Following Yun Ye's question, the Yunfu guards who had long been unable to hold themselves back jumped up and pushed the three merchants to the ground with their heads on the ground, unable to move. Yun Ye took a sip of tea and said to the three of them:
"It's really shameless. Even if you have the backing of a big family, why don't you even understand the basic etiquette? Now even if I break your legs, it's just right. No one has anything to say. I think the people behind you will probably do the same.
I’m going to punish you again. Let me tell you, a good thing has been ruined by you. If you don’t want to, then get out.”
While Yun Ye was scolding, He Shao walked in, followed by a rough man holding a cloth bag in his hand. Seeing that Yun Ye was getting angry, he stood at the door and did not dare to come in.
"How about it, Marquis Yun, I have long said that the three of them have made a fortune by monopolizing the masonry business in Chang'an over the years. They have been so rich and fat that their hearts have been darkened for a long time. You still don't believe it, but now you know,
Why didn't you let the guards break your legs and go to Yun's house to talk nonsense and seek death?"
Lao He can be regarded as a merchant, but he is a merchant with a title. This trip to the grassland has gained a lot. The money sent to the sergeants was not sent on business. The military is very satisfied. Several big shots in the army have spoken out for him.
Thanks to his good words, he kept his family title, and now he is extremely prestigious in the Chang'an business community. He has a vague tendency to be a business tycoon.
Lao He waved, and the man carefully put the things in his hands on the ground, lay down and saluted Yun Ye.
"Forget it, take out the things you brought and show them to these three idiots, so as not to accuse me of bullying others."
The man in civilian clothes unwrapped the object wrapped in silk, and it turned out to be a piece of brick. The brick was well burned, but it was a blue brick with no obvious looseness or cracks on it. In the middle of the brick, there were a few words sunken: royal family.
dedicated.
Yun Ye handed the bricks to the three businessmen and said to them: "I originally wanted to stop the Yun family's brickwork and concentrate on baking cement. Let the three of you take over the Yun family's brick-making, but I didn't expect you to be so evil. Then
You can't blame me. I'll just build a few more kilns, and the Yun family will continue to bake bricks. If there's not enough, they will supply it. By the way, I don't know your name yet?"
"When I return to the Marquis, my surname is Liu. Xing San, you can call me Liu San. He used to be under the command of Qiao Gong, but later he violated military discipline and was expelled from the military camp, so he started this business. If the Marquis
The bricks and stones are handed over to the villain. I don’t charge a penny for the supplies. I just ask the Marquis to allow me to put these words on the bricks and stones I burn in the future." Although Liu San no longer served as a soldier, his temper did not change.
He still has the neatness of a soldier, but his brain is not stupid. He knows the value of these four words, and other brands with a century-old history may not necessarily have these four words.
Listen to Liu San's words. These three people are anxious. The royal family's prestige among the people is unparalleled. Even if you say that your bricks are good, it is not as good as if someone just took out a brick with the four words "royal exclusive" engraved on it.
, even used by the royal family, what should ordinary people worry about at home? If you see others carving, you dare not carve random words on the bricks and stones of your own house. Without permission, you will be beheaded.
It didn't take much thinking to know that this originally second-rate brick burner would replace them as the largest brick and stone supplier in the capital in a short period of time. When they thought of this, they couldn't help but feel anxious. Businessmen are the purest people, and there will never be any
There is no such thing as correcting mistakes.
The fat businessman surnamed Wang crumpled the treaty he had just handed to Yun Ye into a ball and stuffed it into his mouth, swallowed it hard, and kowtowed to the ground, hoping only to be forgiven by the Yun family.
The other two families were actually still hesitating, not sure whether they should kowtow and beg for mercy, or continue to fight to the end, their eyes wandering around trying to get the best of both worlds.
He Shao pulled up Fatty Wang who was kneeling on the ground and said to him: "Okay, it's just your two families. The Marquis won't let you work in vain. You have a group of wives and concubines who need to be fed. You have a big problem this time."
It's cheap. This is a good thing that can be passed down to future generations. No one else can take it away. The empress only gave 30,000 guan, which is only 20% of the money to build the palace, so the price of your bricks and stones can only be 20%.
As for the price you sell it to others, it's up to you. The price you can sell the gold at is also yours, and 20% is limited to the construction of the palace. The bricks and stones in Xinghuafang will be sold at the original price, which will cost you a penny less."
Liu San was also a smart man. He stepped forward and took the businessman surnamed Wang by the hand and said, "Brother, please take more care of me in the future. The two of us will build the palace. Our ancestors will have face for eight generations. Let's see who dares to stand in our way."
Brothers, if you have the ability to sell the bricks and stones to the royal family, let’s talk about it.”
The fat businessman was filled with sorrow and joy. He was glad that he had escaped. The remaining two people had just thought about it and were ready to agree. Who knew that Yun Ye would not listen to them and waved his hands. The two of them were taken out by the Yun family guards and thrown out of the door.
He spat, said "What the hell" and turned back home.
The merchants in the yard suddenly became quiet. Some of them leaned against the wall arrogantly and tried to sneak out. The servants of the Yun family stared at them and invited them back one by one with ill intentions. Is it so easy to take advantage of the Yun family?
