Chapter 1022 Mingyue Building
Mingyue Tower is the oldest entertainment venue in Yangzhou, and has a history of hundreds of years. It is said that the boss who originally built this Mingyue Tower was a royal family member of Li Tang.
This laid a solid foundation for Mingyue Tower.
It is not only located in the most prosperous section of the city, but also lasts for hundreds of years, but also covers a large area, and no one can compete with it around it.
This made Mingyue Tower very smooth in its subsequent expansion. By this time, it had an area of more than 70 acres, with mountains and water, pavilions and towers, like a deep and huge royal garden.
Of course, the property rights system of Mingyuelou is also extremely complex. Basically, the nobles who can speak in Nanjing have more or less share.
The biggest leader among them is still the Duke of Wei.
It is also a core point of the Duke of Wei’s Mansion in Yangzhou. It turns out that the person in charge has always been a clan brother of Duke of Wei Xu Hongji.
But this guy fled back to Nanjing before he was besieged in Yangzhou.
Because it was the famous Xu Changqing treating her, before noon passed, there were already traffic and crowds outside the Mingyue Tower.
As long as you have some face in Yangzhou City and can speak, you will come here to support the show first.
no way.
Xu Changqing strictly blocked the news of the war, and the Yangzhou front line was in front, which was completely iron-clad. The local soldiers in Yangzhou could only guard Yangzhou City and were not even qualified to escort food and pay for supplies, which led to the fact that the Yangzhou people could not penetrate the news at all, even at this time they were blind and deaf.
At this time, Xu Changqing actually wanted to treat her. How could they not seize this opportunity?
"Master Wang, what happened to the war ahead? I've been holding it in such a hurry, but I'm so anxious..."
"Yes, Mr. Wang, you are an acquaintance of our Marquis of Haicheng. Can you tell us some news? Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to live this life..."
Among the crowds, a middle-aged fat man wearing a simple green robe couldn't help but become the core of the crowd.
It was the salt merchant Wang Fuchun.
However, although both are salt merchants, unlike other salt merchants who often get hurt and even lose their bones, Wang Fuchun is not only not weak at this time, but his family business is even more than twice as big as before.
The biggest reason for this is naturally because he stood in the right team. When Xu Changqing last rectified the Lianghuai Salt Field, he firmly stood on Xu Changqing's side.
Including Xu Changqing's Xu Yuan, he also gave it to him.
At this point, Xu Changqing had already proved with facts that Wang Fuchun's investment in him was correct!
"Haha. Everyone, you are so polite. How can we, the common people, discuss such a military and national affairs? Please be careful, don't be impatient, the Marquis should come soon. If you have any questions, please ask the Marquis."
Wang Fuchun is almost aware of his destiny and has been accustomed to the wind and waves all his life. How could he be so easy to reveal the core thing, and his "Tai Chi" is so amazing.
In fact, he didn't know the details of the war ahead at this time, but Xu Changqing had already revealed some to him and calmed down his heart.
He already knew that the situation on the front line was still relatively good at this time, and was basically under Xu Changqing's control, and there was only a matter of time left for the Qing army to retreat.
"this……"
Seeing Wang Fuchun's obvious appearance, the wealthy and wealthy people looked at me, and I looked at you, they couldn't stop frowning, and then began to talk softly again.
Wang Fuchun looked at this scene lightly, although there was a warm smile on his face, he couldn't stop sneering in his heart.
These grandsons didn’t even have a single bird feather at the critical moment. Now the situation is almost clear. Oh, have you all come out to pick peaches?
There is no such cheap thing in this world!
Both of them are from this system, Wang Fuchun really knows the thoughts of these wealthy and wealthy families.
Although these people are all five or six people on weekdays, this one has been said to have been passed down for more than ten generations, and that one has claimed to have such a profound foundation, in fact, it is 80% of them are all locals!
Most of their home businesses are based on Yangzhou City as the core structure!
In other words, once Yangzhou City is in trouble, these people will be knocked to hell in the blink of an eye.
Even if these people are more or less surviving in their hometowns, they basically have some ancestral homes and fields, but how can they be compared with this Yangzhou City, which has been prosperous for hundreds of years?
After a long time of discussion, a group of wealthy and wealthy people still had no idea and could only come over and ask Wang Fuchun for help.
Wang Fuchun had already expected this and smiled slowly and said in a scheming manner: "My dear masters, you guys, you really think about this hundred pounds of meat. But just a mere merchant, how could he ask about the Marquis such a military and national affairs without knowing what he is doing?"
He said, bowing respectfully to the direction of Xu Changqing in the north, and then closed his eyes slowly and calmed down.
“…”
The rich and powerful people looked at his villain's success, and their teeth were all tiring. What a fucking thing?
Unfortunately, no matter how angry or unwilling they are, no one dares to provoke Wang Fuchun's majesty.
When beating a dog, you need to look at the owner.
Now that I can't get along with Wang Fuchun, that's not that the old birthday boy hangs himself - he's asking for trouble for himself...
However, not all the rich and powerful families were useless. By this time, several of the old foxes had already seen the trick.
If the Model Army was just doing business today, Wang Fuchun would obviously not have come here so early.
But Wang Fuchun is here...
