Die For Life

After two weeks, Qin Leyin once again came to the "Chaofeng Pavilion".

Today's invitation is in the name of dinner. The last ray of sunset touches Xuanzhu County by the sea, the light falls on the bustling outer city, and the shadows remain in the quiet and tidy inner city.

Standing in the shadow, Qin Yueyin has red hair, but it is more colorful and charming.

He looked into the distance, Xuanzhu County in his vision was divided into two parts by nature.

One is above and one is below.

One is in the dark and the other is in the light.

One extends outward, and one shrinks inward.

Many ordinary scenery, in unusual days, will be seen differently by people who are in the process of change.

"God's will." He chuckled softly: "It's hard to break."

The servant at the door respectfully brought Qin Leyin to the VIP compartment inside. Just like the last time, it was already filled with familiar old faces, either the president of the Chamber of Commerce who had been up and down for many years, or the young handsome who lashed out at Fang Qiu.

It's just that it's different from the last time they were full of confidence in "Zhan Jing Mie Ting", Qin Leyin walked in, no one greeted him, everyone was thinking and drinking.

In their eyes, there is confusion, sorrow, confusion, and confusion.

Although they were dressed in brocade and silk, they drank good wine and ate delicacies, they were in a luxurious restaurant, surrounded by well-behaved and obedient waitresses.

But they seem,

Just like the untouchables they despise, there is no difference.

Qin Leyin sat down unchanged, refused the waitress' request to wait, glanced at the empty theme, and asked, "It's all this time, why don't you please come?"

"Please." Luo Zhen said while drinking a sullen wine, "It's just that they didn't send anyone. Now that everyone is there, let the others go out."

"Why?" Quan Xin, who was having fun with the waitress, was dissatisfied: "What else is there to talk about now, it is better for everyone to eat and play, wait for Xiangxuehai to feel comfortable, and I will invite you tonight!"

"Quan Xin!" Luo Zhen slapped the table, angrily.

"The money you go to Hongyuhai is counted on my head, okay?" Quanxin is not empty at all, shook his head and sneered: "What's the matter? Without Jing Zhengwei, if you didn't listen to it, you thought it was your turn. Are you the boss? How old are you? You want to make me move?"

"Quan Xin!" Luo Zhen smirked. He and Quan Xin have been friends since childhood. Quan Xin has always been the only one to look forward to his head. Now Quan Xin actually lost his face on the spot, he stood up and clenched his fists: "You Did you take the medicine and eat it to spoil your brain or just use the following thinking? Dog bastard, do you want to die?"

"Haha, you are in a hurry. You are in a hurry. You are in a hurry." Quan Xin hugged the maid and laughed loudly: "Who doesn't know that your Luo family is the dog of the aristocratic family. Now Jing Zhengwei wants to unify the silver and blood. You can't do it anymore. Their money bags are gone."

"Duke Wanghai will give him his daughter. Would other nobles still use your Luo family? You Luo family licks the nobles, and the nobles lick Jing Zhengwei. As long as Jing Zhengwei expresses his willingness to continue supporting those guys, those five chambers of commerce will be the first to disappear. Yes, it is your Luo family!"

Luo Zhen's face was pale.

Because Quanxin is all true.

Among the five major chambers of commerce, if it is described in terms of technical content, Luo’s industry is the least technical. It is either a store, a transit business, or a downstream assembly factory. In short, the position of the pig in Luo’s family is changed. , Can do well.

The Luo family's confidence comes from the support of the nobles and the county guards. Unlike other chambers of commerce that first monopolize technology, and then let the county government maintain its own monopoly, the Luo family first took out the chicken feather order of the county government and forced the monopoly of industries without technical content, so they could have no pressure Gain huge profits.

For example, shoes.

Yes, shoes, such as consumables with little value, are monopolized by the Luo family in Xuanzhu County. Ordinary people make pairs of straw sandals by themselves, and the Luo family doesn't care, but if you dare to open a shop and sell shoes, wait for the patrol guard to blackmail and open the shop.

The Luo family divides shoes into many grades. The most high-end and highest-looking ones are naturally for people, but they will not let go of the few copper plates that are for people. Even the cheapest shoes are extremely uncomfortable for ordinary people. The price is high, but they are smart, and they will create public opinion on the chain of shoe discrimination.

‘Luo’s shoes are comfortable to wear, durable, a century-old history, cultural symbol’, ‘Only when you wear shoes can you be worthy of yourself’, ‘Silver nobles love to wear this style of shoes’ and so on.

This kind of public opinion is still very popular in Xuanzhu County. People who wear shoes do have a sense of superiority to people with bare feet. Many young people buy shoes for themselves, and even buy more expensive shoes-others Wear the lowest grade, you wear the same style as the silver-blooded nobleman, and hold your head tall when you lift the bricks.

But in the final analysis, the Luo family's profits all lie in his ‘compulsory monopoly’.

Even if other chambers of commerce compete with their peers, they can still be forced to death by virtue of their size; but the Luo family can’t. Once a peer enters the market, their ‘good currency’ profits will be squeezed to zero by the untouchable’s ‘bad currency’ products.

