Datang Longya

Chapter 282

As long as he is in business, he will encounter many nasty things. Lao Yuan thinks he is not a good person, and it is his nature to be penny-pinching. If he does not use this method, then he will be the one who will be pushed out of Chang'an.

But when it came to "hurting others with the foundation", Lao Yuan seemed to have figured out something, and looked at Leng Feng in shock.

Is it?

Seeing Lao Yuan's expression, Leng Feng knew that he understood, and smiled slightly: "Old Yuan, do you think we can handle them?"

The old man said solemnly: "Our Tianxialou made enough profit last year, so far this year we haven't had too much expenditure, but if you hurt someone with your own money, it depends on whether you can afford it."

Just do it if you can!

Leng Feng nodded: "Although I don't quite understand the doorway inside, but according to the literal meaning, hurting others with the base means that both parties lose money, and the consumer, oh, means that the person who buys something benefits. If this is the case, we won't be too distressed. .

Build it!Can be made!For those that are not in the warehouse in Tianxialou's account books, you can take them with you. If they are not enough, you can ask Lao Li for them! "

"All... all to the old slave?"

The old man was taken aback!
Tianxialou is the "boss" of Leng Feng's business, and the profits from all businesses are collected in Tianxialou and then transferred to Leng Feng.Because Tianxialou has to invest money in charity halls from time to time, and Tianxialou is responsible for the distribution of workers' wages in various industries, so after Tianxialou has submitted most of its profits to Lengfu, it has to keep a part of the money for emergencies.

In the first year, Leng Feng threw 30 guan to Lao Yuan, but in the second year, Leng Feng was not in Chang'an, and after discussing with Lao Yuan, Lao Li left 100 million guan to Tianxialou!
100 million guan!This is a number that even Emperor Li Shimin would be envious of!

Now Leng Feng taught him the old man to "spend" the 100 million coins, and even declared that it was not enough to ask the Leng Mansion...

Even though Lao Yuan had seen big scenes before, he was still a little numb at this moment.

It's Ma Claw~ As the literal meaning is, his palms are itching now, if he squanders the 100 million, then he will definitely enter the history books as a "prodigal" attribute.

"What's wrong? No confidence?"

Hearing Leng Feng calling him, Lao Yuan licked his dry lips: "Master, Wan Guan! Are you so relieved to leave it to this old slave?"

Leng Feng nodded: "I can still trust you, old man. Besides, I really don't know how to hurt others with my own self, so I can only leave it to you."

Lao Yuan's ears automatically ignored the second half of Leng Feng's words. For him, "Take 100 million coins for use", nothing makes him feel more "useful" than this.

But………

Lao Yuan jumped off the cart, cupped his hands to Leng Feng and said, "Boss, I, Lao Yuan, was born in a dilapidated merchant's family. I struggled half my life before I found a family I could rely on. Yuan Chang was not talented, so I begged the family to accept me. I am a vassal, from now on I will be loyal to the master, and I will never regret after nine deaths, if there is a repetition, I will definitely be hit by five thunders in Yuanchang, and my descendants will die!"

After speaking, Lao Yuan scratched his arm with his nails, waiting for Leng Feng's reply.

When a retainer recognizes the master, he joins a family and becomes a vassal.This is more thorough than courtiers recognizing the monarch. Courtiers can still "retire", but retainers have to dedicate themselves to the patriarch until their death.

But relatively speaking, there are rewards as well as sacrifices. The status of retainers in a big family is equivalent to the "elders" in the sect, and they have great power. It is already a power that is not available to non-retainers.

Retainers are not taken by the master's family on their own initiative, those who take the initiative are called subordinates, only when someone believes that he is valuable and the master's family who is about to be vassalized is worthy of vassalization, he will take the initiative to be a retainer, and the master's family thinks it is OK after consideration. Can earn a retainer.

Leng Feng now has a retainer, and that is Lao Li. For Lao Yuan, it is impossible for Leng Feng to say that he is not "greedy", but the rules are there, and he can only wait for Lao Yuan to bring it up.

Today, on the road in the outskirts of Chang'an, Lao Yuan finally decided to recognize the patriarch, which made Leng Feng overjoyed!
Without hesitation, he rolled up his sleeves and cut his arm with the blade hidden on the side of the boot. The location of the knife was very particular. Although there was blood, it did not leave a scar.Leng Feng still felt that leaving scars on his body was a shame due to the habits brought about by later generations.

He fitted his cut with the cut on the old man's arm.This ceremony is called "Rong Ming", which means that Lao Yuan promises that he can die for Leng Feng, the master, at any time in the future.

After the posting and the ceremony were completed, Lao Yuan finally let go of his hanging heart.Having been in Chang'an for many years, he is used to the dark side of Chang'an's rich and powerful families. Many people like to let the retainers and generals do dark things and take the blame, so the old man will not mistakenly identify the patriarch.

Leng Feng, the owner, fits the old Yuan's selection criteria. He used to be brazen enough to be in charge of running Tianxialou, but now he has to fight a "commercial war" for the owner with 100 million coins. Lao Yuan feels that it is better to recognize the owner.

In this way, even if he loses the business war, he doesn't have to bear the psychological burden. The retainer and the head of the family are a family, and there is a relationship in which one prospers and the other loses. How can a family be punished for messing things up?

The two people who got their long-cherished wish couldn't help laughing, and even Long Ying, who was driving the car with an expressionless face, also showed a smile.

After staying in the palace for a long time, he also understands the existence of retainers. A Patriarch with retainers and a Patriarch without retainers are two different positions. Only a Patriarch with retainers can prove his own strength.

"Let's do it well, all the family property is in your hands, if you lose less, we will win big, if you lose all the family property, you old man will go to beg for food by yourself, I am the Duke of Jin, and I can't afford to lose this man. "

The old Yuan laughed loudly: "Why do you need to beg for food? As long as the owner sells the old slave to the market, he can still exchange for one or two meals."

After Lao Yuan became a retainer, he was no longer so cautious when talking to Leng Feng, but he and Lao Li had the same virtue, and still liked to call themselves "Old Slave". It stands to reason that he should change his name at this time, but it seems that he still doesn't plan to change it. .

Leng Feng touched Taxue who came over with his backhand. This stupid horse sneaked out from Qinling at some point and found his master. It seems that animals like horses have a really keen sense of smell, presumably Ashina That day, Yi relied on her own white horse to chase all the way to Leng Mansion.

He said to Long Ying: "Just send me here. You go back and tell the emperor to start preparing for the locust plague. Next, I will hide at home and become a nerd. This is also acting for him."

Long Ying nodded, broke the shaft of the flatbed cart with two kicks, and rode away on the barebacked horse.

The old Yuan bowed his hands to Leng Feng: "Patriarch, this old slave has also returned to Tianxialou. If you use the method of 'injury with the original' to deal with the Wang family, you will start with coal."
