Chapter 339: Lose without resentment

"Your Majesty, all the houses in Yuhua Lane have been sold. Weichen has the final say, the total payment for the house is 700,000 taels. Half of the house payment is received in advance. For today alone, Mrs. Zhao has received 350,000 taels."
"really?"
The emperor is rich in the world, but he was still surprised to hear that Gu Jiu made 350,000 taels a day.
"Weichen dare not deceive your Majesty. The house in Yuhua Lane is clearly priced, and the price is not a second price, and only a 20% discount for shipping to the Four Seas Commercial Bank for one year. In less than two hours, there are 80 or 90 houses in Yuhua Lane. Sold."
The emperor nodded secretly, and he knew that Gu Jiu knew how to make money.
He asked again: "What's the matter with half of the house payment?"
"Because the house in Yuhua Lane has not been completed yet, it will take three months to hand over the house. Therefore, today only half of the house payment will be charged in advance, and the other half will be charged when the house is handed over."
"In other words, Gu Jiukong Gloves White Wolf, and took dozens of sets of houses that hadn't been shadowed, and set up 350,000 taels of silver in one day."
"That's right! Your Majesty, Madam Zhao's move will probably make a bad head. Do you want to suppress it?"
"Clearly mark the price, you are making money upright, young people are not deceived, and they haven't played any tricks in private, why suppress?"
The emperor asked.
Embroidery Wei Zuowei lowered his head and said yes.
"Haha..."
Then I heard the emperor laugh.
"Sure enough, I didn’t misunderstand Gu Jiu. I knew her Yuhua Alley could make money. But I still underestimated her. I didn’t expect that a small Yuhua Alley, dozens of houses, could be sold after rectification. Hundreds of thousands taels of silver are staggering.
The pier she set up, I look at the future will not be small. How can she control the tariff collection alone. Jiaminger, I want her to come to the palace and talk about it. "
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
"Continue to stare and see what she will do afterwards."
"Weichen follow the order!"
...
Li family.
Li Dalang lay half dead on the bed.
The emperor cut it down with a knife and added twenty court rods, which really killed him.
It is not easy to survive.
And because of the knife cut by the emperor, it hurt the bones. The imperial doctor said that even if you raise it well, there will be sequelae.
In the future, his left arm will be unable to exert strength and will no longer be flexible.
He cursed, cried, and cursed, all of which didn't work.
The matter is now, he can only accept.
Listening to Xiaosi reporting on the situation in Yuhua Lane, he felt a pain in his heart when he heard that Gu Jiu earned hundreds of thousands of dollars a day.
Raised fists, fist after fist hit the bed.
"God doesn't have eyes? Are those foreign merchants stupid? Why should they buy such an expensive house? The house in Yuhua Lane is not worth any money at all."
The young man said tremblingly: "Master Qi, because of the Yuhua Lane Wharf, those foreign merchants don't realize that the houses in Yuhua Lane are expensive. Some people bought three to five houses in one go."
Li Dalang gritted his teeth, "All those people are fools. Can I not know what Yuhua Alley looks like, it is tattered."
The little servant reminded me cautiously: "All the original houses in Yuhua Lane have been demolished. The houses sold now are all newly repaired. The water and roads have been renovated, which is different from the past."
"Shut up! Whose family are you, and who are you talking to?"
Li Dalang picked up the medicine bowl and threw it on the head of the young man.
Xiao Si hid secretly and was discovered by Li Dalang.
Li Dalang was furious, "Drag him down and beat him hard."
In a blink of an eye, the young man was dragged down and played in the yard.
The manager appeased Li Dalang, "Master, the imperial physician urges not to be irritable, it will affect the wound healing."
"What about the recovery? Can I still be an official? Can I still lift my hands? Get out, get out."
Li Dalang was furious.
Compared to losing in the hands of the opponent, the opponent's small days are getting more and more prosperous, and the business is getting bigger and bigger. Set off myself more miserably.
