After hearing what Wang Yue said, Boss Zhou couldn't help but stood up, as if he was stunned, and said word by word, "In prosperity, the people are suffering, in death, the people are suffering! What a rise and fall, the people are suffering! This
One sentence tells the story of the people's situation for thousands of years. The prince is a great talent! I, Zhou Ye, am ashamed of myself!"
Among the people present, Ye Yun'er's family is from Qingliu and he wants to study hard. Boss Zhou's family is a military commander, so of course he must be familiar with military books. Gu Jiusi's family is from a merchant. Although he is not learned or skilled, he is still in Bailu.
She studied in an academy. Liu Siyu's family is from a noble family, and like Ye Yun'er, she is always reading. Although Liu Yuru was born in a merchant family, she only studied with her mother, who was born in a noble family. She also studied.
Therefore, not only Boss Zhou felt this way, but other people also thought so. When they all looked at Wang Yue, their eyes showed a little more admiration.
Wang Yue is so thick-skinned. Under the eyes of so many people, he said firmly, "One day when I make the decision in Qingzhou, I plan to test my ideas in Qingzhou, re-measure the land, and divide the fields into equal taxes.
I hope to one day take this idea to the whole country."
These people have studied these poems and songs very deeply and can read a kind of emotion from the words. They are very touched and admire the emotions expressed in the poems.
After hearing Wang Yue's thoughts, Gu Jiusi took the lead and asked, "Brother, if you do this, your family will become eternal sinners in Langya."
Wang Yue glanced at Gu Jiusi and said disdainfully, "You don't need to test me with this. Once this plan is implemented, it will indeed become a sinner for the ages in the eyes of the gentry, but in the hearts of ordinary people, it will be a sinner of the Wan family."
Buddha. For the benefit of the majority of the people, I think it is worthwhile to give up the interests of the few nobles."
After Liu Yuru heard what Wang Yue said, she said excitedly, "My husband has such a big heart, even if he goes through fire and water, I will follow him."
Ye Yun'er looked at Wang Yue as if she were looking at stars. She said incoherently, "I will tell my grandmother when I get back that I am going to Qingzhou. I want to see what kind of world you are talking about?"
"
After she finished speaking, she realized that she had missed a trace, so she glanced at Wang Yue with a slightly red face, and then saw Liu Yuru. After meeting Liu Yuru's searching eyes, she said in a panic, "Sister Liu, I,
I, I have something to do at home, so I’ll play with you another day.”
After she finished speaking, she ran away quickly, leaving everyone present looking at each other.
Gu Jiusi immediately saw the secret and said in a funny tone, "Brother, it is indeed the eldest brother. Just a few words can make people fall in love!"
Wang Yue lightly punched Gu Jiusi with his fist, and then explained to Liu Yuru, "Yuru, I..."
Liu Yuru saw that Wang Yue wanted to explain, so she quickly stopped Wang Yue from talking, and said very gently, "Husband, you don't need to say anything, I understand!"
After she finished speaking, she hurriedly bowed to everyone, and then said with a smile, "Sit down for a moment, let's go to the kitchen and give you some food to go with your drinks. We'll be back soon."
Liu Siyu stood up after hearing this and said quickly, "Sister Yuru, wait for me, let's go together."
After the two of them finished speaking, they walked towards the kitchen, leaving only Wang Yue, Gu Jiusi and Zhou Ye.
Zhou Ye looked at the embarrassed Wang Yue and the gloating Gu Jiusi, and quickly smoothed things over and said, "It's normal for beauties to love heroes. Brother Wang, I admire you!"
Gu Jiusi also knew that he was gloating too much, so he immediately said in a deep voice, "Brother, if we really want to implement this plan in Qingzhou, I will convince my mother to donate two million taels of silver to you when I go back, and it will be counted as our Gu family's
A little thought."
Wang Yue glanced at Gu Jiusi in surprise, nodded, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll keep your words in mind. When I go back, I'll have someone find a flat stone wall on Mount Tai and carve the name of your Gu family on it."
Donate and let people remember your contribution.”
When Gu Jiusi heard what Wang Yue said, she felt a little embarrassed and said, "Brother, aren't you marrying our Gu family into a barbecue?"
Wang Yue waved his hand and said in a funny way, "You are thinking too much. Some people must still be thinking that the richest man in Jiangnan only gave 2 million taels, which is too little!"
