Looking at Hong Anque, who was leaving the room with heavy steps, Hong Futong stood up and said lukewarmly to everyone: "Okay, the old man is what he says, and he will naturally hand over those shops to you in two days, and now I also ask Brother Bi to fulfill his promise and send my unsuccessful dog away." ”

The man surnamed Bi smiled slightly, also stood up and arched his hand: "That's natural, Hongyi Gong can rest assured, Linglang's affairs are on us." ”

Hong Futong nodded: "In this case, the old man still has to deal with some things, so I won't accompany you." ”

After speaking, Hong Futong walked out the back door.

"Hongyi Gong, please take care of yourself!"

After seeing Hong Futong leave, the man surnamed Bi and several other people also stood up to see him leave, and a man just wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the man surnamed Bi, "Go...... If you have anything to say, I'll go back first. ”

Hong Futong walked out of the lobby and came to the backyard, first sent someone to call the housekeeper Hong Qiang, and said with a serious expression: "These Zhejiang businessmen are not good, they not only want our shop, but even our way and people want to take it together, how can there be such a good thing in this world." You immediately command to go down and remove all the people and things on the list. After speaking, he took out a piece of letterhead from his sleeve and handed it to Hong Qiang.

"Yes!"

Hong Qiang took the letterhead and bowed in response, then carefully put the letterhead away, and then asked in a low voice: "Master, do we really want to hand over the young master to them and let them take it away?" ”

Hong Futong snorted coldly, and an angry expression appeared on his face: "This beast, originally the old man thought that after more than ten years of cultivation, he could already be on his own, who knew that he was so useless, and he beat people to death for a trivial matter, and it was in front of so many people!" Now it's okay, I'm afraid that our Hong family company will become the target of public criticism, if you don't get this beast away, do you think the government will let them go? ”

"But you can't hand over the third young master to those Zhejiang businessmen, these people don't have other skills, but if they pick up methods to corrode people's hearts, if they think they are second, then no one dares to call them first. If the young master falls into their hands, I am afraid that he will be damaged by them. ”

"Hmph...... If you can't bear even a little trick, the old man should have never given birth to this brute! ”

Hong Futong's resolute tone made Hong Qiang understand that he was really disappointed this time, and this was also Hong Anque's last chance, if he still couldn't become a talent after arriving in Hangzhou, the position of the head of the Hong family would be completely insulated from him.

"That's it...... Let's not talk about this brute. Hong Futong waved his hand, signaled to end the topic, and said with a solemn expression: "The old man only noticed today, we still underestimate these Zhejiang businessmen on weekdays, but I didn't expect them to put so many eyeliners here quietly over the years, Anque accidentally killed the surnamed Qiu, the old man didn't know about it, they even knew before the old man." Hey...... This really impressed the old man. ”

Although Hong Futong's tone was light, Hong Qiang knew that the head of the family who had followed him for most of his life was really angry. On his own turf, his son accidentally killed someone, but these guests who were guests at home knew the news before their own host, and they were slapping him in the face.

"There must be those people's eyeliner in the shopkeeper who is with An Que today, you tell Hong Gaofa that the old man doesn't want to see that person again."

Listening to the murderous intent in Hong Futong's words, Hong Qiang hurriedly said: "I understand, master." ”

Hong Futong's worry was correct, half an hour later, dozens of messengers with shackles in hand, led by a squad leader, came to Hongfu with an edict issued by Governor Xia Dayan, to take Hong Anque, after being told that Hong Anque's absence, the head of the team left in a huff, and at this time it was less than a quarter of an hour since Hong Anque's was sent out of the city.

"Master Hou, the lower officials are really incompetent, and they let that Hong Anquek run away." In the governor's yamen, Xia Dayan said with some shame to Yang Feng, who came to discuss things with him.

