After the heavy snow, Xiangyang City was covered with silver and charming, and the morning light reflected on the snow on both sides of the street, reflecting a series of cold and cold lights, which was very dazzling.
Yang Si was sitting leisurely at a food stall at the entrance of Ping'an Lane in the north of the city, drinking hot porridge
With one mouthful of throat, the slender eyes narrowed into a thin slit. It seemed that what I drank was not the extremely ordinary porridge, but the delicacies of mountains and seas, and the feeling was very enjoyable.
There was no way to find the fatigue of the hard work of last night on his face. His slender eyes were full of spirit, and a smile hung on his fat face.
Since the Yingying Cliff's victory last night, she defeated Meng Caiyi's army and expelled from Xiangyang. Instead of seeking credit for Wen Shizhong, Yang Si parted ways with Wen and Nangong coalition forces and came to this food stall in Ping'an Lane alone to drink porridge.
He naturally knew that if he went to see Wen Shizhong at this moment, he would definitely receive Wen Shizhong's extremely high courtesy and rewards. Money, beauty, wine and food are no problem at all. However, compared to these, the next thing to do is more important
The purpose of your own survival is not only to avenge revenge, but also to fulfill the last wish of scattering flowers, and to do all your strength to protect the Eagle Sword! If you hope that the Eagle Sword will survive in this martial arts world where enemies are everywhere and quarrel, you must constantly strengthen your strength. It is best to establish your own power team and cede the land and win the dominance. If you have always been in the current situation of being alone and running around, not only will you have no hope of revenge, but after a long time, you will eventually be swallowed by all forces and not even left.
This matter has been outlined in Yang Si's mind for a long time. At this time, the time is gradually ripe. Finally, it is time to enter the stage of implementation. Taking Xiangyang as the basis, establish a force belonging to the Eagle Sword and his own, and cede the land and dominate the world!
The battle last night was nominally to understand the threat of Meng Caiyi to the Wen family in Xiangyang, but he and Eagle Knife ultimately benefited.
Today's current situation is the most beneficial to the Huaxi Sword Sect that unifies the Jiangnan region.
Meng Caiyi's strategy of planning for Jiangbei is very simple and direct. On the basis of not affecting the stability of the rear, he used an elite force with a very small number of people to use the power of unifying Jiangnan to unite the south of the Yangtze River and jointly attacked Xiangyang with the Lantao Yaxuan and Zongyi Mountain City located in the north of the Wen family. He first found a foothold in Jiangbei as a springboard and stronghold for annexing the heroes of Jiangbei, and controlled the water transportation of the Yangtze River, opened an economic and trade channel deep into Bashu and inland areas, and used the huge benefits brought by the golden waterway of the Yangtze River to manage the rear and cultivate reserve forces.
At the same time, if the Wen family is destroyed and the subtle balance of power of the eight valleys in Jiangbei is broken, the eight valleys will inevitably fight for their respective interests.
One is to accumulate energy and watch the fire across the bank. Not only did it stabilize the rear, but it also took advantage of the opportunity to replace a large amount of new blood to replenish the source of troops. It will reach an unprecedented peak in both military strength and economic development. The other is that its strength continues to melt in the civil strife, with many conflicts between the eight lords and deep hatred.
As one rises and the other falls, the comparison of strength between the two sides can be imagined
By then, the Huaxi Sword Sect will take advantage of the convenience of traffic between Xiangyang and the water and land to attack Jiangbei... Hehe, the time for the Huaxi Sword Sect to dominate the world is just around the corner
Ridiculously, Lantao Yaxuan and Zongyishancheng have formed an alliance with the evil wolf of Huaxi Sword Sect to attack the Wen family for a little bit of flies, but they don’t know that in the near future, they will become the ally of Huaxi Sword Sect’s American food on the plate.
Meng Caiyi's plan is simple and practical, and it is really beautiful. If it is successfully taken down Xiangyang and controlled the Yangtze River waterway, everything will be irreversible.
Fortunately, at this critical moment, she turned passive into initiative, defeated her ambush in Shenyuan in one fell swoop, resolved her and Lantao Yaxuan, and the siege of Xiangyang by the Shancheng Mountain City, which made her plan still in her womb.
The most important thing is that Nangong Jianxue, the representative of the Nangong family, judged the situation, made a very correct choice, and reached an alliance with him.
