Chapter 55: Snobbery, Power Competition, and Bragging

Dugu Xinci stared at a few hairpins and ordered the envoy to hide in the kitchen, and his heart was like ten thousand black water horses passing by.

The three friends of Fanbang knew the hairpins of the Lijing Gate who supervised them, and at this moment, they saw them like mice hiding from the old cat, and they also looked at each other.

"Continue to drink" Dugu Xinci snorted coldly, isn't it Princess Yiyan Tang? To eat people or not to eat? If you want to eat something, you have to have good teeth.

Princess Jingshan changed back into women's clothes, wearing a bare-shouldered long skirt, and a large-sleeved saro shirt on her upper body, lightly covering the ****, causing the skin on her upper body to be faintly exposed, and she was romantic. Comb a fallen horse bun, on the cheeks and temples with rouge dye painted two red crescent-shaped ornaments, shaped like a string moon, complicated like scars, eyes with spring, waist twist like willows.

Dugu Xinci almost spit out the rice she had just eaten, and quickly took a sip of wine to suppress her shock.

Princess Jingshan went to the lobby to look for Dugu Xinci, but was told that she was still in the kitchen canteen, so she searched all the way, but unexpectedly several Fanbang men were here.

Princess Jingshan was not angry in her heart, and when she saw a few rough barbarians staring at her, she turned her anger into joy, and then raised her head, walked towards Dugu Xinci with a smile, and said with a smile:

"The Far Eastern Hou has a good amount of wine, and all of you are unconscious, but you are still drinking yourself here"

"An old friend came to visit, and he sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman," Dugu Xinci pointed to three friends from Fanbang.

"If you want to know each other with the Hou of the Far East, can you find a quiet place?" Princess Jingshan said again.

"Today is drunk, and there are old friends who haven't seen each other for more than a year, can Princess Jingshan rest for the time being and talk about it in detail tomorrow?" Dugu Xinci dared to be alone in a room with a dry firewood.

"Why did the Marquis of Far East reject Yan Yan? A certain pair of Far Eastern Hou Ke have admired for a long time, "Princess Jingshan seems to be drunk and obsessed, regardless of the eyes of several Fanbang people, and bluntly flirtatious.

Dugu Xinci shivered, and hurriedly invited Princess Jingshan to sit down. Think about it with a wry smile:

"A barbarian on a certain side, how can he be favored by nobles? It's just that Princess Jingshan is coming today, there must be something important to talk about, and several of them here are my siblings, Princess Jingshan has something to say."

"The Far Eastern Hou can hurt my ice heart," Princess Jingshan made a dripping shape.

"Princess Jingshan presides over the inner library, and she is a strange woman in the world, why do you have to complain like this?" Dugu Xinci sighed, rubbing his chin without need.

"A certain weak woman, how can she be praised by the Marquis of the Far East" Princess Jingshan burst into tears and laughed.

"If Princess Jingshan doesn't say anything, she should lead her old friend to rest," Dugu Xinci continued to sigh.

"Is the Far Eastern Hou as a tiger?" Princess Jingshan finally understood that today's elaborate dress was for the blind to see, so she lowered her face.

"It's not that you're afraid of you like a tiger, the princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, a certain should be respectful and stay away, if there is something important, please speak up" Dugu Xinci said bluntly.

"The Marquis of Far East has no heart for the wind and the moon, so he said bluntly" Princess Jingshan, who calmed down, suddenly became luxurious, and the cold of the Yantang royal family arose.

"Please speak bluntly," Dugu Xinci squinted and took a sip of wine.

"Is the fireworks trade the host of the Far Eastern Hou?" Princess Jingshan directly mentioned fireworks.

"Whether the princess believes it or not, she is not interested in buying and selling fireworks, if the princess comes for this, I am afraid that it is better to stay in Beijing and negotiate with the Duke of Qi." Dugu Xinci said indifferently.

"But the initiation of this transaction was the idea of the Far Eastern Hou, with the gang of barbarians in Lijingmen, I am afraid that there is no such fine thought? The recipe is also in the hands of the Far Eastern Hou, right? Princess Jingshan obviously didn't believe it.

"A certain formula is also in the hands of Lijingmen, fireworks and gunpowder are the country's great plans, and private retention is a big rebellion," Dugu Xinci said coldly.

