Chapter five hundred and fourth act decisively
After hearing Li Dongxiang's intention, Tong'er was so angry that she trembled all over, with tears in her eyes. This is not a business, it is clearly a home to collect debts, but she does not owe anything to the Li family.
Seeing that his girl was so angry, Li Donghai felt a little embarrassed and said embarrassedly: "Girl, there is nothing in the clan. It's time for the New Year, and the clan cannot afford to pay. The uncle is anxious and his second uncle and our father are being pushed out by everyone to be in charge for the time being. The second uncle said that it is convenient for you to do business with the Hu people in Huazhou, so he asked my fourth brother and I to ban some porcelain and silk for some silver to spend the New Year."
Tong'er's tears fell down, and she asked disheartenedly: "Did you ask me to come? I will sell these goods in a short while and sell them for the 120,000 taels of silver you want. You might as well sell me."
Li Donghai was speechless. Of course, his father refused to let him come. But the second uncle privately promised 3,000 taels of benefits. Li Donghai came to Huazhou for the sake of the money. Of course, Li Donghai thought this was an easy thing. Jiang Anyi was the governor of Huazhou. As long as he opened his mouth, those Hu merchants were not fighting to buy things. Why didn’t the girl understand the difficulties at home? She and Jiang Anyi were having a good time, and no matter how much goods they were, they could sell them. As for the anxiousness, would they cry?
Jiang Anyi listened silently. Seeing Tong'er crying, she reached out and gently held her little hand. A gentle true energy flowed into Tong'er's body and comforted her softly, "Don't be sad, so as not to hurt your body."
You should know that more than a year ago, Tong'er almost died of blood and blood. She finally recovered her. If there was another mistake, wouldn't Jiang Anyi feel the thrill of her heart? Mingyu's true qi nourished her meridians in Tong'er's body. Jiang Anyi felt the vigorous vitality in Tong'er's body. The depression was easily dissolved by the true qi, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Tong'er felt warm and comfortable in her body. She slowly closed her eyes, relaxed her mind, and asked her husband to deal with this troublesome matter with confidence.
Li Yunxia brought the servant girl to the tea, but did not leave, but stood behind Li Dongxiang. She felt that she was a member of the Li family or an elder of Tong'er and others, and was qualified to listen. The atmosphere inside the house was awkward, and Li Yunxia said with a "yo": "Tong girl, who doesn't know that you are the second master's beloved, so how could you suffer any grievances? You married into the Huazhou family this time, and the clan spent a lot of money, not to mention the dowry, look at this house, these things are all purchased by the clan..."
Jiang Anyi heard it harshly and interrupted her, "Butler Li, the Li family might as well take back this house. I can ask Tong'er to move to the back house of the government office, or buy another house."
"That's not possible?" Li Yunxia screamed, "Tong girl is a marriage given by the Empress, which is related to the face of our Li family. Tong girl cannot live out." Li Yunxia said it with confidence, because she really thought that the Empress gave her marriage for the sake of the Li family. In the eyes of ordinary Li family, although Jiang Anyi was a governor, he was from a poor family and could not compare with the Li family, one of the top ten aristocratic families. There were nearly ten officials of the fifth rank or above in the Li family, and Li Mingxing was even one of the nine ministers. The Empress was pitying Tong'er's experience, and she gave marriage to Jiang Anyi for the sake of the Li family. So Li Yunxia always used the imperial edict of the Empress to squeeze Xinfei, and Xinfei was too lazy to care about her. In her eyes, she dared not offend the Empress. In her eyes, this was Jiang Anyi's official residence. The back house of the government office should take the initiative to accept it and obey her arrangements.
Li Dongxiang
They were from Li Donghai, and Li Mingxing once wrote to the clan to explain the whole story and importance of the marriage. The two of them knew that the empress gave a marriage not to the face of the Li family, but to win over Jiang Anyi. When Li Yunxia spoke up to the empress and said something shamelessly, they had a fever on their faces.
Li Donghai said unhappily: "Xia Gu, when it comes to business, don't talk about useless things."
Li Yunxia was excited and did not notice Li Donghai's expression. After a change of topic, she continued: "Tongyao said that she would not be able to sell the goods for a while, but this is not a big deal for the son-in-law. As long as she just finds a Hu merchant, the thing will be sold. Speaking of business, when Tongyao got married, the clan said that Tongyao would decide the line in the west from now on, and the clan gave two profits. It has been a month since a business has not been negotiated. The shop has already recognized it, and the shopkeeper has sent it from home. Every day, everyone eats horses and chews are all money. Sister-in-law, even for Tong'er, you have to have snacks. It is not. According to me, since the goods brought by the fourth and sixteenth young masters will be sold according to the wishes of the clan, it can be considered a opening and a celebration."
"You have such a big face," Jiang Anyi couldn't help but feel angry and shouted coldly: "I, Mr. Jiang, is a person who uses his power to seize power?"
Li Yunxia didn't care about Jiang Anyi's anger at all, and curled her lips and said, "Son-in-law, everyone here is her own family, so you don't need to be aloof. Who doesn't know that Boss Guo of the Immortal Mansion is your righteous brother. He will make money next day with your care. Our Li family doesn't ask for what he is like, but you don't have to give him any good food."
