Chapter One Hundred and Four

The businessmen really didn't want to take out this money, although Fang Tingshi said that he wouldn't ask for it, but he really took it out and handed it over to him, who can guarantee that he doesn't want it, if he really cares about himself and others asking for money, a person will give him a hundred times, it's nothing,.

Now that he gave the money, he didn't take it, so naturally it would be impossible to help himself and others in the future, and if he really wanted to mention this matter at that time, the adults would definitely say that your money was given to the people, and it had nothing to do with the official, and it was really depressing to give the money and not get benefits.

All the merchants, you look at me, I look at you, first drank this wine, and then kept silent, and no one wanted to speak at this time, but they all thought of going together.

Seeing that they didn't speak, Fang Tingshi also had a way, ate two bites of food, and said, "Are you thinking about taking out the money?" Don't worry, you don't have to take too much, this should be able to compare to the food on this table, look at this shark fin, and then look at this full rain.

The food on this table is actually not the money of the official, how can the official have so much money to eat this table of food, I heard the owner of the restaurant say that the food on this table and the wine, if it is sold outside, don't think about eating it without 500 yuan, but these things have not been spent.

You know why? It's not that the people risked their lives to go to the sea to catch it, they are repaying you, rest assured, what you did is in your heart, and the people are also in your heart, you say, such a kind people, the things that were fished out could have been sold for some money, but just to entertain us and others, they didn't ask for a penny.

The people can do this, are we not as good as the ordinary people, they don't dress as well as us, and the food is not as good as ours, the more the official thinks about it, the more sad he becomes, this time he says that he wants the people to have a good year, at this time, please leave it to you.

The official also wants to take out 500 yuan, but unfortunately there is not so much money, you think it's not bad, right? One hundred and twelve people, one person five hundred guan, that is fifty-six thousand, with this money, there is no need to worry about the people suffering, more than 30,000 people in this state, each person can get nearly two guan.

Make new clothes, buy some rice and noodles, buy some oil, and get some wine to drink, the New Year, it's not easy to work hard for a year, just let the people be happy once, whoever comes first, those who have money will take more, as long as it is enough for 56,000 yuan, take less if you don't have money, take it first, talk about how much you can take out, if it's not enough, there will be more rich people behind. ”

Fang Tingshi's face was a sad expression for the people for a while, and then a smile praising these merchants, changing back and forth, and each time it changed, the hearts of the merchants trembled.

Five hundred, not the original thought of one hundred, this is more than money to let yourself and others take out, a lot, some businessmen may not have all the family property counted five hundred, that is naturally a small part of the people, five hundred, there are many people who can't earn it in a lifetime.

The businessmen secretly hated in their hearts, and they didn't want money, they didn't want money, they wanted 56,000 yuan? 30,000 people, divide these money, then it is about to catch up with the income of some individuals for half a year, who will take half a year's income for the New Year, and when the time comes, it can be delivered to the people, and it is good for one person to have three or four hundred Wen.

If there are many people in the family, such as six or eight people, then one person will have 200 Wen, which is consistent and 200 Wen and 600 Wen, which is enough for the New Year.

So will Fang Thorn Shi really give all that money to the people? Don't dream, you must have left a lot of yourself, take out the fraction, and it is impossible for you to check the accounts by yourself and others, who knows how much is left? With such a large amount of money, you don't need to appreciate it when you take out the history of Fang Thorn.

It's so calculated, it's so calculated, I didn't expect to find such an excuse, is the Chamber of Commerce in Luzhou paying the people for the New Year the same as here? The Chamber of Commerce in Luzhou has a lot of people working with them, and this is not only the most important thing, but the important thing is that the Chamber of Commerce in Luzhou has begun to rely on the local people to make a lot of money.

The people have their own things, and they can't collect them at all, even if the price is higher than that charged by the Chamber of Commerce, it is useless, and the people of Luzhou would rather sell the goods to the Chamber of Commerce at a lower price, and do not agree to sell them to themselves and others at a high price, this is the gap, is it possible for the local people to do this?

The businessmen are still silent, they are afraid of Fang Thorn History, but they can't take out so much money like a fool, but so many people, they don't make a sound, and they don't agree, see what you can do with Fang Thorn History?

