Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 2369 bear the crime of request

  Maybe some people think they are the smartest one in a period of time. Because what you do can be hidden, you can not be known, you can deceive other people.

   It’s just that in fact, nothing can be concealed indefinitely, and it’s impossible not to let others know about everything. The difference is whether to say it or not.

   A secret is no longer a secret when it is spoken.

The responsibilities of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce are still relatively vague at the moment. Although there are still some frameworks in general, everyone knows that this framework is very extensive, and there are still many ambiguities in some details, which gives a lot of maneuverability. Space.

For businessmen, when they have enough profits, they can even ignore the national laws, just like the Shanxi merchants who have made great contributions to our Qing Dynasty in history, they can continue to get riches after betraying the country. Praise and praise. As a result, many businessmen in later generations preached that goods have no borders and technology has no borders. In fact, everyone knows what is going on.

The new Dahan Chamber of Commerce moved out of the original small courtyard in the city. The new site is located in the north of Wuji outside the east gate of Chang'an City. It covers an area of ​​about 20 acres. Inside the wing room, the lights are brightly lit almost day and night, and businessmen are negotiating and bargaining at all times.

To a certain extent, the Dahan Chamber of Commerce is equivalent to a platform for hussars to endorse. Merchants from all over the world can find the products they need without worrying about the vast amount of business. They only need to browse and check the products in the Dahan Chamber of Commerce. If you are satisfied and have the intention to make a deal, you can go to the Dahan Chamber of Commerce, or in the lobby, or rent a small room, and then sign a contract between the two parties. contract, delivery of money and goods.

Although you have to pay a certain fee based on the total number of transactions, compared to the previous traditional transaction mode, it is much more convenient. Not only are the goods guaranteed, but the money is also safe. Don't worry. Therefore, shortly after the establishment of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce, the amount of funds absorbed by such a platform is quite huge...

   What happened because of this is naturally very clear. Money touches people's hearts. As for those who say that they are not interested in money, the more they can only be left with hehehe.

So today, in the new site of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce, all the scenes that should have been lively are gone, all irrelevant merchants have been cleared, more than a dozen guards guard the closed gate, and behind the gate, there are There were some indistinct noisy sounds, like waving sticks, mixed with howling human voices. The sounds were so weird that many wandering businessmen raised their ears and listened as if nothing had happened.

  In the front yard of the main hall of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce, there was a row of more than a dozen subordinates who were bound behind their backs and pressed down on the ground, and some strong soldiers were whipping their shoulders with sticks. The faces of those who were tortured by the stick were distorted, and some could still bear it with gritted teeth, while others couldn't help crying and begging for mercy.

  In the official office, Cui Hou was sitting upright with a gloomy face, his brows were furrowed, and his face was covered with dark clouds, as if containing a violent storm. At the bottom is a group of officials, big and small, and shopkeepers in the Dahan Chamber of Commerce. They all lowered their heads and chests, and kept silent, especially the continuous sound of torture in the front porch, which made people sweat profusely from nervousness.

  『It’s only been a few days that I haven’t asked about the affairs of the meeting, and you are so neglected and neglected to such an extent? ! ”Cui Hou couldn’t help but slapped the table case, shaking the document shelf on the table case and almost jumping off, “My lord treats XX kindly, so XX also treats everyone kindly!” However, this is how you repay Yu Mou, and repay the kindness of the lord? ! The lord's kindness and salary support, is to cultivate you and other waste insects? ! 』

  Hearing Cui Hou's angry voice, all the people in the hall were shocked and trembled. They were sitting with their heads down, not daring to make a sound.

  The reason why Cui Hou was so furious was because he was called away by General Hussars, and Zhang Shi threw a lot of impeachment on his face in front of the other leaders of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce!

   Zhang Shi is a dog!

  Mad Dog!

   But the problem is that this mad dog was raised by Hussar General Fei Qian!

  What can Cui Hou do?

  Some time ago, because Cui Hou went to the Northland, he took a leave of absence. He didn't stay in the Dahan Chamber of Commerce, so naturally he didn't have time to ask about the affairs of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce. Now that a lot of skin was shaved openly in front of General Hussars, it was inevitable that he would be annoyed. After leaving the General Hussars' mansion, he immediately rushed to the Dahan Chamber of Commerce to check the affairs, and then impeached those who were impeached when they found that the affairs were deserted. , even more serious!

   There is no way to vent the resentment in his heart, how could Cui Hou spare these small officials who committed crimes lightly, he vented his anger unreservedly, and beat these people to death.

  Cui Hou and Hussar General, the friendship between the two can be said to have begun since the end of Pingmo, but this does not mean that Cui Hou can recklessly squander the friendship between him and Fei Qian. In a sense, Fei Qian’s willingness to call him "Brother Yongyuan" is already showing nostalgia in front of others, and if Cui Hou can’t do his own things well, then he can’t blame others...

Cui Hou is still here to punish the offender in charge of the shopkeeper. From the outer hall, several people hurried in, with pale faces, profusely sweating, and prostrated themselves in the hall: "Young one, I don't know the president today. Inspection..."

