Chapter 104: Aftermath

"Let's take the Golden Buddha, and how much he should take, how much we will take!" Lin Yuan stood with his hands in his hands, and when he saw that Shopkeeper Han was surprised and comforted, he patted him lightly on the shoulder.

This Han shopkeeper is a little bolder.

Shopkeeper Han was stunned and looked at the resolute and upright, leisurely and distant figure couldn't help sweating profusely and slumped to the ground. His mother, with such a quiet momentum of pointing out the country, it is no wonder that the master can enter the Donglin Hall in only five years.

On the second day, the streets and alleys of the capital talked about the pleasures of Lin and Qiao. The fact that the Golden Buddha of the Qiao family squeezed out the pawnshop has long been commonplace for the people, but they don't want Lin Ji's pawnshop to be vegetarian.

Not only did he receive the 90 golden Buddhas, but he also pressed the price to 2,500 taels because of his age, non-pure gold, and monotonous style.

The Qiao family was in a hurry to drive people and agreed to come down, who knew that the shopkeeper of Lin Ji was resolute, and the front foot just received the golden Buddha, and the back foot melted the ninety golden Buddhas into yellow and clear gold in front of the servants of the Qiao family.

Wait for everyone to carry the gold to the trading house and exchange it for silver, hey! No more, no less, one Buddha is just right for two thousand five hundred taels of silver!

"This is your two hundred and twenty-five thousand taels of silver, you can take it." Shopkeeper Han put the silver into the box and presented it to him, smiling kindly.

The servants of the Qiao family were a little pale and couldn't believe it, and the arrogance of the past disappeared.

"My master said, how many golden Buddhas you have in your mansion can be pawned, the absolute price of Lin Ji pawnshop is fair, and Tong Su is not bullied." The shopkeeper Han sent people out of the pawnshop with a smile, and the onlookers also knew that most of the Qiao family was defeated, and they exchanged heads and ears for a while, and there were many discussions.

When the slave of the Qiao family carried the box and wanted to leave, he might as well hear the shopkeeper Han standing at the door of the pawnshop shaking his head and disdainfully: "The Buddha of Pudu has become a gold and silver vulgar thing in the business field, and he is evil!" I'm not afraid of thunder and thunder! ”

When the onlookers pointed to a few servants of the Qiao family, they pointed and pointed: "Hey, it's not been a day or two since they did this, and there are no taboos for a long time." A few days ago, when my uncle went to Qiao Jidian, I didn't see that ruthless person who lowered the price! ”

"Fortunately, Lin Ji melted these golden Buddhas, not only in the name of this Buddha, but also I don't know how many debts I have made, karma is reincarnated, there is always retribution!"

"This Lin Ji shopkeeper is kind, this time the price of the Qiao family is so low is also a bad breath for us, I see, don't go to Qiao Ji in the future, Lin Ji is very good! These ninety golden Buddhas are not just neatly given to others, and they don't spend themselves a copper plate! ”

The servants of the Qiao family were so lightheaded when they heard this, they almost wanted to faint to death, and the homecoming master spent a lot of money to build momentum for other families!

The next day, the heads of the two families of Qiao Chang officially held a banquet in the Xianhua Building in the capital to entertain Lin Yuan, the eighth master, and sat for half a day, but still did not see Lin Yuan go to the banquet.

"Hmph, what a stinky shelf for a mountain man with no background! It's not too late to climb on top of you and me one day. Qiao Quande, the head of the Qiao family, poured wine cup by cup, and his eyebrows were full of anger.

"Drinking hurts your body, Brother Qiao looks away. If he really has no background as you and I have checked, he can climb to the position of the eighth master of Donglin Hall in just five years, and he is by no means an ordinary person. Brother Qiao, this time you are reckless! Chang Yun, the head of the Chang family, cocked his orchid fingers, gently removed Qiao Quande's wine glass, and smiled softly at him.

Qiao Quande was stunned, as if he had been electrocuted. This damn sissy is a guy who everyone loves to hook up! This time, I heard that I was robbed of the limelight by Lin Yuan, and I don't know how to look at his jokes behind my back!