Seeing Gu Jiu get rich, and he can only lie on the bed to heal his injuries, it is clear that the opportunity to make a fortune is his. It is Gu Jiu's establishment bureau that snatched his fortune opportunity from him.
"what……"
Li Dalang roared like a vent, like a trapped beast, unable to find a way out.
The people in the yard, listening to his roar, did not even dare to breathe, for fear of irritating him.
The manager was anxious to get angry, "Young Master, you can't do this. The mother told you to be steady and not impatient."
Li Dalang angrily scolded, "Shut up! Does the mother know how I feel at the moment? Do you know my pain? The mother doesn't know anything. The only thing in the mother's heart is her prosperity and the little prince. How can she care about my situation? I have been concerned about the situation of the Li family."
"presumptuous!"
Master Li entered from outside with a straight face.
He waved his hand, and all his servants retreated.
Master Li was very angry, "The empress is what you dare to denigrate. How many heads do you have? Without the empress, you can call slaves, can you lie on the carved nanmu bed?
After only a few years of wealth and wealth, I forgot the hard days of the year and forgot that you have today, all thanks to the empress. If it weren't for the empress, you would have fallen to the ground.
You don't know how to be grateful, but you dare to feel resentment. I think you were stupid by those twenty boards. "
Li Dalang was silent, his face gloomy.
Master Li snorted, "If you continue to do this, you will simply be a dude in the future, and you won't have to worry about family affairs."
Li Dalang couldn't believe it, "Father wants to seize the rights of his son? Doesn't even the father begin to dislike his son?"
Snapped!
Master Li slapped the table, and the teacup and teapot jumped in shock.
"Look at you now, the face of Concubine De Concubine has been completely lost by you. Just because you have been complaining all day, why should you delegate power to you?"
Li Dalang gritted his teeth and said, "My son is only irritated and can't accept it for a while, so he will be abnormal."
When Master Li saw that Li Dalang began to subdue, his tone also eased a little.
"My father has already heard about Yuhua Lane. Yuhua Lane has changed its appearance. It was impossible to think of today's situation. When Yuhua Lane fell in your hand, why didn't you think of spending money on rectification?"
Li Dalang argued: "The people who live in are all mud legs. If you spend money on rectification, isn't it because the mud legs are cheaper."
Master Li snorted, "It can be seen that your vision is indeed inferior to that of the other party. This time the loss is not injustice, you are not qualified to be convinced. But this business is by no means her Gu Jiu's exclusive business, we can also Do. I’ve already made the character’s lottery, and we will also build the house to sell it tomorrow."
Li Dalang suddenly became energetic, "Father is planning to fight against Gu Jiu?"
"What does it mean to work against each other? This means that everyone who has money makes money. Gu Jiu is not the only one in Jingcheng, so naturally it is not her turn to make money alone."
"Father is right. Our Li family can also make this money."
...
Gu Mei was anxious about the child, and when she was sure that the house was sold, she bid farewell to Gu Jiu and set off for the Daihou Mansion.
Gu Jiu was still sitting in the teahouse drinking tea.
Ma Xiaoliu will report on Yuhua Lane in time.
The house was sold, the payment was booked, and everything went well.
Although all this has been anticipated long ago, only when the real dust settles will my heart feel at ease.
Bai Zhong will take care of the rest of the matter, and Gu Jiu is also preparing to return to the palace.
"Madam, someone is asking to see you below. This is a greeting card!"
Gu Jiu wondered how anyone knew she was here.
"Who sent the greeting card?"
"People who don't know have an accent like they're from the south."
Gu Jiu opened the greeting note, and "Worship Yuhua Lane Dongjia" a few vigorous and powerful characters appeared on the paper.
She laughed, there are smart people everywhere.
He even touched this place by following Ma Xiaoliu and confirmed her identity.
She tossed the greeting card and said to Ma Xiaoliu: "Do you know you were being followed."
what?
Ma Xiaoliu looked dumbfounded, panicked, and very disturbed, "Small it."
"Damn it indeed. Be alert next time. Go and invite this young man from the south."
