I Built a Territory in Ancient Times - Chapter 159

pole. It is impossible for their Zhu family to gamble all their net worth, so although they are prepared, they are only in response to emergencies.

Now that Prime Minister Wen has also come forward, things are probably not that simple!

128 Chapter 128

At this time, one person came to Mrs. Zhu and looked at the backs of Ming Yu and Prime Minister Wen thoughtfully.

Grandpa Zhu raised his eyes and looked over, it was the old man of the Wang family, “What does the master of the Wang family think?”

The Zhu Wang family has always been relatively close, and the Ma Zhou family both stand apart and have some cooperation relations. Therefore, the four people are friendly on the surface, but in private they are competing with each other, all thinking of being one step ahead of each other, or suppressing each other.

Master Wang pondered for a while before shaking his head and said, “There’s nothing strange about this, right?”

“Strange?” Grandpa Zhu narrowed his eyes and asked calmly.

“Otherwise, why did Prime Minister Wen come?” Master Wang said his opinion directly, “Isn’t it saying that the court doesn’t care about this matter? But what can Prime Minister Wen represent if he doesn’t represent the court? I don’t think it’s easy!”

He left half of what he said, but Mrs. Zhu has already seen through it for a long time. “You’re right, no matter what, King Duan is the emperor’s youngest son. Although the court said that King Duan should be left alone and the court would not intervene in this matter, isn’t Prime Minister Wen here to support King Duan? He came Now, it has already indirectly demonstrated the emperor’s attitude.”

This matter has to be properly handled, Mr. Zhu secretly reminded himself.

Master Wang thought for a while, but fortunately he made more preparations, “Then we can only take a step by step, but I’m afraid that the Ma family will really catch up with us, and we will suffer.”

When he said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao were coming, Ma Siyong led Ma Jinyu over as soon as he finished speaking, “Old Zhu, Mr. Wang, is it good to see you for a long time?”

“Thank you for your concern, brother, and thanks to my brother’s blessing, we two poor old men can do it.” Grandpa Zhu said with a haha.

No matter how you don’t deal with it, it still has to be maintained on the surface. A few people are friendly and happy.

Master Wang nodded and said in a meaningful way, “Brother Ma made an extraordinary move. No wonder the Ma family’s family business is booming under the leadership of this brother.”

Ma Jinyu frowned when he heard it behind his father. He was still young, and he was far from learning how these old foxes were foolish.

Ma Siyong has long been used to it. With a smile on his face, he politely said: “The old man has won the prize, brother, I have no skills, I just want to make no mistakes in business transactions, and I can stabilize the Ma family. It’s like the two of you want to have a vision, You have to be bold and courageous, the grain trade at the beginning of the year made a lot of money, which really made my brother envious.”

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were held high, making it impossible to pick them wrong.

Mr. Wang was very proud to hear that. In the first game at the beginning of the year, he and the Zhu family saw the situation quickly, and cleverly seized business opportunities and hoarded them. In two or three months, I earned almost a year or two of benefits.

When other businessmen reacted later, they had already earned almost, and they stopped in time and left some leftovers for others.

It has to be said that this is his proud work. Although it is manipulated by the Zhu family, it also shows that his vision is very good. Turning your hands for the clouds and covering your hands for the rain, when I look back now, my blood is still surging.

For the praise of the Ma family, Mrs. Zhu was completely disdainful. Ma Siyong has one set in front of his face and another behind his back, which is shameless.

At the beginning of the year, the two of them, on the bright side, manipulated the price of food in the south, and they were cursed and reviled by many people for their strange hoarding. However, their Ma family reaped a lot of benefits secretly, but on the surface they pretended to be good people, giving porridge and rice. Therefore, everyone said that the Ma family is benevolent and righteous, and they are generous to the public. Come on, he gets the benefits himself, and it’s shameless to scold them for backing them.

“The matter has long since passed, and it’s not worth mentioning at all.” Mrs. Zhu was very shrewd, and his joy and anger were indistinguishable. To Ma Siyong’s words indifferently, and did not show too much emotion.

He smiled and waved his hand, then said: “Instead, the Ma family master has a unique vision. Look, even a character like Duan Wang can climb high. This is the means I can’t wait for.”

Ma Siyong smiled lightly, “Hey! This is really not my method. It’s just that the child Jinyu met King Duan at the banquet of the eldest princess, and King Duan handed it over to him, and regarded the child as a friend. Otherwise, what would King Duan be? Can I befriend you easily?”

This is heartbreaking. He knew about that banquet, and the younger generation of their Zhu family also participated. It’s just that when they came back to talk about it, they didn’t care, and they didn’t even think about making friends with people like Duan Wang.

In fact, it’s not because they are selfish. After all, King Duan is a person who is excluded from the situation. It is impossible for him to be involved in the movements of the court, and it is useless to make friends.

