Chapter 127: Business in business, real big business

"Tang Cheng", Zhang Liang accurately called Tang Cheng's name.

Although he had never said a word, just as Zhang Liang, who had lived in the same inn, had carefully observed him, Tang Cheng also held a teacup in his hand and watched Zhang Liang walk out of the inn behind the window many times.

To be honest, compared to Xue Dong, who was domineering in the Taiping Princess Mansion in Zhenguo, Tang Cheng admired Zhang Liang in front of him more, in his thirties and thin and tall figure. From a temperament perspective, this person is more like a young teacher in state or Taoism, rather than a big merchant with actual identity.

"It's right below," Tang Cheng bowed and changed a greeting to Zhang Liang who was greeting him.

"A native of Jinzhou, Dongdao, Shannan, is now a Jinzhou Prefecture Department official, or should he be a scholar in the Mingjing Certificate of Yunxi County. Now, Brother Tang has transformed into a merchant." Zhang Liang's exquisite Shaanxi "Mandarin" really made Tang Cheng feel a little uncomfortable. "I am really confused. Is Brother Tang an official, a scholar, or a merchant?"

Whether Zhang Liang was really curious or had other meanings, Tang Cheng left no flaw in his words, "I am an official, and the official who was sent to the Yangzhou Grand Governor's Office to report official documents by the Jinzhou Prefecture Office. Today, it is just because the family envoys and brothers are plagued by miscellaneous tasks and have no time to take care of it."

"The one who stirred up the turmoil in Yangzhou was actually an official? A person who controlled tens of millions of business and could go hand in hand with the patrol commander at night was actually an official who was not even a nine-rate official? The Jinzhou State Office is indeed amazing!" Zhang Liang smiled silently, but he did not continue on this topic, "please."

After reaching out his hand, he led Tang Cheng into the main hall. After sitting down with tea, Zhang Liang asked directly: "What's the matter with Brother Tang here?"

"For Brother Zhang's trip to Yangzhou."

"Okay, please feel free." Everyone knows the details of both sides. There is really no need to sway and test. Zhang Liang smiled and put down the teacup in his hand and went straight to the point, "What can Brother Tang give and what can you want?"

"The shipping rights of Shannan West Road tung oil to sea merchants. In addition, the final pricing of supplying sea tung oil this year, please also ask Brother Zhang to participate in it." Seeing Zhang Liang sitting opposite him, his eyes suddenly shrank after hearing this, Tang Cheng smiled slightly and picked up the teacup in front of him.

The imperial court's military supplies were not counted. There were only three large pieces of tung oil that could supply to the public, including the east and west of Shannan, and some scattered tung oil merchants in various places. The output of these three pieces was basically 3131. Although Tang Cheng had only one story at this time, what he really gave was one-third of the tung oil business.

This is a business involving millions of dollars in profits, millions of dollars! Even though Zhang Liang had seen the world, there was no need to do anything like this. When he was in front of him, he could not help but feel shocked.

While chatting and laughing, you can give up millions of profits and part of your pricing power, and your expressions and eyebrows are not moved at all. This is a work that a nineteen-year-old young man can perform? Although he has been observing and analyzing Tang Cheng for a long time, Zhang Liang now realized how pale and outrageous the analysis he had made before was!

Once, no, he thought that this shop would be very difficult just now. After all, Tang Cheng grew up in the countryside since he was a child. When he first recovered from a serious illness last year, his family even fell into a situation where he could not even have enough food. Even now, Tang Cheng only lives in the most ordinary house with a monthly salary of four or two, and his new house is small, and he doesn't even have a decent back garden.

Such a young man who is too hard-working should be stingy when facing mountain wealth and regards money as his life. This is the analysis Zhang Liang made for Tang Cheng in advance, and he is very confident that this analysis should not be wrong. So he made a lot of preparations for today's meeting, such as explaining this young man from a remote prefecture and county. What kind of existence is the Anguo Prime Minister's Mansion.

But even this young man, Tang Cheng, who spent 8.5 cents last year, opened his mouth and gave millions of profits without changing his expression! Or for Zhang Liang, the greater impact is not the gains of these millions of dollars, but the sharp contrast between Tang Cheng's actual performance and his estimates, and the strong psychological impact brought by this contrast.

Millions of money were chatting and laughing, and people were waving people. Zhang Liang had seen many such people, and had seen many of them. But Zhang Liang had seen those who could do such actions without exception, either wealth or honor. And they were also great wealth and honor. These four words obviously had nothing to do with Tang Cheng in front of him.

As for the homework Zhang Liang had prepared before... in front of Tang Cheng's performance, it became a joke.

"Is this what the patrol envoy Zheng mean?"

"Oh! Brother Zhang thinks so, why don't he submit to the patrol department? In Yangzhou, he made this decision, and the only one who can make this decision is Wu Yujun." At this point, Tang Cheng, who spoke in a deep voice, smiled slightly, "If Brother Zhang makes even the partner wrong, wouldn't it be a joke to talk about business again?"

