The raging fire at Su Ji's granary swept away the stale atmosphere in the chamber of commerce. Although only a few key figures knew the inside story, the small businessmen who had followed the three giants of the chamber of commerce for a long time knew that all this was naturally happening.
The big guys from the chamber of commerce took action.
They were glad that they were able to recognize the situation clearly and follow the Chamber of Commerce. Although they could only pick up scraps to eat, some food was better than nothing; besides, although the majority of the benefits belonged to the three members of the Chamber of Commerce,
The remaining dregs are enough for these small merchants to build a well-off family in Luzhou City; there is also a more important point: you don’t have to worry about your own shop being smashed, the warehouse will not catch fire for no reason, right?
Su Ji is indeed a good supporting actor. Under Su Jin's arrangement, the shop owner of Su's grain store went to the Luzhou magistrate's office to report the crime at dawn, crying in agony.
Why did the young master of the Su family not come to report the case in person? It is said that he was so angry that he was already bedridden.
At the Chamber of Commerce's daily morning meeting, everyone in the Chamber of Commerce looked at each other with laughter after hearing the news. It seemed that like father, like son, this boy was afraid that he would follow in his father's footsteps.
But Tang Jiyuan didn't mention this matter at all, and he didn't even mention Su Ji's name. He just said a few words and hurriedly announced the breakup of the meeting.
To Tang Jiyuan, Su Ji was like a dog blocking the road on the way up the mountain. He had already been kicked down the mountain. Do we still need to go down the mountain to see how many bones he had broken? It is not worth mentioning at all.
.
From Tang Jiyuan's point of view, all fancy means are not as effective as a clean thunder blow. If you scratch Old Man Hua's face, I will kill you. Who will be there with you?
People say blessings never come in pairs, and good things never come in pairs; for President Tang, today is a blessing and good things come in pairs, because a large amount of grain purchased by Vice President Huang at a large price has arrived in Nanjing.
Gate Pier.
The Chamber of Commerce has spent a lot of money this time and has its finger on the pulse of huge grain profits next year. It even does not hesitate to collect at a consistent price per stone. This price has exceeded the psychological limit of merchants from various places who went to Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Hunan to purchase, so it is easy to defeat them.
Many merchants, amidst the roar of curses, Vice President Huang purchased 300,000 shi of grain in accordance with Tang Jiyuan's request.
The transportation of this batch of grain alone will have to be transported to Luzhou South Gate Pier in several batches. Each trip of 30 grain ships will require four round trips. In one day, these 300,000 shi of grain will bring him
Three hundred thousand gold, four hundred thousand gold, or even more returns.
He despised those timid small merchants. Only he, Tang Jiyuan, could make such a big deal without blinking an eyelid, so he did not let the small chamber of commerce help with things like connecting ships.
"Let's just share some of the profits with them then. It's not good to have too many people and many hands." Tang Jiyuan thought to himself: "We need more people to guard the granary. We must not cut off people for twelve hours a day.
You can't hide it from other people's eyes and ears, but even if someone wants to cause trouble, you will have no chance to take advantage of it."
…
The young official of the Su family, who was seriously ill because of the rumored anger, was reading in the study at the moment. Naturally, he had to do a full set of performances. In order to comply with the rumors from the outside world, he could only stay in the Su mansion without leaving the house.
Oh my god, Su Jin really looks a little sick now. He can't go out for the past three days and can only stay bored in the study and read thread-bound books. Apart from the naive Xiao Mi'er who doesn't know the charm, other people such as Xiao Sui'er are beside him.
, sisters Rou Niang and Huan Niang all have their own affairs, so he can only stay at home bored.
Mrs. Wang went there several times. After greeting her every day, she could only chat a few words. Next, Mrs. Wang had to recite sutras and worship Buddha. It was a set of cumbersome procedures, but the old lady was very busy, although she was not happy.
I objected to Su Jin watching from the sidelines, but Su Jinguang was going crazy listening to those awkward scriptures.
