Traveling across the heavens starting from the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 35 We are an aristocratic family, and we must inherit poems and books from one family to another. We must be polite before fighting.
"I didn't expect Brother Tiancheng's Cui family to also notice this shop selling colored glaze in Chang'an City."

The head of the Taiyuan Wang family held the paper in his hand and looked at Cui Tiancheng, who was in the first place.

Then there was a look of clarity.

too.

They are all aristocratic families with five surnames and seven hopes. Although each family is far apart, each family has its own layout in Chang'an City. It makes sense to notice the existence of such a shop selling colored glaze in Chang'an City.

"Is what this paper says true?"

"A shop that only sells a piece of glass can actually have a surplus of 500 million silver coins in a month?"

"I'm afraid it's not fake."

"The total amount of colored glaze that has flowed into the Tang Dynasty in the past year, if we put it all together, we probably won't have this much money to sell it."

"Can have 500 million silver coins."

The heads of the other five families had not yet received news about Liulice Pavilion from their own news network, so they were a little unbelievable about the records related to Liulice Pavilion in their hands. They all looked at Cui Tiancheng and the first one just now. The head of the Wang family who spoke wanted to seek answers.

"Everyone, we need to further confirm whether this paper is true or not. Regardless of whether it is true or not, even if the silver surplus earned by this Liuli Pavilion in a month is only half of what is on paper, it is enough for the seven of us to take it seriously. .”

"In any case, the Liulic Pavilion's annual silver surplus is enough to cover the Tang Dynasty's annual taxes."

"As for the total amount of colored glaze that flowed into the Tang Dynasty in the past years, whether it can be compared with the colored glaze owned by this Liulic Pavilion, you can listen to Brother Wang of the Wang family."

"Cui heard that a certain wife from Brother Wang's Wang family is a jade-level patron of Liuli Pavilion. She should know more about this Liuli Pavilion than we do."

"Brother Wang, please tell everyone."

Cui Tiancheng explained a few words and then motioned to the head of the Wang family to take over what he had just said.

The head of the Wang family sat in his seat, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

"Since Brother Tiancheng asked me to say it, then I will say it."

"Same as Brother Tiancheng, ever since I learned that a woman from my Wang family bought a rare glass mirror from Liulic Pavilion."

"My Wang family has already secretly conducted an investigation into the newly opened Liuli Pavilion in Chang'an City."

"Based on my Wang family's investigation of Liuli Pavilion, the total amount of Liuli currently held by Liuli Pavilion may have exceeded the total amount of Liuli that flowed into the Tang Dynasty in the past ten years."

"The weight of the largest glass mirror my family bought from Liulic Pavilion alone is enough to equal the total amount of glass flowing into the Tang Dynasty in a year."

"What's more, the colored glazes sold in the Glazed Pavilion are exquisite in workmanship, crystal clear in material, and superb in technology. They are rare in the world and are rare treasures."

"Especially with the glass mirror that can reflect the whole body."

"With the background of my Wang family, I don't even have the ability to get such a huge glazed mirror."

"In the past few days, I have also sent people from the Wang family to secretly follow this Liuli Pavilion. I want to see where the owner of this Liuli Pavilion obtained the colored glaze, or where it was made."

"Based on my guess, the owner of the Liuli Pavilion should have acquired the technology to manufacture colored glaze in large quantities."

"And..."

The reason why I told you everything about Liuli Pavilion.

It's because all seven of their families are related by marriage, and the families have become so intertwined that it's hard to tell them apart.

Even the heads of the families here have half of the blood of one of the other six families flowing through them because of their mothers.

Now that the Cui family in Qinghe has noticed Liuli Pavilion in Chang'an City, there is nothing to hide.

Simply.

Say it all.

It would be better for the seven families to get together and see how they can quietly take over the Liulic Pavilion into the hands of their family, so as not to accidentally leak the information and fall into the hands of other families.

The most important thing is not to fall into the hands of the Tang royal family.

On this big issue of right and wrong.

As the head of the Wang family in Taiyuan, he still knows how to take care of the overall situation.

For the status of the family.

Will not behave like a solitary eater.

After listening to the story of the head of the Wang family.

The head of the Li family in Zhao County stared at the paper in his hand and asked, "Did Brother Wang find anything?"

"I didn't find anything. People from my Wang family have followed me for a long time. The owner of Liuli Pavilion lives a very regular and simple life. On weekdays, he is usually either in Liuli Pavilion or in his own house, with the maids in the house. Playing, looking like he is seeking pleasure, does not look like he can build a Liuli Pavilion."

The head of the Wang family shook his head and took out the information that his men had investigated.

