Chapter 126 Calling to the Ladder-4
"Fourth Master, all those who make trouble have gone back."
Huang Yunheng nodded slightly and signaled that he knew, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. The tenants came to Huang's mansion to beg, kneeling in the ancestral hall, but Master Huang didn't take it seriously. He made trouble? The Huang family had high walls to protect the courtyard, and dozens of people were guarding the courtyard, and there were swords, arrows, crossbows, so he was not afraid of the troublemakers. They were the best rebellion. The hundreds of county regiments trained strong soldiers and horses, just to kill chickens for the monkeys to see. Master Huang was only worried that after the opening of the Sangyuan, these dissatisfied poor customers would make trouble in pieces. If it were normal, he would have to teach this lesson to cause trouble. However, Master Huang had more important customers, so he was generous and would not care about these poor customers.
"Is there anything wrong with Mr. Huang?" the guest surnamed Lu asked casually.
"A small matter," Huang Yunheng asked with a smile, "I'll ask for this batch of goods. When will it arrive?"
"It's five days later." Lu Changsheng looked around and whispered: "This batch of goods is only 30% of the price on the market. As long as Huang Yuanwai stocks up for a while, he will make a lot of money. Lu congratulates Yuanwai first." He picked up the teacup and took a sip, exhaled, and smiled, "Business is about credit, and Huang Yuanwai only needs to prepare silver."
"The next time there will be such a deal, Manager Lu will still think about Huang."
The two of them smiled and greeted each other for a few words, and the shopkeeper Lu got up and said goodbye. After Huang Yunheng sent him away from the small door, he summoned the butler Liu Saner and ordered: "Arranging the warehouse in the past few days. Five days later, a batch of important goods will be delivered to the farm."
"Don't worry, lord." Liu San'er said respectfully, "This is on the villain."
Huang Yunheng nodded and whispered: "Be careful, don't let people attract attention."
This batch of goods is incorrect, and it is undoubtedly a stolen goods. Qiu Darui, the owner of the shopkeeper Lu, had some friendship with Huang Yunheng, but his methods were far more ruthless than him. Huang Yunheng originally heard that he went to Guanxi to do business with the Liao Kingdom. Later, the Liao army went south and Qiu Darui contacted the southeast vendors to raise food and grass for him and plunder the people's wealth. Huang Yunheng took his way and made a fortune. After the Liao army retreated, Qiu Darui never appeared again. Huang Yunheng thought he retreated to Hebei with the Liao army, but his clinker came to him and introduced such a huge profitable deal.
"The goods are complicated, I'm afraid they're selling stolen goods, but I don't know which stolen goods it is?" Huang Yunheng pondered, "Is it the Liao army's retreat left behind? Or... When did the surname Qiu get involved with the pirates? This man is really good at thinking." After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of the reason. Although he was afraid, he could not bear the 70% of the profit. Although the profit of usury is high, the poor can no longer squeeze out oil. Otherwise, Huang Yunheng would not have to take back the land and renovate it into the mulberry garden.
"The goods have not been named, so don't care about it, the courageous ones are starved to death."
Huang Yunheng said to himself, suppressing the fear in his heart, leaning back on the recliner, breathing a sigh of relief, and closing his eyes.

The sky was gray and the rain drizzled. The boat was docking in Xuanzhou Prefecture. Manager Lu hurried down the dock with an oil-paper umbrella. There were few pedestrians on the bluestone road, and no one noticed his behavior. He hurriedly walked into Gaosheng Inn and dried the oil-paper umbrella under the blue and black eaves. The waiter welcomed him into the store with a flattering look. Manager Lu slowed down his hurried steps, looking slow, climbed the tower, and knocked lightly outside the Tianzi Room No. 1.
"Come in."
The sound made Manager Lu’s heart tremble slightly. He held his breath and pushed open the door, and the fragrance of Longnao came to his face.
Room No. 1 is facing south. Although it was raining on Yin, the room was still very bright, and the copper furnace was emitting cigarettes. The waiter said that the official who stayed in the hotel was very particular, but he didn't know that just a stick of incense was more than the wages he had earned for a month. In the faint smoke, a look came over. Lu Zhang stood at the right moment and said respectfully: "Boss, Huang Yunheng agreed. My subordinate made an appointment with him and delivered the treasure in five days."
The house was as quiet as empty, and the shopkeeper Lu did not dare to look up at the boss's face.
Qiu Darui hated others staring at his face the most because he only had one eye and the other. It is said that when the Liao and Song dynasties fought, a stray arrow pierced his eyeballs, and the strength was exhausted, and it almost penetrated his head. Manager Lu did not dare to look sideways. Qiu Darui also hated others staring at his sleeves, with the left and right hands cage in the sleeves, with four fingers left in one hand and three left in the other. That was when he was following the Mobei Merbu tribe to do business, he was frozen in a blizzard.
After the Liao army retreated, he took the risk of staying in Jiangnan, bribing, bribing, and threatening everything. Most of the industries he bought at an extremely low price when the Liao army invaded. He was seeking wealth and honor in danger, being cruel to himself and being even more cruel to others. This is the best proof. If not, how could he have experienced ups and downs and accumulated a wealth that is as rich as a country?
"It's done well." As soon as he praised, the shopkeeper Lu bowed and said, "It's all the face of the boss."