When Zhou Ye heard what Wang Yue said, he couldn't help but laugh. He nodded quickly and said, "Yes, if all your Gu family's property is realized, it will be worth tens of millions. Why don't you pay for two million cars?"
, it’s indeed a bit shabby.”
When Gu Jiusi heard what the two said, he was very speechless and said, "Who has so much cash? It would be easier to talk about it if you exchange it for supplies."
Seeing that Gu Jiusi was still serious, Wang Yue also said seriously, "How about you go to Qingzhou with your wife, and we can test my idea together. You don't have to worry that I will be thinking about your family's property. After all,
You have no land in Qingzhou."
Hearing what Wang Yue said, Gu Jiusi hesitated for a moment, and then said with some shame, "I still have to think about it. I'm actually quite confused. My family is now the richest man in Jiangnan. What can I do no matter how hard I work? Even if I go
I can't actually help you much if I go to Qingzhou, so why not work with Siyu to help you sell goods in Qingzhou."
Seeing what he said, Wang Yue didn't force himself, so he patted his shoulder and said, "Second brother, just remember this sentence, eldest brother's Qingzhou always welcomes you."
Seeing how close Wang Yue and Gu Jiusi were calling each other, Zhou Ye quickly said, "You two are sworn brothers, why don't you take me with you? I like to deal with people like you."
"
After Gu Jiusi heard what Gu Jiusi said, he immediately said excitedly, "I heard that the back garden of eldest brother's house is full of peach trees. That's where eldest brother and sister-in-law met. How about the three of us come to a peach garden to become sworn brothers?"
How about it?"
Wang Yue didn't care. Anyway, he was definitely the eldest brother at his age. He thought that Zhou Ye had a pretty good personality, so he pretended to agree and said, "No problem. The three of you and I have the same loyalty and we are sworn brothers. It's natural."
, I wonder if Boss Zhou is willing?"
After hearing Wang Yue's words, Zhou Ye stood up immediately and said excitedly, "Of course I admire Mr. Wang's talent and ambition, and I also appreciate Brother Gu's righteousness and wealth. Of course I would be very happy if I could become a sworn sworn brother with you.
willing."
Liu Yuru and Liu Siyu happened to bring people over with wine and food. When they heard what the three of them said, they quickly said, "Since you want to sworn sworn brothers, I will let my servants prepare it."
Liu Siyu was also very excited. Her husband-in-law's move was so wonderful. He immediately found two backers in Youzhou and Qingzhou for the Gu family, which really surprised her.
No matter what these two women thought, Wang Yue and the others imitated the peach orchard marriage ceremony, and they did so in the pavilion in the peach grove in the backyard where Liu Yuru often stayed.
Wang Yue is the eldest brother, Zhou Ye is the second brother, and Gu Jiusi is the third eldest brother. As for Chen Xun and Yang Wenchang, they will only be the fourth and fifth eldest brothers in the future.
After the three of them had sworn sworn vows, they went back to the front hall to drink. Naturally, the guests and hosts had a good time until late in the night before they were ready to leave.
…
Wang Yue originally wanted to leave a few people to live at home, but Zhou Ye insisted on going back to his inn, saying that one of his cousins was still there, and he really didn't feel relieved.
Gu Jiusi and Liu Siyu saw that Zhou Ye was about to leave, and they were not doing well. They stayed at Wang Yue's house for a long time, so they took their servants and helped the drunk Gu Jiusi away.
After Wang Yue saw off a few people, he walked back with Liu Yuru. He also sighed and said, "It seems that my second brother and that cousin may have an extraordinary status."
Liu Yuru didn't know much about it, so she asked with some confusion, "Why did your husband say that?"
Wang Yue walked in and said helplessly, "Think about it, my second brother is the son of General Youzhou. If he is just an ordinary cousin, he only needs to send someone to inform him. Why bother?"
Do you want to go back in person?"
Now that they had sworn sworn vows, Wang Yue went to Mrs. Gu and told her about his sworn sworn vows with Gu Jiusi, and once again proposed that the Gu family move to Qingzhou.
Mrs. Gu had already heard from her daughter-in-law yesterday. Seeing that Wang Yue had come to invite her for the third time, she was not ready to refuse, but she was still ready to ask.
So, she asked with some curiosity, "I heard from Siyu that you are planning to implement a land equalization plan in Qingzhou. Those gentry have no land. What will the merchants do?"
Wang Yue shrugged and said nonchalantly, "As long as you don't reach out to the land, you can do the rest of the business."
When Mrs. Gu heard what Wang Yue said, she knew for sure that Wang Yue's Qingzhou was simply a blessed place for businessmen.
