Chapter 30: Invitations and Soaps
The county lord and the county horse have finally completed the house!
This is the latest blockbuster news in Beiting City.
After being knighted in the imperial court, the county horse who was a son-in-law was finally truly accepted by the county lord's mansion.
Subsequently, the power in the hands of the county horse went to a higher level, and the county lord gave Zhang Peng the command of two entire battalions with a wave of his hand, although it was only an auxiliary battalion, but it sounded magnificently compared to the previous Agricultural Research Institute and the Marching Commerce and Trade Division.
Nowadays, the people in Beiting City no longer dare to mention the word son-in-law, and they have changed their names to "Junma Duwei" or "Zhang Xianzi".
The so-called new official took office three fires, and Zhang Junma, who had a new identity, made a message early in the morning, and five days later held a banquet in the largest restaurant in Beiting City, "Shuiyunlou", and held an "investment conference", inviting the rich businessmen and dignitaries of the city to the banquet and discuss the state of the country.
This news has stirred up a thousand waves in the entire Beiting City.
When did a lowly businessman be qualified to discuss state affairs? Since the founding of the Great Xia Kingdom, I have never heard of such an unthinkable thing.
In the courtyard of the county lord's mansion, Li Xiao held the golden invitation in his hand, with a serious expression, sitting upright, and he didn't seem interested in the investment conference.
Gundam, who came to deliver the invitation, saw him like this, and he began to roll his eyes in his heart: Lord Yu, you are very good at pretending!
There is a reason why Li Xiao pretends to be serious, after all, Feng Yuxi is sitting on the side, holding his long gray beard, closing his eyes and thinking.
"Master Feng, look at this investment conference, is it better for this king to go or not to go?" Li Xiao really couldn't hold back, he really wanted to join in the fun.
Feng Yuxi didn't answer Li Xiao's words directly, but first looked at Gundam and asked: "Young man, let me ask you, why did Junma invite Shang Jia to discuss the matter." ”
Gao Gao first saluted Feng Yuxi respectfully before replying: "Back to Lord Feng's words, the students only know that the construction of the Remnant Yang River Reservoir some time ago was jointly funded and assisted by the major businessmen in the city. ”
Gundam was cautious, he was telling the truth, but only a fraction of it.
"That's all?" Feng Yuxi asked again.
"The students are only shallow, and they may have the intention of continuing to raise money from the merchants, but the students really don't know how to attract investment and how to discuss the matter," Gouda replied in a general but flawless way.
Feng Yuxi chuckled: "I thought that the commander of the county horse had something important, even so, King Yu, whether you go or not, it doesn't hurt, the old man recently drank and injured himself, so he won't go." ”
After speaking, Feng Yuxi got up and was about to leave, without treating King Yu as a prince at all.
Li Xiao watched Feng Yuxi leave, and began to feel that this investment conference seemed to be nothing fun, and he suddenly lacked interest.
"Latis will be there too," Gundam said lightly, glancing at Li Xiao.
His Royal Highness King Yu was overjoyed and excited......
"Dear prince, early this morning, the county horse sent me an invitation to attend the investment conference in five days' time, you see," said the richly dressed old Henis, who bowed down and handed the golden invitation to a handsome young Persian.
If Zhang Peng is here, he will definitely be pleasantly surprised to ask: Do you have the sand of time in your hands, can you borrow me to cross it?
"My loyal Uncle Hennis, don't be so restrained, it's all thanks to you that I can live safely in Beiting City."
The young Persian, known as the prince, accepted the invitation with a smile, opened it, and read it laboriously for a while, and then looked at Henis with some embarrassment: "Forgive me for not learning the essence of Chinese characters, and it takes a bit of a lot of effort to read...... But, Uncle Henice, I'd like to hear your opinion, do you think you should go? ”
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, this Zhang Junma has had a few encounters with me, he is an extremely knowledgeable person, looking at him, it reminds me of the Great Elder of the year, it seems that there is nothing in the world that he doesn't know," Old Henis thought for a while before saying, "He is not close to us Hu people, but he is not as indifferent as other Great Xia people, if you describe him, I think, it is more appropriate to describe him as an extremely rational person." ”
"You have a high opinion of him, such a person generally doesn't do anything meaningless, this invitation, besides you, are there any other non-Daxia businessmen who have received this invitation?" The Prince of Persia asked.
"Yes, but only I received the invitation with the golden cover," said old Hernis, standing up a little straighter.
The Persian prince's eyes lit up, and he actually smiled, nodded and said: "This Zhang Junma is a real nobleman, I will go with you at this investment conference!" ”
"Yes, Your Royal Highness!" Old Henness looked happy......
Two days later, in the morning, in the county lord's mansion, Jian Ping and several sword-wielding maids all pinched their noses and huddled together, looking at Zhang Peng's gaze showing almost condensed into substance disgust.
On the other side, Wei Chi Changgong and Ge Shuyan and other fierce generals in the army frowned, with a bitter and bitter face, staring at Zhang Peng with big eyes, and stopped talking.
"Zhang Peng! If you dare to get within six feet of the county lord with that thing, the county lord will blow your dog's head! Xu Wanyi didn't care about any etiquette at the moment, she looked at Zhang Peng with a pale face, and her hands were clenched into fists and she was ready to beat people.
Zhang Peng looked at Xu Wanyi and the maids helplessly, with a big speechlessness written on his face, and he was holding a white solid paste in his hand, which was the fresh soap he had just made.
"I said, county lord, I have kindly developed a clean and defiled treasure for the majority of female compatriots in your Beiting, not only do you not appreciate it, but you also treat me like this? There is no heavenly reason! ”
Zhang Peng felt that he was really kind and was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs.
Because the green bricks, cement, and green salt were all listed as military supplies by the old father-in-law, Liangguo Gong, the civilian sales were strictly stuck, and the cement factory and brick factory were purchased at a price of 500,000 yuan, leaving Zhang Peng with only one percent of the shares and one percent of the product sales rights
At the same time, the salt production method was also bought out with 500,000 yuan from the Beiting Army, and Zhang Peng was only given three salt quotas every year.
If there is a daughter, there must be a father! This pair of father and daughter, one race and one domineering!
To deal with Xu Wanyi, Zhang Peng has already figured out some doorways, this woman is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside, with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, as long as everything is shown with sincerity and reason, she can also explain the truth.
But that old man is Liangguogong...... Zhang Peng will have a chill down his spine when he thinks about it, this is the iron-blooded commander who led the army to destroy the Central Plains Qi, Chu, Chen, and Liang back then, and his force value is close to the top of the four extremes, and he is at the top of the list of famous generals in the world!
It is said that last year, he dared to drag the newly enthroned emperor's collar to spray, so that the emperor could not get off the stage in front of hundreds of officials, which made the Beiting and the court such a stiff situation now.
So Zhang Peng was almost blind, and finally tossed out a little something, but he was bald overnight, and it also disrupted all the plans that Zhang Peng had made before.
In order to continue his plan to resist disasters and resist the enemy, he had no choice but to launch several new popular products for the Beiting Marching Commerce Division.
That's when he had this piece of soap in his hand.
