Eighty-four: Temptation
This is not just their Xu family's business will be destroyed and affected, if it is really as Mr. Hu said, Shen Chen really broke the kettle and had the idea of reshuffling the four major families, then it was the four major families who were affected!
Liu Biping was brought out by the entire Liu family in Fujian with all their might, and he was a stable umbrella for the Liu family in the local area.
If the Liu family is moved, will Liu Biping have no reaction?
Mr. Hu sighed: "You only know one but you don't know the other. For the sake of smuggling, the adults have already dealt with Shen Chen......."
The Xu family also vaguely knew about this at the beginning.
The Xu family only makes money on silk and sea salt, but the Liu family is different, the Liu family really dares to use the copper coins in the oil pot, and they not only sell illegal salt, but also dare to sell weapons.
Not only that, Liu Biping was insatiable to act as a protective umbrella and middleman for them, and he also embezzled the weapons issued by the imperial court, and sold them to those pirates at a high price, and those pirates sold them to those Dongying people at a high price.
Therefore, the plague in Fujian and the coastal areas has never been quelled.
But in the first two years, the Liu family's business that had been developing smoothly suddenly hit the rocks----- their middleman, and the transfer caused accidents to both the Yi family and the Peng family, so that the Liu family had to cut off their arms and give up this business.
He lowered his voice in shock and asked, "You mean, it was this Lord Qincha who did this?!" ”
Mr. Hu sighed and shook his head: "Isn't that exactly the case, Lord Mintang has a grudge with this Lord Qincha for a long time, and Lord Qincha will take him as soon as he comes, what can he do?" What's more, now the ministry is also walking on thin ice in the court......"
Although the Xu family is a merchant, but the business can be so big, there is always their reason, and there are all news channels, but they can't inquire too clearly.
Now listening to Mr. Hu's specious remarks, as soon as he guided him, he felt that he had touched the door: "Even if this is the case, is that master of the ministry ready to be slaughtered?" ”
Mr. Hu put down the cup inscrutablely: "The Lord of the Ministry is now difficult to protect himself, so naturally it is impossible to clearly face the Lord Qincha to ----- the three divisions, according to the envoy, he has never been of the same mind as the Lord of the Ministry Hall...... Some things are too obvious to be done. ”
Xu Yuanwai understood a little, lowered his head and did not speak.
Outside, Xiao Er knocked on the door and began to serve food, the table was full of delicacies, Mr. Hu was not polite, ate and drank, and then poured himself a glass of wine and drank it slowly, and said softly: "You are a person who understands, Qin Cha is a difficult character to deal with, there are some things that the adults can't interfere with clearly, the Liu family is the adult's own family, and naturally it is not easy to be involved, so you can only trouble others......"
He said slowly: "This person can't be an ordinary person, he has to be able to do practical things." Lord Qincha is eye-catching, young, has no sense of proportion and doesn't know how to behave...... After he comes, he will definitely stir up the storm in Fujian, and when the time comes, the Liu family may be able to withstand it, but ......."
But the Xu family and the other three may not be.
Xu Yuanwai knew this in his heart, he understood very well what the current situation was, and also understood that what Mr. Hu said was reasonable, if Shen Chen really came to the family and was ready to take the family, then at that time, the Xu family would not be able to bear it at all, and the business would plummet, not to mention the orders that he received before.......
It will also be turned out......
Mr. Hu saw that Xu Yuanwai's forehead had begun to sweat, and knew that he completely understood what he meant, so he didn't say anything more, but urged him: "Don't say it, don't say it, it's not interesting to say this, Xu Yuanwai, come, pour wine, pour wine!" ”
Xu Yuanwai refused, he stared at Mr. Hu, and after a few hesitations, he said: "Sir, we may have known each other for a long time, you tell me the truth, Lord Ministry, does that mean?" ”
Mr. Hu smiled but said nothing.
But he just looked at him and told him: "The lord of the ministry is wise, he naturally knows which is good and which is bad......"
Xu Yuanwai nodded cautiously: "What Mr. means, I understand." Just ......"
He looked at Mr. Hu and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Sir, if you say it......?"
Mr. Hu had already waved his hand and smiled: "Don't ask me outside, if you have some ideas, where can others help me?" Of course, you have to make your own decisions. ”
When he had finished his sentence and had finished eating, he stood up and took his leave.
When he went out, another staff member who was still discussing with him in the palace just now came up and asked him, "How is it?" ”
"The Xu family is the weakest of the four families." Mr. Hu walked in front unhurriedly with his hands in his hands, and laughed lightly: "They look beautiful on the outside, but in fact, they are the most rootless, and they may be uprooted at any time----- there are people in the court who are easy to do, but they don't, they themselves understand their shortcomings, so they continue to marry other families." But you see, the other three families are not stupid, is there a branch that married them or their daughter who married a branch of the family? ”
The staff member also sneered: "They themselves know this in their hearts, and they are also afraid of being eaten by the other three families, so they are so enthusiastic about the construction of the city division this time, if they know that Shen Chen is not their life-saving straw, but their arsenic poison...... And the lord of the ministry gave them another promise...... In order to curry favor with the minister, of course they will spare no effort to deal with the Qin Cha. ”
When he said this, Mr. Hu hurriedly shook his head and smiled: "Don't talk nonsense, when did the Lord of the Ministry say that he promised them?" When did the Lord of the Ministry come into contact with them? ”
The staff laughed in response: "What you said is that they will definitely make a move, but I don't know how capable they are, and if they can give our Qincha a surprise." ”
"If the Xu family didn't have some ability, they wouldn't have been falling behind these three families for so many years. Wait, they either don't do it, or if they do, they won't go home empty-handed. Mr. Hu walked very leisurely and complacently with his hands behind his back: "I just have to remind them that they can't do things too desperately all at once, otherwise, it will not be easy to do." ”
Shen Chen's identity is special, he has already been attacked once in Dongchang Mansion, and his tail has not been cleaned up yet, if he comes again in Fujian, then Liu Biping will have more trouble.
The staff was a little puzzled and didn't know what Mr. Hu thought: "What do you mean by that?" After spending so much effort, co-authoring just to give Qin Cha a meeting gift? ”
"Of course, I will give a meeting gift first." Mr. Hu looked back at him: "Only when he is hated by Fujian people, then it is only natural that he will die!" ”
