In the evening, Chu Yiqing checked A Bao's homework and played with building blocks with him. Ying Run went into the house, took off all the sheets and quilts on the kang, replaced them with new ones, and put Chu Yiqing and A Bao together.
Put the changed clothes aside, ready to go out to wash.
Chu Yiqing raised his head and glanced at her, seeing that she was doing the same work that Yingqian usually did, and he knew that she had something to say, but she chose not to ask, holding it back.
Yingqian came in and reported in a low voice: "Miss, I have visited the fish shed and chicken shed and checked them according to the lady's instructions. At the moment, both Dian Dou and Zhao Di are guarding there, there is nothing wrong!
"
Chu Yiqing nodded, "The golden chicken has just been launched. In the future, we will need a lot of chickens, fish, and large-scale production. If they do a good job with all their heart, I will not treat them badly!"
Yingrun quickly took over the conversation and said: "Miss is kind and generous to others. Being able to follow her is a blessing that I have earned over many lifetimes!"
Chu Yiqing saw that Yingrun kept talking forward and deliberately said such nice things, so he couldn't help but joked: "Yingrun, are you here to plead for Shi Fifteen? It's Shi Shi who doesn't make progress, I
There is no way!"
Yingrun was stunned for a moment. After hearing Chu Yiqing's tone, she seemed to have decided that she had made great progress, and her little face couldn't help but twist into a knot of worry.
"Yingrun, Miss, you have been tired for a day, please let Miss have a rest! Miss asked Shi Shi to help in the shop, which can be considered as experience! You don't need to feel bad!" Ying Qian said in a low voice.
Yingrun was stunned, and couldn't help but blush on her face, and whispered: "Who feels sorry for him? I'm just afraid that he will say the wrong thing and offend the lady. I'm afraid that the lady will be angry. It's not worth getting so angry for a fool like him.
Woolen cloth!"
Chu Yiqing couldn't help laughing and said: "Fifteen is not a fool, he just hasn't turned his head around. Among these children, Fifteen is the youngest, the smartest and most loyal, and I want to reuse him."
He, but he can’t do anything if he doesn’t live up to expectations!”
When Yingrun saw Chu Yiqing smiling, she knew that she was not really angry. Maybe she was just exercising for fifteen years as her sister said, so she relaxed and sighed: "It's my fault that I'm reckless.
I thought the young lady was punishing him! This servant is really useless, unlike my elder sister, who is steady and considerate. The most important thing is to understand the young lady’s thoughts. It seems that I will learn a lot from my elder sister in the future!"
After hearing this, Yingqian looked at Yingrun with an encouraging smile.
Chu Yiqing pulled Yingrun over, patted her hand and said: "It's good that you know. In fact, in terms of intelligence, Yingqian is not as smart as you. As long as you are willing to learn from Yingqian, you will definitely be a good helper to me in the future!"
Yingrun nodded quickly: "I remember this, slave. I must learn from my sister well!"
"Okay, go and see if Mai Xiang needs your help. If there is Ying Qian here, it will be fine!" Chu Yiqing waved his hand and asked her to go down.
Yingrun quickly left.
Seeing Yingrun leaving, Yingqian stepped forward and saluted, "My sister has caused trouble for the young lady. This silly girl, ever since she identified herself as Fifteen, wished she could take care of everything about Fifteen, but she misunderstood what the young lady meant!"
"
"She didn't misunderstand everything. She also persuaded Young Master Shishi in the backyard just now!" Chu Yiqing smiled lightly, "With her here, Shishi should be able to make progress soon!"
"Really?" When Yingqian heard this, her face was filled with joy, "Yingrun did not disappoint me after all!"
"Anyway, you should teach her more in the future. Yingrun's character has not yet calmed down!" Chu Yiqing said slightly tiredly.
Seeing that Chu Yiqing was tired, Ying Qian quickly made the bed to help Chu Yiqing and A Bao sleep.
The next day, the snow on the ground began to melt, and my feet were covered in mud when I stepped out.
