536: Unparalleled in the world, unique in the world
Ning Yan followed Kang Shi and the two of them out of the house. Following their line of sight, she saw a group of people and a group of...
pig?
The young man was riding a snow-white mule.
It's said to be a mule... Except for his slightly stupid appearance, other conditions - such as height, length, and limb muscles - are no less than those of an ordinary thousand-mile war horse. Ning Yan's eyes moved upward and saw the young man wearing a crimson narrow-sleeved dress. Monogram hanging from waist.
The monogram is clear in color.
Without light, it would be difficult to spot.
Suddenly, she had a guess in her mind.
And Shen Tang kept complaining about the unscrupulous businessman. If the other party was not ignorant, why would she have made the trip in person? If outsiders knew that she was the head of a county, she went to buy pig seedlings. Would she still be willing to do it? Are you shameless?
Just buy it...
The profiteer also deceived her into having a face that was easy to bully and sold piglets for pig money. Did he really think that she was the wronged child?
No matter how big a profiteer he is, he still chooses to give in under the threat of her unconventional means and "actively" give him a 20% discount on the market price.
Shen Tang wiped out as many piglets as there were.
Now I am returning home with a full load.
Uninformed people looked at her with a "satisfied" and "satisfied" face, and thought she had won a great victory on some battlefield.
"Go first, Ji Shou!"
Shen Tang jumped off the back of the mule.
The two of them crossed their hands and saluted: "I have met my lord."
Ning Yan also made a blessing ceremony: "I have met Mr. Shen."
"Without so many gifts, what's your harvest today?" Shen Tang's eyes turned to the unfamiliar face again, "Who are you?"
Ning Yan replied: "The widow of Yan'an."
Hearing Ning Yan's identity, Shen Tang put away his smile and returned the gift with a solemn look: "It turns out to be Mrs. Yan. Nice to meet you."
Seeing Shen Tang react like this, she felt happy and sour at the same time - because her husband did not see the wrong person. The person in front of him was different from Zheng Qiao! His sacrifice and hard work were not in vain! At the same time, he also saved a few dollars. Test Shen Tang's meaning separately.
Let's see if Shen Tang still has any grudge against the transfer of Longwu County. If she has any grudges, she will have to wait and see.
She turned sideways to avoid Shen Tang's half salute.
"How can a little woman be so virtuous that she can accept the great gift from Lord Shen?"
Shen Tang said: "Madam, you deserve it."
Ning Yan secretly adjusted her breathing, suppressed the slight heat that had just emerged from her eyes, and behaved calmly: "However, I did not come here as Xingning's widow. The day before yesterday, I went to join my fellow junior brother, and was entrusted by him, just to explain to Shen Jun. It is urgent..."
"Junior brother from the same sect?"
Ning Yan smiled and said: "It was Tianhai Xu Wenzhu whom Shen Jun recommended before. When Junior Brother Xu heard that there was an urgent shortage of grain under Shen Jun's rule, he was worried about delaying spring plowing, so he hurriedly entrusted the young woman to send it, so as to alleviate the suffering of the people of Longwu. Just a little bit..."
What she said was beautiful.
A few words also brought Shen Tang and Xu Jie closer together.
Let Shen Tang know that Xu Jie is a person who knows how to repay kindness.
As she expected, Shen Tang did show great enthusiasm and joy - God knows how worried Shen Tang is about growing food these days! The number of people who starved to death in Longwu County last year was actually more than the number of people who were robbed and burned by ten black horse bandits. Many more were killed!
Every household, not to mention growing grain, has to chew up all the grass and grass! Those rich and wealthy households are not short of food, but they are greedy and raise prices, and sell all the stored grain from last autumn's harvest to other places at high prices...
For example, Shiwu!
Originally, the remaining grain was enough, but who would have thought that Qiu received the next spring plowing, and the situation had changed so much in just a few months! When Shen Tang "took over" their family property, they counted gold, silver, jewelry, and countless solitary paintings and calligraphy. But there is no food!
Shen Tang had all the thoughts to greet their ancestors!
