Ever since he got those letters, Su Ren never left home again. He spent all day in his study studying the information on the letters with Huo Qubing, and at the same time, he compared it with the information obtained by his subordinates. This way he could ensure
The accuracy of the messages can also complement each other, minimizing errors and omissions.
Cui Jiuming had been standing outside the door of Su's house for three full days. Su Ren ignored this. He believed that someone would handle the matter. However, something seemed wrong. After three days, Cui Chengru did not come to take Cui
After Jiu Ming got it back, more and more merchants stood behind Cui Jiuming every day. Cui Jiuming was now an official, so it was considered a great honor for him not to force his way into the Su family.
While eating, Su Ren asked Huang Shisan: "Old Cui is still outside the door? How many people are there today?"
Huang Shisan nodded: "There are more people today than yesterday. The people outside the door said that more than a hundred people came today, all of them merchants from the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce."
Su Ren ate the rice in the bowl in two mouthfuls, threw down the bowl and chopsticks and walked out: "Let Lao Cui come in. If you don't see Lao Cui again, you will be crazy!"
Cui Jiuming was not crazy. He really wanted to see Su Ren. As soon as he learned that Su Ren was going to abandon the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce, Cui Jiuming rushed to Chang'an without sleep. More than a dozen horses had been exhausted.
, the twenty personal followers who came back with Cui Jiuming have lost weight. Fortunately for Cui Jiuming, he was a little bloated at first, but he just lost weight this time.
When he entered, Cui Jiuming spread his legs and limped. Su Ren chuckled: "The last time I saw someone walking like this was in the palace. I heard that he was a chamberlain who had just been cleansed. Why are you also a chamberlain in the city?"
Cui Jiuming sat casually next to Su Ren, picked up the tea bowl on the table and poured it into his mouth: "Yes! He was still a servant who died miserably. Someone has already told me that if I can't guarantee the success of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce
Honor, in a few days I will not only become a chamberlain, but my life will be gone."
"Who is it? You are so bold. You are also a court official after all. Don't tell me you are one of those princes who came from all over the world!"
"They don't have the guts." Cui Jiuming rolled his eyes in disdain and sighed: "Are you really going to abandon the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce?"
Su Ren glanced at Cui Jiuming: "What's wrong? My leaving is actually a good thing for the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce. With me as the major shareholder, everyone will get less money. Once I leave, you can get more.
, which is a good thing.”
"Haha!" Cui Jiuming laughed twice: "I don't think it's a good thing. Who in the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce doesn't know that you brought all this? I am like the president of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce. It won't take long for you to leave the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce.
It will fall apart, and I'm afraid it will all be advantageous to your Chang'an Chamber of Commerce. If you feel that I have hindered your affairs, just say it directly, why bother to make it so troublesome? If I leave first, maybe a whole corpse will be left, so you leave me behind.
, I will die miserably."
"Who is it? In my impression, no big man has such great ability to do anything to you, even..."
"Don't even do it. It's the one you mentioned that wants to deal with me. People have been staring at my fat body. If I hadn't been worried about your face, I'm afraid I would have done it long ago. You'd better leave as soon as you come back. Then I
All we can do is wait." Cui Jiuming sighed again: "My father has donated half of his family property, but he has received nothing. I am very worried now. I am not afraid of losing everything, but I am afraid of dying without a complete body!"
Su Ren frowned: "You mean the emperor wants to do something bad to you?"
"You just know?"
Su Ren chuckled: "Actually, it's not difficult to guess. Don't you think the current Sichuan Chamber of Commerce is still the same one as before? Your business is too sophisticated. Yelang and Qiang have a foot in it, as well as Nanman and Xiongnu.
I won’t let you go. If I hadn’t rejected you in the Western Region, you would never have given up. Sometimes eating too much fat may not be a good thing. There are not many merchants who can make His Majesty be wary."
Cui Jiuming smiled helplessly: "How come it sounds from your mouth that the emperor is doing this for my own good? To be honest, did you decide to leave after seeing something? Or..."
"Don't make blind guesses, I left just to save you!"
"How to save?"
"I'll give you two words, be willing to give up! Only when you give up can you get something, and only when you are willing to give up can you get it. It is no exaggeration to say that with the financial resources of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce, you can start a war by supporting any prince or king. That's why Your Majesty took the risk
Facing the danger of another turmoil, you have taken too big a step by forcing so many princes and kings to stay in the capital, and you are still unwilling to surrender to the imperial court. The result is already very good."
"Then I..."
"Then what are you doing?" Su Ren glared at Cui Jiuming: "Go back now, clear out all those irrelevant people, and only retain the foundation of the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce. If your Majesty needs to use your full strength, you will never give up.
Maybe in three to five years, His Majesty will reconsider whether to accept you, and then you will be able to retire with success, but now there is only a dead end."
"Do you know how much we will lose by doing this?"
"It doesn't matter how much you lose, it doesn't matter how much you lose. That's it. It's up to you whether you do it or not."
