Chapter 20: Playboys also have troubles

Yang Xiu returned to Yang's mansion with a dark face, looking murderous intent that he would not be close to him.

Even his favorite concubine came up to please him, but he kicked her eight feet away.

He himself knew that since his father lost power in the salt field, although those friends who had been circling around him had not said it on the surface, their inner attitudes had quietly changed.

The playboy is cold and Yang Xiu knows this well when he urinates. He admits that he is also such a person, so he has been spending a lot of money these days, which is enough to maintain the fragile network of relationships around him.

Today's fight with Jiang Liu is not a whim, but a plan has been planned.

He originally wanted to use this matter to explain to everyone that I, Yang Xiu, can still fight Jiang Liu, but my Yang family is just temporarily losing power, but I can still be on par with the Jiang family!

Unfortunately, it was a complete failure.

And he was defeated by money, something he never lacked.

Will the salt merchants actually lack money?

This is really a great humiliation!

Yang Xiu had already noticed at this time that if he went out tomorrow, what attitude would the playboys in Zhanying City treat him?

It is best to squeeze yourself out of the circle, and you may even treat yourself as a target of mockery.

Taking advantage of the situation has always been the masterpiece of the playboys and they are also the best at the housekeeper's ability.

Yang Xiu took twice a deep breath and walked into his father's guest room, wanting to go to his father to discuss countermeasures.

But as soon as I entered the guest room, I saw a pungent smell of wine coming to my face. The smell of wine was so strong that Yang Xiu immediately began to cough unstoppably.

Looking at his father who was slumped on the Grand Master's chair like mud, Yang Xiu's anger suddenly erupted.

"You are still drinking?! Why are you still drinking?! Do you know that our Yang family's business is almost eaten up by his Jiang family!"

The father opened his hazy eyes and laughed: "Have you eaten it all? Then let them eat it."

"You...how could you say such a confused thing!"

"Son, I knew from the beginning that we... we couldn't beat that old guy Jiang Sanshi, your father... your father was blinded by lard, so he dared to deduct his money. Now... now this is retribution."

Yang Xiu widened her eyes incredibly: "You... are you going to give up?"

"What else can you do if you don't admit defeat? Haha, your arm can't twist your thighs, but don't worry, I'll save you three thousand taels of silver. Even if our Yang family is defeated, you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life..."

Yang Xiu snatched his father's glass and threw it hard on the ground. With a clang, the best spring peach wine scattered on the luxurious carpet.

Yang Xiu almost roared: "I don't care about the bullshit three thousand taels! If you want to admit defeat, you will admit defeat, I won't admit it!"

Yang Xiu overturned the remaining soup on the round table and walked out of the door without looking back.

My father was still slumped on the Grand Master's chair, looking at the roof with his eyes blank, and sang slowly: "In an instant, all the emotions were lost... and the sour and bitter parts were penetrated and wet my clothes... I only thought that the iron wealth and honor were destined for a lifetime... Who knew that life was clear in a few moments..."

Yang Xiu, who stopped suddenly after walking out of the room, could hear his father's sad lyrics. He also knew that the energetic salt merchant's clothes no longer existed. In the future, the Yang family might really withdraw from Zhanying City step by step.

Suddenly, he continued to walk forward and shouted: "Give me the strongest wine!"

The concubine named Chuntao, who was kicked out by him just now, was a flower shop he just bought from the tram half a year ago. Although her appearance was only average, she was more considerate and able to serve others, so she was still favored by Yang Xiu on weekdays.

As soon as Yang Xiu came to his room to sit down, Chuntao personally pushed the door open with wine and meals.

As soon as the wine pot was put down, Yang Xiu picked it up and raised it to his mouth, pouring most of the half into his mouth in one breath.

The wine is really strong.

Yang Xiu even shed tears after choking.

Yang Xiu laughed wildly while drinking, without having to eat or speak.

Until a pot of wine was finished, Yang Xiucai smiled and said intermittently: "This person...hahaha... I really can't explain it clearly..."

Chuntao didn't follow suit, but just meticulously burned wine for Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu snatched the wine pot again and drank a big gulp again like drinking water.

"Dad is a bear... and a son is also a bear... Lao Yang's... two wine bags, hahaha..."

Just as Yang Xiu swallowed this big mouthful of liquor, the door was pushed open directly from the outside.

Yang Xiu was furious and was about to curse after a heavy wine pot.

But after seeing the person coming, Yang Xiu was dumbfounded and subconsciously swallowed all the swear words and drinks into her stomach.

Sun Su brought her entourage into the house and sat down opposite Yang Xiu, smiling: "Brother Yang, I'll drink to relieve my sorrows, but I feel even more worried."

Yang Xiu waved his hand, Chuntao put down the wine pot and gave a blessing, then quietly retreated and buttoned the door outside.

Yang Xiu smiled decadently: "Mr. Sun made a comeback to see me for a joke?"

Sun Su shook her head and said sincerely: "You and I are both people who are both sick and sympathetic who have just been humiliated by Jiang Liu today. How could I laugh at Mr. Yang?"

