Republic of China small businessman

Xie Jing looked at them and asked, "How come there seem to be a few fewer people today?"

Hu Da said: "Oh, they had a bad stomach, I asked them to rest." He took Xie Jing out, and asked impatiently, "Little master, I know you have horses, but when I went out to the horse market yesterday, I happened to see some horses. A few beautiful burgundy horses, palm your eyes for us and have a look, okay?"

Xie Jing was very interested and followed them to the yard.

There were six fine horses parked in the yard, three each in bay red and three in black. Among them was a bay red horse that was exceptionally handsome, not to mention tall and mighty. There was a white diamond-shaped mark on its forehead, and there were white hairs on the four hooves. , let people like it at first sight.

Xie Jing looked around, nodded and said, "Yes, everything is fine, what's the name of this horse?"

Hu Da said: "I don't have a name yet, can my little master give me one?"

Xie Jing couldn't think of anything new, so she glanced at the stable and said casually, "Then it's called Xie Yi." Pointing to the side, she said, "They are called Xie Er, Xie San, and all the way to Xie Liu."

Huda: "..."

Huda: "Good name."

Although Xie Jing praised Xie Yi for his kindness, he still preferred his horse, went to the stable and led Bai Shishi out, got on the horse, and took a few people from the East Yard out together.Hu Da and the others also followed on horseback, and the Xichuan man who walked at the end also led a bay red horse that was empty and not ridden. It was Xie Yi who Xie Jing praised just now, and it was what they prepared for Xie Jing. I also took it with me.

Upstairs study.

Master Jiu watched Xie Jing and his party walk away from the window, waited for a while, called Steward Sun Fu to come in, and asked, "Have you found all the people you asked to find earlier?"

Manager Sun Fu said: "It's all set, there are more than [-] people in total, according to your advice, they are all good hands."

Master Jiu said: "Okay, some Xichuan Xie family members will come over later, let them go with them. After ordering, everyone who goes out to the east courtyard will listen to Patriarch Xie and do as he says."

"Patriarch Xie has returned to the Shanghai stock market?"

"Well, today is the birthday party of the young master of He Mansion."

Manager Sun Fu figured it out after a little thought. He was serving by Master Jiu, and he had heard about Xie Jing's life experience. Xie Siquan's borrowing of people today probably had only one purpose.Steward Sun Fu thought about it for a while, and then asked: "Master, we don't know the number of Patriarch Xie's way, but should the people below bring some self-defense?"

Master Jiu shook his head: "No need, Xie Siquan can at most throw something to vent his anger, and he won't make too much noise for Jing'er's sake."

Steward Sun Fu agreed and went down to prepare.

Master Jiu was reading the account book in the study, but he didn't turn a page for a long time.

In the end, I was still thinking about other things, so I simply put down the account book in my hand, closed my eyes and rested for a while.

He was a little envious of Xie Siquan, if he could, he would also like to take this trip for Xie Jing and express his anger in person.

His little manager Xie has suffered too much, and every time he thinks about it, he feels unwilling.

In the morning, someone came to report on the Textile Bureau. Master Jiu asked Bai Mingyu to come over and ordered him to buy the stocks of several factories in the market, and the amount was quite large.Bai Mingyu stayed in the study for a long time, and when he came out, he was full of fighting spirit and walked vigorously. He had known for a long time that Master Jiu was going to do something big in the Shanghai stock market, and he was very excited to participate in it.

the other side.

The thirty or so guards in the east courtyard did not go to He's house immediately, but were taken to a residence by a few Xichuan people, and they took some black robes for them to change into.These clothes look like Xi Chuan's style, with silver buttons and a distinctive style.

The guards looked at each other in blank dismay, but still obeyed, and they all changed.

After changing, a guard couldn't help asking: "Your buttons are all like this, are they made of silver?"

The Xichuan people said proudly: "That's right."

Guard: "But, don't they all say that wealth is not exposed?"

The Xichuan people were shocked: "Then what's the point of me earning money, I keep it to play on the roof?"

Guard: "..."

As expected of Xie Siquan's subordinate, his mocking skill is too proficient.

Patriarch Xie was a lot more disciplined this time, he wanted someone, although he told Master Jiu that he needed stronger strength, but he didn't expect it to be for carrying the box.