When Jin Yu came back from outside, she rubbed the mud on the stone steps and nagged Chu Yiqing: "This road is really difficult to walk, especially when it snows and rains. It's better for adults, but pity those people."
I saw a lot of kids who were going to school falling down just now at the door!"
Chu Yiqing came out of the house and looked at the sky. It had begun to clear up. This time the storm and snow should have passed. "When spring gets warmer next year, I plan to repair the roads in the village and make them all with stones."
Get up and dig drainage ditches beside the road, so you won’t have to worry about it even if it snows or rains!”
When Jin Yu heard this, he couldn't help but worry: "Oh, this costs a lot of money! And now the village chief of Uncle Fugui can just say a few words, no one can do this!"
Speaking of the village chief's matter, Chu Yiqing also said: "Indeed, it's been so long since that incident, why is there no news in the village?"
Jin Yu quickly whispered: "I heard it's because Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li don't get along. Mr. Zhang supports you, Brother Zhao, but Mr. Li supports Brother Li. No matter how you say it, there's a lot of fuss outside now!"
Jin Yu said, her face full of joy. Regardless of whether Zhao Xiaomai can become the village chief or not, being nominated is a great honor. She doesn't dare to think that one day she can become the village chief's wife!
"Brother Zhao and Brother Li?" Chu Yiqing pondered for a moment.
"By the way, sister, if you had to choose, who would you choose?" Jin Yu asked quickly.
Chu Yiqing smiled faintly: "Of course I choose Brother Zhao! Brother Zhao has experienced a lot these days, and he looks mature! Although Brother Li is also a down-to-earth person, the fish pond cannot be separated from him, but if the clan
The elders really want him to be the village chief. If he is willing, I can't stop him! After all, the village chief's position is very important to the villagers!"
Jin Yu nodded and said with a smile: "No, the village chief is also an official!"
While the two were talking, they heard someone knocking on the door outside, and Jin Yu quickly asked Li Zi to open the door.
"Miss Chu, madam, this is Grandpa Mu!" Lizi shouted, inviting someone to come in.
Chu Yiqing looked up and saw Mr. Mu and several respected elders from the village all here. As soon as they entered the yard, they looked around and talked in low voices.
"Grandpa Mu, Grandpa Zhang, and several other grandpas, how come you are free today?" Jin Yu hurriedly stepped forward to greet them. Chu Yiqing also stood at the door of the hall and greeted several clan elders.
Several clan elders felt happy when they saw that Chu Yiqing was still so humble and polite now that he was rich, so they entered the room and sat down while talking.
"Maixiang Niang, is Father Maixiang at home? We are here. We have some things to discuss with him!" Mr. Mu asked after sitting down.
Jin Yu quickly agreed: "At the moment, he is directing people to unload pig manure in the orchard behind. I will ask someone to call him right now!"
Mr. Mu nodded and led several clan elders into the house. Lizi quickly brought tea and cakes to entertain them.
The most respected clan elder in the village came, and Mrs. Huangfu hurriedly came out of the house to talk. Chu Yiqing sat aside and listened to them.
"Uncle Mu, Uncle Zhang, why are you here free today?" Mrs. Huangfu asked while letting several clan elders eat snacks and fruits.
Mr. Mu smiled and said: "From the Huangfu family, you are the most blessed in our village. You have found such a good daughter-in-law, and your son-in-law can also be obedient!"
Mrs. Huangfu was so praised that she smiled and said quickly: "Uncle Mu, if others say this and I am still polite and guarding Uncle Mu, then I will not be polite. To be honest, these children are obedient.
Day by day, I feel satisfied, and I have nothing more to ask for in my life!"
Mr. Mu smiled and said: "Hey, don't say that. People look to the higher places and water flows to lower places. We all have to look forward. Your good fortune is still early!"
Mrs. Huangfu became even more happy and said quickly: "Uncles, please eat some pastries and fruits. They are all homemade. They are not good things, but they still taste good!"