With the support of the Nangong family for themselves, Meng Caiyi's elite troops were gone in 100% of them. Her dream of going north in a short period of time has completely shattered.
The significance of Nangong Jianxue's appearance was not only to help her side win the battle of Chenyuan, but also to let Meng Caiyi know that the Nangong family has joined forces with the Wen family to fight against foreign enemies.
If Meng Caiyi wants to continue to advance north, she must first consider Wen. This is a fatal factor that has increased its strength after the alliance between Nangong.
Xiangyang's land spirit is an excellent place for its own development and growth
For the Wen family, the battle of Chenyuan was to curb Meng Caiyi's ambition to go north to embezzle Xiangyang and preserve his foundation. However, he tried his best to fight against Meng Caiyi's army so hard and alone was definitely not to make the old fox Wen Shizhong, but to create a space and opportunity for development for himself and the Eagle Sword.
In other words, if Xiangyang is taken away by Meng Caiyi, then I and the Eagle Sword can only continue to die. If Xiangyang is still in the hands of Wen Shizhong, I will have the opportunity to take over the Wen family and replace him.
The most subtle thing is that because Meng Caiyi was watching Dandan, Wen Shizhong would have to rely on himself and the Eagle Sword to fight Meng Caiyi. In this way, he would be able to do many things he wanted to do in the name of the Wen family, which is very beneficial to him.
Red maples on both sides of the alley are withering, falling on the snow and red like blood
Yang Si was drinking porridge in his mouth, but his eyes were staring at the fallen leaves on the ground in a daze.
The next road is not easy. He and Eagle Sword are two powerless and powerless paupers. It is really easy to fight the world with bare hands and fists under the nose of the old fox Wen Shizhong and build up their own power team.
Yang Si smiled slightly
It is certainly difficult, but because of the extremely difficult process, the satisfaction and pride that comes after success is incomparable to anything.
But I, Yang Si, have to do what others cannot do. This is my Yang Si’s style!
Although Wen Shizhong has been working hard in Xiangyang for decades, his power has long been deeply rooted.
However, for the natives in Xiangyang, he is an outsider, and this is exactly the key to being able to use it.
As long as we target this point, we can make good use of it, support the local forces in Xiangyang, and take advantage of the time when the Wen family is in internal and external difficulties, and we can definitely replace it.
That's why I hope to see Tiebao Du Ju today
Tiebao Du Ju's name can be said to be unknown in the martial arts world, but it is well-known in the Xiangjing area.
The Du family is a local rich man in Xiangyang. With the convenience of water and land transportation in Xiangyang, he started his business by operating goods from north to south. After he became famous, he also dabbled in various businesses about people's livelihood such as cloth, grain, money shops, pawn shops, etc. There are countless fertile land and bulgardens under his name. There are more than a dozen shops in the commercial area of Dongmen, Xiangyang, whose wealth is obvious.
In Du Ju's generation, although the Du family's popularity weakened due to Wen Shizhong's entry into Xiangyang, the Du family was a local wealthy family in Xiangyang and monopolized several businesses related to people's livelihood. Its influence on the Xiangjing area has not been weakened. Sometimes even the government has to rely on it.
Du Ju is a man with a strong temper and has not liked studying since childhood. He is very naughty.
At the age of eleven, he was loved by a monk who traveled around for helping an injured beggar and was taught martial arts.
After learning martial arts, Du Ju even called his friends to gather his friends to harm the countryside. First, because he was proficient in boxing, more than a dozen ordinary strong men were not his opponents. Second, the Du family was rich and powerful, and ordinary people could not afford to provoke him at all. Therefore, as long as it did not cause death, he would swallow his anger and let him make trouble.
Over time, Du Ju became a domineering Xiangyang when he was young, and no one dared to provoke him. Until he was nineteen years old, a major change occurred.
At that time, there was a wealthy family in the north of Xiangyang City. There was a beautiful concubine named Yuzhu in her family. She was as beautiful as a flower.
By chance, at a temple fair, the beauty Yuzhu met the hero Du Ju by chance
After seeing Du Ju young and handsome, he was majestic in the countryside and was a wealthy family, the law of beauties loving heroes from ancient times to the present was immediately confirmed. He couldn't help but fall in love with Du Ju at first sight, and his eyes were filled with love and touching Du Ju.
