Chapter 396 The Holy Majesty Summons
In fact, this can't be blamed on Mo Qianrui's generous remodeling of the pavement.

It's really because the merchants in Kyoto County are deceiving people too much!

Originally, as long as the location is good, it would be easy to sell a store with bad business.After all, no matter where it is, it is normal to sell the shop because of poor management.

Just think about it, which shop is well-opened and sold out in vain?
Of course, this kind of situation is not uncommon, but it is mostly because of an unexpected situation at home.

Even so, the value of the pavement has little to do with whether it was previously profitable.

Unexpectedly, what the Tang family is now encountering is the joint suppression of merchants.

What was the poor management in the past, why the guys were lazy and slippery, why the shop was too old, and there were even excuses for the backlog of goods and so on.

If you want Mo Qianrui to say, what kind of bullshit reason is this?
What she wanted to sell was just a simple storefront, and she didn't plan to sell the men and overstocked goods together.If the other party sincerely wants to buy it and find some excuses to bargain, Mo Qianrui can accept it, but...

Let's put it this way, a similar shop under someone else's name can sell for 2000 taels of silver. If the Tang family wants to make a move, they will be directly lowered to 200 taels of silver.

Although Mo Qianrui did not earn the property of the Tang family, she is not a fool. How could she agree to such an obvious price for bullying?
In addition, Tang Yanxiu didn't set a time before, so Mo Qianrui simply rolled up his sleeves and went to battle in person.

Although those reasons for lowering prices are a bit far-fetched, they are also real in the end.

That being the case, simply turn all the shortcomings into advantages, and see what nonsense those people have to say!
"Xiao Rui, you are really amazing, just continue like this. If you still have energy, can I give you some more work?"

"go away!"

Tang Yanxiu rolled away dejectedly, but rolled back not long after.At the same time, it also brought a shocking news.

"Xiaorui, the Holy Majesty wants to summon us."

……

Whoever the Holy Majesty wants to summon, no matter what that person is busy with, he has to rush forward.As for the Tang family, the Holy Majesty actually cared a lot, at least there was no malice.

Many generations of loyal ministers!
Perhaps some emperors would feel that their achievements were overwhelming, and they would have suspicions about some families of generals, but regarding the Tang family, the Holy Majesty did not have to worry at all.

Indeed, what is there to worry about?
The Tang family has always had few descendants, although it would not be exaggerated to the point of being a single descendant, but because most of the descendants were killed in battle, it is not as good as a single descendant if you think about it carefully.Especially in today's Tang family, there are only two heirs left, Tang Yanxiu and his little cousin, so the Holy One has nothing to worry about.

The reason why he sent someone to summon Tang Yanxiu was not the Holy Majesty's original intention.

Two years ago, because the Tang family was making too much noise, the Holy One couldn't stand it any longer. He simply dismissed the Tang family's uncle and gave him an inexplicable punishment. .

In fact, this is what it means to hang out with Uncle Tang's family, and it doesn't mean too much malice.

What the Holy One meant was that after two years, the uncle of the Tang family would pass the filial piety period, and the right and wrong in Jingdu County would naturally subside.At that time, just give Uncle Tang a casual job, and he will get away with it.The uncles of the Tang family are not very capable, and the Tang family is a loyal family, no matter what they do, they can't chill the hearts of the veterans.

Who would have thought that Uncle Tang died in Chongming County just like that, along with his eldest daughter.

When he heard about it for the first time, the Holy Majesty almost choked to death.

Fortunately, Tang Yanxiu returned to Jingdu County with Tang's aunt, mother and son, and the Holy Majesty breathed a sigh of relief.

As far as the Holy Majesty is concerned, the Tang family no longer has any powerful generals, and the remaining final use value is just to show his kindness to the veterans.If it was because of him, even if it was not his original intention, that the Tang family became extinct, or there were only orphans and widows left, that was not what he wanted to see.

On the other hand, Tang Yanxiu is still alive, and Tang Yanxiu's lineage is more correct than that of Tang's uncle, even though it is rumored that Tang Yanxiu does not have the bravery of his fathers, but instead inherited his mother's talent for business...

So what does that matter?
It's not my own child, and I don't have any expectations at all.

For the descendants of those veteran ministers, the Holy Majesty's expectation is very simple, there is only one thing.

Don't support your own self-respect, let alone overshadow the master.

It was precisely because of the low expectations that even if Uncle Tang caused trouble, His Majesty would only give a warning.Of course, what happened in Chongming County later was not what the Holy Majesty expected.The Holy Majesty's original intention was simply to let Uncle Tang stay for two years to calm down.

As for Tang Yanxiu today...

To be honest, it is really difficult for Tang Yanxiu to be self-respecting in support of soldiers, or to surpass the master with great achievements.

Maybe some awesome time travelers can easily gather a group of heroes to work for themselves after the time travel, and their arrogance is soaring.

But obviously, Tang Yanxiu was not this kind of person.

