The cold wind swept the empty north alley unscrupulously, adding to the sad atmosphere.

Not only that, since the people from the household department came, almost all the shops in North Lane have closed their doors, including Taobao Market, and those stores just sent people to say hello to Han Yi, and no one went to communicate with Han Yi.

It makes people feel sad that a rabbit is dead and a fox is sad.

On the other hand, the two cities are still lively, because the New Year is approaching, everyone has money, business is very prosperous at this time of year, and the two cities have a big discount, it is conceivable that many people from the suburbs have come to join in the fun.

But this is not good news for the merchants of the two cities, who used to make money in the days of making money, but now they have lost money.

They want it to be over as soon as possible.

A meeting about this battle was held at Gu's house in the West City.

The most important merchants of the two cities attended this meeting, and almost everyone was like a proud rooster, their faces were filled with the joy of victory, except for Qian Dafang and other merchants who went to North Lane to do business.

Qian Dafang was the first to speak: "Everyone, we have decided to close the shops in North Lane. ”

When he spoke, his face was blue and red, and he was embarrassed.

The other merchants had strange smiles.

Gu Yanshang said with a smile: "You should have done this a long time ago, I really don't know what to do in that palm-sized place in North Lane." ”

Since you don't care about it, why do you have to kill everyone. Zhao Sijia muttered in his heart, but he couldn't help but say: "Yes, what Mr. Gu said is that we were not fooled by Han Yi's guy before." ”

Anyway, it's like eating poop.

"Okay, okay, let them go through the past, just come back. Just come back. ”

Gu Yanshang nodded with a smile, and said loudly: "Han Yi is just a farmer from Yangzhou, he doesn't have much strength, he specializes in some opportunistic things, and uses rhetoric to deceive others, and he can't get on the stage." Didn't he invent a word called flickering, I think it's himself. ”

The others burst out laughing.

After everyone laughed, Gu Yanshang continued: "But I have to say that Han Yi's mouth is really powerful, many people have fallen for him, in order to avoid the same thing from happening in the future, I suggest that the businessmen of our two cities sign an agreement, that is, they are not allowed to go to Beixiang to do business again." What do you think? ”

Qian Dafang immediately said: "Of course, I am very much in favor of it, and everyone must sign it." ”

They all agreed, let alone the rest of the businessmen, and unanimously agreed with Gu Yanshang's proposal.

Gu Yanshang nodded and said, "Okay, you go and tell the rest of your people in each line of the news about it, and in a day or two, we will sign this agreement." Qian Da is right. Everyone must sign it. ”

They are only a small group of people, and there are thousands of merchants in the two cities. This is not counting foreign businessmen, signing an agreement is not something that can be done in a moment and a half, but almost all of them have the final say, they are decided, then decided.

Wei Qing said suddenly: "Wait." This--I have to say, we have to spend a lot of money to deal with North Lane, just for this matter, we haven't made anything in the past year. But it's all because of the big money, of course, I don't blame them, they were just deceived by Han Yimeng, but they just felt that they should also share some of the loss. ”

Qian Dafang Iron Rooster, as soon as he heard this, he immediately became angry and said, "Wei Qing, what do you mean?" Our shops have also lowered the price with you. ”

Wei Qing said with a smile: "But this matter is because of you, if you agreed earlier, why did we do this, if we didn't let you all make up for it, we were already worthy of you, don't be ignorant." ”

Jia Fugui sneered: "You are right, we have already lost half a year's rent in North Lane, if you were willing to make up for us, we would have come a long time ago, you are really embarrassed, and you want us to help you share the loss, this is impossible." ”

A person beside Wei Qing got up and shouted: "Fugui, you don't cry here to be poor, the business in Beixiang was so good a few days ago, almost all the people in the city went to you, and there is no one to compete with you, I see that your capital has already come back, and you have made a lot of money, but we have been losing, you help to spread a little, why not, our loss is still the greatest." ”

Dou Yi listened to the fire in his heart, and said: "Doing business is based on your own ability, and you can't complain about profits and losses, and if you want us to help you share the losses, this is unreasonable." ”

Another person said: "Dou Lao's words are wrong, this time it is not a battle between individual businessmen, but a dispute between our two cities and North Lane, honor and disgrace should belong to the entire two cities, and profits and losses should naturally belong to the two cities, if you lose, and we earn, we will also help you." ”

Qian Dafang sneered and was silent, thinking, who are you fooling with this nonsense.

This is the head of the porcelain line, Zhou Fei stroked his beard and said: "But I think Wei Qing's words are also inappropriate, this loss is not calculating, I have a way, I don't know if it is feasible?" ”

Gu Yanshang said: "Elder Zhou, please speak." ”

Qian Dafang and the others began to cheer up, they never thought that this situation would occur today, they felt that the most they could do was to be ridiculed a few words, so that now they were caught off guard.