"You can't be blamed for that." Yang Feng waved his hand, "The Hong family has been in Xiamen Jingying for many years, and the relationship has long been intertwined, sending a person out of the city is too simple for them, and Hong Anqi is just an insignificant pawn, what if we let him go for the time being?" Now the most important thing is how to deal with those who come uninvited, and that is the most important thing. ”

Referring to these people, Xia Dayan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Xia Guan didn't expect that he would be able to collect the net by bringing down those six maritime merchants, but he didn't expect that there would be so many big fish behind them, and now the hard work we did before would be in vain." ”

"It's not in vain." Yang Feng said: "At least we have now recorded more than seven million taels of silver, and we have made a lot of money in addition to the capital." ”

Xia Dayan smiled and said, "Xia Guan has to congratulate the Hou Ye and make a lot of money." ”

Yang Feng smiled faintly: "The silver is all outside the body, what does Ben Hou want so much silver for." The reason why Ben Hou dealt with these six families was because they had become moths parasitic on Daming's body, and they would only lie on Daming's body and suck flesh and blood, but they never thought of doing their part for the country, just like those gentry who refused to pay taxes, these people were like a noose on Daming's body, if they were not cut as soon as possible, Daming would be strangled to death in the end. ”

Yang Feng's words can be described as very fierce in this era, scolding all the gentry into it, Xia Dayan agreed or opposed, and could only move the corners of his mouth very embarrassed.

Yang Feng glanced at him: "Lord Xia, don't blame Ben Hou for speaking straight, you are worried about asking yourself, is what Ben Hou said the truth?" Today, nearly sixty or seventy percent of the fields in the Ming Dynasty are all gathered in the hands of the gentry and wealthy households, and the fields in the hands of the people are becoming less and less, and the taxes of the entire Ming Dynasty are all supplied by these forty percent of the land, and this number is still decreasing, which also leads to the Ming Dynasty has become more and more overwhelmed, Ben Hou does not understand, are these people not afraid that one day the Ming Dynasty will no longer be able to support the collapse of the collapse? ”

In the face of Yang Feng's questioning, Xia Dayan was speechless.

Doesn't he understand this? No...... Even ordinary readers understand this truth, and as the governor of a province, he naturally knows better, but as a member of a vested interest group, he is born to protect this kind of interest, otherwise he will be rejected by this group, this is the law of the ass determining the brain.

"Okay, let's not talk about that." Seeing that Xia Dayan didn't speak, Yang Feng also felt very helpless.

It has been three years since he came to this time and space, and the more Yang Feng knows about the situation in this era, the more he feels. After more than 200 years of development, the Ming Dynasty has long formed a set of inherent rules, and it is very difficult, or even almost impossible to change.

Although Yang Feng has killed salt merchants over the years, cracked down on the Donglin Party with heavy hands, and established the guild of the Ming Royal Commercial Bank, he still feels that there is a lot of resistance, and this resistance is coming from all directions, unless he can shout the slogan of "fighting the soil and dividing the land into the land" like Taizu, completely overthrow everything and re-establish a new society, otherwise no one will have a problem, which also makes him feel a little depressed for a while. The Ming Dynasty is now like a seriously ill patient, what he has done is nothing more than to extend the patient's time for a while longer, as for whether this time is decades or a hundred years, no one knows.

Thinking of this, Yang Feng became a little excited. He let out a long breath and said self-deprecatingly: "Ben Hou knows that what Ben Hou has done over the years has offended many people, and those people can't wait to eat Ben Hou's flesh and drink Ben Hou's blood, but who can understand Ben Hou's hard work?" ”

Seeing that Yang Feng, who had always been high-spirited, rarely showed a frustrated and helpless appearance, Xia Dayan couldn't help but say: "Master Hou, what you have done is very admirable to the lower officials themselves, but now that the atmosphere of the national dynasty is like this, there is nothing to be done." ”

"Is that the ethos?" Yang Feng suddenly became angry, glared at him and scolded angrily: "This is the reason why they unscrupulously dig up the foundation of the Ming Dynasty? What is the benefit to everyone if Daming falls? Could it be that if someone else became emperor, their life would be much better than now? ”

"Lord Hou......"

Seeing Yang Feng's sudden anger, Xia Dayan couldn't help but feel speechless while opening his mouth, and he snorted for a long time before he said with a wry smile: "Master Hou, Xiaguan...... The lower official is ashamed! ”

"That's it, I can't blame you for this." Yang Feng, who came back to his senses, sighed lightly, "Lord Xia, you go back to do something, this time Hong Futong and those people have suffered heavy losses, and those Zhejiang businessmen have come to take advantage of the fire to rob, and things are getting more and more interesting." It's just that this fire is really so easy to take? Hey hey ......"