To be precise, the shopkeeper Li Da is the only person who is really willing to serve Tang Yanxiu because of Tang Yanxiu's charisma.Besides, maybe it wasn't because of Tang Yanxiu's charisma, it was simply because shopkeeper Li couldn't stand Tang Yanxiu, so he was forced to send him.

Anyway, from the standpoint of the Holy Majesty, Tang Yanxiu is very reassuring.

In particular, he also married a vulgar girl from the countryside!
Fortunately, Mo Qianrui didn't know what the Holy Majesty thought of him, otherwise...

Those who should kneel have to kneel, and there is no lack of proper etiquette.

……

After returning from the palace, Mo Qianrui's eyes were straight.Tang Yanxiu is better than her, not because Tang Yanxiu is well-informed, but because he hasn't been in the drama yet.

Although it was nominally the Holy Majesty who summoned Tang Yanxiu and his wife, in fact the two parties never spoke face to face.

Tang Yanxiu and Mo Qianrui were taken directly into the Imperial Study Room, and then... nothing more.

The Holy One glanced at them, then said three words, and let them kneel down.

Those three sentences are:
"It is worthy of having the style of being a father."

"A hundred taels of gold."

"Go down."

Half a day after Tang Yanxiu and his wife came back from the palace, Tang Yanxiu finally came to his senses, and couldn't help complaining.

"Xiaorui, what do you mean by the emperor? Tete called us into the palace, and after tossing and turning for so long, he just glanced at me and said something nonsense?"

"To be precise, it's three sentences."

"It doesn't matter how much he said, but what does he mean?"

Tang Yanxiu has a lot of experience in trying to figure out people's hearts, but after all, she is more transparent because she has more memories of a lifetime than others.But for someone who is not a normal person like the Holy One, he expressed deep powerlessness.

The only thing that is certain is that the Holy Majesty has no malice towards him.

Can……

"By the way, we can make good use of this matter!"

Thinking of the exhortations given to him by the head of the Duan family, Tang Yanxiu had already made up his mind not to stay in Jingdu County for too long.Therefore, the Tang family's property must be sold as soon as possible.But even if he was willing to calm down and sort out the industry bit by bit, he couldn't resist the merchants uniting to put pressure on the Tang family.

It is true that Tang Yanxiu studied business administration in his previous life, but he has never studied it. What should he do in the face of the joint suppression of many enterprises!
Now is a good opportunity.

Tang Yanxiu began to think about how to make good use of the summoning from the Holy Majesty, but Mo Qianrui was a little unhappy.

To be honest, she just started playing, and she hasn't enjoyed it yet, so she's going to sell it all?
Although he was a little unhappy, Mo Qianrui did not stop Tang Yanxiu.Although the Tang family's family business is not very large in general, it is too fragmented and messy.It would be impossible for the two of them to clear up the family business within a year or two.Not to mention, even if they really manage their family business well, then what?

Neither of them planned to live in Jingdu County for a long time, so it was inevitable to sell the Tang family's property.

Instead of packaging the family property beautifully and selling it at a low price, it is better to take advantage of the summons from the Holy One and sell it at a high price.

This outsider would not know that the Holy One called the two of them into the palace, but only uttered such three meaningless sentences.

After making up his mind, Mo Qianrui put his mind away and started to help Tang Yanxiu plan together.

First of all, it is a fact that the two entered the palace, and it is true that they were rewarded.

These two items alone are actually enough. After all, they just want to break the situation where the merchants are jointly suppressing, rather than bullying others.

After the planning was completed, each of them started to act. Sure enough, those merchants who had five people and six people in front of Tang Yanxiu and his wife were all scared.Even if they knew in their hearts that the Tang family might not be able to gain a foothold in the officialdom, sometimes a false prestige would be enough to deal with them.After all, it would be unreasonable for them to care about this matter.

However, what people didn't expect was that when the Tang family started to sell their business, people from the Wan family came to the door.

Tang Yanxiu and Mo Qianrui were both shocked when they heard the concierge's report.

Wanjia in Kyoto County.

Wanjia, one of the three great charity merchants in this dynasty, is as famous as the Duan family in Luyang County and the Hua family in Wanhua County.

It was also the family that the Patriarch of the Duan family told Tang Yanxiu thousands of times before, telling him not to offend.Even because of the existence of the Wan family, the Patriarch of the Duan family asked Tang Yanxiu not to stay in Jingdu County for a long time.It can be seen from this that Wanjia is definitely not easy to mess with.

After the two looked at each other in blank dismay, they finally welcomed him in.

Not to mention, the visitor is a guest, as long as it is not an enemy who has already torn his face, there is no reason not to let people in.

Fortunately, the one who came was not the main person of Wanjia, but just a steward.

"Patriarch of the Tang family, I have been instructed by my master to come here to discuss with you about the purchase of the shop." The steward was not pretentious, and made it clear when he opened his mouth.