Several clan elders looked at the snacks and fruits, and actually felt itchy in their hearts for a long time. When they saw Mrs. Huangfu admitting it, they were not polite. Each of them ate some, and they all smiled happily after eating.
"Miss Chu is so handy, everything she makes is delicious! I heard that there is a golden chicken recently, and it tastes very good!" Mr. Mu said with a smile.
Mrs. Huangfu quickly said: "It's called golden chicken, but it tastes spicy and is not suitable for the elderly and children. If the elders want to eat it, just eat the chicken in a jar. I will ask Liu San to deliver it to his house later!"
"Look at the Huangfu family, we are here to discuss matters, and we are not asking for chickens to eat. In this case, we will pay as much as we want!" Zhang clan elder said with a smile.
"Where can I ask for money? You and your clan are always the most respected people in our village. For us juniors, what does it mean to honor a few chickens? If you want to eat them in the future, just let others come to get them, let alone gold, jade, and wheat.
, once you get rid of these juniors, that’s me. When I came to Shangjia Village, several clan elders also took good care of us orphans and widowed mothers!" Mrs. Huangfu said quickly.
Mr. Mu smiled and said: "Look, we are really here to beg for chicken!"
Mrs. Huangfu said a few more polite words, Liu San called for Zhao Xiaomai, and Mr. Mu explained the purpose of his visit.
"It's like this. We old bones have been discussing for a long time and feel that Fugui is not suitable to be the village chief. Now even if he is, the villagers don't trust him! For this selection, we plan to choose from wheat and Li
Let’s choose from the second child. We have been thinking about it these days and feel that Xiaomai is the most suitable. Xiaomai, please tell us what you think! There is also the Huangfu family. You are the elder of this family. You also mean what you say.
Please help me get some ideas!"
When Zhao Xiaomai heard it, it turned out that the rumors in the village over the past month were true. He couldn't help but look at Jin Yu with disbelief on his face - this is not a dream, right? The village chief? It's his turn as a foreigner.
?
"Uncle Mu, so that's what happened!" Mrs. Huangfu was very calm and said with a smile: "Logically speaking, this is Wheat's matter. I am his mother-in-law. I can't mess with it. But as the elder of this family, I
I also want to say a few words!”
Mr. Mu nodded: "From the Huangfu family, you say!"
"That's right, this kid Xiaomai is stable, kind-hearted, and a good person. Everyone has seen it, but he is too young, less than thirty, how can he take on such a heavy burden in the village? I'm afraid he won't be able to do it well!
"Old Mrs. Huangfu said.
When Zhao Xiaomai heard this, he quickly said: "Several clan elders, my mother is right, I am still young and have little experience, and I am still from outside. The clan elders also know about my situation. When the village chief
, I’m afraid the villagers won’t be convinced!”
Mr. Mu directly waved his hands and said: "Although you are from outside, does this house say Zhao's house? Isn't it your last name? Besides, the Huangfu family also said it on the day you came to our village, you
It is her half son who will provide for her in her old age, and he will be a person from Shangjia Village!"
Although he said this, Zhao Xiaomai still felt uneasy and said: "Elders, I understand your kindness, but I still can't be the village chief! I..."
Zhao Xiaomai's face was full of embarrassment.
"The clan elders, Xiaomai is right. He is too young and has no experience. How can he handle so many things in our village? I think we should forget about the village chief. The clan elders should reconsider the candidate.
Come on!" Old Mrs. Huangfu also said, it didn't look like she was being polite, she really didn't want Zhao Xiaomai to be the village chief.
Mr. Mu glanced at the clan elders and said, "Let's do this for today. We old bones will go back to discuss it. Wheat, you also have to think about it again. You can give it to us in a few days."
Reply, how?"
Zhao Maimai responded quickly.
Several clan elders said goodbye, and Mrs. Huangfu, together with Chu Yiqing, sent the clan elders out. As soon as the clan elders left, Mrs. Huangfu asked Liu San to deliver chickens to the clan elders' homes.
