Cui Sanniang has become Yu Jin's die-hard ally.↑,.
From the first Taishengjing to Yujing, Cui Sanniang has always maintained a good cooperative relationship with Yu Jin. When Yu Jin and Yang Shuangzhi were fighting, he did not hesitate to offend King Yu and cooperated with him with all his strength, thus becoming a designated cooperative merchant by Yu Jin.
Because Cui Sanniang was visionary and had been careful to maintain the cooperative relationship between the two, the two entered the honeymoon period from the beginning. Except for strategically selling it to the Tatar mission and Yang Shuangzhi, the rest were handed over to the Taisheng Trading Company for sale, and the money was naturally paid by the Taisheng Trading Company.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Cui Sanniang is the God of Wealth.
"Shopkeeper Cui waits for a moment, the young man will notify the young master immediately. I wonder if these three are?" A Wu hesitated for a moment and said to Cui Sanniang with a smile.
If Cui Sanniang comes alone, there is no need to inform you. Awen and Awu, who are guarding the gate, can make their own ideas and invite Cui Sanniang in. But today is different. There are three luxuriously decorated people following Cui Sanniang. Yu Jin has ordered not to let strangers in easily, so he has to ask.
Cui Sanniang smiled slightly, took out a reply and handed it to Awu: "Luoyou will give this post to Mr. Yu."
When I gave a reply, there was still a small ingot of silver, which was running silver.
"Okay, Manager Cui waits for a moment, the younger one will go immediately." Awu laughed and ran inside with a prayer letter.
Yu Jin strictly forbids the Internet to charge running fees, but the exception to Taisheng Trading Company. Anyway, they have money, so Awen and Awu, who are guarding the gate, are relieved to collect, so Awu did not refuse.
Not long after, Yu Jin received a message from Awu.
"Hey, strange, why did Cui Sanniang become so polite?" Yu Jin muttered to himself while opening the prayer letter.
As soon as he opened the prayer post, a note floated down and landed on the ground. Yu Jin was not in a hurry to pick it up. After looking at the prayer post, he couldn't help but say curiously: "Hey. There are three more people, Liang Shiqiu, Tian Sheng and Fan Fa, who are these three guys?"
Qing'er next to him picked up the note and looked at it. While raising the note in his hand, he said, "You can tell from this gift list that these three are the boys who give money."
Yu Jin took it and looked at it, and was surprised, and saw that it was listed on it:
A set of four treasures in the study;
A pair of white jade lotus jade pendants with concentric ears;
Three pieces of sable cloak;
Five roots of a century-old mountain ginseng;
Thirty pieces of each of the four colors of silk and satin;
Ten purple lead infused furnaces and three thousand kilograms of silver frost charcoal.
There are not many things. But the things are very practical. You can tell at a glance that they are fine products. According to etiquette, these are just meeting gifts.
"This Cui Sanniang brings me three Gods of Wealth." Yu Jin couldn't help but say.
Qing'er shook her head and said, "Wrong, Young Master, you are their God of Wealth."
"Ah, me?"
"That's right, if you remember, these three are famous big Shanxi merchants. Didn't Yang Shuangzhi raise a huge sum of money to trade with us? He just asked Shanxi merchants to raise money and make a big fortune." Qing'er analyzed: "They are afraid of calculating the accounts after autumn, so they moisturize the fat meat they have in their mouths, which is also considered to be a thank you, the great God of Wealth."
So that's it.
King Jing and King Yu compete for the legacy. There must be a group of supporters around King Jing. These people cooperate with King Jing for the sake of interests and indirectly tied them to King Jing.
Now King Jing has passed away. This means that their guardian god is gone. He is afraid that King Yu will settle the score later, so he took the initiative to come to him.
It seems that these three people are not the God of Wealth, but the Big Fat Sheep.
Yu Jin flicked the gift list with his hand, pondered for a moment, and said, "Shoppeople's face is to be given. There is no grudge at all, so they can make money with kindness. Please come in."
"Yes, young master." Awu responded and ran out immediately.
Soon, Cui Sanniang came in with three middle-aged businessmen.
"I have met Mr. Yu." As soon as Cui Sanniang came in, she immediately bowed to Yu respectfully.
The three people behind also bowed and said, "The villain has met Mr. Yu."
It is not a glorious thing for officials to get in touch with business, so they are very sensible and do not mention Yu Jin's official name.
Yu Jin smiled and said, "There are guests passing by, please get up."
"Mr. Xie Yu."
The four of them stood up and without waiting for Yu Jin to ask questions, Cui Sanniang took the initiative to introduce: "Mr. Yu, let me introduce this, this is Liang Shiqiu Liang's shopkeeper from the Liang Trading Company."
