Zhuo Gao said neither humble nor overbearing.
Chen Qing ignored him, and asked casually: "Do you have a title?"
"Yes, villains are created above."
"God made?"
Daqin implemented a system of [-]th-class titles, the lowest being the public servant, who could be awarded by beheading a soldier on the battlefield.
The penultimate one is Shangzao, which needs to kill two soldiers.
Chen Qing smiled jokingly, and picked up the teacup on the case table.
"This official is Shangqing, who is in charge of a mansion alone, and is a relative of the emperor."
"The old lady is the richest man in Bashu. She has donated money and food for the great cause of the court many times, and is deeply respected by Your Majesty."
"You are a mere master, no wonder you are so short-sighted."
"You are a god, you are not qualified to sit here at all."
Zhuo Gao gasped, looked deeply at Chen Qing, dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.
Speaking of seniority, Zhuo Tianlu had to call him uncle.
In the Zhuo family, he is at least the number three or four.
Unexpectedly, Chen Qing was so domineering!
"Sitting here, you have insulted the identity of the official and the old lady."
"You still think the official is joking?"
"Go back and wait for the news. I'll call you when I'm free."
Chen Qing put down the teacup without even looking at the other party.
Zhuo Gao's eyes were wide open, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a while.
Has he been issued an expulsion order?
Ba Shiqing observed Chen Qing for a long time, and then secretly winked at Zhuo Gao.
"Little man...retire."
Zhuo Gao lowered his head deeply, not daring to let Chen Qing see his expression.
At this moment, he finally understood that it wasn't Zhuo Tianlu who was young and vigorous, who made the Zhuo family suffer so much.
It's that Chen Qing is really... so fucked up!
Zhuo Gao has lived a long time, and has never seen a man like him.
Arrogant and domineering, relentless in handling affairs, turning his face when he says it is wrong.
Doesn't he know how to stay on the front line so that we can meet each other in the future?
Zhuo Gao walked away disheartened, and the steward of the Cheng family buried his head deeply.
At this time, he is neither leaving nor staying.
Fortunately, Chen Qing didn't drive him away, he just pretended that this person didn't exist.
"Old lady, I made you laugh."
Chen Qing showed a warm smile and refilled a cup of tea for Ba Shiqing.
"Thank you, Young Master Chen."
Ba Shiqing's expression was a little more respectful, and he took the teacup with both hands.
"The old man will tell you the truth."
"Our three smelting iron ore and cinnabar have a great demand for coal."
"If you rely on purchasing alone, the cost is high, and it is really unaffordable."
"Please also ask Chen Shaofu to be lenient and give us a little chance."
"If you have any request, please feel free to mention it."
"I must find a way to achieve it for you."
Chen Qing shook his head: "His Royal Highness and I are brothers and sisters. Whatever I want, he will definitely give. Even if he doesn't have it, I have a way with His Majesty."
"If they can't give it, I'm afraid you can't do anything even if it's the old lady."
"Coal mining is really not something I can do alone."
"but……"
"What kind of rules and regulations, but your Majesty, the court, and the official need to think carefully before making a fuss."
"It's not impossible, old lady, to mine coal in remote places."
"But I would like to remind you that the best clean coal must be washed with water before it can be used."
"And this thing is dark in color, and the water washed out is as muddy as ink."
"No matter how desolate the place is, as long as the nearby water turns black, someone must be mining coal privately!"
"At that time... when the imperial army arrives, there will be a catastrophe of extermination!"
There was a strong sense of threat in Chen Qing's tone.
Ba Shiqing couldn't help but change his face, and his mood was extremely complicated for a while.
Chen Qing's foundation has long been uncovered.
He himself started out by private mining and hiding, and now he is an important minister of the court, but relying on his deep knowledge of this way, he does not leave any way of life to others.
It's like crossing the river and tearing down the bridge!
"Then it will be up to Young Master Chen to decide."
"However, please remember that it is not easy for us to do business, and be more considerate of the difficulties of Bashu merchants."
"I will be rewarded for waiting."
Ba Shiqing knew that there would be no results to discuss today.
