Qi Bainian pressed his hand to the people and expressed his position: "Fathers and fellow villagers, please rest assured that killing Miao Shang is just the beginning. I will definitely find out the matter as quickly as possible. All the murderers who have committed this matter are the same."
No mercy!"
"good!"
"We believe Master Qi!!"
After finishing speaking, Qi Bainian looked towards Zhao Cheng. Zhao Cheng smiled slightly and gave Qi Bainian a thumbs up.
Qi Bainian then turned and left.
At this time, the people in Jiangcheng turned their attention to Zhao Cheng and his party, and surrounded them one after another.
"Master, did you arrest Miao Shang?"
"You are the benefactor of our people in Jiangcheng!"
"Who are you?"
Zhao Cheng glanced sideways at Huang Hua, and Huang Hua took a step forward, waved and said: "This is the Young Prime Minister of Yanchuan, the Consort of Dajing, the boss of our Fairy Winery! Have you ever heard of the Evil Star of the Southern Spy?"
Last year, the Southern Zhou spies were killed three times by our boss!"
"I know the evil star of the Southern Spy, he is the son of the right prime minister!"
"Why did the young prime minister come to Jiangcheng?"
Huang Hua continued: "Have you heard of Xianjiu? It is a very delicious wine. Xianjiu is now selling well in Yanchuan and Qingdong. We have brought Xianjiu to Jiangcheng now. We will meet in a few days
I will take out some for you to taste, and everyone can come and taste it for free!”
"Okay! Of course you have to drink free wine!"
“We are waiting for the announcement and will definitely come to support you!!”
…
After Miao Shang was beheaded, Zhao Cheng and his party moved out of the governor's mansion. Zhao Cheng did not live in an inn, but directly bought a house and named it "Elegant and Popular Villa".
This trip to Jiangcheng is different from the trip to Hannan City. What needs to be done cannot be accomplished in a short time. It is easier to do it if you have a place of your own.
Zhao Cheng presented a gift of wine in front of the courtyard, and everyone who came had a share, half a tael per person. Everyone who drank the wine tasted the deliciousness of the fairy wine but could not stop being addicted to it. They were very excited by the taste of the fairy wine.
Especially the aroma of ambrosia is mellow. When you open the cork, the whole alley will be filled with the aroma of wine.
The rich man drank the free fairy wine and wanted to spend money to buy it, but Zhao Cheng refused. Zhao Cheng admitted frankly that the fairy wine brought during this trip was limited and could only be tasted for free. After waiting for dozens of days, the wine would be available for everyone.
Officially for sale.
While Zhao Cheng was offering wine, Qi Bainian vigorously investigated the Jingjun massacre case. In less than ten days, he picked out six officers from all over Jiangyang County and escorted them all to Jiangcheng to behead them in public.
The execution of these six people was even more lively than the day when Miao Shang was executed. Many people in Jiangcheng even knelt down around the execution ground and kowtowed to Qi Bainian, saying that Qi Bainian was the best official in the world.
Qi Bainian also said frankly that he had written to the court to admit his dereliction of duty. During his tenure as the county governor, such a bad incident happened, and he was to blame! He was willing to bear any punishment from the court!
After listening to what Qi Bainian said, some people even shed tears. They did not want Qi Bainian to be implicated because of this matter, let alone Qi Bainian to be transferred out of Jiangcheng.
Zhao Cheng was also among the people. It was clear that Qi Bainian had done a good job, but he always felt that it was not real.
It doesn't make sense, it's just an intuition.
He gently retreated from the crowd and saw Qi Bainian looking at him from a distance.
Tens of days passed, Ma Cong and He Laosan came from Hannan City to escort Immortal Wine. After meeting Ma Cong in Lingshan last time, Zhao Cheng knew that Ma Cong abandoned bandits and went into business, so he absorbed him into Dongfang
Chamber of Commerce.
Although I don't know what Ma Cong's practical ability is, first of all, he is a person with strong cohesion. Such a person is very suitable for being a middle-level manager. Even if he only has this one strength, he is still a talent that Zhao Cheng urgently needs.
In addition to building a winery in Hannan City, the Chamber of Commerce also built many warehouses to store the goods that the Chamber of Commerce wanted to sell.
Before Ma Cong left for Jiangcheng, there were soaps, toilet water and women's underwear shipped from Yanchuan City in the warehouse. According to Zhao Cheng's instructions, Ma Cong brought them with him.
Zhao Cheng's external identity is the owner of the fairy wine factory, and he uses the fairy wine to cooperate with Xiao Luomu's Oriental Chamber of Commerce. However, his personal relationship with Xiao Luomu is not a secret, so while promoting the fairy wine, he helps Xiao Luomu sell it.
The products of the Chamber of Commerce are also justified.
After spreading the reputation of the fairy wine in Jiangcheng by giving away wine, Zhao Cheng opened the door and waited for Jiangcheng merchants to come to him. The situation was exactly as he expected. The merchants came to visit one after another to discuss cooperation in selling wine. After finalizing
After the initial intention, Zhao Cheng then promoted soap, toilet water and women's underwear.
Scented soap and toilet water have actually been available in Jiangcheng for a long time, but they were all sold through Jingdong County. Some wealthy families bought them for themselves or gave them away to others, but no one had the opportunity to do this business yet.
Seeing that Zhao Cheng not only brought out fairy wine, but also soap and toilet water, all the merchants in Jiangcheng were very excited and praised Zhao Cheng as their God of Wealth.
It's just this women's underwear that they were a little confused about for a while.
What are these two pieces of cloth?
Zhao Cheng kept it secret and didn't say much to them. He only said that he would treat them to a banquet when the fairy wine and goods arrived in Jiangcheng, and then sign a formal sales contract. After the fairy wine and daily necessities were finalized, he would talk about women's underwear.
thing.
After Ma Cong arrived, Zhao Cheng immediately asked Huang Hua to arrange a signing banquet.
It was already early February, when spring was warm and flowers were blooming. The restaurant Huang Hua found was very unique. There were two peach trees in the courtyard. The occasional breeze blew by, blowing off the tender red peach leaves, which gave it a unique flavor.
Zhao Cheng was in a good mood and sat on the main seat waiting for the arrival of all the merchants.
It was past noon, but no one had come to the banquet.
Xu An became impatient and said displeasedly: "If a businessman is not punctual, he is probably unreliable, right?"
Zhao Cheng's mood also worsened. He had dealt with those merchants and did not think that they were unpunctual, and even if some were unpunctual, not all of them would be unpunctual.
There is a high probability that something went wrong.
"Yuan Fei, go and have a look."
"yes."
Yuan Fei did not go through the main entrance, but jumped directly onto the peach tree, then jumped to the roof and climbed out of the wall.
In less than half an hour, Yuan Fei came back.
"Master, the situation is not good."
Yuan Fei jumped down behind Zhao Cheng, walked over quickly, and said: "I investigated and learned that these merchants did not come to the appointment because they were threatened."
During Yuan Fei's investigation, Zhao Cheng had already anticipated many possibilities and was not surprised by the result.
"Who is threatening them?"
"The Lu family and the Tu family in Jiangcheng."
Zhao Cheng tapped his fingers rhythmically and said: "The two largest powerful families in Jiangcheng have not come to see me since I gave them wine, and now they want to prevent me from cooperating with other businesses. What do they want?"
"Most likely they want to monopolize Jiangyang County's fairy wine business." Huang Hua thought for a moment and continued: "They are showing their strength to you, boss, and then forcing us to visit first."