Du Juzheng was in a hot-blooded boy, how could he resist the woman's teasing? When his head became hot, he secretly kneaded the woman a few times under the cover of his party members, which made the woman feel weak and soft. He just regretted that the temple fair had many eyes and could not do anything.
This kind of thing was nothing to Du Ju. At most, it was just a romantic encounter, but I forgot it afterwards
However, this incident felt different for Yuzhu. I thought that she was a young and beautiful woman. Because of her poor family, she had to marry an old man as a concubine. She could not satisfy her mentally and physically. She could be said to be the biggest hatred in her life.
It would be fine if I hadn't met Du Ju, but since I met Du Ju, my mind would naturally become active
So, the more Yuzhu looked at Old Man Chen, the more she disliked her eyes. She thought about it day and night, and her mind was full of Du Ju's figure.
Finally, the magic of love could not resist, Yuzhu bribed the maid to send a letter to Du Ju for a while.
When Du Ju received the letter, he couldn't remember who Yuzhu was. However, the beauty had an appointment and she had to go even if the sky fell.
To be honest, if he remembered that Yuzhu was the beautiful woman he met by the temple fair that day, he might not go there. Just because he couldn't remember, there was a special temptation, which made people want to see who this bold woman who had an affair with him was.
On the agreed day, Du Ju entered the house without any effort and looked at the beauty under the lamp leisurely, just like returning to his own home.
At first, the two of them were drinking and having fun, flirting with each other, and after a certain time, they naturally hugged each other and made a good thing.
One of these two people is a vigorous improvement in energy, and the other is Qu Yichenghuan's lingering relationship. After a night, both parties were very satisfied with each other's performance. When they broke up, they couldn't help but feel reluctant to part with each other's performance.
The first time that was too perfect, Du Ju and Yu Zhu were obsessed with it and wanted to meet again and reenact the romantic scene.
Since then, the young man Du Ju has become a regular visitor to the beautiful Yuzhu. He has visited Yuzhu far more often than Mr. Chen.
With such frequent interactions, how can you not attract Mr. Chen’s attention?
Finally, a disaster inevitably happened
One night, Mr. Chen returned early at the banquet and came to his concubine's boudoir by drinking. Sure enough, he encountered Yuzhu in disheveled clothes and snuggled in a boy's arms. The boy saw that the opportunity was not good and immediately slipped through the window.
At that time, he had not seen who the adulterer was. If he knew it was Du Ju, he might have swallowed his anger. After all, the Du family has a great wealth and power, and most people dare not provoke him easily.
So he took advantage of the alcohol and torture Yuzhu, hoping that she could confess the adulterer's name.
The jade bead was quite tough. She really loved Du Ju and would rather die than give Du Ju.
Mr. Chen was so angry that he tortured himself, forgot the importance of the matter for a while, and even beat Yuzhu to death.
As soon as Yuzhu died, Mr. Chen also sobered up with wine.
He realized that he had caused a big disaster and packed his bags overnight and ran away with him.
After Du Ju slipped out of the Chen family, he was worried and sent someone to inquire about the news. When he learned that Yuzhu was beaten to death by Mr. Chen, he felt sad and angry. He took a knife and chased him out of the city thirty miles away. He caught the escaped Chen family and cut off Mr. Chen's head with one knife, and then surrendered himself to the government office.
The Du family only has such a son, so naturally he would not let him die. He spent countless money and finally rescued him two years later.
But because of this lawsuit, the Du family sold many industries, and their family was not as good as before. Moreover, Du Ju's mother was too scared and couldn't afford to get sick. Before Du Ju was released from prison, she let out her life.
Although Du Ju is stubborn and unscrupulous, he is extremely filial to his mother. He knelt in front of the dead mother for three days and three nights, and made a vow to make a new comedy.
Because Du Ju stayed in prison for two years and met many people from the Tao, he was a great scholar and generous person. Of course, many people were willing to use it for him.
In this way, he used various characters to revive his family's business and it was surprisingly smooth. In less than a few years, it not only made the Du family regain the old scenery, but also made him a person who could enjoy both black and white in Xiangyang...
Du Jucai is very powerful and has a vast number of friends in Xiangyang. He has a large number of people under his command to do things for him. This is why Yang Si chose him.
