Chapter Seventy-Three: Strange Deals, Fame and Fame
"Where are the people, why don't you go to our local people to buy salt?" Yu Feng frowned and asked, things are very abnormal, he doesn't try to make money in business, and he doesn't buy cheap goods for his own use, so there must be some purpose behind it.
"It's the people of Ye County, over there in Ye County, we have always handed it over to the Zhou brothers to do, I think a little, do these people look at the business of the Zhou brothers?" Wu Ting replied.
"Ye County?!" Yu Feng laughed: "It's the surname Wang who buys salt!" ”
Wu Ting's face was shocked, and then he was relieved, the adults handed over such a big stall to themselves, and naturally they would put some eyes and ears around them, which was also the proper meaning, and there was nothing strange about him.
"Your Excellency knows about this!"
Yu Feng was secretly amused in his heart, this Wang family is really pervasive, no wonder Lord Zhizhou didn't dare to meddle in the affairs over there, he just asked Wu Shengnan about it, and even the yamen didn't have it, so he immediately reacted.
Five taels of silver a load, a thousand loads of salt, such a big hand, is this clearly a roundabout way to send money to yourself, sugar-coated cannonballs? Hmph, I'll eat the sugar coating, the cannonball should be thrown back, or it should be thrown back, I don't need to check it now, if I don't have a weak heart as a thief, how can I behave like this.
"Let's open the door to do business, people pay money, of course we have to sell, such a money-making thing, naturally we have to do it!"
"Little one got it!" Wu Ting nodded in agreement and was about to retreat.
"Call the Zhou brothers from Ye County to come over, I have something to ask them!" Yu Feng gave a faint order, and Wu Ting nodded, got up and left.
The adults said that they could sell it, but of course they were sold, and it was not a big amount. Wu Ting walked back to the Sihai Commercial Bank, and in the Commercial Bank, a man in his thirties who looked like a steward was waiting there, with a little anxious look on his face, and when he saw Wu Ting walking in, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Shopkeeper Wu, what is our deal, and now the family is in a hurry to use it?"
"Boss Wang, no matter how anxious you are, you don't have to rush in this day and a half, there are not so many of these more than 1,000 loads of salt in the warehouse, and you have to wait for the salt field to be transferred, it will definitely be too late today!"
"Shopkeeper Wu agreed!" Boss Wang was overjoyed, this is the other party promised to collect money, as for what salt goods to transfer, send a few people to do it, who cares about that.
"Well, if Boss Wang wants these goods next time, he doesn't have to go so far, there are also businesses in Yexian County that have a little dealings with this store!" Wu Ting said slowly, where could Boss Wang hear his vernacular, but he took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve pocket: "Shopkeeper Wu, you order a little, this is the money of the Jingshi Taiping, pay the ticket immediately!" Five thousand taels of silver! This Taiping number has a semicolon in Jining, Jinan. ”
Before you see the goods, you will pay for the goods directly? Wu Ting's heart was strange, but when he thought about his current official status, he was also relieved, with the adult's gold signboard, of course these people would not be afraid of the Four Seas Commercial Bank defaulting on their debts, but no matter how they were not afraid, they didn't see a grain of salt, but they just closed their mouths up and down, and the money was too neat.
"Who is behind the shopkeeper Wu, we also know a thing or two!" Another silver ticket was handed over: "When the time is right, Shopkeeper Wu will introduce you, and we also want to touch the nobility of the person behind you!" ”
I see, Wu Ting suddenly realized in his heart, this is something that requires us adults, no wonder this silver is not like money. He put the silver ticket in his pocket, "I can only pass a word on my behalf, if I can't see you, it depends on the adult's own meaning!" ”
"That's, that's!" Boss Wang nodded again and again, "Tomorrow, I will arrange someone to pick up the goods, and all this will be the shopkeeper of Lao Wu!" ”
Wu Ting watched Boss Wang and his servants walk out of the door of the firm, and secretly shook his head in his heart, this is good to be an official, others just to see each other, they have made such a big capital, and they can really toss it, how long has it been to inspect, and in a blink of an eye, a garrison general has come back, according to this trend, I am afraid that there will be a high promotion, I will go back in a few days, and I have to tell my sister well, now catch the adult, it is too late to ask for a name, and wait until the adult soars into the sky, I'm afraid that I will regret it when the time comes.
As soon as he stepped out of the door of the firm, Boss Wang's face sank, and the few servants behind him were even more silent, and they didn't even dare to take a breath of the atmosphere. When they entered the inn where they stayed, closed the door, and several servants glanced at each other and knelt in front of Boss Wang.
"Young master, it's all small ones who don't do their job well, please punish the young master!"
