History chat group: I just want to make money

When Li Chengjiu was talking about things, the group had already started to get lively.

It turns out that Liu Guojing also received the electronic watch from his fourth brother.

He just drank some wine at the banquet and started to show off. Without a few words, the electronic watch was forcibly stolen by Li Bai.

Claiming that today is his birthday.

And this wristband is the best birthday gift he received this year.

Liu Guojing was so angry that he started looking through his personal profile in his poetry collection when he came back.

I didn’t expect that it would still be more than two fucking months before this guy’s birthday.

Ancient wear-Guo Jing: "Hey! Liar! Fourth brother..."

Martial Arts-Gao Xiaopang: "Hehehe, I made you squeak."

Entertainment - Nana: "Haha, ask him first if he can tell the time."

Ancient Wear-Guojing: "Damn it, I haven't found the clothes this guy promised to find for me yet. Take a watch from me first."

Rebirth - Fourth Brother Jiang: "It's okay. I'll pass it on to you tomorrow. It's not a good thing, it's a bargain."

Gu Chuan-Guo Jing: "Wow, oh, oh, fourth brother is the best."

Interpretation - Lee Seung-kyu: "Fourth brother, I received the watch. It's so handsome and very nice."

Gu Chuan-Guo Jing: "Xiaojiu is going too far!"

Martial arts-Gao Xiaopang: "Hahahahaha."

There was a lot of ridicule in the group.

Especially Xiaopang, finally got a chance to take revenge.

Li Chengjiu sympathized silently.

Then I touched the beautiful dial and felt happy.

at the same time.

Li Shouren's private residence is still lit with candles.

The four old men looked at each other.

Zhang Baogui lowered his head and said nothing, while President Li stood with his hands behind his hands and kept pacing on the ground.

"You dare to act rashly without thorough investigation. Don't you know who Li Chengjiu is? It's too late for others to hide, but it's better for you to drag us into the fire pit just for your personal vendetta."

After he came back, he never stopped talking.

Zhang Baogui was also annoyed by the nagging, and spat hard and said angrily:

"Damn it, when I get back, I have to break that unfilial son's legs!"

Seeing this, the three old men also complained one after another.

"What's the use of breaking your son's legs? Think about what to do first!"

"Yes, Li Chengjiu is a scoundrel, we shouldn't recruit him."

"That guy will retaliate. Who knows if we will get into any more trouble because of this in the future."

When Zhang Guoguo heard these words, he slapped the table violently.

"What? You have chosen yourselves very cleanly. Why didn't you say this when I gave you your share? Now you are starting to complain about me?"

"this……"

He was choked to silence.

But Zhang Baoguo said resolutely: "And you, Li Shouren, I just said he bought and sold by force. When did I say he was operating without a license and driving up prices? Aren't you looking for trouble!"

"Hey!"

It's okay not to say this. As soon as Li Shouren said it, his two thick gray eyebrows stood up instantly.

said angrily:

"You can use that stupid reason to yell at Li Chengjiu? Isn't it because you have a brain disease?"

"Then what? Your two items worked? Didn't you almost get beheaded?"

"Zhang Baobao! You'd better be more measured when you speak!"

"What's the point? I haven't given you the share of fine salt yet! Now that we've said that, I think it's better to break up and let everyone do their own thing from now on. No one will have a good time!"

"you!"

Li Shouren's beard trembled with anger, and a few strands of hair trembled out of his originally neat hair.

The other two old men could not sit still when they saw this.

He quickly got up and became a peacemaker.

"Okay, okay, you two, stop arguing. Since Li Chengjiu didn't hold on to us, it's a blessing in misfortune."

"That's right, precious. You'd better put aside your personal grudges. You can't defeat the prince."

"That is, if he is willing to do business, just let him do it. How much money can you make from a broken barbecue?"

"From now on, as long as we don't take the initiative to cause trouble, we can live in peace."

The two old men said something to each other, which made Zhang Baogui start to reflect.

Being scolded by Li Chengjiu in the street really left a shadow in his heart.

