Finest Servant

The merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang who were present were boiling up in an instant. These days, the status of doing business is low, and the contacts with the officialdom are extremely limited. Now this Master Xu Wei, the chief bachelor of Wenhua Palace, the number one talent in the world, and the minister of the Ministry of Household, has come in person, but it is for the sake of these businessmen.

President Yu hurriedly got up from the ground, Tao Dongcheng was also supported by Tao Wanying, and hurried to the door to greet him.

This Xu Wenchang came at the right time. Lin Wanrong looked at the eldest and smiled.

When Xiao Yuruo heard the arrival of Lord Xu Wei, she was surprised at first, but then worried. Even if Lord Xu Wei and Xu came, what would happen? Even if he admired Lin San's talent, he was also an official of the imperial court. This unanimous accusation against Lin San, he Can you be partial?

Xu Wei was dressed in a bright red official uniform, with a slight smile on his face, and his thin face concealed some majesty. He walked in slowly, followed by the governor of Hangzhou and dozens of officials from Zhejiang, who had just met before. .

"See Lord Shang Shu, see you all." President Yu hurriedly saluted respectfully.

"Student Tao Dongcheng, I have seen Master Xu and all of you." Tao Dongcheng also saluted.

Everyone knows that Xu Wei was the first advisor of the emperor's hidden residence in the past, and now he is the national pillar of the Dahua Dynasty. As long as it gets his favor, it will surely be just around the corner.

"Presidents, colleagues, please forgive me." Xu Wei nodded and smiled, helping everyone up.

When everyone got up, Xu Wei saw the swollen faces of Yu Tao and the two, and was startled: "Two presidents, what's the matter?"

President Yu knelt on the ground with a plop, and shouted: "Master Xu, you have to decide for me, and for my chambers of commerce in Jiangsu and Zhejiang."

Tao Dongcheng gritted his teeth, and also knelt down with President Yu: "Please let the adults decide for the students."

Xu Wei said curiously, "What's going on with the two of you, please get up and talk. You two are in charge of the two chambers of commerce in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and you are the leader of the merchants. What happened?"

Fatty Yu said with snot and tears: "Sir, it's all the family member of the Xiao family, Lin San—" He pointed at Lin Wanrong with his fat and thick fingers: "Not only did I insult the two chambers of commerce, but also beat up in public. I, Master Tao, and many people in my chamber of commerce have really humiliated the merchants all over the world, and I ask the adults to be the masters of the two of us."

Lin Wanrong scolded inwardly when he heard it, this is really shameless for Yu Fatzhang. Lao Tzu only beat you two, but when you said it, he turned into beating a bunch of people,

Shameless, still better than me.

Xu Wei snorted, glanced at Lin Wanrong, and then said to the two Taoists in shock: "President Yu means that this little brother beat you and Tao Gongzi and many people in your chamber of commerce?"

President Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Exactly, please let the adults decide for us."

Xu Wei said: "Don't be in a hurry, the old man will ask the matter clearly, and he will definitely decide with justice. President Yu means that this family Ding Linsan beat up President Yu, Master Tao, and many others, that is He beat up all of you in a crowd, didn't he?"

"Yes, yes, yes-" President Yu hurriedly shouted: "All the brothers in the meeting present can testify."

"A group of people beat up many people?" Xu Wei questioned, took two steps to Lin Wanrong, smiled and said, "Little Brother Lin, are these people telling the truth?"

Lin Wanrong has not spoken yet, but the eldest lady has already said: "Mr. Xu, today's matter is caused by my Xiao family, and has nothing to do with Lin San. All calamities are borne by my Xiao family."

Xu Wei looked at Xiao Yuruo and said, "Are you Miss Xiao?"

The eldest lady saluted, "It's the little girl."

Xu Wei looked at her and sighed: "Like, like, really like it."

The eldest lady glanced at Xu Wei in confusion, not knowing what Master Xu meant.

Xu Wei sighed and said, "Miss Xiao, has your mother, Miss Guo, been doing well all these years?"

Xiao Yuruo was stunned for a moment, this Master Xu called his mother Miss Guo, and seemed to recognize her mother, but where did you start?

Lin Wanrong knew a little bit, and when she saw the eldest lady in a daze, she lightly touched her sleeve. The eldest lady was startled, and hurriedly saluted respectfully: "Mother is all well, thank you for your concern."

Xu Wei sighed: "Miss Xiao, don't be surprised, I have had some contacts with Miss Guo in the past, and I admire Miss Guo's ingenuity very much. In the past, I had parted with Miss Guo in the capital, and it was more than twenty years ago. Zai. After seeing the old man now, but not knowing each other, it makes people feel deeply.”

