Chapter 511
At noon on the second day, as one of the best restaurants in Xiamen, the Binjiang Building has been chartered, and now Yang Feng, the highest official in Fujian, is wearing a regular uniform and standing in front of the door of the Binjiang Building, smiling and greeting the maritime merchants who came to the appointment.
"Hongyi Gong has been looking up for a long time!"
"Boss Ning, hello!"
"Boss Bai, Boss Huang, hello!"
Facing Yang Feng, who was standing at the door with a smile on his face and took the initiative to greet him, Hong Futong and the other five family heads were a little surprised, the dignified Marquis of Jiang Ning, the governor of Zhengnan actually took the initiative to stand at the door to greet them, if this was spread out, they would be too face-saving. In the future, they can also say that they can bounce with others, see it, the dignified Governor of Zhengnan, Jiang Ninghou, invited them to the banquet and personally greeted them at the door, which is completely cheering them up.
Thinking of this, many people's faces showed a look of pride, and even a few people began to mumble in their hearts, it seems that Jiang Ninghou, who is famous on weekdays, is nothing more than that, don't look at the reputation of Nuoda in recent years, and now it is not that he has put down his body and asked us.
Not to mention the various states of the people, after welcoming everyone into the Binjiang Building, everyone began to sit down separately. As the master and the most noble Yang Feng naturally sat in the first seat, as the oldest and faintly the head of the six major maritime merchants in Fujian, Hong Futong sat at the bottom left of Yang Feng, as the head of the Ning family, he sat at the bottom right of Yang Feng, and the rest of the people were very skilled in finding their own actions and sat down.
The table was a large round table, and when everyone sat down, the table was already full of dishes, and behind each one stood a maid. These maids are carefully trained by the restaurant to serve distinguished guests, all of them are young, beautiful, smart and clever, and after seeing everyone sit down, they have stepped forward to pour wine for everyone.
"Come ......"
Yang Feng took the lead in raising it and was laughed at everyone: "This generation is this Hou respects you, today we meet for the first time, let's not say anything else about this first glass of wine, cheers!" ”
The dignified Jiang Ninghou toasted who dared not to give face, and everyone naturally raised their wine glasses with a smile on their faces and drank it all.
"This second glass of wine, Ben Hou wishes all the bosses a prosperous business and a prosperous source of wealth!"
"Cheers!"
The second glass of wine had just been drunk, and then Yang Feng raised the wine glass full of fine wine, "This third glass of wine, Ben Hou still wants to say sorry to you in advance, if there is anything offended by Ben Hou later, I hope you don't be surprised!" Come...... Cheers! ”
Hearing Yang Feng's words, many people's faces immediately changed slightly, and they couldn't help but look at Hong Futong who was sitting on Yang Feng's left, but Hong Futong raised his wine glass again without changing his face and said with a smile: "Hou Ye is too polite, you are the Marquis of the Ming Dynasty, and you have a heavy army, we businessmen don't have that qualification to offend you even if we want to offend you." ”
Yang Feng's eyes flashed, and he nodded, "Okay...... Hongyi Gong said well, come ...... Let's drink this cup together! ”
"Cheers!"
After three glasses of wine in a row, Yang Feng and most people naturally did not change their faces, but Hong Futong, as an old man over sixty years old, was a little unbearable to drink three glasses of wine in one breath. A hint of flushing appeared on his face, and he said apologetically to Yang Feng: "Master Hou forgives me, the old man is old and can't drink anymore, I'm afraid I can't drink with you anymore, but if the uncle is interested, you can let this group of people next to you drink with you, and the old man guarantees that they can definitely accompany you to drink to your heart's content!" ”
Yang Feng waved his hand: "What did Hongyi Gong say, how could Ben Hou be the one who forced them to drink, today Ben Bo invited you to come, first, to get to know our Fujian merchants, and secondly, I want to be a peacemaker, and match the little things that happened between you and Governor Xia, I don't know if you can give Ben Hou this face?" ”
When everyone heard this, they really didn't have a good feast, and they couldn't wait after just three glasses of wine, many people sneered in their hearts, and they began to be silent one by one, Hong Futong closed his eyes and seemed to be closing his eyes to recuperate, and everyone didn't speak.
Yang Feng's gaze swept around everyone, taking in everyone's expressions, and his heart immediately counted, and the smile on his face began to converge.
He took a lobster, put it on the plate in front of him and began to peel the shrimp skin, and said slowly while peeling: "Yesterday, Libenhou heard from Governor Xia that you found him a few days ago and hoped that the imperial court would continue to ban the sea, but was rejected by Lord Xia, and you were a little unhappy after being rejected, so you wanted to coerce Lord Xia to organize a business boycott, is that so?" ”
"Never!"
Everyone's heads shook like rattles, and Ning Yao even said, "Master Hou misunderstood, we definitely didn't say this." Lord Xia is the governor of a province, I can't wait for a businessman, how dare I threaten the court officials, this is a big crime! ”
"Oh...... Really? ”
"That's true, it's true, even if I eat the heart of a bear and the leopard gall, I don't dare to be so bold!"
"Hmm...... It seems that Lord Xia has misunderstood you. ”
Yang Feng nodded, used chopsticks to dip the peeled lobster into the soy sauce on the plate and put it into his mouth, with a satisfied look on his face, and praised, "Yes, the lobster here is quite authentic!" ”
After eating this lobster, Yang Feng wiped his hands with a napkin and smiled at everyone: "It seems that Ben Hou really misunderstood you, and Ben Hou was startled yesterday, and I thought that you really wanted to ignore the overall situation of the imperial court, instigate businessmen to boycott the market, disrupt the civil order, and plot against you!" ”
Hearing this, Hong Futong, who was originally silent with his eyes closed, couldn't help but open his eyes after jumping a few times, but everyone at the table gasped in their hearts, who said that this Jiang Ninghou is just a martial artist who dances with knives and sticks, look at the big hat of the other person who is called a skill.
Speaking of this, Hong Futong can't pretend to be deaf and dumb, he sat up straight and said: "Hou Ye said this old man but he didn't dare to be, although the old man has a thin family, and on weekdays, thanks to the surrounding fathers and villagers, he can afford to shout Hongyi Gong, but he never has such a great ability to make all the businessmen in Fujian Province boycott the market, this matter also hopes that Hou Ye Mingjian, otherwise if there is a real strike in the future, wouldn't it make the old man and others suffer injustice." ”
"And I have been wronged." Yang Feng was almost angry, that is, the six families in front of him, before the lifting of the sea ban, had occupied eighty percent of Fujian's overseas trade, and the silver they earned every year could be described as a lot of money, plus they had been camping in Fujian for hundreds of years, and they had already firmly rooted their roots here, especially in front of this Hong Futong, who had faintly become the head of the six, if they decided to strike the market, it was really not a difficult thing, but this one was good, he opened his eyes and said such nonsense, did he really treat Lao Tzu as a child?