Is it really a natural hard work? Why can some people lie comfortably in a woman's warm bed, but I want to drink the northwest wind here? It's really different from the fate of others... When I think of the bastard who is Eagle Knife, maybe he is very happy to be with Danyue, Yang Si sighs his life is bitter
With a creaking sound, the door of a Chinese house in the alley on the right opened, and three people came out of the door.
Yang Si came back to his senses and looked at him carefully. He saw that the leader was about forty years old, with short beards and purple faces, and was majestic. He had a strong and tough aura between his eyebrows and eyes. Although it was the cold winter, his clothes were thin and he was not afraid of the severe cold after the snow.
Yang Si secretly praised it, and it was indeed worthy of the name of Tiebao. Just looking at his dragon-like and tiger-like posture, you can tell that Du Ju is sophisticated and refined, which is very different from the rich people who are usually interested in enjoyment. Instead, he has the characteristics of free and easy and at ease among the people in the martial arts world.
Yang Si pushed the table up, took out a few copper coins and threw them to the food stall owner, and went forward to clasp his fists and said: Are you Du Ju? It's true that I deserve the name of Tiebao, Yang Si...
Du Ju saw a vulgar short and fat man coming to chat with him, and wanted to ignore him, but when he heard Yang Si's name, his heart suddenly jumped. He remembered someone and stopped and asked: I am Du Ju dare to ask, "Is it Yang Si from the Heavenly Demon Palace, and Yang Si, the wise man?"
Yang Si smiled slightly and said: I am the name of Yang Si wise man in the Heavenly Demon Palace, I really dare not be
Du Ju was shocked and scared
This is a big shot!
But I don't know why he came to him?
Although the person in front of him looked short, fat and ugly, Du Ju dared not look down on him at all.
People like Yang Si can turn their eyes casually and come up with a hundred ideas to make themselves want to survive but die. That is, they can't afford to offend no matter what.
Du Ju clasped his fists and said: I don’t know... I don’t know that Mr. Du is coming, and Mr. Du is in a hurry to welcome him. Please forgive me! Because he was too nervous, he even stuttered.
Yang Si smiled and said: I took the liberty myself and came uninvited. Why did Brother Du Ju blame me for?
Du Ju said nervously: Mr., there must be something important to discuss here. Please tell me if you can do what Du can do.
Yang Si smiled and said: It is true that there are some things that come to discuss with Brother Du Ju, but... this is not a place to talk. Can you invite me in for a cup of tea? Let's talk about it slowly?
Du Ju secretly scolded himself for being confused and hurriedly invited Yang Si into the mansion
Yang Si followed Du Ju into the mansion
Du Mansion does not cover a wide area. Although its scale is not as luxurious as the Wen family, it can be seen that the pavilions, terraces, curved corridors, flowing water, flowers, plants, trees, etc. are carefully conceived, and the exquisiteness is even better than Wen Mansion.
Passing through a courtyard in front of the lobby, Du Ju waved his subordinates and led Yang Si into the study room in the inner courtyard.
Yang Si sat down on a big chair in the study room, and a smart and well-behaved maid had already brought tea.
He took a sip of tea and looked around, but saw that the entire study was simple and generous. Except for the book collections placed on the bookcases on the four walls, there was no decoration anymore. From this, it was obvious that Du Ju was a clean and refreshing person. It would be best to go straight to the point when speaking to such a person. If you try it around the bush, it would be easy to cause his disgust.
He smiled and said: I didn't expect that Brother Du Ju is also a book lover. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it even if I was beaten to death.
Du Ju laughed and said: I'm not to be hiding, Mr. Du, a rough man, will doze off when he holds up the book. Where is the book lover? These books are just used to pretend, but I have never read a single one...
Yang Si smiled and said: I said that's true. If Brother Du really likes studying, how can he have so much free time to run a business? Well... Brother Du's time is precious, so I don't have to beat around the bush. Yang Si is here to talk about a business with Brother Du.
Du Ju asked suspiciously: Business? What kind of business?
Yang Si smiled and said: Of course, it is a business that can make us rich. I heard that Brother Du’s business focuses on managing grain, cloth and goods from both sides.