When the eldest lady heard that Master Xu actually had a relationship with her mother, she felt somewhat comforted in her heart. She did not ask Master Xu to be partial, but asked him to be fair and selfless.

Xu Wei smiled and said: "Miss Xiao, although you are an old friend, but today, since someone sued your Xiao family, the old man can't be partial. You can only do things with integrity. Don't blame me, miss."

Xiao Yuruo hurriedly said, "The little girl has nothing else to ask for, but to ask the adults to be fair and selfless, her wish is enough."

President Yu and Tao Dongcheng were shocked when they first heard that the Xiao family was actually an old friend of Master Xu, and they were relieved when they saw that Xu Wei seemed to have no intention of favoring.

Xu Wei nodded and said to Lin Wanrong: "Little Brother Lin, are these two true or false? Did you gang up on them?"

"Group fight? No." Lin Wanrong said confusedly: "Master Xu, how can I fight a group of people by myself? Even if I have three heads and six arms, I can't do it."

Xu Wei nodded, turned to look at Fatty Yu and said, "President Yu, this Lin Sanyi crowd beat up many of you. Even if he has his hands, feet and limbs together, it's still difficult to do it. Did you remember it wrong?"

Sweat dripped from Fatty Yu's forehead. It was because he was too greedy. What a group fight, he hurriedly changed his tone and said, "My lord, it was Lin San who beat me first, and then beat Master Tao. can testify."

Tao Dongcheng also continued: "President Yu's words are all true, and the students are guaranteeing their lives."

Xu Wei said: "That's not a group fight, it's a mutual fight, right or not?"

This time, Fatty Yu was a good student, and hurriedly said: "Sir, it was Lin San who took the lead. We were beaten by him before we fought back."

"That's it, Lin San, have you ever beaten the presidents?" Xu Wei turned to Lin Wanrong.

"It's not about beating, it's just a simple discussion. Anyone who knows me knows that I have always liked to 'convince people with virtue'." Lin Wanrong said shamelessly.

Shopkeeper Li immediately jumped out and said, "What nonsense, you beat President Yu and Young Master Tao, we saw it with our own eyes, do you still want to argue?"

Xu Wei nodded, but his voice increased a lot: "Lin San, do you know the crime? Why did you beat the two presidents?"

Lin Wanrong hadn't spoken yet, but President Yu hurriedly said: "Master Xu, we are just discussing business issues with the Xiao family. If we don't get along, then Lin San will beat someone, and please ask the adults to investigate."

"Oh," Xu Wei said with a look of understanding: "President Yu, this is the boundary of Zhejiang, Lin San, a small family, without power and power, dares to beat you? It's too arrogant, and I can't forgive it. ."

On the other side, Liu Yue'e couldn't listen anymore and jumped up and said, "Master Xu, don't listen to their nonsense. It's because President Yu and the others bullied the market and bullied people too much, so Lin San just fought back in anger."

Liu Yue'e's series of cannons, how the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce coerced the Xiao family, how Tao Dongcheng helped Zhou to abuse, and how the Jinling Chamber of Commerce was subdued, all spoke out. She seems to be a rough man, but she is actually a good person. When it comes to how the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce is domineering and intimidating, it is a big book and a special book. When it comes to Lin Wanrong's beating, it means that Lin San is outraged and shoots out of righteous indignation, otherwise As a small family member, how could he beat these two prominent figures in court no matter how tyrannical he was.

Xu Wei's eyes narrowed when he heard this, unable to see what kind of attitude it was. Lin Wanrong is a smart person. In the few words that old man Xu asked, there is a lot of knowledge and mystery.

After listening to Liu Yue'e's description, Xu Wei frowned, looked at Fatty Yu and said, "President Yu, is there something wrong?"

President Yu hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand, my lord, I, the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce, have no intention of dominating the market. I just discuss with Miss Haosheng about business."

"Negotiate?" Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "How did President Yu negotiate? It is to let the Xiao family hand over the management rights of this province to Li, otherwise the Xiao family will not be allowed to operate in this Hangzhou, this is Yu What is the chairman's so-called negotiation?"

President Yu pursed his lips a few times, but did not dare to deny it.

