Daqin: Zulong Overheard My Rebellion Plan

Two days later, the merchant Ma Jianteng got into the donkey cart early in the morning and came towards Wuchenghou's mansion.

Still far away from the entrance of the alley, Ma Jianteng saw the iconic donkey carts of merchants parked on both sides of the alley.

"Horse shopkeeper?"

Hearing the voice, Ma Jianteng followed the prestige, and saw a man wearing a plain white long jacket like him smiling at him in the distance and cupping his hands.

Ma Jianteng also got off the donkey cart immediately, and bowed his hands to return the gift: "Shopkeeper Wang, it's been a long time."

Wang Yongting asked with a smile: "Master Ma is going to the Marquis of Chang'an's banquet?"

Ma Jianteng nodded helplessly and said, "Exactly."

Wang Yongting clicked the alley and said: "The shopkeeper of the horse will park the donkey cart on both sides of the road in this alley."

Ma Jianteng was startled: "This place is still half a mile away from Wuchenghou's Mansion!"

Wang Yongting shook his head and sighed: "Wang also knows that this place is far from Wuchenghou's mansion."

"But Wang just drove to Marquis Wucheng's mansion, but found that the carriage in front of him was already full. You and I can't block the road, can we?"

"In that case, shopkeeper Ma should not even think about going to the banquet, but think about how to deal with Ting Zu's questioning is the right way.

Ma Jian "Zero Nine Three" took a deep breath: "Is the front already full?"

"Didn't the banquet start at noon? There are still two hours left!"

Ma Jianteng thought that he had arrived early, but he didn't expect that the donkey cart in front had already stopped for half a mile.

I'm afraid there are thousands of people who came earlier than him!

Wang Yongting smiled casually: "After all, the Marquis of Chang'an invited me, how could I not come earlier?"

Is this a matter of coming early?

We made an appointment to eat at noon, but in the end, you may have rushed over just after the curfew ended.

This is too exaggerated!

Ma Jianteng complained wildly in his heart, but still ordered his servants to park the carriage at the side of the alley, and walked to Wuchenghou's mansion with Wang Yongting.

The further you go, the denser the flow of people.

By the time they arrived in front of the Marquis of Wucheng's mansion, the people were already as dense as a scenic spot during a holiday.

If you look around, it's all about heads!

Ma Jianteng clicked his tongue in amazement: "That's shopkeeper Liu, that's shopkeeper Li, hiss~ That's actually shopkeeper Ba Qing!"

"There are so many people here today!"

Which of these people is not a wealthy businessman with a net worth of more than a million dollars?

Among them, wealthy merchants like Ba Qing and Wu Zhi have tens of thousands of hired workers and servants under their command.

Now I am willing to wait here in the crowds and hardships!

Wang Yongting smiled casually: "There are not too many people."

"After His Majesty ruled the world, he moved 120,000 households of powerful and wealthy households to Xianyang City.

"Combined with the original luxury merchants in Xianyang City, there are about 200,000 households."

"How many people are qualified to come to the banquet today?"

"The Marquis of Chang'an's standard for identifying a powerful is much higher than His Majesty's!"

Looking at the densely packed heads in front of him, Ma Jianteng smiled wryly.

"Brother Wang, do you think we look like pigs waiting in line to be slaughtered?"

"No, we are not as good as pigs and sheep. At least pigs and sheep can run away when they see the butcher knife."

"But we have to take the initiative to deliver it to our door, and we even have to come earlier, for fear of leaving a bad impression on the butcher."

Wang Yongting and other nearby merchants were all silent.

Merchants are the most informed.

They had two days to inquire about information, so they naturally knew the news that Wang Ying led the disaster relief, and Xi knew the imperial decree issued by Ying Zheng.

In their view, Wang Ying summoned them to Marquis Wucheng's mansion today to kill them severely!

And now they are crowded in the alley, how are they different from pigs and sheep?

Wang Yongting sighed quietly: "Today's meal is quite expensive!"

"If you eat a meal, you have to cut off a few catties of meat."

Ma Jianteng said helplessly: "It's expensive, can you stop eating it?"

"You have to bite the bullet and eat it!"

The sun in the sky is getting hotter and hotter, and the atmosphere at the scene is getting more and more solemn.

Until the second quarter of the hour, the gate of the mansion on the side of Wuchenghou's mansion finally burst open.

Fan Kuai and Tie Dun, who were full of evil spirits, stepped out of the house.

Not long after returning from the battlefield, eyes that had not yet dispelled the murderous intent swept across the faces of the merchants, and all the merchants who looked at them couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

It's over, today's knife is definitely not light!

Iron Shield shouted in a deep voice.

"Pass to the Marquis of Chang'an."

"All merchants, please come to the mansion for a feast!"