Jin Yu was a little unhappy, pouted and said: "Mom, since you don't want Father Mai Xiang to be the village chief, why do you give me a chicken? This chicken is not cheap!"
Mrs. Huangfu said: "This has nothing to do with being the village chief or not!"
Jin Yu still felt awkward and said unhappily: "Mom, I don't understand, why don't you want Xiaomai to be the village chief? This is a big deal to honor our ancestors!"
Mrs. Huangfu glanced at Jin Yu, feeling slightly displeased. She turned to Xiaomai and asked, "Maihua, I told you this, do you blame me in your heart?"
Zhao Xiaomai shook his head: "Mom, look what you said, why should I blame you? You are right, I am indeed not the material to be the village chief!"
Mrs. Huangfu stepped forward and patted Zhao Xiaomai on the shoulder: "Good boy, just don't blame mother. Mother really made this decision for your own good and for the good of this family!"
Jin Yu still couldn't figure it out and entered the room angrily.
Mrs. Huangfu looked at Chu Yiqing: "Yiqing, Jinyu doesn't understand me, can you understand me?"
Chu Yiqing nodded: "Mom, I know you are thinking about our family! Previously, because Yu Langtou's family went to make trouble, the incident with the village chief's aunt came out, so Uncle Fugui could not step down and resigned as the village chief.
As for the position, if the clan elders tell me that Brother Zhao will become the village chief, people in the village will definitely gossip, saying that our family is behind the conspiracy to bring down the village chief uncle!"
"Good boy, it's good that you understand. It's good that this kid Jinyu is half as smart as you!" Mrs. Huangfu sighed.
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Sister Jinyu just wants her husband to succeed. Who doesn't want her husband to be capable and respected? She just can't think about it for the moment. It will be fine if I talk to her!"
Mrs. Huangfu nodded: "She always listens to you, go and persuade her! If I try to persuade her, she will definitely think wrong again!"
Chu Yiqing nodded.
In the room, Jin Yu was folding the freshly dried clothes, pouting unhappily, and kept nagging: "The little old lady doesn't know what she is thinking in her head, such a good thing is actually going out.
No! I don’t want her to be the village chief!”
Chu Yiqing entered the room and couldn't help but smile when he saw Jin Yu's resentful look, so he stepped forward and said, "Sister Jin Yu, my mother is doing this for your own good. You have really wasted my hard work!"
Jin Yu raised her head and said dissatisfiedly: "For my own good? I'm looking at her for the sake of the village chief, okay!" Jin Yu huffed angrily and spoke a little arbitrarily.
Chu Yiqing glared at her: "Sister Jinyu, look at what you said! If outsiders listen to it, won't it cause trouble again?"
At this moment, Jin Yu felt that she had gone too far, so she lowered her head and stopped talking.
"Don't even think about it. Yu Langtou's family is now working in our house, and Yu Xiaoyu is Abao's companion. If Brother Zhao suddenly becomes the village chief, what will Mrs. Zhang and the village chief uncle think? They must feel
So we planned this thing in advance to compete for the village chief's position! Everyone is watching this guy who works as a banker and stall, so how are we going to go out in the future?"
As soon as he said this, Jin Yu also hesitated a little, but when he thought of such a big "official" as the village chief, Jin Yu was still a little unable to turn around.
"Sister Jinyu, I also hope that Brother Zhao will be the village chief. From now on, we will have the final say on this new land, but this will cause more gossip in the village! I think it is better to let Uncle Fugui be the village chief.
It’s convenient!” Chu Yiqing advised again.
Jin Yu bit her lip and whispered: "Sister, I understand, look at me, I'm acting like a child again, I'm making you laugh!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "What a joke, who among us will give it to whom? In fact, if you want Brother Zhao to make progress, there are other ways!"
