Princess, he is rich enough to rival the country

The last time I saw Zhou's family, Guiyuanju hadn't opened yet, so Gu Yanshu asked Zhou's family to find a teahouse.

This time, Gu Yanshu naturally invited people directly to his own territory. While talking, he could also inspect his own property and see the land he had built.

Of course, apart from the difference in the meeting place, the person who talked to Gu Yanshu this time is also different.

In addition to Zhou Da and Thursday, a middle-aged man in his forties also came this time.

Tongyun Porcelain Studio has fought many times, Gu Yanshu has already read the information of the Zhou family, and naturally knows the identity of this person——

The father of several young masters of the Zhou family, and the current head of the Zhou family, Zhou Wenyang.

The meeting was also very smooth, each other was very polite, and there was no tense and incompatible atmosphere as outsiders guessed.

Gui Yuanju's show today is a cross talk show. On the stage, the joke is talking about an interesting point, and the audience in the audience also laughed out loud.

Gu Yanshu sat in the private room on the third floor, with a faint smile on his face.

When Zhou Jiasan and his son entered the door, they happened to see this scene of a beautiful woman cooking tea and smiling lightly.

"Here? Sit down."

Hearing the movement, Gu Yanshu slightly raised his hand to the seat opposite to him, then turned his eyes away from the stage and looked at the three father and son in front of him.

"I have met Her Highness Princess Li, Your Highness Wan An."

After Zhou Wenyang saluted Gu Yanshu slightly, he followed Gu Yanshu's wishes and sat down opposite him.

After sitting down, Zhou Wenyang didn't open his mouth to speak, but was observing the person who caused his Zhou family and his three sons to stumble several times.

The man in front of him was very young.

Especially for Zhou Wenyang, who was nearly half a hundred years old, Gu Yanshu looked particularly young.

According to Zhou Wenyang's understanding, Gu Yanshu is even several months younger than his youngest son.

However, it was such a young person who caused his Zhou family to suffer such a big loss, and finally suffered a crushing defeat.

Zhou Wenyang's eyes were hardly concealed, and Gu Yanshu did not dodge at all, letting Zhou Wenyang observe openly:

"What is Patriarch Zhou looking at?"

Gu Yanshu casually raised his hand, and Bai Shu, who was standing behind Gu Yanshu, took a step forward and poured a cup of tea for the three father and son of the Zhou family.

Zhou Wenyang can also be regarded as a successful businessman, and for his funeral, he is also the overlord among many people

.

After experiencing wind and rain, he will naturally not be as frizzy as a young man.Zhou Wenyang didn't feel embarrassed at all, and gave the answer generously:

"Your Highness is different from the rumors."

After all, according to the rumors, Gu Yanshu is not only useless, but also has a bad temper, a typical dude.

The defeat of Yun Ci Zhai was calculated by Gu Yanshu, Zhou Wenyang was not sure.

But the bearing shown by Gu Yanshu now is far from what a dude can possess.

Gu Yanshu was noncommittal, the core inside was changed, so naturally he would no longer be the person in the rumors:

"Patriarch Zhou is not the same as what this hall imagined."

Gu Yanshu had never met Zhou Wenyang before, but he had contact with the three young masters of the Zhou family.

Zhou Maoran, the second young master of the Zhou family, has mediocre abilities but likes to daydream. He is reckless in doing things and reckless about the consequences. He is considered an idiot in the mall.

As for Zhou Maoyuan on Thursday, he was a little smarter than Tuesday. Although his ability was also not strong, he at least knew how to avoid unrealistic fantasies.

Zhou Maojie, the boss of the Zhou family, is the smartest of the three, he has a certain degree of advance and retreat, and can even be regarded as a scheming man, who knows how to hide his strength and hide his edge.

It's a pity that because of his background, he is a bastard, and he is very soft-spoken in the Zhou family, so there is no room for him to speak.

But whether it was Tuesday or Thursday, or Zhou Da, when he saw him, there was always a trace of unwillingness on his face.

For example, now, even if it is Zhou Da, the way he looks at him is definitely not kind.

However, Zhou Wenyang was different.

Zhou Wenyang was extremely calm when facing Gu Yanshu, calmly as if the person sitting opposite him was not the culprit of the Zhou family's defeat.

Zhou Wenyang was only a little dazed, but he understood why Gu Yanshu said this, and smiled lightly:

"Caomin has read more than half a hundred years. Although it can't be said that he has lived through thousands of sails, he thinks he can afford to lose."

It is also good to lose the price war.

Sell ​​the silk and satin business, Fuyun Cizhai.

