The main purpose of Yuan Mu and Qin Chuan coming to Shangguanxiu was to plan to set up branch halls in various counties, but with Zimingtang and these people present, it was not easy for the two of them to talk about it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info please search (Pin % book ¥¥ net)!

Shangguan Xiu was very polite to the three old patriarchs of Zimingtang, Jiang Shang and Nie Feng, and gave up his seat and asked people to serve tea and snacks.

Nie Feng is Nie Zhen's grandfather, and with Nie Feng present, Nie Zhen, who has always been noisy and talkative, also stopped at this time, and stood aside in a proper manner.

After the polite greetings, Shangguan Xiu cut to the topic first and asked with a smile: "This time, the three old marquis came to visit together, so there must be something to discuss with me, right?"

Although the three of Zimingtang, Jiang Shang and Nie Feng have all returned to their hometowns and are idle at home, their titles are still there, and all three of them are marquises.

Hearing Shangguan Xiu's words, the three of them exchanged each other, and Nie Feng took the lead in speaking: "Regarding the matter of the children of the junior generation joining the Shura Hall, in fact, we, the big parents, are not very approves. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Zhen, who was standing not far away, blushed, and immediately spoke: "Grandpa......"

"Shut up for me!" Nie Feng glared at Nie Zhen fiercely and drank in a deep voice. Nie Zhen shrank in fright, not daring to continue speaking.

Nie Feng smiled indifferently at Shangguan Xiu, his demeanor revealed condescending, and he continued: "Zhenguo Gong should also understand that like Ah Ling and Ah Leopard Ah Zhen, they are officials in the court, hold important positions in the army, and their words and deeds represent not themselves, but the big family behind them. Joining Shura Hall, this is not a trivial matter, once there is a mess, it will be the entire family that will be implicated, I don't know if what the old man said is reasonable?"

Shangguan Xiu nodded and said, "What Old Marquis Nie said is reasonable. Seeing that Nie Zhen was about to speak, Shangguan Xiu waved his hand at him and signaled him not to say much. He asked with a smile: "So, the three old marquis came here today, but they want to withdraw from the Shura Hall on behalf of their respective children and grandchildren?"

Hearing Shangguan Xiu's straightforward question, Nie Feng was just about to speak, but Zimingtang spoke first, smiled leisurely, and said: "I heard that the number of firecrackers in the inventory of the Zhenjun Forge has tens of thousands, and it is more than enough to equip the entire Zhenjun army, and the remaining firecrackers are about to be sold outside, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

It turned out that the three of them were here to make profits! Shangguan Xiu was so smart that as soon as he heard the words, he guessed through the thoughts in the other party's stomach. He smiled, nodded, and said, "I do have such a plan. ”

The old god Jiang Shang said on the ground: "As the saying goes, fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, the boys of my three families are all in the Shura Hall, and the business of the Shura Hall should also be divided into the three of us to do it!"

As an official in the court, the official title is given by the emperor, today it may be high and powerful, and tomorrow it may be nothing, but the money is different, and if you earn real money in your hands, it will really be your own.

Shangguan Xiu smiled silently, narrowed his eyes slightly, and his bright and sharp gaze swept over the faces of the three of them one by one. In terms of the face of the three of them, he can treat Jiang Shang and Nie Feng of Zimingtang with courtesy and respect each other as elders, but if they misunderstand their respect, thinking that they can coerce themselves and coerce them into having to give benefits to them, then it would be a big mistake, in his eyes, the strength of their Zi family, Jiang family, and Nie family has not yet reached the point of being unshakable.

Seeing that Shangguan Xiu was smiling on his face, but his eyes became cold and sharp, and the crystal light was shining, Nie Zhen stomped his foot fiercely, and reminded meaningfully: "Grandpa, Ah Xiu is the future prince!"

The implication is that to blackmail Shangguanxiu is tantamount to blackmailing the emperor, no matter how strong the strength of the Zi family, the Jiang family, and the Nie family's power are deep-rooted, in the final analysis, they are just servants of the royal family, how can they not distinguish the priority now?

Zimingtang Jiang Shang Nie Feng is naturally an old fox, sophisticated, extremely smart, Xiu's eyes are wrong, and the three of them also understand that their words have annoyed Shangguan Xiu.

The three of them were just about to speak, Shangguan Xiu picked up the teacup and said slowly: "I never knew that it turned out that there were all kinds of harm and no benefit for helping me and standing on the side with me, and I needed to spend money to buy it and dredge it." ”

"Zhen Guogong, that's not what we meant......

"I don't care what the three old marquis mean, there is a sentence, I think I should also make it clear to the three of them, Shura Hall never coerces anyone to join, and anyone who chooses Shura Hall is voluntary, however, Shura Hall is not a place where you can come and go if you want, if you want to quit, you can, but you also have to pay the corresponding price. ”

The faces of the three of Zimingtang, Jiang Shang and Nie Feng all changed, their faces sank like water, and they said in unison: "Zhenguo Gong, you ......"