Listening to Yang Feng's sneer, Xia Dayan only felt a chill in his heart for some reason, and he intuitively felt that those Zhejiang businessmen who came to take advantage of the fire to rob and take advantage of the situation were probably stealing chickens and rice this time.

At this time, there are many chambers of commerce in the Ming Dynasty, but if you talk about financial resources, it belongs to Zhejiang businessmen as the most, they have built halls all over the country, there is also one here in Xiamen, it is a man surnamed Bi and a group of companions left Hongfu and came to the Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce here.

After the hall of the people, under the leadership of the maids, they came to a quiet courtyard, and the maids waited until everyone was seated, and then brought hot water and towels to serve everyone to wash and clean their faces, and then brought hot tea.

The man surnamed Bi took a sip of tea and breathed a long sigh of relief before he said to everyone: "I wonder what you think about today's events?" ”

The middle-aged man with a thin figure said disdainfully: "In the past, it was always rumored how the third son of the Hong family was so good, but when I see it today, it is just a vain." ”

"Isn't that good?" Another man in a lake-green robe smiled and said, "When such a person comes to our land, isn't it at our disposal?" As long as that kid from the Hong family arrives in Hangzhou, we have a hundred ways to deal with him, and it won't take more than a month to make him vomit out all the things in his stomach. ”

"You can't do too much." The emaciated man shook his head and said: "Although the Hong family has suffered a lot of vitality this time, according to my estimate, Hong Futong, the old fox, will not even leave a little backhand, I estimate that it will not take a few years for them to make a comeback." ”

"I don't think so!" The man surnamed Bi muttered: "After Yang Feng lifted the sea ban in Fujian this year, the maritime trade has become more and more prosperous, so that those merchants from Fusang and Nanyang have changed their routes to do business here, haven't you noticed that Xiamen has become prosperous today?" ”

"yes!"

Everyone nodded, and the man in the lake-green robe also agreed: "Three years ago, after coming down to Xiamen, Xiamen was still quite simple at that time, and it couldn't be compared with our Hangzhou at all, but yesterday and then I found that Xiamen is now much more prosperous, especially their wharf has expanded several times, and it is more spacious than ours, which is really a big surprise." ”

Someone next to him smiled and said: "Lao Mo, aren't you talking nonsense, if it weren't for the great change in Xiamen, the Chamber of Commerce wouldn't let us come here to fight the Hong family's idea." ”

"yes!" The man surnamed Bi echoed and sighed lightly: "It's just that when I saw it today, I found that although the kid of the Hong family is not successful, but the old man Hong is not simple, although we can take over their shop, but those roads all over Fujian are not so easy to take." ”

Everyone stopped talking after hearing this, although the Hong family and the other five seas borrowed more than five million taels of silver from them with many shops, and once they couldn't pay it back, they would use these shops in exchange, but everyone knew that the most valuable ones were not those shops, but the people in charge of the shops.

Those shopkeepers, partners and relationships in Beijing stores for many years are the most valuable assets, otherwise what is the use of having empty stores. The purpose of these people coming here this time is not only to receive those shops, but also the intricate network of those shops and the guys and shopkeepers of the shops, this is the purpose of their visit this time, but judging from today's contact, Hong Futong, the old fox, is not an easy person to deal with, and he has been pretending to be stupid.

Just when they felt soaring, the Hong Anque incident made them see a turning point, and this was the reason why they used their connections to help Hong Anque leave Xiamen.

The man surnamed Bi groaned for a long time, and his face became gloomy and uncertain: "Let's go tomorrow, if Old Man Hong is no longer interested, we can try to visit that Jiang Ninghou, Yang Houye!" ”

"Visit him?"

Everyone was shocked, you must know that now Yang Feng is in Daming, especially in the circle of literati and businessmen, his reputation is stinky, and now the man surnamed Bi actually said that he wanted to visit him, what did he want to do?

Seeing that everyone looked at him in surprise, the man surnamed Bi sneered: "You don't have to look at me like this, although the surname Yang is a strong advocate of opening the sea ban, what does this have to do with us?" If we can get things done, even if we cooperate with him, as long as we can get what we want, it will be worth paying some price. ”
