The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 711
The situation in Zhili City became worse and worse. After the Fu Yin didn't find out that the Hongli brothers had entered the city, he chose to close the city directly, preparing to stabilize the situation in the city, and then opened the city gate.

Fu Yin didn't know the specific actions of the princes, but he knew that the Lord Long Live had arrived, and if they hadn't really rectified it, some of their appropriations would definitely be delayed in the future.

Hongli walked on the street with Zarafin. The merchants on both sides looked tired, and all their products were basically out of stock.On the street, there are not many foods that are actually sold for sale, and they are basically things that don't use flour.

"Master, did we come here by mistake?" Zarafin asked curiously.

"Why is it wrong??" Hongli looked at Zarafin, "Didn't you buy a lot of things before?"

"Ah, near the street, there are a lot of delicate snacks. The food should be too expensive, so ordinary businesses don't come here." Zarafin followed Hongli and walked towards the commercial street. After walking, I found that many shops along the street had been destroyed.

Hongjun stood at the door with a very depressed expression on his face. Seeing Hongli and Zarafin approaching, he rushed to meet them.

Hongli didn't pay attention to it at all, and walked forward directly with Zarafin.

At this moment, Hongjun looked calm, but he was very anxious in his heart, hoping that Hongli could help him find a way.

"In a while, let Hongjun come over, just remember to let him come through the back door." After Hongli arrived in the private room, he explained to Erlu and said.

Erlu took the order and left, Hongli turned his head and looked at Zarafen: "Jiaojiao, don't stand by the window, let's wait for Hongjun to come over in the private room."

Zarafin sat beside Hongli, and heard Bayan talking, many of the high-quality pastries on the street have been closed, and many shops have been smashed and looted by so-called refugees up.

"Has the governor arrested those people?" Zarafin frowned slightly, the governor's ability has yet to be determined.

"Yes, but it's not very strong. I even said that some people can't be found at all, and those people have already left." Guan Ya'an shook his head.

After hearing this, Zarafin's face became gloomy: "Those people were shot by the imperial merchants and salt merchants?"

"Yes, moreover, there are salt merchants from the Huai merchants, not all of them, but a few of them used improper means." Bayan replied politely.

"That's right, Huai merchants in my shop dared to do something, and they lost tens of thousands of taels of silver in one day." Hongjun opened the door and came in, just in time to hear Zarafin's words, and he was in a bad mood.

"Hongjun. Why did you show your face in public? Shouldn't the people below solve it?" Hongli looked at Hongjun and said.

After hearing Hongli's scolding, Hongjun lowered his head and let Hongli talk beside him.

At this moment, he didn't regret showing up at all. If he didn't show up, the shop would not be able to keep.

"Fourth brother, I know what you said. Even my sister-in-law's shop uses silver to buy peace. Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion will donate no less than seven figures of silver every year under the persuasion of the governor. Doing good deeds, how much profit can my grain store have, can it compare with these two places?" Hongjun knew the shops here, and he was really aggrieved by Zarafen.

Hongli looked at her in surprise. Since opening the door for business, Zarafin seldom talked about business matters. At the end of the year, he only paid for himself.

"This is not what it should be. Since the benefits have been earned from the common people, it is only right to return this part of the benefits to the common people." Zarafin's business experience has some modern minds. In the eyes of Hongjun and others, it is completely wrong. Find it yourself.

"Little sister-in-law, are you sure it's the right thing to do?" Hong Yun was stunned.

Zarafin nodded: "Of course, I'm not sure, I won't do it at all, Hongjun, you always look at the benefits in front of you, why don't you see the benefits in the future?"

Hongli sat aside and listened to the two talking about the business scriptures, and he looked at Zarafin differently in his heart.

"Fourth brother, if my sister-in-law does business in the future, let me participate, even if it's running errands for my sister-in-law, I can do it." Hongjun prefers business matters. Nang's business will definitely not be as big as it is now.

Hongli was thinking, in the future, Zarafin must be trapped in the palace, and that palace wall would trap her, and he didn't want her to lose her strength.

"Okay, in the future you will come to Jiangnan to do business, and it will be great to help Zarafin look after the shop." Hongli said directly.

Zarafin laughed unkindly when he heard that, and Hongjun was in a dark line. It turned out that Hongli still let him deal with the official affairs.

"Fourth brother, is what you said true?" Hongjun asked Hongli, looking at Hongli.

"Yes, you and I can't be decadent for me anymore. We must be on errands. I brought the two of you here this time so that you can charge forward." Hongli looked at Hongjun and said.

Hong Yun's black line, not long after the two brothers spoke, Hong Xu rushed in directly.

"Brother Hongjun, I, fourth brother, you are here!" Hongxu came in and saw Hongli, and immediately behaved himself, not as unruly as he saw Hongjun just now.

"Hong Xu, why did you come here to play?" Hong Yun asked curiously.

"Brother Hongyun, didn't I go to your shop and found that your shop is basically closed. I thought something happened. Who would have thought that it would be smashed and robbed." Hong Xu was a little ready to move.

Ordinarily speaking, in terms of tactics, Hong Xu would definitely not be able to. If he swung his fist, no one would be his opponent.

"Stop, now is not the time for you to be brave, old nine, the Fu Yin has not passed yet, you just keep your mouth shut over there, and you are not allowed to reveal your identity." Hongli is going to temporarily let the shopkeeper take over the bag.

"Fourth brother, when Bayan passed by, he already told me that there will be no problem." Hongjun promised.

While the few people were talking, many government servants were stationed in the commercial street. Zarafin sat in front of the window with Jiu Fujin and Shi Fujin, staring at the people outside the street. All three of them were wearing caps and holding teacups Drinking tea is the same as the female relatives here in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Little four sister-in-law, you see that Fu Yin actually came here for the master. Fortunately, the fourth brother called the master over, otherwise, he would definitely have confronted those people." Jiu Fujin muttered directly.

Hong Xu Fujin looked at Jiu Fujin suspiciously: "Sister-in-law, how do you know that you are looking for Brother Jiu and not someone else?".

After Fu Yin's sedan chair dropped, the servants actually searched the shops one by one. Hongli arranged for someone to cover the position of the female relatives with a screen. When the servants pushed them away, Hongli and others seemed to be friends who came to meet the guests We did it completely according to the rules in the south.

The yamen servants just looked around politely and left directly.