Fang Thorn Shi is indeed the idea, that is, let the businessman pay the money, and when the time comes, he will only take out a small part to the people, and the people will also be able to have a good year, and the rest of the money, of course, will be left at home to spend, good business, you can earn tens of thousands of transactions at a time, why didn't you think of it before, this is thanks to Zhang Zhong's side.

Fang Thorn Shi thought very happy, got the money, and didn't have to make any promises to the merchants, this business is good, you have to do more in the future, it is best to have another big flood or a strong wind or something.

At this time, he saw that the businessmen were silent, so he turned his attention to Zhang Dongjia again, and said to him with a smile: "Zhang Dongjia, this official is silent when he sees that you guys are silent, do you want to get more money?" No, 500 is enough, so let's start with you. ”

Zhang Dongjia was stunned when he heard this, smiled bitterly, looked at the people around him, nodded compulsively and said, "My lord, can people who don't have money take less?" If the money taken first is not enough, let the person who takes it later take more? Then I'll just say it, I really can't get that much money out of my house, but I have rice at home, and I take out rice with a market price of 300 yuan, do adults think it's feasible? ”

There is a skill in saying this, the market price of 300 guan of rice, in fact, the cost is less than 200 guan, after all, he bought the rice before, and the price of rice was not expensive at that time, so that he can lose less, and he will be selling rice.

Fang Thorn Shi originally wanted him to take out 500 guan of things, but now he only took out 300 guan of rice, which is still the market price, and maybe there will be sand in the rice when the time comes, which is a problem.

Fang Thorn Shi didn't say anything for a while, Zhang Dongjia was worried, so he had to say again: "My lord, you can add another hundred noodles to the market price, it can only be so much, otherwise I don't have to live in my family anymore." ”

"Okay, then 300 meters of rice and 100 meters of noodles, yes, this is a lot, wait for the final time when it is not enough, find some wealthy people in the family to make up for the 100 times."

Fang Thorn Shi wanted to ask for more, but after all, it was a place, just have a good beginning, after agreeing, his eyes looked at other people, everyone trembled, and he didn't want to take the money, but looking at the people in the yamen around him, as well as Fang Thorn Shi's words just now, in this way, the first person who takes the money can find an excuse to take less, and the more the money is taken later, the more difficult it is.

"My lord, my family sells cloth, and there is not much cloth at home, but I am still willing to take out 300 pieces of market-priced cloth." Some people were afraid that they would have to take more later, so they finally couldn't help but speak.

At this time, the form of the other merchants uniting was broken, even if they couldn't take it, they all hated Fang Thorn Shi in their hearts, and they also hated those who couldn't help it.

"My lord, my family is willing to produce 200 guan of meat and 100 guan of plate oil, so that the people can have a good year, there is only so much." Another person began to report his things there, and those of them who were willing to take things also thought about it, so they took things, not money, and looked at these meats, can you still be greedy for ink?

Unless you sell it at that time, you won't be able to keep it at all, so you can be greedy, and when the time comes, you want to sell it, and see where you can sell it, especially the meat, which will spoil if you can't put it for a few days, so it's better to sell it back to a store like yourself, and then you will push down the price hard.

With someone to start, other people also talked about the money they wanted to take, while talking about the blood in their hearts, someone next to them was responsible for remembering, which person finished speaking, and it was almost remembered, come and press a handprint, this is considered a decision, and when the time comes, don't take out the money, and use this note directly to find someone.

The other merchants in front of these people are giving goods, then they will not think of giving money, the last meaning is a person who sells antiques, casually said to take out a 700 guan thing, this price is different, he said it is 700 guan, then someone has to buy it, if no one buys it, seven guan is not worth it, and it is not something that must be used in life.

There is also the pawnshop, and also took out some dead things, and now the valuation is higher, he thought of it, and when he goes back, he will open a voucher, and when the time comes, use a worthless thing, let the person he arranges come over and pawn it, not to say how much money is given, and that thing is naturally worth that money.

The merchants seemed to have reached a unity, and no matter how many things were given, they were all goods, especially a carpet seller, and he said: "My lord, I am willing to give a precious blanket, estimated to be 3,000 yuan, and I have not sold it for 2,800 yuan before." ”

There are so many such people, all of a sudden to make up for the money owed by others in front of them, even if they don't really give good things, but they still deliberately overprice, but there are many things that can't be directly estimated in price, so why don't you report more, it makes people feel comfortable, although that thing knows that it is not worth much, and it is useless to take it.