The capable person followed Ma Xiaoliu without knowing it, and with a little clue, she was able to determine that she was the owner of Yuhua Lane. I have to say that this is a smart person, very smart.
Gu Jiu is happy to deal with smart people.
She also wanted to meet this Young Master Zhou to see what this person came from.
Zhou Jin was invited to the private room on the second floor.
The door opened, and he walked in with his folding fan.
When he saw Gu Jiu sitting at the table, he was obviously stunned, his expression a bit unnatural.
Gu Jiu looked at each other with a half-smile, "Is Mrs. Zhou surprised to see this lady? Are you thinking that you have made a mistake in your judgment, how could the owner of Yuhua Lane be a woman?"
In a blink of an eye, Zhou Jin returned to normal, "Cao Min visited Madam Zhao. Before Cao Min came, I did not expect that Yuhua Alley was actually his wife's property. Please forgive me for any rudeness."
Sure enough, he is a smart man.
"You know me?"
Gu Jiu looked at each other up and down, no matter how he looked at him, he was a handsome young man, with a good appearance, not like a businessman.
Zhou Jin said with a smile, "I know a little bit."
Gu Jiu smiled and invited the other party to sit down.
"When you saw this lady first, you judged her identity. I'm very curious, what is your basis?"
Zhou Jin and Gu Jiu sat facing each other, "If the Caomin says there is no basis, it is all instinct, does the madam believe it?"
Gu Jiu shook his head, "I believe this. I believe it. I don't believe it when I say it from Lord Zhou."
Zhou Jin smiled bitterly, "Thank you Mrs. Caomin for looking up at Caomin. To be honest, I came to the capital, and after hearing about the great achievements of Huyang County lord, Caomin specifically inquired about the princess mansion and the Ningwang mansion. Caomin guessed that what happened around Yuhua Lane Someone in Prince Ning’s Mansion should not be surprised to do a series of things. The Caomin dared to guess a lot, but never expected that the real owner would be Mrs. Zhao."
Gu Jiu smiled softly, "You are very keen. I heard that you are from the south, what kind of business do you do?"
"Do north-south trading."
"Huge business?"
"Just an ordinary little businessman."
"Master Zhou does not have to be humble. You can tell the identity of this lady at a glance, and the person who can buy the three houses in Yuhua Lane in one breath is an ordinary small businessman. If you don't say the origin of Zhou Gongzi, this lady does not ask. I don't know. Young Master Zhou went to my wife, what's the matter?"
"If the wife doesn't dislike it, Cao Min wants to cooperate with her in business."
This is Zhou Jin's sudden thought.
Before coming, he just planned to make a good relationship and verify his judgment.
But the moment he saw Gu Jiu, he realized for the first time in his life what it is to be nervous.
He was in the south, and he had seen many heroines who were unbelievable. It's not uncommon for women to do business, and it's not uncommon even for a business ten times larger than Yuhua Lane.
There is no shortage of such women in the South.
However, a person as young, beautiful, and extraordinary as Gu Jiu, with such a high status, personally controls such a large business, and has such a novel way of doing business. In an instant, Zhou Jin was surprised.
After a few small chats, he became more and more amazing.
So, he changed his mind, he wanted to cooperate with the lady in front of him.
Gu Jiu smiled softly, "I don't do North-South business."
"Caomin is not just doing north-south trading."
Zhou Jin regretted that he was not honest enough at the beginning.
Gu Jiu said, "I have no interest in cooperation for the time being, and I will have a chance to talk later."
She serves tea as a treat.
Zhou Jin's heart was choked and choked. In an instant, he calmed down again.
"Excuse me today. Cao Min Zhou Jin, a businessman, wants to officially meet his wife."
Gu Jiu looked at him with a faint smile, "We already know each other."
Zhou Jin knew it, "Caomin left."
Simply neat and demeanor. From the beginning to the end, neither humble nor overbearing, and no regrets at all when he left.
Zhou Jin hurriedly went downstairs.
When he got into the carriage, he looked back towards the second floor.
He saw a pair of bright eyes, which disappeared in a flash.