Step by step, although the decision was made by the young masters of the Zhou family, Zhou Wenyang nodded in agreement.

Once he loses in chess, his skills are not as good as others, and now he returns to the game after a disastrous defeat, and he can't blame others.

in contrast.

Zhou Wenyang also thanked Gu Yanshu somewhat.

Now that the Zhou family is in such a situation, Gu Yanshu is still willing to buy the remaining properties of the Zhou family, so as not to let them lose all their money and have nothing

.

Gu Yanshu's hand holding the tea paused slightly, and looked up at Zhou Wenyang for a while, with a trace of regret appearing on his face:

"It's a pity that this hall has a different position from Patriarch Zhou."

One can afford to lose, the seemingly light three words, but it is rarely possible to do it.

In Gu Yanshu's previous life, he had seen many successful people who were once handsome and well-dressed after business failures, hysterical.

Many people even ended up committing suicide.

It is extremely rare to be as open-minded as Zhou Wenyang.

Among these rare people, most of them will stay calm and dormant, choose the right time, and make a comeback.

So Gu Yanshu's regret is really not a polite remark on the scene.

Zhou Wenyang cupped his hands slightly, as if he accepted Gu Yanshu's words of admiration, and at the same time he did not forget to see the stitches:

"It's a pity for His Highness, why not be merciful when you counter-offer later."

"Since Patriarch Zhou knows that our hall will counter-offer, he is naturally aware of the inappropriateness of the Zhou family's pricing. Why should he be merciful when trading at a normal price?"

As soon as money was mentioned, Gu Yanshu immediately became vigilant, expressing that appreciation is appreciation, regret is regret, and business is business.

Seeing Gu Yanshu's heartlessness, although Zhou Wenyang was slightly regretful, he quickly calmed down and accepted the reality.

Now that bargaining has been mentioned, the two of them naturally went directly to the topic of the transaction.

When selling silk and satin, Zhou Wenyang heard from his two sons how fierce Gu Yanshu was when he bargained.

But when he faced it for real, Zhou Wenyang discovered that the descriptions relayed by his son were far less clear than when he faced them directly.

Just listen to Gu Yanshu's all-round analysis from the current situation of Yuncizhai, the current mood of the workers in Yuncizhai kiln factory, and the degree of damage to Yuncizhai's current store, etc., to explain that the Zhou family's current pricing is unreasonable.

In the end, Shengsheng lowered the price by [-]% on top of the fact that the Zhou family had already lowered the price by [-]%.

Although Zhou Wenyang wanted to refute, he found that he had no room to intervene.

For a moment, he even felt that Gu Yanshu understood the current situation of Yun Ci Zhai better than he did.

In the end, the two parties reached an agreement and completed the transaction at a price of 25 taels.

25 taels, even half of the silk business sold by the Zhou family half a month ago.

So far, the Zhou family has nothing in hand, only the 25 taels of cash left.

draw up a good contract

When the agreement was signed by both parties, Zhou Wenyang's hand paused slightly, and he looked up at Gu Yanshu:

"Your Highness."

"Ok?"

Gu Yanshu was very satisfied with the price of 25 taels, so he naturally became a little more patient with Zhou Wenyang.

"The matter this time was planned by His Highness, right?"

"What does Patriarch Zhou think?"

Although Gu Yanshu did not give Zhou Wenyang an affirmative answer, Zhou Wenyang actually already had the answer in his heart.

Before meeting Gu Yanshu, both the First Prince's Mansion and the Zhou family believed that the Zhou family's defeat this time was due to His Royal Highness Li Wang.

The First Prince even thought that His Highness King Li should have gotten a powerful staff from somewhere.

But now, after seeing Gu Yanshu and having a brief contact with Gu Yanshu, Zhou Wenyang knew.

There were no staff members, and maybe even His Royal Highness Li Wang didn't intervene too much.

Every strong person has a special aura.

Powerful, confident, tolerant and unbearable to believe and follow.

And Gu Yanshu's body perfectly reflects these points.

He lowered his head again and set his sights on the contract on the table.

This time, Zhou Wenyang didn't pause, just raised the pen, wrote his name on it, and then took out the private seals of the Zhou family and himself, and stamped the seal next to his name.

Throughout the whole process, Zhou Wenyang did it slowly and solemnly.

After doing all this, Zhou Wenyang looked at the contract in front of him, a little dazed:

With the hard work of two generations of the Zhou family and half of my life, there is only this piece of paper left.

Seeing this, Gu Yanshu didn't bother, and raised his hand slightly:

"25 taels, the two young masters will order first."

As soon as Gu Yanshu finished speaking, Bai Shu stepped forward and put a brocade box in his hand in front of Zhou Dahe Zhou.