  『Drag on! Punish first and ask later! 』Cui Hou slapped the table and shouted angrily.

The guards rushed up, grabbed all these undervalued people, and dragged them to the execution place. One of them was afraid of punishment, so he shouted loudly: "Young one, the young one did not intend to be absent from work...Nai Zunfu Your Majesty is hosting a banquet today...』

"shut up! Hearing this shout, Cui Hou's face became even more ugly, "Come on!" First slap thirty! Drag it down and fight! 』

After the guards dragged those people out, Cui Hou gasped for a few times before he calmed down a bit. He stood up, looked around the hall with angry eyes, and said in a deep voice, "It's my lord's honor. If you can't be loyal and hardworking, it's a big crime! Those who dare to indulge themselves because of personal affection, don't blame me for not thinking of affection! Get out, check things out, and if there are any omissions, there will be no mercy! 』

After everyone in the hall heard the words, they responded repeatedly, and then they got up and went to their respective official buildings, pretending to work hard, even if they didn't have anything to do, they still held a book. Turning over the ledger, I was afraid that Cui Hou would turn around after a while and ask if he was busy or something...

   Cui Hou, who was alone in the hall, gasped for a while, and his expression gradually calmed down.

  『Jia Zun, A Lang is in the back compartment...』 At this moment, a servant of Cui Hou's confidant came to Cui Hou's ear and reported in a low voice.

Cui Hou took a deep breath, let out a cold snort, turned out of the middle hall, and walked through the back corridor into an inconspicuous room in the back house. A young man with a rosy face and quite drunk immediately strode up to meet him. He said in his mouth: "My lord, Cui Qi and others are at the family banquet, why was he arrested..."

"Shut up! Let me ask you, who is Cui Qi? Is it your subordinate, or the chamber of commerce official? Also, who allows you to connect with merchants in private and buy and sell supplies? ! ’ Cui Hou asked in a low voice.

  The young man is the son of Cui Hou.

  Before when the Cui family was in distress, Cui Hou had to travel around to maintain the family business. At that time, Cui Hou was full of thoughts on how to make money, how to maintain the family business from collapse, how to eat and drink tomorrow after eating and drinking today...

  When Cui Hou really started to gain a foothold and the Cui family began to develop, Cui Hou suddenly found that he and his son had separated, like strangers. He doesn't know what his son thinks, and his son doesn't care what he thinks. Then his son doesn't like to study, he just likes to chase dogs every day, fight **** and dogs...

   How fun it is to play, how important it is to be cool!

   This is going to be abolished!

Cui Hou hurriedly asked for a teacher and hired a teacher, but it was too late, his son couldn't learn at all, and fell asleep while holding a book, and became energetic when he heard that he was going to hunt. After a year, the teachers and teachers changed five or six times, but the books were not good enough. I can't read two or three books.

   In a hurry, call.

  Beating made his son roll all over the floor, and Cui Hou burst into tears.

The midwifery conditions in the Han Dynasty were too poor. Cui Hou had already lost two concubines and two children. He bled heavily during the birth, and the little one and the big one couldn’t be saved. On the one hand, the hundred medical clinics in Chang'an are all things to come later.

What?

   Pedagogy? Let’s not talk about whether there is, even if there is, you let Cui Hou risk his life in business in the Han Dynasty, rushing during the day, and studying hard at night with pedagogy, how to teach children? Then his children only need to lie down and wait for their father to finish their pedagogy before going to study?

  Family? It’s not that the “rich second generation” was found by the poor biological parents. They bid farewell to the status of heirs with cars, houses and stores, and returned to the 18th-tier small city because of looking for children. Did your parents have a falling out...

  Cui Hou himself is getting older. Although he still wants to have a child in recent years, he just can’t bear it. What a pity...

  Under such circumstances, a thousand acres of fertile land with only one seedling can only be used as a comparison. It's not that Cui Hou has never thought of letting someone adopt him, but after all, this is his own blood. If he really wants to adopt a smart one, isn't this the difference between early death and late death?

   Adopting a fool, isn't that even worse than it is now?

Sometimes Cui Hou would feel sad when he was alone at night. He worked so hard. When he was in distress, he even led a caravan to travel thousands of miles. I tried my best to manage the checkpoint cities along the way, and every time I was struggling on the edge of life and death, only then did I have the current family business and the wealth in front of me, but...

   But what's the use?

  And this son of my family still eats and drinks, flying eagles and lackeys, and a lot of drinking and meat friends every day, he will be happy if he is coaxed, and he will throw money out if he is called brother...

  Not long after I came to Chang'an to settle down, I earned a "good reputation" of "spreading money for charity"!

   But he didn’t know how many smiling faces and sufferings his father, Cui Hou had suffered for the money he spent on a banquet now!

  Looking at his son who was still ignorant and bewildered and didn’t know what was going on, and was even hiccupping, Cui Hou couldn’t help it, so he raised his hand and slapped his son, “Nizi! Are you willing to give up only if you kill yourself as your father? 』

  The young man suddenly became sober.

   After receiving this slap, the young man felt burning pain on his face, and his alcohol dissipated a bit, and he quickly bowed his head and bowed down.

