Chapter 241: Who Can Be Trusted?

In Qingpu, Guangzhou, Peng Xianzhong scratched his head, he only felt that his head was like a candle, and it was almost burned out. Although the head of the Cantonese Chamber of Commerce is An Jinzhi, the actual work is taken care of by him, the head of the commercial relations department of Qingtian Company.

Although the businessmen did not dare to say it openly, they secretly felt that Li Xian's handling was too heavy, so Peng Xianzhong specially summoned some members who were most resentful and had the most ghosts in their hearts to appease and enlighten them.

The general situation stabilized, and then he was ordered by Li Shi to supervise the Ministry of Commerce and Relations to write the "Qingpu Commercial Contract Rules", sorting out the details of industrial and commercial affairs that the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce must abide by. And these details do not specify how to deal with violations of them, just to remind everyone that Li Shi cares about these things very much.

While doing this, the affairs of Guangxi were piled up again, and Peng Xianzhong had to quickly contact Yixiang, asking them to give an explanation about the matter of pretending to be Qingtian Siwei, and at the same time contacting other Guangxi businessmen to see if there was a way to talk to each other in the middle and rescue Han Yujie of Xingshengtang. This Han Yujie is the former Hunan Longxingtang Han shopkeeper, after the career is bigger, he opened Xingshengtang, specializing in lead, tin, sulfur, saltpeter and other minerals, belongs to Li Shi's "strategic partner".

"Xiao Peng, you are so busy that you don't care about thinking about yourself?"

Yu Song, who is popular in Hunan, came to Qingpu and saw Peng Xianzhong like this, as if he was extremely emotional.

"Yourself?"

Peng Xianzhong heard that this was strange, and he was stunned.

"Uh...... I mean, you're not too young to think about things around you? ”

Yu Song's mouth turned away.

"Huh...... Then there have to be the right people. ”

Peng Xianzhong shook his head, three years ago, he was just a small role in the Yingde Peng family, but now his family has become a small role, and even his own marriage, it is difficult for the clan to peck, so he has to choose by himself. And he followed Li Xian, Yan Sanniang, Pan Jinling and even An Jiuxiu, who were both talented and beautiful, were used to seeing them, and their vision was also high, and no one looked at it anymore, and when they were busy, this matter was put aside.

"It's hard to say what will happen next, so let's think more about ourselves."

Yu Song said in a floating tone, Peng Xianzhong smiled, but he, like other businessmen, was worried about the future and didn't pay much attention.

After exerting his strength on the merchants in Guangxi, Li Xi sent people back to Yingde to report to Li Xianzhong, and at this time, someone came to find Peng Xianzhong.

"Daddy!? How did you get here? ”

Peng Xianzhong's father came, his face very heavy.

Since Peng Xianzhong entered the Qingtian company, the Peng family has also developed all the way, although it is not rich, it is also a well-known name in Shaozhou, and the industries of grain and rice, glass, iron tools, wine and indigo dye are booming. In addition to Peng Xianzhong's relationship in Qingtian Company, there is also a woman in the clan who married Tian Dayou, the patriarch of Qingtian Company, as the old man and daughter of the Peng family, and her relationship with Li Shi is extraordinary.

"Xianzhong, the old man is starting to worry about the future of our Peng family."

Peng Xianzhong's father also talked about the future, Peng Xianzhong's heart was cold, and even his own family began to be not optimistic about Li Xian's road?

"Our Peng family's relatives in Jiangxi have been implicated, the government has not clearly rectified them, but it is difficult in all aspects, there are also officials in the relatives, and there are many scholars, and their future is sealed now. The old man also said that they should move over, but they were unwilling, and said that they were killed by us and asked the old man to give an explanation. ”

Peng Xianzhong's father sighed, obviously extremely depressed.

"The old man asked me to come and ask you, fourth brother...... Are you really going to be prepared for the opposite? ”

Peng Xianzhong was speechless about his question, and Li Xian cut his braids at the wedding, and his anti-intentions couldn't be more obvious. But there were very few witnesses, and they were all the kindest people, and as one of them, he naturally would not divulge this matter to the public.

"Now in this situation, the fourth brother has not reacted, what are you worried about?"

Peng Xianzhong could only say that, and his father shook his head.

"If this situation continues, I think it's also a reverse word."

Peng Xianzhong still had to argue, but his father waved his hand and said: "I'm just here to convey the old man's words, we are businessmen, and there must be a court above." Now that the Peng family is following the Cantonese Chamber of Commerce and the fourth brother, it can be said that they have been coerced by him. But you are already the head of Qingtian Company, and at that time, the Peng family will not dare to recognize you again. ”

At this moment, Peng Xianzhong only felt bitter, Li Xianzhong had been talking to him about the pressure he might encounter, but he didn't expect it to fall on him now.

In a luxurious restaurant somewhere in Guangzhou, a group of people were talking in a private room, listening to their tones, they were all from Jiangxi.

"Tong Guoxing actually wants to unload our household registration and instigate other wealthy families to swallow our land, this is a bit ridiculous, right? Can those wealthy families help him with this bastard? ”

"He is jealous of Li Xian, but he is not afraid of us, nor is he afraid of those wealthy families, he just let the wind out of this matter to show that he can threaten us."

"It doesn't matter if the land is there, but our relatives and ancestral shrines are all there, so why can't we let our ancestors suffer, right?"

"What the hell is he trying to do?"

"You better go and ask Li Shi, what do you want to do?"