This allowed the Ma family to take advantage of the loophole and sent Ma Jinyu to start with Duan Wang, not only to find out about Duan Wang’s layout, but also to gain Duan Wang’s trust. Otherwise, the Ma family wouldn’t be able to make such a big move, right? Fortunately, the paper couldn’t contain the fire, and the Ma family’s big moves caught their attention. No matter what the Ma family plans to do, the two of them must be prepared.

Of course he didn’t know that there was also Ming Yu’s intentional element in the Ma family’s plan. Otherwise, with the status of Dayan’s businessman, it would be fantastic to make friends with the prince, right?

Grandpa Zhu looked at Ma Jinyu behind Ma Siyong and sighed, “The father of a tiger has no children, and the son of a man is terrifying!”

Hearing the compliment, Ma Jinyu stepped forward generously and gave a salute, “Mr. Zhu has won the award, this kid is not very talented, and he has to study hard with his elders.”

Ma Siyong’s attitude of neither being humble nor arrogant made Ma Siyong extremely satisfied. Of course, his son was his own. He was very relieved to hear that the other party praised Ma Jinyu.

“It can be seen that Brother Ma is already prepared for today’s events. At this time, aren’t you willing to reveal a little inside story?” Mrs. Zhu asked sincerely.

Ma Siyong snorted, “How can there be any inside information, I just heard those rumors.”

How could Mrs. Zhu believe what he said, he really didn’t believe that the Ma family could show all their net worth just by relying on the news. This is impossible without knowing the exact benefit. Therefore, he is more inclined to this matter. How rich are the benefits? It will make people sink the boat.

“Really?” It seemed that it was still difficult to get the real news out of the old fox’s mouth.

Ma Siyong smiled mysteriously, “Why should Mrs. Zhu be impatient? I’ve been waiting for so long, why not wait a little longer? Let’s see, won’t the bidding for Prince Duan start right away?”

Mrs. Zhu can’t, what else can you do? Can only wait.

Prime Minister Wen took his seat at the main seat. What he said was novel about the tender held by Ming Yu. This was only one of them, and he was more worried. These businessmen are cunning people, if there is no one to control the market, he is really afraid that Ming Yu will suffer.

Ming Yu understood his purpose and was grateful. He had never thought of making courtiers before. First, because of taboos, what does it look like when the prince and ministers have been in close contact with each other? Secondly, it is also because in Ming Yu’s mind, there are many sour and old-fashioned ministers in the DPRK and China, and it is very boring to deal with them, hehe, is he eating and supporting?

On the other hand, Prime Minister Wen broke Ming Yu’s stubborn opinion, and was in an unprecedented agreement with his ideological realm. The two get along more like a long-term friendship.

The two talked for a while, and Prime Minister Wen said, “I’m here just to watch this meeting. The lord doesn’t need to worry about me. What kind of regulations should be implemented, just implement them.”

Ming Yu looked up at the sky, the time was almost up, “Alright, Wen Xiang sits wide, and Ming Yu will come when he’s done.”

After he finished speaking, he instructed the servants to gather everyone to sit down and make preparations.

Ming Yu stood on the rostrum, and the people below were still whispering nervously and excitedly. Ming Yu pressed his hands down to signal everyone to be quiet, and then everyone gradually became quiet.

Ming Yu cleared his throat and raised his voice: “Today, the king invited everyone here to hold the bidding meeting of Xiqi Corridor. I think everyone has heard about it, right? Otherwise, I wouldn’t have traveled all the way to Beijing on purpose. .”

Everyone nodded, it was indeed the case, the essence of businessmen’s pursuit of profit could not be changed. If there is no interest in this bidding meeting, they will not appear here. Now they are waiting for the bylaws of the Duanwang Tendering Conference.

Seeing everyone’s reaction, Ming Yu smiled, waved his hand, and asked people to post a booklet with pictures and texts. Looking at this thing is much clearer and clearer than other people’s explanations, so that everyone can have a spectrum in their hearts.

Ming Yu continued: “The constitution of the bidding meeting that everyone cares about is written in this booklet in detail. You can read it first. If you don’t understand, you can ask it as listed, and someone will be responsible for answering it.”

He made a special trip to train a lot of people to answer questions. This saves time and effort, and it’s much easier than answering them one by one in person.

As soon as the booklet was in hand, everyone couldn’t wait to read it.

Prime Minister Wen also has a copy in his hand. He flipped through it carefully. It introduced the details of the rules of the bidding meeting in detail. Many things in it were refreshing.

Ming Yu’s bidding meeting is just a name. Compared with the real bidding meeting of later generations, it must not be completely copied. After all, the actual situation is different, and it is necessary to adapt to local conditions.

Or to put it more correctly, this is just Mingyu’s name for the bidding meeting, mainly to raise funds to raise money, at least to raise the start-up capital first, and then you can take it slowly.

It’s just money in other people’s pockets, it’s impossible to take it out willingly with just a few words from you, it doesn’t have enough benefits, and attractiveness.
