    Early in the morning on March 29th, Wang Yuanbao arrived outside Buyun Tower in East City of Chang'an. Today was the day when he invited the bosses of the Liuli Guild in Chang'an City. The matter was important and he did not dare to neglect it, so he just  After passing by, he arrived at Buyun Tower.  Originally, he wanted to book Buyun Tower, but after he arrived, he learned that a group of literati were meeting here.  Although they were wealthy businessmen, they did not dare to be too arrogant in front of the literati. Who knew whether there would be future ministers or Jingzhao among these literati? At 11:00, after waiting for two full hours, Wang Yuanbao did not wait for any guests.  .  He frowned, secretly angry in his heart: Do the owners of the Liuli Guild think that his main focus is on the ball market, so they are neglecting him?  After a while, Wang Yuanbao finally saw an oil-walled truck carrying one of the people he invited.  "Gu Langjun is here, haha It's too late to welcome him from afar." Wang Yuanbao was angry in his heart, but his face was still peaceful. He stepped forward and handed over to Mr. Gu.  Gu Dongjia's face was as gloomy as a well. When he saw him, he immediately said: "Wang Weng, what are you waiting for here? Stop waiting. No one will come." "Oh?" "Ye Shiyi invited the leaders of the east and west cities of the capital.  Most of the Liulichang stores went to discuss the distribution of glassware shares. "What, what?" Wang Yuanbao's face became extremely ugly. He asked himself how quickly he reacted. Ye Chang only invited the auction held there.  The owners of Liulichang discussed taking countermeasures as a group, but they never thought that Ye Chang would move faster than him: "Gu Langjun, tell me what is going on.  "After forcing himself to calm down, Wang Yuanbao said in a deep voice. "I received Wang Weng's invitation yesterday morning, and I received Ye Shiyi's invitation in the afternoon.  "That Gu Dongjia looked gloomy: "Hu Yuanxiang sent the invitation on his behalf, and everyone except Wang Weng and a certain person received it." "Hu Yuanxiang, this short-sighted dog slave." After hearing the news, Wang Yuanbao immediately understood what was going on.  Hu Yuanxiang was his competitor in the city competition. Under Jia Maoer's introduction, he got in touch with Ye Chang, so Wang Yuanbao didn't like him, so he wasn't there when he sent out the invitations.  Three generations of Hu Yuanxiang's family have been operating Liuli in Chang'an, and their connections in the industry are still there. News of Wang Yuanbao's treat was soon known to him. Although Wang Yuanbao's treat was not to discuss dealing with Ye Chang, since he did not invite Hu Yuanxiang, Hu Yuanxiang would naturally do so.  Thinking of ruining this conference, "No one notified me" Wang Yuanbao also felt chilled at this time. Not one of the more than ten large merchants selling glazed ware in Chang'an City notified him.  Mr. Gu, because he had always had a bad relationship with the Hu family, had not received the invitation, so he leaked the news to him. "Wang Weng, you have to think of a way. You also knew about the auction of more than a hundred pieces of glassware yesterday.  The glassware sold for 100,000 yuan. Whether it was glass tea sets or glass mirrors, they were very popular. It was obvious that they wanted to become popular in Chang'an. If we were excluded, not only would we not be able to make money on glassware, but we would also be unable to make money on glassware.  The colored glaze in his hand will also be greatly affected." "Why doesn't Wang Yuanbao understand what Gu Langjun said, but what can he do? "In your opinion, what should we do?"  " "Wang Weng took the lead and led those of us who had not received the invitation to go straight to find Ye Shiyilang.  Since Wang Weng took over the football market from Ye Shiyilang, I think he has some kindness. He just needs to let us join in and share a piece of the pie, and everything will be stable." Wang Yuanbao looked a little strange. He looked at Gu Langjun for a while.  Then he asked: "We are not just your family?  " "Of course, not only Hu Yuanxiang, who looks down on others, only sells big businesses, but there are also a few people who are like me and not in his eyes. We discussed it together and felt that we were single and weak and it was not easy to compete with them.  "Only Wang Weng takes the lead to compete with Hu Yuanxiang." Wang Yuanbao's mouth was full of bitterness, and he understood Gu Langjun's true intention. Gu Langjun said nicely, saying that he and Ye Chang had some old friendship,  In fact, everyone knows that he used some tricks to take over the football market from Ye Chang. Now if he is asked to negotiate with Ye Chang, there are only two reasons. One is to use the same tricks as before, and the other is to surrender.  Ye Chang apologized. But if he resorted to the same tactics as before, no one with any influence could be found to exert pressure and influence on Ye Chang. Even if there were, who would dare to do so now in Chang'an City?  Everyone knows that Ye Chang presented a huge mirror to Yang Yuhuan, which made the saint happy. Moreover, Ye Chang had just won a great victory in Liaodong and recovered it without any soldiers, arrows or arrows from the imperial court.  