Chapter 805: Flip the Table!
"Hey, Brother Xu, they're coming. What do you think? I like this garden very much. β
In the huge and luxurious flower hall, several stoves are burning, and Xu Changqing is lying on a comfortable large soft couch with his eyes closed.
Zheng Chagu hid behind the floor-to-ceiling window, opened a trace of the curtains, and checked the movements in the small garden hall outside like a little fox.
Seeing that Wang Fuchun had already entered the door, she couldn't help but get excited and looked at Xu Changqing.
Rao is the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, the Zheng family, and Zheng Zhilong can be regarded as building a lot in his hometown Anping, but the Zheng family's mansion with a combination of Western and Western styles cannot be compared with this garden.
The main garden is the beloved son of the talented man Wen Zhengming, the architectural genius personally planned, the unity of heaven and man in China almost to the extreme, even in his life is also a proud work.
And Wang Fuchun is also quite enlightened, and he later purchased a large number of 'sky glass' from Haicheng through his connections and used it in it.
In addition, Wang Fuchun himself also has a deep knowledge of gardens, which is why he has reached this scale.
The Zheng family, whether it is a nouveau riche, is still far from the bottom.
"Sister, what do you like to have to do with my brother? Don't look at your brother, I look pretty decent now, but I'm actually poor. Force. I'm still thinking about eating your soft rice. β
Xu Changqing scratched his legs lazily, not in any energy.
"You-"
Zheng Chagu's lungs were about to explode, how could she have thought that this guy in front of her would be so shameless! The point is that she can't refute it for a while......
This garden, even if you think about it with her arrogant chest, it is definitely an astronomical amount, with Xu Changqing's background, it may be an exaggeration to not be able to afford it, but if you really want to buy it, I am afraid it will hurt your muscles and bones.
"Hmph."
"Surnamed Xu, I hate you to death!"
Zheng Chagu stomped her feet irritably, glared at Xu Changqing fiercely, and left quickly.
The corners of Xu Changqing's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
This girl, if she doesn't set some rules, she really can't cure her.
In fact, Xu Changqing knew very well that from the moment he entered this garden, this garden had already fallen into his pocket, and no one could snatch it away.
If he doesn't take over the garden, these salt merchants will have trouble sleeping, and I'm afraid they won't be able to eat.
At this time, there was a gentle knock on the door outside, and a soldier reported in a low voice: "Dashuai, President Wang of the Jinshang Chamber of Commerce is here......
Xu Changqing got up slowly, "Let him come in." β
"Yes!"
After a while, Wang Fuchun came to the room respectfully and gave a deep salute: "Xiaomin Wang Fuchun, I have seen the Hou Ye of Haicheng, and the Hou Ye is healthy." β
"Huh."
"Master Wang, you are too polite. It's evergreen and bothered, and I haven't thanked you yet. β
Xu Changqing didn't get up yet, he slowly fiddled with the tea set on the table and washed the kung fu tea.
At this time, kung fu tea has not really become popular, and rich and noble people do not pay much attention to tea, more just pay attention to the material, and make tea is just a simple brew.
Xu Changqing is actually not very proficient in kung fu tea, but he has some appearance, and this slow and methodical tea washing alone shocked Wang Fuchun.
It wasn't until Xu Changqing finished washing the tea and poured a cup for Wang Fuchun that Wang Fuchun came back to his senses and hurriedly saluted: "I have to see Master Hou's means today, it's really an eye-opener, an eye-opener." Tea can still be drunk like this. β
Xu Changqing said with a smile: "Master Wang, you and I are familiar at first sight, and it is polite to say this." Come, sit. Changqing was also about to talk to Wang Ye. β
Wang Fuchun's eyelids jumped, and he carefully sat down with only half of his buttocks, and obediently handed over the right to speak to Xu Changqing.
Xu Changqing was not in a hurry, the two drank two cups of tea, and then said: "Master Wang, Ming people don't say dark words, you two Huai salt merchants, it's a bit unauthentic." "Master Hou, this ......"