These Jiangxi businessmen looked uncertain, they had no deep relationship with Li Shi, but they wanted to do business in Guangdong, so they had to join the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce from Li Shi, enjoying the benefits while worrying about the future, they have always been painful and happy.

"If Li Shi hadn't acted so arrogantly, and slowly dealt with the official master, he would probably not be so jealous of the current situation."

"Yes, look at this situation, you have to fight, it just depends on how long it drags on."

"If you really want to fight, even if Li Shi is strong, it will be difficult to hold the court."

"Why do you want to do so much, while you can still make money now, hurry up and make it!"

"Snort...... Then Li Xi wants to be a good person again, and we are not allowed to exert our strength on the grass people, what a god. ”

The word "immortal" obviously did not carry any praise, and everyone was silent. After a moment, a man looked left and right, and spoke in a low voice as if he had made a big decision.

"You say...... If this Li Shi is gone, but the Cantonese Merchant Association is still there, can this situation be created? ”

Everyone is laughing, Li Xi and the Cantonese Chamber of Commerce are two sides of the same coin, isn't this a fantasy?

"This is the ...... It's possible. ”

But some people woke up, their eyes flashed, and everyone hurried to ask for advice. The man explained that Li Shi was a thorn in the eyes of the imperial court, and he couldn't tolerate it, but the Cantonese Chamber of Commerce was not. Even if the "Qingpu Business Covenant" is gone, the businessmen are hugging together, and even if the official man pounces back, Guangdong has already condensed into this situation, and it is more comfortable to do business than other places.

"The Cantonese Merchant Association is a businessman, and if Li Shi is sold, he may not be able to sell it for a good price......

The man said sadly.

"Throw Li Shi out, and then pick up another person, a person who is not very taboo in the imperial court, the Cantonese Chamber of Commerce, and the situation opened up by Li Shi in Guangdong, it is not impossible to leave one or two. Even if we can't sell it to the imperial court, we can't take advantage of it in Guangdong, but we can sell it to Tong Guoxing, and we are in Jiangxi...... It can also be very beneficial. ”

This made everyone's hearts skip a beat, and they looked at each other, all thinking about who the "other person" should be.

"I talked to the old man Peng of the Yingde Peng family, and he was very worried about the current situation, and he was very worried about Li Shi...... It's even more dissatisfied. ”

The man laughed, and everyone was stunned.

Yingde Baicheng, Li Shi was also dissatisfied with Han Yi, his spies failed to find out more detailed information about Han Yujie in Guangxi, and Han Yujie's men did not know where their proprietor was caught and imprisoned.

"Guangxi is there...... We really haven't paid much attention to it before, but you haven't even been to the line of the Guangxi businessman? ”

Li Xi asked, Yu Hanyi was sweating, although he was thoughtful, but there were too many things in his hands, and Li Xi also specially explained that he focused on the situation in Hunan, and did not pay attention to building Guangxi's intelligence network for a while. In addition, he also needs to keep his eyes open to observe the internal situation in Guangdong, suffering both inside and outside, and this meticulous man is now full of loopholes.

"That's my problem......"

Li Xi also came back to his senses, his requirements for Han Yi were too high. This is not a fantasy novel, with an intelligence organization, you can hear anything. The things in Yu Hanyi's hands are mixed inside and outside, which is really troublesome.

"You measure the internal and external work and see how you divide it."

Thinking that the intelligence organizations in his previous life had internal and external aspects, or for themselves and the enemy, such as MI5 and MI6, such as CIA and FBI, Li Xi began to make preliminary preparations, and he naturally couldn't imagine that his decision was too late.

Yu Hanyi failed to help Li Shi, so Li Shi had to consider using the channel of Guangxi merchants to talk to Chen Yuanlong, the governor of Guangxi, to see if he could talk specifically. Unexpectedly, the double agent Ru Xi came and brought the news that Li Xi was looking forward to.

Two news, one good and one bad.

The good news is that Guangdong knew about Chen Yuanlong's actions, and for fear of angering Li Shi, he took the initiative to say that Han Yujie had been released by Chen Yuanlong.

The bad news is that Zhao Hongcan and Chen Yuanlong secretly discussed to oppress Han Yujie to be the official in the government, and wanted to take advantage of Han Yujie's close relationship with Li Shi to find an opportunity to kill Li Shi.

"The matter...... Isn't it a secret discussion? Where do you know that? ”

Of course Li Xi didn't believe this, not to mention that Ru Xi was not credible, since this matter had nothing to do with her father, how could she know?

"This matter was proposed by the political envoy Tong Fahai, he sent someone over to talk about it in person, and he also specially explained to my father, after what is done, Han Yujie will be escorted into Guangzhou City, Han Yujie must have some deal with them, Li Gongzi has to be careful."

Ru Xi seemed to be very worried, and just from his expression, he couldn't tell whether it was true or false.

Li Shi pretended to listen to it, and waited for her to leave before he sneered, did the plan to sow discord begin?

But the news he received then made Li Xi also suspicious.

Han Yujie was released, unharmed, and Chen Yuanlong didn't even pursue the matter of the Yixiang before, no matter how you look at it, it feels strange.

"I don't like this situation."

Li Shi gritted his teeth, now he has time, but in such a dark battle, he is very passive. Is Han Yujie worth believing? Investigate him carefully, the hearts of the people of the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce will be even more sluggish, don't investigate him, although Han Yujie is a hardcore, but he is only a gathering of interests, but he can't trust unconditionally and unreservedly, he Li Xi is not Sun Ce.
