Chapter 82: Between Qi Liang
The next day, early in the morning, Bao Ping went to the Shunfeng Express shop to see Li Sangrou, still in the small tea shop last time.
Bao Ping lifted the teapot, poured tea for Li Sangrou first, and then sat down and said with a smile: "The last time the big boss said those words, I went back from here, and I told a few people in charge of the business.
I'm a dull person, and they beat me up.
said that over the years, I have only cared about business and business, and I have run stupidly.
What the big boss said, why do you still want to think about it?
The signboard of Qing'an Laohao was hung up in Jianle City, from the day the signboard was hung, in the past few decades, the shop has been in Jianle City, and the business is in our place, where is there anything else and what? ”
Bao Ping put his hands on his knees, and talked and laughed, very humble.
Li Sangrou listened intently, smiling.
"It's all something you don't have to think about, Qing'an Lao was born in Jianle City, grew up in Jianle City, in the past, now, and in the future, he can only be the people of our Qidi." Bao Ping continued.
Li Sangrou smiled and nodded.
"If the shopkeeper thinks about it, this business matter, the shopkeeper is a real expert, how to do it, as long as it is not like the previous world, you have to kill all your peers, and if you don't do it, you just let it go." Li Sangrou said with a smile.
"Yes." Bao Ping breathed a sigh of relief, "The big boss nodded, then I was relieved."
There are also a few small things that I want to ask the big boss to explain.
First, this courier industry was created by the big bosses. The rules of the courier industry of the big boss, I want to follow the big boss's study and learn a thing or two.
The ...... of the big boss"
"Okay! Whatever you want to learn, just look for Dachang. Without waiting for Bao Ping to finish speaking, Li Sangrou readily agreed.
"Thank you, boss." Bao Ping really breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was happy, "I want to pick a few proper people, go to the Shunfeng shop, and learn from the masters, and see the big masters?" ”
Li Sangrou simply nodded.
"This is the biggest thing, the big boss nodded, and everything else is a small matter.
The second thing is the line, which has been discussed with several directors of the Qing'an firm, and wants to go to Taiyuan first. ”
"Excellent, I also think it is most appropriate for you to take the line of Taiyuan Mansion first, you are most familiar with this line, and you will get twice the result with half the effort." Li Sangrou said with a smile.
He was really a smart man, and he chose the route to the north and avoided the future battle of Qiliang as much as possible.
But this war can be avoided as long as you go north?
"The third piece, I don't know if the news newspaper and the lace evening newspaper can be released, and the trumpet can be sold on behalf of one or two?" Bao Ping really let go of his heart this time, and his tone became brisk.
"Of course. Regarding the morning newspaper and the evening newspaper, you go to Dong Shu'an and Lin Jianmu, and you can talk about it as you want. Li Sangrou smiled.
Bao Ping heard Li Sangrou call Dong Shu'an and Lin Jianmu by their names, and his heart jumped slightly.
It seems that the great change in the news dynasty and the lace evening newspaper is because these two tabloids were taken over by the Sang Da master, and this legend should be true.
……………………
Sending Bao Ping away, Li Sangrou sat at the back of the shop, next to her vegetable patch, flipping through her small notebook, weighing where she would eat at noon, and the grasshopper came in from outside with Ruyi.
Ruyi saw Li Sangrou, and couldn't stop laughing before she spoke, so she hurriedly bowed to her, "Miss Li." ”
Li Sangrou closed the small book and looked at Ruyi.
"Our prince asked the little one to come over and ask the girl if she was free at night, if the girl was free at night, our prince wanted to invite the girl to eat together."
"Where are you going?" Li Sangrou responded happily and put the small notebook aside.
She was about to talk to him about a few things, such as the matter of Bao Ping, the old Qing'an just now.
"The prince instructed, let the little one ask the girl, where do you want to go, the girl ordered, let the little one not have to go back to report to him, just go and book it first." Ruyi bowed and smiled.
"Then, the Barbarian King's family." Li Sangrou smiled unceremoniously.
Pan Dingbang said that the spring seasonal dishes of the Barbarian King's family, especially spring cakes, are a must in the capital, and it is in season at this time, and it is extremely difficult to order.
"Yes." Ruyi replied crisply, took two steps back, nodded with the grasshopper in farewell, and turned around and went straight to the barbarian king's house.
……………………
The sun was setting in the west, Li Sangrou got out of the shop, looked east and west all the way, and went to the barbarian king's house on the old Caomen Street.
Li Sangrou saw the familiar maid at the door of the barbarian king's house, and followed him into the private room behind the barbarian king's house through the side door.
Gu Xi had just arrived, and he was wiping his hands with a wet handkerchief, when he heard the movement, he turned around and saw Li Sangrou, and glanced at him from the front.
Since the evening newspaper released the secret story of the writer's kung fu, this is the first time Li Sangrou has seen Gu Xi.
Li Sangrou smiled and bowed to Gu Xi.
