[Comprehensive] The five elements are short of money

Wan Fang, the magistrate, was furious when he received the reply from Xue's family, smashed the study room in anger, and said viciously: "Shuzi, dare you! You bully people too much! You bully people too much! This official is the official of Jinling's parents, an empress Ziwei who has passed away, dare to Offend this official!"

Wan Fang circled around in the study and said angrily, "We must teach him a lesson! We must teach him a lesson."

Wan Fang was so angry that his confidants became calmer and said with a slight smile: "The proprietor is right, how are you planning to deal with the Xue family?"

Wan Fang gasped and couldn't answer, the staff analyzed: "Cut off the Xue family's business? After returning from the capital, the business has been fully contracted. Now in Jinling City, except for the few shops that have a joint venture with the nobles of the capital, all the shops are closed. How can the proprietor suppress it? Or find a crime to be charged on Xue's head? Don't forget, my lord. No matter how poor the Xue family is, the house they live in now was bestowed by the Taizu. Your Majesty has no regrets for the Xue family by accepting the General Secretary. Your Excellency has forced you too hard, so what will His Majesty think of you? The Xue family is weak, and now there are only three bedrooms , the head of the family, Xue Xun, is just a husband and wife, and the old house is shrunk. Xun's uncle, even in Jinling, can't threaten Xue Xun."

Wan Fang was discouraged, and asked: "Could it be that I can't vent my anger?"

"My lord has a lot of people, so why bother with a small Xue family? A business that is doomed to decline is not worth your troubles. Your prime minister can hold a boat, and your lord has a lot of people. Just don't care about them." The staff knew clearly, The Xue family is so slippery, it's not because they are on guard, and the Xue family doesn't have a front and back view, so they can only have other plans.Thinking of the recent situation in the imperial court, and thinking about why the Xue family lost the General Secretary, the staff deeply felt that the most important thing at this time was to keep a low profile.

"What about Mr. Tian's matter?" Wan Fang stomped his feet and said, he made things difficult for the Xue family just to get rid of Mr. Tian's killing.

The staff were speechless, unable to think of a way, they just said: "Don't be impatient, the proprietor, let's delay for a while, the car must have a way to the front of the mountain."

Soon, Wan Fang no longer had to worry about Mr. Tian's affairs.

The court officially issued a residence report, and the prince supervised the southeast sea battle.Someone from Beijing took away Mr. Tian's body, and the navy directly hung Mr. Tian's body on the mast of the treasure ship, claiming that Mr. Tian was evidence of Qianxiang's conspiracy, spied on me to investigate the military situation, and killed civilians. Qian Xiangguo gave an explanation.

The Qianxiang Kingdom is not a soft persimmon either. They obviously wanted to find an excuse to go to war, but they let the Central Plains Dynasty take the lead, tit-for-tat and blame our dynasty for cruelty, distorting facts, and turning black and white. They will never allow the dignity of Qianxiang Kingdom to be insulted.Send people to sneak into our fleet at night, trying to bring back Mr. Tian's body.

The team that stole the corpse was discovered, and as a result, the two countries went to war.

Now that the war broke out, the Chamber of Commerce in Jinling City would not be able to run. People from the Qianxiang country came to participate in the Chamber of Commerce. If the Chamber of Commerce did not guarantee them, they would be torn to pieces by the angry people.The two countries did not fight each other, but the atmosphere was really bad. The people of Qianxiang pretended to escape, ignoring Wanfang's rare goodwill.

Once the Qianxiang people left, the rest of the people couldn't stay anymore. The Ryukyu Kingdom is also at sea, and it is too easy to become a pond fish for innocent people. Even businessmen are also businessmen from the motherland. They rushed back one after another, trying to find a way to return to their homeland , Contribute to the country.

Other foreigners thought that the war started with the intention of showing off the power of the Central Plains to them, and they also left one after another.The outsiders have almost left, and this "Wan Guo" chamber of commerce is naturally not worthy of its name.The merchants of this dynasty knew very well that once a war started, what they were fighting was money, and if they were still showing off their wealth here, they would definitely be "conscripted" by the court, so they all bowed their heads and left Jinling in a low-key manner.

A vigorous International Chamber of Commerce ended in such a sad way, and businessmen from all over the place left in despair.

Xue Xun was so angry that he smashed the teacup, and said: "I don't have any courage. Is it time to retreat? Once they retreat, it will be even more difficult for businessmen to do anything in the future! A group of idiots can't survive together Do you understand! Now that the family donates a little, supports the naval battle, and walks to the front, taking advantage of the righteousness, how can the imperial court recruit again regardless of public opinion? Why is there no one doing things that earn fame and avoid disasters!"

Xue Xun had objections to the chamber of commerce not bringing the Xue family to play, and he was making small moves, but he never hoped that the chamber of commerce would fail.He is also a businessman, what good is it for him to destroy the industry environment and lower the social status of employees.I didn't expect the world to change so quickly, almost in a state of destruction, and the impressive International Chamber of Commerce came to an end without a problem.

"Master has a far-sighted vision, which is not comparable to those of the merchants, but master forgot, no one takes the lead!" Golden Beast flattered: "The five families who initiated the chamber of commerce refused to accept it, and wanted to leave our Xue family to do things. If there is no leader, how can I do it?" Unify opinions and appease all parties, how can this disunity be accomplished?"

Xue Xun stomped his feet and sighed when he heard the words, as if it was an afterthought.

There was a sound of notification at the door, and copper coins came to say goodbye.

