"Master!" Shen Cha picked up the teapot placed on the small stove next to him, refilled a cup of tea for Qin Zheng, and said, "According to your statement, Erhutang did not serve the Liao royal family at the beginning, nor did it serve them. Spying on intelligence from various countries is not a deceptive sect, right?"

"That's it!" Qin Zheng nodded, "Erhutang was not even a sect in the beginning, it was just a shop. In addition to specialties from all over the Liao Kingdom, there were also silk, porcelain, tea, etc. from Daxia. etc., dairy products, medicinal materials, etc. from the Kingdom of Jin. Because of Yeluzi's special status, his shop is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Linhuang Mansion, or in the middle."

"You remember it very clearly!" Uncle Yan rolled his eyes at Qin Zheng, "You two have quite a lot of contacts!"

"Are you unhappy?" Qin Zheng came over to look at Uncle Yan and patted his shoulder, "Don't take it to heart. He wants my family to supply him with goods for a long time. Naturally, we have to investigate carefully. Especially. For a country like Liao, which has a very delicate relationship with Daxia, we need to be even more careful. However, I was not responsible for the inspection. I heard the responsible steward come back to describe it, saying that Erhutang is quite impressive, worthy of Yelu. It was opened by someone from my family. After confirming that Erhutang has the strength, our family made a contract with them. This contract also has some restrictions. For example, this contract is only valid if Yeluzi is the owner of Erhutang. At that time, if he transfers the shop to someone else, or even sells the shop, the contract will be invalid. Because we cannot guarantee the character of the successor or the person who bought the shop. A person who can be trusted. You must know that what you are most afraid of when doing business is not an evenly matched opponent, but a partner who holds you back and keeps digging holes for you." Qin Zheng sighed softly and picked up the tea cup. After taking a sip, he saw Yan Bo looking at him with a half-smile, raising his eyebrows, "Don't look at me like that, he is my friend and my trusted partner, but other than that, I have no respect for him. Special feelings. I have to say that this man is a genius in business. He has many, many ideas in his mind, which are very novel and have never been heard of by us. My housekeeper went to Linhuang After the government came back, he told us that some things are so rare that they cannot be sold in the traditional way, and special measures must be taken. I didn’t understand it at the time, but later I learned that the so-called special measures were to make them less valuable. The supply quantity of silk. For example, our family has some silk that is dedicated to the palace and can also be sold among the people. It turns out that the price is relatively high. Except for some wealthy people and officials, few people care about it. .But after using Yeluzi’s method, people lined up to grab it every day.”

"Is it because of the price reduction?" Shen Cha handed Xue Ruitian and Hongye, who had finished the fight, a handkerchief each to wipe the sweat on their faces.

"It is true that it has dropped a little, but the main thing is to promote the name of Gongsi, and to wrap the silk with beautiful packaging and sell it in limited quantities." Qin Zheng shook his head, "Originally, I thought it would be useless. There are not many people who are in demand for these things, so after a long time of tossing, it probably won’t have much effect, and what should not be sold will still not be sold.”

"Deputy Commander, you don't understand." Hongye wiped off his sweat and picked up a cup of tea that Xue Ruitian had just poured. He drank it all, then wiped his mouth and said, "There are many people in this world.

They all love vanity. In the past, your shop didn't have the name Gongsi. Many people didn't know that such expensive things were sent to the palace. But once they were sold, many people would flock to them.

They think it is worth spending a little money to buy the same silk as His Majesty and the empress in the palace, and to make clothes of the same color. They can wear such clothes to show off everywhere and show their existence and superiority.

feel."

"Are all girls like this?"

Those clothes and materials, just take a look at them, count the correct quantities, and then throw them aside."

"Master Marquis, this love of vanity and showing off is not only a privilege of girls, but also of young, beautiful, and self-righteous boys. It is precisely because of these people that the business of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief's family is so good

It’s become very good! Moreover, the most critical point is the word limited, this is the essence of the essence.”

"How do you say it?" Xue Ruitian shook his head, looked at Shen Haolin and Chen Cha, "Do you understand?"

"A little bit." Shen Haolin stretched out his hand and gestured, "Probably it's just the gimmicks. The tribute silk and the limited quantity are enough to impress those girls and boys who love beauty. Especially those who are jealous.

When a person sees that his opponent has someone, he must also have someone, otherwise he will fall into the inferior position, and he will be very unwilling to do so."