"so."

The head of the Li family in Zhao County said softly and stopped talking.

"Brother Wang, the wife of your family bought a glass mirror that can reflect the whole body. Can you tell me how much it is worth? Let us judge the situation of this glass pavilion."

After the head of the Li family in Zhao County asked, the head of the Li family in Longxi who was sitting aside then started asking.

"Of course you can, Brother Li. The glass mirror that my wife bought for her whole body cost a hundred thousand in total."

"One hundred thousand?"

"No, it's 10 taels of gold."

"One million silver coins?"

"What kind of glass mirror can be worth 10 taels of gold?"

"Is this Liuli Pavilion trying to make money or robbing money? This is probably more ruthless than those robbers who rob homes and rob people of money."

"."

a time.

A glass mirror costs 10 taels of gold.

The room was filled with exclamations of surprise.

In addition to Cui Tiancheng, the head of the Wang family, and Zhang Shiren, they were not too shocked because they had known each other for a long time.

The other five family heads and Cui Yu didn't know the price of the Liuli Realm that could illuminate the whole body. They were all shocked when they heard the price.

Although these five family heads were shocked, they also became determined to carve up the subordinates of Liuli Pavilion.

Cui Yu, who was left, realized that the things he bought at the Liuli Pavilion owned by Li Huaian's friend were so expensive and were considered extravagant.

Compared with this glass mirror worth 10 taels of gold, the wooden box of glass jewelry he and his wife brought back when Liulic Pavilion opened was really ordinary.

Come to think of it, it really doesn't matter in Liuli Pavilion.

No wonder his friend didn't care about thousands of taels of gold jewelry and just gave it away.

Cui Yu was a little doubtful of herself at this time.

Is he a child of a wealthy family, or is Li Huaian the real child of a wealthy family? No matter how you look at it, Li Huaian's attitude of not caring about money makes him look more like a child of a wealthy family than him.

But judging from the current situation, the heads of the seven families gathered in Cui Mansion to discuss the matter of Liuli Pavilion, which made him feel that Li Huaian was not a descendant of a wealthy family.

I'm afraid he's not even a member of a small aristocratic family.

Otherwise, the heads of the seven families wouldn't have to go to such trouble to get together to discuss the Liuli Pavilion matter, and they could have settled the matter in private.

A small aristocratic family cannot hold on to such a profitable Liuli Pavilion, let alone the pressure from any of the five surnames and seven houses.

In this world.

Sometimes it's complicated.

Sometimes it's simple.

But more of it is cruel.

Even if it's your stuff.It doesn’t have to be your thing.

As long as you are unable to protect your things, then your things are just being looked after by real carnivores for a while, just to pass through your hands.

The reason why aristocratic families can be called aristocratic families is because they also have another name, that is, they are powerful and powerful, and they are the real carnivores in the family.

otherwise.

How does a wealthy family achieve inheritance for generations to come?

Unfortunately.

The seven family heads in this room are the seven largest aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty. The family heads with the fifth surname and Qi Wang are the helmsmen of the largest powerful family in the world.

He is the most carnivorous among the carnivores in the entire Tang Dynasty.

thought here.

Cui Yu has silently given up the idea of ​​​​dealing with Li Huaian to save her last dignity.

Even if you don't think about your family.

Just look at the attitude of the uncle and the six family heads towards Liuli Pavilion.

These seven family heads have already decided to take over the Liuli Pavilion.

No one can stop it.

If Li Huaian could hand over the Liuli Pavilion honestly and not hide the source of the Liuli in his possession, he might still be able to survive.

Just when Cui Yu was in trouble for Li Huaian.

The seven family heads have almost reached their conclusion.

Cui Tiancheng looked at Cui Yu and ordered: "Xiao Yulang, Xiao Yulang, I will leave the rest to you."

"what."

"Oh."

"Uncle, what have you entrusted to me?"

Cui Yu came to his senses, stood up, and looked at his uncle who called him.

He was distracted just now and didn't listen carefully to the conversation of the seven family heads. Naturally, he didn't know what the uncle asked him.

"What else could it be?"

"I heard from Zhang Shiren that on the first day Liuli Pavilion opened, I saw you and your wife being the first to visit Liuli Pavilion. You were also familiar with the owner of Liuli Pavilion, the man named Li Huaian."

"So, next, you will represent our seven families and come to meet this friend of yours."

"Salute first, then soldiers."

"Although we are an aristocratic family, we cannot take anything by force. After all, our Five Surnames and Seven Hopes rely on heirlooms of poems and books, so we still need to have the proper etiquette."

"We can't let people think we are robbers."

"It's robbery by force."