A simple action, but Zhou Da and Zhou Zhou had a flash of surprise in their eyes:

Bai Shu didn't take any action, just gave them the brocade box, what does that mean?

It means that before this negotiation, Gu Yanshu knew that the final transaction price would be 25 taels.

What kind of control is this?

Zhou Wenyang naturally saw this too. He suddenly thought of a possibility, and his throat was inexplicably itchy:

"The porcelain bowls in the hands of those beggars in the south of the city..."

"Tao Ranju also ordered a lot of porcelain from Yuncizhai."

Now that Zhou Wenyang had guessed it, Gu Yanshu didn't feel the need to hide anything, so he directly admitted it.

"Why?" In just a moment, Zhou Wenyang's voice became hoarse and disfigured.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the porcelain bowl in the hands of the beggars in the south of the city was a heavy blow to Yuncizhai, which severely defeated Yuncizhai's one move, and it was completely defeated.

Losing the price war, Zhou Wenyang can accept it, it was Yuncizhai who provoked the dispute first, Zhou Maoran was too young, and Tao Ranju won in an aboveboard manner.

Zhou Wenyang did not regret selling the silk business. This was a joint decision made by the Zhou family. If he took the wrong path, he chose it himself.

But since Yuncizhai reopened, Zhou Wenyang thought that his relationship with Tao Ranju had been resolved, and Yuncizhai never provoked Tao Ranju again.

Why did Princess Li want to kill all of them?

Before Gu Yanshu could give Zhou Wenyang an answer, Zhi Ge who was standing in the corner moved his ears slightly as if he heard something.

Then he took a step forward, Wei Wei arched his hands towards Gu Yanshu:

"Princess, the prince is here."

When Gu Yanshu heard this, he raised his brows slightly.

He knew that the secret guards around Qin Lu had a special method of sound transmission, which was similar to the sound transmission into secrets that later generations said.

Now that Zhige would say this, it is naturally not aimless:

"Are you on the first floor?"

"It should be not far away." Zhi Ge lowered his head slightly, and glanced outside the door.

At this glance, Gu Yanshu understood.

Qin Lu should be not far from the private room, and he didn't knock on the door, probably to disturb him.

Now that the contract has been signed, Gu Yanshu naturally wouldn't keep Qin Lu waiting for a long time, stood up directly from his seat, and nodded slightly to Zhou Wenyang:

"The private room has already been renewed. Patriarch Zhou can stay here until Guiyuanju closes. There are still some things in the hall, so I won't accompany you."

After finishing speaking, he took Zhi Ge and Bai Shu and walked out the door.

When Bai Shu opened the door, Gu Yanshu paused, and left a sentence without beginning or end:

"This hall is Princess Li."

After finishing speaking, he left the room directly, and he had already seen Qin Lu's figure.

Zhou Wenyang stared at Gu Yanshu's back steadily, and watched him walk to a corridor not far from us, and there was a person standing there.

Although Zhou Wenyang didn't see it clearly, but from Zhi Ge's words just now, as well as the current actions of Zhi Ge and Bai Shu, it can be guessed that it should be the rumored His Royal Highness Li Wang.

Then Zhou Wenyang saw that Gu Yanshu didn't know what he had said to King Li, and then smiled lightly, while King Li reached out, touched Gu Yanshu's head, and then wrapped the cloak around Gu Yanshu's body.

Even if he couldn't hear the sound, Zhou Wenyang could vaguely feel the intimacy between the two and His Royal Highness Li Wang's love for Gu Yanshu.

At this time, Zhou Wenyang finally understood that the last sentence Gu Yanshu said when he left was not to emphasize his own identity, but to answer his last question——

Although the imperial business status is not high, but the annual income is not cheap.

Tianqi's imperial merchants are all rich and wealthy.

He is the concubine of Li Wang, so he felt that he would not allow the eldest prince to have an imperial merchant under his command...

At this time, Zhou Wenyang was completely convinced of Gu Yanshu:

Losing at the hands of such people, my sons and the Zhou family will not suffer.

The Zhou family is dying now, but I just don't know how long His Highness the First Prince can last?

He also thought that the marriage between Prince Li and Concubine Li was facilitated by the eldest prince and the noble concubine.

Zhou Wenyang even got into the mood of going to the theater together, wondering if he would regret it later when the First Prince was defeated and recalled this matter?

As for the Zhou family's daughter who has married into the First Prince's Mansion...

If it is possible, then they will be taken out, if not, then they can only give up.

The current Zhou family is already riddled with holes and cannot withstand any waves.
