The head of the two great families in the world has an identical identity, and with the respective backers behind the two, this dignitary has to be three points heavier.
Both of them are people who have been in high positions for a long time, and their concentration and city government have almost been integrated into their bones, and they have calm when there is a big event, so the two of them will not be like those fledgling hairy boys, no matter what they have to do at the first time, but they will choose to sink and sink until everything is ready, and then make a thunderous blow and fight the country.
Today, Xie Suqing wore a blue robe, and Ye Daoqi wore a blue robe, both of them removed all kinds of ornaments on their bodies, and they were no longer so extravagant, but they really had to take a closer look, the two of them who had been pampered for most of their lives couldn't hide the eyes of people with hearts, especially the calm and calm atmosphere on their bodies, which was by no means something that ordinary scholars or even officials could have.
The two of them barely paid a private visit to Weifu this time, not to plot any earth-shattering events, purely because Ye Daoqi had lived in Wei for a long time, and this time he set foot in Jiangdu, and he wanted to experience the market on a whim, so he changed into civilian clothes with Xie Suqing and came to Jiangdu City.
There are four capitals in the world, the imperial capital, the river capital, the middle capital, and the northern capital.
Among them, the northern capital and the middle are important border towns, the place of a hundred battles, although the status is important, the city is high and the pool is deep, but it is the place where the soldiers are waiting for the battle, not to talk about the word prosperity, so some people will call the imperial capital and the river capital as the north and south two capitals, it can be said that in the prosperous market, the river is the only city in the world that can be compared with the imperial capital.
Ye Daoqi is the son of Ye Xia, the old lady of the Ye family, and Ye Xia is the younger sister of Qiu Ye, the real person in charge, so he should be called an uncle in charge of the real person, but because he followed his motherhood and became a man of the Ye family, he was renamed uncle, and his identity changed from the nephew of the real person to his nephew.
In fact, according to the rules, Ye Daoqi was not qualified to inherit the position of the head of the Ye family, but after Ye Xia took him to Dutian Peak to meet Qiu Ye, all the opposition voices in the Ye family disappeared.
The true person in charge of the sect is a heavenly figure who is beyond the mortal world, even if it is a great Ye family, he has to bow his head in front of him.
The position of the head of the Ye family was originally in charge of the real person, and he said that whoever is the head of the family is the head of the family.
Because of this, Ye Daoqi not only became a member of the Ye family, but also became the head of the Ye family.
Whether it is a nephew or a nephew, with Ye Daoqi's current identity as the head of the Ye family, he will not easily set foot in the imperial capital. If he set foot in the imperial capital, it would show that the real person in charge of the sect had something to say to His Majesty the Emperor, so he could only retreat and come to this prosperous Jiangdu, which was not inferior to the imperial capital.
Although Xie Suqing does not live in Jiangdu City, he is half a landlord, since the guests have a request, he naturally has no reason to refuse, so there is a trip to the white dragon fish suit of the two today.
In fact, it is not very accurate to say that it is a white dragon fish suit, after all, both of them are great masters of the earth immortal realm, if someone really wants to assassinate, it must also be the earth immortal realm, and the guards of the ordinary realm are not much different from those who are in front of the earth immortal masters.
In this world now, as long as he is the head of a high-ranking family, who has not been a good cultivator?
After the two of them passed through the city gate with the people who entered the city early in the morning, they first visited a few antique shops.
The so-called antiques in the antique shop, one true and nine false, deceived those businessmen who suddenly became rich and noble, but could not deceive these two family heads of the family.
There is a saying in the antique business called picking up leaks, which means buying very valuable antiques at a very cheap price, and the seller does not know.
The so-called eye-catching is to look away and buy fake objects. This also made Ye Daoqi sigh, true and false, false and real, the water in this antique business is really deep.
After visiting the antique shop, the two went to the famous Duobao Pavilion again.
The name is straightforward and tacky, but it is the leading big business name in the entire Jiangdu City, where there are all kinds of rare and exotic treasures in Tiannan, Haibei and Haibei, such as the local ice silkworm silk in the south of the Yangtze River, the deer antler old ginseng built in the northeast, the unique warm jade in the northwest grassland, the ivory and jade in the stone of Baozhu, the pure gold and various gems of the Wei Kingdom, the latest new head jewelry created by the imperial court, the cordyceps sinensis in the south of the Tiannan, and even the self-striking table clocks and pocket watches that come across the ocean, which are dazzling.