Everyone's way of handling things will vary depending on their age, temperament, and experience. The same person's way of handling things will be different during different periods. If Jiang Anyi was put before the judge passed the exam, he would definitely retort back, scold Li Yunxia for being so bloody and drove him out of the house. As for the Li family's goods, he would do whatever he suffered and he would not bother to care about it. Now he understands the principle that it is easy to break, knows how to experience Tong'er, and takes into account all aspects of relationships, Jiang Anyi will not take simple and fierce methods, but instead finds a balance point and solves the problem steadily.
It means to give in, but it does not mean to compromise. In a moment, Jiang Anyi made plans. He still held Tong'er's hand with his left hand and gently knocked on the table with his right hand, interrupting Li Yunxia's endless talk, and squeezed out a smile and said, "I roughly understand what the two brothers mean. I have a few ways for you to choose from. First, I will buy all this batch of goods, and at the price they said, 120,000 taels."
Li Dongxiang and Li Donghai smiled, and Li Dongxiang smiled and said, "My brother-in-law is indeed a person who does big things and is heroic."
Tong'er felt sad. The fourth brother Li Dongxiang was a good person among his peers in the family. How could he be so frivolous? Jiang Lang clearly gave him a few choices. He couldn't wait to cheer him when he said the first one. If the conditions were so simple, why would he cry? Jiang Anyi also sighed in his heart that the children of aristocratic families were so impetuous. Before he could finish his words, he was eager to cheer him. If he said the next words, he might have changed his face again.
"However, only once, Jiang will no longer ask about the Li family's business. Everything will follow the rules. Xia Gu just said that I took care of Brother Guo, you go and inquire. Brother Guo relies on himself to do business, and Jiang has never said hello to his business."
Li Dongxiang and Li Donghai's smiles are condensed, I can hear
The meaning of Jiang Anyi's words is that this one time means that Jiang Anyi has completely broken all his favors with the Li family through this transaction, and wants to take advantage of them again in the future. Three words: Impossible. The two are not fools. If they agree to this condition, they will definitely be beaten to death by the patriarch after returning, and there will be no chance to make a comeback from now on.
Li Yunxia also understood the meaning and screamed: "Son-in-law, you are too ruthless. My Li family treats you very much. Not only do they not care about the old grudges of the past, but they also betrothed Tong'er to you. How could you treat the Li family like this?"
Jiang Anyi ignored her and looked at Li Dongxiang and the others. Li Donghai said with a cold face: "Brother-in-law, let's talk about other options."
"The second is that this batch of goods is temporarily mortgaged to me, and I will give it 50% of the price, and then make up for the remaining amount after the goods are sold."
Li Dongxiang calculated that the goods were worth about 70,000 taels at the normal market price. Jiang Anyi could give 60,000 taels first, and bringing them back could be an emergency. As for the goods, Tong'er was there, I believe that he would not lose his own money.
"Are there any other options?" Li Dongxiang asked cautiously.
"There is another way, that is, I will ask Brother Guo to help. His caravan will go to Tianwei Kingdom in the beginning of next year. At that time, the Li family will send someone to escort the goods to go with him. It will probably earn 120,000 taels of silver."
After Jiang Anyi said that, he picked up the teacup and asked Li Dongxiang and Li Donghai to discuss. Tong'er gently held Jiang Anyi's hand, ignored his two brothers and shook his eyes at him, saying that these three methods were all for his own sake and had already made concessions. If the fourth brother and the others still wanted to be more arrogant, they would not want to be merciful.
Before Li Dongxiang and the other two had reached the conclusion, Li Yunxia muttered dissatisfiedly: "Son-in-law, everyone in the world knows that you have twin golden hands. As long as you are willing to give 10% of the perfume to the Li family, the Li family's business will take root in Huazhou."
Jiang Anyi was furious. It was true that the perfume business was making money every day, but the big tree attracted the wind and was related to the empress and the prince. Half of his sales in Huazhou was because the emperor needed Huazhou to attract wealth, and he brought Hu merchants' products into the border market at the cost of perfume. Most of the commercial taxes of Huazhou exceeded 4 million this year were due to perfume. The perfume business was nominally under Guo Huaili's name. In fact, this was a transaction in the court. Li Yunxia, who didn't know the importance of the matter, actually turned her mind to perfume, which would inevitably lead to disaster.
"Xia Gu, people must know how to love others and give you face. I call you Xia Gu for Tong'er's sake, but if you don't know the mercy, don't blame me for being merciless." Jiang Anyi said coldly: "You must know that the plaque hanging in front of this house is Jiang's house, not your Li's house. If you are more at ease, I will naturally tolerate you. If you think Jiang is just a son-in-law who comes to the door and can control it at will, then please go back to Renzhou."
Li Yunxia's face was flushed by Jiang Anyi's words. Looking at Jiang Anyi's uneven look, she couldn't say a word, so she had to look at Tong'er pitifully, hoping that she would say a few good things for her.
Tong'er knew that at this time, he should stand firmly on Jiang Lang's side, stood up and said, "Marry husband and follow the husband. Since I, Li Tong, marry Jiang Anyi, I will put the Jiang family first. Jiang Lang's words are what I mean. Xia Gu, tell everyone in the mansion that this is Jiang's house, not Li's mansion, let them follow the rules of the Jiang family."