Fang Thorn Shi was quite happy at the beginning, but when I listened to it, I felt that it was wrong, how are they all goods, no one said to give money directly, and many of the values of these goods don't seem to be so easy to estimate, how much is how much, so no, there are even people who say that it is for meat, can the meat be kept and eaten?

If this continues, these merchants seem to be ready to take the goods, but what is the use of asking for so many goods? It's still easy to break, no, it has to be changed.

Thinking of this, Fang Thorn Shi took the words of the businessmen who said one after another that they wanted to take something, and said: "Okay, good, you are really good and righteous people, this year's year of the people is better, it seems that there is no shortage of things now, and the rest is better to help the people use some money, that is, there is no need to take any more things, these things are enough." ”

After Fang Tingshi finished saying this, he began to wait for the merchants below to take the money outside, and the merchants who hadn't said it were stupid now, they had already seen that the things that the people in front of them said were not worth those money at all, but fortunately, those individuals were still helping others, for example, a person who was willing to take out the medicine, saying that he was taking some good ginseng, and the price was quoted at once.

In this way, according to the average of 500 guan, he will help the other five people pay, of course, even if he pays, those merchants can't give nothing, just less, so that his 3,000 guan can help several people.

When the merchants in the back were grateful to him, they also regretted the amount of money they had said, especially the man with antiques, how much should he say if it was 10,000? Now everyone has to face the history of Fang Thorn together, so the businessmen are all in a group, just don't want Fang Thorn History to take too much advantage.

I didn't expect Fang Tingshi to find such a reason again and ask for money directly, which made the businessmen behind him blind, what should I do? To give or not to give?

Fang Tingshi looked at the rest of the merchants with a look that I was not in a hurry, his purpose had actually been achieved, even if the merchants behind him tried their best to find an excuse to give less, or what method to replace the goods, he also felt that it didn't matter, now these things are enough for the people to have a good year, and he is ready to keep more things for his own home to use slowly, and then give them to the people if he can't save them.

At that time, the people can only remember his goodness, who cares about any businessman, as long as he uses some means when writing notices, even if the names of these merchants are added, the people will think that these businessmen are all joining in the fun.

The money of the remaining merchants was directly earned, and there were a total of forty merchants who did not say that the difference was 16,000 yuan, which means that the people in front helped the forty people in the back to take an extra 4,000 yuan.

The forty merchants were silent again, if the four thousand guan were evenly divided, each of them would have to take out four hundred guan, but who could come up with the money in front of them, don't look at the high price, but they all knew in their hearts that no one could take out four hundred guan at all.

"If you have money, you can take more, although this said that you should take at least as much, but it didn't say that you can't take more, just like the people in front, they just took more, okay, now let's start talking about it one by one, just start from my side."

Seeing that the rest of the people were silent, Fang Thorn Shi began to urge, and the person who was pointed out couldn't hide it, gritted his teeth and said: "I'm out of four hundred, my lord, my business is to transport things to others, this place has been damaged, where else can I transport anything, take out this money, my family really has no money." ”

"Then you can take out 300 yuan, and let the rich people take the rest of the money, as long as you have this heart, it's good, well, yes, you can have less." Fang Thorn Shi deliberately said this.

He also calculated just now, it is forty people, one person is four hundred, if this person takes less, it will need other people to bear it, as long as he does this, then they will not continue to unite against themselves, yes, they have to do this, and provoke the relationship between them.

As soon as this person heard Fang Tingshi's words, he just wanted to agree, but he suddenly reacted, shook his head and said: "My lord, this is not good, I will do my part for the people, four hundred times, a lot of money, the family will be bitter." ”

Seeing that this person was not fooled, Fang Tingshi began to say to the second person who had not yet spoken: "Landlord, I heard that your business is not easy, it is better to hand over two hundred yuan, this official cherishes the people, but he can't let you go bankrupt for the sake of the people." ”

The landlord also shook his head and said, "Thank you for your understanding, don't worry, I can still take out this money, four hundred times, without any problems." ”

The businessmen hated Fang Thorn Shi even more in their hearts, how could they not see Fang Thorn Shi's plan, but at this time, if anyone dared to really take less money and let others help out, then there would be no need to do business in Lianzhou in the future, and everyone would squeeze him out.