The Xie family prepared a huge wooden box this time. The 40 people were divided into ten groups, and every four people carried a big wooden box.

The guards of the Bai family thought that the wooden box was full of things. Seeing that the box was several times larger than ordinary ones, they subconsciously exerted strength when lifting it up, but they did not expect that it felt light in their hands—this wooden box , were all empty.

The Xichuan people shouted the chant, and the rest of the people echoed, carrying the box out aggressively.

The guards of the Bai family were silent and followed closely behind.

It's just that they were thinking in their hearts that they were afraid that there would be a battle today, and these Xichuan people obviously didn't want to come back with empty boxes.

He Fu.

The He family didn't entertain any guests today, but there were still quite a few people who asked for gifts. The concierge accepted some, but others were stalemate and refused to accept.

Outside were a few guests brought by He Sanye, all dressed in Western style, among them a few Japanese businessmen were pushed and turned away.The steward of the He residence said: "Mr. Yi Chuan's gift is really unacceptable, so I'm sorry."

"Why is this?"

"Because the lawsuit is still pending, my husband said that the students rescued a few days ago have not been released, and he still needs to cooperate with various circles. It is unreasonable to see the person sent by Mr. Yi Chuan from the consulate at this time. I am afraid that there will be gossip." The butler insisted, his tone cold.

A few days ago, there was a lot of trouble. A Chinese worker died in a Japanese cotton mill. The students took to the streets to expose the shady scene of killing the Chinese worker. Instead of admitting their mistakes and paying compensation, the Japanese businessman was arrested by police in the public concession. student.This matter was published in the newspapers, and people from all walks of life were shocked. He Dongting spent several days on this matter, and joined forces with several famous barristers in the Shanghai stock market to speak out. Attorney Bei even took no money to defend the students in court. However, the students are still detained and have not been released. .For a while, the Shanghai stock market was very resistant to Japanese products, and it didn't look good to the Japanese.

Mr. He led a group of people to stand outside, some of them couldn't get off the stage, and said with a bluff, "What kind of hospitality is this, since the guests have come, there is no reason not to let them in!" He said he wanted to force his way , the housekeeper asked someone to stop him, and said calmly: "Sir, today is a family banquet, and the third master wants to come in. Yes, but no one else."

Mr. He pushed him, "Get up, it's not your turn for the He family to talk!"

Butler: "Mr. also said that if the third master commits a crime, he will be driven out together."

Sanye He became furious and was arguing over there, when suddenly there was a burst of laughter from outside the door: "Since it's a family banquet, can my Xichuan Xie family come in?"

The housekeeper of the He residence looked up, and hurriedly said hello: "Thank you, Patriarch."

Xie Siquan was wearing a light silk shirt today, with two corners of the collar standing up in a white collar, a few strands of long hair were braided into small braids, some corals were dotted with them, the small braids were tied high behind his head, and the rest hung down on his shoulders. The dress is gorgeous, but it will never make people distinguish between men and women.Patriarch Xie just stood there with a smile on his thin lips, making people unable to resist stepping back a few steps to make way, not to mention that he brought more than forty people behind him, carrying wooden boxes in a mighty manner.

The housekeeper of the He residence backed away to make way for them, Xie Siquan walked up the steps unceremoniously, and when he passed by the housekeeper, he looked at Mr. He next to him, and said with a smile: "Mr. What are you doing here? Do you want to take advantage of my nephew's birthday to earn some money to supplement the family?"

He said this lightly, but Mr. He didn't get too angry.

Xie Siquan looked up at the guards at the door again, and snorted: "Whose pay are you eating? If you can't even watch the door, why don't you tell me, I'll help He Dongting drive people out!"

Cold sweat broke out on the butler's forehead, he didn't dare to offend anyone, he just bowed and took him in personally, and said: "Thank you, Patriarch, sir, sir is already waiting for you."

The people at the door still blocked him, and only Mr. He was allowed to go in alone, but Mr. He had already blown his mouth in front of the Japanese businessman, and now he couldn't come down, it was really embarrassing.

