Yiqiu brought warm chicken soup to the door. The door was ajar, and the people inside were making a lot of noise.
Hearing a knock on the door, Zhao Ning's voice came: "Come in."
Only then did Yiqiu push the door open.
There were thirteen people in the house, and the spacious room became extremely crowded.
The person who came was just a little girl, so the people in the room continued the conversation.
Zhao Hui was so angry that her face turned blue: "Your money is dirty! When you first came to the capital, where did the millions of taels of silver in your hand come from? Do you dare to say that it was not taken by my Zhao family?"
Zhao Ning was sitting by the window, reading his account books, and the chicken soup that Yi Qiu had just put down gave off a strong fragrance.
"I call you aunt, that's just to be polite! You took so much money from our Zhao family to show off in the capital, and now you want to send people back to Huzhou to deal with us? Zhao Ning, you are no longer a human being!" Zhao Hui continued
Cursed.
Yiqiu was frightened by her, did not dare to stay longer, and left in a hurry.
"Miss Zhao is not yet twenty, so it's better to be polite," Manager Chu said.
Because this is a matter of the Zhao family, and I really don’t understand the ins and outs, Manager Chu, who is usually sharp-tongued, does not have the confidence to speak now.
"I want you to argue!" Zhao Hui pointed a finger, "Who are you? Without my Zhao family's money, you are nothing!"
Zhao Hui's husband, Cai Pengyi, sat aside and didn't say much, looking coldly at Zhao Ning, who was silent.
Zhao Yan and Sizhu were also there. Zhao Yan held the handkerchief in her hand, because Zhao Hui had already scolded her everything she needed to, and she had nothing to say.
"Are you planning to remain mute forever?" Zhao Hui said again, "Zhao Ning, I'm talking to you! If your fucking mouth leaks, you can't speak, or if you do all the immoral things, God will kill your throat.
It’s so poisonous!”
The person who answered her was Zhao Ning who calmly turned a page of the account book with a somewhat lukewarm movement.
"Miss Zhao, pay attention to your words," Manager Chu said angrily, "What are you talking about!"
Zhao Hui grabbed the cup on the side and threw it at Manager Chu: "Shut up!"
After Zhao Hui's mother, Lin, gave birth to Zhao Hui and Zhao Yan, she was afraid that her adoptive father Zhao Li, who liked to take charge of others, would scold her for being a loser, so after Zhao Yan was born, she began to treat her eldest daughter Zhao
Hui was raised as a son, so that Zhao Li's wife and concubine would give birth to a son, and his own daughter would suffer a great loss.
Therefore, Zhao Hui, who had been managing the winery with Mr. Lin for a long time, was rude and arrogant when he cursed people.
Manager Chu, who was hit by the cup, looked at Zhao Ning and said angrily: "My boss!"
Only then did Zhao Ning finally raise his head and look directly at Zhao Hui, whose eyebrows were raised: "What did Lin tell you?"
"Three million taels," Zhao Hui spread her hands, "You took three million taels from my Zhao family!"
"Wrong," Zhao Ning said, "it's five million taels."
Manager Chu was stunned. This money was really taken from someone else.
"Okay," Zhao Hui gritted her teeth, "Five million taels, you give it back to us!"
"No." Zhao Ning looked at her.
"It's okay not to pay it back! All your properties in the capital are now ours!" Zhao Hui looked at Manager Chu, "You must know her accounts best, right? Has she purchased a lot of grain in the past six months?
And tea, and silk cloth?!"
"That belongs to our boss." Manager Chu said.
"You fart, you belong to our Zhao family!"
"It's just five million taels," Manager Chu didn't know whether he was angry or laughing, "It's nothing in the eyes of our boss. Our boss can earn more than this five hundred taels a month."
"Yu Ming!" Zhao Hui looked at the maid who was coming behind her. She looked a bit older.
Yuming stepped forward: "Miss."
"Go," Zhao Hui said, "call the few accountants we brought and call all our outside staff. We will take over this place now!"
"That's not necessary," Cai Pengyi, who had been silent since entering, finally said, "Now that the capital is in such chaos, it depends on whether we can take over these industries or not. Let's do this, aunt." Cai Pengyi looked at Zhao Ning, "Those things you brought here
Grain and flour, where are they?"
"I have given you food, but do you still care about the industries in the capital?" Zhao Ning asked, his face always calm, without any emotion or anger.
"What do you think!" Zhao Hui scolded angrily, "You are so shameless that you dare to take other people's things! Your hands are so long, why didn't you die there in Zhongyi! Of course you gave them all back to us!"
At this time, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside.
The person who came in was shopkeeper Cheng. He walked directly to Zhao Ning, bowed his head and said, "My boss, little girl Ali is here!"
Zhao Ning, who had not seen a soft expression in a few days, showed a warm smile: "Ah Li?"
"Yes, I said I'm here to stay for a few nights."
"Let me clean the wing and prepare some good wine and food."
"yes."
Shopkeeper Cheng was about to leave, but glanced at the people in the room: "They..."
"It's okay." Zhao Ning said.
Shopkeeper Cheng nodded and left the room.
There were still many shopkeepers coming to do business in the lobby downstairs, but the noise gradually stopped after the girl came in.
A strong man followed the girl, and another strong man led three horses outside.
Everyone's eyes were on her. There was a wanted order earlier, and when she stopped the emperor's chariot more than a month ago, many people were still present.
She seems to have grown a bit taller, with a tall and straight body, slender shoulders and slim neck, just like a little girl.
Not long after, shopkeeper Cheng came down and cordially led them to the backyard. At the same time, he sent someone to take the three horses outside to the stables for feeding.
"Where is Zhao Ning?" Xia Zhaoyi asked, following behind Shopkeeper Cheng.
"We are receiving guests upstairs!" After saying this, he felt that he did not look like a guest, so he added, "It seems that they are relatives from Huzhou. They are coming in a menacing way. They are quarreling up there. It's terrible."
"Can you handle it?" Xia Zhaoyi asked.
"It's possible," Shopkeeper Cheng said with a smile, "I've never seen my boss in any situation, and I've never seen her embarrassed when something happened. These people are not worthy of mentioning."
There are several side rooms in the backyard on the first floor, which are clean and bright. Shopkeeper Cheng led them there, and then called the maid in the backyard to take care of it a little and prepare a table of wine and food for them.
Lao Tong and Zhi Changle were starving to death, but after following Xia Zhaoyi for a long time, they felt embarrassed to eat ravenously, so they tried to eat as slowly as she did.
After eating, Lao Tong held his stomach and went to find the hut. Xia Zhaoyi planned to go upstairs to see Zhao Ning, and Zhi Changle followed her.
Going up the stairs to the jogging platform, I heard the sound of things being thrown and loud curses coming from upstairs.
"The fight started!" Zhi Changle was startled.
A figure was waiting at the stairs, it was Manager Chu who was sent out by Zhao Ning.
"Manager Chu is a good man." Xia Zhaoyi recognized him.
"Miss Ali, our boss specially asked me to wait for you here," Manager Chu said, "Don't go over there yet. There is a quarrel inside. It's their Zhao family's business."