Zhou Jin laughed, got into the carriage, and left.
He did not go back to the inn, but went straight to the alley.
Walking into the dilapidated courtyard in the alley, Zhou Jin bowed to the person in front of him, "Between Uncle Shi."
Zhou Shian looked up at Zhou Jin, his eyes were strange and scrutinized.
Zhou Shian, the cynical, down-and-out poor scholar in the Northwest Temple was stimulated by Gu Jiu's words and decided to fight again. So I came to the capital and studied behind closed doors.
The little beggar who had been with him at the time had disappeared since he broke the temple.
He didn't know that the little beggar had already entered the palace and changed his name to Zhou Miao. He was already an insider of Shang Shan Jian. Mixed in the harem.
"Uncle Shi, I'm Zhou Jin from the Zhou clan in Huai'an. My father told me that I must come and greet you when I arrive in Beijing."
Zhou Shian has a serious face, "I know you, pirate chief. The reputation of the Zhou family is all defeated by you."
Zhou Jin smiled lightly, "Uncle Shi is too high to look at his nephew. If I were a pirate leader, I could appear at the feet of the emperor, would I not be afraid that the embroidery guard would come and arrest people?"
Zhou Shian raised his eyebrows and laughed mockingly, "Don't coax me with words to coax a three-year-old child, I know what you are, I know. Come on, why did you come to see me?"
"The Zhou family in the south of the Yangtze River was originally from the same ancestor. Why would Shishu refuse to stay thousands of miles away."
"With the same ancestor and different ancestry, your Huai'an Zhou family, and our Chuzhou Zhou family, have already issued five clothes. Don't see a surname Zhou, just climb relatives indiscriminately."
When Zhou Jin heard the words, he smiled indifferently, "The uncle of the world is reasonable. This time I entered Beijing, in addition to sending a batch of goods, I also wanted to add makeup to my elder sister. I heard that the eldest sister is about to marry into Pingnan Hou's eldest daughter-in-law. It's all Zhou. For the descendants of the Clan, it’s fine if you don’t catch up. Now that you have caught up, of course you have to show your heart.
Zhou Shian said, "You told me it's useless. I have already broken away from the people over there. I am a descendant of the Zhou family of Chuzhou, but not a descendant of the Zhou family of Chuzhou. Weddings and funerals are not used to ask questions. I."
Zhou Jinzheng'er said: "Uncle Shi and his family are unhappy, and my nephew has heard about it. It's just that after so many years, Shishu should also want to open a little. Since he can pick up the book again, why can't he and the emperor's family? Make peace with the family?"
Zhou Shian sneered, "It's not your turn to talk about my business. There is nothing else, you can get out of here."
Zhou Jin bowed slightly, "Today's chatter, my nephew prepared a little gift, and asked Shishu to accept it."
Zhou Shian didn't give face at all, "No matter what the courtesy, I will take them away."
Zhou Jin said nothing, clapped his hands, two young servants and two maids filed in.
"From now on, these four people will take care of Uncle Shi's daily life, running errands and doing errands. Don't worry about Uncle Shiqian, my nephew has already thought of everything for you. Uncle Shi is busy, and my nephew will leave."
"I don't want these four people, take them all."
"People have already been given to Uncle Shi. Uncle Shi has to fight or kill at his own discretion. Only they cannot be returned to his nephew."
Zhou Jin said concisely and simply got up and left.
Zhou Shian was not given the opportunity to retire at all.
Zhou Shian's feet were slow, and when he chased him out, Zhou Jin had already disappeared. Zhou Shian was so angry that Zhou Jin scolded Zhou Jin for a full quarter of an hour, and he didn't bring any serious behavior.
He said to the four little servants, "Get out, I don't need anyone to wait on here."
The four little servants knelt on the ground together, "Master, please be kind."
"roll!"
Zhou Shian closed the door, completely ignoring the four people. Kneel and kneel, go and go, don't care.
As a result, these four people have been kneeling outside for a day and night without any drop of rice.
Zhou Shian was out of anger.
