Chapter 175: I'm done
"In the midst of today's busy schedule, please come, there are two things ......"
After everyone was seated, Zhao Yuping retired from the woman who served the tea and personally added tea to the people present.
"This first thing is because I offended Yongqingbo yesterday, and I specially invite you to be a witness and make amends to Yongqingbo!"
Saying that, Zhao Yu beckoned, and Erha on the side took the box in his arms and handed it to Zhao Yu.
After Zhao Yu took the box, he came to Yongqingbo and opened the box with his hand.
Fifty taels of silver, a full twenty ingas.
"Yesterday in Yuheng Rice Shop, the lower official offended Yongqingbo, and please don't remember the villain."
Zhao Yu said, pushing the box in front of Yongqingbo.
"Well said, well said."
Looking at the box full of silver, the folds on Yongqingbo's face bloomed.
His eyes were fixed on the silver in front of him, and he stretched out a pair of calloused hands and took the silver box into his arms.
That look, for fear that someone would rob him.
is different from Yongqingbo's heartlessness, and several giant businessmen are forced to laugh.
They knew very well that if it was just to make amends, why didn't the people invited by Zhao Yu be from the officialdom, but from these giant businessmen?
Therefore, the first thing is just a reason, and the second thing is the purpose of Zhao Yu inviting them to tea.
"Now that Yongqing Bo is satisfied, this matter is over!"
Zhao Yu looked at Yongqing Bo, who was eager to stick both eyes on the silver, and smiled weirdly.
"That'...... What is this second thing? ”
One of the wealthy businessmen got up slightly trembling and asked with a fist at Zhao Yu.
Except for Yongqingbo, who was holding the silver and smirking, everyone else pricked up their ears the moment this person's words fell.
"The second thing is a great thing for you!" Zhao Yu looked around and said mysteriously.
A great thing?
Looking at the smile on Zhao Yu's face, several wealthy businessmen were shocked for no reason.
"And the good thing?!"
On the contrary, it was Yongqing Bo, hearing Zhao Yu say that there was still a good thing, and his eyes finally left the silver in his arms.
Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!
Zhao Yu clapped his hands gently, Jin Yichuan, who was waiting outside the teahouse, took a long brocade box in.
After taking the brocade box, Zhao Yu opened the Xuanji buckle and took out a framed plaque from it.
"Everyone's optimistic......"
Zhao Yu placed the scroll on the table in the middle of the tea room and slowly unfolded it.
Righteous business through the ages!
On the scroll, there are four big characters of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.
"What kind of bird is this?!"
Everyone else was wondering what kind of drama Zhao Yu was singing in their hearts, but Yongqingbo, who was full of anticipation, pouted.
He doesn't know a single word, and this thing naturally doesn't have the reality of that box of silver for him.
Listening to Yongqingbo's words, Zhao Yu sneered in his heart.
It's no wonder that the emperor wants to get rid of this guy, how can such a person become a great leader?
"Everyone, this town envoy is a Qiu Ba who doesn't know how to write and ink, dare to ask a few, how are these words written?"
Zhao Yule looked at the giant businessmen who came up and asked with a smile.
"Good! The pen walks the dragon and snake, and there is a majestic atmosphere between the outlines! Good word!! ”
"Yes, the ink immersion is smooth, in one go, it is a rare good product!"
……
The rich businessmen who came around, whether they knew it or not, were all patted up anyway.
Seeing that everyone's sycophants were almost done, Zhao Yu said directly: "I won't sell it to you." ”
"These four words were given by the current emperor and ordered by the envoy of this town to all of you here!!"
"Ah?!!h
When Zhao Yu's words fell, the five people surrounding the scroll all subconsciously took a step back.
The emperor has given you, and you have been a righteous merchant through the ages!
For their traders, it's not just the smoke of the ancestral tomb, but the fire of the ancestral tomb!
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live......"
After the shock, several people quickly bowed down and kowtowed to the scroll on the case.
"Cut ......"
Only Yongqingbo, who was holding the silver box, looked at the people who kowtowed like pounding garlic, and pouted his lips disdainfully.
In his opinion, this is just a few words written by his father-in-law, what is the fuss!
……
After everyone got up, Zhao Yu refilled the tea.
"This is the only one of His Majesty's imperial plaques, and if everyone here wants to take it into their pockets, they have to rely on their own abilities!"
Zhao Yu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said lightly.
Here it comes......
The hearts of the giant businessmen moved, this is the purpose of Zhao Yu inviting them here today!
However, they can't let go of this great glory.
Except for Yongqingbo, the others present were not fuel-efficient lamps.
Naturally, I understand that on the scroll in front of me, there are not just the four words of Yishang through the ages.
This is the most dazzling golden sign in the world, and the value behind it is almost immeasurable!
"Please also make it clear to the Pacification Envoy!"
Several people got up one after another, looking at Zhao Yu who was drinking tea with burning eyes.
It is impossible for the emperor to bestow such a favor for no reason, and there must be conditions attached.
However, they also know in their hearts that the snow disaster in Zhili in the north of Daqianbei has not yet passed, and the imperial court needs no more than grain and silver.
As long as the price is right, they don't mind taking this plaque from the emperor in their pockets!
"In that case, then the envoy of the town will speak bluntly."
Zhao Yu looked at everyone's eager eyes, and then said lightly: "Now that the North Zhili is a disaster, you also know it.
Since you are willing to contribute to the country, I will only say two ......"
"First, from today onwards, the price of rice in the grain bank will be restored to before the first snow, so as to help the suffering of the people and relieve the worries of His Majesty......"
After Zhao Yu finished saying the first one, he looked up at the giants.
These guys all had a look of pain on their faces.
Everyone knows that grain and rice at this time are more valuable than gold, and merchants seek profits, so if they don't make money at this time, when will they stay?
But in the same way, the emperor's plaque is not something that can be bought with much money, and after this village, there is no such shop!
"Second, you are all solid families, now that the catastrophe has not passed, hundreds of thousands of victims are waiting to be fed, can you be generous and share the worries of the king?"
After Zhao Yu finished speaking, after filling a cup of tea again, he raised his head and looked around at the rich businessmen present, and suddenly said on a whim: "After the envoy of this town finishes speaking, who is in favor and who is against?" ”
"I'm against it!!"
Just when all the rich businessmen were still weighing the pros and cons, Yongqingbo, who was holding the silver on the side, stood up.
Only then did he understand that this dog thing was fake to give him an apology, and it was true that he had to take out the silver in his pocket!
The giant businessmen who originally planned to loosen their mouths saw King Yu's father-in-law jump out to make the first bird, and they were naturally happy to watch the changes!
