Now that the city gate is closed, it is past lunch time in the afternoon, and there are only a few diners in the Zhuji main store. On the second floor, when Nie Yunzhu asked this question, Ning Yi was stunned. The woman sat down in front and stretched out her hand to caress
He stroked his hair and smiled slightly: "A few days ago, I heard about the Su family. It was said that... the master of the Su family was assassinated. At that time, I heard that the young lady and uncle of the Su family were also there, so I have been here for the past few days.
I was thinking, you should be fine..."
There are many wealthy businessmen in Jiangning, and all walks of life are quite developed. Although the Su family has a prominent position in Buhang, the atmosphere is tense these days. There has been an assassination, and others have not had the chance to hear too much. After all, it has nothing to do with them. Even if it is
Thousands of years after the development of information, ordinary people could not hear about a businessman being robbed at any time. Nie Yunzhu had already taken a liking to the Su family at this time, so he heard about it during conversations with people. In the past few days,
Not seeing Ning Yi every day made her feel uneasy, fearing that something would happen to him if he was affected.
Ning Yi listened to what she said and nodded: "Well, I'm fine, but... my family is also quite nervous, so I've been involved in it these past few days and have been busy."
After hearing his confirmation that everything was okay, Nie Yunzhu put down his worried expression and smiled again: "Master Su...are you okay?"
"I have just escaped from life-threatening danger. I am paralyzed. I won't be able to walk in the future. It's really good. I'm afraid it will take several months." Ning Yi took a bite of the food and shook his head, but his words were still casual, "It's still confidential now, I don't dare.
Talk outside."
"Huh? Why?"
"The person who committed the assassination was caught. Now in the Yamen, he insists that it was the Su family who caused the death of his family first... There is someone behind the scenes. After all, whether the victim is alive or dead will also affect the verdict in the end, so let's delay for a few days.
, it’s hard to say how long it can be delayed..."
"Is someone... trying to frame the Su family?" Nie Yunzhu's eyes widened.
Ning Yi smiled and explained what happened this time casually. Except for sighing about his father-in-law's injury, the rest of his description was indifferent. This was generally the same atmosphere when chatting with Nie Yunzhu in the past.
, but this time Nie Yunzhu became worried again, and then thought in his heart that such things would not affect him as a married woman. After a moment, he casually asked: "Then... can that girl Tan'er in your family do?
Can you handle this situation?"
"She happened to catch a cold and fell ill." Ning Yi sighed, "So I'm helping out recently."
"Uh..." Nie Yunzhu asked casually, but at this time he was stunned. He didn't know what kind of expression he should show. In the end, he repeated: "Are you okay?" I don't know if he was asking Su Tan'er.
The situation is still Ning Yi's.
"It's okay. Just rest for a while. There are also reasons such as too much pressure. In short, it will be fine for a while to recuperate."
After a few greetings like this, Nie Yunzhu laughed: "So, Li Heng has been taking care of the Su family's business recently?" In the past, she felt that Ning Yi had talent but could not extend it, and Zhu Ji was also under his guidance.
It worked very well. This time I finally had this opportunity. As a friend, I would naturally be happy for it.
Ning Yi shook his head with a smile: "Well, not really, it's just that the Su family's business must have such a person now. I don't know much about specific projects. I've been messing around with people in the past few days. By the way, before.
Something happened two days ago. I used the incense and camphor that I put in when I was storing fabrics as dyeing raw materials. I told them not to waste them and put them all away. Haha, I almost laughed to death..."
Ning Yi was telling his jokes while eating. Nie Yunzhu listened to half of it and didn't know what kind of expression he should show. He laughed angrily: "Li Heng did it on purpose, right?"
"Well, of course, I'm so powerful, how could something like that happen to me, right?" Ning Yi blinked, "They don't even know that I deliberately teased them, well, don't tell anyone about this...
…”
"I don't believe you when you say that." Nie Yunzhu smiled and frowned, "But since Li Heng has come forward, there will definitely be no problem, right?"
"Haha, maybe. Anyway, I will probably be wandering outside in the past few days, and go to check out the shops in the morning... Well, I have to check out several shops now, which are bigger than yours. At noon or afternoon
Maybe come over for a meal, there isn’t much business to do, the shopkeepers are all smart and don’t need me to teach them what to do, so in two days, I’ll find time to accompany you to meet Mr. Qin... I had already agreed, but
I didn’t have time a few days ago, so I wanted to come over and apologize today.”
Nie Yunzhu looked at him, then pursed his lips: "If Li Heng is very busy now, there is no need to rush to find time for this matter..."
"I'm not busy, nothing happened." Ning Yi regained his composure, shook his head and took a mouthful of rice, "The Su family's problem is not big, and it is not troublesome to solve it. There are people with half a foot in the hole, and I am only responsible for digging the hole bigger.
, just wait until someone else falls and then see who is in the pit."
He was in a relaxed mood, just like he was running and chatting in the past, and then smiled and talked about some of the little things he had seen in the cloth shop in the past few days. Yunzhu dragged his chin and listened across the dining table. When Ning Yi asked,
They also talked about the situation in the past few days after the city was closed. Although the atmosphere was tense and there were several incidents, large and small, in the city, overall, they did not encounter safety problems.