Xue Xun has four long followers, Gold Beast, Silver Frost, Iron Blood, and Copper Coin. Gold Beast is a butler reserve, in charge of food, clothing, housing, transportation, communication, and assisting Xue Xun in handling official affairs, similar to a secretary.Yinshuang is responsible for contacting the Secretary of General Administration, and he is also in charge of the "ears" buried in the shop of the Xue family, collecting information for Xue Xun.Sangvis is in charge of guards, protecting caravans and homes.Copper Coin is a real veteran in business. Xue Xun sent him out this time, mainly to cooperate with Xue Yue's transfer and concealment, so as not to let the prince catch him.

Jin Beast and Yin Shuang grew up with Xue Xun, and they have the deepest love and iron blood.Copper money is about ten years older than Xue Xun, and it is the help that Master Xue left for him.

The copper coins entered the door and bowed, and said: "Master, everything is ready. The subordinates will set off tomorrow morning, take the road, and reach the coast in seven days or so. The Xue family has a stronghold on the coast, which can avoid the eyes and ears of the navy and go directly to Annan."

"Well, pay attention to safety on the road. Things you bring can be lost, but people can't be troubled. Safety is the top priority. If you can't avoid the navy, you can bluntly say that it is donated to the court. I allow you to do things cheaply. When you arrive in Annan, everything will be under the command of the second young master. , try not to conflict with the natives, and keep it secret." Xue Xun urged.

"Yes, this subordinate will leave." The copper coin saw that Xue Xun had no other orders, and bowed to leave.

Xue Xun sighed. The copper money was caught up as a follow-up person. As early as ten days ago, Xue Yue returned to the old Jinling house. There was a time difference, and he just avoided the timing of the war between the imperial court and Qianxiang Kingdom.

Xue Yue is a dark-skinned man, nearly five years younger than Xue Xun, but he looks more mature than Xue Xun. The sunshine on the sea has tempered him into a man of steel and iron.Although he has a city in his chest, he respects Xue Xun as an elder brother.

Xue Xun secretly led him to the family temple to offer incense to Master Xue, and formally handed over all the power of the Xue family in the southeast coast to him.Now that the war is going on, it is not easy to exchange supplies, but Xue Yue brought back a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, all of which were obtained in exchange for silk, porcelain and tea from the Central Plains.

Xue Xun rejoiced in his heart that Mr. Xue's first wife died early. After his first wife passed away, Xue Xun's aunt came to power. I don't know if Mr. Xue suppressed his wife. Not even one aunt could stand it. Not long after giving birth to Xue Yue, Xue Xun died. After that, Mr. Xue has no heirs.In the back house, the two brothers have depended on each other since they were young, and there is no situation where other family members are incompatible.

Once a war starts, the situation is out of control.Every day, Xue Xun received information about how many people died in the naval battle, and how many forces were liquidated and reorganized.As a result, the appointment and removal of officials changed frequently. Wan Fang, who once wanted to trouble Xue Xun, was transferred to the capital.

Xue Xun was startled when he received the news. Jinling is not the place to start the war. Is it necessary to send Shi Guilai, who is a martial artist who is familiar with war and has been on the battlefield?He is the son of the Marquis who is sure, the title of Marquis Baoling is hereditary, and Shi Gui has a high status, why did he give up the battlefield, become a civil servant, and come to Jinling?

When Xue Xun received the news, he quickly discussed with Xue Wang. As a local snake, he always had to show an attitude.Just write to Shigui to remind him that he can't confuse his conscience.

At this time Xue Wangshi was already six months pregnant, but Xue Xun still had to disturb her.

"Brother Shi Gui, the eldest son of Baoling Hou, is about to go to the prefect of Jinling. He brought his family with him this time. I heard that Mrs. Li was pregnant on the way. Our two families are on good terms. When Mrs. Li arrives, how can you comfort her? You all She is pregnant, so I have something to say, how about it?"

"Brother Hao, don't worry." Xue Wang said with a smile. Since she was pregnant, Xue Xun has strictly guarded against death. She needs the doctor's approval for everything. In fact, after three months, Xue Wang feels that her body is much better than before. Now The amount of exercise every day is more than the previous month in the boudoir.Xue Xun was willing to let her do something, and Xue Wang couldn't ask for it, so he just thought it was letting her go.

"Then let's make an agreement first. Every time you go out, you should bring at least two maids by your side. The second and third class maids should also be brought with you according to the configuration. If you go out, you must be accompanied by a guard, and you are not allowed to throw away the servants without permission." Xue Xun nodded. Pointing at the tip of Xue Wang's nose, he is 20 years old, and the rebellious period came too late. He left the servants at home several times and acted alone, scaring the maids and mothers into a mess.

"Oh, it's just once~ I know, I beg Mr. Xue to have a lot, and bypass me." Xue Wang was blessed and bowed, muttering: "My ears are callused."

"Only one or two times?" Xue Xun raised his eyebrows, three, four, five, six, seven, eight times, it's hard to count.

Wang Xue bowed her head and said nothing, she didn't know what was going on, the more gentle and tolerant Xue Xun treated her, the more she acted, so hypocritical, she didn't know where the virtuous and virtuous A Su had gone.

Xue Xun said so, but he was still worried about the stubbornness of the plot.How did Shi Guiru, the eldest son of Baolinghou, pass away? There are many speculations in later generations. Some people say that he died of illness when he was young, some say that he died in battle, and some say that he was involved in the succession, but he did not stay after all. There is only one male heir, Shi Xiangyun, who is about the same age as Jia Baoyu.

What about the child that Mrs. Li conceived this time?Either not born or not grown up.The historian made his fortune in Jinling and went to be the magistrate of Jinling. It was like returning home. Could it be that he couldn't protect his wife and children?How dangerous it is, every guess shakes Xue Xun's nerves, and he dare not be careless.
