Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 693: The evolution of profiteers

Over there, Liu Wanxi straightened her eyes and saw the pain and regret on the shopkeeper's face. Even she felt that Mr. An's slap in the face was hearty, but she didn't expect such a reversal.

Xue Mu smiled and said: "You can recognize Mr. An's fabrics and workmanship. The shopkeeper of Qizhen Pavilion is well-informed, so of course there is no reason why he can't recognize it. In fact, you don't need to look at the material, the dandy has his own unique temperament. , I'm afraid these profiteers can see it at a glance, and they will immediately formulate a strategy to maximize the money they get from these young men. As for losing a little face, it doesn't matter to them, Zonghengdao can even call him dad for money, How much is face worth per pound?”

Liu Wanxi couldn't laugh or cry: "What about expulsion?"

"This shopkeeper is definitely a disciple of the Zonghengdao sect, a sect. How could he be fired for such a trivial matter? What if Young Master Tianan sees him sitting here again? Zonghengdao is a member of the four demon sects, and he is now the main force of the Alliance of Six Paths. , even if you let An Guogong himself come over, you have to expose this little thing, doesn't he, a young master, have to admit his defeat?"

"This young master's eyes are as bright as a torch." The voice of the deacon of Zonghengdao rang out as he strode towards them and said with a smile: "Young master has extraordinary knowledge. I don't know his surname. Let's make friends."

"No need." Xue Mu habitually took out the folding fan and clapped his palms, and said with a smile: "Make friends with Zonghengdao, I don't know when I will be sold, but I will help you count the money."

The deacon laughed: "We are not a sect that deceives the sky."

Xue Mu smiled and said: "Isn't this trick just now a way to deceive the sky?"

The deacon shook his head and said: "What you did just now can only be regarded as provocation, not fraud. In fact, it doesn't matter even if it is fraud. Dao belongs to Dao, and technique belongs to technique. The deception techniques used by our alliance leader are not small, and they have nothing to do with Dao. . We use fraud to make money, and it is just one of many ways to make money. If other methods are more profitable, we will immediately abandon the so-called fraud. How can we confuse it with the deceitful sect who regards this as a way? ?”

Xue Mu looked at him for a while and asked, "What is your surname?"

"Xiang Qian Jin, the manager of the Gyeonggi Province of Zongheng Road, met the young master and his wife." Xiang Qian Jin said with a smile: "There are many friends and many paths. Why don't you go into the inner room and have a cup of tea?"

Xue Mu did not refuse this time, and returned the favor with Liu Wanxi: "Then I'm sorry."

Xue Mu doubted whether this guy recognized him. He can be the manager of Zonghengdao Gyeonggi, and he is also a top executive of Zonghengdao on the same level as Lin Dongsheng. Despite his funny name, his conversation and knowledge are obviously different from ordinary people. After all, my acting skills may not be able to hide from these people, so it is not surprising to be recognized.

In fact, from the observation of this slap-in-the-face routine, it can indeed be seen that the model of Zonghengdao has changed, and more of them have begun to take advantage of their status, instead of always making a fuss about some low-level counterfeiting. He also wanted to learn more about the specific changes in Zonghengdao's business philosophy.

"This tea is called Yipin Qinggui. It is a new tea recipe given to our leader by the medical sage. It was successfully made not long ago." Xiang Qianjin brewed Kung Fu tea very skillfully and shared a cup with Xue Mu, Liu Wanxi and Eunuch Li. He smiled and said: "Everyone has a try."

This tea is definitely more expensive than gold, and it should never be used to entertain a stranger you meet for the first time. Xue Mu and Liu Wanxi looked at each other and stopped being polite. They both smiled and sipped tea leisurely. Eunuch Li habitually waited for Liu Wanxi to start drinking before he raised his glass and took a sip.

Seeing the way the two of them were drinking tea and Eunuch Li's reaction, Xiang Qian Jin's eyes flashed with joy and he said with a smile: "It's okay if you don't want to use the same name. If Xiang is not blind, you must be." A high-ranking official, his status is by no means lower than that of Mr. An just now."

