Chapter 159: Becoming an Imperial Merchant

The east side of Taiping Street in Tai'an City is a place where rich merchants gather, and almost all the rich merchants of the entire Daqian Dynasty are gathered here, and these rich merchants are really rich merchants, and there is a fundamental difference between them and those local merchants and rich people. Many of these wealthy merchants were doing business with the imperial court, and the daily expenses in the palace were very large, although the manufacturing office was responsible for the manufacture of royal goods, but many extremely ordinary things, such as daily necessities such as melons, fruits and vegetables, were also purchased by the imperial palace in the private sector, so there were targeted cooperating people.

The merchants who cooperated with the royal family were called imperial merchants by the common people, and these imperial merchants were the richest among the great merchants. Although these emperors may not stay in Tai'an City all the year round, they all have their own homesteads in Tai'an City, and the east of the city is the place where the emperors and merchants gather, so the land price here can be described as an inch of land, and ordinary people can't afford it at all.

In the east of the city, there is a rather large mansion, which is the palace of a prince of the previous dynasty. This palace is quite magnificent, covering an area of 100 acres, with six courtyards before and after, and many other courtyards on both sides. Originally, such a magnificent mansion should have been scrambled to buy, but this mansion was not cared for. It's just that today, this mansion, which has been abandoned for decades, has been repainted, and it looks magnificent, with gray walls and green tiles. In this Tai'an City, in addition to the palace, even the courtyard of a first-class master is not as good as this mansion. I saw three big gold characters written on the plaque outside the house, Gongsun Mansion.

Since this Gongsun clan, it has been in Tai'an City for nearly half a month. According to the Gongsun family's family business is very large and strong, it only took half a month to make those imperial merchants in the east of the city bow down, and reached a lot of deals with the Qianchang Palace, and many of the previous imperial merchants have lost the opportunity to continue to cooperate with the Qianchang Palace, just because the things of the Gongsun family are really good enough. In this regard, those imperial merchants had no choice, and it was naturally up to the people in the Qianchang Palace to cooperate with whom, and how could they dare to bargain with the emperor.

Many imperial merchants did not blame the Gongsun clan for this, but obeyed their words and looked like they wanted to be attached to the Gongsun clan. Businessmen pursue profits, and everything is profit-oriented. As long as you can survive, as long as you keep the bottom line, it is the same to be attached to anyone.

At this moment, Gongsun Xunhuan, the head of the Gongsun family, and his wife Meng Po were sitting in the main hall, and there were a few fat heads and big ears sitting on their left and right hands, and they looked like wealthy businessmen. Gongsun Xunhuan said to a few soils: "Although a few people have lost the identity of the imperial businessman, my Gongsun family business has no intention of killing everything, and we will cooperate more in business in the future, and mutual benefit is the best." ”

Several fat people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard the words of the head of the family, there is still business to do, and the money they earn can't be spent in three lifetimes, and now this ending is already the best. One of the old men with white hair got up and arched his hand to Li Yunqing, and said with a bit of respect: "Gongsun Gongzi is kind-hearted, and we will only look forward to Gongzi in the future, and there will never be two hearts." In this way, I will take my leave first, and I will not disturb the son and his wife to rest! Seeing Gongsun Xunhuan nodding, the old man and the others left.

Meng Po, who was sitting beside Gongsun Xunhuan, looked at the backs of everyone leaving, and smiled: "Xunhuan, I didn't expect you to be so smart, just half a month has made us an imperial businessman, so it will be much easier to do things in the future." ”

Li Yunqing smiled slightly when he heard this: "These are not worth mentioning, as long as our things are good enough, even the royal family will use them, this has always been the case, people like the best, even today's children are the same." ”

Of course, Li Yunqing knew that it was extremely dangerous to make the Netherworld Dynasty an imperial merchant, for example, one of the transactions between Li Yunqing and the Qianchang Palace was the source of the imperial dining room to purchase various supplies. If the people of the Netherworld Dynasty were doing tricks and feet in the meal, then the entire Daqian royal family would probably suffer a huge blow, and as for those women of Li Yunqing, any of them would go crazy if anything happened to Li Yunqing.

Knowing the danger, he still did this, naturally in order to win the trust of Meng Po, and even more so to win the trust of Emperor Yan, who was high in the Netherworld Dynasty. The reason why he did it was because he wanted to slowly disintegrate the foundation of the Netherworld Dynasty by boiling frogs in warm water, which would take a long time, and the first thing he had to do was to ensure that Meng Po and Emperor Yan would not be suspicious of him. In this way, the imperial court and Jin Wuwei can slowly deal with those merchants under the Netherworld Dynasty, and it will take time to seal down those shops.

It's not that Li Yunqing doesn't want to use thunderous means to take these businesses back from the Netherworld Dynasty, but if he moves too fast, it is inevitable that Emperor Yan's guy will be suspicious, so maybe he will jump off the wall in a hurry, and at that time, things will be difficult to do, Li Yunqing has seen the huge wealth of the Netherworld Dynasty, even he, the king of a country, can't help but be shocked. If the other party finds out and gathers people to fight against the imperial court, even if hundreds of thousands or even millions of soldiers who are not too armed are gathered, it is enough for a big cadre to drink a pot, and the big cadre army has fought twice in a row in the past year, and Li Yunqing has no heart to start a war again. He is not a belligerent person, and war is also for a longer peace, and when it is time to recuperate, Li Yunqing will never use troops without authorization.

Li Yunqing believed that the Netherworld Dynasty had definitely used a lot of illegal means to collect evidence of the other party's violation of national law, and let Jin Wuwei take down those merchants based on these evidence, and not expose himself, which was a difficult thing. Although he had only seen Emperor Yan once, Li Yunqing clearly knew that the guy with huge ambitions was not an ordinary person, and if he was not careful under him, he might be discovered by the other party, and once the other party found out, another big war might be inevitable.

Meng Po now likes the man in front of her more and more, at first she saw him stupid, although now he is still stupid in front of herself, but that is only in front of him he will be stupid, but he is not stupid at all in other things, whether it is martial arts or mentality, it is a first-class excellence. At this moment, Li Yunqing is in Meng Po's heart, that is the man she is destined to be.

"I have already told Emperor Yan about you making the merchants under the throne of our Netherworld Dynasty become imperial merchants, Emperor Yan is very happy, and he will reward you well when we return to Netherworld City!" Meng Po turned around and sat in Li Yunqing's arms as she spoke, and the cherry mouth leaned into Li Yunqing's ear and said softly: "Do you want me to serve you well tonight?" ”

Li Yunqing sighed in his heart when he heard this, he could fight with Meng Po's ears and temples, but he never thought of breaking her body, at least before he solved the Netherworld Dynasty, he would never touch the simple woman in front of him. Even if there is a reason, even if it is for the sake of the country, he will still keep his final bottom line. With a flash of light in his eyes, Li Yunqing smiled and said: "Changjun, I am rare to you, so I can't be anxious, how can I wait until the night of the candle in the cave room this week, otherwise I will be slighting you!" ”

Meng Po was stunned when she heard this, looked at Li Yunqing's gentle eyes, and couldn't help shedding a tear in her eyes, put her arms around Li Yunqing's neck, and said a little choked: "I was picked up from the street by Emperor Yan's brother, except that he has never been as good to me as you, how can Changjun be virtuous in this life, and he has not done anything good, but he has won your heart." ”