Wu Yujun? Who doesn’t know that Wu Yujun is just a cover in Yangzhou today?

Zhang Liangshi didn't expect that in front of Tang Cheng, who had never taken it seriously before, he became a joke, and it was another joke after it.

If you want your brother and master to know, you will become a bigger joke!

One is a man in the Anguo Prime Minister's Mansion who has been in the martial arts world for many years, and the other is a minor official from a remote Jinzhou. However, after the two met, Zhang Liang, who had an absolute advantage in his identity, made mistakes repeatedly. As his continuous misjudgment, Tang Cheng, who was not really valued, was becoming more and more clear.

Zhang Liang was not a fool who was sent here to take charge of the matter. Not only was he not stupid, but he was also very smart. He quickly realized the root of his consecutive misjudgments - his mentality, and quickly made adjustments, "I already know what I gave, so what do you want?"

Tang Cheng felt Zhang Liang's adjustment, and the result of the adjustment was respect, and this respect was not reflected in language. He respected equally in his eyes and every detail of body language.

"I want friendship", as expected. Zhang Liang's eyes changed again. Tang Cheng, who was smiling slightly, looked at Zhang Liang's gaze and said word by word: "The friendship between the three young masters of the Prime Minister Anguo's Mansion."

Today's meeting was completely beyond Zhang Liang's expectations. He gave too much and wanted too strange things. This was something he had never expected in advance, which meant that he could only passively deal with it with Tang Cheng's rhythm.

After being silent for a long time and completely changing into another vision, Zhang Liang also observed Tang Cheng carefully for a long time. "Although my prince is simple by nature and doesn't like to walk around the imperial city, the Ministry of Personnel will always listen as long as he says something. With the demeanor of Brother Tang when he is acting, he is really aggrieved, right?"

"The prime minister is a tall and noble person, and he really dares not climb up. As for his fame and fortune, I am born to be useful. I will go to Chang'an to take it in the future."

"What a man is born with my talent and will be useful!" Zhang Liang's eyes lit up, "Young brother is so proud! But I'm afraid I don't know that my third son is a concubine, and the eldest son of this mansion is Li Chengqi."

"I was born with my talents and I will be useful! I would like to ask Brother Zhang to repost this in this sentence when he returns to Beijing the next day." At this point, Tang Cheng put down the teacup and stood up, "I have to say it clearly, but this business can't be done. Brother Zhang made a decision."

"Since the most feared thing about business is to make a banknote, is Brother Tang not afraid of losing money?"

Tang Cheng didn't say anything, but just smiled with great confidence.

"Okay, it's a great pleasure for you to meet a young brother in Yangzhou." After suddenly standing up, Zhang Liang laughed, Fang Jiyan said: "It's just that the price offered by Young Brother Tang is easy to get along with the prince's house. As for the third son... it's still a little short."

After hearing Zhang Liang say this, Tang Cheng let out a sigh of relief in his heart.

For him, the business in this business shop is also the real big business finally started to negotiate.

The two people standing sat down again. Tang Cheng reached out to hold the tea cup and filled Zhang Liang with tea, "What's the difference? Brother Zhang said bluntly."

From the arrogance when he was named, to the arrogance just now, to the confident and arrogant "I was born to be useful", until now, the gentle and gentle look. Zhang Liang's eyes changed with Tang Cheng's changes. "What's wrong, my young brother doesn't know?"

Then I started to pass the exam? After hearing this, Tang Cheng put down the tea cup and did not ask again. He sorted out the clues carefully. When he recalled what he saw at the door, Tang Cheng suddenly realized, "Durah? Hu people and sea merchants?"

When Zhang Liang heard this, he stroked his palm and praised him.

Yes, Tang Cheng sighed in his heart that his vision was still a little smaller after all, so he created the Kaiyuan prosperous place Li Sanlang to show that he was too young. How could he teach people how to fish? What Li Longji really wanted was not only the millions of "fish" this year, but also the fisherman who produced fish.

Although it sounds like a few million yuan, it is nothing for a prince and grandson like him, especially a prince who is ambitious. Only by catching a maritime merchant can you eat fish every year.

No wonder Zhang Liang has been in Yangzhou for so long and has not been moved. Tang Chengyuan still thought that he was pride of his identity, but now he was wrong. He was just waiting and waiting. He was just waiting and waiting for the result of the battle between the prince and Wu Sansi, and waited for the timely plug in the mobile phone. If there was no previous mutiny, I was afraid that he might not have even sent these millions of coins to Li Longji.

After all, with his current status as the third son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he is not enough to compete with Wu Sansi or Li Chongjun. He offended these two people for millions of dollars of money. Li Longji, a young man, would definitely not do it.

I underestimated it, but I still underestimated the heroes of history!

"Brother Zhang has been living here for more than a month. I guess Rah should have been in his pocket?"

