Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

With Liang Shuyu's temper, how could he drink wine brewed by other people's house?

Liang Shuyu smiled wryly and said, "Master Guo, with the disturbance of nearly a thousand restaurants and tea shops, our Liang family has made a loss-making business!"

Guo Ye immediately put down the wine cup, and responded with a smile: "Mr. Liang, don't complain, how could your Liang family do business at a loss? Take a longer view! Besides, your Liang family is still short of a day or two of money. Is it? Haha..."

Liang Shuyu saw that Guo Ye began to flirt again, so he couldn't help asking: "Master Guo, how many days will the situation in Dongshi last? My father can't spare me if I keep refusing customers like this!"

Guo Ye knew that Liang Shuyu, a small businessman, had an outburst of nature, and said immediately, "Young Master Liang, stand up for me for another three days. After three days, I will write a letter. You will lead people to Xichuan Xiaodu Protector's Mansion to find Kang Bao, the local protector, and Pang Feihu, who is in charge of the two countries' bazaar in Ali Tucheng, will know what to do when they read my handwritten letter!"

"it is good!"

Hearing what Guo Ye said, Liang Shuyu's eyes lit up immediately, and he praised: "Three days is three days, and after three days, the thousands of restaurants, restaurants and teahouses in Dongshi City will be open as usual. But Mr. Guo, what are you doing today?" Such a commotion is really enough for Changlefang to eat a pot. In the future, it will be quite difficult for Changlefang's business to recover."

After hearing this, Guo Ye smiled and said, "Mr. Liang, don't say that. What's the matter with me today? Changle Fangkou is organized by Sima Pingbang and the others to resist gambling that harms people; and there are nearly a thousand shops in Dongshi. It has nothing to do with a penny. Don’t talk nonsense, let King Jiangxia know later, Guo is really going to suffer!”

cut~

Liang Shuyu rolled his eyes at Guo Ye, and said mockingly, "Master Guo is too cunning. But you are afraid of King Jiang Xia, but it doesn't mean that our Liang family should be afraid of him too, hum~!"

In the last sentence, Liang Shuyu said it with full confidence. Obviously, the support of the Liang family is really not simple.

Guo Ye didn't get to the bottom of it, but went to find out who the person behind the Liang family was.

Instead, he sighed with regret: "Oh, both Changle Fangkou and Dongshi have done a good job today. But if entertainment newspapers, gossip weekly and other overwhelming reports are added, maybe there will be more Greater effect. It's a pity, we don't have these things on hand, otherwise, tsk tsk..."

"what?"

The businessman's sensitivity happened to Liang Shuyu again. After he was surprised, he asked with interest: "Master Guo, what is the newspaper you are talking about? Why has Liang never heard of it?"

When asked here, there was a strong burning in his eyes, as if he was about to burn Guo Ye, he asked anxiously: "Could it be that this newspaper is another business that can make money?"

Chapter 443 Luo Sihai Enters the Imperial City

"Uh……"

When Liang Shuyu asked, Guo Ye realized that he was bald. Why did he mention the newspaper business in front of him?

Guo Ye thought about it early in the morning, and when he got a firm foothold in Chang'an, he would use the resources and channels in his hands to start a newspaper. He even thought of the name of the newspaper, and called it "Chang'an Imperial Capital Daily".

The purpose of running this newspaper is not to make money, but to let myself have the right to speak in Chang'an, and even in the court in the future.

Historical experience throughout the ages tells him that it is still very important to master the media mouthpiece and propaganda outlet.

Not only can it build momentum in good times, but it can also rebound in adversity. The magic of Duan is endless!

He looked at Liang Shuyu's questioning, his eyes glowed like the scorching sun at noon, and he guessed that this kid smelled the smell of copper again, and got into Qian's eyes.

He knows very well that running a newspaper can not only be done overnight, nor can it be achieved by one person alone, but also needs to find a strong partner.

As for that partner, it definitely wasn't Liang Shuyu, a money stringer.

At the very least, that person must have a certain reputation and influence. Although Liang Shuyu is a rich man who takes advantage of the money and has backing, he is definitely not an ideal partner for him to run a newspaper.

Immediately, Guo Ye prevaricated: "Grandma, it's getting late, and I should go back home. Besides, the blind man can see that the scene in Dongshi today was written by you, Mr. Liang, and I have to leave in two days." Stay away, lest someone with a heart see it and hear it in the ears of King Jiang Xia, it will be very bad."

Sure enough, when Guo Ye changed the subject, Liang Shuyu immediately showed some disdain, and hummed, "Master Guo seems to be making a big fuss, right? Jiangxia Wang Zong knew that Dongshi was ordered by me, so he has what he can do." What about me? I open the door to do business, and if I refuse customers or not, do I still need the approval of King Jiangxia?"