Cui Jiuming lowered his head in thought, frowning for a long time, and kept sitting on his chair. The Central Jiangsu Chamber of Commerce is now not just limited to Shuzhong, but has industries all over the world. It is said that the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce is the world's
The largest gang is by no means an exaggeration, and it is the richest gang, which can even compete with the Han treasury. All of this was Cui Jiuming's hard work, and Su Ren's role in it was very limited. At this time, let
Cui Jiuming cut off his arm to protect himself, which is not much different from killing him.
Cui Jiuming's long exam took a long, long time. Seeing that it was getting dark, Cui Jiuming came back from his meditation. Su Ren was no longer beside him, and Cui Jiuming did not look for Su Ren again.
, lowered his head and walked out of the gate with a bitter look on his face. The merchants who had been waiting outside surrounded Cui Jiuming, but did not receive any reply, and his heart became even more hanging.
Cui Chengru has been waiting for his son Cui Jiuming's return in the lobby of his home every day for the past few days, and today is no exception. When Lao Wang saw Cui Jiuming's carriage from a distance, he turned around and ran towards the lobby. His agility was not inferior to that of the young boy: "Old Wang
Shopkeeper, the president is back."
Cui Chengru immediately stood up and walked towards the outer door. Cui Jiuming had just gotten off the car and looked up to see his father standing in the door looking at him expectantly. Cui Jiuming shook his head slightly. Cui Chengru almost fell down, but thanks to Lao Wang's hold
.The whole Cui family was crying like ghosts and wolves howling, and all the servants who obeyed the orders in the inner house had changed a lot of rules and worked more seriously than before.
Cui Jiuming stayed with his father all the time. Chun Yuyi, who was specially sent to invite him from Louguan overnight, closed his eyes and put one hand on Cui Chengru's veins: "It's nothing serious, the old shopkeeper just suffered a temporary illness."
He was so angry that he fainted. He will naturally get better after a few days of cultivation."
As soon as Chun Yuyi left, Cui Chengru got up from the bed and said, "Tell me, what are you going to do with us, Mr. Su?"
Liu Che also knew that Cui Jiuming had gone to Su's house, but Liu Che did not take any action. It was not that he believed that Su Ren could withstand Cui Jiuming's bullying, but that he believed in the plan proposed by Su Ren. In Liu Che's heart, everything
Everything is for the victory of the conquest of the Huns. As long as Su Ren can guarantee that the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce will not act recklessly during the conquest of the Huns, Liu Che can temporarily let Cui Jiuming and his gang go.
Su Kai stood respectfully in front of Liu Che with no expression on his face. He was almost the same as Liu Jiqing. He had faithfully carried out Liu Che's orders over the years and continued to grow the power of Heibingtai. Those who knew the inside story were serious.
The most terrifying thing in the whole court is this humble advice doctor. Although the official position is not big, it is pervasive. Sometimes what you say to your concubine in the middle of the night will come out of Liu Che's mouth the next day. Such things have already happened.
Not the first time.
"The news came out from the Cui family that Cui Chengru was critically ill, and Cui Jiuming was also crazy. The Cui family was in chaos. Cui Jiuming's incompetent brother Cui Jiu was temporarily in charge. Yesterday, Cui Jiuzai had a fight in Chunfeng Tower to compete for a singer.
Being captured by Jing Zhaoyin, it can be said that the Cui family has no one in charge for the time being, and the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce is also worried."
Su Kai said so many words in one breath without any annotation or judgment. He said it just like the words written on the slip. Liu Che did not raise his head: "Let Jing Zhaoyin lock that Cui Jiuzai for a little longer, and then take a look."
The Cui family’s reaction.”
"promise!"
"In addition, you asked the people who stayed in the Cui family to pay more attention to this Cui Jiuming. Is he crazy? Why don't I believe it so much!"
"promise!"
Su Kai agreed twice, and seeing that Liu Che had no intention of speaking anymore, he bowed and left the room. As the war approached, Liu Che had more and more memorials in front of him, and he had to rest very late every day, especially today's memorial.
More. Meng Fangtian has already started to raise food and grass. The money was borrowed from Dahan Bank. In fact, Liu Che plundered it from people in the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce, so Liu Che didn't feel much about the money and spent it extra generously.
.
When Su Ren came in, Liu Che was still immersed in reviewing the memorial. Su Ren handed the food box in his hand to Liu Jiqing, then sat opposite Liu Che and watched Liu Che busy. After a while, Liu Che asked: "Is Cui Jiuming really
crazy?"
Su Ren took a deep breath: "I don't know. He was fine when he went to my place a few days ago. But when he heard that he went crazy when he went back, he cried to everyone he caught. He looked miserable."
Liu Che finally raised his head and glanced at Su Ren: "How can you say that he is also your friend, but you are so cold-blooded?"
Su Ren smiled: "We are partners, not friends yet. If His Majesty wants to deal with him, I am willing to take the lead. I know where his family hides his money, and I will definitely be able to plunder all his money. One person
There won’t be any children left.”
Liu Che smiled: "Am I so unbearable?"
"This has nothing to do with being miserable, it just depends on whether your Majesty needs money?"
"If I really need it, I might as well go to your house. Your family's money is no less than that of Cui Jiuming's family."
"Hahaha..." Su Ren laughed loudly: "If that happens, I will go crazy!" (To be continued)