If you don't peel off your skin, the Marquis will let you go. I didn't see that I just threw out two of them.
With examples, other people are easy to talk to, and businessmen are not stupid. When they hear that there is such a once-in-a-lifetime good thing, no one will not join in. How difficult is it to lay a foundation for a hundred years? As long as you are a businessman, how can you not understand?
Yes, there is a shortcut now. As long as you pay a temporary price, the next three generations will be able to rely on these four words of royal supply.
When the news spread, the Yun family became even more lively. This time, gifts were the way to go. The concierge of the Yun family raised his chin high and didn't even look at the merchants holding gifts. He just said: "Master Hou, I'm tired."
, is resting and has no guests." He closed the door with a bang. Those who knew knew he was the concierge, and those who didn't thought he was Lord Shi.
Yun Ye did not rest, but met with nobles of all sizes in the living room. These people came to see them according to the etiquette, so naturally it was not easy to turn them away, so they greeted them respectfully. Yun Ye personally greeted them in front of the living room door.
.
"Brother Buqi, I haven't seen you for a long time and I want to kill you. I heard that you have made great contributions to the country on the grassland and desert. I wish you could fly to Shuofang City to fight side by side with my brother. Wouldn't it be great!"
"Brother Shuren, I heard that you took in a new concubine a few days ago. She is a stunning beauty in Yanlailou. When will I pay my respects to my wife?"
"Go away, I didn't say that I came to see my brother. I'm just thinking about my sister-in-law. What's the point of coming here? My brother also tried the melon at Yanlailou, but it didn't have any artistic conception. Please tell me if you have any tips?"
"Haha, Brother Buqi, I heard that you were tricked by the Empress again. I came here to congratulate you. I also want to be tricked by the Empress, but unfortunately there is no way to appeal. It is really enviable for others to see the Empress in such a different light!"
"Brother Bu Qi, my little brother's family relies on a tung oil shop to survive. They are all brothers. It's up to you."
The mess in the hall was like entering a henhouse. Some were talking about friendship, some were getting close, some were making jokes, and some were threatening friendship. In short, Yun Ye was like a grass in the wind and rain, being shaken around.
Most of the people who could come to the Yun family were children of the military. Yun Ye had no reason to refuse. The military of the Tang Dynasty had always been very united, especially when dealing with civilian officials. Even if there were huge conflicts in the family, once the military was involved
The interests, unspoken, are all aimed at the outside world.
Yun Ye now also belongs to the military system. These dandies naturally have no taboos when talking. They must satisfy their own family first. This is the foundation of life. The Yun family held a banquet to entertain a room full of monsters and monsters.
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, all the dandies put down their glasses in unison and looked at Yun Ye, waiting for him to say something and finish the business before continuing to drink. Everyone at home was waiting for him.
"All brothers are our own family. I will not say those polite words. I was tricked by the empress. I am holding on to a hot potato. I have no choice. I have given the order and I have to complete it even if I bow my head to the ground. Otherwise, we
The military's face was completely humiliated by the younger brother.
I thought hard and finally figured out a way to build the palace with 30,000 guan, which is to sell the naming rights. This naming right cannot be sold for copper coins, otherwise His Majesty will hang my brother on the flagpole to dry, so I have to start with the price, everyone.
Brother, as long as the family's property can be linked to the construction of the palace, I will agree to it. But let's be honest, the price can only be 20% of the original price. Of course, it is only for the materials used in the palace. Everything else, including Xinghuafang, will be supplied according to the price.
If I can buy it at the original price, please let me know."
Since they are the same interests, there is no need to separate them into distant relatives.
"Brother Bu Qi is right. Thirty thousand guan is not enough to build a palace. It is still the political palace, which is enough for 20% of the flowers. My brother's family is a paint maker, which is needed in the palace. Why don't you say this?
, as long as it is for the palace, my brother will pay for it and supply it, just treat it as a helper to tide over the difficulties. No one should rob it from me, and I will beat whoever robs it."
Liu Hongji's son has this kind of virtue. His father is a gangster and has nothing but fists.
Soon, the agreement was reached. There were two companies doing the same business. They discussed among themselves the share that each company should pay, and everyone was happy.
After the matter was done, their respective servants passed the news home, the banquet continued, and the dandies continued to drink. Yun Ye only remembered that he was dragged into the middle of the place to dance, and he was still spinning around, and he didn't know anything.
.
Another day has passed. Just now, I heard the sound of drums in a daze. The genius had just dawned. Why did someone keep shaking me? The hangover last night gave Yun Ye an unbearable headache. He pushed his head impatiently.
Pushing it away with one hand, he turned over and got ready to sleep again.
This time, he stopped pushing and raised his eyebrows instead. Yun Ye was furious, who in the family was so bold? Did he know if I was drunk last night?
I couldn't sleep now. I got up and was ready to go crazy. Who knew that the person who caught my eye was Li Chengqian. Staring at the two dark circles under his eyes, he asked Yun Ye: "Where did the penny go?" (To be continued...)