Ji Li Prefecture's treasure presentation and military merits, these two are in line with Li Longji's temperament of great achievements. With Yang Yuhuan inside and Li Linfu outside, Ye Chang has a huge backer. It is no longer the case that he had no one to rely on except Princess Yuzhen.  , Now even if Princess Yuzhen wants to reach out to Ye Chang, she may not be able to do it well. Then the only way is to reach out to Ye Chang.Surrendered and surrendered Wang Yuanbao originally thought of concentrating on the Liulichang of Chang'an City to fight against Ye Chang, but it fell apart when Ye Chang allocated a quota of glassware. He was stillborn before he even had time to implement his strategy.  In the belly.  Under such circumstances, how could Wang Yuanbao not suspect that all of this was conceived by Ye Chang in advance? If this is true Wang Yuanbao broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and the hairs all over his body stood up, as if there was an extremely fierce and powerful creature.  The extremely cunning beast showed its sharp teeth behind him.  At this time, Wang Yuanbao really regretted that he should not have offended Ye Chang.  From the second year of Tianbao when he took away the management rights of the ball market from Ye Chang, to the fifth year of Tianbao now, which is less than four years on a monthly basis, Ye Chang's revenge has arrived.  "This matter let me think about it more, think about it again." Wang Yuanbao hesitated for a long time, and finally said slowly. "Gu Langjun's eyes were full of disappointment. He felt that Wang Yuanbao should continue to be decisive, and he really did not have the wisdom to control the shopping mall for thirty years.  .  However, his own family knew about his family affairs, and the conflict between him and Hu Yuanxiang was deeper than that between Wang Yuanbao and Hu Yuanxiang. Without Wang Yuanbao's help, he would run to see Ye Chang, but Ye Chang would not pay attention to him.  "Wang Weng, we businessmen all know that there is no grudge that cannot be let go in this world, only profit that cannot be let go. If we can bring more benefits to Ye Shiyilang than Hu Yuanxiang, then there will be some  How can Ye Shiyi take this misunderstanding to heart? What we want is for you, Mr. Wang, to admit your mistake to Ye Shiyi. We are open to do business. We can make money by admitting our mistakes. Is there anything wrong that we cannot admit?  To put it nicely, even if you recognize your father and your mother, it¡¯s nothing more than that.¡± In a hurry, Gu Langjun said to Wang Yuanbao.  Wang Yuanbao sighed: "I know Okay, I'll have someone send a greeting card to Ye Chang's house No, I'll go to his house to wait in person. Alas, it was just a mistake at the beginning, and it ended up like this." He thought about it  In order to show his sincerity, he sent people back to prepare heavy gifts and prepare to go directly to Ye Chang's house.  While he was still giving instructions, he saw several literati waddling over, two of whom he recognized.  "Isn't this Wang Weng? Why do you have time to come to Buyun Tower today?" One of the people he recognized nodded to him.  "It turns out to be Mr. He and Mr. Fei." Wang Yuanbao had something on his mind, so he just said hello, turned around and left. His dejected look fell into the eyes of He and Fei, who looked at each other and felt a little unhappy.  When Li Shizhi became the prime minister, his disciples and Qingke also had a high status. Wang Yuanbao saw that they were very fawning, but now, he is not even willing to say a few words.  "This prince looks very wealthy I wonder who he is?" asked a thin scribe who was with them.  "Ah, dear brother Zimei, this prince is Wang Yuanbao, a famous rich man in Chang'an City. The so-called rich man who can rival the country refers to him." Mr. He said with a smile.  Zimei is Du Fu. He has a closer relationship with Li Shi's faction. He came to Beijing this time to prepare to participate in the election.  Li Yong's death had a great impact on him, making him realize that there were indeed evil spirits in the Tang Dynasty. He had a stubborn temper, so he was determined to become an official and fight against those evil spirits.  Although Li Shizhi is no longer the prime minister, the prince's young master is also a prominent figure, so Du Fu can get in touch with people who are more likely to recommend him.  He became acquainted with Li Shizhi's retainers during his visits to Chang'an City. This time He and Fei hosted a banquet for scholars and scholars, and he was also invited.  When we got to Buyun Tower, several people had already arrived. These Confucian scholars spent half a day chatting and greeting each other.  Although Du Fu felt that these false etiquettes were really boring, he had no choice but to join in the fun.  At three o'clock, all the invited people arrived, and the food and wine began to be served.  Du Fu's family was of average wealth, and he didn't need to worry about money when he followed Ye Chang. After the two broke up, although Ye Chang still sent people to his house to deliver money and food as usual, he took them all back.  