Chapter 377: Little God of Wealth Takes Action (Three in One Chapter)(2/2)
And how did the one who sold the house turn around? Do you have a bloody feud with Gaochang?
There is also the elder brother who is calling for a concubine. Are you serious? Do you have a grudge with your little wife? If you have grudges, you can separate immediately, but don’t get involved in my situation today, as it is easy for people to misunderstand...
Du Shaoqing quickly stood up and pressed everyone down.
Seeing that this was no longer blocked, the enthusiasm of the masses seemed to be hot, and the people behind were probably coming up enthusiastically. If the trouble was not good, they could remove the platform and some stampede would happen.
"Everyone, everyone, I empathize with your patriotism, but today it is agreed that many of our merchants gather to raise funds, and they have no intention of letting everyone pay for it. After all, Gaochang's incident this time has nothing to do with you.
So I can only apologize. Please forgive me and do not let me be embarrassed."
As soon as Du Shaoqing finished shouting, someone stood up and shouted: "No, why does it have nothing to do with me? My brother was detained..."
"We are all people of the Tang Dynasty, and we are connected by blood, this is the relationship..."
...
It was over, Du Shaoqing felt like he had stabbed a hornet's nest, and it was not easy to end. Unexpectedly, the people of this era were so simple and simple, and almost everyone was loyal and righteous, but he was a villain in vain.
At this moment, the head of the Ministry of Revenue took the abacus and finished the final data, secretly praising the abacus that Du Fu Ma's invention was easy to use. In less than a quarter of an hour, the statistics of hundreds of people were settled.
Liu Xian made up twice and after confirming that, his face was a little unpleasant.
He stood up and walked to Du Shaoqing, and took the initiative to reach out and press down on everyone again. When everyone was quiet, he handed the document in his hand to Du Shaoqing.
When Du Shaoqing saw it, he felt that his eyes were blurry and looked at Liu Xian in disbelief.
The other party nodded, and Du Shaoqing suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and then handed the result back to Liu Xian, "You'd better announce it to everyone."
Liu Xian smiled bitterly, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Today, major merchants in Chang'an gathered in the Qujiangchi Lake to fight against Gaochang in the northwest. The total amount of donations raised is: 325,100 coins!"
Wow...
It wasn't the people cheering now, but the collective boiling.
Thirty-two thousand coins? God, if you pile them all up, you will have a mountain.
To be honest, Du Shaoqing was stunned. He thought it was all a bunch of iron roosters and no one was willing to pay, so he prepared a few responsibilities, and his daughter cooperated with Wu Zhao to play a double act.
Now it seems that I am thinking too much. The good character of the ancients is much purer than that of later generations. It seems that the ancient moral inheritance has become increasingly lacking in later generations.
Du Shaoqing smiled bitterly and stepped forward and said, "Everyone, what's the situation? This is the situation. I wanted to do my best to help the soldiers on the expedition. Now it seems that with our actions, the war in the northwest should be stable.
What the people want, it seems that Gaochang is dead."
The people around him laughed at each other.
After bowing to everyone, Du Shaoqing smiled and said, "It was originally expected that a war would cost 200,000 yuan, but now we donate 320,000 yuan.
So I want to explain to all the enthusiastic people first. If you don’t have to raise money, you will not be able to die twice. So please forgive me and don’t make it difficult for Du and the two leaders to do it.”
Everyone laughed and stopped persevering.
Then Du Shaoqing asked at the businessman below: "Everyone, the current situation is that it seems that a lot of extra money is spent. What should I do? Even if the army goes to the expedition and spends 300,000 yuan per million to the rich, there is still a lot. How to deal with it?"
Several big businessmen looked at each other, and no one seemed to be willing to show this. So Zheng Da said loudly: "If you take it out, there is no reason to ask for it back. If there are more, there will be more. As long as it is spent on the frontline soldiers, if a certain family has no objection, the prince-consort can make his own ideas."
Everyone agreed.
"Okay, since this is the case, we will be in power and make decisions without authorization. Apart from all the expenses of the army's expedition, the remaining balance will be distributed equally to all the soldiers who went to expedition according to the head. No matter how much it is, it will be considered that we will give them military pay for thousands of miles away."
At this time of the gathering, it seemed that it was almost done. Zheng Da and others stood up, "Monma Du, will we deliver the money to the Ministry of Revenue?"
"Next to the Zhuque Gate of the Imperial City tomorrow, I will go to the registration and bookmark with two officials, waiting for you to witness this grand event by the people."
"Okay, then I'll leave outside the Zhuque Gate tomorrow, so I'll say goodbye." Everyone stood up and wanted to leave.
Du Shaoqing quickly stopped him and shouted, "Everyone, you're not finished yet."
Not finished yet? Everyone thought, we have all generously donated a lot of money, why are we still not finished yet? Do we really want to eat our big family?
"Everyone, at the beginning of the gathering, Du said in the invitation. I have business opportunities to discuss together. I have raised funds and have not yet discussed the business opportunity." Du Shaoqing explained with a smile.
Everyone was caught off guard by Du Shaoqing's sudden move. A group of old men shook their heads. This Du Prince Consort was so stupid that no one could guess what he was going to do.
So everyone became interested and sat down in their seats again, waiting for Du Shaoqing's speech.
"I don't know what the so-called business opportunity of the prince-consort is, so please tell me." Someone is already impatient.
At this time, Du Shaoqing shook his head and said, "You have misunderstood. Everyone is a businessman. Naturally, he knows that business opportunities are secrets, so how can you leak them at will?"
"This... the prince consort is spending time with us?"
“Hahaha, no!
What I mean is that this major business opportunity will not be disclosed to irrelevant people, so we need to discuss it in detail in another place," Du Shaoqing said.
"Oh? You were invited by you. I don't know who is unrelated to you.