Liang Shiqiu is a middle-aged fat man. The most obvious thing is that he has two horoscopes on his lips, and he looks very smart. He heard this and said quickly: "The villain has seen Mr. Yu, so please take care of Mr. Yu."
Yu Jin knew that Liang's Trading Company is the largest mountain merchant in Shanxi, specializing in ginseng, fur, various dried fruits and other businesses, and has very strong strength.
Maybe the fur and ginseng in the gift list were taken out by him.
"It turned out to be Manager Liang, lucky to meet him." Yu Jin greeted with a smile.
Cui Sanniang continued to introduce: "This is Tian Sheng, the young boss of Changshun Trading Company."
"This is Fan Fa, the big shopkeeper of Dashan Commercial Bank, and Fan Dashang."
Every time Cui Sanniang introduced someone, the person would respectfully salute Yu.
Yu Jin saw that Tian Sheng was an old man over fifty years old, while Fan Fa was a young man. The two didn't look very eye-catching, but these two people had a good background.
The famous horse merchants in Changshun Trading Company have their own horse gangs, and are good at crossing states and provinces, and even go to the outside world. The Dashan Trading Company makes grain, oil and groceries, and is the best among Shanxi merchants.
It is no exaggeration to say that these three forces have to shake the territory of Shanxi three times in Shanxi. It is said that these three major commercial banks have also invested in Dasheng Silver and are very strong.
The ability to raise hundreds of thousands of taels of cash in a short period of time is absolutely amazing.
However, no matter how rich they are, they cannot compete with power. Shen Wansan in the early Ming Dynasty is the best example. He is rich enough to compete with a country, and he ends up miserably in the end.
Money but no power is just someone else and the fat pig to be slaughtered. Yu Jin gritted his teeth and divided the profits in the mirror, because he was afraid that he would have no life.
These three businesses were originally supporters of King Jing. When King Jing had an accident, he immediately looked for a new backer.
He is extremely decisive and accurate in his actions.
After receiving such a thick meeting gift, Yu Jin naturally couldn't show off his airs. After saying hello to them with a smile, he even asked someone to offer incense to the three fat sheep.
No, please be kinder to the guests.
After sitting down, he gave another compliment, which was nothing more than praising Yu Jin for his talent and great prospects. Yu Jin had heard these words for a long time, but he just responded to them in one sentence after another.
Seeing that the time was almost the same, Liang Shiqiu, Tian Sheng and Fan Fa looked at each other, and the three of them nodded slightly. Soon, Fan Fa walked up to Yu Jin, took out an envelope from his sleeve, and gently placed it in front of Yu Jin, and said flatteringly: "Young Master Yu, this is a little bit of our feelings for you, so please don't dislike me."
Looking at Fan Fa's solemn look, could this be a silver note?
Yu Jin smiled and pushed it back gently and said, "Shopkeeper Fan is so serious. He says he will not receive any reward without merit, and this is not acceptable."
Although money is good, some can be collected, and some cannot be collected. Yu Jin is still very clear about this.
Besides, there is no shortage of money now.
Liang Shiqiu smiled and said, "Mr. Yu, please accept this kind of care. This is what you deserve, and there are both merits and hard work."
Tian Sheng also echoed: "Mr. Yu is a cheerful person, so he won't hide it from the young one. Last time, the man named Yang borrowed from us. Thanks to Mr. Yu who set up a problem for him and asked him to trade in bank transactions in a short period of time. The man named Yang was helpless and borrowed from the three of us. We made a big profit just by making money. If it weren't for Mr. Yu, we wouldn't have benefited from this. They said that we should remember the source of water and say anything we said."
It's really funny. I didn't think about the source of drinking water before, but now I think about the source of drinking water, and it's clear that I'm afraid of being settled after the autumn.
Yu Jin said hesitantly: "This is not suitable. It is your luck to be able to do this business. If this happens, you have to ask you for benefits. If it is spread, it will make people laugh."
Liang Shiqiu immediately said: "No, no, no, this is what we took the initiative to offer to the young master. How can it be considered as asking for it?"
"That's right, this is just a little care, that is, some favors."
"If Mr. Yu doesn't accept it, he will look down on us." Tian Sheng and Fan Fa hurriedly agreed.
Yu Jin shook his head and said, "No, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. I have already received such a generous gift before, so it is not appropriate to accept it again."
When Liang Shiqiu and others saw that Yu Jin refused to stop, they couldn't help but turn their eyes to Cui Sanniang who was beside him. (To be continued.)