"Other way? What way?" When Jin Yu heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Except for Uncle Fugui, the only people in this village who can afford to serve as village chiefs are Brother Zhao and Brother Li. If Brother Zhao doesn't agree, it should fall on Brother Li. I see that Brother Li
The second brother's temper is that he is unwilling to do such offending things, so in the end, the clan elders are still in trouble. At this time, I will suggest that Uncle Fugui should be the village chief. But in the future, major events in the village will not be resolved.
For example, big things like building schools and roads should be decided by Brother Zhao and Brother Li together. This can prevent some people from going astray! I have contributed so much money to the village, so I believe it is okay to say something!"
When Jin Yu heard this, Zhao Xiaomai could be regarded as half the village chief, and it was also a major event to honor the ancestors. He immediately nodded and said: "Sister, your method is good, then you have to hurry up and talk to the clan elders."
Say, what if they think of another candidate?"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Okay, I understand, Mrs. Guan Mi!"
Jin Yu couldn't help but smile shyly.
Chu Yiqing guessed right, and Li Laoer refused immediately. The reason was very simple. Where did he have time? Although winter had arrived and it snowed for the first time, the fish shed was as warm as spring. The fish
He eats a lot and is very active. In the past few days, he has to prepare for fishing to supply Chu Han's fresh fish needs. Besides, he is afraid of offending others and is very honest. He is indeed not suitable to be the village chief.
The question of who should be the village chief remained unsolved for half a month. Finally, under Chu Yiqing’s suggestion, Fugui was still the village chief, and Zhao Xiaomai and Li Laoer were the two deputy chiefs of the village. The matter was settled.
Although he was a deputy village chief, Jin Yu was so happy that he killed chickens and fish. He cooked a large table of rice and invited all Li Laoer's family and Sister Xu Zhi to have a lively night.
go.
"Dad Mai Xiang, go and offer incense to my father quickly, saying that you have honored your ancestors!" After everyone left, Jin Yu took Zhao Xiaomai to the house and insisted that Zhao Xiaomai offer incense to the ancestors of the Huangfu family.
"Maixiang Niang, you are just helping to make decisions. You are not an official, so why are you so proud of your ancestors?" Zhao Xiaomai saw that Jin Yu was so excited, and was afraid that she would make some trouble again, so he quickly poured cold water on her.
"Why isn't it Guangzong Yaozu? This deputy village chief is also an official!" Jin Yu said with a straight face, "Why, after you become the deputy village chief, you don't stop what I say?"
Zhao Xiaomai was very tired after being tormented by Jin Yu for a day. Now he wanted to get on the kang and go to sleep, so he stopped nagging Jin Yu and quickly lit incense and put it on the bed.
Outside the room, Mrs. Huangfu and Chu Yiqing listened and couldn't help but said: "Jin Yu, you are just an official fan!"
Chu Yiqing couldn't help but smile.
A few days later, in the evening, the Zhao family had a full meal, a jar of chicken had just been put in the big pot, and the room was warm. Chu Yiqing was talking to Concubine Qing and teasing A Bao when he heard
Someone called the door outside.
"Lizi, go and see who it is!" Jinyu said while wiping the table.
Lizi quickly put down her work and answered the door. Without saying anything to anyone, she took the person directly to the hall.
"Jinyu, Miss Chu, have you had dinner?" The person who came was none other than Mrs. Zhang, followed by Da Gen, who was also carrying something in his hand. As soon as he entered the door, his face was filled with a flattering smile.
When Jin Yu saw that Mrs. Zhang was coming, she quickly shouted into the room: "Mom, my aunt is here, come out quickly!"
Mrs. Huangfu came out quickly, and when she saw Mrs. Zhang, she smiled and said, "Her aunt, why do you have time to come here today? Have you had dinner?"
Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "I've eaten before, I came here after dinner!" After saying that, she asked Dagen to put the things on the table.
There were two chickens and one piece of stuffing. When Mrs. Huangfu took a look at it, she couldn't help but ask: "Her aunt, what do you mean? Why did you bring something?"
