Chapter 400: The Secret of Taiping County

In fact, Xiao Yue didn't inquire about the situation in Taiping County at all, she just wanted the tea stall owner to say more about Taiping County.

The boss really said with a very proud expression: "I don't know which one is nonsense with you, my old man is a native of the local area, and Taiping County is just the place where the Huang family lives." He looked at the guests around him, probably because he found that there was no one from the Huang family, so he turned back to Xiaoyue and said: "When you go to Taiping County, you can see the Huang family's old mansion at most, this old mansion is really big, basically half of Taiping County is theirs." ”

Then, he smiled again and said, "But ordinary people can't get in, but the two guest officers are familiar with the Huang family?"

Xiao Yue shook her head, "I'm not familiar, I just want to go and see it." ”

"Oh. The boss had a disappointed look on his face, "Then there's nothing to look at." ”

"That's not right," Xiao Yue suddenly said, "The big families like the Huang family choose to live in Taiping County, there must be something special there, right?"

"Haha," the boss suddenly laughed, "you young man, you still have a very smart head." He looked back at the nearby table and said, "I'm going to pour hot water for the guests, you drink tea first, and I'll come back to chat with you when I'm free." ”

"Ahh Xiao Yue looked at the boss's back in disappointment, and sighed, "Hey, I still don't know the situation over there." ”

Xing Xiaoyu said calmly: "Childe, why don't we go over directly to see the situation." ”

Xiao Yue waved her hand, "Let's see the situation first." As soon as he finished speaking, someone at the next table began to speak.

"Two sons, are you from out of town?"

Xiao Yue looked back and saw that it was the Boss Fu, and the middle-aged man beside him was no longer there.

"Yes, this boss doesn't know what to call it!" Satsuki stood up and saluted him.

"Little brother, sit down and talk. Boss Fu waved his hand politely, "The surname Fu is again, it is the boss of this Sancha Lake, even if I have one more mouth, then Taiping County, you should not go." ”

Xiao Yue asked puzzledly, "Boss Fu, what do you mean by this?"

"Hehehe... Boss Fu snorted and didn't answer Xiaoyue's question directly, he looked at Xing Xiaoyu and said, "This young man looks like he is powerful and powerful, and he is from the army, and you... He looked at Xiao Yue and said, "This son is polite and polite, like a scholar, you are not looking for someone to do some errands." ”

Xiao Yue smiled, gave him a thumbs up, and said, "Boss Fu has good eyesight, our family is in business, and the master of the family is going to open a shop here." ”

"Oh, hahaha," Boss Fu smiled and said, "That's pretty much it." He blinked his eyes and said, "Dare to ask what kind of business your master does?"

Xiao Yue had a flash of inspiration, she knew that Sancha Lake belonged to Pingjing Prefecture, and the silver village in Pingjing Prefecture was Leji Silver Village.

She had heard Hu Changqi mention before that the old man of Leji Yinzhuang had just passed away, and the current boss happened to be a young man under the age of thirty.

"Well... Xiao Yue said again and again, "My boss is doing small business, small business, hehe." ”

"I don't know what kind of business your boss does, maybe I can deal with it in the future. ”

"It's for gold and silver jewelry. Xiao Yue ignored Xing Xiaoyu's widening eyes, and then said, "There should be a chance to cooperate with Boss Fu in the future." ”

"Okay. Seeing that she didn't want to say it explicitly, Boss Fu also expressed his understanding and said, "That's it, if you need me in the future, you will come to the dock to find me." He pointed to a shop not far from the tea stall, "This is where I opened a shop, and I can provide you with a guy who needs to load and unload goods, and a warehouse that temporarily hoards goods." ”

"Thank you so much Boss Fu. Xiao Yue said quietly.

"This Sancha Lake is a good place to do business, and you can suggest your boss try it here. After speaking, he got up and said to the tea stall owner: "Lao Guan, I'm leaving, and the money is on the table." ”

"Okay, Boss Fu, you go slowly!" said the white-bearded boss with a smile, and then walked over with a tea tray and a rag.

While cleaning up the tea bowl on Boss Fu's table, he said to Xiaoyue and them: "Lao Fu is very honest in business, and there is nothing wrong with looking for him." ”

"Well, thank you boss for the reminder. Xiao Yue took out a silver ingot and put it in front of Boss Guan's eyes, "Boss, you haven't spoken what you said just now." ”

Boss Guan was wiping the table seriously, and suddenly a silver ingot appeared in front of him, he looked at the white silver, shook it for a moment, and then said with a smile: "This son, why are you doing this?"

Xiao Yue sighed and said helplessly: "There is no way, I am also doing things for my master, and now the situation is not clear, and I can't hand over the errand!"

The boss glanced left and right, then picked up the silver and handed it back to Xiao Yue, "You better take this." ”

Xiao Yue shook her head, and then asked, "Boss, but what is difficult to say?"

"No," Boss Guan said with a smile, "It's not a secret, you can't do this." ”

Xiao Yue also smiled, "Boss Guan, at this time, there are fewer guests in your tea stall, why don't you sit down and I invite you to have a cup of tea?"

Lao Guan pulled a chair and sat down, beating his legs while saying, "No need, I'm just sitting down and resting." ”

Seeing that he was willing to talk to him, Xiao Yue was overjoyed, and quickly cut to the chase, "What's wrong with Taiping County? Why don't you and Boss Fu want us to go there?"

Lao Guan smiled bitterly, "That's the territory of the Huang family, if it's not for the Huang family, can you take root there?"

Xiao Yue asked curiously, "This Huang family is also a salt merchant who produces and sells salt, how can he have such great ability?"

"Hey, you don't understand. Lao Guan thumped his leg and sighed, "This salt is no better than other things, unlike the gold and silver jewelry you sell." Salt is something that everyone has to buy and eat, and this salt well is the Huang family's cornucopia!"

"Then they are at most the rich side, can't we outsiders go there to do business?"

"Don't talk about Taiping County, this is it. Lao Guan looked around, and his voice suddenly became much quieter, "Here in Sancha Lake, the Huang family's speech is also quite effective. ”

"This... Xiao Yue was a little puzzled, after all, she used to live in an ivory tower, and she didn't expect such a situation.

"Then the Huang family must leave a way for others to live, their family can't interfere in any industry, right?"

"Of course, but ... Lao Guan suddenly lowered his face and said: "From the state capital of Pingjing Prefecture to the magistrate of Taiping County, that is not closely related to the Huang family. ”

"So what?" Xiao Yue knew that a wealthy merchant like the Huang family had a very close relationship with the big officials in Yingjun City, not to mention the local officials.

"Your master is not in business, he should understand this situation. After Lao Guan finished speaking, he stood up, cleaned up the table and said: "If your family is really looking for a store to do business, then it is in Sancha Lake, there are many businessmen coming and going from the south to the north here, unlike Taiping County, basically the Huang family has the final say, and when you buy a store, no one may want to sell." ”