Xue Mu smiled and said: "Is this why you are so friendly to us? It is said that Mr. An is already a distinguished figure in the capital, so why should you offend him and instead come to establish a relationship with us who are meeting for the first time?"

"Mr. An's so-called dignitary..." Xiang Qian Jin smiled slightly: "Do you two know what he bought that jade pen for?"

Liu Wanxi said curiously: "I really don't know."

"As far as I know, he performed well in the masked competition and entered the semi-finals. This money is probably used to bribe reporter Li and give him more coverage in the report." Xiang Qianjin said disdainfully: " Reporter Li is the propaganda mouthpiece of our alliance leader, how could he be bribed by such a small thing? It would be nice if I didn’t just slap him on the spot, this guy really doesn’t have any ideas."

"..." Xue Mu really wanted to say, is Li Xiaorui so high-end? Why don't I feel it...

Xiang Qian Jin added: "So what can be so noble about someone like him... What's more, the ancestors have not been in power for hundreds of years. They are just like the name of the tea. They are just noble and of no great use. Today's queen has lofty aspirations. This A large number of hard-working officials have been promoted in the past few days. They are all well-known capable ministers from various states and counties, and they have been mobilized to the capital. Judging from this situation, it is not known how long those moths can be free, so why bother to work on them."

Liu Wanxi laughed: "So you think of us as His Majesty's new ministers?"

"Isn't it? There are not many fresh faces in the capital with such magnanimity. The elegant posture of the two drinking tea does not seem to be that of warriors, and they do not seem to have high cultivation... not to mention that there are butlers around them. In addition to the new important ministers who have entered the capital, there are also Something else is possible.”

Liu Wanxi smiled and said: "As far as I know, your Zonghengdao is now responsible for the business cooperation of the entire alliance, and your business is your alliance's business. And your alliance, Xue Alliance, has the sovereignty of the world, and now it is no different from the regent. Well, if Guanshi Xiang has such a strong backer, why should he make friends with powerful people?"

Xiang Qian Jin smiled more and more: "Xiang has already said that many friends have many paths. Although Zonghengdao is responsible for the business of the entire alliance, he also has his own small business, and the alliance leader does not interfere with each company's self-operation. We cannot do it for I’ll bother our leader with all my family affairs.”

Xue Mu nodded. It is true that each family still has its own development. His Six Paths Alliance is not a parallel faction. There is no problem with Xiang Qian Jin's statement. It seems that they still want to take the route of collusion between government and businessmen?

Xiang Qianjin added: "You two don't have to suspect that Xiang wants to bribe officials to engage in illegal activities. To be honest, what our Zonghengdao wants to do now is definitely something that the Queen and our leader would like to see."

Xue Mu became interested: "I would like to hear the details."

"Nowadays, the capital is in depression, hundreds of industries are waiting to be prospered, and Yizhou is even more empty. Farming and mulberry farming must be encouraged everywhere to build the place. Now that the Queen has summoned capable ministers, she will definitely start to develop people's livelihood in an all-round way. We only need to know where the Queen wants to start. At the beginning, we can make preparations in advance. For example, if the Queen plans to persuade farmers first, we can prepare grain seeds first; if she plans to build construction first, we can prepare stones and wood first, and so on. This is endless money. We can We are just seizing the opportunity instead of hoarding. Although we are also trying to make money for ourselves, it will only make the Queen's New Deal more efficient and will never cause problems."

Xue Mu was stunned for a long time, but he has learned to follow the policy direction... I have to admire the self-evolution of the indigenous people. They will make the most beneficial adjustments according to the changes in the current situation and their own status. Many things are not necessary at all. As a time traveler, he was the first to do so.

Although it is still a profiteer's way that violates the principles of fair business, it is unrealistic for you to force fairness in this world and this era, especially for a profiteer's way that not long ago was making and selling fake goods to sell substandard goods and hoard them. Evolution It's a blessing to be in this direction, okay...