Lin Wanrong clenched his fists to Xu Wei and said, "Mr. Xu, you are the Minister of the Household, so you naturally know the truth of this business. Business is the big plan for the people's livelihood in the world. Those with talent and skills need to have sufficient competition to manage it. Only in this way can we promote the rapid development of commercial affairs and prosper the trade of our Dahua. And like President Yu, for his own self-interest, he is short-sighted and uses various means to hinder the normal operation of others. If things go on like this, not only people in Hangzhou and Zhejiang will not be able to enjoy the latest products, Even the atmosphere of free business will be suppressed. This business thing is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Under such suppression, how can the management of Zhejiang Province improve? He is the chairman of the chamber of commerce, but he doesn't care about the merchants in the chamber. He is in sympathy with the chairman of the chamber and crowds out the Xiao family. Who gave him such audacity to allow him to bully others? Expanding trade and encouraging competition is the right way. Bullying and dominating the market is destroying the foundation of Dahua's business, and it must not be tolerated."

These remarks are eloquent, but they have raised this bullying and dominance market to the height of Dahua's management.

Xu Wei looked serious, looked at Fatty Yu and said, "President Yu, is this Lin San telling a lie?"

President Yu didn't dare to speak, Xu Wei glanced at Tao Dongcheng again and said, "What do you think, Young Master Tao?"

Tao Dongcheng didn't speak, but Tao Wanying defended her brother: "Master Xu, this Lin Sanyi sent nonsense, framed my brother, and asked the master to decide—"

Xu Wei snorted heavily: "If you don't say anything, then it's true that Lin San beat people, but it's true that you bullied the market?"

Everyone dared not speak, Xu Wei sighed: "Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the foundation of our Dahua economy, the granary of the world's prosperity, today's Jiangsu and Zhejiang business annual meeting, the emperor attaches great importance to it, and specially appointed the old man to meet you. , to understand what difficulties you have in business management? I never thought that such a thing would happen, which is really disappointing to the old man."

With Xu Wei's reputation out there, his aura was no trivial matter, and everyone in the hall was silent and did not dare to speak.

Xu Wei snorted and said to the governor of Hangzhou: "Master Gu, according to my Dahua law, what should be the crime of beating others?"

Although Fatty Yu and Tao Dongcheng are the presidents of the Chambers of Commerce in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, they are non-governmental organizations. Lin Wanrong beat these two people, but they were not even beating court officials, at most they were beating gentry.

"According to my Dahua law, those who beat people in public will be punished with a cane, or in prison. Judging from the situation in which Lin San beat the two presidents, at least 200 cane punishment is required." Gu Da Ren said.

"Bullying the market and disrupting business operations, how are you punished?" Xu Wei said again.

"According to the laws of Dahua, those who deceive and dominate the market will be fined and confiscated of official property, and in severe cases will be sent to the army and wandering." The governor of Hangzhou said.

Fatty Yu's face was pale, and Tao Dongcheng gritted his teeth and did not speak. The crime of disrupting the business was not trivial. The two are used to running rampant in Jinling and Hangzhou, why has anyone felt sorry for them? Right now, Xu Wei was showing no mercy at all, and he attacked with heavy punches, catching both of them by surprise.

The eldest lady hadn't spoken for a long time, but after listening to Xu Wei's words, she was overjoyed. She couldn't help but glance at Lin San, only to see him smiling, as if she had already made up her mind.

Xu Wei sighed and said, "Lin Sanshang is okay to say, President Yu and Young Master Tao are the pillars of my great China, and the rumors of bullying the market have not yet formed a fact, Lord Gu, according to your opinion, how should this matter be? Is good?"

The governor of Hangzhou said: "My lord, in my humble opinion, the two presidents Yu Tao should not be in the first place, and Lin San beat people later, but they are all at fault. It is better to let the three of them be clear about right and wrong, reflect on it, and think that Ring."

This Hangzhou governor obviously understood Xu Wei's meaning, and this method is the most peaceful. In fact, if the truth was to be discussed, it would be inevitable for Lin San to play the board, but the two presidents were not to blame.

Xu Wei smiled slightly and said, "So, what do the two presidents think?"

Fatty Yu didn't dare to speak, Tao Dongcheng gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency is so kind, the students don't dare to say more. It's just that Lin San beat the students and President Yu today. Of course I can't care, but he took me to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Where are the chambers of commerce in the two places? Today, the adults do not care about our fault, and the students are very grateful, but the Xiao family despised the crimes of the chambers of commerce in the two places. In the presence of me, I will have a fair competition with the Xiao family."

"Oh?" Xu Wei said with great interest, "Compared to what?"

"Wen fighting and martial arts!" Tao Dongcheng gritted his teeth.
