Quanzhou New Town, Yongle Fang. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ{/\.\.\}

The people gathered here are all big commercial houses, "who can rent a store in Yongle Fang, and they are definitely the number one merchants in Quanzhou." "A small façade and the monthly rent of the back house are worth half a year's income of a small workshop." But the more so, the more the firms in Quanzhou want to gain a foothold here, "being able to squeeze a position here is a symbol, which means strong financial resources and enough credibility."

Therefore, the guys here "are usually well-dressed, can read and write, and always have a smile like a Yu signature on their faces" These people have a good income" The work they do is actually not heavy, and what they have to do every day is just to greet the merchants who come and go, and negotiate shipments and purchasing matters on behalf of their shopkeepers.

The people of Quanzhou call this and the new profession Bai Ding, which means that "although they do work, although they are poisonous, they are also paid by others", but they are spotless, and "the income is extremely rich."

There are more than 600 trading houses here, and tens of thousands of merchants from the Great Song Dynasty, Quanzhou, Nanyang, and Wadao are looking for business opportunities here. Every early morning, when the sky is just dawning, "all the doors are opened in unison", the door face does not actually accumulate goods, "the interior is very well decorated, antique" like a deep princely hall, the wall is a famous calligraphy and painting, "the floor is paved with real wax sandalwood", and then a layer of blankets are paved with big food, "the tables and chairs are all the latest styles of the times", graceful, bold, and so on, the small and exquisite lamp stand Dan Ran is dancing with light, there are incense burners on the table, in addition, there are beautiful screens, plain porcelain bottles. Just like that, the place, some of the Bai Ding went out, some sat here to drink tea, and some merchants came, so they got up to welcome the guests, poured tea and "sat on the part" to talk and laugh.

If Quanzhou is the pearl of the Great Song Dynasty, then Yongle Fang is the crystal nucleus in this pearl, and the business negotiated here every day "let the merchant ships at the wharf sail and anchor" also makes the smoke billowing out of the workshop, "so that countless people have a livelihood and maintain the operation of the entire Quanzhou."

At present, the business in Quanzhou is becoming more and more difficult to do, and the role of Yongle Fang is highlighted, "In order to grab a catty, merchants who are willing to eat food, Bai Ding has used all his tricks, and the means of attracting customers are full of tricks."

However, a trading house located in the center of Yongle Fang is an outlier, they are obviously not in a hurry to go out to solicit customers, and the face is not the same as other commercial houses, this is a building with an obvious Great Yue style, and the white Ding in it also has Yue people who are familiar with Yu Han dialect, "their skin is slightly dark, and they are shorter" There is a vigilance in their eyes not to be close to the living. Site

The commercial house is called Xingyue Commercial Bank, and the Bai Ding here usually has little to do with people, "only occasionally there will be some merchants from the Great Yue Country who will enter and greet them warmly." It is said that there are three shipyards and a large caravan, and in addition, "the status of the Governor of the Great Viet Kingdom is also transcendental, "almost thirty percent of the goods flowing into the Yue Kingdom are sold by them to all parts of the Yue Kingdom." Such a big business" but people can't help but be suspicious, this prosperous shopkeeper has never seen anyone. Originally, this Quanzhou commercial house has always liked to partner around, "Don't say that no matter how big your business is, you must always integrate into the circle, so that you can support each other" and make a fortune. Xingyue trading houses do not agree, whether their shopkeepers are male or female, "whether it is a Yue or Han Chinese, no one can still know."

At first, "there were people who wanted to deal with this firm," but over time, "their indifferent attitude finally made people abandon it." Some people have even asserted that sooner or later they will suffer losses in such a business style", but what no one expected was that today, the business of various commercial banks is becoming more and more difficult, and "Xingyue Commercial Banks are actually becoming more and more prosperous", and even took advantage of the opportunity to acquire several endangered commercial banks in succession, which became the focus of attention of thousands of people for a while. The shop in Xingyue Commercial House is actually not as beautiful as others, and even has a bit of exotic color" There are two catties sitting in it, Bai Ding, muttering what to say in Vietnamese, while eating line flower tea" The two looked out of the door from time to time, as if they were expecting something, and after a while, a carriage finally stopped steadily.

The two Yue people Bai Ding immediately got up and walked quickly to meet them, the carriage stopped steadily in front of the door, the curtain was lifted, and one Yue walked down. This person's complexion is not too dark in comparison, "but his age is not small", he is around forty, and under his chin is a unique beard of Yue people, a pair of eyes just glanced at the two Yue people who came to greet him, and then got out of the car coldly and walked straight towards the inner hall.

