Song Huiyue stopped laughing horribly at Niu Niu and took the account book from He Jianghuai and looked through it carefully.
After the bartender came and laid out the food and drinks, she finished reading and handed the account book to Li Jun: "Not bad."
He Jianghuai took out another box of silver notes and handed them to Song Huiyue respectfully: "This is the income of Jiaozi's shop, eight thousand taels."
Song Huiyue took the box and was a little surprised: "So few?"
Li Jun also looked up from the account book: "It's indeed a small amount. It's impossible for the Wan family to have only this amount of silver in circulation."
He Jianghuai quickly explained: "As soon as Wanjia's Jiaozi shop opened, the Jiaozi shop in Shuzhong got the news. Without saying anything, they lowered the interest rate to even lower than that of Guanjiaozi. Mr. Wan handed over the post several times.
, saying that there is money to be earned together, so there is no need to lose money, and no one in Shu shows his face."
Song Huiyue raised her chopsticks, picked up a piece of tofu, and then pressed the chopsticks down: "What next?"
She moved her chopsticks, and Li Jun stood up slowly and poured a glass of wine. Tian Jiguang was feeding Niu Niu cakes. When he saw Li Jun pouring the wine for him in person, he was frightened and stood up quickly. Just as he was about to say thank you, Li Jun stretched out his fingers and made a
With a silent gesture, he told him not to disturb Song Huiyue and He Jianghuai's conversation, and pointed at Niu Niu, asking him to just take care of Niu Niu.
Tian Jiguang could only sit down in panic and continue to feed and drink Niuniu.
He Jianghuai continued: "The Wan family behaves with courtesy first and then the soldiers. They have to salute several times. After the salutes, the soldiers are not polite. Although the young master Wan loves to have fun, he is also not confused when doing things. He directly slaps Jiaozi's shop owner.
If it becomes a penny, it will not count if it is reduced to a penny. During the holidays, gifts are given."
Song Huiyue nodded: "How about Shuzhong? One penny and a loss-making business are not enough for them to live in Zhending."
"There are no rules in Sichuan. The young master there brought seven or eight strong men and broke into Jiaozi's shop directly. He claimed that the people who came to exchange money were doing private business and wanted to take him to the official Jiaozi shop.
Mr. Wan made a move, and I kept an eye on him."
Song Huiyue remembered Wan Yunjun's way of waving a fan in the cold weather, and immediately shuddered, picked up the wine glass and congratulated Jianghuai: "Thank you for your hard work."
He Jianghuai stood up in fear: "I don't dare to take it. It's all thanks to the lady that we have such a good life as today."
He drank the wine in one sip, and Li Jun had already picked up the jug and filled it for him: "Old He, when will Shuzhong evacuate? Eight thousand taels will not work."
He Jianghuai and Li Jun also had a drink, sat down and said: "Master Wan said we will see the results before and after the Dragon Boat Festival, but I think, if nothing else, the people in Shu are really stubborn, and they will do business even if they lose money.
It’s clear that we want to squeeze thousands of families to death.”
Around the time of the Dragon Boat Festival, the snow melts in the two states, which is when personal discussions begin to come and go frequently. If the problem is not resolved by then, it will be a big loss.
Song Huiyue frowned: "The Wan family is so big that things tend to be procrastinating. It's right to be courteous first and then to fight. But since you have taken action, you should be more decisive. After you go back, go there in person and bring twenty strong men with you.
The Jiaozi shop in Shuzhong was blocked, and when anyone saw it, they would say it was a private matter, and they would be sent to the official Jiaoziwu, and they would be asked to leave Zhending before the end of March."
"Yes." He Jianghuai nodded.
Song Huiyue took a chopstick and ate the fat goose: "How is Dingzhou City?"
He Jianghuai picked up the wine glass: "The Hu family and the Huang family have completely become one."
Li Jun gnawed on the pickled elbow: "Hu Jinyu is not a weak and incompetent person. It was only a matter of time before he took action. But I didn't expect him to eat up the Huang family so quickly."