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, walking in the deep Prajna Paramita, always sees that the five aggregates are empty, and survives all hardships. Relic! It is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color. Feelings, thoughts, and consciousness
, and the same is true. Relics! These are all empty phenomena. They are neither born nor destroyed, nor dirty nor pure, neither increasing nor decreasing. Therefore, there is no color in the air, no feelings, thoughts, and consciousness. There are no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, or mind. There is no color sound.
Fragrance touches the Dharma. There is no vision, even the unconscious world. There is no ignorance, and there is no end of ignorance. There is no old age and death, and there is no end of old age and death..."
When the old lady knocked on the wooden fish and chanted sutras again, Su Jin had no choice but to return to the study. He turned left and right, and suddenly saw the black box found in the secret room of the woodshed at the back.
I was bored, so I took it out and read it again.
The three black pills still had the same pungent smell. Su Jin felt nauseated when he smelled the smell. He quickly threw them into the box and picked up the yellow piece of paper with the writing on it to identify and study it.
After half an hour, Su Jin finally retreated. This is not a fucking calligraphy, this is a ghost drawing! After all, he has also practiced calligraphy at a small level, and has also copied real cursive script, but the several lines of characters on this piece of paper are like a
Not knowing, Su Jin sighed, stuffed the piece of paper into the box, and put it away again.
After drinking several cups of tea out of boredom and going to the toilet several times, Su Jin fell asleep holding a copy of "The Doctrine of the Mean", but for some unknown reason, his body was burning and he was indescribably unhappy.
"Are you suffering from heatstroke?" Su Jin touched his forehead and pinched his philtrum again. The discomfort on his body became more and more intense and gradually spread to a certain part of his body.
"It's not good, could it be..." Su Jin started to sweat. He suddenly remembered that night when he was hunting for treasure in the backyard. After smelling the black pills, he got Rou Niang when he came back. Although he had that idea, but in the
In my life experience in this and future generations, I have never been so domineering towards a woman. When I feel attracted to her, I will strip off my clothes and enter Hong Kong.
"Is there something wrong with this pill?" Su Jin didn't know what to do.
The situation became more and more urgent, and the strangeness in the body became more and more difficult to suppress. A certain part was as hard as iron. Su Jin awkwardly clamped it under his legs and pressed it down. Suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, and Xiaomier appeared at the door and said
: "My lord, the Yan Dong family from Hefenglou is here to visit!"
Su Jin screamed, and he came at the right time, and hurriedly said: "Just say that I am not here, and I will come to visit you tomorrow to apologize."
Xiao Mi'er scratched her head and turned away in confusion. After a while, Su Jin heard her voice: "Dong Yan's family, I'm extremely sorry. My young master said he's not here... I'll visit you tomorrow."
Su Jinyu cried without tears. This stupid girl was hopeless. She hurriedly shouted: "I'm here...I'm here..."
Just as I heard soft footsteps coming, a pretty figure appeared at the door of the study, smiling and saying: "Is Mr. Su usually teasing people like this?"
Su Jin was not standing, nor was he not standing. Fortunately, the desk was not too short, and his half-crouched posture just covered his lower body, so he reluctantly bowed his body and saluted.
Xiaomier brought tea and then exited. Su Jin and Yan Biyun were the only two people left in the study. Su Jin only felt that his sense of smell became more and more acute. He could still smell Yan Biyun's good and tempting scent from far away across the desk.
, his face turned red, and he could only force himself to suppress the thoughts in his heart.
Yan Biyun looked at Su Jin and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Are you really sick?"
Su Jin gritted his teeth and waved his hands, indicating that he was fine.
Yan Biyun became more and more suspicious. He stood up and walked towards the desk. Su Jin hurriedly said: "Don't... don't come over."
"How can you hold on when you are sick? You have to seek medical advice. Biyun has read some medical books. How about I help you take a look?"
Su Jinxin said: Can I let you see it? I would be surprised if I didn't scare you to death when I saw you. I had a lot of desire in my stomach, so I had to keep waving my hands to prevent Yan Biyun from getting close.dd
