, Ye Mingchen also understood a lot of things, after bowing his head, the political affairs of Liangguang have also become extremely handy, what does this mean Ye Mingchen is very clear, but Yang Laosan is powerful, he has already gotten on the thief ship, and if he wants to come down, he has no way, so he can only take his home and go to the dark.

As for Ye Mingchen's contribution, Yang Meng's side also did not refuse, as for the cruel words he said before, he naturally had to sit back, politicians talked, I am afraid that many times they will not be able to catch up with the fart, a fart either has a sound or a smell, this politician's words, sometimes, there is not even a sound or taste.

"Ministers, these two are the Governors of Liangguang and Fujian and Zhejiang of the Qing Dynasty, and I want to come to the ministers to stir up the situation, there is a purpose, today's wedding banquet, the pomp and circumstance of the ministers is not small, the three plenipotentiary ministers, an admiral and the minister.

Naturally, we can't be stingy here, the two governors, one Nanyang minister, and the four governors are not bad in status with you, in addition to these adults, nine out of ten merchants from the five major commercial ports also came to the wedding banquet in the main hall.

What do you ministers have to say, brew it in your stomach first, we are enough to represent the attitude of the Qing Dynasty, although this is a banquet, but if you say the wrong thing, it may make the relationship between the Qing Dynasty and the countries go to a state of no return, be careful!

Shall we take a seat? ”

The anger of Erjin and others, Yang Meng saw it in his eyes, and he was stripped naked when he came to the door to slap his face, and it was difficult for anyone to bear this matter!

After Yang Meng introduced the people in front of the Lixiang Garden to Pa Xia Li, Pa Xia Li translated them one by one, and the anger on the faces of the ministers of the four countries was slowly removed, who would have thought that the real big thing was decided on such an occasion?