Cui Tiancheng finished speaking.

Another head of the Fanyang Lu family added.

"Little Yulang of the Cui family, things need to be done faster. It's too slow. If the Tang Dynasty court notices and the royal family knows about the existence of Liuli Pavilion, there will be changes in the control of Liuli Pavilion by the seven of us."

The head of the Zheng family in Xingyang nodded.

"Little Yulang of the Cui family, what your uncle Lu family said is right. This is Chang'an City after all, not the ancestral home of each family. We can't make long-term plans, and we can't hide the secret for a long time. This matter can be done sooner rather than later. It can be done as soon as possible. Okay, we seven families can protect Liuli Pavilion as soon as possible."

"This."

Cui Yu was a little embarrassed.

The head of the Bolingcui family, who was silent on the side, saw this and looked at the son-in-law of the Bolingcui family in front of him, who showed some hesitation and embarrassment.

So he spoke to persuade.

"Xiao Yulang, there is no need to be embarrassed. All the uncles know that you are familiar with the owner of Liuli Pavilion, but think about it. Such a Liuli Pavilion is in the hands of a businessman like him. There is no support behind him. Our seven families cannot If you take it, other aristocratic families will come to take it in the future."

"Even if you can use your reputation as the Cui family of Qinghe to protect your friend, it will be difficult to block the prying eyes of all aristocratic families."

"This is still a relatively good situation."

"If your friend's Liuli Pavilion is controlled by the royal family or taken away by the Tang Dynasty, it will be a big blow to the seven of us."

"You should also know that compared to our seven families, the aristocratic family does not have many bargaining chips. The Tang Dynasty court and the royal family have a lot of chips at their disposal, and they also occupy the great righteousness of the Tang Dynasty today."

"Today's saints can give up a worthless title of Tang Dynasty to exchange for all the things about Liuli Pavilion with your friend."

"Think about it, for a Tang Dynasty noble title, Liuli Pavilion is not very important to a merchant."

The head of the Boling Cui family paused for a moment, waited for Cui Yu to think for a moment, and then said.

"Think about it now. Rather than letting your friend's Liuli Pavilion fall into the hands of the royal family or the Tang Dynasty, it would be better for it to fall into our hands. Think about it for the sake of our seven families."

"As long as you can persuade your friend to hand over the Liulic Pavilion to our Seventh Family, in the future, with you in the middle, our Seventh Family will not treat your friend too badly."

"Yes, my Taiyuan Wang family can guarantee it."

"The same goes for the Li family in Longxi..."

"The Li family of Zhao County..."

"Fan Yang..."

"Xingyang..."

"Xiao Yulang, on behalf of the Qinghe Cui family, my eldest uncle also promises you that as long as your friend can hand over the Liulic Pavilion completely, our Qinghe Cui family will compensate your friend."

In order to obtain the financial resources of this incredibly wealthy country, the seven family heads with the five surnames and Qiwang all made promises and guarantees.

Cui Yu stood up and looked at the focused eyes of all the uncles in front of him. He did not dare to hesitate any more and bowed to accept the order.

"Yes, my nephew will definitely be the pioneer for all uncles, for the sake of the family."

Done.

Without waiting for the head of the Seven Family to smile.

Cui Yu stood up and begged: "Uncles and nephews can go talk to friends about the Liulic Pavilion, but uncles must also promise to nephews that during this period, uncles cannot use other means to cause harm. Liuli Pavilion, something that hurt my nephew’s friend.”

for this requirement.

As the eldest uncle, Cui Tiancheng and the six family heads naturally agreed.

"Xiao Yulang, this is natural."

"rest assured."

"Until your lobbying is over, my uncles will definitely not resort to other means."

Seeing that all the uncles present agreed, Cui Yu was relieved. Seeing that there was nothing to do with him in the room, he planned to leave and go back to his yard to make some preparations.

"Uncles and nephews, please take your leave first."

Wait for Cui Yu to leave.

The head of the Wang family in Taiyuan said: "Although Xiao Yulang of the Cui family has agreed to lobby his friend, you should not take it lightly. Once Xiao Yulang's friend does not agree and the two turn against each other, we must be prepared in advance and will Take down the entire Liuli Pavilion quickly."

"Even if we can't take it, we must destroy the entire Liuli Pavilion as soon as possible. We can't let Liuli Pavilion fall into the hands of the royal family and become a bargaining chip against the seven of us."

"it is good."

The other six families had no objections to the proposal of the head of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

As for Zhang Shiren, who was still present, he had already cowered in a corner in fear. Only now did he realize how funny his previous greed for Liulic Pavilion was to the seven family heads in front of him.