"Haha, the wealth is moving, the ambition of the Far Eastern Hou is not in the business journey, but in the official career, a certain saint is in the treasury, deeply favored, if the Far Eastern Hou takes a certain as a help, a certain is willing to help" Princess Jingshan seduced.

"A certain ambition, not in the temple, but in the mountains and rivers," Dugu sighed.

"Why should the Marquis of the Far East deceive people? You offend the king of martial arts, offend the royal family, contradict the Song Xianggong, offend the ministers, suggest the rotation of the generals, offend the generals, you are now attached to the saint, do not look at the ministers, only dogs and horses, if according to a certain one, a certain will definitely say the royal family with Ruguan, the prince is unexpected, such as the Duke of Chu and the Duke of Jin Guogong are afraid of easy to get. "Princess Jingshan continues to bewitch, you are now making enemies on all sides, don't want to be a direct minister, as long as you are a saint's dog and horse, you can still be a powerful minister.

"A certain person is really not in the temple, Princess Jingshan is afraid that she will play the piano to the cow" Dugu Xinci continued to be indifferent.

"Far Eastern Hou, you are really stubborn, even if you can't make you a powerful minister, but a certain let you be a prisoner of the order, a certain has been in charge of the treasury for many years, thousands of people are driven by a certain person, and a certain knows that you have industries in Qinglongfang and Shengdaofang, and it is not difficult to make it disappear with a certain word."

Dugu Xinci silently drank wine, and Princess Jingshan was moved by her heart, so she tried to see the dagger:

"Fireworks trading has been coveted by Wang Yuanbao, looking at Chang'an, there are only a few people who are not afraid of it, a certain is in it, the fireworks workshop is in Gongchuan, if a certain joint force, it will be monopolized, the entire Chang'an and even Yantang will not let someone do whatever he wants?"

"A certain person who knows that you are still afraid of Lijingmen, Feng Yuanyi's people who are still in prison are the same as you, if you are interested, you can be recommended to be the head of Lijingmen."

"The fireworks formula is not afraid that Lijingmen will not be offered, but a much-needed workshop is easy to establish, but the skilled hands are not easy to find, the skilled hands of Lijingmen are all in front of Ruzhishan, if you say it, I am afraid that half of Thailand will go with you, and a certain will be treated favorably"

"You are one of the founders of Far East Merchants Bank, you have your own means, you are now trapped in the Rim River, a certain willingness to rise for you, help you to shake"

Dugu Xinci looked at Princess Jingshan who was more and more excited the more she spoke, and suddenly said, "In the fifth year of Shenlong, the princess was in charge of the inner library at the beginning, and it was barren, and then the princess was exhausted.

Princess Jingshan heard Dugu Xinci's praise, but she still couldn't stop bowing her head, and the stubborn stone finally nodded.

Dugu Xinci continued, "In the ninth year of Shenlong, the development of the inner treasury was blocked, and the Shenlong suffered losses in ten years. ”

"Where do you know? Lijing Gate? Princess Jingshan's face was ugly.

"Princess Jingshan has four other businesses in Kyoto, two in Luoyang, one in Puzhou, and one in Yangyi, I don't know if it's true?"

"How dare you investigate so-and-so?" Princess Jingshan was furious: "But Feng Yuanyi, that old slave said that it was with you? ”

"The princess's words can make the industries of Qinglongfang and Shengdaofang go up in smoke?" Dugu Xinci sneered, "Do you know, who are these three old friends?" ”

Princess Jingshan sneered, and her eyes didn't bother to patrol.

"This is the prince of the ghost king, but also Yu Zhi rides the captain, this is the heir of the driving Du Mei Stalin, this is the deputy envoy of Fusang, Fujiwara Mayang" Dugu Xinci introduced them one by one, and suddenly said word by word: "Fifty percent of the Far East Merchants Association is from the country of flowing ghosts, and three percent of the mountain goods are from the driving of Dumei, and Fusang also has 10,000 catties of cooked copper for Yantang every year, and a certain Far East Dugu Tianxing can also be halved in a word."

Princess Jingshan was shocked and looked at Dugu Xinci in disbelief.

"A certain former great magician, now also a magician, a certain is the heir of the king of Liaoyang County, the empire is handed down to the Far East, but you come to threaten a certain one?" Dugu Xinci sneered.

