Chapter 262 The hunter smells the blood of his prey
Rong Song remembered what Xi Yan once said, saying that she could not let some people use food as a bargaining chip to compete for the throne, let alone let the people suffer because of it.
She also said that Zhou Xing could do such a thing.
If they can take the initiative, it will not be so easy for Zhou Xing to make a fuss about food.
"A friend of mine once said that food is the most important thing for the people, and when doing food business, you can't just focus on money." Rong Song said quietly.
Zhou Mu suddenly thought that the friend Rong Song was talking about might be Mr. Yan.
When he left Bafang Hutong, he remembered again that after Mr. Yan bought the land in the southern suburbs, he asked Lao Wang to buy the fish pond. If Mr. Yan could really predict the future, he probably felt sorry for Lao Wang, so he asked Lao Wang to buy it.
Going to the fish pond as compensation?
To be honest, such a person is too soft-hearted and can easily be found out. And how can such a soft-hearted person be a vicious person?
Logically speaking, it is difficult for such a soft-hearted person to achieve great things.
It must be that he is overly worried. If the person behind Rong Song is a soft-hearted person, how could he do things that harm the country and the people?
Gu Xiyan didn't expect Zhou Mu to come to her suddenly.
Because she was getting married soon, she was sitting in the yard embroidering the mandarin duck bellyband for her wedding. She didn't expect that Zhou Mu would suddenly come over and kill her, so she hurriedly tried to hide it.
But Zhou Mu happened to come in and saw her sneaky appearance.
"Is there anything I can't see?" Zhou Mu joked after seeing Gu Xiyan in such a panic.
Gu Xiyan blushed and tried to divert Zhou Mu's attention: "Why is the young master here?"
I didn’t say anything before coming, which scared her.
Zhou Mu had long legs and quickly arrived in front of Gu Xiyan. Seeing that she was so nervous that she was holding her breath, she suddenly stepped forward to snatch away the "treasure" she had hidden behind her.
But Gu Xiyan was prepared and stood up in a hurry: "Young master, stay away from me!"
Seeing her hiding, Zhou Mu became even more curious: "You are my fiancée, what can't I see? It can't be other men's things."
Gu Xiyan was too lazy to pay attention to him, turned around and ran into the house, hiding the small coat under the quilt.
But Zhou Mu was faster than her, so she hid it, but Zhou Mu took it out the next moment.
Gu Xiyan immediately wanted to snatch it back, but was still a step too late.
Zhou Mu finally saw clearly the red girl's coat embroidered with a mandarin duck pattern in his hand. It was a small piece of cloth, but the color was as bright as fire, as if it could burn his fingertips.
He hurriedly tucked the little coat back into place, but the tips of his ears quietly turned red.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became ambiguous, and the air seemed to be burning.
Neither of them dared to look at each other, and Zhou Mu even looked left and right, only hating that he had so many hands.
Gu Xiyan was also very embarrassed. After all, she was a young girl who had not yet left the court. It was so embarrassing that her fiancé saw the small clothes she was going to wear for her wedding and held them in her hand.
Zhou Mu saw Gu Xiyan's blushing cheeks and simply asked: "But what should I wear on the wedding night?"
Gu Xiyan was immediately annoyed. She glared at him hard and raised her chin provocatively: "Even if you wear it, won't the young master not be able to have sex?"
Zhou Mu:......
It’s just that this damn girl doesn’t sympathize with him, she actually pokes him where it hurts.
Seeing Zhou Mu's speechless look, Gu Xiyan proudly continued to stimulate: "I guess it will take more than a month, but the poison on the young master's body will not be cured? So no matter what I prepare, the young master can just take a look.
”
After saying that, she walked out of the dormitory triumphantly.
Zhou Mu was left standing there, unable to recover for a while. He didn't know how long it took, but he shook his head helplessly and laughed dumbly.
It seems that he really has to think of a way to solve the problem. Otherwise, this girl will probably make fun of him for the rest of his life.
If he didn't consummate his marriage with her on the wedding night, he would never be able to raise his head in front of this unkind little girl for the rest of his life.
After Gu Xiyan turned around and led Zhou Mu's army, he was a little worried that he had failed, fearing that it would hurt Zhou Mu's self-esteem.
When Zhou Mu came out, she carefully looked at Zhou Mu's expression and saw that he was no different from usual, so she felt relieved.
Little did she know that Zhou Mu's mind was still on the red dress embroidered with mandarin ducks, and he even couldn't help but imagine how beautiful it would look on her body.
As soon as Gu Xiyan turned her eyes, she saw the tip of Zhou Mu's ears turning red: "What are you thinking about, Master?"
Zhou Mu coughed twice and changed the subject: "I went to see Rong Song today."
Gu Xiyan's reaction was slow for a moment, and then she regained her composure: "Young master, did you go to see Rong Song specifically?"
She did not forget that Mr. Zhou was the right minister of the household department.
"So be it. I also went to the southern suburbs and met Lao Wang, and I heard him talk about Mr. Yan, a man with great supernatural powers. This Mr. Yan is amazing, he can actually predict the future..."
Gu Xiyan couldn't sit still after hearing this. She felt guilty and interrupted Zhou Mu: "How is that possible? Young master must have had a different idea."
"This is one of the reasons why Mr. Yan is hiding his head but not his tail. If there is no problem with Mr. Yan, why should he hide his head and hide his tail? Furthermore, there was a heavy rain not long after we bought the land in the southern suburbs, and now the land has turned over.
More than ten times, Mr. Yan made another huge profit. The biggest flaw Mr. Yan revealed was that he should not have reminded Lao Wang to buy the few acres of fish ponds in Majia Village. Now that the fish price has risen to 300 Wen per catty, Lao Wang has lost money from selling the land.
So I made up for it a lot. With so many coincidences coming together, what is this but a foresight?" Zhou Mu said.
Gu Xiyan's beautiful eyebrows slightly twisted, so why did she suddenly soften her heart and remind Lao Wang to buy the few acres of fish ponds in Majia Village?
"I think the young master is too suspicious. Besides, isn't Rong Song very powerful? Why does the young master always hold on to that Mr. Yan? He is just an accountant, not as magical as the young master said.
." Gu Xiyan squeezed out a smile, trying to brainwash Zhou Mu, hoping he would forget about Mr. Yan.
Furthermore, she felt that there would be no more Mr. Yan, the accountant, and she no longer needed to play Mr. Yan when meeting Rong Song.
"I don't deny that Rong Si is good business material, but Mr. Yan is the mastermind behind it, and I suspect that Mr. Yan is the mastermind of the charcoal reselling incident. They are the same person!" Zhou Mu looked like he had never done before.
seriousness.
He felt that he was not being careless, and his intuition told him that this was the same person. This was the certainty that a hunter would have when he smelled the blood of his prey.
Gu Xiyan was silent.
How long has it been? Why does Zhou Mu still remember the charcoal incident?
At this moment, she really felt that people like Zhou Mu were untouchable. Once she was cared about by him, she would be cared about forever.
She probed: "If Mr. Yan catches Mr. Yan one day, will he not detain Mr. Yan and jail him? After all, he is doing business seriously and has not done anything harmful to nature. What do you think, Mr. Yan?"
