"You're not just here today to see me, are you? Is your Xingsheng Trading Company in trouble?" Li Tai smiled mysteriously.
"You know everything?" Zhang San chuckled.
"I am now in charge of the work of the newspaper office, and the competition between Xingsheng Trading Company and Xinglong Trading Company. If I didn't know about it, it would seem a bit unprofessional."
Hearing what Li Tai said, Zhang San always felt that this guy was thinking about himself, but he had no proof.
"It's easier now that you know. What is the origin of Xinglong Trading Company?" Zhang San asked directly.
"Guess!" Li Tai pretended.
"Guess what the hell, brother, my shop is being bullied in Chang'an, and you don't care, are you still a brother?" Zhang San said angrily.
"Alas! The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh!" Li Tai sighed.
Zhang San was stunned when he heard this, "What do you mean?"
"We are brothers, but I also have an older brother!"
"Brother?" Zhang San didn't expect that this shop was actually a relative of the emperor, otherwise Li Tai wouldn't have said that.
But the one who can let Li Tai call him elder brother, isn't that Li Chengqian? The current prince, that macho man who likes men?
"Is the prince behind this business?" Zhang San asked in a deep voice.
"Yeah, so how do you think I can help?" Li Tai spread his hands, expressing that he was helpless.
"Didn't you say that the Cui family is behind this business? How come the prince is involved? Besides, it seems that the prince and I have nothing to do, right?" Zhang San said speechlessly.
"On the surface, it belongs to the Cui family, but in fact it belongs to the prince. The Cui family only helps the prince take care of it."
"Then why did the prince target me?" Zhang San asked puzzledly.
"Then you have to think about it carefully, I don't know."
"Don't you know, aren't you brothers?" Zhang San didn't believe that Li Tai didn't know.
This damn fat man is not telling the truth at first glance.
"He's a real brother, but a real brother won't tell me everything, and I can't know everything."
"really do not know?"
"I really don't know. I would have told you if I knew it."
"Okay! I believe you for now." After Zhang San finished speaking, he was about to get up and leave.
"You haven't even finished the tea, so you're leaving in such a hurry?" Li Tai said when he saw Zhang San was leaving.
"You're all being targeted by the prince. Why don't I go home quickly to get ready? I'll pack away the gold and silver, which are so soft, and drink some tea. Let's go!"
Li Tai chuckled lightly, "You, a marquis, have not broken any laws, so what are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid of you two brothers!" Zhang San replied.
"What's wrong with me?" Li Tai asked in confusion.
"Anyway, if I don't get involved with you anymore, I think my problems will be less." After Zhang San finished speaking, he opened the door and left.
Li Tai did not go out to see him off, but drank a cup of tea by himself and murmured to himself: "You figured it out so quickly? You are really smart!"
When he heard Li Tai say that the actual owner of this business was the prince, Zhang San understood why the Cui family had such a reaction.
If the Cui family wants to return to its grand glory, it will be a waste under Li Shimin's hands. At most, they will be just some petty officials as big as sesame seeds and mung beans.
But if you embrace the prince's lap, then when the prince ascends the throne in the future, the Cui family will be regarded as the ministers of the dragon, and their status will be further improved.
Noble families and imperial power always go hand in hand. Although Li Shimin established a crown prince, it does not mean that the future throne will definitely belong to Li Chengqian.
There are several princes behind Li Chengqian who are capable of competing with him, especially his younger brother, King Li Tai of Wei. Therefore, Li Chengqian naturally wants to recruit some people to his command to increase his support for ascending to Dabao.
Li Chengqian valued the Cui family because the Cui family had been suppressed and it was impossible to regain its former glory. As long as he extended an olive branch, the Cui family would definitely accept it happily.
The Cui family also valued Li Chengqian's status as the crown prince, and the two parties hit it off and became partners.
As for why Zhang San was targeted by Li Chengqian, it was because Zhang San and Li Tai were too close, which made Li Chengqian jealous.
Zhang San's status is increasing day by day. At first, when he was still a county boy, he was naturally not in the eyes of everyone.
Now that he has become a county prince and is married to the Fang family, and Zhang San himself is very talented and has close relationships with Cheng Yaojin and other generals, his status is naturally different.
Although Zhang San knew that the prince wanted to cause trouble for him behind this, Zhang San was not worried at all. Li Chengqian would not be able to take the throne, and those who followed him would surely end badly.
As long as he doesn't break the law, he can't find any excuse for himself.
As for business competition, Zhang San has really never been afraid of anyone.
It turns out that the Zheng family and the Cui family wanted to bring down Sanwei Bookstore, but in the end they shot themselves in the foot and killed themselves.
However, Zhang San cannot take it lightly. Who knows if history has changed since he traveled back in time? The use of troops against the Turks was different from that in history. It was at least a year in advance, and there was still a variable of his own.
Zhang San asked Zhang Fu to drive back first, and he had to think carefully about how to go next.
In feudal society, imperial power was the law. Although he was a county prince, he was also a county prince without real power.
Oh! There should be one person now, and that is the "president" of the China Commercial Bank, Zhang San, who calls himself.
In fact, Zhang San didn't want to get involved with those princes and princesses from the very beginning, because history has proved that Li Shimin was a good emperor, but Li Shimin's sons and princesses were a bit too unbearable.
Mainly in my private life, and I also like to rebel.
This may be caused by Li Shimin’s genetic inheritance!
In the end, it seemed that Li Tai and Li Zhi were better off. One died decently in front of the prince, and the other became the emperor. Needless to say, this goes without saying.
Unfortunately, at that time, I was targeted by the Zheng family, and Li Tai was regarded as a gunman, and then they became friends by accident.
Now that things have happened, Zhang San adheres to the principle of soldiers coming to cover up water and earth, so let's take your time and watch!
After returning home, Zhang San sat in the study, quietly thinking about how to deal with it. Since the prince had already instigated people to target him twice, there must be a back-up plan later.
It is impossible to stimulate yourself in such a trivial way. In this case, the prince will be too useless.
In a few days, it would be time to prepare a full-moon banquet for his son. After thinking about it for a while, Zhang San didn’t think it was a big deal, so he started planning how to prepare a full-moon banquet for his son.
After all, the prince hasn't shown up yet, so Wang Hongping can rest assured that the trading company will leave it to Wang Hongping. Zhang Fugui has also sent a few more escorts there, as long as Xinglong Trading Company doesn't use any tricks secretly.
As for competing with Xingsheng Trading Company? Haha! Zhang San thinks the other party is still too young.