Wang Fuchun didn't think that Xu Changqing would be so straightforward, and the three souls were about to fly out of the seven spirits, and the whole person was a little bad, so he hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground: "Master Hou, you, why did you say this, the grass people, the grass people are really ......"
"Huh."
Xu Changqing waved his hand to stop Wang Fuchun, who was in a hurry to argue, and snorted coldly: "Master Wang, I, Xu Changqing, am grateful for your hospitality, and in addition, I am willing to tell you the truth at first sight." What's the matter, Wang Ye wants to be polite with me Xu Changqing and make a living? β
ββ¦β¦β
Wang Fuchun had calmed down at this time, cold sweat was like rain, and his whole body couldn't stop trembling.
He had long known that Xu Changqing was by no means a mortal and had the means to reach the sky, but he never thought that he still underestimated Xu Changqing......
Xu Changqing didn't bother to use those lowly carving insect skills at all......
Hurriedly swallowed his saliva: "Master Hou, grass people, grass people listen to ......"
Looking at the edges and corners of Wang Fuchun that were polished away in an instant, Xu Changqing also showed a smile: "Master Wang, I know you are unwilling, you are not reconciled."
However, everyone's eyes are bright, and the eyes of people all over the world are bright.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty hundreds of thousands of troops, the momentum is violent, almost like destroying the world, why, sweeping the two Huai lands, but only let go of the fat Yangzhou City?
Is the terrain of Yangzhou City dangerous?
Or is Yangzhou a strong soldier?
Or do you have the blessing of Daluo Immortal in Yangzhou?
Hehe. If you think so, Master Wang, then I, Xu Changqing, will report to the court, the Son of Heaven, and the Queen Mother like this! β
"Lord Hou......"
Wang Fuchun kowtowed like pounding garlic, "grass people, grass people......"
He looked and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, he just kowtowed desperately to express his surrender to Xu Changqing.
In fact, Wang Fuchun was afraid that he would come to Xu Changqing tonight, and what he was most afraid of was this matter.
He thought that he would come over to meet Xu Changqing tomorrow after testing Xu Changqing's attitude through other means.
After all, by then, both he and them will have more power to spare.
I never thought that those miscellaneous people couldn't sit still at all, and they were going to force him to go to Liangshan tonight......
However, Wang Fuchun is by no means a mortal, through Xu Changqing's words, he has already understood some of Xu Changqing's meaning, how dare he pick a thorn at this time?
Seeing that Wang Fuchun was sensible, Xu Changqing's smile was even worse, and he said, "Master Wang, you are a smart person." I, Xu Changqing, also like to work with smart people. Speaking of which, this thing is also human nature. Yangzhou is rich, but the military equipment is lax and slack, if you really want to hit the stone with an egg, that is my Ming sinner! β
"Forehead ......"
Wang Fuchun looked up at Xu Changqing.
found that Xu Changqing was looking at him with a faint smile.
ββ¦β¦β
Wang Fuchun couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, almost as if he had just been fished out of the water, he wanted to express his position, but he didn't know how to express it.
He thought that he had caught Xu Changqing's intentions, but at this time, he found out that ...... Xu Changqing was simply imaginative, and he shook the ground with a snap of his fingers, and he couldn't answer at all......
"Huh."
Xu Changqing smiled and took a sip of tea, "Master Wang, you two Huai salt merchants, you can't wait to eat my Xu Changqing's flesh and blood raw now, right?" β
"Master Hou, things, things may be misunderstood...... No! I don't know what other people think of the grass people, but, Master Hou, the grass people only have admiration for you, and they never have half a heart of disobedience. Master Hou, the grass people's family, more than ten generations have been engaged in the salt business, and they have always been in good order, and they have never overstepped more than half of them......"
Wang Fuchun kowtowed again like pounding garlic, how could he still have any scruples about any accomplices and allies, but he and the Wang family were picked out.