Mrs. Zhang said: "Sister, we are all our own people in this house, so I won't hide it anymore. I did something wrong this time and caused trouble for you. I feel sorry for your family and I can't think of your family."
You have a lot of money, so you don't care about me, and Wheat doesn't agree to be the village chief... No matter how you say it, I feel really ashamed and grateful to your family..."
Mrs. Huangfu quickly said: "Her aunt, it's been so long, why are you still talking about this? Come on, let's go to the house and have a good chat!"
Mrs. Zhang quickly responded and followed Mrs. Huangfu into the house.
Zhao Maimai also came forward to greet Dagen, and the two of them made a pot of tea and started drinking it.
Dagen had been doing business outside before and was not familiar with Zhao Xiaomai. Now they were sitting together, trying to find a topic to talk about. They had nothing to say, so they just drank tea with their heads down.
Jin Yu took the opportunity to go to the back room with Chu Yiqing, and snickered in a low voice: "I have given gifts to the village chief uncle for so many years, but this is the first time I have given him a gift!"
Chu Yiqing couldn't help being amused by her and said, "Why, do you care so much about the fabric and the chicken?"
"I'm not curious about that thing, I'm talking about this! Sister, our family's status in the village has now been revealed!"
Chu Yiqing smiled lightly, thinking about the fish shed and chicken shed in his heart.
Half a month later, the weather was getting colder and colder, and the date set by Tieshuan and Xu Zhi was still one month away. Taking advantage of this being one of the few good days before the year, Chu Yiqing wanted to take advantage of it.
Xu Zhi and Xiao Ding arranged the marriage between Lei Yuan and Yingqian together. As soon as the arrangements started, Shangguan Yan, the housekeeper of Shangguan Mansion, took the matchmaker to Shangjia Village, saying that he wanted to propose marriage to Xia He on behalf of Fang Sheng.
"Steward Shangguan, please sit inside!" Chu Yiqing personally received Shangguan Yan.
"Miss Chu, our young master wanted to come in person, but unfortunately, my wife has been in poor health, and she caught a cold a while ago. The young master really couldn't go out, so I sent an old slave here. In short, if Miss Chu has any conditions, I can
Even so, we do it for the good of Fang Sheng and Xia He!" Shangguan Yan said respectfully, with no expression on his face.
"It's rare that Boss Shangguan thinks so highly of Fang Sheng that he even cares so much about his marriage!" Chu Yiqing said with a smile, "Although Xia He is mine, I still have to respect her opinion. In this way, after I ask
, how about just replying to Boss Shangguan?"
Shangguan Yan nodded: "This is what it should be!"
After sending Shangguan Yan away, Chu Yiqing asked someone to notify Xia He and ask her to come back when she had time.
In the evening, Xia He came back from the town. Naturally, he knew what Chu Yiqing wanted, so he knelt down and said in a voice as loud as a mosquito: "It's up to the lady to make the decision!"
Chu Yiqing looked at Xia He and said sincerely: "Xia He, among these maids, you are the one who has been with me the longest and the most stable. I can rest assured that I can leave such a big stall to you! You are so
Do your best for me, and I will naturally treat you well. Fang Sheng is a skilled and down-to-earth person. The most important thing is to treat you sincerely. Although I agree wholeheartedly, I still look at you. If you don’t like him,
I can’t force it!”
After hearing this, Xia He immediately kowtowed to Chu Yiqing respectfully and whispered: "Miss is good to Xia He. Xia He knows that, and Xia He also knows that Fang Sheng is a good person, so Xia He is willing to marry Fang Sheng."
born!"
Chu Yiqing looked at her and asked again: "Have you thought clearly?"
Xia He nodded: "Yes, Miss, please let me do it!"
Chu Yiqing also nodded: "If you are sincere, then I will help you, but you have to think carefully, this marriage is not a child's play, it is about growing together for a lifetime. As the saying goes, men are afraid of getting married.
If you do the wrong thing, a girl is afraid of marrying the wrong man. It’s good to have someone new, but you..."