She never thought that Xu Jie would lend a helping hand at this time, and it was not in vain that she spent so much time on him to increase her favorability.
"Just what?" Shen Tang smiled brightly.
Ning Yan: "Junior Brother Xu said business is business."
These grain crops cannot be used by Shen Tang in vain.
Shen Tang was not surprised by this condition.
She is not Wu Xian.
Xu Jie was able to give Wu Xian several granaries for free to help him raise his army, in order to gain the latter's influence in Tianhai and help the Xu family's status. Although he and Shen Tang had a personal relationship, they did not have much connection with the family. benefit.
the most important is--
Xu Jie's master is Wu Xian. Even if he wants to give Shen Tang high-quality grain for free, he has to see if Wu Xian has any feelings for him.
The best thing is to settle the money and goods and stop doing business.
Otherwise, if this matter is revealed by others in Tianhai, Xu Jie will be in an embarrassing situation. Shen Tang can still understand this.
"It's natural. Wen Zhu is willing to help. It's a help in times of need for me. I can't let him do a loss-making business." Shen Tang agreed readily. Seeing the deed handed over by Ning Yan, he scanned the ten lines at a glance and signed his name happily. Print the heart monogram.
The price of this batch of seed grain is low, almost half sold and half given away.
The deed is in duplicate.
One copy was left with Shen Tang.
The other copy needs to be mailed back to Xu Jie.
Shen Tang looked at Ning Yan with a smile, preparing to entertain her warmly for a few days. Unexpectedly, Ning Yan didn't wait for her to speak, and said her purpose first: "There is another matter. The young lady hopes to discuss it in detail with Shen Jun in private. I wonder if Shen Jun can Can’t this be convenient?”
"Of course you can."
Shen Tang turned to ask Kang Shi to help place the pig seedlings, and asked Jiang Sheng to count the grains and store them in storage as soon as possible and distribute them to various places.
"Ma'am, please come with me."
Ning Yan left her daughter to Kang Shi to take care of her temporarily.
Jiang Sheng looked at Kang Shi's strange expression and reminded Kang Shi quietly: "This lady may stay."
Taohua comes to visit with her child, is Kang Shi feeling guilty?
but--
Ning Yan's ex-husband is dead, so she and Kang Shi can be regarded as an unmarried man and an unmarried woman. These days, it is normal for a widow to remarry with her ex-husband's children. Judging from Kang Shi's reaction, the child may not be whose. If the two of them are interested, , maybe we can get back together again?
Although I feel sorry for Yanan to say this.
"Stay? It's okay to stay." Kang Shi didn't know what his colleagues were thinking. He smiled lovingly and teased the girl who looked like a friend to call him "Uncle Kang", "Come! Uncle Kang will show you the pig seedlings, that thing It will be delicious when grown up."
He said and picked up the girl.
Jiang Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Tsk, there's something fishy."
It's a pity that Gu Chi is not present.
If you were there, you wouldn't miss this great show.
at the same time.
Shen Tang and Ning Yan were alone in a room.
She cast a spell to isolate the outside world from eavesdropping, and said: "This place is very safe. If Mrs. Yan has anything to say, just tell me."
Ning Yan looked carefully at Shen Tang's face.
I have the urge to touch it and try it out.
"The little lady heard a rumor outside."
"What rumors?"
"Not many people know about this rumor, but it is extremely important to the young woman - are you a boy or a girl?"
Shen Tang raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that Ning Yan was going to ask this question. The latter's expression was a little different from outside at this moment, but she couldn't tell what was different for a while. She asked instead: "I am a boy. How about my body? I am a daughter. So what about your body?"
"If Mr. Shen is born as a boy, he will be no different from all the troublemakers in the world." Ning Yan's eyes carried an expectation that she was not aware of, "But - if she is born as a girl, Mr. Shen will be the same to me." It is unparalleled in the world and unique in the world!"
Shen Tang's heart trembled slightly.
His eyes changed.
She took the initiative to remove Ning Yan's prefix "Mrs. Banquet" and looked at this unexpected visitor from a new perspective.
Ask her: "If I were my daughter, what would Ms. Ning do?"