Those people sent by Yichuan to give gifts were also used to being arrogant in normal times, after being shut down, they immediately gave a cold snort to Mr. He, and led them away.Mr. He hurriedly stepped forward to try to persuade him a few more words, but he got a slap in the face, and the other party said angrily: "None of the things you said can be done well. Mr. Yichuan has been dissatisfied with you for a long time. When you go back, you will personally agree with me." Mr. Yi Chuan, justify yourself!"

Mr. He received a slap in the street, his face was red and white, very ugly.

Xie Siquan went to the yard, but didn't go in, raised his hand to ask the people behind him to put down the wooden box, and called He Dongting to come out.

He Dongting came out in a hurry, followed by all the guests of the He family.All the people surnamed He came to this banquet, and the oldest one was He Dongting's mother, Mrs. He, she was wearing a new purple dress, He Shuwei was holding her hand, and the two followed He Dongting one step behind s position.

Ten huge wooden boxes fell to the ground in the yard, and everyone slowly let go of their hearts.

Someone whispered: "This is Xie Siquan, the richest man in Xichuan, and Shuwei's uncle. He should know that Shuwei's birthday is a small one this time, so he is here to support him!"

There were also people who looked enviously, inspected those wooden boxes, and sighed: "This is the first time I have seen such a big box, how many treasures must be packed here?"

But there were also people who were puzzled: "This Xichuan He family hasn't been here for some years, but in the past two years it was—" It's hard to say what happened to the He family at the moment, it's just vague.

"Maybe we're here to make friends?"

……

When He Shuwei saw the people in the yard, he bowed his hands and greeted the uncle from Xichuan from afar.

Xie Siquan didn't look at him, he only looked up at He Dongting and asked: "I've left you enough time, have you thought it through?"

He Dongting nodded and said: "Think clearly, I have already told my mother to rewrite the family tree in a few days."

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding people immediately erupted in commotion.

Although everyone didn't know what happened, they could still hear the word "family tree" clearly, and all eyes fell on He Shuwei for a while, and some even secretly went to see Mrs. He.

He Dongting mentioned Xie Jing's matter to Mrs. He, but it was obvious that the old lady had other plans, and said anxiously: "Dong Ting, absolutely not!" She repeatedly tapped the crutch on the ground in her hand, "You are confused, how can you just do it like this I have recognized an outsider several times in a row, and which time was it not an outsider deliberately causing trouble, do you still believe what the Xie family said?"

"You, the He family, should be more polite!" Xie Siquan said displeased, "I've never denied anything I've done, but don't blame me for what I haven't done!"

He Dongting was about to speak, but Mrs. He, relying on the presence of all clan members, preemptively said: "In short, I don't recognize him, I only recognize Shuwei!"

Xie Siquan clapped his palms and smiled: "Are you willing to let Jing'er recognize you when you are me! Your He family has taught people in such a bad way, mud can't support the wall, I dare not put the treasure in my heart here, the truth is with you Come on, even if you want to admit it, it depends on my mood! You have a poor family fortune, so give it to me, and I am still looking forward to someone inheriting the family business!" He turned his head to look at He Dongting, although he was smiling, there was a smile in his eyes. Without the slightest warmth, "Boss He, I think you haven't thought it through today. If you think it through, no one will stop you."

During He Shuwei's period, Ai Ai opened his mouth and shouted "Uncle", Xie Siquan raised his hand and interrupted: "Hey, don't shout anymore, I have completely cut off you and the He family, and I will no longer communicate with you in the future."

He Shuwei looked shocked, looked at him and asked, "What does this mean?"

Xie Siquan said: "It means literally, I don't recognize you."

He asked someone to open the wooden box, and all the boxes were empty. Xie Siquan stood in front of the crowd and glanced over the crowd, his eyes fell on the leaders: "Madam He may have misunderstood just now, I am not here to divide up your He family." The property is something that I came to want to return to my Xie family. My elder sister married into the He family that day, and a load of dandelions and bars were all made of vermilion lacquer and gold, and the dowry money was millions of dollars. It's ridiculous for a child to want to keep this money, since you are raising this..." He pointed at He Shuwei with his finger, and said with a sneer, "I still want to inherit this property, it's just a dream, after so many years, it's time to return it The original owner!"

Uncle Xie: It’s just for ridicule, Xichuan’s necessary skills, let’s go.