"You coaxed Pan Qi, but you know everything he knows, right?" Looking at the uncontrollable smile on the corner of Li Sangrou's mouth, Gu Xi was angry.
"You shouldn't have hit him. I didn't say it was you, and no one knew it was you.
Originally, the next day, I was going to let a few young generals of the Wen family come out and let everyone guess, you rushed to the Ministry of Industry to beat ......"
Li Sangrou spread her hands and couldn't help laughing.
"Or is it my fault?" Gu Xi snorted.
His eldest brother's laughing voice changed, pointed at him, and said that he was afraid that Miss Li was waiting for you to rush and fight, and you really rushed over to fight!
"You jumped into Yaohua Palace yesterday and were taken as a thief?" Gu Xi changed the subject.
"Yesterday's incident reached your ears so quickly?" Li Sangrou sat down and drank tea from a cup.
"Pan Dingshan came to see me in the morning and said a few gossips." Gu Xi also picked up the cup and drank tea.
Li Sangrou only smiled and didn't answer.
"You and I don't have to be so cautious, just ask what you want to ask, just say what you want to say, I won't tell you what you shouldn't say." Gu Xi looked at Li Sangrou, still a little angry.
"It's really nothing.
By the way, Jianle City has a Qing'an old number, doing tea brick business, have you heard of it? Li Sangrou changed the subject.
"One of the two who want to do the post business, what's wrong?" Gu Xi looked at Li Sangrou.
"There is a man named Bao Ping, who is about one of the owners of the Qing'an Old Horn, who came to me the day before yesterday and said that he wanted my permission to let them do the post business.
Have you checked the origin of the Qing'an old number? ”
"Well, report to the military department to do a post post, counting the tailwind, there are three in total.
After all, the post post is a military affair, you know the roots here, and the other two, of course, you have to check it carefully.
The proprietors, stewards, and partners of the Qing'an Old Ship are almost all Xiuning people.
They shipped cheap tea bricks from their hometown in Shezhou to the north, changed horses for fur pig iron, and were very good at doing business, and the business has been getting better and better in recent years.
I asked Pan Dingshan in the morning, and Pan Dingshan knew that this Qing'an old number, and even Pan Dingshan knew that their business was not small.
They also have a business name of Jixi people, and they have the same business, but they sell tea bricks to Shudi, and then detour to the west, northwest, and even north.
Nanliang has always been short of horses, and in the past four or five years, Nanliang has tried his best to urge merchants to exchange horses for pig iron from the northwest.
Almost all of the tea bricks in Shezhou have been taken away by the Jixi firm, and the business of Qing'an Laohao has become more and more difficult year by year in the past four or five years.
After Wu Huaiyi arrived in Jiangdu City, the traffic on both sides of the river was difficult, and I heard that the Qing'an old ship carrying tea bricks could not pass a single tea brick after Wu Huaiyi arrived in Jiangdu City. Gu Xi said in detail.
"No wonder they, as Nanliang people, also have to take the risk to get the line of the post to the military headquarters. Alas. Li Sangrou sighed, I can't say what it means.
"Not only tea bricks, like silk and the like, are now almost cut off, saying that they were all forcibly transported to Shu by Nanliang, detouring the long way, extremely far away, and exchanging the horse pig iron back to Nanliang.
Pan Dingshan was extremely worried, and suggested that once the war broke out, the first thing I would do was to open a north-south trade route. Gu Xi's expression was grim.
Li Sangrou snorted.
For businessmen, as long as the profit is enough, they dare to go to heaven and earth.
"In the post business, I never intended to be a monopoly.
If one family is dominant, this industry will not be able to get up. I just don't like to live and die among peers. Li Sangrou turned the topic to the post post. But Qing'an Laohao's family, as you said just now, almost all of them are from Xiuning County, Shezhou.
Although they have been away for a long time and rarely go back, Xiuning is their home, they have to go back to marry their relatives, they have to go back to raise their old age, and they have to return to Xiuning when they die.
Between Qi and Liang, it has been peaceful for decades, what will happen after that, I asked Bao Ping.
Bao Ping said that since four or five years ago, Qi in Taiyuan's tea and horses, and Liang's in Shudi, have forced salt, tea, silk, wool and other things to be exchanged for horses, and the horses in exchange for all the horses have been bought by the tea and horses. ”
Gu Xi's eyebrows raised.
Li Sangrou looked at his raised eyebrows and smiled: "Don't underestimate businessmen, Chunjiang plumbing duck prophet."
It has been peaceful for decades, and the peaceful days are about to pass, and Bao Ping and his fellow villagers have long seen it.
I asked him to go back first and think about it, once Qi Liang fights, they Qing'an Laohao, and these people, whether they are Qi people or Liang people, at this time, they must have a decision in their hearts. ”
Gu Xi nodded again and again.
"Early this morning, Bao Ping came to me, saying that he was stupid and confused the day before yesterday, so why don't you think about such a thing.