"A certain is a heavenly dog and horse, and it is also a saint's dog and horse. If you have a heart, you can live in Chang'an to pile up gold and jade, drive Lijingmen or three provinces and six departments, a certain self-watch, praise your women, but a certain avoidance in the Rim River, two ears do not listen to the outside of the window, as the saying goes, to beat the dog needs to see the owner's face, who provokes a certain person, a certain will say and the sage to judge "Dugu Xinci is too lazy to look at the princess of Jingshan who has a full face like a mature crab."

"Power, your honey is arsenic, if there is a mistake in a certain act, there will be a saint to teach you, Princess Jingshan is afraid that she is not qualified enough" Dugu Xinci continued to offend ruthlessly.

"Something is not qualified? Dugu Langjun is afraid that he is overestimating himself, right? A certain is not a royal history in the Cheng nor a martial king, my actions are for the royal family to share the worries, for the saint to solve the problem, you sin in so-and-so, that is, sin in the sage"

"Sin against you is sin against the saints?" Dugu Xinben disdains "a certain day also needs to ask the saint, whether the sin is also sin in the saint?" ”

"I am surnamed Yan, the sister of the saint, how can you share the worries of the saint with your foreign surname Dog and Ma?"

"Princess Jingshan has a good means, a certain is convinced, and a certain will go to inform the sage, why do you need foreign ministers in the world surnamed Yan, and the Ziwei in the service will all belong to the princess of Jingshan, and the world will also be governed by Dugu Xinci.

"You can wait and see the means of a certain person" Princess Jingshan was shocked and angry, flicked her sleeves, revealing the snow white on her chest, but she didn't care about it, got up and left.

"Princess Jingshan, meeting is fate, and a certain also reminds you: too peaceful and happy Yin Jian is not far away" Dugu Xinci raised his head and said.

Princess Taiping, the sister of the first emperor and the youngest daughter of Emperor Wu, was deeply favored by the emperor's father, mother, and queen's brother and nephew.

Princess Anle, the first beauty of Yan and Tang, is highly favored, can open a mansion and set up officials, bribe and sell officials, and have more subordinates under the princess, also known as the power of the sky, but she seeks the title of the princess, and finally becomes a sweet dream.

Princess Yan Yan of Jingshan paused, but snorted coldly and went out.

Dugu Xinci took out a cigar and slowly lit it and began to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog, and at this moment Feng Yuanyi came out with a hairpin flower order.

"Hairpin Tai Sui is so guts?" Dugu Xinci took a puff of green smoke and enveloped Feng Yuanyi, the general manager of Lijingmen.

"A certain Lijingmen's tens of thousands of gold every year have to ask her for it," hairpin Tai Sui Feng Yuanyi smiled bitterly.

"So you put a certain top in front?" Dugu Xinci sneered.

"Isn't that impossible? A certain Lijingmen finally has a entry, how can people easily ponder it? Besides, didn't the Marquis of Ru Yuandong also involve something? A certain one is now a fish in a net," Feng Yuanyi, the Duke of Qi, sighed.

"A net of fish? Still a raccoon dog? Dugu Xinci is not sympathetic, "A certain can leave at any time, the rim is not quiet, and a certain will return to the Far East"

"You know that the Far East is afraid that it will not let you go back easily," Feng Yuanyi sighed.

"I can't go back to the Far East, I will go to Nanshan, Nanshan will not let me go, will I go to Annan?" Dugu Xinci is afraid, someone is bothered all day long, when is it a head?

"Forget it, why is you running safely?" Feng Yuanyi was weak.

"Your peace needs to be preserved by you?" Dugu Xinci sneered, "I'm afraid of you and other troubles"

The two were still bothering each other, and someone came to report that Princess Jingshan had gone out of the mountain.

Dugu Xinci and Feng Yuanyi looked at each other.

"Why don't you send someone with you?" Dugu Xinci said weakly, if the princess has an accident on his territory, he will only run away, but fortunately, it is only two moments now, the sky is not yet dark, that is, it is dark, and the snow is also very bright, I am afraid that the snow hole is icy.

Feng Yuanyi ignored it, but he was unlucky to urge him here, and if something happened, he would definitely not be able to run, so he waved his hand and asked Feng Ping'an to arrange for people to take care of Princess Jingshan and her party.