So, he immediately changed his mind and said resolutely, "In that case, please trouble Mr. Wang and move all our property to Qingzhou instead of going to Youzhou."
Wang Yue looked at Mrs. Gu and finally changed her mind, and immediately said with a smile, "You don't have to completely offend Youzhou because of me. There is no need to move the property back to Youzhou, just leave it to Youzhou for development.
Okay. Also, Zhou Ye is my second brother no matter what, so he should be able to take care of me. I also suggested that Mrs. Zhou speed up and try to prepare the things Youzhou needs earlier, even if she pays some money,
Let them remember your kindness."
After hearing what Wang Yue said, Mrs. Gu asked with some confusion, "Why do you do this? Logically speaking, Youzhou and Qingzhou are so close, so you wouldn't want to help Youzhou."
Wang Yue looked at Mrs. Gu and seemed to need an answer, so he said seriously, "Mrs. Gu is right, I just want a favor from this second brother."
The reason why he did this was because the time left for him was too short. Unless he was allowed to take out the gunpowder again, the situation could be reversed. Otherwise, Qingzhou's current strength would not be enough to resist You.
The state's army may dominate the world.
Of course, there was another reason. He also wanted to see Luo Zishang's reaction. If Luo Zishang stopped competing with the Gu family, it would prove that he was either from Youzhou, or that he was not of the same mind as Wang Shanquan.
You know, everyone knows that Youzhou soldiers and horses have been fighting with foreign races all year round, and their strength is extremely powerful, so that Beiliang does not dare to think of going south.
However, no one knows the specific number of Youzhou Army, how many cavalry and how many infantry.
Only through this large purchase can we understand a rough figure.
As long as Luo Zishang wins orders from Youzhou, he can not only attack the Gu family, but also work for Wang Shanquan.
However, he would not tell Mrs. Gu about all this. He said that for the sake of friendship, Mrs. Gu could go to Qingzhou with peace of mind.
Sure enough, Mrs. Gu was not happy after hearing Wang Yue's reasons. She felt that Wang Yue really regarded Gu Jiusi as his third brother, otherwise he would not have considered it so thoughtfully.
Based on this beautiful misunderstanding, when the two of them later talked about the Gu family's move, they were more harmonious and smooth than before.
It just so happened that during this period, the new warships and merchant ships built in Qingzhou had been moved to Zhoushan one after another. He originally wanted to use more money and food, but now it was moved to the Gu family, which became very easy.
…
Because of Wang Yue's suggestion, Mrs. Gu personally arranged it, and Liu Siyu quickly negotiated the price. After Luo Zishang heard that it was not profitable, they stopped competing for this business.
, this made Wang Yue understand that Luo Zishang was not Wang Shanquan's person.
Originally, he thought that if Luo Zishang was from Wang Shanquan, he would consider poaching him. After all, he believed that no place in the world would be more suitable for doing business than Qingzhou.
Just looking at Luo Zishang's attitude towards Wang Shanquan, Wang Yue gave up this idea.
…
The Gu family quickly prepared what Zhou Ye wanted, which also made Liu Siyu know how powerful his mother-in-law was, and she sincerely admired her.
Seeing that his goal of going south had been achieved, Zhou Ye was ready to return to Youzhou in advance.
Gu Jiusi booked a restaurant and invited Zhou Ye to get together at the restaurant as a farewell.
Wang Yue was originally planning to have a good meal at home, but Gu Jiusi felt that Zhou Ye finally came to Yangzhou once, and he didn't know when he would come again next time, but he still wanted to have a good experience of life in Yangzhou.
Wang Yue was speechless, so he let Gu Jiusi show off. Anyway, this kid had a lot of money. It was said that his monthly pocket money was five thousand taels, so he didn't mind helping this kid spend more.
Because it was mainly to let Zhou Ye see it, although Gu Jiusi spent a lot of money, he didn't actually drink. He mainly wanted to take Zhou Ye to take a good tour of Yangzhou in the afternoon.
After dinner, the three brothers walked around Yangzhou together. They went to places that Zhou Ye had never been to before. Unexpectedly, they happened to see Liu Yuru, Liu Siyu and Ye Yun'er outside a security guard.
Seeing Wang Yue coming over, Liu Yuru quickly stopped and explained to Wang Yue very obediently, "Husband, aren't we leaving Yangzhou soon? I just wanted to see Yangzhou again, but I didn't expect to be here.