Xu Changqing also nodded appreciatively at Wang Fuchun, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, the one who knows the times is Junjiena." You have been eating the fattest fat in the world for 200 years, and it is time to save a soup for others to drink. β
ββ¦β¦β
Wang Fuchun's face turned pale, his lips trembled constantly, he raised his head slightly and hurriedly lowered it, obviously sorting out his thoughts.
Xu Changqing was not in a hurry, and continued to drink tea slowly.
In fact, Xu Changqing was still a little hesitant to communicate with Wang Fuchun, after all, this interest group was too huge.
If Wang Fuchun is not sensible and doesn't go to the Tao, Xu Changqing really doesn't have many good ways for a while, and he can't directly use force against them, then the impact will be too great.
However, Xu Changqing still underestimated Wang Fuchun!
The change in this attitude is even more transparent than Xu Changqing imagined.
To put it bluntly, the collapse of the Ming Dynasty started with 'flipping the table' and 'bad rules'.
In later generations, people said that 'Ming died in Wanli', not that it was unreasonable, but that this matter was evaluated from a macroscopic and huge perspective.
To put it bluntly, it makes sense, but it's too big and not solid.
The overall economic collapse of the Ming Dynasty did start from the Wanli Lord's meeting, but it was only the economy!
Even in the year of the Apocalypse, the Ming Dynasty still has the strength to compete with the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The real and complete collapse was still when Emperor Chongzhen was in it.
Chiguo said that it was the collapse of the officialdom order, and he directly ignored the rules and turned the table.
Think about it, in the Chongzhen Dynasty, there were more than a dozen Shoufu, dozens of military department books, including Shoufu, who killed when they said they would, what are the rules in this world?
On the night of the two islands that year, Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, which was even more ridiculous in the world, but there was no.
But when he turned his head, Inspector Yuan did not achieve his goal, but he cut him with a thousand knives......
How else is this thing played?
Who would dare to work for the court and bear the responsibility that should have been borne?
When the Ming Dynasty was from Zhengde, the imperial power was a little weak, and he was the master of power and art of cattle such as Jiajing Ye, and in the end he had to admit, 'He fought with those people all his life, and he barely got to a draw'.
What's more, is it the cold, naΓ―ve, and eager Emperor Chongzhen?
At this time, Wang Fuchun seemed to have touched the true meaning!
If he has to stalk his neck and engage in some unrealistic tricks, even if Xu Changqing doesn't engage him at this time, he will definitely be on Xu Changqing's blacklist and become a scapegoat and stepping stone!
Because Xu Changqing is today, there are very few people who dare to lift the table, can lift the table, and have the ability to lift the table!
If he is not attentive at this time, he will surely become a ......
After a while, Wang Fuchun finally straightened out his thoughts, and said to Xu Changqing with great embarrassment and pain: "Master Hou, the grass people are guilty, the grass people are guilty." The grass people have recklessly read the books of the sages for several years, but they have turned their backs on their ancestors and conscience, and they have a connection with the Tartars, and they also gave 150,000 taels of silver to the Tartars, and gave them to twenty Tartar beauties......
Wang Fuchun said, already snot and tears, staining the gorgeous cashmere carpet under his feet.
Xu Changqing became more and more satisfied with Wang Fuchun's cleverness, and said with a smile: "Master Wang, speaking of which, this matter is indeed heinous, and the ten clans must be eliminated to set an example!" However, as the old saying goes, if a person is not a sage, who can be without fault? If you know your mistakes, you can still be a good man. β
As he spoke, Xu Changqing stood up, his face suddenly grim: "The most hateful thing is those conscience thieves who have made mistakes and been caught, but they still keep talking about it!"
His mother picked up the bowl to eat, and scolded her mother when she put down the bowl!
I have been blessed by my great wisdom for generations, but I am the first rat at both ends, and I have done all the evil things! But I still think I'm very smart, and everyone else is blind!
Such a thief, I, Xu Changqing, will never tolerate half a point!
If there is one, I will kill one, and if there is a pair, I will kill a pair! Even if it is 100,000 million, I, Xu Changqing, will not frown when I kill them all! β