"Who told you to drive the Blue Pass Forbidden Army back? Aren't you afraid to share the money with them? Dugu Xinci still has the strength to laugh, "Okay, now there is one less shield"

Feng Yuanyi also understood Dugu Xinci's means of befriending Qin Chong, the general of the Blue Pass.

"Immediately, please ask the saint to send the forbidden army to Yu Gongchuan," Feng Yuanyi called.

"Far away from the Rim River, don't want to occupy a barren mountain, you have also seen it, 50,000 acres of barren mountains are afraid to get 10,000 acres of fertile land, if you are bad, a certain and you desperate" Dugu heart is anxious.

"Listening to Princess Jingshan's words, I'm afraid that there is a calculation workshop, so you need to take precautions?"

"What do you want to do?"

"A certain person will be sent to strictly guard, if there is a betrayal, a certain Li Jingmen has its own means to make him regret not being at the beginning"

"What's the difference between working with you and working with Princess Jingshan? How can there be such a thing as betrayal? Dugu Xinci sneered, "You go to find a traitor, do you say that Princess Jingshan will stand by and watch?" ”

"Then what do you say?"

"What's the use of good policy? You have ruled Lijingmen for many years, is it possible to rely on loyalty to maintain your subordinates? "Dugu Xinci spits out smoke" when you need to be generous and honest, and you promise heavy profits"

"Okay, it's cheap, those gang kill talents" The matter has come to this point, Feng Yuanyi is as good as a stream.

"That, little fish, how many years do the craftsmen in the workshop have been working now?"

"Well, most of them are about fifty times a year," Xiao Yu'er blurted out.

"It's not bad" Dugu Xinci sighed when he heard it, he is a third-grade marquis, if the annual salary is not Yongye Tian, he is afraid that it is only 400 yuan, "up 20%, 60 yuan, distributed many times a month, once in the middle of each month, once at the end of the month, once at the end of the month, 30"

Xiao Yu'er looked at his big manager, and the big manager hairpin Hua Tai Sui Feng Yuan nodded.

"How many people can work in Beishan today?"

"Five hundred people are enough, eight hundred people are afraid that safety is not easy to manage", Xiao Yuer is still in the belly, this safety is the top priority, and it is also determined by the Hou of the Far East.

"There is no sun and moon in the cave, but there are people working at night?"

"Working at night?" The crowd was amazed.

"Yes, the cave still needs to be lit during the day, what is the difference between it and night? If for the sake of safety and avoid the fatigue of the craftsmen, you can recruit more people and work shifts"

"Shifts?" Xiao Yu'er thought about it, and Feng Yuan was confused.

"It's like keeping an eye on someone, you need to be on duty day and night, right? One person is definitely not able to go all the way, you need to rotate several people, how many hours during the day are for you, and how many hours are for him at night" Dugu Xinci explained, "Three shifts are the best, each person is not easy to get tired for four hours, and the craftsmen are also given some bonuses, and the amount of money each person completes per day is fixed, and the excess can be rewarded according to the number"

"In this way, a certain level can be more than double the current output" Feng Ping'an silently calculated and came to a conclusion, Feng Yuanyi was already surprised, thinking that it was not, a certain day and night rotation, many times the working time compared to ordinary workshops.

"Gunpowder is the most important weapon of the country, Princess Jingshan is afraid that she will not take it seriously, so as to ignore the safety regulations, and sooner or later it will cause disaster" Dugu Xinci spat out smoke and cursed.

"That must not be allowed to be set up in the imperial city and palace city," Feng Yuan was shocked.

"Therefore, he calculates your workshop, and you should send people in, and strictly manage safety," Dugu sighed.

"Someone to give away with Princess Jingshan?" Xiao Yu'er and Feng Ping'an were a little confused.

Dugu Xinci knew that these two wanted to crook their minds, and they didn't bother to correct them.

Everyone was speechless anymore, and Dugu Xinci asked Zhongsun to settle the three of them to rest, and no longer paid attention to the self-calculating Lijingmen people.

In the evening, there are still three or two Jinshi who are not drunk, and they will get some ingredients, and everyone has no opinion.

There is no wind and snow at night, the moon is in the sky, and the rim is ethereal.

So I made an appointment to visit tomorrow to enjoy the snow and then go to the Rim River.

The world has come to an end, and people's hearts are even more different. Chase in the snobbery, power competition boasting. Loyalty turns into resentment, and it becomes a trend of flattery. The flattery is imminent, and the momentum is hesitant.