Prices in Chang'an City are so high that a table of food and wine like this can't be bought for less than one hundred thousand dollars. Seeing this table full of food and wine, Du Fu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.  "Poems such as "The wine and meat in Zhumen stinks, and the bones on the road are frozen to death" did not come out of thin air, or even were written in a moment of anger.  "Drinking wins" "Drinking wins" No matter what, everyone is eating and drinking, and Du Fu can only follow the crowd.  After drinking for three rounds, He Langjun and Fei Langjun exchanged glances, and then He Langjun said: "Although Chang'an is a good place, it is not a place where I have lived for a long time. You are all close friends of me and we all share the same interests."  , but there is always a banquet in life, maybe after today, we will go our separate ways" "Why did He Langjun say this?" Fei Langjun said in surprise.  "In the past, when I was in Chang'an, it was because it was the most beautiful place in the Tang Dynasty and a place with beautiful clothes. But when I look at Chang'an recently, I just feel that the smell of copper is everywhere, and it is no longer the peaceful place" Everyone was very surprised. When it comes to the smell of copper,  , this He Langjun can"It's a very good yellow and white thing." He said this with emotion at this time, which made people feel uncomfortable.  "He Langjun must have felt it. What makes you so depressed?" Fei Langjun asked again.  "What do I do when I live in Chang'an as a guest? Is it just to be able to express God's will in writing and serve as an official, to live up to my ambition? Officials of the Tang Dynasty are selected by the Holy Will to perform hundreds of duties for the emperor. Therefore, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty,  Officials are not allowed to do business for merchants, but just yesterday, there was a sixth-rank official who was selling rare treasures collected from the auction, extravagant and indulgent, and unscrupulous." Nahe Langjun kept talking, in his mouth  Yesterday's auction was Ye Chang's heinous crime.  He Langjun is worthy of being a literati. The last person even recited a poem: "The stone is covered with a curtain, and the king's awl breaks the plum" He recited half of the poem, but forgot the other half for a while. After holding it for a long time, he said with a red face and ears: "  In short, this Ye Shiyi is extremely arrogant, extravagant and shameless." After he finished speaking, Fei Langjun over there touched his palm and said: "Exactly, exactly. When Brother He said it, Fei also felt that something was wrong. Ye Shiyi's actions were really inappropriate.  How could he be so unbecoming of an official of the imperial court and ruin the customs of the Tang Dynasty? In the past, the Tibetan people praised Donglu for coming to our country in the Tang Dynasty.  When he was really hungry, he would pick up biscuits discarded by people on the street to satisfy his hunger.  The prosperity of Tubo can be seen from this, and it should be the same for the officials of the Tang Dynasty. Ye Shiyi, who is a low-level official, dares to ruin the temple. It is really annoying and annoying." The people here looked at each other, these two  The people sang and pointed the finger at Ye Chang. Although these people were not very familiar with official affairs, they also understood that they were definitely not talking like this without reason. Du Fu next to him had a cold expression and cold eyes. "Du Fu didn't expect it."  , today's meeting was actually related to Ye Chang. He really didn't want to hear Ye Chang's name, but when he learned that Ye Chang had made great achievements in the border area to regain Jili Prefecture, he silently drank water instead of wine at his home.  He has worshiped Heaven and Earth. He is very familiar with Ye Chang and knows that Ye Chang's life is indeed more luxurious than that of ordinary people, but Ye Chang has his own explanation for his luxury: he can make money, but if he doesn't live a little more extravagantly, he can spread the money.  , then money will become scrap metal. "Ye Chang's theory, Du Fu thought it was absurd at first, but after observing the people's livelihood, he gradually found it reasonable.  Waste is indeed beneficial to those who serve this person. "What I am saying is that if such people are allowed to continue to be arrogant, our country will not be able to survive." Someone said angrily, "He is just a lackey."  "How dare you do this if you are lucky to get an official position?" Someone started, and suddenly the crowd became furious, and everyone began to accuse Ye Chang. Seeing this scene, He and Fei's eyebrows were filled with joy, knowing that the matter was half done. They struck while the iron was hot, then  Fei Langjun then said: "We, the educated and intelligent people, control the public opinion, how can we sit back and let these villains take over?  Brother He, don't leave in a hurry, we all might as well" When he said this, his voice began to lower, and everyone's heads gradually came together, and then a sensible person took a breath of cold air: "This is what a thousand people would do.  It means if it is really done, we people will be no worse than the Censor."
