Feng Ziying couldn't help but sneer in her heart, Wang Xifeng looked like she was either obsessed or possessed.
Not to mention other things, just talking about the capital, do you know how much capital it costs to do this business with the Tatars? Can the Jia family afford so much capital now?
Or are you still thinking about your own home?
Feng Ziying doesn't believe that Wang Xifeng is so ignorant of himself. Times have changed. Is his home the same now as it was two years ago?
"Second sister-in-law, I have to say, I'm afraid this business is not that easy to do." Feng Ziying became a little colder, "If you don't have a capital of three to five million silver, you don't even have to think about it.
Having this capital also involves having the qualifications, and registering with the Ministry of Household Affairs. In addition, in which town do you do business with the Tatars, and what kind of business do you do? Have you ever dealt with each town? Well, they are all from
This is my first time here, but this time it’s really different.”
Faced with Feng Ziying's reminder, Wang Xifeng was confident. Perhaps because of a few more drinks, her cheeks became more and more red, and her chest became more and more undulating. She smiled seductively: "Da Lang, don't treat my sister-in-law as if she is nothing."
As a woman who knows how to do things, of course I understand that this kind of business is not that easy to do. My sister-in-law also understands how deep the water here is, but she didn’t say that I have to start from scratch."
Feng Ziying was startled, looked at the other party, and then looked at Jia Lian who was drinking silently next to her, and then hesitantly said: "Second sister-in-law, I don't understand. I haven't heard that there is such a business in the house."
"Dalang, my sister-in-law won't play charades with you anymore. Someone is willing to partner with our family to do this business. They turned out to be familiar with the business and are used to doing business here. They have a lot of capital. Later, because of something wrong, they were arrested.
We have been in contact with them for the past few years. In Ping'an Prefecture, aren't they going to adjust the registered merchants in this town again? We'll go find someone from the Ministry of Revenue to smooth things over. There's no big problem. The key is
It's over there in Bian Town,..."
Ping'an Prefecture? Feng Ziying was surprised. It seemed a bit familiar. This place seemed to be mentioned in the book "Dream of Red Mansions". It was the same as Tienwang Mountain, but she didn't have much impression of it. Where was it?
Seeing that Feng Ziying was a little confused, Jia Lian added, "Da Lang, Ping'an Prefecture is an old place name from the early days of this dynasty. It is on the side of Datong, next to Pingyuan Fort, and on the other side of Huai'an City. It is commonly known as Ping'an Prefecture..."
Feng Ziying had some impression. It was the junction area of Datong Town and Xuanfu Town. Pingyuan Fort is the easternmost fortress settlement in Datong Town. Further east is Shanfang Fort and Dukou Fort in Xuanfu Town, and to the south is Huai'an City.
, to the southwest is Hunyuan City, and to the southeast is Yuzhou City, which can be called a first-class important place.
"Brother Lian, where have you been?" Feng Ziying was a little surprised. If he wanted to get there from the capital, he would say whether it was far or close, but for Jia Lian, he was afraid that it would be a far journey.
"Well, the master asked me to go there." Jia Lian said a little bit.
"Uncle Shi Shi?" Feng Ziying was even more surprised. Is Jia She also involved? Or is he joining forces with Wang Xifeng? Well, Wang Ziteng is the governor of Xuanda, and he happens to be in charge of Datong Town, Xuanfu and Shanxi Town. I'm afraid Jia She will
I took a fancy to this.
Judging from Jia Lian's appearance, it seems that she is not very interested in this business, but Wang Xifeng is very interested, and her eyes are almost burning. I don't know who got her interested and made her feel that this business is promising.
It's over.
"Dalang, to tell you the truth, we haven't been doing this for a day or two together. I also have some acquaintances over there in Ping'an Prefecture. You also know that my second uncle is now the Governor of Xuanda, and is in charge of that place.
Regarding the matter, our trustee at the Ministry of Revenue has also cleared the air, so it can be said that everything is ready..."
Wang Xifeng's words made Feng Ziying calm down. If the Ministry of Revenue has cleared the air, Jia She also has acquaintances in Ping'an Prefecture, which is to the east of Datong Town. In addition, there is also Wang Ziteng to take care of it. Wang Xifeng is so confident in this business.
, it really makes sense, but what are you doing to yourself?
"Second sister-in-law, since you, Shi Shibo and Wang Gong have already established a way, why do you need to find my younger brother? My younger brother doesn't have such a big capital to get involved. This is a business that can easily cost more than one hundred thousand taels..." Feng Ziying
said with a smile.
Wang Xifeng said sternly: "Da Lang, my sister-in-law also said that everything is ready, but we only need Dongfeng. We are not familiar with Beidong Road in Datong Town, so we need your help to pull the strings. My sister-in-law knows that your home is in Datong."
The land there is familiar and the connections are wide, so people also come to me and say, if your father comes out to say hello, everything will be perfect."
Feng Ziying has stayed in Datong for so many years and knows that the defense of Datong Town is divided into eight groups. Each group is responsible for a general. However, although these generals have great power, they do not participate in such exchanges and have no power to interfere.
This is the right thing to do. Not to mention the general, even the deputy commander-in-chief has no power to interfere. The power over such matters is firmly in the hands of the guarding commander-in-chief.
