The two carriages moved forward slowly and returned to a familiar place. Shen Qianqian and Chen Mo sat at the front of the carriage and introduced to Chen Mo that there was a temple here, a Taoist temple there, and a small lake not far away. There are big insects infested on the top of the mountain.
It's as if this place is his back garden.
In the past few days after leaving Peijin, Chen Mo not only listened to Shen Qianqian's tireless talk about the local customs and customs here, but also deliberately breathed out his own breath while practicing. The purpose was to give Shen Baibai a feeling, just to see what he could do. He can't feel it. Chen Mo knows that he doesn't have the intention of the three realms, it just depends on whether his instinctive perception can feel it.
Chen Mo didn't really want to help him, but just out of curiosity. He wanted to know whether such a person would follow his lead in martial arts. It was like a child seeing an ant on the ground. Then draw a thin line next to it and see if he will follow the line he drew.
Whether it succeeds or not, it doesn’t matter, just treat it as a pastime on the journey.
The four of them stopped for a short rest at a roadside wine shop. The business of the wine shop was pretty good and there were a lot of customers, which also proved that they were almost reaching their destination.
After ordering some hot dishes, Shen Qianqian said: "It won't take long before we arrive in Lingmiao. Then I will treat my eldest brother to something more delicious."
"Which direction is Changjing?" Chen Mo asked.
"I just followed this road all the way, and Lingmiao branched off somewhere in the middle, so I said before that Lingmiao and Changjing would just deviate a little, so big brother would just take a slight detour."
"To be honest, I often go to Changjing. In fact, Lingmiao is not much worse than that. Except that I can't see the splendid palaces, there are some in Changjing and also in Lingjing."
Shen Qianqian kept praising the place where she lived.
"By the way, why don't eldest brother celebrate the New Year at our house." Shen Qianqian suggested. "We will go to Changjing together after the New Year. Our family will go to Changjing every time during the New Year. My father is going I visited some people there, and also met various uncles and aunts for dinner and drinks."
Chen Mo didn't say anything. The waiter also brought their food.
"Hey, have you heard? Recently, a friend of a friend of mine had a problem with the goods he bought at Shen's house." When Chen Mo's side was silent, the voice of the diner next to him suddenly broke in.
"Are there problems with the Shen family's goods?" A companion's tone was a little unbelievable. It seemed that he believed in the Shen family's goods.
"It's true, and the quantity is not small. In order to cooperate with the Shen family for some time, they have targeted the first and the beginning of this year when the new emperor ascends the throne and prepare to go big. They asked for a lot more goods, but who would have thought, But something went wrong, which made him anxious. At this time, he was looking for other sources of goods, but he couldn't catch up. He seems to have gone to Lingmiao to ask the Shen family for an explanation. "
"When you said that, I remembered the news I received some time ago. It seems that someone also had such a problem. I thought someone was deliberately smearing the Shen family. It seems that is not the case." Another companion said.
"Isn't that right? It seems that my friend's friend is going to miss the opportunity to make a fortune."
"That's not necessarily the case."
"The goods are all gone. If you miss it this year, you may not have the chance."
"It's a blessing in disguise. If you miss the opportunity brought by the new emperor's accession to the throne, another opportunity will appear, and it will be hit with one hit."
"What's the meaning?"
"You have forgotten that when doing business with the Shen family, you are still afraid of losing money. Didn't similar problems also occur when the Shen family first became rich? At that time, the customers received generous compensation from the Shen family, and the Shen family also relied on this You can win so many customers in one go. So, your friend's friend may make more money by doing business with the supply of goods, but that's just a possibility, but the Shen family's compensation will definitely be in place." The man's analysis was clear and logical.
"It seems right."
"That's not necessarily true." Another person interjected: "This time it's not just a matter of one or two families. Judging from the news, many families have encountered such trouble."
"Don't panic then, the Shen family has made a lot of money in these years. Even if all the compensation is cashed out, it won't prevent them from eating delicacies from the mountains and seas that we can't afford during the Chinese New Year this year. Why are you worrying so much?"
"It's reasonable to say that we are not on the same level as them. It's enough to have two plates of peanuts to go with the wine. Come on, have a drink."
Chen Mo ate his own food and glanced at Shen Qianqian, who originally wanted to argue with them but was pushed down by Zheng Fu. There was still anger on his face.
"Brother Chen, what a joke. This happens every year. It's all unfounded. Some people just don't like us." Zheng Fu explained to Chen Mo, then looked at his young lady and said, "Miss , you have never encountered such a thing before, I can understand your anger. Now that you have grown up, you will encounter more such things. You have to learn to be able to calm down like the head of the family. Many of these are rumor."