He sat down in the hall unceremoniously, and then cocked the tui, and the two Yue people, Bai Ding, poured him tea, and the other catty, and went to the back house, "After a while, the Bai Ding quietly retreated, "From the purpose of the back house, "walked out of a bloated Yue person, "This short and fat Yue man is wearing a good round-necked man's shirt" and holding a white fan in his hand, "But as soon as he saw the guest sitting in the center of this hall, he immediately put away the white fan, walked up to the guest respectfully, bowed, and said, "Mr. Mang." M Dao was just called Mr. Kui's eyebrows furrowed, and he looked coldly at the short and fat Yue Ren ......, Z Otter Lan said in disgust: "I have said it a few times, don't call Mr. Cai when I get here, my surname is Yin now" is called Ruan Yuan, but remember that "no matter how confused" I am, I will go back to Zhancheng. ”

The short and fat Yue Ren was so frightened that his face turned a little pale, and he immediately said, "Yes" I remembered" Mr. Ruan came from Zhancheng thousands of miles away, but he brought Wang ...... The edict of the big shopkeeper? ”

Mr. Mu took a sip of tea slowly, and said casually: "This Exian flower tea is not delicious," or Wuyi tea, which is full of color and fragrance, "Later, I will ask someone to weigh a pound of good Wuyi tea." He "put down the teacup" and continued, "Has the news been confirmed?" The king of Pingxi is coming to Quanzhou? ”

Yue Dao: "It's confirmed" that the people have arrived in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and they will go to sea on a certain day.

Mr. Mu closed his eyes, compared to the Kwai Ling in front of him, his complexion was much darker, and his beard was changed to the style of the Yue people, "If you don't play carefully, I'm afraid no one will remember" The favorite minister who used to be in the Great Song Dynasty, and then the Great Song Qin criminal, has now become the shopkeeper behind the Xingyue Commercial Bank.

Cai You escaped overseas and "learned from the pain, took the money of the old mansion of hundreds of Xiang Army", first hid in the jurisdiction of the Governor of Dayue, and started business in the country of Dayue in the name of a commercial house. Cai You has always been a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing, "after a few twists and turns, the business is not only getting bigger and bigger", but also saw the opportunity, grasped the psychology of the king of Dayue, and got in touch with the royal family of Dayue in one fell swoop.

The king of Dayue is the lord of the magnificence, and the cession of the governor's territory is a last resort, and when he sees that the country of Dayue is getting poorer and thinner, "a large amount of wealth flows into Quanzhou with sea trade", his heart has long been dissatisfied, but at that time, the entire Nanyang was under the control of the Great Song Dynasty sailors, and no one responded, and the king of Dayue actually did not dare to act rashly. But with the reckless trick of knowing the Great Song Dynasty well and being full of wisdom, "everything began to be different."

This Xingyue Commercial Bank is a disguise, and it is also a nail buried deep in Quanzhou.

Hearing that the king of Pingxi was coming to Quanzhou, Cai You couldn't help rubbing his hands excitedly, and then, Kwai You calmed down again, and said lightly: "His Royal Highness the King will also enter Quanzhou one day, in addition" the big cannibal is also ready, take Quanzhou "can kill the king of Pingxi, the surname Shen is dead" The Great Song Dynasty Dragons have no leader" This sea policy must not be maintained, and at that time, "Quanzhou is a dead port, a stinky port" but ......"

Makuki smiled faintly, "Xiong said with confidence: "You go and tell the Tianyi Sect to get ready" and "Let the news out, just say that the Tianyi Sect is going to assassinate the vassals and princes of various countries and assassinate the King of Pingxi" The momentum is louder. ”

Yue Ren wandered for a while, looked at the recommended trick in confusion, and said: "Sir, if the Tianyi Sect just spies on the news for us, it may be a little useful" Let them assassinate the princes, I am afraid that ......"

Cai You said in a tone that did not need to be questioned: "If you want to go, you can go" They are short of manpower, so they will take out the money" Let them recruit more people, who is not in this Quanzhou Sanjiao and Nine Streams? Only hummed the money, "Can't you buy your life?" ”

The Yue people still feel that it is inappropriate" said: "If you recruit people from outside", I am afraid that in the end, someone will leak the news, and at that time, the remnants of the Tianyi Sect supported by Mr. will not be in danger of being wiped out? In my opinion, this thing should be done, "or let us do it. ”

The shogune frowned, and said, "Ruan Zheng, you came to Quanzhou on the orders of the king" Did the king say that everything here "is up to me?" ”

The Yue people who called Ruan Zheng didn't dare to disobey, and said, "Yes, since Mr. said so, then I'll do it." ”

Mu Yu stopped him: "Come back, there is one more thing to tell me, I have drawn up a list of assassinations here, you can take it and take a look." He pulled out a list from his sleeve," Ruan Zheng immediately stepped forward quickly, and took it with both hands, "glanced at the list hastily," a look of horror flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but say, "Sir, even His Royal Highness the King is among the assassins?" ”

Makuyu slowly stood up and said, "Then you'll know what's going on, go ahead. . . ”

Ruan Zheng took the list and went out to "take a sip of tea slowly", Xu was confident in his overall plan, he couldn't help laughing, but then "recklessly put on a straight face and made a cautious gesture." The reason why he lost to Shen Ao was because he was overconfident and too proud, and now, he would never be able to make the same mistake again.

"Where is the flaw...... Cai Jiao put down the teacup and leaned back lazily on the chair, [email protected]/*
