Chapter 147 The descendants of the Cheng family join the Yibo Building
"this....."
Seeing Cheng Ruobing vomiting bitterness, Xue Song paused.
My brother is very carefree, and he will never be pretentious as long as he gets by with things. If he can complain like this, he must have reached the point where he can't bear it.
"Later I heard that my eldest brother was prospering in the world, so I thought about living a life together with my eldest brother, so that I no longer have to suffer the arrogance of the governor!"
Cheng Ruobing stared at Xue Song.
It seems that no matter whether you agree or not, I will definitely not leave.
Once upon a time, many people who had been wronged in Guangping County thought that he was the king of Guangping County and had a respected position, so they came to the house to ask him to make the decision.
What he couldn't stand the most was the people being bullied, so he wanted to solve the problems for those people.
But in the end, the governor relied on An Lushan and was not afraid of him at all.
In the end, not only were the people's grievances not repaid, but they were punished.
From that moment on, he had no intention of continuing to stay in Guangping County.
"It's okay for you to come to Dongdu to relax, and Qin Fang will return in three days. You and I will definitely be able to reunite again, but...brother, I am also working for my lord."
Xue Song shook his head slightly and said again.
Although Cheng Ruobing is a family friend, he still has the status of Guangping County Prince.
It is impossible for him to participate in the affairs of Yibo Building here, and he will still have nothing to do.
"Ah? Brother Qin Fang is coming back too? That's great! He and I haven't seen each other for several years."
However, Cheng Ruobing obviously missed the point.
"Well, after he comes back, he will go to Ruyang County to become a county captain, and he will also work for my lord."
Xue Song didn't hide anything.
He made everything clear in his letter to Qin Fang. If he didn't agree, Qin Fang would not come back.
"Being a county captain...wait a minute, brother, what did you just say? Are you also doing things for others?"
It was only then that the somewhat nervous Cheng Ruobing noticed the previous sentence.
"Well, otherwise, do you think that with my ability, I can recruit top masters like Li Taibai and Shi Sheng?"
Xue Song spread his hands.
"Then...will your master still accept people? At worst, we brothers will work for him together!"
What Xue Song didn't expect was that after thinking for a while, Cheng Ruobing actually said this.
"Let's work for him together?"
"Well! Anyway, the title of Prince Guangping is just a false one, and the salary from the imperial court will not be stopped just because I am in Dongdu."
Cheng Ruobing nodded firmly.
On the way to the Eastern Capital, he often heard various rumors about Yibo Tower. He dared to confront the Tianyin Sect and even cripple it, which was fascinating.
Although I now know that my eldest brother Xue Song is not the real owner of Yibo Tower, what does it matter?
He knew Xue Song's character, and if he could make Xue Song serve, the Lord of Yibo Tower would definitely be good too.
Anyway, as long as I can live my life happily with my brothers.
"That... that..."
Seeing that Cheng Ruobing was not impulsive, Xue Song was silent for a moment before saying,
"In that case, I will write a letter to my lord tomorrow to see what he means. If he agrees, then... you and I will work together from now on."
Cheng Ruobing looks unreliable, but he is an excellent general.
Yibo Building really lacks such talents now.
"good!"
...
As the sun sets, outside Dongdu City, people who have worked hard all day are heading home one after another.
Xuanhe Village,
Li Juan, the third king of the Li family, looked at the counselor in front of him with a look of disbelief.
"What are you talking about? Yuntianzhuang doesn't want white linen paper anymore?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Yuntianzhuang said that their manuscript business has changed, so from now on, there is no need for Xuanyang Paper Mill to supply paper, nor for Xuanyang Paper Mill to sell manuscripts for Yibo Lou."
The counselor replied in a deep voice, his face looking as ugly as possible.
By the way, since taking over Xuanyang Paper Factory, although I have not yet established a relationship with Yibo Lou, I have made a lot of money from the copy business.
In just one month, I earned more than the royal family’s salary in several years.
This gave Li Juan the idea that it wouldn't matter if he couldn't have a relationship with the owner of Yibo Tower in the future. As long as the business could continue, the Li family would not suffer losses this time.
result...
Just a few days after I was happy, I encountered something like this.
The Li family is currently hoarding a large amount of white linen paper. If it is not sold to Yuntianzhuang, this batch of goods will be completely lost.
The money earned earlier will also be lost.
"Why is this happening? Is it true that Yibolou still has too much money?"
Sitting on the chair in despair, Li Juan couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Yibolou's manuscripts are still in short supply. The Journey to the West, Romance of the Gods, Legend of the White Snake, etc. together can sell about 10,000 copies every day.
You can make a net profit of thousands of taels in one day.
What serious business is more profitable than this?
"I don't know yet, but I have sent someone to inquire about the news and I should get a reply soon."
The counselor smiled bitterly.
No one knows what the mysterious Lord of Yibo Tower is planning.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Coincidentally, just when the counselor was about to say something more, a guard appeared at the door of the lobby.
"Um?"
When the counselor saw the guard, his expression changed and he asked hurriedly,
"But there is news?"
This is the guard he sent out to inquire about the news.
"Prince Qi, just earlier today, many merchants in Dongdu received news from Yuntianzhuang, saying that the copy business in Yibo Building will be moved to Ruyang County in the future. If the merchants want to do the copy business,
You can go to Ruyang to buy it at a low price. Now some merchants have heard about it and plan to set off to Ruyang."
The guard did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly replied.
"Ruyang? The copy business has moved to Ruyang?"
Li Juan's expression changed again.
This short sentence reveals too much information.
Why did Yuntianzhuang send a message to those merchants but did not tell Xuanyang Zhifang?
Do you want to completely leave Xuanyang Paper Workshop behind?
It shouldn’t be!
Without Xuanyang Paper Factory supplying white linen paper to Yuntianzhuang, where would the manuscripts come from? Could it be that Yibo Lou has some objections to Xuanyang Paper Factory?
"Ruyang...Ruyang...Prince, is it because of Li Mo!"
On the side, the counselor suddenly had a thought.
"Li Mo?"
"Well, Li Mo has already arrived in Ruyang. He was writing books in Yibo Building. It must be for convenience."
"But even so, why did we cut off contact with Xuanyang Zhifang? Could it be that Li Mo was causing trouble behind the scenes?"
Li Juan's face turned cold.
He really couldn't think of any gap between himself and Yibo Lou. If there was any gap, it was only Li Mo.
"There is a possibility that Li Mo may have slandered the owner of Yibo Tower."
"Good on you Li Mo!"
Li Juan slapped the table angrily.
Originally, he thought about teaching Li Mo a lesson after establishing a relationship with the Lord of Yibo Tower, but unexpectedly... he was actually defeated by an army.
Li Juan and his counselor subconsciously decided on this matter.
As everyone knows, this is just wishful thinking on their part.
