Chapter 10305: Get a lucky break
Vision City.
"Prefect Han Xiezi is actually a businessman. He is quite reputable in business. We merchants have all dealt with him."
Liang Qisheng took a deep breath of the flue.
He is a hidden guard disguised as a businessman, but after so many years of working, his identity as a businessman has become his job.
"A businessman is good, as long as he is not the so-called loyal minister who is so brainless."
Miqi likes to deal with businessmen. This time she came to Vision City just to touch Han Xiezi's end.
Vision City and Longquan City, one on the left and one on the right, are the gates of Yilong City.
In fact, as long as you win one, Yilong City is basically on your lips, it just depends on when you can eat it.
War is an ever-changing thing with many unpredictable factors. Therefore, before every use of troops, one must be cautious and not take excessive risks.
Zhang Tianyi and Yun Ying led two teams out of Loushanguan respectively. They were deployed near Yuanjing City, supporting and cooperating with Mi Qi when necessary to deal with unexpected needs.
"We entered Vision City. We will hand over the goods first and then go to our store."
Liang Qisheng said.
Arrived at the gate of the city, Mi Qi looked at the endless crowd and was slightly shocked.
"Is this place so lax? The city gate is wide open, aren't you afraid that the enemy will take the opportunity to sneak in!"
Mickey said.
"It was closed for a few days a while ago, and it has been opened again. Since he dares to open it, he is not afraid of the enemy sneaking in." Liang Qisheng smiled slightly.
Miqi also had a preliminary understanding of Han Xiezi.
This man seems to be completely ruined.
As for why he wanted to mess it up... it still depends on the follow-up investigation.
Liang Qisheng took out the entry and exit certificate and paid some city entry fees. The entire convoy entered the city easily without being carefully inspected.
"Where are we going to hand over the goods?" Mickey touched his hand a few times in the secret compartment of the car board, took out a blunderbuss and a dagger, and hung them on his body.
The fire blunderbuss and the dagger are wrapped in cloth and camouflaged. They look like ordinary pendants. As long as they are not inspected closely, they cannot be seen clearly from a distance.
But Mickey didn't think anyone would come to check personally...
When entering the city gate, none of the soldiers came to check, and after entering the city, there would be no more.
"Go to Yuanqing Village." Liang Qisheng took a puff of smoke. He was quite addicted to cigarettes and smoked many cigarettes along the way.
“This name is quite festive.” The corners of Mickey’s lips rose.
"Of course, for those in our line of business, it is necessary to get a good fortune. Not to mention the name of this firm, even many daily affairs are based on an auspicious day."
“Those who run a business, no matter whether you believe it or not, you must follow it. Do it.”
“Not to mention, some things are very evil. It is said that many of those who have no taboos have their families destroyed for no apparent reason. Perhaps it is due to bad feng shui or some evil worship. It is better not to have it. Believe it or not.”
Liang Qisheng smiled.
“Yes, it’s good to get some luck.”
Mickey nodded.
She could see that Liang Qisheng was really particular about this. Although Liang Qisheng is her subordinate and is also a hidden guard, she respects her subordinates' external profession, which is also respect for people.
"The location of Yuanqingzhuang is in a prime location. This place is quite prosperous."
Sitting in the carriage and looking at the scenery along the way, Mickey had to admit that this Yuanjing City is indeed a It is a commercial city with a very strong commercial atmosphere. There are shops everywhere along the road, including various clothing stores, restaurants, jewelry stores, grocery stores... almost everything you need, and there is even a dedicated bookstore, and there is more than one.
“After Yuanqingzhuang took the groceries we transported, many of them were distributed to other stores. They only sell high-quality products and do not sell ordinary items directly to the outside world.” Liang Qisheng said.
“It seems that Han Xiezi plays a very measured role in business. He knows how to share profits, and there is endless money to be made. There is too much resentment in eating alone, so it is better to dump some ordinary goods to others. This way other small businesses can make a living, and Yuan Qingzhuang still gets the majority of the profits."
Mi Qi said.
"Little sister, have you also gone through business?"
Liang Qisheng was slightly surprised.
He never thought that Mickey had such a deep understanding of business.
“I did it for a while, but later I found that I didn’t like doing business very much, so I gave up.”
Miqi had two ways to go, both of which were arranged for her by Yang Ruoqing. .
One path is mainly about business, and the other is mainly about martial arts. She tried both paths, and then found that she still preferred martial arts, and the path of martial arts was the hidden guard.
"Doing business is still very interesting. If you want to make money, you have to do business. Even in my dynasty, businessmen have always been unable to catch the eyes of scholars. If the descendants of businessmen want to make a difference in the imperial examination, they are better than others. It’s more difficult.” Liang Qisheng sighed.
“This is not a problem of our dynasty, but it has been like this for thousands of years. Officials are very wary of merchants. This is still Daqi. If in the previous dynasty and the Southern Dynasty, the descendants of merchants were not allowed to participate. The imperial examination... At least officially, there is no such rule. Anyone who has the ability can take the exam."
Mi Qi said calmly.
Discrimination against the sons of merchants is generally invisible. For example, after passing the Jinshi examination, the official positions awarded in the court selection will definitely be biased, and those important ministers in the three provinces and six ministries will basically not be merchants. Descendants.
"Yes, I am good enough to the businessman. I have to praise this. I am satisfied."
Liang Qisheng smiled.
What he said was the truth, but not every businessman understood it that way. Especially after those businessmen saw the status of merchants in the Western Yajili Kingdom, their dissatisfaction with the imperial court grew day by day.
"Take your time. Some concepts are formed by many generations. Changing them is not something that can be accomplished in a day. Today's saints are determined to change, but it still takes time." Mickey said.
"I believe there will be changes sooner or later. We are making more and more progress." Liang Qisheng said.
In fact, Mickey had another point of view in mind.
That is, the imperial court’s restrictions on businessmen may not be wrong.
If there are no restrictions, businessmen will be extremely greedy. As long as they have enough chips, they will even sell the rope to hang themselves. Very few of them have a sense of social responsibility, and everything is based on profit.
The carriage gradually approached, and Mi Qi soon saw Yuan Qingzhuang.
Yuanqingzhuang is indeed extraordinary. Judging from the appearance, it is majestic and upscale.
But it is not vulgar, but appears to be cultural.
There are two large stone lions placed at the door. The door is bright and bright. There are not many people coming and going, but judging from their clothes, they are all rich people in the city.
Liang Qisheng was taken to the backyard by a steward of Yuanqing Village, where many carriages were already parked.
"Old Liang, what good things have you brought this time?" the steward said with a smile on his face.
