Du He glanced at Changsun Chong and suddenly seemed to understand something, so he said, "Come with me!"
After a while, Du He welcomed Changsun Chong to the conference room of Dream Group and served him tea.
Changsun Chong felt at home, and was a little embarrassed to speak. After dilly-dallying for a long time, he finally said: "Teacher, actually, I came to you...to apologize to you."
"Oh? Apologize. Why are you sorry for me?" Du He asked curiously.
Changsun Chong said: "Actually, the thing is like this. During this time, there was a big businessman from Ningzhou named He Du. He had a huge fortune and spent a lot of money. He needed to buy five million briquettes at a time, and my Changsun family's
There are not so many in the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine, so I asked you to buy three million... After I went back, I was scolded by my father. My father has always taught me to be honest and not to deceive friends, let alone deceive.
Teacher... So, I decided to change my ways and tell you the truth. I don’t want these three million briquettes. Teacher, why don’t you sell them to He Du directly, five million briquettes at a time. In this way,
Wouldn’t it just solve the recent miserable situation of Lantian Coal Mine not being able to sell briquettes?”
What Chang Sun Chong showed was sincerity.
Those who don't know really think that this guy has changed his past.
Unfortunately, Du He was already prepared.
He looked at Changsun Chong and asked funnyly: "So, you are doing this for my own good?"
"Of course, teacher, five million briquettes at a time is not a small amount. Think about it, if you sell the briquettes to He Du, wouldn't it mean that the people of Ningzhou will also be able to use the briquettes from Lantian Coal Mine one day?
, the whole Tang Dynasty will use your briquettes." Changsun Chong did not forget to draw a big cake for Du He.
Du He smiled and said: "Yes, it will be a matter of time. In that case, I will go find He Du. There is no need to return your three million briquettes to me. After all, you spent the money yourself."
Keep it for use."
Changsun Chong was very excited when he heard this: "No, no, no, teacher, I must give it to you. You don't have many briquettes hoarded now. I can't do such things to take advantage, otherwise I will be beaten to death by my father. You must
You have to promise, I will definitely return the three million briquettes to you."
Seeing this, Du He had no choice but to say: "Okay, my good disciple, it's rare for you to be filial. Let's do this. You can send back the briquettes intact within today, and I will refund all the money to you."
"
"Okay, okay, hahaha..."
Changsun Chong was overjoyed.
He was in a very happy mood.
I thought it would be a difficult matter, but I didn't expect that Du He would be deceived by just a few words.
Immediately, Changsun Chong happily returned to Chang'an City and told the other people in the anti-Duhe alliance the good news.
Everyone clapped and celebrated.
Afterwards, Changsun Chong led everyone, mobilized manpower, and hurried out of the city to the mountain col near the Dream Group.
There are three million briquettes he bought from Du He before. In order to avoid accidents, dozens of people were mobilized to guard here.
Changsun Chong got off his horse and was just about to let people start carrying the briquettes when he saw the middle-aged man who was responsible for guarding the briquettes running towards him and shouting: "Master, something big has happened!"
Changsun Chong's heart skipped a beat and he asked hurriedly: "What's going on?"
The man said: "Master... these briquettes are all broken!"
Um?
After Changsun Chong heard this, he couldn't help pushing the man away and rushed into the field himself.
When I saw it, I was immediately dumbfounded.
The briquettes placed on the ground can no longer be called briquettes, but piles of coal noodles.
Changsun roared angrily: "Du He, it must be Du He. It was Du He who sold me the fake briquettes..."
An old man next to him said: "Master Changsun, I'm afraid Du He cannot be blamed for this matter. It seems to me that it rained heavily last night and soaked the briquettes, and then it started to freeze again, so the briquettes were broken! Also,
This is a mountain valley where water easily accumulates. Look at the briquettes over there, all washed away by the rain coming down from the mountain..."
Changsun Chong turned around and asked in surprise: "It rained last night?"
This guy was so drunk last night that he had no idea what was going on.
Everyone nodded.
"Master Changsun, not only did it rain last night, it also rained very hard!" someone said.
Plop.
Changsun Chong's face turned pale and he fell to the ground.
The upper part of the briquettes was soaked by the heavy rain, but the lower part was soaked in puddles and was now frozen and cracked.
Looking at the three million briquettes, most of them were destroyed, and only a few were still intact. If they were given to Du He, Du He would definitely not agree.
At this time, someone came to report and said: "Master, the two million briquettes we piled in the north of the city have all been destroyed."
It turned out that in order to deliver the briquettes to He Du as quickly as possible, Changsun Chong also chose a depression similar to the one in front of him in the north of the city. Those briquettes were made by the coal mines of Beast King Mountain and other large companies, and the quality was far inferior to the briquettes produced by Lantian Coal Mine, so the entire army
It was destroyed, not a single one was left intact.
Plop.
Changsun Chong fell to the ground.
"Young Master Changsun..."
"Quickly, take the young master back home."
…
Dream Group and Du He were not surprised when they heard the news.
Du He put down his teacup, stood up, stepped forward and patted Wang Laowu on the shoulder: "Old Wang, this is a beautiful thing... This is the package I gave you to go back to Yangzhou. You can take it with you.
Get on your way quickly."
As he spoke, he pointed to the courtyard outside.
In the yard, there is a carriage and a box, which contains one hundred guan of money. Not to mention returning to Yangzhou, it is enough to go around the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
Wang Laowu stared at the carriage, thought for a while, suddenly turned around, looked at Du He, and said, "Master Marquis, I have one more thing to ask for!"
"explain!"
Wang Laowu said with a serious face: "Master Hou, I don't want to go back. I want to... stay in Dream Group, stay with Master Hou, and serve him as hard as a dog or horse."
During this time, Wang Laowu traveled to Lantian Coal Mine and Dream Group. Everything in front of him was something he had never seen or heard before. As a businessman with a sensitive nose, Wang Laowu was naturally very excited, but he didn't know that Du He was worth following.
.
Now, Du He kept his promise and gave him the carriage and generous package. Only then did he understand that Du He was by no means the kind of person who broke his word.
Therefore, he made the decision to stay.
Du He didn't find it strange, and he believed that Wang Laowu still had his own merits. Among other things, he was quite courageous and his deception skills were top-notch.
So he nodded: "In that case, you can follow Zhang Du for the time being. It is not appropriate for you to show up in Chang'an City recently."
"Thank you, Mr. Hou, thank you, Mr. Hou!"
Plop.
Wang Laowu was so excited that he quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Du He.