Lin Yuan sat in the sedan chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, and outside the sedan chair was Fang Dashan, who was counting the history of the eight families in the capital with his fingers crossed, muttering: "The name of the seventh master is Qiao Quande, and he is currently the head of the Qiao family. In his early years, his father was a singleton man who was unclothed and helpless, and then he went to the east and west exits alone, first as a pawnshop guy, and then as a forage shop and then a grocery store......"

Lin Yuan interrupted him impatiently: "Pick the important ones." ”

He already knew the information of the other seven merchants, and now he was just listening carefully to the backgrounds of a few merchants and thinking about the strategy for dealing with this Hongmen banquet.

Fang Dashan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly scratched his ears and nodded: "Qiao Quande, the seventh master, is fat and careful, and loves to drill camps and tricks. Since taking over the ancestral industry, it has turned losses into profits, making the ancestral industry prosperous and thriving. It is rumored that the Qiao family has reached tens of millions of taels in his generation. ”

After speaking, he paused, and after Lin Yuan nodded and asked him to continue, he swallowed his saliva again and said: "Six masters are often clouds, feminine and feminine, live a simple life, and are proficient in numerology gossip. The ancestor started by divination, and in his generation, he mainly dealt in cloth, silk, tea, and tobacco. ”

Now Changshi tea houses are all over the Ming Dynasty, and have successively added Dasheng jade, Daquan jade, Damei jade, Dushen jade and other business names, forming Chang's "jade word" number, it is rumored that all the things of these businesses are sold to foreigners, which can be described as making money every day! ”

Speaking of this, Fang Dashan couldn't help but smack his tongue, these six masters and seven masters are still like this, not to mention how majestic and empty the five in front of them are!

But today, Lin Yuan, who was dressed in a black shirt, only swallowed the sedan chair slowly, took a look at this magnificent restaurant behind him, and followed the shopkeeper of Xianhua Building into the Huayue private room on the second floor.

"Yo, Brother Lin is busy, and I think that I can't invite you to this big Buddha with my thin face!" Qiao Quande's eyes were full of light, and looking at Lin Yuan's disdainful state was just like looking at the vulnerable ants.

Chang Yun stood up and gently faced Lin Yuanyifu, rubbed his body and smiled coquettishly as a peacemaker: "Hey, it's good to come, just come." Today, I am the east, and they are all my own brothers, Brother Qiao can not be unforgiving! Brother Lin, sit down quickly! ”

Lin Yuan bowed deeply to Chang Yun gratefully, his eyes were solemn, and he didn't seem to have contempt. He shook Qiao Quande to the end: "Two brothers, I'm really sorry, it's too late to have a lot of trivial matters at home, the younger brother apologizes to the two, do it first as a respect!" ”

After speaking, he picked up the wine glass on the table and poured his head up, and the spicy and burning wine immediately rolled down his throat and went straight to his heart. Chang Yun and Qiao Quande were forced by his crisp and neat momentum, but it was not easy to make any more calculations.

When the restaurant guy served the food, it was a new round of confrontation, Chang Yun lay on Lin Yuan's body and poured him wine cup by cup, while Qiao Quande touched his round belly and smiled: "Come and try this braised belly silk, you must have never tasted a mud leg from the countryside, right?" ”

"Yesterday, there was an ignorant servant in the family who secretly raised a dog named Lin Yuan, barking at me all day long. Fortunately, the beast collided with the name of the brother, and he was only beaten to death with a stick. ”

Seeing that Lin Yuan only smiled and didn't answer, he didn't even hold up the wine glass that Chang Yun had touched. Qiao Quande sneered in his heart, it seems that he is a fool, but he is a bit of a smart fool. Cut, it's not interesting!

I don't dare to take it when I'm tempting, and I'm afraid that it's also a soft-footed shrimp. Anyway, I dealt with him earlier and went home to accompany the concubine: "I heard that the Lin family has strong family resources and is very good at trade. Today, the Holy Lord intends to point out the Tartars, and it just so happens that the contemptible people have some connections in the court, and they want to recommend you to raise military rations and share the worries of the Holy One. ”

Speaking of this, he put his arm on Lin Yuan's shoulder and smiled evilly: "I don't know, what does Brother Lin think?" ”