Chen Qing is a determined person. He clearly knows where his strengths are and how to make the most of them.
Wanting to take advantage of him is wishful thinking!
Ba Shiqing and the stewards of the Cheng family got up one after another, took their leave and left.
Chen Qing walked to the door, then stopped to look at their backs.
"The prosperity of the world is all for profit. The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit."
"It's just that you've come to me, maybe you've found the wrong person?"
Chen Qing can understand that Bashu tycoons racked their brains to exploit loopholes in the law in order to pursue their interests.
But there was one thing he couldn't figure out.
Why do you feel qualified to sit down and negotiate with me?
Is it because my fortune was too short and I was underestimated?
If it were the Mongolian and Wang families, or Li Si, who is now in dire straits, would you still have the courage to talk to such aristocratic families?
"Tomorrow we have to go to the morning court, don't care about them."
"A powerful family is a powerful family after all, not a wealthy family."
Chen Qing shook his head, yawned, and walked towards the bed.
the other side.
Ba Shiqing and the stewards of the Cheng family left the gate, but Zhuo Gao's carriage hadn't left yet.
"Old lady."
Although the people in Bashu yelled "Widow Qing" behind their backs, they would definitely not be so rude in person.
Ba Shiqing gave the coachman a wink, and walked over with his entourage and the steward of the Cheng family.
"I don't know how the old lady and Chen Qing are discussing?"
Zhuo Gao asked impatiently.
Ba Shiqing shook his head slowly: "People are knives, I am fish. What else is there to talk about?"
Zhuo Gao suddenly sighed angrily: "This guy is really hateful. He took down the coal mine in Baligou without making a sound. I heard it didn't cost a single coin."
"I'm not waiting to grab his business, as long as he's convenient, it's not that I don't give benefits."
"It really doesn't work..."
In the cold night, Ba Shiqing stretched out his hands and tucked up his clothes: "I advise you to die as soon as possible."
"The Zhuo family has been favored by the emperor, which has already aroused the envy of countless people."
"If someone exposes you for mining coal without permission, I'm afraid that your family will not be safe."
Zhuo Gao clenched his fists: "This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. Could it be that the Bashu merchants just let that Chen Qing bully and suppress them?"
Ba Shiqing smiled meaningfully: "Why do you Zhuo family members have such a temperament? Are you all in a daze?"
"Chen Qing bullied and oppressed you, but he didn't kill you."
"Why don't you like it?"
……
Zhuo and Cheng looked at this long-famous Bashu female tyrant in silence.
Even she has such an attitude, don't they want to let Chen Qing handle it?
"It's getting late, let's go back as soon as possible."
"The matter of coal, I have my own opinion."
"If you don't want to obey, I will let you."
"It's just because of the fellowship, I need to remind you."
"Chen Qing didn't spend a single copper coin, and he was able to get a coal mine from the royal family."
"You can give it a try and see if you, Zhuo and Cheng, have the face and weight."
"That's it, let's do it for yourself."
After Ba Shiqing finished speaking, he turned around and got into the carriage without hesitation, leaving Zhuo and Cheng standing in the night, thinking for a long time.
Chapter 171 Then Please Your Majesty Punish the Ten Clans of Weichen
The sky was bright.
Fusu called Chen Qing, got into the carriage and rushed to Xianyang Palace to pay his respects.
"Ah~~~"
"Fusu, if you become emperor in the future, even 996 is fine, but don't go to court before dawn."
Chen Qing yawned, tears streaming down his face.
Knowing the taste, I have been thinking about whether to go to Xiangli Ling last night.
But remembering to get up early the next day, I never made the trip.
I was thinking of getting a good night's sleep and recharging my energy for tomorrow's battle with Fusu.But a pair of big melons were shaking and shaking in his mind, making him so distracted that he couldn't fall asleep at all.
"Sir, don't say this in front of outsiders."
Fusu observed Zuo Jin and saw no one around, so he was relieved.
"I can save it."
Chen Qing nodded disapprovingly.
After entering Xianyang Palace, some officials who arrived early walked towards the main hall in twos and threes.
Usually the lower the official position, the earlier they come.