"If he has already been in his pocket, why should I say so much nonsense to my young brother?" Zhang Liang sighed: "Although Princess Taiping is a woman, her ambition is still better than that of a beloved. She has been favored by the late emperor and the late queen since she was a child. After decades of operation, she has a high reputation and a potential force of Empress Wei. In comparison, my prince's personality is really too simple. As for the third son..." Zhang Liang shook his head with a wry smile.

When it comes to emperors of the Tang Dynasty, the most interesting thing is that they are two families, and they are two families as father and son. The life trajectories chosen by the three most important families in these two families are almost exactly the same. The emperor of this dynasty is like his father, that is, Emperor Gaozong of the First Dynasty, was a good person, but not a strong good emperor; Empress Wei of this dynasty, controlled the emperor like her mother-in-law, and is now developing the idea of ​​imitating the old path of her mother-in-law; even Princess Anle, the most favored by this dynasty, imitated her aunt. Princess Taiping, the most favored by the previous dynasty, had the idea of ​​becoming a "Crown Princess".

Compared with Princess Taiping, who has a deep political strategy and has been consciously managing for many years, at least the prime minister, who is simple in politics, is indeed much worse, and naturally his power is much worse. As for Li Longji, the third prince of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he can't even mention it now.

The original backer of the maritime merchants was the prince. Now that the prince has fallen, these people are looking for the strongest side. Compared with Princess Taiping of Zhenguo and Prime Minister Anguo, these merchants who think they are smart will inevitably choose to follow the red rather than the black ones.

These are all the meanings in Zhang Liang's words. Tang Cheng understood it at one point, and he didn't need to explain too much, but he couldn't talk about this topic in depth. Therefore, he only said to him: "It's not easy to ascend to the position of Dabao as a woman after the queen."

"Tang Cheng, you really have never met the third young master?" Zhang Liang looked at Tang Cheng in surprise, "How come this is almost exactly the same as what the third young master said that day."

Upon hearing this, Tang Cheng could only smile, but in Zhang Liang's eyes, he became a little more mysterious.

Zhang Liang shook his head. It’s useless to think about things that are too far away now. Let’s solve the problem in front of you first. “Now, Brother Tang, do you know what’s missing?”

"How is Xue Dong?"

"Sure! But when he saw His Highness the Princess, he wanted to call him Auntie."

Tang Cheng nodded. Princess Taiping's first son-in-law, perhaps the only man she has truly given her true love, is Xue Shao. Xue Dong's "aunt" obviously comes from this.

Zhang Liang offered the price, and Tang Cheng should have found a way to deliver the goods. He understood everything and there was no need to keep it anymore. He then stood up and said goodbye.

When he sent Tang Cheng to the door, Zhang Liang smiled and added: "My prime minister and His Highness the Princess have a deep affection. As for the third son, he admired his aunt very much, and I understand what I said about Young Brother Tang."

"Of course", Tang Cheng smiled and bowed: "Although he is low in his identities, he is not less respectful to His Royal Highness than Brother Zhang."

While looking at each other, Zhang Liang smiled and said, "It's good that this is the best. When the young brother succeeds, I will have a drink to congratulate you. If the young brother comes to Chang'an in the future, he will hold another banquet in the plum garden of the Prince's Mansion."

"I've done this business in a fucking way." Tang Cheng laughed and turned around.

After coming out of Zhang Liang, Tang Cheng rode his horse to Zheng Mansion in Shugang. At this time, the sky was about to dark. Zheng Lingyi, who was in the scattered yamen, was writing something in the study. After hearing the news that Tang Cheng had arrived, he immediately stood up to greet him.

"Did you beat Qingxing?" Tang Cheng asked in a low voice as he looked at Qingxing who was bumping while walking.

"It's good to dare to plot against your master. It's good if you don't sell this slut." Zheng Lingyi led Tang Cheng to the flower hall and asked with a smile: "How about it? I'm so busy today, right? You didn't sleep all night last night, but have you had a good rest?"

"The merchant designated by the Maritime Bureau is Wu Yujun, why am I busy?" Tang Cheng's words made Zheng Lingyi laugh. After she laughed, Tang Cheng got to the point: "There are two things to do. The first is to ask what the palace means to the maritime merchants?"

Zheng Lingyi looked at Tang Cheng in confusion when he heard this.

"The prince has fallen..." Zheng Lingyi knew it all, "The maritime merchants are under the jurisdiction of the Maritime Warehouse. As long as this remains unchanged, they can still turn to heaven? The empress has many places to borrow the prime minister and princess, so we cannot hold all the benefits in our own hands. We must not let go of what should be grasped, and we must also put out what should be put out quickly."

Tang Cheng's eyes stayed on Zheng Lingyi for a while before continuing: "The second thing that comes here is Xue Dong, Lingyi, I need all the information about him in your hands."

Zheng Lingyi stopped walking, "Acheng, you understand."

"What do you understand?".

"I understand why I handed over this business to you, what is a real big business!" The sky is about to be dark and not dark. In a hazy background, Zheng Lingyi, who is as beautiful as a flower, smiled brightly, and it is so bright that it is incomparable...
