Three hundred thousand taels of silver may be just a windfall for the protagonist in some cool novels, but in the real Jiajing Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, it was a fortune that could scare many people to death.
The amount of silver in the Ming Dynasty did not gradually increase until the sons and grandsons of Jiajing, through switch trade. In the Jiajing Dynasty, silver was a very valuable thing. In history, Comrade Zhao Wenhua worked diligently and greedily all his life, and was finally convicted.
It's just a few hundred thousand taels of silver.
Although Tan Xinren is a wealthy businessman in Beijing, anyone who has done business knows that businessmen do not have particularly much cash in their hands. Most of it is shops, land, real estate, etc.
Tan Xinren is usually arrogant and domineering, and has a bad reputation in the business circle. Now that he wants to sell his property to cash in, those wealthy businessmen will only take advantage of the opportunity to lower the price, so how can they show any mercy?
Tan Xinren calculated over and over again that after paying off Xiao Feng's money, there was still some left, but now with such a discount, it was not even enough to compensate him! Just when he was at a loss, one person could still settle with him.
A businessman with whom I have some friendship came to visit.
This businessman was here to be a middleman. He told Tan Xinren that Zhang Tianci agreed to take over all his business and his residence at one time for a price of two hundred thousand taels. This money, plus what he had raised before, was going to be given to Yan Shifan for his birthday.
One hundred thousand taels of silver is just enough to compensate, not a penny more.
Tan Xinren knew that the total value of all these should be at least 250,000 taels, but at this time, if it were anyone else, let alone 200,000 taels, they would not necessarily buy it even if it was 100,000 taels.
The reasons are very simple. Firstly, few businessmen have so much money. Secondly, Xiao Feng has long promised that Tan Xinren will go bankrupt. If he is willing to pay a high price to buy his property, it will be tantamount to helping him, and that is clearly talking to Xiao.
The style is right.
He has a lot of cash and is willing to offend Xiao Feng. There is probably no one in the business district of Beijing now. So Tan Xinren gritted his teeth for a long time and finally agreed. After losing everything, he still has a chance to make a comeback. If he can't pay back the money,
At least it's a crime of exile! Those people won't support him anymore!
However, Tan Xinren was still surprised: "Just Zhang Tianci? I know his wealth is definitely not more than 30,000 taels of silver. Where can he get 200,000 taels?"
The businessman sighed: "Brother Tan, are you still looking through the old almanac? Zhang Tianci made a huge profit on some futures contract of Nuomi last time. This time, he spent fifty thousand taels of silver just to secretly purchase Nuomi.
. He took 20,000 taels himself and borrowed the remaining 30,000 taels from only three houses in the capital.
He has a good reputation, and with the Heavenly Master Xiao Feng as his backing, who can't trust him? His reputation now is higher than when he acquired Nuomi. I don't know how much money he has in his hands now, but I can guarantee that he will borrow money now.
In one circle, without other merchants, the bosses of the construction team alone can raise 200,000 taels for him!"
There are at least twenty construction teams in the capital, and although they vary in size, they can still do it with an average of ten thousand taels of silver. Tan Xinren has to admit that this guess is reliable.
He gritted his teeth: "Okay, I admit defeat and give it to him!"
This big deal that shocked the entire capital was a ceremony held at Taibaiju. Firstly, it was the most upscale restaurant in the capital, and secondly, because Taibaiju was located near the Wucheng Bingma Division and the security was very good. Such a large amount was
Transactions are easily targeted by all kinds of gods.
The moment the two people pressed their fingerprints, Tan Xinren got two hundred thousand taels worth of silver notes and gold. The silver notes were big or small, and the gold was not all the whole gold ingot. It seemed that Zhang Tianci was indeed
I borrowed a lot of homes.
However, Zhang Tianci is not worried about his debts at all. Tan Xinren's three major businesses belong to him, and it is only a matter of time before he can earn back the money.
The managers of these three businesses were also present. They were just part-time workers. After changing the boss, as long as they were capable of working, they would still do the same job. Of course, the premise was that Zhang Tianci would continue to use them, so they felt a little uneasy.
.
The most reassuring person here is Chunyanlou’s mother, Yanniang. Although she also works part-time, her real backer is Chen Hong, the chief eunuch who provides the money. No matter who the employer is who provides the money, she is as stable as a rock.
Therefore, Yan Niang gave Zhang Tianci a charming look: "Boss Zhang, from now on you will be the slave's boss, and you can settle the account when you come to support me again, hehe."
Zhang Tianci blushed for a rare moment. Although it was legal and reasonable for men to visit brothels these days, there were so many people watching that he actually felt a little embarrassed.
There were also those booing next to him: "If Boss Zhang goes to Chunyan House again, it won't be the same as before. It's like marrying a famous prostitute home and becoming a concubine. There's no freshness. If you want to have fun, you'll go to another brothel."
.”
Amid the roar of laughter from everyone, Tan Xinren's face turned livid, and he did not even reach out to take the banknotes and gold on the table, because he knew that these were not his, and that he was just a passing god of wealth.
Sure enough, there was a sound on the stairs, and Xiao Feng went upstairs. Behind him were several Jinyi guards led by Shen Lian, all of them tall and tall, with extraordinary momentum. The businessmen suddenly did not dare to speak loudly.
Zhang Tianci quickly stood up and offered his seat. Xiao Feng smiled and shook his head, then looked at Tan Xinren, who looked at Xiao Feng with a livid face.
"Boss Tan, a few months ago, when you and I first met here, you said that you would let Zhang Tianci go bankrupt within half a year, and that you would let me go back to the streets to tell fortunes, and then let people destroy my stall, once every twelve months. I said that within half a year, you would let Zhang Tianci go bankrupt.