"Miss, I think very clearly. I was born with a low life. To be loved and cared for by my little wife, I have been lucky for three lifetimes. I will never force anything again. Please fulfill me, Miss!" Xia He kowtowed again.
Chu Yiqing saw that she really thought about it, so he said: "In that case, let's set it on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Anyway, I have to be busy. If I work hard in one day, I will save myself more trouble!"
Xia He quickly kowtowed: "Xia He, thank you, Miss, for your help!"
Chu Yiqing stepped forward and helped her up: "You finally come back, let's talk about old times with the sisters!"
Xia He responded and went out.
Chu Yiqing sighed. Although Xia He had little education and was just a servant, he knew how to cherish the words of the people in front of him. It was a pity that Lan Die had read so many books, but he couldn't know how to give up like Xia He!
Although Yingqian and Xia He are both servants, they are the ones Chu Yiqing relies on more. Therefore, there is no ambiguity in this scene. There is still one month left before they get married, so Chu Yiqing will temporarily let them
He handed over the work and concentrated on preparing the things needed for the wedding. Fortunately, Xu Zhi and Tie Shuan Xiaoding were not in the house, but at Li Laoer's house. In this way, Chu Yiqing only had to busy himself with Yingqian and Xia He.
It's just a matter of marriage.
As the weather gets colder and the sea begins to freeze, more and more fresh fish are consumed in various parts of the Li Kingdom. The number of merchants who come to Wuming Town to buy fish gradually increases. Coupled with the trade routes of the four major families,
The merchants who came to buy fish could safely deliver the fish to the designated place, so the business became better and better, and the price of fresh fish became higher and higher. Slowly, it rose from more than ten yuan to
Fifty cents, and it seems there is more room for growth.
In the capital city and Shangguan Mansion, Shangguan Yunyi's temper has become increasingly irritable. This is all related to the Shangguan family's business volume in the past two months.
"That's all?" Shangguan Yunyi pointed his finger on the table and looked coldly at the shopkeepers of the several branches in front of him.
"Yes, sir, that's all!" Several shopkeepers glanced at each other, and finally a shopkeeper named Mu came out to answer Shangguan Yunyi's question.
"The four major families have monopolized all other businesses. Only the Cao Gang and the Salt Gang have not been robbed of their business. But even so, the court is against us. These days, the docks and private salt stores are being investigated very strictly.
…”
"That's enough!" Shangguan Yunyi growled with a gloomy face, and countless thoughts ran through his mind. How could the Shangguan family fall to this point? How could this woman Chu Yiqing be so powerful? I heard that Lian Tonghai Quan was her
It was also divided into one-third, what on earth was she going to do?
"You guys go down!" Shangguan Yunyi whispered, his hands couldn't help but grasp his hair tightly.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the shopkeepers quickly pushed him away.
"Sir..." Butler Ouyang looked at Shangguan Yunyi worriedly.
"Is there any news about the people sent?" Shangguan Yunyi lowered his voice.
Butler Ouyang shook his head: "No...it seems like everything has disappeared...Sir, there are experts around that woman!"
"Master? Isn't he the person sent by Li Huang?" Shangguan Yunyi said angrily, "If you only rely on that woman's strength, I don't believe it..."
Butler Ouyang whispered: "Today I got the news that the other four major families have signed contracts with the imperial court and handed over all the monopolized wine and cloth industries..."
"These fools! Sooner or later they will be annexed by the imperial court!" Shangguan Yun shouted angrily.
"Sir, I heard that the imperial court has given them many preferential policies, and even the taxes have been reduced by 30%..." Steward Ouyang said in a low voice.
"This is just the imperial court buying people's hearts. Murong Leng, Gong Yuche, and Situ Nan, I want to see how you die in the end!" Shangguan Yunyi said with a ferocious look in his eyes.
Butler Ouyang didn't say anything, but he sighed in his heart. If the young master continues to be stubborn like this, I'm afraid the Shangguan family will die!