These people are also here to testify, are they?" someone asked.
Du Shaoqing bowed to the people and said, "Everyone, today's gathering is over here. Thank you for your support and witness. Let's part."
First, Du Shaoqing turned his head and said to the merchants who were sitting down: "This business opportunity is Du's thanks to the merchants who extended a helping hand to donate gold and silver.
So it's only related to the merchants who paid for it, and I'm sorry for other people who don't donate."
you……
The shopkeeper of Cui's family in Qinghe instantly got up furious and pointed at Du Shaoqing and was about to have an attack.
But Du Shaoqing looked at the other party disdainfully. His eyes were very obvious. Are you surprised? Are you surprised?
Seeing this scene, many small businesses were very grateful. Fortunately, this trip did not come in vain. The dozens of coins of silver were not released in vain. It is true that people rumored that Du Fu Ma’s family was the God of Wealth.
"Let's go, everyone, I'll go to Du's mansion. I've prepared a delicious banquet for a long time. We've been working hard for half a day. We'll have a chat while eating. This time it's a big business opportunity. I believe everyone will be interested." Du Shaoqing said with a big smile.
Seeing those little businessmen who had only made dozens of taxes of money and were qualified to listen to the secrets of business opportunities, the shopkeeper Cui was even more angry and shouted: "Du Shaoqing, how dare you deliberately humiliate me, Qinghe Cui?"
"Can you represent the Cui family in Qinghe?" Du Shaoqing turned his head and asked jokingly.
One sentence made Manager Cui stunned. This was so familiar!
"Business opportunities can only be shared with donors, because even if we are businessmen, we should be righteous before profit. All donors have a list here.
We only ask for the list of people. There are more people in the world who are not on the list, but no one says that we are humiliating others." Du Shaoqing said disdainfully.
You... I can't bear it anymore when you were ridiculed like this. What do you do with me in the world? I only know that I seem to be the only one among the people who are not on the list. Isn't this a humiliation?
"Wait, who said that I, Cui's family in Qinghe, is not registered? My nephew Cui Hao donated 1,000 yuan to the family, so I am qualified to share what you call business opportunities."
Shameless! Shameless!
Everyone cursed in their hearts that this guy is also a top-notch.
Everyone from the five surnames and Qi Wang sighed in their hearts. Today, Cui from Qinghe had completely lost all his face. Why did he find such a person to accompany Du Shaoqing as an opponent? Isn’t this asking for death?
Du Shaoqing signaled to the director Liu around him to read the list. The director Liu Xian opened the book and said loudly: "Young Master Cui Hao, a Cui family in Qinghe, donated 1,000 yuan in personal donations."
"Did you hear it? Cui Hao's donation represents him, Cui Hao, and does not represent the Cui family in Qinghe."
I……
Everyone looked at the ugly appearance of the shopkeeper Cui. At this time, Zhenzhen verified that the debt in June was paid quickly!
Before, he pressed forward step by step and refused to let Cui Hao represent the Cui family in Qinghe. Now, it seems that he has suffered a bad consequences in less than an hour.
"Okay, okay... Du Shaoqing, you are amazing!" After saying that, the shopkeeper Cui left.
Du Shaoqing looked at Cui Hao's desire to speak but stopped and announced with a smile: "Some people on the list are all invited, so Cui Hao, the Cui family of Qinghe, is qualified to attend."
This... Cui Hao looked at his master, then looked at the shopkeeper who left his house angrily, and finally sighed and said nothing.
In Cui Hao's mind, he thought of giving up the quota to shopkeeper Cui in order to save the face of the Cui family. After all, the brothers are trapped in the wall and defending against their insults! This was learned from childhood.
But obviously I didn't expect that the man walked so fast. If I think about it carefully, I might not have accepted this gift, so I just let it go.
Xiao Xuanxuan, who was held by Wu Zhao, asked curiously: "Dad, can anyone on the list really attend the banquet? What about me and what about me?"
Everyone was amused by the little princess's repeated questions. Master Liu Xian opened the book and said loudly: "Princess Xuanyang Du Xuanxuan, I personally donated 10,000 yuan."
Du Shaoqing smiled and said, "Did you hear it? You have your name, so you can also follow me. You kid, you have to ask if you have your seat at our own house. It's really..."
"That different dad, this time I am the same as Brother Cui Hao, and I have a seat! I can't treat me as a child!
That's great, haha, then I can have a good meal." The girl jumped up excitedly.
Wu Zhao smiled and said, "You are just a little greedy cat."
Then Du Shaoqing took everyone to his Earl's Mansion with carriages and horses. Sanhu and others had already arranged for a banquet here. It was not a small project to invite more than 100 people at a time, so Sanhu and others had been busy all morning.
When I got home, the dishes had just been served. Du Shaoqing smiled and asked everyone to go to the table first. He must have been hungry at this time.
"Mr. Du, everyone is full of appetites due to your business opportunity, so how can you still have the heart to eat with peace of mind?"
Du Shaoqing quipped, "This is a delicacy that my chef has carefully prepared. The best restaurants in Chang'an City may not be able to eat. Don't follow me and be frugal.
Let’s have a meal first and then discuss it, because I’m afraid that after I’ll talk, you will lose the mood to eat.
It’s better to fill your stomach first, so as not to make people say that I, Du Shaoqing, are not well-received. Please come forward and give me some money to work, and I can’t even eat.”
Everyone laughed, some were indeed hungry, and several big businessmen with better concentration took the lead, and everyone started eating. Not to mention, few people could withstand the delicious food of Du Shaoqing's family, and almost all the meals were praised.
After almost everyone had eaten, they took everyone to the prepared yard. More than a hundred people sat down again, with a small coffee table and a cup of tea after meals on hand.
Chapter completed!
