Chapter 9 The Salt Price Incident

Wang Zhong was even more angry when he saw this, and he was about to pull Wang Tiande, but he was just about to make a move but was stopped by Wang Gan, Wang Gan did not speak but made a look, and Wang Zhong subconsciously looked around.

I don't know when the people of the palace have all gathered, standing together in twos and threes, as if they were doing something and suddenly gathered, each holding all kinds of tools in their hands.

Wang Zhong only glanced at it and involuntarily stepped back, a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He didn't know why he did what he did just now, but he felt in his heart that since things had come to this point, he should naturally step forward and question Wang Tiande, why things should have been like this.

Fortunately, Wang Gan stopped himself, otherwise he didn't know what the consequences would be, and there was a cold sweat on his back when he thought of this.

After the Wang brothers' move, the two began to be silent, and secretly looked at Wang Tiande with their eyes, seeing that he was still drinking tea slowly, and their hearts suddenly felt a lot easier.

The mood of the villagers calmed down again, this time it was much faster than the last time, everyone began to sit on the ground again, and this time it was much quieter than the last time, no one even talked about anything privately, and the whole palace fell into silence.

Except for Wang Tiande's gaga mouth, this voice is so clear that everyone can hear it clearly, and even many people began to dare not breathe loudly after hearing this voice.

Wang Tiande put down the teacup again, and the teacup and the table collided with a crisp sound, which was not very loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear it very really.

Wang Tiande stood up and glanced at the villagers in front of him from left to right, each of them lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Wang Tiande, and someone in the middle accidentally met Wang Tiande's eyes and immediately lowered their heads.

When they saw the Wang brothers, the two were also looking at him, their faces were full of smiles, and they didn't have the domineering appearance just now, and when Wang Tiande looked at them and wanted to take a closer look, both of them couldn't help but bow their heads.

Like most of the villagers, Wang Tiande saw uneasiness in their eyes. There was a trace of guilt in his heart, this was the guilt that came and went faster, and Wang Tiande didn't notice it at all.

After glancing at it, Wang Tiande cleared his throat again: "As I just said, since the price of salt has risen in a short period of time, it will not be reduced again, it is useless for you to say how much, after all, my lord Wang is the only salt merchant within a radius of 100 miles, of course, if you think that salt is very expensive, you can buy it elsewhere, I will definitely not force it to buy and sell." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Tiande glanced at the Wang brothers, the two were talking about something in a whisper, and saw that Wang Tiande saw that they were busy and smiling, and nodded slightly. Wang Tiande saw that they didn't mean to interject, and a trace of disdain rose in his heart again.

He continued: "Of course, after all, we are all people who have lived in the same village for decades, Master Wang, I will definitely not be so decisive in doing things, from now on everyone will go home and write an application, or explain your living situation, or make me happy, so that the first hundred will buy salt at the original price." ”

Wang Tiande said it so lightly, but the weight of the words was so heavy, many villagers began to rush outside the house after hearing it. Of course, there were still some people who didn't leave, and most of them didn't understand what Wang Tiande meant by this.

The Wang brothers didn't leave, but their minds were different at the moment, Wang Zhong was going to leave, but there were still many people in the palace at the moment, and he would be very faceless if he left now.

Wang Gan didn't think about leaving, he felt that after the villagers left, he would naturally say something good to Wang Tiande, which would naturally be beneficial, although the money was not very much, but it was still necessary to save it after all.

The two of them had their own thoughts, and they both waited for the villagers here to finish, and when they saw that the remaining villagers still had no intention of moving, they began to get anxious. The villagers didn't understand the thoughts of the two of them at all, and they didn't understand why the big guy suddenly left in a hurry, and when the bookkeeper repeated Wang Tiande's words again, they dispersed in a hurry.

After everyone left, the Wang brothers were stopped by Wang Tiande, Wang Zhong wanted to wait for the villagers to leave as soon as they were gone, but when he was about to leave, he was stopped by Wang Tiande, and his heart suddenly became uneasy, he was afraid that Wang Tiande would settle accounts with him.

Although the villagers' disturbance had little to do with him at first, after all, it was he who instigated everyone's emotions in the middle, and even if this matter was a whim for him, he was still nervous at the moment.

Before Wang Tiande could speak, he hurriedly bowed and said: "Master Wang's forgiveness, the little one didn't do it on purpose, it was just that he was used by those villagers at that time, so he couldn't help but question Lord Wang's decision, the little one really deserves to die." ”

As he spoke, he began to slap his face, he didn't really use his strength, but his appearance was very funny, Wang Ming couldn't help laughing.

When Wang Ming saw that the villagers were gone, he walked out from behind, and just saw Wang Zhong slapping himself, which was really funny, so he laughed out loud. Wang Ming felt that what his father had done just now was too powerful, he didn't say much, let alone coercion and temptation, and those villagers obediently complied, and the important thing was that the price of salt had doubled, so he admired his father very much.

He said loudly: "Father, you are so powerful, just a few words have made them obedient, especially these two people" Wang Ming pointed to the Wang brothers and said. Wang Zhong was originally making amends, but when he saw Wang Ming say this, he nodded and said yes.

Wang Gan couldn't get used to seeing his brother just now, seeing him like this at the moment, his heart was even more disdainful, and he also understood that the price of salt had risen for him without a burden at all, he could walk out of the door with his head held high at the moment, but there was a subconscious thought that made him never able to take a step, in his opinion, everything that can be saved or saved is good, this is his consistent standard of life.

