Chapter 116: Conversation

Today's Mani District is very different from the past, from time to time you can see people running in one direction on the street, and the two confused people stopped and asked, only to know that there is a big bustle in the West Border Commercial Bank to see, and they are happy to rush over together. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

When I ran to the firm, the scene was already crowded with people, everyone gathered together and discussed, all kinds of voices were intertwined, and even the two needed to shout and speak to each other to hear clearly.

Some of the people who had just arrived at the scene were still unclear, so they pulled the people around them and asked what was going on? After asking too much, someone was finally willing to answer, and pointed with his hand, "Look at it!" and looked up, although it was not as eye-catching as at night, the four bright characters of "Western Border Commercial Company" still firmly attracted everyone's attention during the day.

"What is that? Is it made up of a lot of lamps? Or is it just a big headlamp? This Western Territory Trading House is really wealthy, so many lamps are burning at the same time, how much lamp oil does it cost every moment?"

"Wrong, wrong, look at the light, bright white and white, how can there be any lamp oil lit is this color, just now the Westside Merchant House opened, someone has already asked the guys there, I heard that it is a new product drummed up by the Westfrontier Firm, called electric light. ”

The people around him were stunned, "Electric light?" This name sounds fresh enough, and the name has a little bit in it, isn't it related to lightning in the sky?"

"Hey, how can I know here, don't care what's going on with this electric light, the Westside Comptoir is in the limelight today. It is said that this lamp has been on last night, until this morning, in the future, as long as everyone looks up, you can see the four big characters of the bright and bright western trading bank, this head is where to go, the steel ball falls on the jade plate - dangdang sound. ”

"That's a joke, how can it be kept on, such a big lamp has been burning, and the lamp oil consumed for a day has gone to the sea, it's not burning oil, it's burning money." Not to mention the mercy of the gods in the past two days, the sun is shining, if there is a windy and rainy situation, natural disasters and disasters, this light will not be extinguished. ”

"But why does this lamp look like there is no smoke, it stands to reason that such a big lamp should be billowing with green smoke, and now it looks like there is no smoke at all. ”

"That's right, it's really unreasonable. Everyone started talking about it, and someone interjected: "Who said that when the lamp oil is lit, it will smoke? ”

Everyone looked at the person who spoke, and saw that they were dressed like people in carriages and horses, and these people had traveled from south to north and far, and they had seen a lot, but it was indeed possible to know, and they asked him one after another.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, the man secretly felt proud, cleared his throat, and said slowly: "In the southern realm, there is a magical animal that lives in the Forest of the Silver Moon, and its name is called Centene. As the name suggests, it is a kind of mink with a fragrance all over its body, which is usually only as long as an adult's arm, and its whole body has a charming aroma and does not have the smell that ordinary animals have. Kill a mink, and ignite the lamp oil made of skin and flesh, not only without a little disgust, but also exude a faint fragrance, just like spices. ”

Seeing that everyone looked suddenly enlightened, this person's heart became more and more proud. But someone asked: "You said that this mink oil will have a fragrance when it is lit, why don't everyone smell the fragrance?"

The man was stunned for a moment, thinking that I just heard the old guy in the line talk about the mink, where do I know the specifics, seeing that everyone was looking at him, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed and angry: "Qingxiang, do you understand Qingxiang? Do you think it's a sweet and salty taste? Let you smell it can be called Qingxiang?"

Not to mention the noisy group of people gathered outside the trading house, inside the commercial bank building, President Sasha, who has always been a dragon and has never seen the end of the head, is smiling and circling with a group of people, looking closely at these people are all richly dressed, wearing gold and silver, and they are all followed by a few followers, presumably all of them are wealthy merchants with a lot of money.

An old man sitting on Sasha's left side coughed and said, "First of all, I want to congratulate President Sasha, the four big characters of the Western Border Commercial Bank can be clearly seen in the entire Shenghui City, and in the future, the Western Border Commercial Bank will have a great reputation and prosperous business, so you can take care of us a lot." ”

"Yes, yes, please take care of me in the future. Several other people present echoed one after another, and Sasha waved his hand again and again, "You always wear a high hat for me, and I will be so drunk that I can't open the door and do business if I pour this ecstasy soup any more." This sounds humble, but it always feels like a sting.

The old man's wrinkles were staggered, and his cheeks twitched a few times like dead wood, and he said with a smile: "You can say that you are laughing, everyone is sincere in what you say, why did it become ecstasy soup in your mouth?", he leaned over and said with emotion: "After so many years, I have come over and said that I have not used methods to trick people, you must not believe it, of course I have used some methods, otherwise I would not be able to sit here in peace today." ”

He patted his chair and said, "As the saying goes, there is no business without treachery, and there is no business without treachery." This business is like a boat on the river, the river is full of reefs, undercurrents are everywhere, and if you are not careful, the boat will be destroyed and people will die, and there will be no corpses. Therefore, we had to use all means and every means to maintain the stability of this big ship. ”

Speaking of emotion, he turned to greet the other businessmen present: "Who doesn't want to be honest and honest and do business?

The old man nodded, approached Sasha, and patted Sasha's hand again, "I used to have some disputes with President Sasha because of business, so the old man will accompany President Sasha, and I also hope that President Sasha's belly can support the boat, forgive the old man, everyone is harmonious and wealthy." He laughed out loud.

Sasha had a smile on his face, and he didn't know how many words of "old dog" he scolded in his heart, but this old guy first played the sentimental card, and then won the support of the others here, and now he wants to reconcile with him. If Sasha does not agree to reconcile, it will be narrow, not respectful enough for his predecessors, and offended the other businessmen present, so Sasha has no choice but to accept it.
