Chapter 984

"Three days ago... the small one ended up reconciling the account and gave the eight major families of Xiliang an excuse to send bonuses. All the prefectures went there, but the eight major families all said that although the empress promised to detain the son, she would not I don't know how the young master offended the empress about his business in Xiliang, but I think the empress of Xiliang has imprisoned young master Fengnian for so many days, and it shouldn't be long before he will release young master Fengnian. Don't worry about it and send the little one away, the little one is incompetent... I still don't know why Mr. Fengnian was sent to prison."

Bai Qingqi frowned, shook her head, and tapped her fingers on the table next to her: "You can't say that, even if you can inquire about the nobles of the royal family in Xiliang, they don't know why the Empress of Xiliang sent Young Master Fengnian Go to prison, this is also a clue."

Before coming here, Bai Qingyan and Bai Qingqi had said that this Chen Qingsheng...has an outstanding talent in networking, he has three teachings and nine schools...As long as Chen Qingsheng wants to make friends, he can make friends with him, and he is a good hand at inquiring about news.

If Chen Qingsheng found out that the Xiliang emperor's relatives and nobles didn't know why Bai Jintong was imprisoned, then he thought...it was because the Xiliang empress never revealed a word to the outside world.

Chen Qingsheng seemed a little annoyed. The eldest girl asked him to follow the third girl, hoping that he would be able to inquire about reliable information at critical times like this, but he hadn't even been able to find out why the third girl was in prison until now.

Chen Qingsheng said angrily: "The money has been spent, and the relationship has been entrusted, but up to now, I have not seen Mr. Fengnian. I only found out that Mr. Fengnian was locked in the sky prison. The empress of Xiliang visited three times. , the little one didn't even find out whether the young master Fengnian was punished or not! I'm really ashamed."

Bai Qingqi held her breath, picked up the teacup in hand, and asked again: "Mr. Fengnian's business in Xiliang, has it really not been affected since he was imprisoned?"

"It really hasn't happened!" Chen Qingsheng replied honestly, "At first, some shopkeepers suggested closing the shop first, but I thought...to keep the shop open to prove that Mr. Fengnian has a clear conscience, and...if there is a problem with the shop, he will tell you There is a big problem with Mr. Fengnian, and I thought...if the Empress of Xiliang hadn't done anything to the shop, I think...Mr. Fengnian's place would not be too difficult."

Xiao Ruohai, who had already done some investigation in Yunjing, said, "I'm not sure, after all...Mr. Emerald brocade, the price of emerald brocade is high, and the price of Xiliang fur in Dazhou is also very high, in the past, the people who farmed in Xiliang... could rely on grain to make a profit."

"But now the people of Xiliang capture their prey by making emerald brocades, peel their furs, and hand them over to Mr. Fengnian's shop, and then transport them to Dazhou by Mr. Fengnian's caravan, so as to make a lot of money from Dazhou. Get a share of the business, but there are several big merchants who collect emeralds, brocades and furs from Dazhou, Dayan, and Tianfeng Kingdom, and they only accept goods from Mr. Fengnian."

"Because Tianfeng Kingdom's papermaking technology is advanced and the cost is extremely low, Yan Kingdom needs a huge amount. The nobles of several major families in Xiliang all donated money to participate in papermaking from Mr. Fengnian. They recruited the people to make paper and sent them to Yan Kingdom to obtain Li! It can be said that in such a short period of time, the shops of Mr. Fengnian can penetrate into the livelihood of the people of Xiliang. "

Bai Qingqi knocked on the table for a moment, as if she had grasped the key point suddenly, so he understood what Jintong was going to do in Xiliang.

Bai Jintong participated in the livelihood of Xiliang people...

It is to weaken Xiliang with commercial methods and pinch the lifeblood of Xiliang's population.

"Master Fengnian, can you still do the food business?" Bai Qingqi asked.

Chen Qingsheng nodded: "Young Master Fengnian will sell the grain collected from Dazhou and Yan Kingdom to Xiliang people..."

The thinking in Bai Qingqi's mind became clearer, and she asked: "How about the profit?"

Chen Qingsheng also seemed to have thought of something, he looked at Bai Qingqi and said, "Young Master Fengnian transported the grain to Tianfeng Kingdom and Xiliang respectively, Tianfeng Kingdom's grain business is profitable, but... Xiliang The food business is just right to break even."

Xiao Ruohai had doubts before, but now he is sure that the third girl was arrested, probably because of this incident...

Bai Qingqi's thin lips were tightly pursed, thinking that the Empress of Xiliang might have sent someone to investigate, and even thought that Bai Jintong would use this method to weaken Xiliang, so she arrested Jintong.

It seems that this empress of Xiliang became wary of Bai Jintong after reading the stories about buying a deer to control Chu and buying a fox to descend to the next generation.

Xiao Ruohai looked at Chen Qingsheng and asked again: "Then, what about other businesses? Has Mr. Fengnian's business of buying emerald brocade and fur at a high price and sending them to Jin Kingdom ever made a profit?"

Chen Qingsheng looked at Xiao Ruohai and nodded quickly: "It's a profit, and it's a huge profit!"

Xiao Ruohai turned his head, looked at Bai Qingqi, and bowed to Bai Qingqi: "Third son, Ruohai thinks that...Mr. Mr. Fengnian naturally wants more people from Xiliang to participate in it, the price of food is lower, and the people are willing to spend more time on emerald brocade and furs, so Mr. Fengnian will naturally earn more profits."

"That's right! It's normal for a businessman to seek profit!" Chen Qingsheng said.

Bai Qingqi nodded and looked at Chen Qingsheng: "Your Master Fengnian must have said the same thing, otherwise... it would be more than just being imprisoned. It's just... the empress of Xiliang has imprisoned you Fengnian for too long now. After a long time, the Eight Great Families of Xiliang probably saw that you, Young Master Fengnian, are in prison. The store is still running very well in your hands, and their interests have not been harmed at all. Therefore, for the Eight Great Families, your Young Master Fengnian It seems dispensable, so I won’t go to the Empress of Xiliang to fight for your Young Master Fengnian.”

Chen Qingsheng's face turned pale, and he hurriedly bowed to Bai Qingqi to apologize: "It's a young man who didn't think carefully, and please punish the third son."

"You acted according to the orders of your young master Fengnian. You can run the store so well when young master Fengnian is away, which shows that your ability is extraordinary and you are meritorious!" Bai Qingqi knocked on the table in front of her, teasing her. He straightened his skirt, crossed his legs, held up his teacup, and said calmly and solemnly, "Starting today... we will gradually increase the price of grain, doubling it every day, and other grain businessmen will always wait for the wind. When the empress of Xiliang is in a hurry! Then send someone back to Dazhou and order that the border customs will strictly check the entry and exit of grain merchants from now on, and find a reason to detain it, especially in the direction of Xiliang!"
