Duke Cheng was in his mansion and in his clan, and his prestige was very high.
This is actually a must. If the prestige is not high enough, he will not be able to manage the Chai clan well.
If there is a weaker leader, so many members of the Chai clan have intrigues, conspired to frame and forcefully rob and occupy them for the sake of profit, and eventually there is no bottom line, they will have fallen apart long ago.
Chai Shirong was stared coldly with Duke Cheng Han's face. He was instinctively frightened and his body trembled slightly, but he was still standing there stubbornly without bowing his head to admit defeat.
His performance made Duke Cheng's eyes flash with appreciation.
Duke Cheng knew how terrible he was in the minds of many grandchildren.
Even some timids dare not come to see them alone.
I remember one time it happened to be a festival and the whole family had a dinner party. He just sat there and looked around, which scared some of his grandsons to be unable to hold even the chopsticks.
"I have taught you harshly since I was a child. Whenever I encounter something, I must put family interests first! I must have a strong family concept in my heart!" Cheng Guogong said in a deep voice with a stern face: "If everyone in the clan is like you
So selfish and just for their own interests, the Chai clan would not be a mess?”
Chai Shirong lowered his head and remained silent.
"Without the Chai clan and without the protection of the Duke's Mansion, you can be well-dressed, you can eat delicacies every day, can you show off your power in the capital? You must remember your identity! All of yours are given to the clan and the mansion.
Yours!" Duke Cheng's voice increased a little.
But Chai Shirong still didn't reply.
Duke Cheng's brows frowned a little more tightly, and threatened: "Along with that, that printing factory also belongs to the family..."
Chai Shirong suddenly looked up, his eyes were firm, and he interrupted Duke Cheng for the second time, "Jiang Long originally planned to build a printing factory by himself. I thought there was a printing factory with a name in the clan, so I was so shameless.
He works together.
Grandpa, grandson knows that after the printing factory cooperates with Jianglong, it will become a treasure pot and will make a fortune in the future, but isn’t the family the one who gets the greatest benefit? Grandson just has the management rights of the printing factory, not the printing factory.
From now on, it will be the private property of the grandson.”
He was right, but the printing factory was operated and turned into a treasure pot, representing a kind of ability!
If you have the ability, you can establish prestige in the clan and gain a certain status.
In addition, people who manage printing factories can easily reach out and deduct large amounts of money in secret.
"Hmph! The boy from the Jing family is a slippery man. He told you to build a printing factory, and he wanted to lead you into the trap. He didn't know that there was a printing factory in our mansion? The lion opened his mouth and actually wanted to make a move.
The printing factory has 50% of the accounts, do you really think he thinks you are a good brother!”
Duke Cheng snorted coldly, "Only you are kept in the dark, like a fool! He cooperated with the printing factory in the mansion to take advantage of the power of our mansion and the mature sales channels. Jingfu
It has fallen. If he doesn't cooperate with us, he can only make some money in the capital at most."
This somewhat realistic but highly provocative words made Chai Shirong stunned.
However, after standing for a while, he shook his head and said, "I believe that Brother Jiang Long truly treats my brother!
As for the power of the mansion, there are also the sales channels of the printing factory. Without these, why can Brother Jiang Long let our family share 50% of the profit in vain?"
Duke Cheng's eyes twitched, no longer admiring Chai Shirong's courage and intelligence.
I would rather be a coward who was standing in front of me at this time be a coward who could not stand the scare.
"Are you really unwilling to let go?" Seeing that what he said was useless, Duke Cheng shouted harshly!
Chai Shirong's legs shook and almost sat on the ground, but he was still stubborn. For some reason, after being scared, a moment of courage suddenly surged up and suddenly shouted back, "Is there a few from my uncle's family?"
With a brother here, I will never be able to encounter such a good opportunity to make a comeback in my life!
Grandpa, if it were you, could you let it go?"
Duke Cheng clenched his fists tightly, his face still looked angry, but in fact his heart was already soft.
After all, this one in front of him is also his own grandson.
He glared at Chai Shirong, and Gong Cheng was lingering in his heart.
It seems that lobbying or coercion with family justice is not very effective.
After a moment, his face was slightly calmer and he said gently: "It's better to do this. If you let the Jing family boy continue to cooperate with the printing factory in the mansion, grandpa will find another suitable errand for you, and ensure that the errand will never be too bad.
,how?"
To be honest, Chai Shirong and Duke Cheng faced the hard head, and felt very stressed.
Moreover, if Duke Cheng gets angry and tries not to cooperate with Jiang Long, he must be severely punished, then his fate will definitely be very miserable.
He is a descendant of the Chai family. It is okay for Duke Cheng to use clan rules and family rules to kill him.
Therefore, Duke Cheng's proposal made him somewhat moved.
If he could not have a falling out with Duke Cheng, he naturally did not want to lose his way out.
During the hesitation, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
"Grandpa's proposal is willing to accept it, but Jiang Long and his grandson have a good relationship. They are as close as brothers. If even grandson says that, he misunderstood that it was the elders in the family who forced their grandson, and the grandson gave up.
