I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 190 The Wang family wants to cooperate with the county government

"A few months ago, my father's sister was attacked by rebels in Youzhou. Thanks to General Li's troops, which defeated the rebels, and also received money from General Li, my young lady returned home smoothly. "

"I came here to repay you for saving my life."

The palace steward said respectfully, his eyes full of gratitude, it didn't look fake.

"I don't know about this."

Qin Wan'er shook her head.

Her husband was already very busy with matters on the battlefield. Qin Wan'er would not disturb her husband's expedition with unwarranted letters. All news about her husband was directly sent by people from the palace.

Naturally, Qin Wan'er would not know about these things.

"Madam doesn't know."

"But my palace will never forget the life-saving grace."

As the Wang family steward spoke, he raised the gift sheet high and even knelt down: "Madam, please be sure to replace General Li's subordinates. This is my master's death order. If you don't accept it, I will definitely not be able to escape punishment when I go back. "

"this…"

Qin Wan'er hesitated a little and looked at Zhou Fusheng.

"If you mean what you say."

"My general really saved your young lady's life. That is also the general's duty. The general will protect every citizen of the Tang Dynasty, not your young lady alone."

"You, the Wang family, don't need to do this either."

Zhou Fusheng stepped forward and pushed back the gift slip in his hand.

"General Li is indeed very righteous."

"But please don't reject my Wang family's kindness."

"The etiquette is light but the affection is heavy. These are all repayments."

"Ma'am, please accept it."

The Wang family butler held the gift list high again, looking very determined.

"Madam, do you see this?"

Zhou Fusheng was helpless and looked at Qin Waner.

"You should know the relationship between my county government and those nobles from Shandong and Hebei, right?"

Qin Wan'er suddenly spoke.

These words.

But it is full of profound meaning.

The palace steward was not surprised and immediately understood the meaning.

"The nobles of Shandong and Hebei have grudges with the county government. Everyone in Chang'an City knows that. My branch of the Wang family has cooperated with the nobles of Shandong and Hebei for many years. But after today, my Wang family will let the Chen family cut off all ties with the nobles of Shandong and Hebei. cooperate."

The palace steward said immediately.

"Is this true?"

Qin Wan'er asked.

"really."

"This is the sincerity of our Wang family."

"Not only that."

"My Wang family is willing to do business with the county government. Using our Wang family's financial resources and influence among the people, we can help the county government open Lin's Restaurant, and even directly purchase wine to sell in our Wang Family Restaurant."

"If the county government wants to do business in other areas, my Wang family will give our full assistance."

"A win-win situation for each other."

The palace steward said immediately.

“The conditions are too good.

"The Wang family, are they really risking their lives?"

Zhou Fusheng thought to himself.

Although the Wang family was targeted by the imperial court, their influence was still there, and their financial resources were unquestionable.

If they can cooperate with the Wang family, the county government can indeed earn more.

"If you are really able to do this, I can accept your thank you gift on behalf of your husband."

Qin Waner said.

"Thank you ma'am."

The palace steward immediately thanked him.

Zhou Fusheng also took the gift order with a loss.

"I'm here to give you a gift today."

"In a few days."

"My royal family will bring out the list of business cooperation with the county government and discuss it with my wife."

Deputy Butler Wan said respectfully.

"My Grandpa Zhou is responsible for the Fuzhong Restaurant and all business matters. If you want to cooperate, just contact Grandpa Zhou directly."

"As long as Grandpa Zhou nods, my husband and I can agree."

Qin Wan'er looked at Zhou Fusheng on the side and said.

"Yes."

The palace steward nodded respectfully. "Madam, the gift has been delivered. I will go back and resume my life first."

"I'll come back to visit you in a few days."

The palace steward said respectfully, and then slowly withdrew.

After he left.

Zhou Fusheng opened the gift sheet and looked at it. Although the county government now had a lot of money, he was slightly surprised by the Wang family's handiwork.

"Wan'er, this player is indeed known as the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, and this thank you gift is indeed impressive."

"Twenty thousand gold."

"Fifty thousand silver."

"Five hundred bolts of fine cloth."

"Five hundred bolts of silk."

"Various precious medicinal materials.

"There are also many jade articles..."

Zhou Fusheng was very shocked.

"Grandpa Zhou."

"Do you think the Wang family is really here to repay the favor as the butler said?"

Qin Wan'er looked thoughtful.

"From Lao Nu's point of view, repaying a favor is just a ploy. The real reason is that the Wang family may want to cut off ties with nobles from Shandong and Hebei, and find another powerful person who is valued by the emperor to cooperate."

"Since the nobles of Shandong and Hebei suffered a big loss at the hands of the young master and their titles were removed, everyone with a discerning eye knows that the nobles of Shandong and Hebei are disliked by the emperor and may be abandoned in the future."

"But my young master is a real upstart in the court. Not only has he repeatedly made great military exploits for the country, but he also saved the prince. If the prince becomes the emperor in the future, my young master will be highly regarded."

"This may be the fundamental reason why the Wang family is so generous."

"We will not hesitate to completely cut off cooperation with the nobles of Shandong and Hebei."

"Instead cooperate with our county government."

"This is fundamental."

Zhou Fusheng said.

"It seems that it is indeed a good thing."

"The nobles of Shandong and Hebei have gone too far and have repeatedly made enemies of my county government. I just want to cut off their way of making money and make them suffer."

Qin Waner said with a smile.

"Wan'er's skills are excellent. Anyway, our county government is not at a loss. Moreover, we can make more money and train more dead soldiers for the young master."

Zhou Fusheng said with a smile.

"Anyway, I'll leave the cooperation with the Wang family to you."

"Whether it's me or my husband, I believe in Grandpa Zhou unconditionally."

Qin Waner said sincerely.

"The old slave only lives for the young master and his wife."

Zhou Fusheng also said solemnly.

These few words are what he sticks to throughout his life!

……

Chang'an City.

Wangfu.

This mansion is located in the inner city. Although it is large, its location is not even as good as many of the mansions of ordinary fifth- and sixth-rank officials in the imperial court.

, This is also the reason for being a businessman.

In this capital city.

It's not just about having money, you have to have power.

"master."

"Master."

"All the gifts have been sent."

"Mrs. Li also accepted it."

The palace steward looked at the two people in front of him respectfully.

One seems to be sixty or seventy years old, and the other is about forty years old.

The former was Wang Yuanbao, who founded the Wang family and was once known as the richest man in the Tang Dynasty.

The other is Wang Yuanbao's son, Wang Rong.

They are the Wang family.

The industry ranges from salt, coal, silk, and cloth. Almost every profitable business has his Wang family involved.

However, with the stability of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin issued an imperial edict, placing the control of salt in the hands of the imperial court. The private sector was not allowed to sell salt privately and had to purchase it from the imperial court. Therefore, salt was also the key to the court's revenue, accounting for almost 50% of the court's tax revenue.

Because no matter which era, salt is the key to people's livelihood and is indispensable, even in this era, it is still coarse salt.