Shangguan Xiu didn't give them a chance to speak, and continued: "However, in the face of the old marquis, if Brother Zi Ah Bao Ah Zhen really wants to quit the Shura Hall, I will not stop it, nor will I put forward any conditions, but you also have to remember for me, from now on, the three of you will have nothing to do with my Shura Hall, and anything that happens will have nothing to do with my Shura Hall, and I and the Shura Hall will never contribute to the three of you again, now, the three of them can go, and the Zhenguo Mansion does not welcome people with evil intentions and malicious coercion!"

"Ah Xiu, I won't retreat ......" Nie Zhen's brain was already sweating, what was this today, he had never thought of quitting Shura Hall.

Halfway through his words, Guan Xiu suddenly gave him a meaningful look, and he understood that Ah Xiu was deliberately scaring the three old patriarchs. He closed his mouth in amusement, and muttered secretly in his heart: Yes! This is the end of self-indulgence! The three old patriarchs thought that Ah Xiu was a brother and sister to these little characters on weekdays, so they regarded Ah Xiu as a junior, thinking that he was weak and easy to bully, but even Cai Xiao suffered a big loss in Ah Xiu's hands, let alone them?

The relationship was not negotiated, and Shangguan Xiu was offended, Zimingtang and Nie Feng glared at Jiang Shang fiercely, Jiang Shang himself was also full of embarrassment, and said hesitantly: "Zhenguo Gong, old man...... The old man didn't mean that......"

"Yes, Zhenguo Gong misunderstood, we didn't mean to ask the grandchildren of the junior generation to quit Shura Hall. Zi Mingtang and Nie Feng explained.

Shangguan Xiu said with a smile: "Yes or no, what I want to say is that if Shura Hall is really good to share, the first thing I think of is naturally my own brothers, even if they don't ask me, I will share it with them, but what I hate the most is that others threaten me, I will never be polite to such people, the same words, I only said this time, the three old marquis, but they all understand?"

Zimingtang Jiang Shang Nie Feng secretly sighed, his face was more difficult than the other, and he rubbed his hands and said, "Zhen Guogong, the old man won't bother much." ”

While speaking, the three of them all stood up in unison, intending to go home.

Shangguan Xiule waved his hand and said, "Since the three old marquis have already come, don't be in a hurry to leave, at noon, can you stay in the house for dinner?"

"That'...... What's so embarrassing?"

"Hehe, actually, even if the three old marquis don't come today, I plan to send someone to invite the three. ”

"Huh, is there anything wrong with Zhenguogong?"

"Hmm. Actually, I really want to cooperate with the three of you when it comes to the fire gun business. "Shangguan Xiu is not slapping someone, and then giving a sweet date to eat, he does have the intention of cooperating with the Zi family, the Jiang family, and the Nie family, the three of them, that is, they are prestigious, rich and powerful, and they are also trustworthy when they cooperate. However, as he said, there are benefits, and he can share them with them, but if the other party relies on it to ask for it, thinking that he is easy to bully, then he will not be polite to the other party.

Unexpectedly, the matter that had already collapsed suddenly took a turn for the better, hearing Shangguan Xiu's words, the three of Zimingtang, Jiang Shang and Nie Feng were surprised and delighted, and the body that had just stood up sat back in a hurry, with an expression on his face, there was no arrogance when he first came, and some of them were full of kindness and laughter and flattery.

"The three old marquis should also understand that the fire gun business is unique at present, and once it is done, it can be described as a million profits. ”

"Exactly!" The three of Zimingtang nodded again and again, indicating that Shangguan Xiu was right, if it was not profitable, why bother the three old patriarchs to go out in person? Shangguan Xiu smiled: "Then let's talk while eating and slowly agree on this matter." ”

"So good, so good!" said the three old men, all laughing.

Nie Zhen, Qi Fei and others were on the side, Chu understood and admired Shangguan Xiu's communication skills.

When he came, Zimingtang Jiang Shang and Nie Feng all relied on their status as the patriarch to drag two hundred and fifty or eighty thousand, and now, the three of them are obedient to Shangguan Xiu, respectful and flattering, and do their best to please them.

At present, the production capacity of Zhenjun Forging Workshop 1 and Forging Workshop 2 has reached the level where it can be mass-produced, and the output is rising in a straight line, while meeting the needs of the Zhenjun Army, there is still a large amount of surplus, but Shangguan Xiu guessed that Tang Ling should soon let himself provide firearms for the Central Army.

The reason why this matter was not raised now was because there was no money in the treasury, and Tang Ling also knew that he would not produce firecrackers for her in vain, which was also unrealistic, after all, Zhenjun was still poor, and when the gold and silver transported by the Zhenjun army arrived in Shangjing, and the ministers' donations had also arrived, Tang Ling would inevitably find himself and buy a large number of firecrackers.

Therefore, although there are a lot of firecrackers hoarded in Zhenjun at present, there are not many firecrackers that can really be sold outside, Shangguan Xiu has calculated that the number of firecrackers that can be sold does not exceed 1,000, of which 500 must be sold by the county government of Zhenjun, and the other 500 cannot all be given to the Zijiajiang family and the Nie family, but must be evenly distributed to many merchants, after all, in the early stage, Shuratang has received a lot of benefits from others, and Shangguan Xiu can't help but do what he promised to others.