That would be bad if the printing factory management rights are."
Chai Shirong's voice also slowed down, "He will definitely unilaterally tear the contract by then."
"He has taken the manuscript to the printing factory and unilaterally tore up the contract. He is not afraid that these two books will not make half a penny?" Cheng Guogong gently tapped the table.
"Grandpa, you should understand that Jiang Long's greatest advantage and reliance is not those two books, but that he can write countless stories about the same quality! He also knows where his reliance lies, so he dares to sign the contract.
He confidently made the request to pay 50% of the accounts. Moreover, he had not finished writing those two books, but had only written half of them, so he would not care about such a small loss."
Chai Shirong shook his head and said, "In the past, it was said that Jiang Long's virtuous brother was poor in his bones. Jing Mansion was afraid that the incense inheritance would be cut off. His grandson believed it before, but since he made friends with Jiang Long's virtuous brother, he found Jiang Long's virtuous brother after several contacts.
His body looks a little thinner, but he will not die of illness.
And he is talented, quick-thinking, capable, affectionate and righteous, and well-versed in the world. Although his grandson is a few years older than him, he thinks he is far from enough."
"Oh?" Duke Cheng blinked and said, "You have such a high opinion of him?"
"To say that grandpa is unhappy, uncle's eldest brother Shihao is far inferior to Jiang Long."
Duke Cheng gently stroked his white beard and fell silent for a moment.
If the boy from the Jing family is really as smart as the grandson said, then the plan he has to make is probably going to fail.
He has another purpose to replace Chai Shirong, which is to let the candidate who manages Xinzhang Printing Factory sign a contract with Jiang Long again, and divide it into 55 and 50 into 73. The worst is that it is June 4th.
It can be divided into pieces.
Of course, I want to take the big head.
But now his grandson admires Jiang Long so much. Without seeing Jiang Long with his own eyes and being unable to determine what Jiang Long is, he is really not good at making any moves.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be beaten up and it's gone.
He had no choice but to be careful about the huge benefits that could be earned after the printing factory started construction.
After a while, Duke Cheng spoke again, but he had changed his mind, "Shirong, it is better for you to manage the printing factory. You are right. You should not let the Jing family boy misunderstand him.
If he is really a kind person, he will definitely break up and will not cooperate with our mansion at all costs.
At that time, no matter whether it is the Jing family boy or our mansion, we will suffer huge losses in vain."
When Chai Shirong heard this, his eyes lit up.
In the absence of any help, he chose to take a step back.
But naturally, I was still a little unwilling to accept the printing factory.
Moreover, he vaguely felt that Jiang Long's future was limitless. If he was always with Jiang Long, he would definitely be able to get Jiang Long's strong support in the future.
"grandfather."
Duke Cheng waved his hand to interrupt Chai Shirong, "But you have never done serious things before, and grandpa is a little worried about letting you take charge of the printing factory alone. Why not let your third grandpa and sixth grandpa send another person to help and support you?
”
"Of course." Chai Shirong responded happily.
Among the Chai clan, Chai Shirong's third and sixth grandfathers are both very capable and prestige, and have high positions and powerful positions.
"Well, I'll send someone to inform them, and they'll send someone to come tomorrow."
Chai Shirong nodded, and saw that Duke Cheng seemed to want him to retreat, he quickly spoke: "In the past, the printing factory was not under the jurisdiction of grandson. Some people in the clan had confidants and eyeliners in the printing factory, and grandson had no prestige.
If they see that they cannot rob the management rights of the printing factory, they will inevitably…”
"Grandpa understands what you mean." How smart and sophisticated Duke Cheng Guo is?
Without he finished speaking, he understood, "Grandpa will issue strict orders not to allow anyone to spy on the interests of the printing factory. If anyone dares to make small moves, the printing factory will suffer huge losses. First, think about whether it can hold on to a hundred.
Big board!”
"If grandpa didn't give any other instructions, grandson would surrender."
"Go." Duke Cheng waved his hand gently, "Grandpa will also order the printing factory staff to cooperate with you with all their strength."
"Thank you grandpa!"
Looking at Chai Shirong's cheerful figure walking out of the room, Duke Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
The third and sixth brothers, on weekdays, you are the only two of you always compete with me. Now I have not taken over the interests of the printing factory and give up some for you. Don’t let me down!
Humph, if the people you sent to mess around and mess up the matters in the printing factory, don’t blame me for being ruthless!
After thinking about the family affairs, Duke Cheng suddenly looked towards the direction of the capital again.
After a while, I shook my head gently. Jing family, the emperor... Thousands of people from the old minister's clan opened their mouths to eat, and stretched out their hands to dress. The old minister's shoulders were heavy.
Chai Shirong didn't know what Duke Cheng was thinking. After walking out of Duke Cheng's courtyard, he jumped up excitedly.
Wave your fists hard!
After that, he successfully obtained the management rights of the printing factory.
When I run the printing factory well, I make money and gain a status in the mansion... Humph!
A cold light flashed in Chai Shirong's eyes.
At that time, you can take revenge and seek justice!