"The head of the family is also very annoyed by this kind of thing, and there is no better way. The head of the family also said that if you talk about rumors easily, you will have trouble trying to refute them. Sometimes, if you do your best, those rumors will be self-defeating."
Shen Qianqian took a deep breath, put a smile on her face again, and said, "Don't worry, brother, there will be no shortage of New Year's dishes."
"..." Chen Mo was speechless. Is she still worried that she wouldn't be able to eat sumptuous dishes?
While they were eating, on the road outside the wine shop, on the way Chen Mo and the others came, a group of people drove towards the wine shop.
.........
The Shen family has a large courtyard of their own in Peijin, and the Shen family lives here. The people living at home at this time do not know what happened to the Shen family's treasure store because they are not the senior leaders of the family business. , they are all busy with their own things for the end of the year.
A woman was discussing something with several other women in the corridor of the front yard, laughing from time to time.
The woman saw a retinue hurriedly coming in from the gate, and then walking toward the meeting hall without looking back. The woman was confused because she remembered that this retinue who followed her children had come back. Even children who are not his own are back.
Thinking of this, the woman felt very happy and wanted to step forward to ask about the situation, but she was just in the mood to chat with several other women, so she could only ignore her mood and chat with them again, and then found an excuse to leave. go.
In the conference hall, Hong Cong explained the whole matter simply and clearly.
"A two-pronged approach?" Shen Waguan pondered for a moment.
"What?" Hu never heard clearly or didn't understand what the family leader meant, and asked in confusion.
"Master, is Xiaoqian and Xiaobai coming back?" At this time, the woman in the front yard came here and asked anxiously.
The two people, who originally had serious faces, calmed down their emotions and returned to normal in a tacit understanding. However, their previous expressions were still seen by the attentive woman.
"Did something happen to Xiaoqian and Xiaobai?" The woman walked quickly to Shen Wanguan and asked anxiously.
"Haha, no, no." Shen Waguan chuckled.
"Impossible, your expressions were not like this just now. Something must have happened. Tell me quickly." The woman scolded.
"Something happened, but it's not Xiaoqian or Xiaobai's fault. There's something wrong with Jubao Bank." Shen Wanguan replied.
Hearing that it was not his children who were in trouble, he felt a little calmer: "What happened at home?"
"Whether the problem is big or small, don't worry about it. If your family members become nervous because of the Treasure Collection, just step in and calm them down. I'll still be busy dealing with it."
Just as the woman was thinking about what to say, Shen Wanguan took her hand, patted the back of her hand gently and said, "Don't worry, it will be solved. Don't you understand what kind of person I am, your man?" This year’s Chinese New Year will be the same as usual.”
After saying that, Shen Wanguan walked out of the house. The servant said goodbye to his wife without saying anything to her. For fear of making too many mistakes, he followed Shen Wanguan out.
As the two of them walked on the corridor, the servant asked softly: "Do you want to report the case to the government and let them help?"
Shen Wanguan didn't say anything. He thought that if he reported the case, the government here would not be able to deal with the matter there. Talking to the government there would waste a lot of time.
This matter is somewhat beyond my control.
"Let's do this first..." Shen Wanguan was about to give instructions when the housekeeper of his family came over with someone.
"Master, the people from Peijin are looking for you." The housekeeper said as he brought the person to Shen Wanguan.
Shen Wanguan looked at the person who came, a little unfamiliar, but since it was brought by the housekeeper, he was one of his own, and it was impossible for him to remember all his subordinates clearly.
"What happened? Something happened over there in Peijin?" Shen Wanguan asked. Peijin was one of his earliest "territories" to expand. If there were problems there, it seems that those who wanted to deal with him were very capable. Scheming.
"Master, nothing happened in Peijin. Butler Zhong asked me to come back and report that the young lady and the young master are in Peijin."
"Huh?" Shen Wanguan was confused for a moment and asked immediately: "You mean the young lady and the young master are in Peijin?"
Shen Wanguan glanced at the retinue who was also confused.
"Yes, there is a letter from the young lady here." The visitor took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Shen Wanguan.
Shen Wanguan opened the envelope and read it carefully. His originally doubtful and heavy mood turned into a clear sky, and he laughed: "It's the word Qianqian, that's right."
Shen Wanguan happily packed up the letter and said to the subordinate: "Go back and tell those people to come back. The young lady and the young master are fine. There is no need to look for them."
Although the subordinates didn't know what happened, they still followed the order and left.
"Old Shen, you take him to receive the reward, and I will go out for a while." Shen Wanguan said to the housekeeper. M.
"Master, where are you going?"
"Changjing."
