No treachery, no business!

No greed, no business!

There is no merchant who is not greedy, because all the merchants who are not greedy are poor and die.

Since the opening of the North Lane Market, the flow of people in the two cities has plummeted, although on Women's Day, it has recovered a lot, but the success of the North Lane has caused a lot of panic to the merchants of the two cities, among which many businessmen have been tempted and tried their best to come to the North Lane to do business, but the North Lane is too small to accommodate at all.

If you can't come, you can only destroy it.

Originally, the merchants of the two cities counted on the imperial court to close the North Lane, but they didn't expect that not only did the household department ignore it, but even the imperial court paid more and more attention to Han Yi, especially when Li Zhi came to the North Lane, this move couldn't help but stabilize the military morale of the merchants in the North Lane, but at the same time, it also brought great panic to the two cities, coupled with the emergence of the beauty of freedom, which made the merchants of the two cities feel that if the North Lane continues to develop like this, they will have to face the crisis of bankruptcy.

Therefore, they were very united this time, and they must fight the North Lane, and they must not endure it any longer, so they went to negotiate with the household department.

Your household department doesn't care about our life or death, so forget it, but you still repeatedly restrict us, but you don't restrict North Lane, this is too unfair, isn't this forcing us to death, since your household department is unwilling to intervene, then return the power to us, at least it has to be the same as North Lane.

And the officials of the household department were also very unhappy with Han Yi, because Han Yi challenged their authority, and it was only because the household department Shangshu Gao chose to settle the matter and did not allow them to intervene in this matter, so Beixiang has always been safe. Now that they want dog-eat-dog themselves, why don't we sit on the mountain and watch the dogs fight, so we agreed and entrusted part of the management to the head office. Anyway, you'll see for yourself.

After the head office obtained this power, it began to unite with merchants to prepare for a comprehensive countermeasure against North Lane.

And these merchants who came to Beixiang were all big landlords, and they had shops in both cities, so Gu Zongxing took this opportunity to force them to choose one of the two, if they all left. Then the North Lane is finished.

This is a very simple and effective strategy.

But the purpose of the head office of Gu was not to crack down on these businessmen, but to Beixiang, so he didn't give them an ultimatum, but just hinted at it, you know it's fun, don't tear your face when you arrive, don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings

．

"How can it be that those merchants are too hateful to play such a despicable trick. It's a shame that you're still thinking about them and helping the two cities come up with ideas to make a good night market. ”

After sending those merchants away, Zheng Shanxing and Yuan Peony immediately came to Fengfei Tower, Zheng Shanxing became particularly angry when he heard this, he knew that Han Yi had never regarded the two cities as opponents, and he was still relaxing the curfew. Do your best for the sake of the two cities. If the other party does this, isn't it repaying virtue with resentment?

Yuan Peony glanced at Zheng Shanxing lightly. sighed a little disappointed, and said: "Good deeds, this is a business, and it is not a gentleman's friendship, and it has long been commonplace to cheat me." In any case, after the appearance of North Lane, it did steal a lot of guests from the two cities, and it would be strange if they all sat idly by. ”

Zheng Shanxing said: "The huge Chang'an City. I don't believe that there is no room for a small North Lane. ”

Yuan Peony smiled: "But don't forget that there were only two cities before, how much money can be earned every year, that is almost predictable, they are also used to it, now that North Lane has a piece of the pie, they really see that the money in their pockets is getting less and less, and there are many guests in North Lane every day, and the blow to the two cities is not small." ”

Zheng Shanxing was speechless by Yuan Peony's words, so he could only say to Han Yi: "Brother Han, don't worry, my clothing store will never leave Beixiang." ”

Yuan Peony said: "Of course you won't leave, just how much you can earn in a year from that small cloth shop in the West Market, the beauty of freedom makes a lot of money." ”

Han Yi glanced at Yuan Peony and smiled lightly: "Peony Lady said this, I'm afraid she is making excuses for her evacuation of North Lane." ”

Zheng Shanxing looked at Yuan Peony in shock.