"Punishment, how to punishment?" Boss Wang's face was hideous, "Five thousand taels of silver, it's not enough to sell your skins and bones!" ”
He walked around the room a few times, "Fortunately, I'm in Lingshan, otherwise, I don't know how much trouble it will cause for our Wang family, Sanbiao, you say, you have been staring at the Zhizhou Yamen, how could you let that slut go to the inspection department and meet with that Yu Feng?" ”
"Young master, we have been staring at the Zhizhou Yamen for the past few days, just waiting for the slut to throw himself into the net, but I didn't expect the Lord Zhizhou not to accept her form, but sent a few messengers to escort him to the inspection Yamen, the little ones really have nowhere to start, and when they arrived at the inspection Yamen, although those poor people left, there were soldiers guarding the adults there, and there were many idlers, under the eyes of everyone, they couldn't move, this is not ......"
"A bunch of rubbish!" The young master Wang kicked the talking man named Sanbiao to the ground, "I can't do a little thing, this thing is done, go back to the eldest brother to practice, the Wang family doesn't have a nest!" ”
The man got up from the ground and wiped the blood from his mouth, but he didn't dare to speak.
"You two, go home immediately, send a letter to my father and eldest brother, and ask my father and my mother to go to Jinan for a while, and my eldest brother should not nest in the Zhuangzi, go out for a walk, don't let people be blocked in the Zhuangzi, and the remaining few, accompany me here to wait for news!" By the way, when I came back, I asked my eldest brother to send me some silver, this bit of silver, I'm afraid I can't feed this dog official! ”

"Brother, you said that this shopkeeper Wu brought a letter, saying that Mr. Yu is looking for us, what is the matter?"
In a village outside the city of Ye County, a big man with a dark face said to a big man with a similar face next to him. Both of them look like they are doing their part, who knows, this is the well-known Zhou family brothers in Ye County.
This week's brothers, originally a broken family, also practiced boxing and kicking for a few days, and then made a mistake, no silver is to dredge the joints, simply fell into the grass. Later, he was picked up, and he slowly got a little wealth, and he wiped out the things of the year in the yamen, and he became a good citizen gentry in the official dossier.
These two brothers are quite righteous, and they also have dozens of people under them, and gradually they have made a name for themselves in this Ye County. Later, when Yu Feng divided the sphere of influence, the two also participated, and with their reputation and the strength of their subordinates, they also won the private salt trade in the Yexian area. With such a way, the business started to be much stronger than when the two brothers did it themselves, and the two gradually became prosperous.
For Yu Feng, the two of them are still grateful, after all, they have received too many benefits from Yu Feng's hands, but they were directly named by Yu Feng to see him, this is the first time, why don't they make the two brothers a little worried.
Yu Feng is in Ye County, and he also stationed a salt ding team, detecting and setting up cards on the main road, on weekdays, the relationship between the Zhou brothers and this team of salt Ding is very good, what do the salt Ding need, they don't even need to speak, this Zhou family brothers are all in order. However, today's news did not come from the hands of Captain Yanding, but from the shopkeeper Wu of the Four Seas Commercial Bank himself, which made them a little guessful.
Who is Yu Feng now, if it is said that Yu Feng, who had thousands of armed salt dings in his hands at the beginning, is a hard stubble that they dare not touch, then Yu Feng, who is now the garrison of Lingshan, is the existence they look up to. What is the garrison, that is the official body, a down-to-earth official of the imperial court, and the glory of the ancestors! The official position of these five grades may not be anything in the officialdom, but in the eyes of these green forest figures, it is really a dazzling status.
In recent years, the book "Water Margin" has been widely known among the people, killing people and setting fires and other recruitment, even if Song Jiang is recruited in time, what kind of official position is given by the imperial court, is it still not clear to everyone, this is still the case of the world's famous thief leader, and how those ordinary green forest characters should be can be imagined. To put it mildly, even if Yu Feng gives them a small flag official body, they are afraid that a person of such a background will break their heads. Once they washed away the thief name on their heads and became a serious court official, that was what they dreamed of.
It's no wonder that they think about it in this direction, Yu Feng has become a garrison and has expanded the army vigorously, and they also know it, but they don't dare to think like this. Although this court has a Zhao'an saying, but if you want to eat food and be a soldier, now they are all selected from good families, when Yu Feng recruits people, if you don't have a family, you have to find a Chinese person as a guarantor, just by virtue of this, Yu Feng ensures the purity of the composition of his army, but also cuts off the way for them to go up.
However, now that Yu Feng wants to see them, their minds are suddenly alive, and the share of private salt everywhere is divided, even if there are new people to join, it will not affect their original status, Lord Yu is looking for them, most of them are not for this, then, it is an important person in Lord Yu's army, and he wants to promote the two of us?
The two of them were not at ease, and invited the captain of the salt ding squad stationed in the local area to eat and drink together, and learned that this time the army was expanded, and many of Yu Feng's salt and ding were added to the army, and they became small flags, general flags, hearing this, their hearts were even hotter, and they also saw those salt dings, but they were some honest soldiers who had not seen much on the market, this small banner and general banner, they all did it, didn't they have the ability to do it?
The two brothers were so excited that they didn't sleep all night, and as soon as the day dawned, they prepared their horses to rush towards Lingshan.