"Hmph, Huang Yunheng is a timid person. If you are not capable, I am afraid he will not dare to take it." Qiu Darui sneered, "But where is his family business? He can run away from the monks and cannot run away from the temple. If he does this time, he will not be able to do it in the future." There was a chill in his words, which made people shudder. Manager Lu clearly remembered that not long ago, a shopkeeper was tied up by the official Qiu and sank to the bottom of the sea because of his unfavorable work. The rich man in the country who was ignorant of being promoted was even more unaware of the whole family being killed by bandits.
"If it weren't for the fact that our goods were hidden in his doghouse, I wouldn't have praised Huang Yunheng, a rat."
Qiu Darui's hoarse voice was contemptuous and ordered: "I'll leave this to you. I'll go out these days."
"Yes." Manager Lu hurriedly agreed, "Don't worry, boss."
Qiu Darui waved his hand, and then the shopkeeper Lu left the door tremblingly. Looking at the closed door, Qiu Darui showed a look of disgust on his face. Since he was wanted by the Military Intelligence Department, he has never dared to walk outside in his original form. Over the years, he has become more and more accustomed to this kind of life. He has been mingling with the Mobei Barbarians for many years, and his mentality has changed a lot, and he regards the prevalence of the weak as an ordinary thing. For the sake of power and wealth, there is nothing that cannot be given up. He especially looks down on the Song people who are cautious and dare not disobey just because of the lives of his wife and children.
After a while, another confidant shopkeeper knocked in.
"Prepare to go to Hangzhou." Qiu Darui ordered, "I wrote to Guan Daren Pu, we have sold all this batch of goods."
"Yes." The shopkeeper agreed respectfully and prepared to go out for business.
"Slow down." The shopkeeper immediately stopped and waited respectfully, as if he was very accustomed to this situation.
One eye stared at the front, as if there was a trap, or as if there was a treasure. Qiu Darui was making the most important decision, he would never give himself too much time to hesitate. Just as the shopkeeper was waiting for a while, many considerations that had been hesitating for a long time passed in his mind. He took a deep breath and said, "Please tell me that I want to visit the Grand Governor of Faatu. Tell Master Pu that if this matter is done, I will thank you very much!"
The shopkeeper stepped down. Qiu Darui looked at the rain curtain outside the window, and a few swallows shrank into the nest under the eaves.
He narrowed his eyes and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He always felt that merchants could only make the fastest and most money when standing by a powerful force. Therefore, when he made money, he did not want to be separated from the strong man he was relying on. The closer he could stick was, the closer he could stick. Pu Abin said that after the Great Steamed Navy grabbed a big hand in Quanzhou, the upper and lower parts were very satisfied. Now he could only turn the wind and return to Dashi. However, Qiu Darui felt that this was not the best result. If the Great Steamed Navy could leave a portion of the warships and constantly harass the sea route between Song and Dashi, these merchants could not only help sell stolen goods, but also monopolize the treasure trade between Dashi and Song, that would be the real daily gold-making battle.

In Ezhou, in the palace, Zhao Qi looked at the palace servants kneeling all over the ground in the hall with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the villain is not capable, but the true minister has his own fate. These palace maids are all good women. When they come to the palace to serve Your Majesty, they are neither concubines nor slaves. If Your Majesty does not enthrone them as concubines, they will not be lucky. Even if Your Majesty wants to enthrone the concubines, they must comply with the etiquette and follow the laws of the ancestors. Only after the ceremony can they be lucky. Chen Xiangye said that any absurd things that Your Majesty does is a crime of seducing the villain around you. The nine-five masters are not punished by the court, so the villain will have to pay his Majesty the guilt. Your Majesty, you should be pitiful to the villain."
The eunuchs cried and kowtowed, and their foreheads were swollen. A palace maid had a pale face and her face was still a little childish. She hugged her knees and hugged her knees in the corner of the bedroom, looking at the scene in horror. Zhao Qi was always sick of a man, and he liked to be happy with a child. He had been wandering for a few years, and he was still worried about the demeanor of the king. The second big ceremony was about to be close, but he had almost nothing to do. The emperor's anger became more and more powerful, and gradually he had an old problem. Originally, he wanted to be lucky, so the palace maid accepted it with shame and resentment. Today, the palace maid was unwilling to do so. Not only did she struggle desperately, she also called for help, and she attracted the attendant. Zhao Qi was furious and ordered the attendant to hold the bitch's hands and feet. Clinking information about each of these attendants who dared to help, he knelt down and kowtow to persuade him. They persuaded him and carried him out of the prime minister's mansion to suppress him. It was simply rebellious.
"You, you," Zhao Qi pointed at the kowtow insects with a blue face, "Are you listening to the Prime Minister's Mansion? Or do you listen to me?"
A word was like a bolt from the blue, and no one in the room dared to interfere. In order to prevent the eunuchs from interfering in politics, the prime minister specially selected people who were ignorant to enter the palace, but no matter how simple the person was, he knew the fundamental power. The emperor was just the master's family, and even the palace maids could not be lucky at will, and it was even more impossible to execute the eunuchs. If the prime minister was guilty of the prime minister, it would be long before his life. However, such thoughts could only be in the heart, and no one dared to say it. The beheading machine was standing at the Zhuqi Gate, and several eunuchs had seen beheadings.