Bankruptcy, I remember correctly."
Tan Xinren had nothing to lose at this time. He also knew that Xiao Feng was not as ruthless as Yan Shifan and would not kill himself, so he said firmly: "That's right."
Xiao Feng nodded: "Now, it's less than half a year. You were once as rich as the capital, but now you are as poor as the capital. It can be seen that when the weather is crazy, there will be rain, and when people are crazy, there will be misfortune."
Tan Xinren gritted his teeth and said, "I have nothing to say after losing at your hands. You are also crazy now. Aren't you afraid of disaster?"
Xiao Feng laughed loudly: "You disrupt the market and break the rules, not for legitimate business expansion, but to steal other people's wives and daughters. Although I, Xiao Feng, are crazy, I am upright and have a bright heart. You said you were defeated at my hands.
Here, that is wrong, you have failed on the 'Tao', you have lost touch with the Tao, and without me, Xiao Feng, heaven would have killed you!"
After saying that, Xiao Feng stretched out his hand towards Tan Xinren. Tan Xinren took out a hundred thousand taels of silver notes from his arms as if tearing apart his own ribs, and put them on the table. Xiao Feng waved his hand, and Shen Lian and others
The belongings on the table were swept away, and several people walked away.
Zhang Tianci coughed and put away the paperwork: "Boss Tan, I won't push you too hard. You will move out of your current house within three days. If you don't have enough money for the car, I will leave you a hundred taels of silver here, which is enough for you to hire a car.
Anywhere.”
After everyone left, Tan Xinren sat blankly in his seat and suddenly grabbed the one hundred tael silver note. He wanted to tear it into pieces to relieve his hatred, but in the end he didn't do it and put it into his arms. Once upon a time, he Will you take this one hundred taels of silver seriously?
But today, these one hundred taels are not only money for him to move, but may also be money for his family to survive for a period of time in the future.
On the road, several people were silent. After a long time, Shen Liancai said to Xiao Feng: "What Brother Xiao just said was so righteous and righteous that it left Tan Xinren speechless. A man is happy to express his grudges, and that's how it should be."
Xiao Feng glanced at him sideways: "Shen Lian has also learned to be duplicitous? Are you still Shen Lian? You can't be someone else pretending to be you."
Shen Lian smiled awkwardly, and so did the Jinyi guards.
"You think I've gone too far, don't you? Jinyiwei Nan Town Fusi is in charge of the capital, and North Town Fusi is running around on errands, so he's half a Jianghu person. What you think in your mind is that I'm not very particular about beating up a stray dog, and I'm not generous enough. "
An outspoken young general said: "I don't dare to do this because I am a low-ranking official. I just feel that your Excellency has already won a complete victory. It would be beneath my status to waste words with that guy anymore."
These people are all close friends that Shen Lian has made in Jinyiwei these days. Xiao Feng respects Shen Lian and naturally does not treat them as outsiders. What's more, several people have sacrificed their lives that night to help, so it can be regarded as a life-long friendship.
"I didn't say what I said to Tan Xinren. Many people in the capital know that I bet with Tan Xinren, but not all of them know the reason. I said it in public to let everyone understand that Tan Xinren went too far to deceive others. I I just helped Zhang Tianci get justice. Otherwise, no matter what, I am still an official, and I am challenging Tan Xinren, which is not a good thing in itself."
Everyone suddenly realized, Shen Lian said: "Then what you said later was also on target?"
Xiao Feng smiled: "Of course, his misfortunes were caused by madness, and God wanted to deal with him. I just acted according to nature. This is the 'Tao'."
Everyone was thinking to themselves, others blame others, but you blame God. This blame is high enough.
Shen Lianruo had some realization: "Master Lu always said that I have bad intentions but I am not convinced. What Brother Xiao said today made Shen suddenly enlightened!"
Xiao Feng smiled faintly, and Lu Bing's evaluation was fair. In history, Shen Lian sought death all the way and was strict with the party, but Lu Bing was unable to save him in the end. Although he left a name in history, his end was tragic after all. , not even his son survived.
Since God arranged for him to meet Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng must never let history go on like this. No one of Xiao Feng's friends and relatives can touch him. I'm sorry, Shen Lian, for delaying you from leaving your name in history.
At this time, in Yan's mansion, the Iron Triangle of the Yan Party was having a meeting, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
Zhao Wenhua, who lost a money bag, was inevitably dejected. Although Tan Xinren was not indispensable to him, it was still a major source of income. It was not easy to cultivate one from scratch.
Yan Shifan was also very angry. Although he was much richer than Zhao Wenhua, Xiao Feng took away the hundred thousand taels that Tan Xinren had brought to his lips, and he almost fell into the pit of losing the Sacred Heart. Although the actual harm is not great, it is extremely insulting.
On the contrary, Yan Song is very calm. Although he is not as good as his son in terms of IQ, he is only slightly inferior. What makes him better than his son is that he has been a minister for many years, has a deep mind, a calm temperament, and does not easily get angry or angry.
Therefore, only he can say the most serious words at this time: "Xiao Feng is a nobody, an insignificant person, and he was not willing to fall out with Lu Bing and others because of him. But after all his efforts, he has gained fame and fortune.
, and it has become the hope of the opposition. It seems that it cannot be ignored."
Zhao Wenhua showed a rare murderous look: "He is just a scholar, and someone else did the martial arts competition for him. In my opinion, let Donglou send someone to kill him!"
Zhao Wenhua usually despises fighting and killing, and he thinks that is not polite enough. It can be seen that now he really hates Xiao Feng.
Yan Shifan also calmed down under his father's influence, and looked down upon his godbrother as usual: "I know how to fight and kill, but now is not the time to fall out with Lu Bing. In fact, there is a better way!"