Zhou Fei said: "I think so, Dou Lao, the money is big, after the price recovers, you will raise the price a little, let us people slow down, don't make this year bad." ”

Qian Dafang almost threw the teacup on the side when he heard this, and said: "How can this work, if I raise the price of my family, then my customers will run away, how can I do business in the future, then I might as well give you money." ”

Zhao Sijia and others also said that this idea is too tricky, and the old customers will be gone, and their reputation will be lost.

Wei Qing said: "Then you will give money!" ”

Qian Dafang said angrily: "Why should I give you money!" Don't even think about it. ”

Gu Yanshang suddenly pressed his hand and said: "What are you doing, what are you doing, do you still take me in your eyes." ”

Yigan glanced at Gu Yanshang, then snorted again, then turned his head away, and stopped talking.

Gu Yanshang glanced left and right. Slightly satisfied, he said: "Everyone here is also a well-known businessman in our Chang'an, this is just some small money, can you be guilty of this." Although Wei Qing and the others have some truth, it is a bit too much to say that they will pay to share the losses with a large amount of money. The money is big, and they also lost half a year's rent and returned to our two cities. As long as North Lane is closed, the money will come back sooner or later, what are you anxious about. ”

As he spoke, he said to Qian Dafang and the others: "Dou Lao, Qian Da, Zhao Laosi, let's do it, everyone who is making a big deal is more or less happy in their hearts." A few of you will take a little money out to the guild and invite everyone to have a meal. ”

As soon as Wei Qing and the others heard this, what kind of thing is this, and they were about to speak, but they were stopped by Gu Yanshang's eyes.

Qian Dafang and the others looked at each other, and they all knew that Gu Yanshang was doing this to give them a step. It is also to give Wei Qing some face and ease everyone's contradictions with each other.

"That's as it should be. I have no problem. ”

Zhao Sijia thought to himself, he had lost his face, and he still cared about the face of this meal.

Dou Yi and the others also nodded in agreement.

Although Qian Dafang was unwilling, the key was that he couldn't get over his face, so it can be seen that Dou Yi and they all agreed, so they had to nod and agree.

Gu Yanshang smiled: "Then so be it." ”

．

After the meeting. Qian Dafang didn't even slap his buttocks, stood up and left, Zhao Sijia and the others also felt that it was too embarrassing today, so they left with their heads down.

After they left, Wei Qing and the others surrounded Gu Yanshang.

"Mr. Gu. This is what we said, how can you be so cheap to them, our loss this time is not small. ”

"What am I going to do with their meal, I'm not so poor that I can't afford to eat a single meal."

"They can't just be so cheap."

．

Anyway, he was gossiping, and he was deeply dissatisfied with Gu Yanshang's behavior.

It turned out that they had already discussed this matter, and this matter was caused by the generous money to them, and they should pay for it.

Gu Yanshang pressed his hand and said with a wry smile: "Everyone, don't be impatient, don't be impatient, let me explain." ”

Wei Qing and the others immediately looked at him.

Gu Yanshang said: "I thought about it for a night last night, and I think it's not the time to talk about this, now the North Lane has not been completely closed, if they are forced to be in a hurry, they jumped over the wall in a hurry, and went to the North Lane, then we are busy in vain, and the gains outweigh the losses!" As you can see, continuing to talk about Qian Da's attitude will only make things irreparable, which is terrible, I have to say that. ”

Speaking of this, he paused and said, "But everyone should rest assured, when the North Lane is completely closed, I will find a way to help you get this loss back." ”

He also had an abacus in his heart, if he let Qian Dafang and them come back like this, then the matter would be solved, and there would be nothing for him, which was the last thing he wanted to see, so when Wei Qing proposed to let Qian Dafang and them share the losses equally, he agreed.

But in his heart, he is not just greedy for that little money, but hopes to have a follow-up, if he forces Qian Dafang to be generous to them, this matter is estimated to be yellow, then he is the boss, this responsibility will naturally have to be borne by him, which will make him lose his appeal, even if he forces Qian Dafang and others to agree, then Qian Dafang They will definitely hate him, and this matter is over, this is not good, Qian Dafang Their strength should not be underestimated, he still wants to give Qian Dafang them some benefits, let them also support themselves, but at the same time, He must provoke the fight between Wei Qing and Qian Dafang, so that both sides will ask for him, then his position will naturally be unshakable.