Ye Daoqi picked up a piece of authentic warm jade, held it in his palm, and asked, "Brother Xie, who is the owner of this business?"
Xie Suqing said: "It used to be under Zhang Xueyao's name, but now it should belong to Xu Beiyou's name." ā
"It turned out to be him. Ye Daoqi was stunned for a moment, smiled slightly, and put down the warm jade in his hand, "This industry is not small, if he can hold it in his hands, he is really a hero." ā
Xie Suqing took out a silver ticket from his sleeve, bought the piece of warm jade along with a gold-plated pocket watch, and said: "Qin Mumian's courtyard, Tang Shengyue's pawnshop and gambling house, plus Zhang Xueyao's business name, these are all making a living with daily gold, even those of us who have to be envious when they see it." ā
The two walked out of the Duobao Pavilion, and Ye Daoqi continued what he had just said: "Actually, these are nothing, the most eye-catching thing is the sea business, even Murong Xuanyin, who has a small half of the Houjian, did not hesitate to visit Jiangdu several times, but unfortunately he was beaten back by those women who are considered to be the elders of you and me, and finally fell into a disgraced face." ā
Xie Suqing said softly, "Whether it is the Wei State today, or the Wei State back then, no matter what, Zhang, Ye, Murong, Gongsun, and Shangguan were all the same spirit, and now the Ye and Murong families are soaring, and the Zhang, Gongsun, and Shangguan families are no longer in the past, but they always have to read a little bit of old favor, Murong Xuanyin does not remember his own background, and he broke the rules, but Brother Ye can't do things absolutely, so as not to give people a handle and tarnish his own name." ā
Ye Daoqi glanced at him and said with a light smile: "Brother Xie, this is mocking me." ā
Xie Suqing smiled: "I just want to give Brother Ye a reminder." ā
"I want to hear about it. Ye Daoqi frowned.
Xie Suqing said slowly: "Looking at today, you and I are not really big people, it is difficult to do what you want, but you can't be regarded as small people, at least there is a grace and wealth given by our ancestors." Relatively speaking, big people such as His Majesty the Emperor and Zhangjiao Zhenren are easy to do, and if they uphold the word prudence, even if they don't have great merit, they will not have a big fault. It's easy for a small person like Shengdou Xiaomin to do it, he doesn't understand the height of the sky, nor does he understand the general trend of the heart of heaven, and he chats all his life. Only you and I are the most difficult to do this role that is not small, right, you have to figure out the intentions, be cautious in words and deeds, and work diligently, and on the bottom, you have to pretend that the city government is profound, pay attention to the way of control, it seems to be extremely beautiful, but in fact, it is trembling like walking on thin ice, Brother Ye, do you say this is the reason?"
Ye Daoqi nodded with emotion: "Brother Xie's words are reasonable, and he is to the point. ā
Xie Suqing smiled and said with emotion: "After fighting in the world for a long time, I understand more and more the word moderation that the sage said, not fighting for the moment, not trying to be fast for the moment, not being strong for the moment, to put it bluntly, we don't need so many killings in our position, more often than not, we still have to leave three points of room for turning around, one point of Buddha's heart and good thoughts, and maybe I can give myself one more way out in the future." ā
Ye Daoqi was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Brother Xie wants me to open up to Xu Beiyou?"
Xie Suqing handed the piece of warm jade to Ye Daoqi's hand, and said softly: "There is this meaning, but not all, in fact, I also have a feeling, the ability of many of our families to stand tall, relying on the word moderation, not up or down, not left or right, anyone who wants to go further, even if he can win the throne, it is only the peak of one generation, after the change of dynasty, the destruction of the family is ultimately empty, take the world competition before Jiazi, how many families can please it?" The lessons of the Zhang family and the Gongsun family are not far away, and we cannot but take note of it. ā
Ye Daoqi gently rubbed the warm jade in his hand, thoughtful.