Yuan Peony smiled and said: "This is not an excuse, but a fact, if it really comes to that point, I will evacuate the fruit shop and flower shop, but the women's pavilion will not move." ”

Zheng Shanxing frowned slightly and said, "Sister Peony, please forgive me for being rude, you are a bad move." ”

Yuan Peony said: "But you have to understand, our Yuan family is not just this little business, most of my Yuan family's business is still in the two cities, I can't give up all the business for a flower shop and a fruit shop, even if I want, but this is not something I can call the shots." Moreover, Han Yi, don't say that I didn't remind you, not only me, but they are also the same, like Dou Yi and Zhao Sijia, they still have some business in the two cities, they just moved the most suitable business for North Lane to North Lane, so unless you can stop the guild from doing this, otherwise, I think most of them will be forced to choose to leave. ”

Han Yi didn't say a word, just looked at Yuan Peony with a smile.

Yuan Peony hated this kind of look from him, because it made her feel as if she was naked in front of Han Yi, and said, "What are you looking at?" ”

Han Yi smiled and said, "Peony lady, do you remember my method of observing and measuring the mind." ”

Yuan Peony was stunned for a moment, and handed over two inquiring glances.

Han Yi said thoughtfully: "I'm very curious now, because how did I see the meaning of schadenfreude in your eyes." ”

Yuan Peony's eyes moved slightly, he chuckled, and shook his head: "It's not enough to gloat, but I do feel a little happy." ”

Zheng Shanxing was stunned and said: "Sister Peony, Han Yi saved your life, how can you do this?" ”

"These are two different things." Yuan Peony said very frankly: "People are jealous, since Han Yi took over Fengfeilou, he has been invincible, and it has developed to such a scale in just one year, and we have calculated it clearly, if I can see him fail once, I may feel very happy, but this is just my personal emotion, I will not fall into the well and take advantage of the fire to rob, otherwise, the situation may be much worse than now." ”

"I don't think that's the case."

Han Yi smiled slightly and said, "First of all, this is not a failure. It's about the life and death of my North Lane, if I lose, then North Lane will be over, and I only have Fengfeilou left with three acres of land. Secondly, if I'm not mistaken, if that time really comes. The peony lady will dress up as a savior, wearing a golden armor and holy clothes, stepping on colorful auspicious clouds, turning somersaults in front of me, and affectionately telling me to support me. In the end, you will propose to buy all the shops in North Lane, with the strength of your Yuan family, it is enough to support the entire North Lane. At that time, my North Lane may become your Yuan family's store, and even I will be your person. ”

Zheng Shanxing was shocked when he heard this, he never thought that Yuan Peony, who looked like a fairy, would hide such a big ambition, this is really not a fall into the well, but taking advantage of your illness to kill you.

But this can only show that Zheng Shanxing is not a qualified businessman, and real businessmen eat people without spitting out bones. This has nothing to do with Yuan Peony being beautiful, she just does what she has to do. It is also a quality that a businessman should have.

In fact, Yuan Peony coveted North Lane for not a day or two, because the woman's day is in line with the interests of her heart, and the market in North Lane is in line with the interests of the Yuan family. This is definitely a mistake, the Yuan family should have a market of its own, but in the entire Chang'an City, only the North Lane has a special nature and can be transformed into a market.

I think there must be a thought, as for whether she will do it in the end. That is still unknown, and only she knows it in her own heart.

Yuan Peony's face was not shocked, and he said lightly: "You must think so, I can't help it." As she spoke, her eyes shot two sharp glances, "Also, who wants to take care of you, it's really shameless." ”

Han Yi smiled: "Isn't it, you just need to know yourself." But your wishful thinking is wrong, in fact, even if your Yuan family falls into the ground, I'm not afraid, I don't believe you can try, I just hope that this will not affect the friendship between us. ”

Yuan Peony frowned and said, "Have you always been so self-righteous?" ”

Han Yi said: "In order to prove that I am not self-righteous, or we will bet a thousand guan for charity, it just so happens that Zheng Gongzi is going to send some bedding to the people to help them survive the winter, so let's first allocate 1,300 guan from the beauty of freedom, of which 300 guan is a little bit of our mind, and the remaining 1,000 guan are our bets, if within three months, I can't let the merchants of the two cities bow down and call me the little brother, it will be regarded as my loss, otherwise it will be regarded as your loss." How is it? ”

Yuan Peony nodded and said, "A word is a certainty." But you can also rest assured, I Yuan Peony don't bother to do it, I will only watch this show as a bystander. ”

It's all said that at this point, if she retreats, she will lose face, and she really doesn't believe that Han Yi can fight against the two cities without relying on their Yuan family, which is too exaggerated.