Guo Ye laughed, clasped his fists and said, "Second Young Master, I know that you are awesome, and that your backing is strong. But Guo is only a student of the Imperial College now, at best a small sixth-rank supervisory censor. In the eyes of King Jiang Xia, If you want to deal with me, it's as simple as trampling an ant to death. Come on, I won't play tricks with you, I'll go back first."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the private room. When he reached the door of the private room, he did not forget to turn his head and shout at Liang Shuyu: "In three days, I will send someone to repair the book and send it to you. At that time, Xichuan and his party, Mr. Liang can spend more time." For a few days, let Kang Bao and Pang Feihu treat me as a landlord and treat Mr. Liang well. Let’s go~~"

With a long trailing sound, the person had already left, and the chaotic footsteps spread farther and farther, apparently already descending the stairs on the second floor.

Liang Shuyu saw Guo Yeren coming like crazy, and when he rolled his eyes, he had already run away.

Holding his chin with his right hand, he murmured: "Since you know that King Jiangxia is not easy to mess with, how dare you touch him? Don't you know that the hundreds of gambling houses in Changlefang are his favorites? Guo Ye, you He used a knife to gouge King Jiang Xia's flesh, I don't know it hurts!"

……

……

Because of the gloomy sky and the curfew, the crowd of onlookers at Changle Fangkou had already been dispersed by the soldiers of the right leader Weifu Yamen, and even the anti-gambling fighter Sima Pingbang and others were also driven home by Su Dingfang.

Although there were no people at the entrance of Changle Fang, but with such a commotion today, coupled with the chain reaction in the East City, the flow of people coming to Changle Fang to play money has dropped significantly tonight.

Luo Sihai had already returned to the main shop, and the guys who had been sent out before had also investigated the passenger flow of each branch, and stood in front of him one by one to report to him the business of each branch tonight.

After listening to everyone's report, Luo Sihai's face was gloomy, and he didn't care to wipe the sweat stains off his body with a sweat towel, but kept trembling his lips and muttered: "Damn, really damn, the passenger flow is less than [-]% of the usual. Damn , damn it all!"

bae~

In a fit of anger, he threw the sweat towel in his hand to the ground, and stomped on it hard to vent his anger.

According to him, it's not only the bastard Sima Pingbang who should be damned, but also Su Dingfang who blocked him, and even the second son of the Liang family who caused chaos in Changlefang in the East City.

Seeing the stalwart shopkeeper Luo getting angry, the staff who reported the situation were all shocked, and none of them dared to speak up.

boom boom boom boom~~

There was a sound of hurried footsteps from outside, and a clerk ran up to him in an instant, shouting: "Master, shopkeeper, master..."

"Hand your mother hard!"

Luo Sihai was upset and irritable. Seeing someone rushing over again, he immediately scolded: "What's the matter again? Is that bastard Sima Pingbang making trouble in Changlefang again? Damn him, he really is me, Luo Sihai Is it muddy?"

After scolding furiously, Luo Sihai showed his vicious look, and shouted: "Come on, follow me to the entrance of Changlefang, I must have skinned his dog alive today. Fuck Su Dingfang, whoever you love~"

"No, it's not." The man who reported the letter was obviously frightened by Luo Sihai, and hurriedly said, "The shopkeeper, it's not that someone is making trouble, but someone from the Jiangxia palace sent a message that King Jiangxia wants to see the shopkeeper. Hurry up to the imperial city to meet King Jiang Xia."

slap~

Luo Sihai raised his left arm, turned his backhand to the guy, and cursed: "My lord is calling, are you still fucking hesitant? You bastard, be careful next time I will cut your tongue!"

After beating and scolding this extremely wronged guy, Luo Sihai ran out in big strides, preparing to go to Jiangxia Palace in the imperial city.

Soon, Luo Sihai asked his servants to harness the carriage, hurried out of Changle Square, and rushed towards the Three Gates of the Imperial City.

Da da da da~~ crunching~~

The horseshoes were flying fast, the wheels were rolling, and Luo Sihai's carriage quickly arrived outside the Suzaku Gate of the Three Gates of the Imperial City.

The imperial city is the city wall that connects the imperial palace and Chang'an city. Not only the mansions of the members of the Li family are in the imperial city, but also the yamen of the six ministries of the Tang Dynasty (officials, rites, soldiers, punishment, workers, and households), and various departments and departments. Yamen and all important departments of the imperial court are located in the imperial city.

It can be said that the imperial city is not only the residence of the royal family, but also the place where the ministers of the court work.

The three gates of the imperial city are the only entrance to the imperial city from Chang'an City, so in addition to the strict security, even entering the imperial city requires tokens, customs clearance documents or letters.
