It stands to reason.
Such a big thing happened in Yongxian.
The Wei family, as a wealthy family second only to the Li family, should have a move.
But on the other hand, the other party never moved, as if he didn’t know about it at all.
Wang Hao read all the content of the people’s complaints, and there were very few complaints about the Wei family, and even sent people to inquire about the Wei family, and there were few bad reviews.
That’s really weird.
Could it be…
Wang Hao’s theory has been skewed.
With a wealth like Wei’s, is it really obtained by normal means?
To be honest, Wang Hao didn’t quite believe it.
“Zhang Yi, how do you feel about the Wei family?”
In the carriage, Wang Hao tentatively inquired about the news of the Wei family.
“This…”
Zhang Yi pondered for a moment.
Wang Hao could see that he was not hesitating, but really thinking: “The Wei family is relatively low-key, and its reputation among the people of Yongxian County is also good. ”
“Oh?”
Wang Hao couldn’t help but be curious: “Then can you understand their family’s business, which is the main aspect?” ”
For the several rich people in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, Wang Hao still has some understanding.
For example, the Donghai Mi family made their fortune by working for the imperial court for salt, and in just a few years, they can even be compared with the Jia Zhen family, the richest man in Hebei.
And what about the Zhen family in Hebei?
Their ancestors had two thousand stone officials, so this network was relatively extensive, belonging to the kind of collusion between officials and businessmen, and the scope of business was also relatively extensive, and the seniority was the deepest!
But this Fufeng Wei …
Wang Hao had never heard of it, not even a single bit of historical materials.
For the traversing public, the absence of historical reference is tantamount to losing a big help.
Wang Hao must use his own judgment to consider and pinch Wei’s and try to use it for himself.
But on the other hand…
Wang Hao’s first question, Zhang Jie could not answer.
“Seriously…”
Zhang Yi let out a long breath and said softly: “I have been in Yongxian for three years, and I have not figured out what the Wei family is going through, every time except for horses, most of them are sack packages, and no one has cleaned up what is inside. ”
“Oh?”
Wang Hao became more and more curious: “Is it so mysterious?” ”
Zhang Yi nodded: “Hmm! From this point of view, it is indeed very mysterious. ”
Squeak~~~
The carriage stopped.
“Master, the Wei family has arrived.”
Zhang Nan lifted the curtain and placed the bench below.
Wang Hao walked out of the carriage.
Look up.
The Wei family manor is extraordinary.
The surrounding walls are all green bricks and white tiles, and the people in the house are also blue clothes and hats.
Such a configuration, even if it is placed in Luoyang, is not inferior to people, not to mention the small county here?
Since the name thorn has already been handed over.
A middle-aged man wearing a slanted placket was waiting outside the house.
Seeing Wang Hao personally arrived.
This person hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and said with a light smile: “Wei Jun of Yongxian County, meet the county zun.” ”
Wang Hao glanced at this person, and he looked rich and noble in his outfit, but this licking and laughing appearance did not look like a family owner, even compared with Li Qiong, it was far from it.
“Are you the head of the Wei family?”
Wang Hao couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“Back to the county.”
Wei Jun waved and explained honestly: “In Xia is not the head of the Wei family, the head of the family is far away in Luoyang, and he has not returned to Yongxian for many years, and the business of Yongxian is temporarily all in charge of Xia.” ”
“Oh~~~”
Wang Hao suddenly realized.
No wonder.
It turned out that he was not the head of the Wei family, but just a steward.
“County Zun!”
Wei Jun waved his hand to make an invitation: “The house has prepared fine wine, and the county lord is specially marquised.” ”
Wang Hao snorted: “Okay then, let’s talk while eating.” ”
Enter the Wei Mansion.
Wang Hao suddenly felt like he had entered another world.
Although there is only one wall apart, the world inside the wall obviously has an exotic style.
At first, Wang Hao just thought it was the culture of Qiang Hu, after all, Yongxian is close to Liangzhou, and there were originally Qiang people here.
But later, when the other party brought two plates of grapes.
Wang Hao immediately understood!
There is indeed an exotic atmosphere here, but it has nothing to do with Qiang Hu, but with the Western Regions.
Because this grape is what Zhang Qian brought back from the Western Regions.
The Silk Road has been abandoned for many years.
According to common sense, these things should rarely appear in Dahan.
But on the other hand…
Wei Jiaran could still take out the grapes.
Wouldn’t it prove that they had always had business dealings with the Western Regions?
Or, in the past, the Wei family had business contacts with the Western Regions, but now the business is cut off, but there are vineyards in Yong County?
“Peach?”
Wang Hao picked one up and said with a smile: “It’s really a rarity.” ”
Grapes, called peach in the Book of Han, can make wine, and people drink it, but they are intoxicated, so it is famous.
Wei Jun couldn’t help but be surprised: “Oh? The county lord also knows Pu Tao? ”
Wang Hao smiled lightly and let out a long breath: “What’s so strange about this, it’s just an object from the Western Regions, I just didn’t expect that the Silk Road has been abandoned for many years, and there can still be such a thing in Yong County.” ”
“The county lord really has insight.”
Wei Jun clasped his fists and waved them: “Don’t hide from the county zun, back then, our ancestor of the Wei family followed Zhang Qian out of the jam and planted hundreds of acres of peach orchards in Yong County!” ”
Hundreds of acres of peach orchards?
Wang Hao was stunned suddenly, this scale is not small!
“If I’m not mistaken.”
Wang Hao paused for a moment, stared at Wei Jun with interest, and said softly, “Your peach should only be provided to the dignitaries of Luoyang, right?” That’s why the head of the Wei family is not in Yongxian all year round, right? ”
“The county is wise!”
Wei Jun couldn’t help but be surprised, and nodded again and again: “After all, peach is a rare thing, where can ordinary people afford to enjoy it, these things are naturally supplied to the Luoyang magnates.” ”
“Nine times out of ten, our Wei family’s business is dealing with Luoyang magnates, in addition to this peach, there are also spices, pomegranates, courgettes, walnuts and other things.”
Really!
It was really guessed by Wang Hao.
Wang Hao took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: “Since there are peach, I think you should also make wine, right?” Do you think that my Wang Hao is not worthy of drinking wine, so I hide it and don’t take it out? ”
“How dare you!”
“How dare you!”
Wei Jun hurriedly bowed and apologized.
But at the same time, he was horrified.
You know, wine is such a thing, only popular among dignitaries.
And the yield is very low, ordinary people can’t drink a sip at all, but Wang Hao is from a brave background, and he even knows wine.
At this moment, Wei Jun really did not dare to underestimate Wang Hao, and became more and more respectful:
“It’s not a secret!”
Wei Jun honestly explained: “We only provide peach in Yong County, and as for the wine production, it is carried out in Luoyang, and it is not our Wei family that is responsible!” ”
“Oh?”
Wang Hao couldn’t help but be curious: “You Wei Jiaran are not responsible for making wine?” ”
Wei Jun exhaled a turbid breath: “In fact, the family owner has tried it before, but the wine we made is really too difficult to drink, not only waste peach, but also no one buys it at all, it is in order to fake the hands of others and benefit each other!” ”
“So it is!”
Wang Hao let out a long breath.
Suddenly!
A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.
