Chapter 481: The benefits cannot be taken into account for one person
Xin''an is pregnant. As a mother-in-law, Wang comes to see her every day to ask if she feels uncomfortable or what she wants. Today, she specially sent a book to Xin''an, saying that what she found in the study of the Hou Mansion was quite interesting. "The weather is hot, and in the future it will be a day of misfortune. It feels hotter than usual to be pregnant. It is good to read two books to pass the time."
“Thank you, mother.”
Xin An was about to ask why Tang Gang''s attitude changed so quickly. Is there anything she didn''t know?
Wang was also a little strange about this. Tang Gang never looked at the Xin family. If it weren''t for the marriage that the old marquis had decided that he would not have wanted to recognize him. His attitude towards the Xin family was similar to that of his own servants. Even if there were some changes later, there would not be much.
Tang Mo could guess the reason, "My father-in-law has a certain reputation among merchants. Last year, several merchants went to Manager Zhang in the name of his father-in-law. Manager Zhang came forward to help solve several problems as the chief manager of the Hou Mansion, and got a lot of benefits, and those benefits were given to his father."
Xin An didn''t know about this, "Do you just ask me to ask or Manager Zhang to intercept me halfway?"
"I''m asking for it directly."
Tang Mo said that he should not underestimate Manager Zhang''s ability. In the mansion, he is the chief manager of the Marquis''s mansion. Outside, he can give Tang Gang 30% of his power. "The so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, Manager Zhang is more decent than those officials with low rank."
Xin An still knows this, "You continue."
Tang Mo continued to say that many merchants who are in trouble now want to manage the matter. This is an ordinary matter and was an inconspicuous trivial matter in the past.
But now many families are living a short life, and this benefit naturally becomes not simple. "The Marquis'' Mansion is not only not affected by the treasury debt, but his father also made contributions for the charitable donation. The emperor praised him in the court and gave his father a very good job. In addition, the subsequent fundraising incident fell into the King of Jin''s Mansion. Those people naturally became less hostile to their father. The marriages of the three girls rose with the flow, and the students in the college were even more concerned about them."
"There were more people who flattered my father at the Shuihua banquet yesterday than before. In this case, the arrival of the second uncle and his family is a good thing for his father. When it is won over, I guess he will be more polite to his father-in-law in the future."
The key point is that you don’t want him to continue to grow bigger. You have to share the benefits in his hands. Even if you can’t share them, you have to take a bite to his eldest son.
Wang didn''t know that Tang Gang was also profiting the benefits of merchants through Manager Zhang, so he was so angry that he wanted to turn around and go to Tang Gang to argue. However, Xin An looked as usual and had a smile on his face, "Manager Zhang''s approach is not surprising. I believe that the major managers in the court will do such things. In the eyes of merchants, it is much easier to find a manager than a regular owner, and it is easier to get along with."
"This is the reason why the King of Hell is easy to meet a ghost and it is difficult to deal with. My father''s actions can be understood, and it makes people unable to say anything. There is a natural gap between the Xin family and the Hou Mansion. It is a good thing that my second uncle''s family can get treated so enthusiastically by his father."
"Everything complements each other, and the benefits cannot be monopolized by one family, but it is just that each person depends on his ability."
The Xin family cannot live without the Marquis'' Mansion, at least in the past ten years. If you want to achieve your goal, you must borrow the light of the Marquis'' Mansion. In the past, you can only borrow from the Marquis'' Mansion. Now you are in the capital.
On the contrary, we should also give the Hou Mansion good. Even though Tang Gang did not show up at all during the process, he never helped them directly. "I will discuss with my second uncle. If the Xin family''s transaction can be successfully deployed in the capital, I will calculate a copy for my father alone, even the rules of relatives are required."
Tang Mo also felt that he should be. His old man is not a broad-minded person. If he doesn''t get any benefits, he will say some sour words.
As he was talking, Pingqiu came in and said that the young lady from the Pingshun Mansion sent a post to invite Tao Yiran to go out to appreciate the lotus tomorrow.
Tang Mo and Xin An looked at each other and realized that Wang didn''t even read the invitation, so he asked Ping Qiu to send it to Tao Yiran. Tang Gang meant that Tao Yiran would not be allowed to go out again, and that Wang would also ask Wang to scold Tao Yiran for his ostentatiousness yesterday. Wang did not go to be that bad person, so he would avoid being called mean, and the main focus was to let him go.
After a moment, Ping Qiu replied again, saying that Tao Yiran had accepted the invitation, "I have sent someone to reply."
After sitting in Qiushiyuan for a while, he got up and left, and turned around and asked Ping Qiu to inform Ganlu of the matter. Didn’t the old lady always want to care about Tao Yiran, and she naturally wanted to give her a chance.
She left, Xin An and Tang Mo also relaxed a lot. They were not going to let Wang worry about some things. Xin An said, "Next, we just need to keep an eye on the result. Ping Shun Bo is even more willing to put in his strength than we imagined."
"What good thing can be a bad thing in your mind?"
The couple was still eyeing the Pingshun Bo Bo. After the young lady of the Pingshun Bo Mansion wanted her to make a fool of herself in the royal palace, Xin An remembered the fact that the Pingshun Bo Mansion was seized in her previous life. A dignified uncle abducted the population for the sake of profit, from a beautiful woman in her early twenties to a beautiful child of seven or eight years old, just to use it to open up relationships and bribes, which harmed many lives.
She wanted to use Pingshun Bo to pave the way for Tang Mo, but she never expected that it would be a natural reason. Moreover, this matter was very involved. Tang Mo was afraid that he could not withstand the pressure alone. Tang Gang was not a person who would meddle in other people''s business. It would be beneficial to him to pull Pingshun Bo off, but the disadvantages were greater than the benefits. Therefore, the couple had never set a good charter.
Until Lin Yao told her about the affairs of Prince Nanguang, she had the introduction to the Marquis’s Mansion to meet the Pingshun Bo Mansion, and asked Pingshun Bo’s own advisers to give him advice and be able to curry favor with Prince Nanguang, so could Pingshun Bo give up?
When the time is right, let Tang Gang know about this, so that he can know that Ping Shun Bo will take the prince''s wife of the Marquis''s mansion to be a favor. Will he never bear this anger? Then the father and son will join forces
"If you do this well, you can do everything we want to do."
Tang Mo nodded, saying that he had arranged people to keep an eye on the Pingshun Bo Mansion these days, and he would have to seize the evidence that the Bo Mansion had committed crimes over the years. "Even if this matter is not good for us, I will not let them go. We are not good people. If we did not do anything good, we will be considered as a good thing."
Xin An looked at him sideways, "What are you saying? We didn''t do good things in the affairs of the two next door, and we did a lot of things to do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Didn''t you help those people under your command? Didn''t take care of the beggars who have you managed for several streets?"
"I''m not loyal to you?"
"I spent a lot of effort on Qianjintang."
"Yes, yes." Tang Mo stepped forward and helped her sit down, "We still did good deeds without leaving a name, and what we wanted was to have a clear conscience."