Du Ju nodded
Yang Si smiled and said: This is indeed a good business. Xiangyang has convenient transportation. It transports rice and silk from the south of the Yangtze River to the north for sale, and then transports big millet and dry freight from the north to the south for sale. I think it will definitely make a lot of profit.
Du Ju smiled bitterly and said: That's it, but the situation is actually very different from what the teacher said. In fact, the profits brought by these businesses are extremely meager. If I hadn't had a money shop, pawn shop and loan interest collection, I would have been unable to support it long ago.
What he said about lending and collecting interest is usury, which is a shameful and requires a large number of gangsters to support it.
This should not be said, but Yang Si is a gangster and does not care about these things. Besides, Du Ju knew that he could not hide it from Yang Si, so he simply accepted this matter directly
Yang Si asked deliberately: Why is this?
Du Ju hesitated and finally sighed: The first thing to do when trading goods in the north and south is that the main focus is on transportation of land transportation, the cost is high, and the small transportation volume of vehicles and horses is the biggest disadvantage. The real profit is water transportation. However, now the Yangtze River water transportation is controlled by the Wen family, and others cannot interfere... Alas, do you know how much money you have to pay to the Wen family from Jiangnan to Xiangyang? It's a total of 870 taels! After deducting tariffs from various places, the docking fees and labor costs of boats, the net profit in my hands is at most 200 taels. This is still good. If you are not lucky, if you encounter bad weather, you will have to overturn the ship once, even if you ship ten more trips, you will not be able to make up for it.
Yang Si smiled and said: So that's the case, but there is no other way to think about it?
Du Ju said depressedly: The entire Yangtze River water transportation is controlled by the Wen family, what can I think of?
Yang Sidao: But if the Yangtze River water transportation is controlled by you, do you think this business can be done?
Du Ju was shocked and vaguely grasped Yang Si's purpose. He said nervously: It is naturally a big business that can make money every day. There is great potential for Mr.
Yang Si smiled and said: This is my purpose, we can cooperate to take control of the Yangtze River water transportation together, and everyone will make a fortune together! As for the Wen family, please ask them to stand aside!
Although he had already guessed what Yang Si was going to do, Du Ju was still shocked after hearing him clearly speaking.
Fatty, do you know what you are talking about?!
If the Wen family was so easily destroyed, I would have done it long ago, and I still have to wait until now?!
Yang Si was sitting leisurely at a food stall at the entrance of Ping'an Lane in the north of the city, drinking hot porridge
With one mouthful of throat, the slender eyes narrowed into a thin slit. It seemed that what I drank was not the extremely ordinary porridge, but the delicacies of mountains and seas, and the feeling was very enjoyable.
There was no way to find the fatigue of the hard work of last night on his face. His slender eyes were full of spirit, and a smile hung on his fat face.
Since the Yingying Cliff's victory last night, she defeated Meng Caiyi's army and expelled from Xiangyang. Instead of seeking credit for Wen Shizhong, Yang Si parted ways with Wen and Nangong coalition forces and came to this food stall in Ping'an Lane alone to drink porridge.
He naturally knew that if he went to see Wen Shizhong at this moment, he would definitely receive Wen Shizhong's extremely high courtesy and rewards. Money, beauty, wine and food are no problem at all. However, compared to these, the next thing to do is more important
The purpose of your own survival is not only to avenge revenge, but also to fulfill the last wish of scattering flowers, and to do all your strength to protect the Eagle Sword! If you hope that the Eagle Sword will survive in this martial arts world where enemies are everywhere and quarrel, you must constantly strengthen your strength. It is best to establish your own power team and cede the land and win the dominance. If you have always been in the current situation of being alone and running around, not only will you have no hope of revenge, but after a long time, you will eventually be swallowed by all forces and not even left.
This matter has been outlined in Yang Si's mind for a long time. At this time, the time is gradually ripe. Finally, it is time to enter the stage of implementation. Taking Xiangyang as the basis, establish a force belonging to the Eagle Sword and his own, and cede the land and dominate the world!

Yang Si was drinking porridge in his mouth, but his eyes were staring at the fallen leaves on the ground in a daze.
The next road is not easy. He and Eagle Sword are two powerless and powerless paupers. It is really easy to fight the world with bare hands and fists under the nose of the old fox Wen Shizhong and build up their own power team.