Nearly 10,000 merchants immediately bowed and shouted.

"I'll wait, thank you Lord Hou!"

Nearly ten thousand merchants, led by their servants, entered the mansion cautiously like quails.

Bypassing the screen wall, passing through the vestibule, and entering the backyard, Ba Qing saw a large number of desks and rugs placed in front of a gazebo.

Without further words from the servants, Ba Qing was the first one sitting on the soft bed outside the gazebo.

Nearly 10,000 merchants sat down consciously according to their status according to their financial resources, age and status.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Wang Ying finally stepped into the backyard and sat down on the soft place in the gazebo.

Wu Zhi and others immediately stood up and cupped their hands.

"I'll wait, see Lord Hou!"

Wang Ying nodded slightly: "No need to be too polite, sit down."

"Iron Shield, spread the joy.

"Thank you Marquis!"

Nearly ten thousand merchants sat down in an orderly manner, and then saw a servant of the Minghou Mansion put the wooden plate on their table.

Look at the food on the wooden plate again?

To describe it in two words, it is Common!

If you use four words to describe it, it is commonplace!

Looking at Wang Ying again, there is a small hot pot in front of him.

At this moment, the charcoal fire was red, and Wang Ying was eating thin slices of mutton out of the pot, and he didn't want to say a word to them at all.

This huge gap once again gave all merchants a heavy blow.

Even if they are rich, what are they in front of the Marquis?

Sitting on Wang Ying's left hand side, Xiao He held up the wine cup, Zhoukou

"Thank you for your willingness to come to the Marquis's Mansion, drink and win!"

Wu Zhibao and the others hurriedly raised their wine cups and shouted at the same time.

"Drink wins!"

After drinking all the wine, Xiao He cut straight to the point and said, "I think you all must have heard about it..."

"The Yingyang Company needs to lead Yiyang disaster victims to build a straight road, and today Xiao is hosting a banquet for this purpose."

The agreed banquet for Wang Ying turned into a banquet for Xiao He.

But none of the nearly ten thousand merchants felt that something was wrong, they just looked at Xiao He with burning eyes, wanting to see how ruthless the knife was.

Xiao He continued: "To build a straight road, a lot of river sand, limestone, sandstone, rammed earth hammers, etc. are needed."

"The incident happened suddenly, and Xiao had no time to inquire one by one, so he invited all the wealthy merchants here to ask the price together."

"I wonder if there is any merchant who is interested in supplying what Yingyang Company needs?"

All the merchants looked at each other in blank dismay.

Didn't they let them take food?

This is not the same as the script they expected.

Who wouldn't want to do business!

The question is, will this business be paid in the end?

Xiao He said with a smile: "Everyone can rest assured that this time the purchase is made by Yingyang Company.

"This is a merchant's business. Yingyang Company should buy it at the market price."

Immediately, many merchants became interested.

"Mr. Xiao, the Bashu Sun family can supply rammed earth hammers to Yingyang Company."

"Mr. Xiao, my Liu family in Hanzhong can supply river sand!"

"Mr. Xiao..."

Hundreds of people spoke at the same time, and there was a lot of noise in the backyard.

Xiao He could only press down with both hands: "Everyone, please be quiet first."

"The project undertaken by Yingyang Company this time is a project of the imperial court, and the quality requirements for all objects are extremely high."

"Therefore, if you want to supply goods, you need to pay a deposit of 30% of the total price in advance."

After a pause, Xiao He added: "In the form of food."

Hearing this, nearly ten thousand people all looked at Xiao He in astonishment.

Ma Jianteng couldn't help but said: "This is not only food, but also supplies!"

"Marquis Chang'an's knife is too cruel!" 4.4

Wang Yongting also frowned: "The Marquis of Chang'an has acted like this, isn't he afraid of causing public anger?"

Xiao He also looked a little embarrassed.

Even he felt that his master was a bit too ruthless!

Although other dignitaries can also exploit merchants, every time they strike the knife, it is not painful, and they are stuck above the psychological bottom line of the merchants.

The emphasis is on a sustainable exploitation.

However, my master wants to kill these merchants directly!

Can they agree?

Listening to the gradually noisy voices outside the gazebo, Wang Ying put down her chopsticks and looked at the merchants with a calm expression.

"Wait, don't you want?"

"Or do you not recognize the reputation of the Marquis?"

Ma Jianteng and others clapped their hands together: "I'll wait, I dare not!"

We dare not question you, but we can not accept your exploitation!

A Qin Banliang wants to use our supplies without going out.

In addition to using our supplies, you still want us to hand over food, and you want us to take responsibility even more if something goes wrong?

If a businessman is easy to bully, he will bully him to death, right?

Even if I starved to death, smashed my head against a pillar, and died outside, it is impossible to agree!.
