Chapter 125: A Conspiracy in the Dark
Hearing this, Cui Wenqing smiled.
It's not the first time he's been here, and the famous dish of Muddy Sheep Death has already been eaten with Yun Wanqiu, and Yun Wanqiu also had a lot of dishes at that time, which was enough to eat more than 30 taels of silver.
Thinking of Yun Wanqiu, Cui Wenqing couldn't help but show a hint of a smile, but soon, that smile disappeared, and a few traces of melancholy ripples appeared on his face.
I don't know where that little girl has gone now, but she just said goodbye without saying goodbye, could it be that she has forgotten his friend and left Taiyuan City?
"Husband? What are you doing in a daze? ”
Zhi Zhao shouted a few times, and Cui Wenqing came back to his senses and asked with a smile: "What's the matter with the governor lady?" ”
Zhi Zhao smiled and said: "Today is the first time I have negotiated business with these businessmen, and I am not very sure in my heart. ”
"That's nature." Cui Wenqing immediately smiled.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, four businessman-like men walked into the private room under the guidance of the maid's affection, and the one who walked in the front was the Liang Qingchuan that Cui Wenqing had seen last time. ”
"The four of you don't need to be polite, just get up." Fold Zhao with a false hand, the right to help each other, and then pointed to Cui Wenqing and said, "This is Cui Wenqing, the handsome husband, who accompanied the marshal to the banquet today." ”
"I've seen Cui Gongzi." The businessmen saluted Cui Wenqing again.
Cui Wenqing smiled and shook his hand and said, "Haha, I am also running a small business below, and everyone belongs to the same industry, please don't be polite." ”
Zhi Zhao smiled and introduced the identities of the businessmen to Cui Wenqing.
In addition to Liang Qingchuan, who was already known, the tall man wearing a yellow shirt was the shopkeeper.
And with a beard and a beard, it is the shopkeeper Xie who feels a little powerful.
In the end, the shopkeeper was the king, who was short in stature and looked like a mouse.
All of them are well-known grain merchants in Hedong Province, and the rations of the Zhenwu Army are all dependent on the four of them.
After the introduction of the two sides, they exchanged pleasantries, sat down as the guest of honor, and waited until three glasses of banquet wine, and naturally got down to business.
Zhe Zhao put down the wine glass, and said with righteous words: "You big businessmen have cooperated with my Zhenwu Army for many years, all of them are friends of our Fuzhou Zhejia, the annual military food procurement, Zhenwu Army also buys food here from you, this Shuai believes that the two sides have a very good foundation for cooperation, in the same way, next year's food supply, this Shuai naturally wants to ask you to purchase and supply." ”
Liang Qingchuan stroked his beard and said first: "Governor Zhe, we have indeed cooperated with Zhenwujun for many years, and as you said, the two sides have a very good foundation for cooperation, but the grass people are a little strange today, and I want to ask the Metropolitan Governor to explain on my behalf." ”
Zhi Zhao knew that Liang Qingchuan was not good, and there was no way to avoid it, so he had to raise his hand and signal: "Please ask the shopkeeper Liang to make it clear." ”
Liang Qingchuan's eyes suddenly flashed with an imperceptible cold color, and he said in a deep voice: "For more than ten years, the purchase of military food by the Zhenwu Army has been specifically responsible for the long history of Zhewei, to say that we understand, we grain merchants also know more about the long history, for the governor of Zheda, sorry, we have not yet reached the same sense of trust as the long history, so the supply of military food next year, the grass people have doubts. ”
Hearing this, Zhi Zhao's face sank, and he asked coldly, "Doubts? Hmph, does the shopkeeper Liang think that I will be deceived and cheated? ”
Liang Qingchuan smiled leisurely: "The credibility of the Metropolitan Governor does not dare to judge himself, but it is always more appropriate to work with acquaintances in this business, I don't know if you think the next words are right?" After saying that, he looked around, and several shopkeepers all nodded yes.
In this way, Liang Qingchuan was even more secretly proud, and said with a chuckle: "So, it would be more appropriate for the Metropolitan Governor to send Changshi to discuss with us, and the purchase and sale of grain can be much smoother." ”
The voice fell, and the look on Zhi Zhaoqiao's face couldn't help but be a little ugly: "Shopkeeper Liang, Ben Shuai has already made it clear that this year's military food supply is in charge of Ben Shuai, and Zhi Changshi has other important tasks to be busy in Fuzhou, but he is lacking in skills, please understand." ”
Liang Qingchuan shook his head and said: "If the Metropolitan Governor says this, the grass people will be powerless, or let's talk about it here today, and when the long history is free another day, let's talk again, I don't know what the Metropolitan Governor wants?" ”
Hearing such words that were neither salty nor light, but full of difficulties, Zhenzhaomei's eyes flashed coldly, and Bei Tooth couldn't stop clenching, obviously enduring great anger in his heart.
Before she could speak, a loud "pop" suddenly sounded in the private room, and Cui Wenqing couldn't bear to shoot the case anymore, and said angrily: "Liang Qingchuan, what do you mean by this?" ”
Liang Qingchuan was very unhappy with Cui Wenqing, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but snort coldly, and said lightly: "Cui Gongzi, we are discussing important matters with the Metropolitan Governor, you are an unrelated person, please don't intervene!" ”
Cui Wenqing said in a loud voice: "Presumptuous! The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, who said that I am an irrelevant person! ”
Liang Qingchuan sneered: "This Cui Gongzi, what we are talking about today is grain trading, what does it have to do with the rise and fall of the world?" Please also refrain from being alarmist. ”
Cui Wenqing didn't think about it, so he retorted: "Shopkeeper Liang, the grain trade discussed today is related to the whole army of the Zhenwu Army, as the saying goes, the three armies have not moved the grain and grass first, and the army that can eat a full stomach has the ability to fight, if it can't buy food smoothly, then the entire Zhenwu Army will be hungry next year, how can a hungry stomach fight?" If the Liao State and the Western Xia Iron Cavalry flock to knock on the pass at that time, wouldn't the East Road of our River be a thousand miles of red land, a mess, and all of them will be lost under the iron cavalry of foreign races? Therefore, the sale and purchase of military rations is a major matter involving the national economy and the people's livelihood, and it is not allowed to be careless or careless, and it should be regarded as a matter of the rise and fall of the world. ”
Liang Qingchuan was speechless by what he said, and his fat face couldn't help turning a little red for a while, and he said angrily: "Even if you can't buy military rations, it's also your Zhenwu Army's business, what does it have to do with me and other grain merchants?" ”
Cui Wenqing laughed a few times, and suddenly retracted his smile and said: "I have just said that the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, Liang Qingchuan, you ask yourself, if there is no Zhenwu Army to guard the border pass, you grain merchant may be leisurely operating grain trading here?" Maybe you have been arrested by the Liao people and played with your fat body to light the sky lantern, how can you be allowed to make a big fuss here! ”
Under Cui Wenqing's sharp words, Liang Qingchuan was so angry that his beard trembled, and he couldn't stop coughing, and he couldn't even say a word.
