Chapter 272 Business is business
In Huaiyuanfang, when Ji Wen came down immediately, he looked at the Xishi Ling Mansion in front of him. When he thought of An Lushan who was panicked, he couldn't help but feel that the governor of the two towns was from a miscellaneous Hu, and he lost his temper when he encountered major events.
"Go and inform Chen Lang quickly, I have something to visit."
Shi Jian was also a party of Li Linfu. Although he had a low status in the past, Ji Wen had also come to his mansion. After the servant recognized Ji Wen, he dared not be negligent. He welcomed Ji Wen into the mansion and said, "Jiangshi, the man went to Yichunyuan, and he was almost back as usual."
"Since that's the case, let's make a pot of tea and wait for Chen Lang here."
Ji Wen didn't dare to regard Chen Guang as an ordinary person anymore. The saint's emphasis on Chen Lang is no longer something that can be expressed by the word "popularity". What's more, Chen Lang is good at dancing, not only a saint, but also a concubine and a prince love him very much.
He went to Qinrenfang before. The reason why An Lushan was so panicked was that this Mihu went to the palace to complain to the imperial concubine, but was scolded by the imperial concubine and told him not to offend Chen Lang. Now this guy was very worried. When he left Qinrenfang, the governor of the two towns had prepared a heavy gift and went to the prime minister's mansion.
Ji Wen drank tea and didn't wait long before he saw Chen Guang returning home. "Chen Lang, but he's back."
"I don't know that Censor Ji has come, and Chen is in a position to welcome him. Please forgive me."
Chen Guang was still very polite to Ji Wen. He was unwilling to provoke Ji Wen and Luo Xishi. Most of these cruel officials were narrow-minded. Sometimes if they offend them with just one word, they would be hated, and it would be better to be careful.
"Hello, please be polite. Speaking of which, I came here today, to be a lobbyist for An Jiedu."
After the two sat down, Ji Wen quickly expressed his intention. Originally, An Lushan asked his subordinates to send dead soldiers to assassinate Chen Guang. If he didn't leave any evidence of death, An Lushan would be able to deny him. However, An Shouzhong was smart enough to make those dead soldiers pretend to be bad people, and not to mention them, Chen Guang caught three living people, and left behind the pedestrians and people on the streets to testify.
In Chang'an County, it is impossible not to care about this case. Now that this matter has been circulated in the city, it must be the method of this Chen Lang.
Ji Wen received Li Linfu's instructions and the case should be stopped. As the mastermind, An Shouzhong gave Chen Lang an explanation, but he could no longer involve An Lushan. However, if Chen Lang refused, he had to say a few words in front of the saint, and he and Luo Xishi would have to take the blame.
"Oh, the Censor Ji was a lobbyist for An Jiedu."
When Chen Guang poured tea for Ji Wen, he smiled on his face. He couldn't guess what he was thinking. He had to bite the bullet and said, "Chen Lang doesn't know anything. An Jiedu has been in the border area for a long time, and he doesn't know the name of Chen Lang. The generals under his command are vulgar martial artists. In the morning, the incident was all because of An Jiedu's name An Shouzhong's Yasen's decision, and An Jiedu was completely unaware of it."
"After knowing this, Ji Duke An was very frightened, so he invited someone to be a lobbyist. He was willing to come to the door to apologize. If Chen Lang was not satisfied, he would whip him out a few times."
When Ji Wen said this, he couldn't help but sigh that An Lushan's skin was so thick that he could recognize the concubine as his mother, and then he would come to Chen Lang with his breasts exposed to him, carrying a thorn and apologizing for guilt.
Chen Guang was stunned when he heard this, but then he came to his senses. It was the sixth year of Tianbao, and An Lushan had just gained power. If he knew about his affairs between the saint and the imperial concubine from others, he might have really told him this without any hesitation.
However, it is not a bad thing to be able to get this fat man's face severely. Anyway, he will go back to Anxi after the trial. Even if he comes to Chang'an in the future, he will be all his own people on the way from Anxi to Longyou Hexi. The power of this fat man is far away from Youyan, so how can he do anything to him?
