Chapter 121: Is It Really Rich?
As the publisher and distributor of the novel "The Richest Man in the World", Huiyou Bookstore has still suffered some impact.
Of course, it is not from the official face, but from time to time it is harassed by the green-skinned ruffians.
It can only be said that Daqing is not the middle and late Ming Dynasty!
The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, which is responsible for the security of the capital, is in the hands of the powerful Xungui group, and even the cabinet cannot be transferred at will.
As for the Shuntian Mansion, which is in charge of the administrative security of the capital, he does not dare to participate in the current dispute indiscriminately, even the Shuntian Mansion does not dare to come forward.
Therefore, the court bosses, who have great interests with Yangzhou salt merchants, have no way at all, and they dare not use the power of the official face to target the Huiyou bookstore.
At this time, even if they implicated the second master of Zhenger and the second chain in the officialdom, including themselves, they would not think that they were implicated by Jia Cong, the initiator, but thought that they were implicated by Wang Ziteng.
It can be said that at this time, Jia Cong really doesn't have to worry about the possible threat from Rongguo Mansion. As long as you don't die, you don't have to worry about the 'dimensionality reduction attack' from the court boss.
If in the late Ming Dynasty, with Jia Cong's behavior, it is estimated that the Rongguo Mansion will be completed, and he himself will have to go into exile and become a wanted criminal.
If you can't use official means, you can only use some unacceptable means, that is, to drive gangs to harass bookstores.
Whether it's useful or not, at least it can disgust people.
Fortunately, the guards of the Xue family have always been there, and the green-skinned gangsters who came to harass them were easily dismissed, but they didn't make much noise.
Even Jia Cong himself, after the court wind rose, he was also hit twice, but each time he didn't wait for him to make a move, all kinds of people happened to pass by to help.
Such a result made him cry and laugh very much.
Of course, he knew what was going on, and it should be his own luck.
At this time, Jia Cong knew that the first layer of the Fortune Pagoda in the sea had been completely filled with white luck, and even a little light red light appeared, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the top of the luck was covered.
The Red Mansion is too illusory, and there is a mysterious existence like the Police Illusion Fairy, and there is also the possibility of natural luck being cashed in.
has a majestic luck to protect himself, and with the promotion of the novel, there will be more and more, and whoever can't get along with him will be unlucky.
According to his understanding of merit and luck, as long as he does not do anything that violates the way of heaven and humanity, and does not take the initiative to act against the emperor who has a lot of humanity, at least in Daqing, which is an acre and three points of land, it is not a problem to live a nourishing and chic life.
With such confidence, Jia Cong has no scruples to continue to promote the novel "The Richest Man in the World", which caused a huge shock.
The second volume of the novel, "The Giant Merchant and the Rich Jia", has ended, and Liu Dafu, the pig's foot, has also become a big salt merchant in Yangzhou, with countless rich and rich slaves, and the "trench" is full of scenery.
Next is the last volume of the novel, "The Rich World", which is even more eye-catching, full of scenes of Yangzhou salt merchants fighting for wealth and showing off their wealth.
What Qiantang River throws gold and silver, competes for Oiran, a table of luxury banquets that cost hundreds of thousands of taels, Yangzhou thin horses and the like, all of which are arrogant and lascivious scenes.
In other words, there is so much silver that there are big salt merchants in Yangzhou, and Daqing is in the feudal era, and the productivity is still very backward, these big salt merchants don't know how to spend the silver, so there are scenes of various luxury scenes of wealth fighting that make ordinary listeners and readers stunned.
What field shops, what tea mountain mulberry orchards, Yangzhou salt merchants can buy for silver, basically all of them, but they still have millions of taels of silver in their hands, and there is a steady stream of huge salt profits every year.
The entire third volume of 'Rich and Rich World' mostly describes the big salt merchants of Yangzhou, especially Liu Dafu, who lived a luxurious life like a wine pond and meat forest.
Jia Cong is not really stupid, and he will not write the scene of the collusion between Yangzhou salt merchants and Beijing bigwigs in the novel, so he is really setting himself on fire.
didn't mention much about the fact that Yangzhou salt merchants spent a lot of money to fund poor scholars, which was quite sensitive, and it would detonate the entire Jiangnan Shilin, as well as the court bosses from Jiangnan.
As far as he knows, the Yangzhou salt merchant group has formed a tradition and scale of sponsoring poor students.
Many officials from Jiangnan were more or less supported by Yangzhou salt merchants.
If the Tao here is preached in the novel, it will really break the sky, the number of officials involved is too many, and there are many high-level officials. It is estimated that in order to avoid turmoil in the court, the emperor is going to kill him, the author of the novel.
At the same time, the academies and private schools supported by Yangzhou salt merchants, according to Lin Ruhai, have a lot of momentum in Jiangnan Shilin, unless Jia Cong wants to completely offend Jiangnan Shilin to death, otherwise it is best not to do too much.
The prince of Chu also meant the same, after all, Jiangnan was related to most of Daqing's taxes, and no matter which force it was, it was not allowed to be really chaotic there.
Jia Cong is as good as a stream, and he didn't easily touch such a hornet's nest, he just wrote novels to gather popularity, and by the way, he disgusted the Yangzhou Salt Merchants Association, and he didn't really want to lift the table in Yangzhou.
The most outrageous content he wrote, that is, in order to compete for the position of president of the Yangzhou Salt Merchants Association, Liu Dafu used all kinds of means to pull Yangzhou to patrol the imperial history of salt, as well as the drama of the Yangzhou prefect going into the water, either smashing silver or using beauty tricks.
The bridges here are all written according to Lin Ruhai, the real experience of his previous convicted salt patrol imperial history, even if there are court elders who are unhappy, it is not easy to say that it cannot be written like this.
At the end of the novel, Liu Dafu, a pig's foot, successfully became the president of the Yangzhou Salt Merchants Association, and accumulated a massive wealth of more than 20 million taels.
And that's the end of it?
Huibin Lou was silent, even if the first mouth in the capital, 'Kuaikou Lao Li', finished the last chapter for a long time, no guest spoke.
The indescribable amazement in my heart, such a wonderful novel is over?
Many dignitaries who were attracted to the country were a little reluctant in their hearts, but they were also secretly relieved.
With their vision and cognition, they naturally know that many plots in the novel are not elaborated, and it would be difficult to delve into them.
Of course, their hearts are more fiery at this time.
Nima, when Liu Dafu died, his net worth was more than 20 million taels, which was comparable to Daqing's taxes for almost two years.
The title of "The Richest Man in the World" is not wrong at all, but I don't know if Yangzhou salt merchants are really so rich?
No matter what, at this moment, everyone who consciously has some strength has a thought......
