Chapter 89 89 Being tricked into coming to the capital to be a fat sheep 2
Next, Gu Hua met several family heads of Jiangzhou City in the circle of wealthy businessmen in Beijing.
Jiang Kanghui, the head of the Jiang family, was a ruthless and vicious person who had secretly fought with Gu Hua to seize the management rights of the Cao Gang.
The Chen family, Chen Jingyun and his son, have maintained a good relationship with Gu Hua for three years.
The head of the Song family, who had witnessed Gu Hua's cunning tactics in the business world and suffered several losses at her hands and then settled down; and the head of the Wan family, Wan Jingui, who was about to be surpassed by Gu Hua and the Gu family.
These people met at Yipinjuli, the first teahouse in the capital, where wealthy businessmen gathered to exchange information. Except for the friendly smiles from the Chen father and son, Gu Hua was given a gloomy look by the other people and then ignored.
Well, Gu Hua said that she has grown up and she is not a child anymore and will not fall for it if he tries to isolate her.
"Master Gu...oh...your family business has been taken away by the clan because you are a woman." Master Wan looked like a smug person, "You are no longer qualified to be called the master of the family by us."
Originally, those who had seen or heard that Gu Hua came to Beijing on a valuable pleasure boat wanted to make friends with this famous female head of a family in Jiangzhou City in recent years.
After hearing what the head of the Wan family said, he gave up the idea of making friends with her.
After all, the purpose of making friends with Gu Hua was to benefit each other, or simply to make money from her. Now her family property has been taken away by the clan because she is a woman, so breaking up with her would be a waste of time and has lost its meaning.
Wan Jingui continued to step on this woman who almost replaced him and became the new wealthy businessman of the four major families in just three years.
"Maybe you don't know, but the money for this person to come to Beijing was raised by selling his house."
"Ah... is this true?"
A wealthy businessman nearby whispered, "Some time ago, I was doing business in other cities near Jiangzhou City, and I heard that many of the Gu family's shops have closed down."
"Oh...it seems that she was kicked out of the family business, and the shops were taken over and reorganized by the family."
……
The head of the Wan family saw the wealthy businessmen who had originally walked over to chat with Gu Hua gradually dispersed away from her with a smug expression on his face. If Gu Hua hadn't minded, he would have been beaten up long ago.
Gu Hua raised his eyebrows. He was originally worried that because the pleasure boat they took when they came to the capital was too high-profile, they would be targeted by more powerful people who wanted to make money from their group of wealthy businessmen.
Now that she was belittled by the head of the Wan family, Gu Hua was not angry, but wanted to thank him loudly.
In the end, Gu Hua, who had no benefits to gain, was left aside by everyone. Only Chen Jingyun patted her on the shoulder when he passed by her, gave her a little sympathy and comfort, and then sat down and invited her to drink tea like an old friend.
Gu Hua drank his tea calmly, not minding the indifference of those wealthy businessmen towards him.
"You don't mind?"
"Let's talk business. Those people are not close to me, and there is nothing to gain from me right now. Why would they waste their time chatting with me? Not only will they not do such a thing, but I will not do it either."
"You are quite open-minded." Seeing his son coming over, the head of the Chen family also walked over with some tea, and said with admiration for Gu Hua in his eyes.
Gu Hua smiled calmly, then approached old man Chen and whispered something. Under the curious eyes of Chen Jingyun and the suspicious look of the head of the Chen family, he stood up, patted his butt and left.
Because they were sincere, Gu Hua shared the news he had received. As for whether they believed it or not, that was none of his business. Jiang Kanghui, who was sitting in the teahouse, narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Hua's back with sinister eyes. He suspected that the person who secretly robbed him of the remaining power of the Caoqing Gang three years ago was the woman who left in front of him.
But no matter how he investigated, it was Feng Biao, a man whose generations had lived on the water, who, together with a group of fisherman brothers, took action to subdue most of the Caoqing Gang forces at the docks along the way, as well as those sailors and boatmen.
Even if they didn't find out what kind of relationship she had with the organization now renamed Cao Gang, Jiang Kanghui, who was suspicious by nature, wanted to make this woman who always made him feel a little dangerous disappear.
She was able to bring the declining Gu family back to its heyday. Not to mention that the sinister Jiang Kanghui was wary of Gu Hua, there were also several wealthy businessmen in Jiangzhou who looked up to her and wanted to suppress her...
The fat piece of meat of overseas trade attracted many wealthy businessmen from Daxuan to come to the capital, and they greeted and communicated with each other to see if there were any business opportunities.
The Chen family father and son, who originally wanted to find business opportunities here, looked at each other and silently withdrew from this social gathering between wealthy businessmen after Gu Hua left.
"Dad, what did Young Master Gu say to you that made you look so heavy?"
Patriarch Chen raised his hand and rubbed his frowning brows, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
After all, the carriage they made for the street was not very soundproof, and the information that Gu Hua provided to them, whether true or false, was not suitable to be spread.
Chen Jingyun was a calm person. He lifted the curtain of the carriage and took a look at the busy street. He understood his father's concerns. Then the father and son returned to their house in silence.
"Young Master Gu told my father about some recent events in the capital, and the most important thing is this." Master Chen said in a heavy tone: "Be careful not to be slaughtered."
"Be careful of being slaughtered?" Chen Jingyun muttered doubtfully, and suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at his father, "Be careful of being slaughtered.
Dad, this isn't what I thought it meant?!"
Patriarch Chen did not answer. Instead, he instructed his usually calm son, "Don't be afraid to spend money when sending people out to gather information. If the imperial court really wants to kill us, I'm afraid we will not just lose a little money."
"Dad, does the court really mean this?"
"We haven't had any conflicts with Young Patriarch Gu in the past few years, and we've gotten along very well. From what I know about her, she's not the kind of person who talks nonsense." Patriarch Chen: "Go."
Jiang Kanghui, whose sister was married to Wenchang Marquis's mansion as a concubine, also received the news.
After being surprised, he looked at the prince of Wenchang Marquisate, who came with his sister to meet him, and his sister's husband.
"Uncle Jiang, what are you going to do next?"
Jiang Kanghui frowned slightly, a hint of gloom flashed across his eyes, then he smiled and said, "Sir, the court must know that my Jiang family is the richest in Jiangzhou City."
Since the imperial court wants to use this to rip off merchants like us, I’m afraid the imperial court won’t agree without paying a price.”
Ji Yuanhong, the eldest son of Wenchang Marquis's Mansion, knocked on the table with a very gloomy look on his face, and contempt flashed in his lowered eyes. If the Jiang family hadn't been rich, he wouldn't have recognized a merchant as his eldest brother-in-law.
