Chapter 475 Li Shishi’s methods(1/2)
After listening to Xing Shu's words, Zhao Xu suddenly laughed: "So, the deal between Huang Liang and the Liao people is completed?"
"Reporting to the officials, that's exactly what happened." Xing Shu bowed and said, "Yeluju has deposited part of the Jiaozi he holds into the Bianjing bank account!"
"Other Liao people are also interested..."
Zhao Xu rubbed his hands as he listened.
What is the highest level of bribery?
Community of interests.
Now these Liao people deposit their money into a Song bank account.
So who will people like Yeluju become in the future? There is no doubt about it.
"How many Jiaozi is Yeluju willing to save?" Zhao Xu asked.
"As an official, Yeluju has saved 30,000 yuan of jiaozi..." Xing Shu replied.
"So many?" Zhao Xu was surprised.
Yeluju made a lot of money from Song and Liao trade by taking kickbacks and benefits, accumulating about 100,000 yuan.
Now he actually took out 30,000 yuan and deposited it into the Bianjing bank account. That Huang Liang is so talkative!
You know, although these Liao people make a lot of money, they also spend money quickly.
In the past two months, the price of overnight accommodation for famous prostitutes in Sangjia Wazi has increased a lot.
Many middle and low-level officials in Bianjing can hardly afford to listen to music at Goulan, and they are complaining for a while.
The main culprits are these Liao people who suddenly became rich.
They spend a lot of money in the tiled fence.
Zhao Xu heard in the palace that a wealthy businessman, in order to please the contemporary Li Shishi, spent a lot of money on a mansion in Yimenfang, Bianjing New City, as a betrothal gift.
And that mysterious wealthy businessman was naturally Yeluju from the Liao Kingdom.
All I can say is that this contemporary Master Li is indeed very powerful.
With her mouth moving and acting coquettishly, Yeluju took out 10,000 yuan and bought her a house.
Yeluju took the lead, and other Liao people followed suit.
In the city of Bianjing, people spend money like water and do not regard money as money at all.
No wonder!
It's too easy for them to make money.
Naturally, they don’t value the money they have.
In addition, what they have on hand is Jiaozi, and once they get the upper hand, it will be difficult to control them.
This should be well understood by those modern men who reward female anchors during their live broadcasts.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xu took a deep look at Xing Shu.
Because according to Zhao Xu’s understanding, it was Sangjia Wazi who Xing Shu took with him.
But the question is, is there only one Sangjia Wazi in Bianjing City?
As far as Zhao Xu knows, there are at least five or six large-scale tiles in Bianjing City.
In the old city of Bianjing alone, there are two more.
The new door tiles outside the Zhuque Gate, and the Baokang Gate tiles outside the Baokang Gate.
These two places are also places for famous prostitutes.
Back then, Liu Yong had been lingering on Baokangmen Wazi for a long time. Nowadays, Baokangmen's hooks and external publicity include "My home was the place where Liu Sanbian wrote lyrics" and "There is Liu Sanbian on the wall of my house."
This kind of rhetoric is like "authentic poems".
Nowadays, Yan Jidao, a well-known romantic talent in the world and the favorite of the girls in Bianjing City, often lies drunk in the tiles of Xinmen after returning to Beijing.
Recently, the phrase that has been sung in Bianjing City: There are only a handful of silver coins left tonight, and I am afraid that the meeting is in a dream. Legend has it that Yan Jidao and a few friends were composed when they were listening to a ditty in Wazi, Xinmen.
so……
Uncle Xinghe, after all, the defendant is eating the plaintiff!
Maybe, the owners of Sangjia Wazi's Goulan gave him a lot of benefits.
But it doesn't matter.
When you are an emperor, you often have to turn a blind eye.
Don't interfere less with ministers' affairs.
As long as they are still doing their jobs seriously, then leave them alone.
Of course, I should also understand in my heart what exactly are these ministers doing behind my back?
Just don't let them fool you.
With thoughts running through his mind, Zhao Xu became curious and asked, "How did Huang Liang convince Yeluju?"
At first, Zhao Xu estimated that it would be good if Yeluju could save three to five thousand guan.
Who would have thought that this guy would be willing to save so much?
Xing Shu said: "As far as the officials know, Huang Liang seems to have made a promise to Yeluju and others."
"Huh?" Zhao Xu asked, "What promise?"
"As soon as you need it, send someone to inform you, and you can withdraw money at Waqiao Pass within one month!" Xing Shu reported.
When Zhao Xu heard this, his eyes lit up.
This is indeed an offer that a person like Yeluju cannot refuse.
After all, although the Jiaozi in their hands is easy to carry, there is only one place like Jiaoziwu in Bianjing where they can exchange it for copper coins, gold, silver, spices, silk cloth and other precious metals or their equivalents.
Therefore, if they wanted to exchange their exchanges for copper coins or other things, they could only do so in Bianjing.
This brings about a huge problem - transportation.
It is not an easy task to transport money from Bianjing to Waqiaoguan, and the cost is also very high.
Then, a huge cost had to be paid to transport it from Waqiao Pass to Shangjing, Nanjing and other places in the Liao Kingdom.
Huang Liang promised that as long as Yeluju informed him in advance, he could withdraw the money at Waqiao Pass one month later.
This kind of service can be said to have completely met the needs of people like Yeluju.
only……
Zhao Xu asked: "How did Huang Liang convince Yeluju?"
This is indeed the crux of the matter.
You just want to convince others with your empty talk? And you will hand over such a huge sum of money to a businessman you met for the first time...
Yeluju is not a child!
It can't be so childish.
Xing Shu hesitated for a moment, but chose to confess: "I reported to the officials that Huang Liang revealed his identity as a member of the Huanglu tribe, and also asked the officials and Cao Huan, the son of the Prince of Xingyang County, to act as guarantees."
"Oh?" Zhao Xu still didn't believe it and said suspiciously: "Is it that simple?"
Huang Lu's clan members added Xing Shu, and Cao Huan acted as guarantee.
In Bianjing City, there may be credibility.
But among the Liao people, I'm afraid they have no credibility.
Xing Shu swallowed his saliva and bowed cautiously: "In addition, it was Master Li who exerted his strength in it."
Zhao Xu chuckled: "Master Li?"
A prostitute in a hookhouse actually trapped a big noble from the Liao Kingdom?!
First, let him spend a lot of money to buy himself a house in Bianjing.
Can it still influence Yeluju's decision now?
Is it possible that Yeluju is still an infatuated person?
To be honest, Zhao Xu didn't really believe it.
Xing Shu did not dare to hide it, so he had to say: "The officials do not know that the Liao envoy Yeluju spent a lot of money last month to buy back Li Shishi's ancestral home in Yimenfang, Bianjing New City, and also bought Li Shishi's mother, brother
We all took them back."
Zhao Xu suddenly let out a sigh.
This was something he didn't know about.
"Tell me carefully..." He became curious.
Xing Shu then introduced to Zhao Xu the life experience of the contemporary Li Shishi.
Speaking of which, he is also a poor man.
The native family of this contemporary Master Li is actually quite good.
His ancestors were also generals of the Forbidden Army, and even served as the commander of the Tiger Wing Army during the Renmiao era.
However, his father was a gambler and lost all his good family property.
Then they can only pawn their wives and sell their daughters.