"Okay, since An Jiedu said so, Chen is not a stingy person, so he waits for An Jiedu to come to the door to take the thorns and apologize."
Chen Guang's pleasure was beyond Ji Wen's expectations. However, when he heard that Chen Guang really wanted An Lushan to take the thorns and apologize, Ji Wen couldn't help but hesitate, "Chen Lang, An Jiedu is always the governor of the two towns, and is favored by the saints. Although he has the guilt of not being strict in the control of his subordinates, he should forget it if he apologizes for this. An Jiedu is willing to apologize with gold and silver."
Ji Wen and An Lushan have a good personal relationship. Given the money An Lushan sends every year, Ji Wen plans to help An Lushan win back some face. You must know that in the eyes of the world, Chen Lang is just happy to talk about everyone, but I don’t know the relationship between this person and the saint. An Lushan is enough to lose face if he apologizes to Chen Lang, let alone apologize for guilt.
"How much does An Jiedushi plan to accompany him?"
"Two hundred thousand coins."
Seeing that Chen Guang did not shy away from talking about money, Ji Wen quickly reported a number. Although he had concealed 100,000 guan, the 200,000 guan was not a small amount.
"Is it two hundred thousand coins?"
Chen Guang murmured to himself, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a redeemable punishment for money to offset crimes. Of course, only the privileged class could enjoy this law of spending money to eliminate sins.
"Chief Ji, do you think that somebody has 200,000 yuan?"
Hearing Chen Guang's retort, Ji Wen suddenly realized that the Chen Lang in front of him was a good person who was not short of money. For others, 200,000 yuan was a fortune, but for this person, it was really just a small amount of money.
"Since Chen Lang insists on it, there is nothing to say."
Ji Wen would not be angry about this matter. It was An Lushan who was embarrassed, not him. He just a pity that he could not get the benefits of 100,000 yuan.
"Censor Ji, since he is here, why should I rush to leave? Chen happened to have a business and wanted to talk to Censor Ji, but I don't know Censor Ji..."
"What business?"
Ji Wen became interested. He knew Chen Guang's ability to make money. He heard that Chen Lang started from scratch in Anxi and earned a net worth of millions in just over a year. Even the God of Wealth was just such a method.
"Chief Ji knows that Anxi is burning spring?"
"The best wine in the world, why haven't you heard of it?"
The name of Anxi Shaochun has now been completely launched in Chang'an City. Chen Guang has always controlled Anxi Shaochun to flow into the market. Except for a few people, only a dozen jars were given to the top-notch powerful people in Chang'an City through Gao Xianzhi's hands.
But these dozen jars of strong wine are not enough for the powerful people who have good wine to have a banquet. Li Linfu had to give two jars of Gao Xianzhi. However, Li Linfu is old and doesn't like this too strong wine. Ji Wen and Luo Xishi have tasted it. Even though they are not good wines, they are unforgettable.
Seeing Chen Guang mentioning the Anxi Shaochun, Ji Wen naturally became energetic and wanted to know which business Chen Guang wanted to do.
Chen Guang originally wanted to sell Anxi Shaochun to the north, but now he offended An Lushan very much. Although shameless people like An Lushan may not care about their face as long as they are profitable, he has to maintain his own personality. Therefore, Anxi Shaochun sold Anxi to the Youyan Land, naturally needs a middleman to change hands.
Ji Wen and Luo Xishi are the best candidates. On the one hand, Chen Guang is willing to make friends with these two cruel officials, and on the other hand, he does not want them to have too close relationship with An Lushan and provide help to An Lushan.
"I have my own quota for sale in Anxi Shaochun, and it is available in all parts of the Tang Dynasty. From Anxi to Chang'an City, I have sold out the quota. However, the Youyan and the Northland cannot find a reliable middle-aged man. I just don't know if the Censor Ji is willing to be this middle-aged man."