"The Duke is right, that's what he meant." Hongye snapped his fingers and turned to look at Qin Zheng, "This man is very smart and has grasped the key points of these people, so this strategy can be successful, Mr. Deputy Commander

The family really found the right person to cooperate with."

"In just one month, the shop's income was equal to the total revenue of the previous year." Qin Zheng curled his lips, "This is just one of his many strategies. There are many more that are eye-catching and amazing.

, there will always be a desire to open this person’s head and see what is inside. I have to say that in my heart, only Erhutang during the Yeluzi period is the real Erhutang

Hall. The current Erhu Hall is just like Xiaofeng said, it is a gathering place for swindlers!"

"Yes, the main thing is to talk about this!" Shen Haolin and Shen Cha both looked at Qin Zheng seriously, "We are very interested in a shop that turned into a martial arts sect, and then turned into a gathering place for liars used by the Liao royal family to spy on intelligence.

What happened to cause such a big change?"

"It all comes from the heir he personally selected." Qin Zheng said with some regret, "He is jealous of talents, and it is particularly suitable for him. In the tenth year after he founded Erhutang, his physical condition

It became very bad. Everyone had a feeling. If this person closed his eyes today, would he be able to open them again tomorrow? Fortunately, he was more upbeat, dragging his body like this, and holding on.

For a long time. During this period, he selected an heir from the Yelu clan, a person who in his opinion could carry forward Erhutang. But he never thought that this person's ambition was not just

Erhutang.”

"Is it Yelu Zongcheng?" Shen Cha frowned slightly, "Is he the one who turned Erhu Hall into this state?"

"No, no, no, when Yelv Zongcheng was young, he was not outstanding among the royal family, and no one noticed him. So, when he became the regent, many people said why he let the prisoner country. But this man was very scheming and cultivated his own power without many people noticing. However, he was indeed a talented person in governing the country. Therefore, not long after he became the regent, he conquered all the relatives of Linhuang Mansion. Gui, eradicated the power of the Xiao family, and brought the North and South Houses into his own hands."

"If it wasn't Yelu Zongcheng..." Shen Haolin looked at Qin Zheng and then at Shen Cha, "It couldn't be the old Liao King whose head was taken off by Cha, right?"

"Yes, it's him!"

"Then it's no wonder that Erhutang has become like this. The old King of Liao is not a thing. This fact has probably spread throughout the three kingdoms of Xia, Liao and Jin. How could Yeluzi, such a shrewd person, choose him as his successor? What?" Uncle Yan asked curiously, "However, when he was young, that guy was very polite and had a good-looking face, so it was easy for people to disarm him."

"Yes, he used that innocent and harmless illusion to confuse Yeluzi and asked Yeluzi to hand over Erhutang to him. After Yeluzi passed away, Erhutang closed its doors completely and became a Jianghu sect. Specifically, this I don’t know what the process is like.”

"Erhutang closed when it said it was closed? Your family signed such a contract with Yeluzi. Could it be that other people's choices are the same as yours?" Uncle Yan frowned slightly, "Wait a minute, I remember you once received an email Xin, you were in a state of despair for a long time after that day, right..."

"Yes, that letter was sent by the old housekeeper who risked his life." Qin Zheng nodded, "The old King Liao knew that he was about to take over Erhutang, so he quietly killed Yeluzi's cronies bit by bit. Well, the last person to be killed was the old housekeeper. His last wish before his death was that I could avenge him."

"Revenge?" Shen Cha was surprised, "Mr. Yelu is..."

"Yes!" Qin Zheng pressed his eye sockets, "For nearly a year, he put a very slow-acting poison into Yeluzi's decoction. So..." Qin Zheng looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "You know why Yelv Zongcheng always shows his kindness to you intentionally or unintentionally, right?"

"Yelu Zongcheng is..." Shen Cha blinked, "Mr. Yelu's illegitimate son?"

"The Yelu Clan does not have messy affairs like the Duan family. Yelu Zi is the person Yelu Clan Cheng respects the most." Qin Zheng waved his hand, "After the Erhu Hall returned to the old Liao King, it completely changed its appearance, stealing and stealing. There is nothing they don't do to cheat and kidnap. It is precisely because of these evil deeds that the old Liao King quickly accumulated huge wealth. He benefited from this, and began to figure out whether he could take advantage of these scammers. , go to various countries to spy on intelligence." Qin Zheng spread his hands, "That's all I know. After the death of the old Liao King, who took over the Erhu Hall and what it became like, I don't know much about it. .”