Bao Ping said: The first signboard of Qing'an Lao was hung out, that is, in Jianle City, in the past few decades, the shop is in Jianle City, and the business is in Qidi, they are naturally Qi people, which is not to be considered. Li Sangrou looked at Gu Xi.
"Their tea bricks and silk come from Nanliang, and this business is half and half, but it can't all be counted in Qidi.
He was speaking too sincerely. What do you think? Gu Xi looked at Li Sangrou.
"If Qi Liang fights, they are in Qidi, as long as Qidi is not defeated, they are Qi people, once the situation is unfavorable." Li Sangrou didn't say anything about the rest of the words, looked at Gu Xi, spread her hands, smiled bitterly, and continued:
"However, if they are in Liangdi, it is the same, if the Liangdi can hold it, they will be Liangren, and if Liangdi can't hold it, they will fall and scatter, and they will be Qi people."
"I thought about it too. Hmph, if the situation is unfavorable for the moment, then kill them first to save them from chaos. Gu Xi's eyes narrowed slightly.
"The demarcation of Qi and Liang started with Qi and Liang." Li Sangrou looked at Gu Xi, hesitated, and said cautiously:
"The former dynasty, the former dynasty, and the former dynasty, the north and south of the great river, have never separated each other, they are all people of the same country, the same flesh and blood."
Seeing that Gu Xi's face softened, Li Sangrou continued in a slow voice: "This Qi, and Liang, is the distinction between your forces, not the distinction between all living beings and not my race.
Shezhou people traveled all over the world to make a living and make money, hundreds of thousands of years before Qi Liang, and that's it.
For hundreds of thousands of years, they have never distinguished between the north and south of the river, and they have never distinguished between the Qi people and the Liang people.
Now, they don't want to distinguish either, they are Xiuning people, Xiuning merchants, they just want to make money, and they don't want to care whether they have the four seas or Emperor Liang.
When I was in Jiangdu City, I also quietly arranged He Shuicai in Jiangning City, and asked He Shuicai to buy a house in Jiangning City and report it to the household.
It's just an idea, in case the two families fight, we will look at the situation, which one wins, we will be the one of the family. Li Sangrou looked at Gu Xi and said with a smile, "After all, the two families are the same flesh and blood, and there is no one who is not of my race, right?"
The night incense line in Jiangdu City, twenty or thirty years ago, was also the rudder of Jiangning Night Incense Company, Jiang is not called Jiangdu, it is called Jiangning Nancheng, isn't it? ”
Gu Xi raised his eyebrows, and for a moment, he smiled speechlessly, looked at Li Sangrou and smiled: "What about now?" ”
"Now that we have become wanted criminals in Nanliang, Yexiangxing has also been bloodied by them, and we can't meet each other anymore." Li Sangrou sighed.
"Looks like I'm the one who caused you. I know what you mean. Alas. Gu Xi leaned back in the chair and sighed, "If it's about the same, the eldest brother has also said it, more than once."
I don't force them to do anything, but I have to do my part, Qing'an Laohao, and Shezhou Chamber of Commerce, I can't trust them until Qi has the four seas.
If you want them to come in and do the post business, okay, the eldest brother won't nod his head, it's just the same, no matter which route they do, the tailwind must follow closely.
For the time being, they are not allowed to have their own delivery shops, and you can lend them them the delivery shops. Gu Xi said politely.
Li Sangrou was silent for a moment and nodded, "Okay." ”
"The spring cakes of the Barbarian King's family are excellent." Probably thinking that the topic just now was too heavy, Gu Xi raised his voice and smiled: "Just now Ruyi said, I heard that we were coming, and they went back and invited the old club to personally make cakes and spring vegetables."
Their current bell head is the granddaughter of the old club, and it is said that they have obtained the true inheritance of the old club, but in fact, they are still a line behind, and they still have to go through a few years of training. ”
"I heard that you are coming, and I am the light of the world." Li Sangrou raised her teacup at Gu Xi.
Gu Xi smiled, "This time it's not necessarily true, just Ruyi said that people heard that the big boss was coming, so they went to invite the old club."
In this Jianle City, your fame is very loud.
Pan Dingshan said, at yesterday's cultural meeting, many people made a special trip to thank you? ”
"Having the second master of the Pan Xiang family with him is the face of the second master, thank me is just an excuse." Li Sangrou smiled.
"By the way, there's a joke that Zhihe told me.
Zhihe said that there was a partial general who went to Jianle City to hand over official business, and his daughter-in-law asked him to bring a few cakes of good tea back.
He bought tea, said goodbye to Zhihe before leaving, and asked Zhihe very curiously:
said that the shopkeeper heard that he bought tea for his daughter-in-law, and he had to give him a good tea needle, saying what kind of Tanhua tea needle, he told Zhihe that there was no scholar in his family, what do you want to do with Tanhua tea needle? ”
Li Sangrou laughed.
Gu Xi patted the armrest of the chair with a smile, "I heard that now all tea shops sell tea, and they all give a Tanhua tea needle." ”
