Two hundred and fifty seventh chapters master tricks
On both sides of the chessboard, two men with equally pale faces were sitting. It would not be appropriate to call them men. One of them should be said to be a young man. Their expressions were very similar, both with half-downcast eyebrows.
"It seems that what my sister said is true. My brother-in-law's chess skills should not be underestimated." At this time, the title has been promoted from Xiaohouye to brother-in-law. It seems that Yuchen recognizes this brother-in-law.
"She said she often drags you to practice with her, which makes things difficult for you." Dongfang Ye smiled half-heartedly. Liu Yun was too close to see the difference in her younger brother, and kept saying that she wanted to protect him.
From what she said, according to him, it was Yuchen, the younger brother, who always protected Liuyun.
"My sister is the eldest daughter in the family, so she is inevitably spoiled. I hope my brother-in-law will take more care of her in the future." Yu Chen clung to Bai Zi and landed in the middle, blocking the opponent's attack.
A slight smile appeared on Dongfang Ye's lips. People say that you can tell someone's character by watching him play chess. Yuchen is young and mature, and his extremely calm character is not at all like a fifteen-year-old boy. He does not despise the opponent nor does he
Look high at your opponent, think about countermeasures while playing chess, and make every move very steadily.
This young man will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future.
"I heard that the three ladies of the Dongfang family are not easy to mess with. I wonder if my brother-in-law will let my sister suffer?" Yu Chen ate a row of sunspots from Dongfang Ye and smiled slyly.
"Of course I won't let anyone bully her." Dongfang Ye has always been a secretive person. Even if he was eaten by a row of sunspots, he didn't show the slightest trace of worry.
"That's the best thing." Yuchen's white pieces were also eaten away, and he remained calm.
When real masters compete with each other, it's hard to say who will win.
After all, Yuchen was younger, still slightly inferior to Dongfang Ye, but such a temperament was extremely rare, and it was rare for Dongfang Ye to have thoughts about a young man.
Then, Dongfang Ye's eyes moved and fell on the jade pendant around his waist. The jade pendant was a rare mutton-fat jade. Although it was rare, it was not precious enough to attract Dongfang Ye's attention. What really caught his attention was the tassels on the jade pendant.
, that's... He narrowed his eyes slightly and understood clearly in his heart. No wonder this young man is so outstanding. No wonder.
Yuchen didn't notice Dongfang Ye's expression at this time, because he was shocked by the strange thoughts of the man opposite him. He was different from the opponents Yuchen had met before, but every chess player always has his own unique characteristics.
The chess course is affected by changes in the situation, but Dongfang Ye will not be affected at all. This man is unpredictable, and such people are the most terrifying.
"I heard that you are now doing business with your father?" Dongfang Ye paused, retracted his hand, and picked up the Three Friends of Suihan.
"The imperial court has promulgated many new policies for merchants all over the world, and my father is naturally very happy." Yuchen responded lightly. He was indeed very interested in doing business and liked the feeling of having everything under control.
"The first shot is to kill the first bird. After all, the development of Mu Mansion is too fast." Dongfang Ye lowered his head to drink tea, but what he said did not sound like he was talking to a boy who was more than ten years younger than him, but rather like a member of his generation.
Such equality obviously surprised Yuchen.
"Brother-in-law, do you have any good ideas?" Yuchen's tone was still calm, but there were already ripples in his heart. He had a feeling that Dongfang Ye was really inscrutable, so he would ask such words to test.
he.
What he didn't expect was that Dongfang Ye would actually answer him, and he would answer very seriously.
"Do you know Nanming? The status of merchants in Nanming is extremely high. On the one hand, it is because Nanming's economy has developed very well, which has made the status of merchants rise. On the other hand, because Nanming's businessmen are very smart, they know how to shoot the first bird.
, so they cleverly joined forces." Dongfang Ye tilted his head and looked at Yuchen, wanting to see how far this young man had reached.
"Brother-in-law, are you talking about the Chamber of Commerce?" Yuchen was not familiar with Nanming, but because Mu Mansion had done business with a businessman in Nanming before, he had only heard about some things about Nanming from him. At that time, he was familiar with the so-called Chamber of Commerce.
Very interested.
"Mufu is now the richest man in Linyang City, but you should know very well that it is easy for the imperial court to crack down on businessmen. The original private salt incident almost made Mufu almost unable to turn around." Dongfang Ye's words have always been true.
That's all. If the young man in front of him was not Liu Yun's younger brother, he would definitely not remind him so much.
Yu Chen frowned and thought carefully about Dongfang Ye's words.
In fact, as he said, although the Mu family is the richest man, it cannot compare with the power of the government. Even if the emperor implements the New Deal to improve the status of merchants, it is all in vain. If you want to truly stand in a high position without being
People can trample on them at will, but what they need is real strength.
And this power may be the Chamber of Commerce that Dongfang Ye mentioned.
As the saying goes, the law does not punish everyone. If the merchants of Linyang City unite as a force and everyone becomes people in the same boat, then... if someone wants to frame the design, it will not be that easy.
"So, who won?" Liu Yun and Qian Lan walked in together, and the maid behind them came in with plates of snacks. It seemed that the young lady couldn't wait and ran to the kitchen to hurry up.
"Sister, please save some face for your brother." Yu Chen glared at Liu Yun, but the smile on his lips betrayed his good mood. It seemed that Dongfang Ye's words made him enlightened a lot.
Seeing Yuchen's smile and Dongfang Ye's calm expression, Liuyun knew that her husband had completed what she had told her to do. She had heard from Qianlan about some of the recent troubles that Mu Mansion had encountered. She knew that Dongfang
Ye is the owner of Murong Villa, so naturally he should know a lot about business matters, so he was asked to help find a solution.
"Yuchen, don't be discouraged. When your brother-in-law grows old in ten years, you will still have a chance to win against him." Liu Yun covered her mouth and snickered, and then she was taken into his arms and knocked on her forehead.
, a low question came from my ears, "I will be old in ten years?"
"..." Liu Yun was speechless, complaining that Dongfang Ye was so ungrateful, bullying her like this in front of her brother, huh.
Seeing the close relationship between the two, Yu Chen smiled and looked away. His eldest sister was very happy, so that was fine. As for this mysterious brother-in-law, no matter who he was, as long as he was sincere to his sister,
That's good.
However, just based on the specious words he just said, Yuchen can be 100% sure that this brother-in-law is definitely not a small person. It seems that his confused eldest sister has really chosen the right person.
I have to say that this Dongfang Ye is much better than Shen Yi, that deep-seated guy.