He Jianghuai scratched his head: "That's not true."
He took a sip of wine and said awkwardly: "Hu Jinyu married Huang Yihui."
Li Jun's eyes widened, suspecting that he had passed out after just a few glasses of wine, otherwise how could he have heard this strange thing.
Song Huiyue said from the side: "Huang Yihui is not bad, he can control all the Huang family, big and small, but the two families are merged into one, probably to reassure each other and go to the Zhao family together."
She grinned: "Besides, if you are older, you will hurt people."
Yin Xiao nodded silently from the side.
Tian Jiguang glanced at Yin Xiao secretly, and then sneered in his heart, and Yin Xiao seemed to hear his sneer and raised his eyes to look at him.
He trembled with fright and quickly fed Niu Niu custard.
Niu Niu received meticulous care. She neither cried nor fussed. She ate and played with Huang Pang attentively.
He Jianghuai nodded: "That should be it. Everything is peaceful in the field and the war has stopped now."
Song Huiyue asked him again: "How many people did you bring here?"
He Jianghuai thought carefully: "Twelve."
Song Huiyue said: "Xiao Tian will stay in Kyoto to help me for a while, and you take Niuniu back to Dingzhou first."
Before He Jianghuai could answer, Tian Jiguang had already excitedly said: "Yes."
At this point, Song Huiyue stopped asking any more questions and motioned for everyone to eat and drink.
Although Li Jun and Yin Xiao had already eaten one round, their stomachs seemed to be bottomless pits. They sat one on the left and the other on the right chewing, in a posture that could eat the whole table.
He Jianghuai had been thinking about it on the way because he wanted to talk to Song Huiyue. Now that he had finished talking and everything had settled down, he felt hungry, so he picked up chopsticks and ate, and drank a few drinks with Li Jun in between.
A cup of Song Huiyue.
Tian Jiguang took some time to eat the food while he was busy, and while Yin Xiao was munching on it, he and Song Huiyue had three drinks.
Niu Niu looked away from Huang Pang and looked at the wine glass, wanting to take a sip. Tian Jiguang quickly took the wine glass away, but Niu Niu couldn't get it. She lowered her head and took a bite from the table angrily.
The group of people all laughed. When Niu Niu heard the laughter, she also giggled. She thought that she was chewing well and right, so she lowered her head and chewed twice more with saliva.
Tian Jiguang quickly stopped her mouth to prevent her from hurting her teeth.
Li Jun went out to ask the bartender for a bowl of lychee water, poured it into a wine glass, and let Niu Niu drink it. Niu Niu danced happily, followed Tian Jiguang's example and took a sip, then opened her mouth wide and took a long breath.
Everyone at the table fell down laughing.
After eating happily for a long time, Niu Niu yawned and started to crawl on Tian Jiguang's body.
Tian Jiguang was about to coax her to sleep when he heard a sudden noise from behind.
Song Huiyue opened the window and took a look. Behind her was a private prostitute's house with a Yanyue sign and a gardenia lamp. A man ran out from inside, wearing only a single suit and bare feet. He was almost drunk.
The girls were pulling and pulling around him, trying to get him back.
Tian Jiguang stood up, stretched his neck and took a look: "Isn't he cold?"
Li Jun stepped forward, closed the window, and sat back in his chair: "People who eat cold food powder are not afraid of the cold, they are only afraid of the heat. Everything they eat and drink must be cold."
Tian Jiguang clicked his tongue twice: "What are you doing eating that thing?"
"To add to the fun," Li Jun said casually, "it can also turn white, very white."
Song Huiyue's heart moved, and she remembered something. What Li Jun was still saying to them, she didn't hear at all.
She didn't come back to her senses until Li Jun called her three times.
It's time to disperse.
She stood up and walked to Niu Niu, trying to smile kindly to Niu Niu, then stretched out her hands, squeezed Niu Niu's little hand, and patted Niu Niu on the shoulder: "Be good."
Li Jun made a face at Niu Niu: "Your mother is going to eat you."
