Chapter 177 Donations

……

A thin civil official took a step forward and bowed to Gu Song and said: "The subordinates have investigated in many ways, and found that the reason why the paper of the Oriental Company is out of stock is related to the well-intentioned worship and paper money burners in the cemeteries around the country a few days ago, and some people have identified that among them are the guys of the Oriental Company who appeared in the cemetery of the Tuoyan family in Xigu Village, judging from all indications, this is a promotional activity carefully planned by the Oriental Company, using the grief of the kind people for their dead relatives, and seducing the people to buy paper money to honor the deceased, so that many poor families in order not to be left behind, They also spent a lot of money to buy paper money, which caused a large number of gold and silver coins to fall into the pockets of the Oriental Company, and the people were even poorer. Dongfang Company is the culprit who is responsible for the disaster of our city and the blood and sweat of the people of our city. ”

Gu Song licked his lips and said, "Then how much money does Dongfang Company make?" ”

Everyone looked at it, and finally fell on the body of the lark, the lark is only thirty-five or sixteen years old, sharp-beaked monkey gills, thin and small, although his appearance is not good, but in the city lord's mansion in the main book, under one person, above ten thousand people, in addition to Gu Song, it is his most powerful, almost all political affairs on weekdays are taken care of by the lark, Gu Song is extremely important to him, regarded as a right-hand man. Seeing Song asking, Bailingche replied: "Lord Hui, according to the estimation of his subordinates, Dongfang Company has made a profit of more than 100,000 gold coins from the white paper alone......

"Ah......h

Everyone in the hall took a deep breath of cold air.

"That's so much, that's more than half a year's tax revenue in our entire Dushan City......"

"This Dongfang Company is really a moth, if we let it go on like this, our Dushan City will be sucked dry by him......"

"We can't let the Oriental Company go on like this, General, we must ban the Oriental Company!"

Hearing the discussion of the officials, Gu Song shook his head and said, "Alas! No, half of the equity of Dongfang Company is said to be owned by the Hengchang Chamber of Commerce, and we can't move it if we don't have a very good reason! ”

"Then let the Oriental Company continue to run rampant like this?"

The officials began to talk fiercely again, Gu Song raised his hand to suppress everyone's discussion, and said: "After Liu Zhengding of the Oriental Company comes to the banquet tonight, the matter will be decided, everyone go and prepare!" ”

A welcoming voice came from outside the door: "Your guest has arrived!" Welcome Liu Zhengding, President of Oriental Company, Lv Erfu, Assistant Company, and Yang Biao, General Manager of Dushan City of Oriental Company, to visit the Lord of Dushan City! ”

"Hahahaha, President Liu came to Dushan City, why didn't he say hello in advance...... Come on, come in! ”

Gu Song stepped forward extremely enthusiastically and gave Liu Zhibang a bear hug, Liu Zhibang only felt a rattling sound of his sternum, and he was in danger of breaking.

Liu Zhibang took a deep breath and said: "General Gu Song, you are so polite, Liu just went to Dushan City to do some official business, the adults are in a high position, and they are busy with everything, but they still remember the villain, which really flatters Liu!" ”

Gu Song said with a smile on his face: "What are you talking about, Mu Tongmu shopkeeper and I are old friends, he mentioned President Liu to me, saying that President Liu is an unborn business elite, I finally saw it today, it is indeed a young hero, a dragon and a phoenix among people, haha!" ”

After touting each other again, they all sat down.

After introducing some important people to each other, after three rounds of drinking, Gu Song's eyes rolled and said, "President Liu, I don't know what your relationship is with the Han patriarch?" ”

Lu Er glanced at Liu Zhibang a little nervously, Liu Zhibang smiled faintly and said, "He is my brother, what does the general mean by asking?" ”

Gu Song laughed and said: "That's the case, I heard that in recent months, there has been an extremely powerful figure in Xia Yuancheng of the Qingyun Empire, in just a few months, with thousands of people defeated nearly 100,000 troops of the Qingyun Empire, and completely annihilated the 'Shun Heaven' hundreds of thousands of righteous troops, shaking the entire Divine Enlightenment Continent, that person is Liu Zhibang, hearing that President Liu is also surnamed Liu, and he came from Xia Yuancheng, he couldn't help but ask, in fact, this general has great respect for Liu Zhibang, a heroic figure, and wants to know ......."

Liu Zhibang thought that you knew the news of the bone Song very quickly, and sure enough, a lot of eyeliner was installed in my Han nationality, Liu Zhibang replied with a smile: "Oh! I see, Liu Zhibang is a brother of the lower clan, our Han surname Liu is a big family, there are thousands of people, I am the same generation as Liu Zhibang, there are about 400 brothers of the same generation, and there are not many people who usually move around......"

"That's it!"

Gu Song looked at Liu Zhibang with a look of complete disbelief, and Liu Zhibang was calmly eating and drinking.

Gu Song laughed and said: "President Liu, I heard that as soon as you arrived in Dushan City, the business of Dongfang Company was dozens of times better than usual, and you made all the money in Dushan City, which is really worthy of a business wizard!" ”

Liu Zhibang put down his wine glass and continued: "General, who did you listen to when you said this?" That's all exaggerated rumors, adults must not take them seriously! ”

Gu Song laughed a few more times and said, "Don't hide it from President Liu, I invite you to come this time because I have something to ask for!" ”

Liu Zhibang answered: "Oh! What difficulties does the general have, as long as Liu can do it, he will definitely help! ”

When Gu Song heard Liu Zhibang say this, he happily patted Liu Zhibang's shoulder, and Liu Zhibang felt the bones on his shoulder moan a few times.

Gu Song continued: "Brother Liu, the whole people of our Jinguang Empire believe in Jinu Religion, and there is a temple in every city, and there is also one in our Dushan City, which is the one on the highest peak, but these priests and monks are all outsiders, in order to serve the great god of Jinu, the use of this priest and monk and the repair cost of the temple are naturally the responsibility of our imperial officials, although your Dongfang Company has not been established for a long time, but with the rare goods shipped from Xia Yuan City, it has made a lot of money in our Dushan City." On the one hand, it is your President Liu's good management, and on the other hand, it is also the blessing of the great god Jinu, don't you say? ”

Liu Zhibang said in his heart, this bone Song is really insidious, use words to trick me, Dongfang Company has nothing to do with the fact that the Jinu God blesses half a dime, but can it be said here?

Liu Zhibang responded duciously, and Gu Song seized the opportunity and said: "Since I have been blessed by the great god of Jinu, I should do something for the great god of Jinu!" ”

Liu Zhibang could only nod again, and Gu Song continued: "Brother Liu is really refreshing, then I will write it down, the Oriental Company is blessed by the great god of Jinu, and is willing to donate 20,000 gold coins to repair the temple, and the Dushan City Lord's Mansion will take over the tribe ......"

Lu Er and Yang Biao heard that their eyes were about to erupt fire, and just as they wanted to attack, Liu Zhibang pressed the two of them with his eyes, turned his head and smiled at Gu Song: "General, what you just said was wrong, it's not 20,000 gold coins, it's 30,000 gold coins, and Dongfang Company is willing to donate 30,000 gold coins, and General Gu Song will repair the temple on his behalf." ”