Therefore, the Luo family relied heavily on the nobles of the county guard house. Once there was no support from above, the Luo family was instantly finished.

And now, it is the summer of the Luo family's critical survival.

The aristocratic and powerful officials have completely fallen to Jing Zhengwei. They don't have any pressure, and it's a big deal. As long as they can continue to be officials, they will be able to exploit them sooner or later.

They naturally wouldn't cherish white gloves like the Luo family. Although the Luo family is obedient and easy to use, it is only a glove after all, not a family heirloom. If the lord wants to use it to warm his hands, he will give it to him.

Everyone knew this, and there was a trace of pity in their eyes when they looked at Luo Zhen.

Although other people can't escape, it is obvious that Luo Zhen will be the one who will die the fastest, and it can even be said to be mortal.

Workers need to be'irreplaceable' in order to escape the fate of being abandoned when they are old, and the Chamber of Commerce is the same.

The Luo family was like when they were young, they used to kneel and lick to find a rich man to support them. On weekdays, they rely on a dozen buildings to collect rent. Now the rich are bankrupt, and they package the Luo family with those dozen buildings and sell them to Jing Zhengwei. , Luo family has no temper at all.

Luo Zhen just stood there, staring straight at Quan Xin. Quan Xin, who was hollowed out by the wine, quickly stunned, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let's save some energy to go to Xiangxuehai tonight."

The waitresses hurriedly left the room as if they were amnesty. They can talk about secrets like this inside the Silver Blood Society, but they can't listen. If they continue to stay, their lives will be left there.

Luo Zhen took a deep breath, his face calmed down, sat down, looked around for a week, and asked, "The poet hasn't come?"

Someone said: "Originally, they were changing their properties and preparing to leave Dongyang. Now Xuanzhu County is like this. They paid a large sum of money to the Linhai Navy and finally got permission to leave."

Everyone can't help but feel pity for the poet-other chambers of commerce have physical properties, and the money in it does not need to be spent on military expenses, but the poets have sold almost all physical properties these days, and the circulating funds are excessive.

If a poet is selected for 40%, then 40% of his family will be ransacked. A good one of the top twenty-level chambers of commerce, just because of losses in the Skyrim area, and encountered continuous man-made disasters, directly lost more than half of the family property.

Luo Zhen just asked casually, and quickly entered the subject: "Who knows the reaction of the listener?"

Lanjianbo said: "Tingjia is under total martial law, but they seem to be preparing to sell the goods ordered by the Yang Jun to the warlord over the sky, and they have already shipped a ship."

Someone was surprised: "He Yang Jun's goods, they dare to sell?"

Soon someone sneered and said: "He Yang Jun is disabled now, and I don't know that there will be a He Yang Jun. Is it still reserved for He Yang Jun as charity?"

Tingjia’s most famous product is naturally guns.

When Heyangjun was in Heyang, 90% of the output of the Tingjia Gun Weapon Factory was sold to Heyangjun at cost, and even often lost money. The remaining 10% was naturally the source of the Tingjia’s fortune.

And the reason why Tingjia was sold to Heyang Jun at such a cheap price was naturally not because of their deep love for this land, but because Heyang Jun pointed at them with guns and weapons. Would they dare to sell it expensively?

Now He Yang Jun has been beaten and disabled, the governor Ge Shiwen is gone, the wolf prison docking yard may be fighting in battle, the military has no ability to check and balance the listeners, why do you need to look at their faces?

On the other hand, Tingjia is now the most likely to become a warlord, and they have some guns. Had it not been for Jing Zhengwei to intervene with Lin Haijun, Dongyang District would have long been named Ting~www.readwn.com~Tingjia and we are no longer the same way. "

"Yes, Jing Zhengwei can't help them."

"If you listen to Jing Heliu... Fortunately, I heard that I have a grudge with Jing Zhengwei..."

"What's that bit of grievance? Hearing Gu and Hearing Late Seeing is called a big enmity. Didn't Hearing that happen to him as if nothing happened? He even really gave him his concubine..."

"Really, do you know?"

"I saw and heard that I was flirting with a woman at the pier two days ago. I practiced the Feihua warfare, and recognized that woman as the old concubine."

Quanxin asked seriously: "Is it pretty?"

The respondent gave a thumbs up: "Xiangxuehai is the top card."

Even if it is a matter of life and death, once the content is colored, the building is still crooked by the thunder.

But Qin Leyin can understand them.

When faced with difficult problems, normal people will choose to escape, like a student doing one-minute homework and playing a half-hour mobile phone, just like the author writing a thousand words and playing a three-hour game... This is a defense mechanism, because everyone Not a rational person, unable to make optimal decisions.

The optimal decision for elementary school students who scored 10 in the test is to go home and take off their pants and wait for the beating, instead of adding a zero to the score, but there are always elementary school students hoping that this can deceive their parents to escape a severe beating.

When faced with unprecedented problems, most people are no different from elementary school students. They may know the best decision in their hearts, but they cannot make up their minds. Perhaps they are hoping for a miracle in reality.

At this time, you need a leader, a guiding light, and a person who can make everyone feel better.

So Qin Leyin knocked on the table, letting the gossip talkers focus on him.

"Let's surrender."