It was as if the others had reached an agreement, and each said that he would take four hundred pounds, no more, no less, until the last man had finished speaking, and all the money would be enough.

Fang Thorn Shi saw that he couldn't provoke it, so he had to approve of such a thing, and he received a lot less than he originally planned, don't look at the overall quantity is enough, he is not a fool, of course he understands that there are many things that don't have that value, but he can't say anything now, the things haven't arrived yet, and I'll think of a way when I get it.

After a little calculation, Fang Thorn Shi found that the things he really got in his hands were not worth 56,000 yuan at all, and it would be good to have 26,000 yuan, which also added the real 16,000 yuan in the end, or the 16,000 yuan was left, or he took out a thousand yuan, and casually found a few people who were pleasing to the eye to give a point, or each person had a little less, and more than 300 people, each person had a lot of 30 yuan.

Well, that's it, and the rest of the things, when the time comes, pick the good ones and keep them, and distribute the bad ones to the people, this is really fame and fortune.

Thinking of this, Fang Tingshi finally couldn't help laughing, laughed, looked at the expressions on the faces of the businessmen, and said: "The official is happy, really happy, I didn't expect the people's New Year's matter to be solved at once, if you have anything in the future, just look for the official, and the official who can help will definitely help, of course, don't count on the things that bend the law, the official is not that kind of official."

Come and drink, the people will remember you, and the official can't forget you, you don't have to pay taxes this year, and you don't have to pay in the first half of next year, and when you pay in the second half of the year, the officials decide to charge half of each of you less in taxes, how about it? ”

Fang Thorn Shi poured the wine again as he spoke, looking very happy, and also gave some food to the merchant next to him, looking happy.

The hearts of the businessmen are dripping blood, but no one dares to say anything, they can only watch Fang Thorn Shi be happy there, after listening to Fang Thorn Shi's words, some businessmen immediately expressed their gratitude, but they don't think so in their hearts, what is the use of paying taxes only half a percent less?

If the money they earn can reach 400 yuan, won't they be able to earn 8,000 yuan? Who can make that much money? If it were possible, I would rather pay twice the tax than come up with four hundred dollars.

Fang Tingshi also understood this matter, he saw that the merchants could not make so much money, today he was so happy, thought about it and said: "In this way, half of the money is a little less, this official will give you another benefit, do you see Luzhou?" The road in that place is well repaired, and the seawall is very good.

The official is going to let the local people build this road and seawall at the beginning of spring next year, and they can't be left behind, right? Then the government will contribute some of the money, and the rest of the money will be given to those who are not invited to the small business today, and the people can contribute, and each of you will have to come up with at least 200 yuan.

For the sake of your actions today, then take less, take twenty less? If it's less, then take fifty yuan less, which means that when you wait for the repair, you don't have to take out two hundred yuan, and the official allows you to replace it with goods, but this goods can't be antiques or anything like that.

One is grain, the other is vegetables, and there are oil, salt, meat, and other things, including the tools used by the people when they work. This officer takes care of you, right? ”

Fang Thorn Shi threw out another thing, those businessmen were all stunned at this time, they didn't expect Fang Thorn Shi to be so shameless, what kind of help, even let themselves and others pay, why?

Another hundred and fifty things, is it still considered to be taken care of? Even if those things are falsely reported, they cost 100 yuan, how much money can they make in a month? This is still something that Fang Thorn Shi can think of now, if it is compared with Luzhou, is it necessary to build houses for the people? Is it still necessary to build a dock here?

The money from other people's side is all from the Zhang family, and the money from here is our own, can it be the same? If the Zhang family can make money, they can naturally earn it back, how can they make it on their own side? Life is still the same as before, who can understand themselves as businessmen?

Thinking like this, the merchants' faces became ugly, if it weren't for the guards in the mansion who were staring at them next to them, they really wanted to rush over and beat Fang Shi up, it was too bullying, so they didn't do it.

Fang Thorn Shi is still here to persuade the wine, how can the merchants still be in the mood to drink and eat, but if they don't eat, they have to take the money they should take, and the same is true if they don't drink, and the idea of being able to eat back a little bit is a little bit, the merchants began to eat, and as a result, they all got drunk one by one.