Of course, these wealthy businessmen registered with the Ministry of Household Affairs are all well-heeled. They are more or less connected to the big bosses in the capital, and at worst, they can be connected to the Chief Envoy or the Provincial Envoy of the Provincial Government.
The Secretary and other important officials are on the line, and the General Soldier is nothing more than just playing around with some matters that have nothing to do with the principles. It is convenient. Of course, they will also give you a share of what you deserve. It is convenient for everyone.
As for asking for a general, that's a bit unbelievable.
Her thoughts suddenly changed, and Feng Ziying said slowly: "Second sister-in-law, my father is no longer the commander-in-chief of Datong. Second sister-in-law, don't you understand why this man is taking tea? Which person's business information is so closed, no?
Did you know that my father has gone to Yulin? Yes, my father has worked there for many years and must have some connections. But second sister-in-law, let me be honest, if you have just said this, then there is no need to find any help at all.
That's it, if you really want to find someone, just go to Qi Shibo directly, why bother spending more favors?..."
Feng Ziying spared a sentence, unless you have other activities and want to bypass the commander-in-chief.
Wang Xifeng is a woman of Taoism. Even though she has some knowledge, she obviously doesn't understand the specific methods involved.
I don't understand at all what the responsibilities and authority of the general soldier and the general's garrison are, but there is no doubt that the chief soldier has the highest official position.
Father Feng Ziying is no longer the commander-in-chief of Datong, so naturally he can no longer control Datong. Instead of spending so much time looking for connections and selling favors to get rid of some generals, it is better to go directly to the commander-in-chief.
As for the current chief military officer of Datong Town, Wang Xifeng also knows that Qi Jianyao is the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Xiangyang. He rejected Feng Tang, who once wanted to return to the post. He has an irreconcilable relationship with his second uncle, so he can change his position from the left army.
He had nothing to do in the Governor's Mansion and was transferred to the post of Chief Soldier of Datong Town.
Wang Xifeng was obviously a little drunk after this meal, probably because he was in a high mood. He was helped back by Ping'er and Feng'er, but Jia Lian was a little unhappy.
Feng Ziying also knew that he shouldn't be too involved in this family's affairs, but to be honest, second brother Lian was a really nice person and regarded himself as a "confidant". He really couldn't do anything about it.
"Brother Lian, will you come with me for a walk?"
Feng Ziying is now qualified to let Jia Lian accompany her, and Jia Lian doesn't feel anything wrong at all.
"It seems that this second sister-in-law really wants to make a living like this, but I don't know why I suddenly remembered this. Uncle Shi Shi has never seen such an intention before?" Feng Ziying was very curious.
"Dalang doesn't know anything. He's not my father's disciple. Hey, does Dalang know Sun Shaozu?" Jia Lian also sighed and said quite helplessly while accompanying Feng Ziying.
"Sun Shaozu?" Feng Ziying thought for a while. The name was familiar, but she really didn't recognize it.
"This Sun family is originally from Datong. It can be said that he also comes from generations of military generals. Although this guy is rude and uncivilized, he has a lot of strength. It turns out that he was also a man who was not satisfied with his father's name, and then went there after being an empty commander.
In Xuanfu Town, he was dismissed from his official position due to an accident and came back in despair. Some time ago, he came to lobby his father, saying that the border trade between Xuanfu and Datong was about to change merchants. If they could open up the joints, he would go
Find someone to do this business, and you can earn up to 180,000 taels of silver a year by keeping it. Our family can also get 30,000 to 50,000 taels of silver every year, and we don’t need to pay. We just need to help open the joints..."
Feng Ziying suddenly realized, "How did the second sister-in-law get involved?"
Jia Lian smiled bitterly: "How can your second sister-in-law hear about money? When she heard that she had no money, she could earn 30,000 to 50,000 yuan a year. She couldn't bear it, so she volunteered to open up the joints. That's when it came to me.
My father also forced me and Sun Shaozu to go to Ping'an Prefecture. This guy does have some skills. Two businessmen are willing to do this business with him. They just need to open up the joints..."
"What does second brother Lian mean?" Feng Ziying was sure there was something fishy here. He wanted to see how Jia Lian chose.
If it is really a serious border trade, with the care of Governor Xuanda, the Ministry of Revenue can also make a good deal, and if the border merchants contribute the capital, it can basically be done. Otherwise, it is just a matter of communicating with Qi Jianyao. Where is the need?
What kind of bullshit general are you looking for, unless you just want to do some business of licking blood from the edge of a knife?
"Da Lang, to be honest, Brother Yu feels that there are some risks here. Brother Yu thinks that those businessmen are sneaky and they do have money. Brother Yu has seen two boxes being carried out casually, which are at least tens of thousands of taels. Sun Shaozu's
Brother Yu knows this and is always a bold taker of danger. Brother Yu is afraid that if there is some illegal activity, he will not be able to escape in the future."
Feng Ziying nodded, Jia Lian still had some sense, "Then you didn't talk to Uncle She Shi and Second Sister-in-law?"
"Why didn't you say anything? I even got a beating from your uncle, and your sister-in-law also scolded me like crazy. She just said that I have no courage and will never make a fortune in my life..." Jia Lian was also a little drunk.
He said indignantly: "There must be a person, Brother Yu, who wants to make them understand that Brother Yu can also make a fortune, but Brother Yu dare not do such things."
