Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Hibiscus Poetry Club

The Liang family is not a top merchant in Jiangling City, even in the cloth industry, it can only be regarded as the middle and upper class.

But it was such a businessman who could cause the Miao family, the largest cloth merchant at that time, to be ruined in Dangyang County!

The leopard in the tube is enough to show that there is a dragon and a crouching tiger hidden in the city of Jiangling, and there are many people with hands and eyes to the sky.

As the Liang family, which is also somewhat famous in Jiangling City, there have been several children of the family who study and become petty officials, but these children who study are all cloth merchants in the Liang family, and they appeared after they were born.

The Liang family's business can be done, relying on the Chang family where the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Chang Wenge is located.

It is rumored that the old lady of the Liang family was a slave of the Chang family before, because he was diligent, shrewd, and quite talented in business, so he released his own door and became a cloth merchant.

This is the Great Yan Kingdom and its common situation, most of the princes of the court and the central government are proud of the merchants' families, but they all claim to be cultivators and heirlooms, and the kind of pickled things that are doing business are impossible to do anyway!

In fact, these local clans have been in business for a long time, and they are involved in business affairs in private, but most of them will use the subordinates of the family as a façade, and they will sit back and enjoy the results.

There are even more real wealthy families who occupy countless fertile land, mountains and forests, and minerals, and they have long formed a trend of not falling, and there are several caravans at home, but no one dares to accuse.

Businesses like the Liang family, which are presided over by servants, are mostly floating wealth that does not involve the foundation, and the really important transactions, just like Hengtong Firm, are held in the palm of the hand.

From this point of view, what the Liang family did in Dangyang County is very likely to be on their own, and the Chang family, as a backer, should not know about it.

But even so, if you want to deal with the Liang family and recover the blood debt for Miao Xiaoyu and Liuxiao, you will eventually face the Chang family.

In any case, it is difficult for Zhao Hengyi to defeat such a behemoth at the moment, but he is just secretly collecting some information from his daughter-in-law first.

With the bandits of Cliff Mountain being exterminated, Master Huang is nowhere to be found, and it is difficult for the Liang family's hand to reach Dangyang County, and Zhao Hengyi has time to slowly figure it out to the Liang family.

Moreover, the Liang family itself obviously knows Miao Xiaoyu's current situation, and also knows what kind of relationship Zhao Hengyi has with the business name established by Song San.

After all, the Mighty Marquis Mansion is not in Jiangling City, and a small Dangyang Bo can't be rampant in a city like Jiangling.

However, Song San was thoughtful and understood that Zhao Hengyi and his uncle were really brothers and sisters, and the people he stayed in Jiangling City had been secretly paying attention to the Liang family.

Although they couldn't find any big feet of the Liang family, Song San's people accidentally found Huang Xin and Master Huang's personal servant!

The cautious Master Huang did not flee to Jiangling City, and the personal servant was after Master Huang disappeared, he had no way to live in Dangyang County, and went to Jiangling City to seek refuge with relatives and friends.

After Song San's people questioned the little guy, they only determined that the thieves in Cliff Mountain intended to embarrass Elm Bay, and it was indeed the people of the Liang family who spent money in front of Master Huang to instruct them.

But this transaction belongs to Huang Xin and Master Huang's extra money, and the Liang family and Master Huang are on the line, also because they hurt the Miao family a few years ago.

The owner behind Master Huang is still a mystery.

Zhao Hengyi had an intuition, and he always felt that the owner behind Master Huang was the same group of people who gathered the rout of the border army to support the dragon who drilled the mountain.

If this is the case, I have broken the other party's layout twice in a row, once the truth is revealed, I am afraid it will be a situation that will not end!

However, it is useless to worry about these things, as soon as possible development and rapid improvement are the only things that Zhao Hengyi can and should do at the moment!

Once Zhao Hengyi takes the iron bucket operated by Dangyang County, when the time comes, the king of heaven will come, and he is not afraid!

What's more, the mastermind behind everything behind the scenes is not untraceable.

Master Huang has been making waves in Dangyang County for so long, it is impossible not to leave a trace of it, and the Zhou family, who is like the rich man of the land, is also one of the people in the know.

Zhao Hengyi did not investigate these clues, it was nothing more than that he himself had not been exposed now, and he was unwilling to startle the snake.

However, playing in Jiangling City for a few days made Zhao Hengyi discover a somewhat unacceptable reality: the Great Yan Kingdom is very rich!

Yes, this border army has been defeated again and again, and the imperial court needs to pay tribute to the barbarians every year, and the vast majority of the people are very rich in the Great Yan Kingdom!

When he first came to this conclusion, Zhao Hengyi himself was taken aback.

The facts are presented in front of him, and the conclusion is also his own observation, so Zhao Hengyi can't believe it.

Gangneung Mansion is not the richest capital city in Dayan Kingdom, but here, you can easily buy treasures from the north and south, you can taste the delicacies of various places at will, you can walk through the streets with fresh clothes and angry horses, and you can spend a lot of money for the Bojia people to smile......

It is said that those real big cities, those real rich places, have a rich scene far beyond Gangneung City!

Moreover, the daily caravans in Gangneung City are enough to reflect that the economic activities of Dayan are very prosperous, if the GDP can be counted like later generations, then the data presented is definitely a prosperous scene of the country and the people!

But Zhao Hengyi clearly knows what kind of life ordinary people live, and those beggars who were driven out of the city by Lord Fu Yin will eventually starve to death in the wilderness......

Where did all the money go?

This problem is not complicated, anyway, it has not entered the pockets of the people, nor has it entered the pockets of the imperial court, after all, the finances of the Great Yan Kingdom have been in an emergency year after year, and the taxes are higher than the sky!

Seeing the deep malice hidden behind this ukiyo-e, Zhao Hengyi suddenly lost the mood to play, and stayed at the inn with peace of mind, waiting for Miao Xiaoyu and his sisters to have fun in the county lord's mansion, and then returned to Elm Bay together.

Zhao Hengyi didn't expect that he wanted to stay in the inn and hide quietly, but someone specially came to the door and sent an invitation.

It is said that a cultural meeting was held in the Furong Garden on the outskirts of the city, and Zhao Gongzi was specially invited to participate in Yunyun.

Zhao Hengyi was confused for a while, he was a rich man from the countryside, and he was not a scholar, why would someone invite him to participate in the literary meeting?

After a little thought, I realized that it must be the two lines of poetry written on the Jiuhua Yulu porcelain vase, which made others misunderstand.

Zhao Hengyi had the intention not to go, and the shopkeeper Liu of Hengtong Trading only came to invite him.

"Lord Fu Yin loves poetry, so those of us who are in business gather a garden from time to time and invite talents from all walks of life to show their poetry and have fun.

However, the scenery of Hibiscus Garden is quite beautiful, and Zhao Dongjia might as well go to join in the fun, and it is good to know a few more characters on the stage.

By the way, the county lord of my family will also take Mrs. Zhao and several younger sisters to play in the Furong Garden on a painting boat that day, and they will be able to meet them at that time! ”

Shopkeeper Liu, you have said so much, the last sentence is the key, right?