Yang Xiu raised his head and exhaled a sip of wine: "The Yang family is now a defeated phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken. No matter what Mr. Sun comes, I am afraid he will disappoint you."

"Before I came, I must have known the current situation of the Yang family, even better than you, but I still stepped into the Yang family. That's because I have something to discuss with the Yang family."

"My father is in the main hall. I am reluctant to drink and cannot lead Mr. Sun over."

"No, no, no, I'm not here to Mr. Yang. I'm here to find Mr. Yang. Only Mr. Yang can do these things."

Yang Xiu was shocked and woke up at least half of his drunkenness. He stared at Sun Su with wide eyes. Sun Su smiled and nodded: "Why don't Mr. Yang wash his face? Then let's talk in detail?"

"You are so rude to Mr. Sun, please allow me for a moment, and go back." Yang Xiu stood up and bowed. After getting Sun Su's approval, he quickly walked out of the door.

After Yang Xiu left, the smile on Sun Su's face disappeared and asked softly to the thin and pale entourage behind him, "Yujie, do you think Yang Xiu will go to find his father?"

The entourage known as the Jade Step shook his head without hesitation: "Under the secret instruction of the Sun family, the Yang family was defeated. Yang Xiu's father was discouraged and drank his sorrows every day. Yang Xiu may hesitate when he goes out, but he will definitely come in again in the end."

Sun Su nodded with confidence: "I believe in the judgment of Yujie. If we can convince Yang Xiu to join, then we will have a little more confidence in our major affairs."

Yu Jie smiled softly: "We secretly cooperated with the Jiang family to suppress the Yang family, isn't it just for this day? The last clear path that Yang Xiu left now is to cooperate with the young master. This is a conspiracy. He has to choose, and he has to choose even if he doesn't choose. As long as Yang Xiu joins in, we will be more sure; if he loses, we have a scapegoat, so that no matter what, the young master will be found."

Sun Su laughed happily: "In the past, King Wu of Zhou had Weixiong, and King Liang had Li Qing, and I had jade steps, so I was not far behind."

Yu Jie just smiled humbly, but never said humbly.

A quarter of an hour later, Yang Xiu pushed the door open and entered.

At this time, the water marks on Yang Xiu's face were not dry. I don't know whether it was coming and going in a hurry or deliberately leaving the impression of Sun Su washing her face.

Sun Su smiled and nodded: "Please sit down by Mr. Yang."

At this time, Yang Xiu had already woken up completely. After sitting down, he spoke softly: "I accidentally heard from the servants that Mr. Sun entered my Yang Mansion from the side door. It seems that Mr. Sun came here sincerely today. My Yang Xiu would not go around in circles. Today, I said straight away that there are not many left in my Yang family at this time, but if Mr. Sun is willing, no matter what he needs, he only needs one sentence, and you can take it away."

Sun Su's eyes lit up: "Young Master Yang is quick and easy, so I will speak out loud. Young Master Yang should know that my uncle will have four days to return to Zhanying City. These four days are the opportunity my uncle will leave me."

"Opportunity? What opportunity?"

"An opportunity to rectify the salt merchants in Zhanying City!" Sun Su lowered his voice and his eyes were bright. "In Zhanying City, private salt merchants are rampant. On the surface, those salt merchants said they were working for Daqian, but they often sent inferior salt to the court as official salt for sale. Good salt was left to stock up as private salt. In recent years, the donation of salt merchants has decreased day by day, and the court was extremely dissatisfied with this. But Brother Yang must also know that my uncle had a complicated relationship with the salt merchants in Zhanying City.... It was a bad idea to ask him to take action. All of this burden fell on Sun."

Yang Xiu took a deep breath, because of his turbulence, and his tone was trembling: "So... Zhanying City is really going to change!"

Sun Su nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it's like playing the Leaf Card. The people sitting on the table have already earned their purses. Now it's time for them to end up and reshuffle them. If they don't want to come down, Sun will have to ask them to come down in person and give way to the later generations, such as... the Yang family."

"Mr. Sun is responsible for cutting the mess quickly. After Lord Sun comes back, he is responsible for appeasement and rehabilitation. He is a two-pronged approach. It seems that the major changes in Zhanying City are inevitable."

"If this happens, my Sun family will be appreciated by the court and take a step forward; and the Yang family can also get a good handful of cards from this game. This is a win-win cooperation, Brother Yang."

"The relationship between salt merchants in Zhanying City is complicated. Where does Mr. Sun want to start?"

"My uncle has given a warning here, and the first one is the Jiang, Li and Du families. Today, I am in the Spring Breeze Ferry. In fact, I did it on purpose. The purpose is to send a signal to Zhanying City, so that the villains at both ends of the snake and rat will find their boss in this reshuffle."

"First remove its wings, then move its root?"

Sun Su slapped her thigh: "That's true!"

Yang Xiu pondered for a moment, bowed and said in a deep voice: "Yang Xiu swore again that the Yang family would like to follow the leader of Mr. Sun. What should we do? Please tell me."

Sun Su smiled slightly and asked softly: "How much cash can you use now?"

Yang Xiu gritted his teeth: "If you sell iron, you can get 20,000 taels of silver notes."
