891, the fall of the Zhou family in the East
for the same rich merchants, the nature of local and foreign households in Beijing is quite different.
If they were originally local people, the industry could be accumulated and maintained even if it was not painful or itchy.
But if she remembers correctly, Yan zisong only recently entered the capital city and just bought a nameless house at a high price. Now he has opened so many shops in Chang'an Street. It can only be said that he is very rich.
Think, Gu Qianxue do not want to let go of this fat.
"Since Yan's shop has more than 90 shops in Chang'an Street, it is reasonable to say that if you take a few steps, you should take a carriage?"
Yan zisong hastily explained, "it's true that there's one in a few steps. The problem is that the cosmetics store is a little bit far away. The princess is golden, and I'm afraid the princess's feet are tired."
Qian Xue knew, "thank you for your concern, but I'm not so delicate. Go with me." By the way, see if Yan zisong is bragging.
"It's a great honor." Yan zisong is the most handsome smile.
Yan zisong is followed by four highly skilled bodyguards, Gu Qianxue is with the first smoke, the coachman drives the carriage to follow far away, and a few people walk slowly along Chang'an Street.
Qian Xue was shocked. As Yan zisong said, there were one or two shops with "Yan" in every few tens of meters along the way, saying that it was the symbol of Yan's house.
It's terrible for a foreign merchant to buy so many shops in a moment.
"Mr. Yan, I don't know one thing." Qian Xue asked.
"You may ask me, I know everything and say everything." Yan zisong replied.
"Yan's shop has such financial resources, why didn't they enter the capital before? Even if the commercial territory is expanded to the capital, why should there be such a large sum of money and open so many shops at the same time, is it not afraid to pay for it? " Gu Qianxue is so outspoken that he is too lazy to say polite words.
Yan zisong said with a smile, "the Yan family grew up in Yangchuan City, and later its influence has been in the western region. The princess can not understand the situation of Nanyue without doing business. Nanyue is famous for its commerce, but it is divided into four regions, Southeast and northwest. Four regions form four families with different strength. They guard against each other and defend their positions. Until the chaos in Guandong City, this deadlock is broken."
"Kanto city?" Qian Xue was surprised, "what does this have to do with Kanto city?"
"Because Kanto city used to be the base camp of the Zhou family Ah, for some reason, they joined a certain force and were implicated in the end, "Yan zisong didn't explain, but his look showed a trace of disdain." when Kanto city was in turmoil, the Zhou family was also impacted. Then the Dong family in the South took the lead, and then the valley family in the North took the opportunity to make a profit. Our Yan family has always been honest and responsible, but in business, we can't see others taking advantage of it They also made a move and won all the Zhoujia industries in Beijing. "
Seeing the smoke of gunpowder, she still felt frightened.
Whether modern or ancient, there is no real paradise, peace and prosperity!
There are only competition and annexation, plunder and struggle.
But from Yan zisong's words, Gu Qianxue faintly realized that if the four commercial families in the southeast and Northwest were in opposition, the capital would be occupied by the Zhou family in the East.
In other words, the Zhou family was involved in a certain force in the capital. Because of the turbulence of this force, the Zhou family was also implicated.
It can be speculated that the case of Kanto city is not out of thin air.
But who is that force?
Prince? be on the cards! Prince Pei Xiang broke up because of Zhao's army, and then lost the emperor's trust.
Prime Minister Pei? It's also possible! Xue Xufeng deceives the superior and the inferior, and Pei Xiang offends the crown prince and the emperor at the same time.
Or
Gu Qianxue suddenly thought of the Ying family represented by Ying Fei.
Yingjia was secretly cultivated by the emperor. The most representative is that all the empresses, including the queen, have only one son, while Yingfei has three.
When the second prince returns to the capital, he will never return empty handed. Ying Fei is not mad. What did the second prince do? Can Zhou family be the second prince's handwriting?
Gu Qianxue only felt that the world was a little complicated, which made her think of brain pain.
She's not really a politician.
"Princess?" Yan zisong gently reminded, "is not tired, I see you look a little pale."
Yan zisong still has a sentence in his heart - but it is more beautiful, with a kind of beauty of protection. He would like to rub it into his arms to comfort him.
Gu Qianxue shook his head. "I'm not tired. I just think of some past events. Mr. Yan, tell me honestly that the power of the four big families in the past has been broken. Is the Yan family the most powerful among the three commercial families?"
Yan zisong's eyes flashed with pride, but his face was still hypocritical and modest. "The princess looked up at the Yan family. In fact, the three forces wanted to be, but our Yan family was slightly better."
Although Yan zisong said so, Gu Qianxue has got the answer.
Later, Gu Qianxue put aside all his thoughts, no longer thinking about what Zhou family, what second prince, what should be the family prince, just concentrate on his own career.After all, money is the real thing. Without it, the children in the nursery will be hungry.
Every time I pass by a Yan shop, Gu Qianxue has to go in and have a look at the furnishings, the layout, the goods sold, the location of each kind of goods, etc.
Yan zisong was extremely intelligent. Almost instantly he understood Gu Qianxue's interest. When he met the closed shop of Yan's family, he ordered people to knock on the door and let Princess Qianxue go in and have a good time.
Later, as long as the shops with scale and characteristics are not closed yet, Gu Qianxue also wants to go in and have a look.
Yan zisong's white jade cheek has been with a faint smile, walking behind it, and explaining it by the way.
Chang'an Road, Yan family has five cosmetics shop, finally Gu Qianxue all go in to check.
Although Yan zisong is good at business, she doesn't know about cosmetics. She just tells the shopkeeper secretly that as long as the princess tries or pays attention to the cosmetics, she will find new packages and send them to Gu Shangshu's house together.
This matter, Gu Qianxue to the next day to know, only about Yan zisong this guy is really smart, this is later.
When all shops are finished, Gu Qianxue is really tired!
Although Yan zisong didn't say anything, he was also supporting.
"Haven't you had dinner yet, princess?" Yan zisong asked, "if the princess appreciates her face, can I be allowed to do the eastern banquet for the princess? I still remember that I owe the princess a meal. "
Gu Qianxue also did not refuse, "OK, let's go."
Yan zisong was a little surprised, but secretly pleased.
A group of people got on the carriage, rode on the horse, and came to the famous Baizhen tower in the capital.
When the first smoke helped Gu Qianxue to get on the bus, the latter suddenly turned around and lowered his voice and said, "don't worry about Chu Yan. When you go back to the house, I'll tell you my plan."
First smoke a Leng, the bottom of the heart is warm, "Princess rest assured, the maid will always support the princess."