Ning Yi downplayed the affairs of the Su family and didn't mention much, so Yunzhu naturally didn't ask too many questions. But when Ning Yi left, she couldn't help but think about Ning Yi's style and performance when he formally controlled the Su family's business affairs.
, for her, once Ning Yi takes action, it will definitely make people look at him with admiration. In any case, as a friend, she likes to hear these things, just like when Mr. Qin praises Ning Yi, she often feels honored.
In the evening, Yuan Jin'er, who had gone to Yancui Tower to teach dance, came over. Hearing that Ning Yi had been here, he joked with a smile.
"Oh, it's finally here. Sister Yunzhu doesn't have to worry all day now."
When Nie Yunzhu mentioned the crisis in the Su family, Jin'er's eyes widened: "The wife in his family is so powerful, she has even fallen ill... How could Ning Yi do this..."
"I don't know. He didn't say much, but since Li Heng has come forward, there will definitely be no problem. And he also said just now that the problem is not big and he will solve it."
"If you're relieved." Jin'er gave a disapproving look, "There are specialties in the arts, Sister Yunzhu, I know them all. That Ning Yi... He is very powerful, but he can't know everything.
When it comes to business matters, I bet he can't compare to his wife!"
Jin'er made sense. Yunzhu thought about it and showed a slightly hesitant look. Yuan Jin'er looked at her and sat down next to her: "It's not our business anyway. We can't help this time. The Su family
There are so many people, and he is not allowed to stand out alone. He just needs someone who can stand in front of him. Don't worry... Well, let's do this. Tomorrow I will ask a few sisters who are familiar with the Su family to see what the Su family is like.
What happened..."
Although Yuan Jin'er redeemed herself, these relationships have not been severed for the time being, and she has been trying to attract business. The next afternoon, Ning Yi went to Zhuji for a meal and chatted with Yunzhu for a while.
Leave. Until that night, Jin'er and Yunzhu were on the bed talking about the information they had learned.
"Tsk, it turns out that the Su family wants to be an imperial merchant, and there has been a lot of commotion recently. Now the Xue family, the Wu family, the Chen family, and the Lu family all regard them as their opponents. Oh, and the Su family themselves are fighting among themselves.
But if it is really done, all these things will be solved easily... That Ning Liheng of yours, you are doing everything according to the nerd's method in this regard..."
"What about my Ning Liheng..."
"Then let's go to someone else's Ning Liheng. Okay. He wanted to see Mr. He Fanghe in the past two days, but he didn't try to find connections - although connections were useless. But anyway, he went directly to ask for a meeting. Yesterday,
Today, he bothered the concierge for more than an hour before leaving. He was really persistent. I heard that he would go there tomorrow. In just two days, everyone in the shop was spreading the word... I guess he planned to go there for an hour every day.
, waited until Master Nahe saw him. How stupid, doesn’t he have a relationship with that prince-consort? Just talk about it a little..."
"If you use other people's connections to do what you can do, you will be looked down upon in the future."
"Hey, anyway... such a stupid person, you can't tell that he is so stupid when we are arguing..."
The two of them were lying on the bed wearing small clothes, and Nie Yunzhu laughed: "This is called being principled, not stupid. Mr. He will have to meet him sooner or later. You are always thinking about finding a relationship..."
"Hmph, if he wasn't Ning Liheng, Sister Yunzhu, you would also say he's stupid! And even if you see him and he's unhappy, you can't convince him. In the end, it's still useful if you have a relationship. Otherwise, let's make a bet!
"
"If you don't bet on this, I bet that Li Heng will definitely solve this matter."
"Okay, then I...then I bet that he can't solve it!" Jin'er thought for a while, and then suddenly laughed narrowly, "What's the bet? I thought of it. If he can't solve it, I win, Yunzhu
Sister, you have to confess to Ning Yi that you like him!"
"I, I don't have...that..." In the dim light, Yunzhu's face suddenly became hot. She turned her head and looked at Yuan Jin'er over there. Jin'er raised her chin slightly and blinked provocatively.
Eyes, the two looked at each other for a moment, Yunzhu frowned in embarrassment - she actually didn't like Jin'er always making fun of this, so she took a deep breath and said, "What about you? If Li Heng solves the problem
Woolen cloth?"
"Then he is so powerful. Sister Yunzhu and I like him together and will not speak ill of him in the future." This was obviously Jin'er's mischievous attack. She was slightly proud and still looked at Yunzhu next to her with her chin raised. Yunzhu
His eyes widened, and then he turned his head and looked at the top of the mosquito net. After a long while, he said word by word: "It's a bet!"
"Hey..." Jin'er's arrogance faded away, and the bed was quiet for a moment. She leaned towards Yunzhu, and Yunzhu moved outside. She leaned over again, and Yunzhu laughed, but also sighed.
Her tone: "It's impossible, go away! You hate..." She stretched out her hand to push the shameless Jin'er, "You just love to mess around!"
