Chapter 705: There is nothing to do
Three thousand six hundred taels of silver are not a small amount. It is the income of an ordinary family of five for more than ten years. It was rejected without hesitation, which made Wei Zi very confused. (_ )
After several women left, Wei Zi asked the shopkeeper angrily: "These women spoke so hard, as if each family had a mountain of gold, and I don't know whose family belonged to it!"
The shopkeeper was knowledgeable and still maintained enough politeness and kindness at this time. He smiled and said, "You are really impressed by Mr. Wei. The ladies and ladies who left just now have not only gold coins at home, but also if they really want to move out, it is probably more than one."
Wei Zi was shocked and said, "The shopkeeper should be cautious in his words. Do you know that the golden mountain in front of the gate of the farmer, soldier, and merchants is enough to buy a state. Even if the Chenliuwei family is the richest man in Yanzhou, he dare not say that he has such strong financial resources!"
The shopkeeper was a kind and wealthy man. He didn't say anything to mock Wei Zi, but just lowered his voice and said, "Do you know the identity and background of those people just now?"
Wei Zi shook his head and replied, "Looking at his clothes and behavior, he is not ordinary people, but he is not as rich and luxurious as he is, just a wealthy family."
The shopkeeper then smiled without saying a word, hugged his hand and signaled Wei Zi to approach him, then raised the delivery address left by the woman just now, and said meaningfully: "Your Madam Wei carefully looked at the address on this paper, and maybe you can guess the identities of those women."
Wei Zi stretched his head and looked closely, and saw that the paper was simple and elegant and timelessly written with five words: "Zhaojiazhuang No. 1". Wei Zi was puzzled and frowned and asked the shopkeeper, "Isn't this Wohu City? Why are there still rural villages in the city?"
The shopkeeper was not bothered and patiently explained: "This Wohu City was built on the basis of Wohu Village more than ten years ago. The predecessor of Wohu Village was Zhaojiazhuang. Who was built in Zhaojiazhuang? You can't guess who was Wei, Mr. Wei?"
When Wei Zi heard this, he suddenly thought of a result that he didn't want to believe. He asked the shopkeeper in a different voice: "Does that the lady and several young women just now come from the Zhao Mansion?" When talking about Zhao's name, Wei Zi's voice was very heavy.
Seeing that Wei Zi understood his reminder, the shopkeeper nodded and smiled and said, "Yes, even I was so busy that I didn't remember that the fifth mistress of Wohu City was usually busy with the affairs of the inner government, so she lived in seclusion. Today she suddenly appeared in my small shop. The young woman shouted "Five Niang", but I didn't even react. If I hadn't read the note left by others, I would have been fucked with you today."
A little shopkeeper smiled and scolded him for being wronged, but Wei Zi didn't dare to have any temper. When he thought that he had a charming idea just now, he almost teased Zhao Xing's wife and daughter, Wei Zi felt that an invisible steel knife had already rested on his neck.
As the saying goes, the cooked duck is stubborn, and Wei Zi, who is even more depressed, complained with dissatisfaction: "The shopkeeper, since he is the wife and lady from Zhao's mansion, why are he dressed so ordinary, and he is better than shabby. As Zhao Taifu, the largest boss of the farmer, the merchants and financial stores, the wealth he has accumulated now is not billions of taels of silver, and there are always 70 to 80 million, right? Why do you make your wife and children so simple?"
After hearing Wei Zi's complaint, the shopkeeper stopped giving Wei Zi any face this time and said in a lesson: "Young Master Wei, it's not an old man. I'll tell you. Chen Liuwei's family is indeed a prominent position in Yanzhou and is considered a wealthy place. But even if there is a gold mountain in the family, it is not used to fight for wealth and wealth with others! Can you tell me why the Taifu is so popular in the hearts of the people in the north? Because he has never forgotten his background after the tenant farmer, and there are still many people in the world that have not yet solved their food and clothing. Therefore, although the fifth lady is in charge of the inner treasury of the Taifu Mansion, she spends money every year to fund the people in various places, and has never wasted the people in the mansion!"
After being scolded by a shopkeeper in this way, Wei Zi felt a little uncomfortable on his face. He hurriedly walked away with a few guards covering his face and ran back to No. 25 Yingbinyuan without looking back.
Several seemingly inconspicuous wandering people near the shop, and after Wei Zi walked away, they slowly dispersed. They gathered together and whispered: "This time, the young master of the Wei family was defeated and lost! Humph, a fool who didn't know the depth actually dared to make a fortune in front of the fifth mistress. Even the wealth of the Mi family in Donghai is not comparable to that of his Chenliuwei family, let alone the Taifu Mansion!"
The leader of several people reached out and knocked on the forehead of the person who had spoken before, scolded and said, "Don't talk nonsense here, hurry up and go to the security office to record what happened today! The Taifu Master disliked others' words that he was richest in the world. The Taifu often said that this wealth comes from the people of the world and will be used for the people of the world in the future. He just helped everyone to keep a close eye on it and did not let outsiders take it away!"
Wei Zi, who returned to the No. 25 villa, remembered what happened just now, and became more and more afraid of it. If Mi Zhen, the fifth wife of Zhao's mansion, told Zhao Xing about this after returning to the mansion, and Zhao Xing was angry and gave himself a warning, then all the errands he did for Caozhou Mu this time would be ruined.
Wei Zi came out to do business for Cao Cao this time, and it looked beautiful, but his father secretly spent a lot of money to fight for it, in order to find a good position in the Cao group and successfully take over the position of the head of the Wei family in the future. If Wei Zi returns without success this time and returns to Chenliu with empty hands, he will not only be unable to explain to Cao Cao, but he may also lose the power to compete for the head of the Wei family.
Wei Zi, who locked himself in the room, became more regretful the more he thought about it. He really wanted to slap himself a few big mouths.
Seeing that the little master was so anxious, a master who accompanied him gave Wei Zi an idea to make up for the loss. He suggested that Wei Zi prepare a generous gift immediately and go to Zhao Xing to pay homage to Zhao Xing in person. He sincerely admits his mistakes, which may win Zhao Xing's understanding and promote the formal negotiations in the future. He also reminded Wei Zi not to play tricks and tricks in the Crouching Tiger City, otherwise he would not know who to ask for advice if he was messed up in the end.
Wei Zi had no choice but to follow the advice of his master, he spent a total of 200,000 taels of silver to buy a batch of exquisite jade and gold jewelry on the "Sales Street" just now, and packed it in exquisite and luxurious gift boxes. He took people to Zhao's house to give gifts.
Today, Zhao Xing was discussing with several strategists in the mansion how to use the reasons for this trade fair to strive for the greatest benefits from the forces of the state. Among them, Cao Cao in Yanzhou, Sun Jian in Wuzhou and Liu Biao in Jingzhou were the focus of their discussion. When several people were discussing, the rumor in the mansion came to report to Zhao Xing, saying that the eldest son of the Chenliuwei family had prepared generous gifts outside the door and wanted to ask to see the Grand Tutor.
Zhao Xing picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said unexpectedly: "Hey, this Wei Zi is a wonderful person. I was just about to contact him, so he came to the door by himself and prepared a generous gift. By the way, how much is the value of the items on the gift list?"
"Reply to the Taifu, the gift list prepared by the young master of the Wei family is 200,000 taels!" The sect Chuan answered truthfully.
"Damn, what a big deal! You have nothing to do, you are either traitor or robber! Let me go back to this young master who spends money like earth!"