Han Yi said with a smile: "Of course I believe this, after all, there are still many interests between us, what you want is not how to defeat me, but how to support me, as the old saying goes, a thousand gold is easy to get, and a handsome guy is hard to find." ”

"Farewell!"

Yuan Peony got up and left.

"Zheng Gongzi, if you see it, she will call it - to be a thief."

Han Yi smiled, suddenly saw no response, looked back, and saw Zheng Shanxing standing in front of the window, his expression was stunned, his eyes flashed rapidly, as if he was still thinking about something, and couldn't help shouting: "Zheng Gongzi, Zheng Gongzi." ”

Zheng Shanxing was stunned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Han Yi was curious: "What are you thinking?" ”

"I'm thinking." Zheng Shanxing stopped talking, and suddenly said excitedly: "Haven't you already thought of a way?" ”

In fact, he was secretly having fun just now, and he had an extra thousand yuan in vain, he had done so many good deeds for so many years, and he had never been so generous, and now a thousand yuan is a super huge amount of money, you must know that Han Yi was almost forced to die by the usual money, and the Wang family put on loan sharks for more than ten years, and it took them to make up this thousand yuan by smashing the pot and selling iron, all because today's prices are too low, resulting in the value of currency.

Only super rich businessmen like Han Yi and Yuan Peony can say this amount without blinking, of course, Han Yi is actually reluctant enough, which accounts for at least one-fifth of Fengfeilou's liquidity, but you bet with the Yuan family, the stakes are too small, and people may not be interested.

"Think of a way?"

Han Yi smiled disdainfully, pointed to his face and said, "Can't you see that I'm worried because there are too many ways and I don't know how to choose?" ”

．

．

After Zheng Shan walked, Han Yi immediately asked Liu E and Sang Mu to be called into the house.

"Brother Han, I heard that the two cities are going to join forces to deal with us, is this true or false?"

As soon as Liu E entered the house, she asked in a slightly anxious manner.

Han Yi nodded and said, "It's true, they came to me for this purpose." ”

Liu E snorted and said with disdain: "These businessmen, they just can't see others have the slightest good, it's really hateful." ”

But that's about it.

Han Yi didn't have the slightest anxiety when she saw her, she was just a little angry, and said curiously: "Sister Liu, this is not like you." ”

Liu E was stunned and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Han Yi said: "Two days ago, Master Ma sat here, and you cried for two nights, but now that this big thing has happened, I don't think you are in a hurry at all." ”

"It's a big deal."

Liu E's face was indifferent, and she said disdainfully: "Just those businessmen, how can they be compared with the master of the horses." ”

Han Yi was completely speechless, you weren't afraid when you should be afraid, and when you shouldn't be afraid, you were so scared, it's really hard to communicate!

As everyone knows, Liu E has now been trained by Han Yi, if this was before, maybe she would still feel frightened because of this, but since Han Yi entered the court as an official, the people she came into contact with were all princes and nobles, and the offense was also these people, who often scared her half to death, and a few days ago she was so scared that she almost threw off her burden and left, and now when I look back, wow, it's a group of businessmen, I can't be afraid of it!

If you are used to seeing tigers, you can't be afraid of cats.

Sang Mu said with a solemn expression: "Sister Liu, don't be careless, if the merchants of the two cities are united, the power is not small." ”

Liu E said very calmly: "Sangmu, isn't there still Han Yi like this, you haven't seen his means of doing business, what are you afraid of." ”

In terms of being a person, she has no confidence in Han Yi at all, but in terms of trading, she has a lot of confidence in Han Yi, as Yuan Peony said earlier, Han Yi has been invincible since he came to Beixiang and has never lost.

Han Yi smiled bitterly when he heard it, and said: "Sister Liu, I can be regarded as convincing you, when you should be worried, you don't worry, when you shouldn't worry, you are worried about death." I'm not afraid to tell you the truth now, this is really a big thing for me, because they are already invincible, how can they continue to play this. ”