  『I ask you, why hold a banquet? ’ Cui Hou asked.

  The young man lowered his head and said: "A few days ago, when I was out hunting, I caught a deer. My friends congratulated me and said that I had good luck. I felt very happy, so I decided to hold a deer feast..."

  『Deer Appreciation Banquet…』 Cui Hou shook his hands twice, then held back, and asked again, 『Why did you come forward to contact the merchant and buy for someone else? 』

"This... is Yang Qilang's deep friendship with me, and he attracted a merchant to visit..." The young man quickly glanced at Cui Hou, swallowed his saliva, "The merchant rewarded a beautiful house in Maoling, and there were ten slaves. Yu Ming…” Then the young man also missed a part, that is, inside the mansion, there are also a few Mei Ji, these days, it’s really bubbling...

  It's a pleasure to stab someone for a while, and the relatives cry two lines.

   Probably this is what it means.

   After accepting the benefits of others, of course he has to help others to do practical things, otherwise how can he keep his reputation as Brother Changan Shuangli?

  Cui Hou held back his anger and gritted his teeth, "Then do you know what you did to him?" 』

"what? Isn't it just to help him ask for something in Curry? The young man said disapprovingly, "I also took money from him, and he paid 10% more than the market price..."

  The young man straightened his chest, as if to indicate that he would also do business. Not only did he sell the goods, but he also made more money.

  『10% more? ”Cui Houqi laughed back, “So...is there any approval? 』

  『Approval...approval? ’ The young man swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

   Cui Hou gritted his teeth and said, "What you are selling is fine armor from the public treasury, not flat armor!" Refined armor, war horse, and hundred-refined sword! Such elite equipment must be approved for sale! Without approval, it is a private sale, a death penalty! Death penalty! Do you know how the head of Ma Zhengsi died last time? That's Fei! Do you know why the second elder of the Pei family in Hedong died? ah? ! Are you going to kill our family? ! 』

  『…』The young man froze for a moment, and the rest of the alcohol seemed to dissipate, "I... I don't know... No one said... Father, you didn't say that either..."

  Cui Hou took a long breath and held it for a long time, then he couldn't hold it anymore, so he slapped him again, "I don't know? ! I don't know why you don't ask more questions? ! no one said? ! Do you think you are still a three-year-old child, waiting for others to tell you everything every day? ! I did not teach? ! What do you say when I teach you? ! Either you understand everything, or you just doze off! Now let's say I didn't say it! 』

  The young man knew he was wrong, but he still refused to admit it, "I...I just want to share my father's worries..."

  『Fen...』 Cui Hou couldn’t move anymore, he pressed his chest, panted heavily, and adjusted his breath for a long time before he finally recovered a little bit, 『Get out! Get out! Cui Da! Bet...bet this rebellious son to go back! Today... From today onwards, you will be confined to the mansion! Within a year, you can't leave the house! If there is a violation, discount your legs! 』

Cui Da is the leader of Cui Hou's guards. Hearing this, he complained and pinched the young man's arm like he was catching a chicken. Stand up and go.

  Cui Houyou was panting heavily and couldn't calm down for a long time.

  Cui Hou would naturally be pleased if his children could make good friends, but the problem is that people are divided into groups, and those who like to play basically attract those who like to play...

Coupled with a lot of drinking and meat friends, the rich is the big brother, coaxing, blindfolding, changing tricks to let Cui Houzi spend the money, eat and drink, and pack it away, who would really think about something for Cui Houzi ?

Cui Hou paid a lot of money to send his own children to the school before, thinking that the teachers at home have not been recruited, is it because there are no peers, among the many students in the school, it would be good if they learn a little bit, but the result is not only that the school The doctor had a headache, so he came to Cui Hou to return the goods, and his children were still fighting in the school palace!

  Cui Hou knows that in fact, he can’t completely blame his own children. He was run over by those people in the school, and then he can’t say enough to those people, so all he has to do is to do it.

  Obviously a pit, my child jumped into it without hesitation, and turned around and complained to his father that he didn't understand him. Could it be that he did something wrong in order to protect his family's reputation? But the problem is that at the beginning, his own children pretended to cause trouble, disturbed the classroom, ridiculed that poor people want to study, and I am a master if I have money, and then this guy stopped talking about these things.

  Of course, maybe in this guy's heart, he thinks these things are the truth. He should have been coaxed, offered, held, and paid out every day just like among those drinking and meat friends.

   Now it's a very similar pit again, and then my child jumped into it again without hesitation.

  『Do evil...』

  Cui Hou raised his head, he was afraid that if he lowered his head, he would not be able to hold back his tears.

  So at the beginning, you shouldn’t go into business, you shouldn’t make money, and then the whole family can’t eat, and you have to work in the fields every day. If you don’t work for a day, you don’t have food for a day. Is that right? So the son will be sensible? But really, his son had to go to the fields at the age of seven or eight, he had to fight the plow in his teens, and he would be as old as thirty or forty in his twenties. Is this what he wanted?

  『Come here...』 Cui Hou let out a long sigh, as if he had aged ten years in an instant, "Go get the thorns... oh... wait for someone to go to the Hussar General's mansion... to plead guilty..."