One night, Mr. Chen returned early at the banquet and came to his concubine's boudoir by drinking. Sure enough, he encountered Yuzhu in disheveled clothes and snuggled in a boy's arms. The boy saw that the opportunity was not good and immediately slipped through the window.
At that time, he had not seen who the adulterer was. If he knew it was Du Ju, he might have swallowed his anger. After all, the Du family has a great wealth and power, and most people dare not provoke him easily.
So he took advantage of the alcohol and torture Yuzhu, hoping that she could confess the adulterer's name.
The jade bead was quite tough. She really loved Du Ju and would rather die than give Du Ju.
Mr. Chen was so angry that he tortured himself, forgot the importance of the matter for a while, and even beat Yuzhu to death.
As soon as Yuzhu died, Mr. Chen also sobered up with wine.
He realized that he had caused a big disaster and packed his bags overnight and ran away with him.
After Du Ju slipped out of the Chen family, he was worried and sent someone to inquire about the news. When he learned that Yuzhu was beaten to death by Mr. Chen, he felt sad and angry. He took a knife and chased him out of the city thirty miles away. He caught the escaped Chen family and cut off Mr. Chen's head with one knife, and then surrendered himself to the government office.
The Du family only has such a son, so naturally he would not let him die. He spent countless money and finally rescued him two years later.
But because of this lawsuit, the Du family sold many industries, and their family was not as good as before. Moreover, Du Ju's mother was too scared and couldn't afford to get sick. Before Du Ju was released from prison, she let out her life.
Although Du Ju is stubborn and unscrupulous, he is extremely filial to his mother. He knelt in front of the dead mother for three days and three nights, and made a vow to make a new comedy.
Because Du Ju stayed in prison for two years and met many people from the Tao, he was a great scholar and generous person. Of course, many people were willing to use it for him.
In this way, he used various characters to revive his family's business and it was surprisingly smooth. In less than a few years, it not only made the Du family regain the old scenery, but also made him a person who could enjoy both black and white in Xiangyang...
Du Jucai is very powerful and has a vast number of friends in Xiangyang. He has a large number of people under his command to do things for him. This is why Yang Si chose him.
Is it really a natural hard work? Why can some people lie comfortably in a woman's warm bed, but I want to drink the northwest wind here? It's really different from the fate of others... When I think of the bastard who is Eagle Knife, maybe he is very happy to be with Danyue, Yang Si sighs his life is bitter
With a creaking sound, the door of a Chinese house in the alley on the right opened, and three people came out of the door.
Yang Si came back to his senses and looked at him carefully. He saw that the leader was about forty years old, with short beards and purple faces, and was majestic. He had a strong and tough aura between his eyebrows and eyes. Although it was the cold winter, his clothes were thin and he was not afraid of the severe cold after the snow.
Yang Si secretly praised it, and it was indeed worthy of the name of Tiebao. Just looking at his dragon-like and tiger-like posture, you can tell that Du Ju is sophisticated and refined, which is very different from the rich people who are usually interested in enjoyment. Instead, he has the characteristics of free and easy and at ease among the people in the martial arts world.
Yang Si pushed the table up, took out a few copper coins and threw them to the food stall owner, and went forward to clasp his fists and said: Are you Du Ju? It's true that I deserve the name of Tiebao, Yang Si...
Du Ju saw a vulgar short and fat man coming to chat with him, and wanted to ignore him, but when he heard Yang Si's name, his heart suddenly jumped. He remembered someone and stopped and asked: I am Du Ju dare to ask, "Is it Yang Si from the Heavenly Demon Palace, and Yang Si, the wise man?"
Yang Si smiled slightly and said: I am the name of Yang Si wise man in the Heavenly Demon Palace, I really dare not be
Du Ju was shocked and scared
This is a big shot!
But I don't know why he came to him?
Although the person in front of him looked short, fat and ugly, Du Ju dared not look down on him at all.
People like Yang Si can turn their eyes casually and come up with a hundred ideas to make themselves want to survive but die. That is, they can't afford to offend no matter what.
Du Ju clasped his fists and said: I don’t know... I don’t know that Mr. Du is coming, and Mr. Du is in a hurry to welcome him. Please forgive me! Because he was too nervous, he even stuttered.
Yang Si smiled and said: I took the liberty myself and came uninvited. Why did Brother Du Ju blame me for?