For this reason, he swallowed his anger and tried not to provoke this demon king again.

But who would have thought that this guy would actually start a business on the street.

When you think about how you have been in the business district for so many years, how easy is it to deal with a small vendor?

Suddenly there was a chance to breathe a sigh of relief, and he suddenly had the idea of ​​​​causing trouble for Li Chengjiu.

But at this time, I calmed down and thought about it carefully.

I am still too impulsive.

It is no joke that fame should not compete with officials.

I really don’t know where I got the courage at that time.

In the end, he could only shake his head, let out a long sigh and said:

"Hey! That's all, I, Zhang Guigui, am unlucky!"

After saying that, he stood up and bowed deeply to Li Shouren.

"Brother Li, I was rude today and said a lot of things I shouldn't have said impulsively. It's my fault. I hope you can forgive me for any offense I've offended."

Li Shouren saw that Zhang Baoguo had finally become more rational.

After all, there are no eternal enemies in the world, there are only interests.

Besides, the share of fine salt has not been obtained yet.

Since the other party has given a step, he must follow it.

"It doesn't matter, I'm a little impulsive today. Since we've said this, it's best to end today's matter here. We won't mention Li Chengjiu's matter again in the future."

The conflict was resolved and the atmosphere in the room finally relaxed a little.

He pressed his hand and asked a few people to sit down and talk.

After a while, Li Shouren saw that everyone had calmed down, so he took a sip of tea and said:

"There is news from the palace."

"What?"

The originally relaxed atmosphere became tense again.

As soon as these words came out, the hearts of several old men were lifted up.

Li Shouren waved his hand, "Don't be impatient yet, just listen to what I have to say."

It turns out that the Dayun Dynasty re-enacted a new fine salt dictatorship.

In previous years, the control of fine salt was through local government agencies to manage salt merchants, who would then distribute the salt to the market.

But after a few years, the results were unsatisfactory.

A large number of corrupt officials colluded with salt merchants for their own selfish interests, causing the price of fine salt to skyrocket, but the salt tax was pitifully low.

The national treasury on one side has no silver and cannot afford military pay.

On the other side, the people couldn't afford fine salt, so they cried out in lamentation.

For this reason, the Minister of Household Affairs had to draft a document proposing changes to the salt policy.

But who knew that this line of interest had already spread to the court, and the two groups of people stood at attention and refused to give in to each other.

Fortunately, the emperor is a sensible person.

I no longer listened to these old ministers whispering in my ears and forcibly promulgated the New Deal.

Beginning with the crackdown on corrupt officials, the position of salt merchant was abolished, and local government agencies implemented comprehensive control over fine salt.

However.

As soon as this policy came out, the entire court began to get ready to stir up trouble.

In order to prevent the incident from being exposed, those old guys who had benefited tried every means to hinder the advancement of the New Deal.

From Beiling to Xizhao, from Dongshu to Wenyuan.

The speed of advancement has been repeatedly hampered.

Because of the remote location of southern Xinjiang, this gave local salt merchants a chance to breathe.

However, sooner or later, the new policy of fine salt will fall on this land.

If you want to escape, you have to prepare in advance.

Li Shouren finished telling the whole story, took a sip of tea again, and then lowered his eyes to look at the others.

Several old men held their breath, each thinking.

Seeing this, Li Shouren coughed lightly and said:

"New policies are being implemented in various regions. All salt merchants must submit a license to sell salt, which is uniformly controlled by the local government. What do you think about this?

As soon as these words came out, several old men could not sit still and said one after another:

"What do you think? Without this fine salt business, how much money can I make in a year just by relying on the restaurants I opened?"

"Are you sure the news is true?"

"Humph, how about Qiu Xiuru, that sour scholar? Can he manage fine salt well?"

Li Shouren had already anticipated the reactions of several people.

He smiled softly, then stretched out a finger and said:

"Ha, so I am not very talented and I have an idea. I wonder if some of the old brothers are willing to cooperate with me."