"I'm kidding you, Sister Yunzhu, you can really bet..." Jin'er huddled up and hummed a few times, "Whether you win or lose, aren't you letting that Ning Yi take advantage? I don't want that.
Put yourself in..."
"Whether we win or lose, how can we talk about it? How can we get along with each other after we talk about it...Who do we think Li Heng is?"
"All men like him...and I think Sister Yunzhu, you really like him. If you keep looking at him like this, I will feel anxious sometimes..."
"I..." Yunzhu thought for a while, then looked at the mosquito net and sighed.
"What's wrong?"
"I……"
"..."
"...I do like him."
After a long time, Yunzhu said this with mixed emotions. Jin'er looked there silently, then stretched out his hands to make a cross: "Okay, I'm just kidding, it's invalid..."
Yunzhu also stretched out his hands and crossed them in the air, then scratched Jin'er's nose with one hand. Jin'er leaned in with a smile. The room became quiet. After a while, the rustling sounds started again.
, Jin'er shamelessly leaned over again, reached out and hugged one of Yunzhu's hands: "Sister Yunzhu, what I asked you just now..."
"Um?"
"Although I think it's unlikely, I also hope that Ning Yi can really do it, because we are people we know. But I know that Sister Yunzhu, you want to be on his side, so I have to stand on the other side.
Well, Jin'er let you..."
"knew."
"But I still think he can't do it..."
"..."
The atmosphere dropped, and there was a slight silence in the bedroom...
While Nie Yunzhu and Yuan Jin'er were watching Ning Yi's movements, there were many others watching what was going on here. Ning Yi was not the real key point, and no one would believe that he was really useful. However, when
Su Tan'er fell silent behind the incident. Any clues about the Su family's decision-making must be found from Ning Yi.
He made some mistakes in the cloth shop, which is not important. At most, it adds some jokes. But after the jokes, the shopkeepers meticulously worked to build momentum for the imperial merchants. This was naturally Su Tan'er's true intention.
And when Ning Yi suddenly ran to visit Lord He Fang of the Weaving Bureau, although it seemed nonsensical and was rejected, people like Xue Yan and Xue Jin were also alert and watched to see if he could make any progress.
, or pay attention to the movements of the Su family after this, and look for Su Tan'er's true meaning.
Not only opponents like the Xue family, but even in the Su Mansion system, many shopkeepers like Xi Junyu can't quite understand the situation in front of them. They don't understand why Ning Yi suddenly takes a liking to He Fang because of his bookishness.
I really thought that I could convince the other person just by seeing him, or was there Su Tan'er's will manipulation behind it, with a deeper intention.
"What on earth are you going to do..." On the night when Ning Yi was rejected at He Mansion for the second time, Xi Junyu and an acquaintance of the shopkeeper were drinking and chatting about this in his yard. Regarding Ning Yi's
Although he shook his head and smiled, he really couldn't guess Su Tan'er's intentions this time with Ning Yi disrupting the situation.
"Perhaps what I did was just a smoke screen. For example, using incense as dye was harmless. But going to Lord He's mansion this time was really reckless. It doesn't matter if there is no progress. I'm just afraid of offending Lord He, which would be troublesome.
…”
"Well, let's just assume that there is the second lady's instruction and thoughts behind it. As for you and me... we only care about the imperial business for the time being, that's all. Anyway... he is a scholar and has made a decision. It's not easy for you and me to tell you what to do.
…”
At the same time, there were some people on the other side of Jiang Ning who were simply watching Ning Yi's actions. As for Su Tan'er, Su Yu and the like, they probably couldn't put them in their eyes.
"I've been rejected for two days, do you want to go back tomorrow?" In the pavilion of the Prince Consort's Mansion, Kang Xian listened to Lu Agui's report and laughed, "What does this kid want to do? Is it possible for him to do it?"
Do you really think you can convince that He Fang just by seeing him?"
On the side, a pair of young ladies who had recently overheard these things and became concerned about them exchanged glances and ran to the side to whisper...
*************
***1: Last night, when I was coding until 11 o'clock, I thought I should post a notice, but I couldn't be sure... Sometimes I can be sure whether this chapter can be coded, and sometimes not. If it can be coded,
I didn’t know when it would be, so I continued coding and gave up at four in the morning, but there was no point in posting a notice at this time. Well, this is the reason why I didn’t post a notice yesterday. I’m sorry.
***2: It seems that many people said that the author made a mistake and failed to portray a businessman well... I did not want to portray him through him running into a store and giving some advice and saying a few words.
He's a businessman... What is Ning Yi doing? Why is he doing it? Let's read on. I only confirm one thing. There is no mistake on my part here. Originally, the author shouldn't say these things, but some people because of the plot development and imagination
Different, just say, "The author here must have wanted to portray a big businessman, but I don't have such a feeling, so it must be that the author has no experience and experience, and the author failed. If it were me, I would behave like this..."
But in fact, I didn't plan to shape it like this at all. It's like every time I'm wiring, someone tells me that you shouldn't lay it out like this. You don't need it here, because everyone will have a set outline in their minds. This makes people very helpless.
.
I will be responsible for making an outline look great when it is rounded up. As for what Ning Yi is going to do, you might as well guess... ^_^