Du Ju said nervously: Mr., there must be something important to discuss here. Please tell me if you can do what Du can do.
Yang Si smiled and said: It is true that there are some things that come to discuss with Brother Du Ju, but... this is not a place to talk. Can you invite me in for a cup of tea? Let's talk about it slowly?
Du Ju secretly scolded himself for being confused and hurriedly invited Yang Si into the mansion
Yang Si followed Du Ju into the mansion
Du Mansion does not cover a wide area. Although its scale is not as luxurious as the Wen family, it can be seen that the pavilions, terraces, curved corridors, flowing water, flowers, plants, trees, etc. are carefully conceived, and the exquisiteness is even better than Wen Mansion.
Passing through a courtyard in front of the lobby, Du Ju waved his subordinates and led Yang Si into the study room in the inner courtyard.
Yang Si sat down on a big chair in the study room, and a smart and well-behaved maid had already brought tea.
He took a sip of tea and looked around, but saw that the entire study was simple and generous. Except for the book collections placed on the bookcases on the four walls, there was no decoration anymore. From this, it was obvious that Du Ju was a clean and refreshing person. It would be best to go straight to the point when speaking to such a person. If you try it around the bush, it would be easy to cause his disgust.
He smiled and said: I didn't expect that Brother Du Ju is also a book lover. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it even if I was beaten to death.
Du Ju laughed and said: I'm not to be hiding, Mr. Du, a rough man, will doze off when he holds up the book. Where is the book lover? These books are just used to pretend, but I have never read a single one...
Yang Si smiled and said: I said that's true. If Brother Du really likes studying, how can he have so much free time to run a business? Well... Brother Du's time is precious, so I don't have to beat around the bush. Yang Si is here to talk about a business with Brother Du.
Du Ju asked suspiciously: Business? What kind of business?
Yang Si smiled and said: Of course, it is a business that can make us rich. I heard that Brother Du’s business focuses on managing grain, cloth and goods from both sides.
Du Ju nodded
Yang Si smiled and said: This is indeed a good business. Xiangyang has convenient transportation. It transports rice and silk from the south of the Yangtze River to the north for sale, and then transports big millet and dry freight from the north to the south for sale. I think it will definitely make a lot of profit.
Du Ju smiled bitterly and said: That's it, but the situation is actually very different from what the teacher said. In fact, the profits brought by these businesses are extremely meager. If I hadn't had a money shop, pawn shop and loan interest collection, I would have been unable to support it long ago.
What he said about lending and collecting interest is usury, which is a shameful and requires a large number of gangsters to support it.
This should not be said, but Yang Si is a gangster and does not care about these things. Besides, Du Ju knew that he could not hide it from Yang Si, so he simply accepted this matter directly
Yang Si asked deliberately: Why is this?
Du Ju hesitated and finally sighed: The first thing to do when trading goods in the north and south is that the main focus is on transportation of land transportation, the cost is high, and the small transportation volume of vehicles and horses is the biggest disadvantage. The real profit is water transportation. However, now the Yangtze River water transportation is controlled by the Wen family, and others cannot interfere... Alas, do you know how much money you have to pay to the Wen family from Jiangnan to Xiangyang? It's a total of 870 taels! After deducting tariffs from various places, the docking fees and labor costs of boats, the net profit in my hands is at most 200 taels. This is still good. If you are not lucky, if you encounter bad weather, you will have to overturn the ship once, even if you ship ten more trips, you will not be able to make up for it.
Yang Si smiled and said: So that's the case, but there is no other way to think about it?
Du Ju said depressedly: The entire Yangtze River water transportation is controlled by the Wen family, what can I think of?
Yang Sidao: But if the Yangtze River water transportation is controlled by you, do you think this business can be done?
Du Ju was shocked and vaguely grasped Yang Si's purpose. He said nervously: It is naturally a big business that can make money every day. There is great potential for Mr.
Yang Si smiled and said: This is my purpose, we can cooperate to take control of the Yangtze River water transportation together, and everyone will make a fortune together! As for the Wen family, please ask them to stand aside!
Although he had already guessed what Yang Si was going to do, Du Ju was still shocked after hearing him clearly speaking.
Fatty, do you know what you are talking about?!
If the Wen family was so easily destroyed, I would have done it long ago, and I still have to wait until now?!