Although Wang Tiande didn't know the thoughts of the Wang brothers, there must be a reason why they didn't leave in a hurry, so they stopped them, and this was also to let them help him do things, Wang Tiande knew in his heart that there were many things that he couldn't do personally.

The reason why he took a fancy to the Wang brothers was because he saw that they could read and write, and they could do things with half the effort with half the effort if they had a certain amount of knowledge, and they were both business people, so all kinds of cleverness would naturally arise, and most of the businessmen were very shrewd.

Although Wang Gan was extremely disgusted with his brother, but he still had to do it when things came, and said to Wang Tiande: "I don't know what happened to Master Wang stopping the two of us." ”

Wang Tiande didn't answer his question, just smiled slightly and said, "Then what's the matter with the two of you staying." Wang Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "The villain has just offended, and I hope that Master Wang can be a large number of adults, and he will not be as knowledgeable as a boy..."

Wang Gan laughed disdainfully and said: "I just hope that Master Wang's salt price will give me a place, although the salt price is not a big deal for me, but my purpose is to be frugal in everything, this is a beautiful thing left to us by our ancestors, and we naturally have to protect it." ”

Wang Gan said so righteously, and his face also put on a natural look, and he couldn't help but think that this person was really interesting, although Wang Ming thought so in his heart, but he always felt strange when he looked at Wang Gan's appearance, but he couldn't say what was strange.

Wang Zhong is naturally very clear in his heart, his younger brother is thrifty on the surface, but fundamentally he is stingy, although the two are brothers, they also do business together.

But Wang Zhong refused to suffer a little loss, calculating and calculating all day long, Wang Zhong's heart had long been unaccustomed to him, but firstly, the two were brothers, and secondly, Wang Gan's mind was very smart, and many things were considered more thoroughly than himself, if it weren't for this, the two would have kicked it a long time ago.

Wang Zhong saw that Wang Gan wanted a quota, and he also began to bow and said: "I hope that Master Wang will also give me a quota, this is not a matter of money or not, this is a matter of face, someone in the village has it, and if I don't have it, it will be laughed at by others." ”

Wang Tiande was like asking them to help him do things, and the price of salt was naturally needless to say, but now when he saw the two of them like this, he suddenly had an idea, looked at the two and said: " The sale of salt has always been my own worry, recently I suddenly feel tired, I want to find someone to help me, this person must be smart and have a certain experience in business, only in this way can I give the business to him with peace of mind, I think you two are very good, meet the conditions, the reason why I stopped you is also for this matter, I don't know what you two think. ”

The Wang brothers naturally knew that Wang Tiande had something to do with them, and the two of them had their own ghosts, but they didn't expect it to be such an errand, both of them didn't seem to believe what they had just heard, they glanced at each other, and they both looked at Wang Tiande intently, their eyes were full of doubts and excitement.

Wang Tiande said what he had just said again, and the two of them believed it. When Wang Gan heard this, he immediately bowed and said: "I am the most suitable for this matter, I have read a lot of books since I was a child, I have been bold and careful and have been in business for many years, and I know all the things in the business, so it must be a very correct thing to hand over this matter to me..."

Before Wang Gan finished speaking, Wang Zhong interjected: "This matter is naturally handed over to me, I am suitable for all the conditions that Master Wang said, and I also have the ability to do this matter well." ”

Before Wang Tiande could speak, Wang Zhong said to Wang Gan again: "Brother, you don't have to fight with me about this matter, you still have to do your own business at home, as for this matter, there is no second person who can do it except me." ”

Wang Zhong said very proudly, as if this matter had been decided to let him do it, Wang Gan listened to Wang Zhong's words and said with disdain: " Big brother said this is not what he said, the family business was originally done by the two of us together, now what to say let me manage it alone, I don't agree with this matter, and why does the eldest brother say that this matter is only suitable for you, I think I am more suitable than you, and I think from past experience, the eldest brother seems to be unable to complete such a patient thing, big brother, you are too good to face and sloppy, I know this is still very clear.

Besides, several big mistakes we have made since we started doing business seem to have been caused by you, big brother. Wang Gan's tone was also very arrogant, and this arrogance was mixed with a little contempt.

Wang Zhong originally wanted to refute it, but firstly, what Wang Gan said was the truth, and secondly, he also knew in his heart that he was far from Wang Gan's opponent by virtue of his tongue alone.

What's worse is that he has a thousand words to say in his heart at the moment, but when it comes to his mouth, he can't say it, the more anxious he is, the more he can't say it, the more anxious he is, his face is flushed, he looks at Wang Gan angrily, and his mouth keeps repeating: "You..."

Wang Tiande looked at the two arguing very funny, he originally just said that he only needed one person for fun, but he didn't expect that his unintentional joke made the two brothers show such ugliness, so he laughed out loud.

The Wang brothers didn't know why Wang Tiande was laughing, but they all felt that it was mostly related to themselves, so they all quieted down, and stood there cautiously looking at Wang Tiande respectfully, their eyes full of uneasiness.

Wang Ming's heart also felt that these two brothers were really funny, just now they were standing together with the enemy, and now they began to expose each other for such a small favor, and there was a great tendency to share the sky, and he couldn't help but wonder why his father would leave these two people, which was really incomprehensible.
