Chapter 781: Palpitating Dream 3
When they heard this number, all the officials, including Zhang Xu, were overjoyed! One million and two hundred thousand stones plus two million stones, that is more than three million stones! That's more than a third of the way around!
Recently, there was news from the capital, and the Lin family transferred another sum of silver, which is said to be the rent of the Bai family in Yangzhou, plus the income from the gluttonous sea, Qilanxiang, Xingxinglou and various shops, as well as the discounted part of Lin Ruo's "relics" jewelry and collection, about one million more stones.
Many people said that the Lin family had no Lin Ruo, so they could only show their loyalty to the emperor with their money.
It's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's hard to send charcoal in the snow.
Everyone understands the truth, but more people in this world will choose to take advantage of the fire to rob, pluck the feathers of geese, and believe that "if people are not for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed".
Zhang Xu excitedly shook Wang Xi's hand and said, "Wanjia Qianzhuang, hand it over to this official and Qingmiao Division to deal with!" Lord Wang is loyal to the king and loves the people, and pours out his money to solve our urgent needs, and this official will definitely truthfully show the saints, and ask the emperor to reward the royal family for meritorious deeds! ”
Wang Xi smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Zhang's words are serious, but-Lord Zhang, who does Lord Zhang plan to find to deal with the remaining millions of stone grain?" ”
Zhang Xu made a bitter face, sighed heavily, and said, "This is also the heart disease of this official!" Among the businessmen, there are many people who have thousands of dollars in their pockets, but there are not many who can be regarded as rich; And among the giants and gentry on the side of the rich family, those who are rich and unkind account for the majority, and they will do whatever it takes to accumulate wealth, such as the Lu family and the Wan family in Bian'an, and the Qian family in Lin'an. If you want to find a family of businessmen like the Lin family and the Wang family, who are kind and kind-hearted, it is really rare! Hey, Master Wang is from Jinling, right? I don't know if Master Wang has any suitable candidates, can you recommend them to this official? ”
"This ...... Hehe," Wang Xi smiled, and then lowered his voice and said, "Master Zhang, to be honest, there is really a candidate in my heart. But-I wonder if Master Zhang can move? ”
"What can't you say to your face, and you have to let the deposed lord move?" The officials with pointed ears heard Wang Xi's words and leaned over to ask questions.
Wang Xi was startled, looked at it, and saw that this person was one of the eight masters of the Qingmiao Division, Du Zhen.
However, the officials of the Qingmiao Division were still immersed in the joy of making great progress in the purchase of autumn grain, and did not notice this.
"Master Wang?" Du Zhen called out again.
He has been in Jiangnan for almost three years, from an unknown official to the current six-grade Qingmiao in charge, his horizons and mood have been broadened a lot, and he has a lot of experience of sympathy with Jianghuai and Zhang Xu, and has a similar temperament, so it can be discussed.
He spoke out at this time, not to deliberately embarrass Wang Xi and make Zhang Xu unable to come to the stage, but to worry that this businessman would have other intentions and design to frame Zhang Xu. In extraordinary times, we have to guard against it.
Wang Xi naturally knew Du Zhen, and when Lin Ruo introduced him to Zhang Xu, Wang Xi also received a letter explaining what happened. It's just that Lin Ruo and Wang Xi are both in secret, and Du Zhen doesn't know. Until now, he still thought that it was the prince's words that gave him this opportunity, and coupled with Zhang Xu's appreciation, he had today's status.
Wang Xi looked at Zhang Xu, and then asked tentatively, "Who is this...... Du Zhangsi? ”
Zhang Xu nodded and said, "Exactly." Far away, don't be rude, if the prince has the grace of knowing me, then the prince is the grace of the towel car to me, and it is extremely difficult to repay it. This time, Master Wang is willing to help, and I am also grateful. ”
All the words come together into a subtext, and that is: you have a lot of heart.
Of course, Du Zhen didn't know the deep friendship between Zhang Xu and Wang Xi, and shouted a little unwillingly: "My lord......"
Zhang Xu waved his hand and motioned for him to stop talking.
Wang Xi sneered twice and said, "Master Zhang doesn't have to be like this, Du Zhangsi is also for your consideration." However, the contemptible little grace is really not enough to make the deposed adults worry. If Du Zhangsi is not at ease, it is good to move together. ”
Du Zhen was a little surprised by Wang Xi's openness, he saw that Zhang Xu twitched the corners of his mouth helplessly, and just wanted to say something more, but found that the two had moved to the other side, but they were also in the main hall. In this position, when you turn your head, you can see a group of officials who are chatting enthusiastically with Wang Tuo and Wang Kuang brothers, but those people can't hear what they say, and they are no longer stubborn.
"Master Wang, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."
"Master Zhang, hehe, it's a bit ...... Have a bone in one's throat. Wang Xi smiled and rubbed his hands, "Lord Zhang, Du Zhangsi, the two of you also know that our Wang family's business is mainly silk brocade, Lord Zhang should know that we not only have business dealings with various parts of Donglu, but also with neighboring countries, and even through sea ships and Dashi and Persia. ”
Zhang Xu nodded: "That's true." He then motioned with his eyes to continue.
The look of ridicule on Wang Xi's face became a little heavier, and he was embarrassed: "Master Zhang, Du Zhangsi, this silk brocade, sea and land transportation, will cost a lot of expenses. Contemptible, contemptible people really want to do their part for all of you adults and for hundreds of thousands of farmers in the south of the Yangtze River, but, but you have to leave some capital for the Wang family's business dealings, right? Master Zhang, Du Zhangsi, what do you say? ”
Zhang Xu and Du Zhen glanced at each other, and immediately understood what Wang Xi wanted to express.
Indeed, it is difficult for some strong people to ask people to take out all their net worth and buy millions of stone grain, and if they are replaced, they are not willing to - after all, people also have to do business, and so many people in a family have to be fed.
However, the gap between the autumn grain and silver in Jiangnan is too big, and they are also very embarrassed!
Wang Xi stretched out his hand and said with relief: "Master Zhang, Du Zhangsi, the concerns of you and your lords can also be understood. Therefore, the contemptible people are willing to recommend a reliable person to solve the funding gap of this green seedling autumn grain. I just hope that all of you can also understand the difficulties of the contemptible family, and leave a sum of money for the Wang family's business to continue! ”
After saying that, Wang Xi bowed down with his hand and respectfully saluted Zhang Xu and Du Zhen.
Zhang Xu hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Wang Xi and said, "Master Wang is serious!" The Wang family was able to lend a helping hand at this time, and the officials and the Qingmiao Division were really grateful. What Master Wang invited is also reasonable, then-if the person recommended by Master Wang can really solve the urgent need of the gap between the autumn grain and silver in Jiangnan, the official will naturally not allow it! It's just that, Master Wang, the person you recommend must not be the Lu family, the Wan family, the Qian family, etc.! ”
In the last sentence, Zhang Xu lowered his voice, patted Wang Xi's hand, and said solemnly.
Wang Xi hurriedly said: "This is nature, this is nature." ”
Zhang Xu replied: "In this case, Master Wang might as well tell me, who is the person you recommend who can solve our urgent needs?" ”