The meaning is quite clear!
The talented and wise Marquis of Haicheng did not want to make things difficult for them, the poor Yangzhou gentry.
After waiting for a while, after everyone calmed down, a vice president Liu from Tongcheng Sect not far from the west smiled and said, "Mr. Wang, how do you think of this Mingyue Tower?"
"Um?"
Wang Fuchun narrowed his old eyes slightly and looked at Vice President Liu, who was chubby and obedient and pleasing, "President Liu, here I am, I don't quite understand what you mean?"
Vice President Liu hurriedly smiled and said, "That's right, Mr. Wang. I'm with a few friends, there are some things in this Mingyue Building, about a little over 10%. I wonder if Mr. Wang is interested in this?"
Everyone's expressions changed. Looking at Vice President Liu and Wang Fuchun, many people's eyes were filled with terror.
The Mingyue Tower is a business, but the house and land are at least hundreds of thousands of taels, not counting millions of taels. The key is that there are many lines under the Mingyue Tower and a complete maid structure.
To put it bluntly, even if this thing is not as good as the imperial city's talent show, it is definitely not inferior.
Not to mention the relationship with Nanjing.
If we really want to talk about it, it would be no difficulty for Mingyue Tower to be worth two million taels.
But at this time, Vice President Liu was willing to give Mingyuelou, a member of Mingyuelou, who may not be able to invest in money even if you have money?
Wang Fuchun couldn't stop beating the drum in his heart at this time and said to himself: "This person surnamed Liu is really good at it."
Thinking of it, he suddenly smiled and said in public: "President Liu, I wonder if I can speak with one step?"
How could Vice President Liu not understand the profound meaning of Wang Fuchun? He couldn't help but be overjoyed and was busy greeting a few old friends around him, and repeatedly bowing to Wang Fuchun.
Soon, everyone watched the few people go to the private room inside, and then stretched their necks one by one, hoping that they could see through and see clearly what was being discussed inside.
Unfortunately, they didn't seem to have the ability to endure it.
...
In the inner hall, Vice President Liu and others could not care about the face. They almost wanted to kneel in front of Wang Fuchun and beg him to accept more than 10% of the Mingyue Tower in vain.
However, Wang Fuchun has always been difficult to act.
This made Vice President Liu and his friends want to kill someone, but they could only hold it in and endure it.
After a while, Vice President Liu's tears fell, and Wang Fuchun felt a little relieved: "Old Liu, Lao Liu, why are you confused for a while when you are wise and wise? Oh, are you willing to spend money now? But when the Marquis needed you the most, where were you? When my model army 100,000 soldiers needed you the most, where were you? Now, the disaster is coming, and Yangzhou City will be out of stock. Only then do you remember the Marquis? Who do you treat the Marquis as?!"
"I……"
Vice President Liu and others were speechless.
But at this time, it is about life and death, and it is no longer just about the job, but directly related to the whole thing!
Vice President Liu could only say with a bitter face: "Master Wang, this is also the Marquis's not talking to us. In the past, we were the rich and wealthy families who took the lead in donating money and materials first, but in the past, we donated it all, and the people donated it. But the Marquis didn't say to us at all. No one's money was blown by the strong wind..."
"Haha, hahaha!"
When Wang Fuchun heard this, he couldn't help but sneer, and his face turned purple with a smile. His anger almost gathered into substance, and he cursed: "Stupid! Stupid! It's simply foolish! What kind of person is the Marquis? How could he be like those corrupt officials and mobs in the past? Aren't you reluctant to give up money? Then it's easy to say, let the Yangzhou city be conquered by the Tartars, and you are waiting to be massacred and your family will be destroyed!"
Wang Fuchun said, then he raised his sleeves and raised his legs and headed out of the door.
"Master Wang, please wait!"
Vice President Liu and others were anxious and didn't care about their face. They hurriedly pulled Wang Fuchun and pulled him away, "Master Wang, we all know that we are wrong. This Yangzhou is our Yangzhou. Please point us out a clear way..."
One by one, the big men who are always tall and arrogant, cry like women.
Seeing that the temperature was almost done, Wang Fuchun sighed and said, "Old Liu, Lao Zhang, if you hadn't seen you have had a friendship with my surname Wang for more than ten years, I wouldn't care about your trash!"
Seeing that Wang Fuchun finally felt relieved, Vice President Liu and others couldn't help but be overjoyed and were very grateful.
Wang Fuchun said slowly at this time: "Brothers, what's the use of giving me the money? To put it bluntly, I'm a dog under the marquis. If you want the marquis to keep Yangzhou, you have to come up with some real things. How long has this battle been fought? Have you paid 30,000 taels each?"
“…”
Vice President Liu and others lowered their heads in shame, and hurriedly criticized Wang Fuchun again.
Wang Fuchun thought for a while and said, "Old Liu, you are all smart people. Now that we are like this, we can only expect to make up for the loss of sheep. It's not too late. In this way, no one can afford to pay the money for food and grass. You guys can only calculate the business accountant, and each chamber of commerce must not be less than 100,000 taels of fresh food! In addition, if the Marquis has no industry in Yangzhou, why should the men fight to protect you? I won't say much about this, you think about it yourself!"
"this……"
