Surprised to surprised, this little guy quickly came back to his senses, and after confirming Lin Xiqi's identity, he immediately took them to the small courtyard.

"My lord, this is the best courtyard in the area. The little guy said.

Although the young adult in front of him is the county guard of the border land, no matter how remote it is, it is also the county guard.

How can you be worthy of it without certain ability?

And I heard that the border land is not peaceful, and Hou Yuan often harasses, and he can gain a foothold there, which shows that this adult is not ordinary.

Whether it is that this adult himself is not ordinary, or the family power behind him is not simple, he has to treat it respectfully.

Anyway, the courtyards here are empty, so naturally the best is given.

Su Qingmei casually handed over ten taels of silver, and the little guy accepted it with a smile.

"My lord, if you need anything, just ask. ”

"Alright, you go down first. Su Qingmei said.

"Yes. ”

After entering the small courtyard, Su Qinglan looked at it and said, "It's not bad, it's well organized." ”

"You don't look at what the place is. Su Qingmei said with a smile, "This is the capital, even if no one lives here, the people here don't dare to slack off." ”

"Anyway, no one is coming, do you need to take care of it?" Su Qinglan said.

"Then you don't understand, every year the imperial court allocates a lot of silver taels to the post house, if you don't do anything at all, you can't talk about it. Su Qingmei smiled slightly.

"It turned out to be a private bag. Su Qinglan said suddenly.

These cleaning and tidying up the courtyard can be counted as the expenses of the post house.

One tael can be written as ten taels or even one hundred taels, and those real silver taels naturally fell into the hands of these people in the post house.

"Your Excellency. Tao Yan and the three walked over.

As Lin Xiqi's subordinates, they can also be regarded as guards, so they naturally live in the post house.

It's just that they don't have a separate courtyard like heaven, earth and people to live in.

Guest rooms will also be arranged according to some official positions.

Since there are more than a dozen rooms in this small courtyard, there is no problem for the three of them to live here.

As for the rest of the subordinates, they can only go to the ordinary guest rooms.

"You go and inform them of Helu, let them have something to do, come here. Lin Xiqi said.

"Yes, sir. Tao Yan immediately responded.

He glanced at Zhou Xiang, Zhou Xiang immediately understood, bowed to Lin Xiqi and retreated, and he went to inform He Lu.

"My lord, shouldn't you go to Liu's house?" asked Su Qinglan.

As soon as these words came out, Su Qinglan realized that she had forgotten that Tao Yan and Fu Vulture were still here, and couldn't help but hurriedly add: "No matter how you say it, you have helped the Quartet business a lot, and your lord should come to the door to thank you." ”

Tao Yan and Fu Eagle were like mirrors in their hearts.

Su Qinglan asked Cui You to go to Liu's house, naturally because of Liu Huaixu's matter.

They all understand that sooner or later Liu Huaixu will be the wife of an adult.

Since the adults have arrived in the capital, they have to pay a visit to the capital, but they are the old man.

Regarding Su Qinglan's explanation of wanting to cover up, the two of them didn't have any reaction, so they didn't hear it.

"My lord, you really want to go, through the Liu family, you can contact the nineteenth princess first. Su Qingmei said, "At the moment, it is not suitable for us to go directly to the Seventh Prince's Mansion, and it is not easy to contact him, and the Nineteenth Princess is the best middleman." ”

"You're right. Lin Xiqi nodded and said, "I definitely want to go to the Liu family, but not now." Lin Xiqi said, "I think we should clean up some things when we come to the capital this time." ”

"My lord, what's the matter?" Su Qinglan asked curiously, "Could it be that there are other things besides the Five Lakes Dart Bureau?"

Tao Yan and the others also stared at Lin Xiqi curiously.

"Originally, I didn't have that idea, but when I was on the road, I thought about it. Lin Xiqi said, "What do you think we do with the passage business?"

"Huh?" Hearing Lin Xiqi's words, Su Qingmei couldn't help but exclaim.

It was so unexpected.

"My lord, the trade name is not an ordinary business, if you do it to him, my subordinates are afraid~~" Tao Yan said with some worry.

"I know what you're worried about. Lin Xiqi said, "No matter how you say it, it is one of the four major business names." Still, they seemed a little too carried away staring at the title. ”

Tao Yan and they knew that Lin Xiqi was referring to the idea of the Tong firm and wanted to fight the Quartet firm.

Although they all know that the secret strength of the Sifang firm must have overpowered the Tongtong firm, but in the external performance, everyone does not think that the Sifang firm can be compared with a time-honored firm like the Tongtong firm.

After all, the Sifang firm has only been established for a few years?

They don't know what the Quartet firm really wants, Lin Xiqi's power can be used completely, in terms of such secret strength, no firm can compare.

Although there are also some forces behind the Tongtong business as backers, such as taking refuge in the prince.

But these princes will never pay everything through the firm.

This is fundamentally different from the Sifang firm.

"You also have to take into account the power behind the trade name. Su Qingmei said.

"I said to do it, and I didn't say that I want to eradicate it completely, right?" Lin Xiqi smiled slightly.

Hearing this, Tao Yan and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"We can do it by getting rid of them all at once, but the price to pay is too great to be a good deal. Lin Xiqi said, "I think I have to teach the company a lesson." ”

"My lord, great, I have long seen that the trade name is not pleasing to the eye, and I have been working against our Quartet business all day long, especially yesterday's incident, which is even more annoying. Su Qinglan shouted.

"Are you annoyed? I think the trade firm is equally annoyed. Lin Xiqi laughed and said, "In the confrontation between the two sides, we should take advantage of the time more, right? The loss of the Tongtong Merchant is much greater than ours, you don't see that the Tongtong Merchant has been completely abandoned outside the Saiwai over the years, especially the business here in the Western Regions." ”

"Then we don't have a time to lose. Su Qinglan said.

"It's really cheap and good. Lin Xiqi smiled and said, "But what Qinglan said is also what we need to work hard to achieve, and then we must minimize our losses." In the face of the passage of trade, to be invincible, to win every time, whether it is the speed of transportation of goods, or the price, I am ready to start dealing with the passage of trade in an all-round way. ”

"My lord, this is actually killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred. Su Qingmei frowned slightly.

"That's right. Lin Xiqi nodded and said, "Then it depends on who can bear it." ”

"My lord, the Tongtong business is an old brand no matter how it is said, and their savings for many years should be able to last for a long time. Fu Vulture said.

"You only see the income of the trade companies for many years, but you don't want to think about their annual expenses. Lin Xiqi said, "I have already ordered Wang Dong to check, and the company has actually lost money over the years." In particular, in order to encircle and suppress Tianhe Firm a few years ago, Tongtong Firm paid a huge price, otherwise how could other Merchant join forces with him? Tongtong Firm originally thought that once Tianhe Firm was annexed, then these investments would be able to earn back tenfold and hundredfold, but unfortunately, after being intervened by us, his dream was ruined. ”