When Wei Qing and the others heard this, they seemed to be too, but don't end up with nothing, they also made a fuss, and said: "Mr. Gu, this is what you said, you can't be untrustworthy." ”

Gu Yanshang said with a smile: "Of course, as the head office, I naturally have to think about everyone. ”

．

Over there, Qian Dafang and the others went to Dou Yi's house when they left the Gu family, and this matter came too suddenly, and they had to sum it up.

"I can't imagine that Wei Qing's villain actually wants us to help them share the losses, it's really hateful, he, Wei Qing, is a fart! When Lao Tzu was doing business, he didn't know where it was. ”

Qian Dafang was aggrieved, and you asked him to pay the money. It was even more uncomfortable than killing him, and as soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but scold.

Zhao Sijia also felt aggrieved and said, "I really didn't expect them to do this, it's so despicable." ”

Dou Yi said: "Okay, okay." Mr. Gu won't let them come here, no matter what, we have to invite this meal, otherwise, our life in the two cities will be difficult in the future. ”

Peng Wanjin said: "Elder Dou, you can't help but think too well, I think this matter, it may not be solved with one meal, don't you see their faces." They all regard us as enemies, and no matter what, I'm afraid we won't have a good time in the future. ”

"Wan Jin is right."

Qian Dafang nodded and said, "If I knew this, I would have just stayed in North Lane." ”

Jia Fugui said with a smile: "Would you be willing to give up your shop in the West Market, the North Lane is still too small, and the West Market has been famous for a long time after all." Merchants from the Western Regions all came to the West Market to buy goods, for a north alley. And it's not worth giving up the two cities! ”

Zhao Sijia also said: "Even if you are willing to go back, then how can you tell Brother Han, but when we close the store, we just send someone to tell him, in the end." When we were in Beixiang, Brother Han still tried his best to make money for us, and he couldn't complain about this, and now he must be very angry in his heart. ”

Peng Wanjin said: "We have to unite now. Otherwise, they will swallow it up, and they won't know what will happen. ”

Several people nodded

．

With Qian Dafang and others closing the shops in North Lane, it has already indicated that this battle is over, and the two cities immediately raised the price of goods on the second day.

Of course, there are also many people who feel sorry for North Lane.

Fengfei Building.

Liu E sighed: "This is really a wall pushed by everyone, you see that those people who are generous run faster than rabbits." ”

Han Yi smiled slightly and said, "It's no wonder they, they are the biggest victims, if we do this, can they not leave." ”

Liu E nodded and said, "I also know this, I just feel that this world is hot and cold!" ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "Sister Liu, you must not think like this, according to an unwritten statistic, once a person begins to feel emotional, it proves that this person has entered his old age." ”

Liu E immediately gave Han Yi a roll of the eyes when she heard this.

Han Yi thought about Sang Mu again and said, "Sang Mu, how about the money I asked you to approve has been prepared?" ”

Sang Mu said: "It's all ready, in fact, the two cities have no impact on our trading for the time being." ”

Han Yi nodded.

"Brother Xiaoyi, Brother Xiaoyi, it's rising, it's rising, early this morning, the prices of goods in the two cities have all risen."

Cha Wu ran into the house quickly.

"Really?"

Han Yi smiled and said, "It seems that they can't bear it either." ”

Liu E on the side said, "Then when do you plan to do it?" ”

Before Han Yi could speak, someone came to report, "Brother Xiaoyi, Xu Jiu is asking to see you outside the door." ”

"Hurry up, please."

Han Yi hurriedly said.

After a while, Xu Jiu walked in, and Han Yi greeted him warmly and said, "Uncle Xu Jiu, don't come to harm's way, please take a seat." ”

Xu Jiu arched his hand, sat down, and didn't have time to drink tea, so he said: "Brother Han, what you asked me to inquire about, I have already inquired clearly, they are now contacting various shops, and in three days, they will sign an agreement to restrict the merchants of the two cities from coming to Beixiang to do business." ”

"Three days later?" Han Yi smiled: "This is more than I expected, it seems that they have already thought that they have put the victory in their pockets." As he spoke, he stretched his waist and said, "I've been a shrunken turtle for so long, it's time for them to know what I'm Han is doing." ”

That night, at the time of the third watch.

Inside Fengfei Building, a candle flame suddenly lit up, and the figures inside could be faintly seen.

I saw five or six middle-aged women sitting inside, including Cao Xiu.

These women are the false mothers of the middle and south lanes.

After a while, Han Yi walked in, arched his hand, said hello, and said with a smile: "I don't know if everyone is ready?" ”

Jia Simu smiled excitedly: "We can't wait." ”

Han Yi smiled: "Very good! After this time, we will become the hottest market in Chang'an, and the pattern of Chang'an will also change because of us. ”
