Xia Shang still didn't understand how the tall and thin shopkeeper could easily resolve the dispute in this short period of time.
Xia Shang didn't bother him, and waited until the shopkeeper sent the person away before he stepped forward to identify himself.
When he learned that the big boss was here, the tall and lanky shopkeeper was flattered and kept trying to please him.
"Come on, come on, Mr. Xia, please come in. My name is Xu An, and I used to help Mr.
How can a young man take the helm of such a big family business? I didn’t expect that the head of the family would be so young when I saw him today. It’s true that a hero comes from a young age. A tiger father has no canine sons, and the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead..."
"Okay, okay. I'm just curious, what did you say to that person before? Why did you suddenly change your attitude? And what good tips he said, why don't even I know about it?"
Xu An sent Xia Shang to sit down behind the counter, brewed a pot of tea, and brought it to him respectfully: "The boss doesn't know? You shouldn't! We have just received news from several shopkeepers in Yangzhou City, saying that if there is anything else
If restaurant owners come to cause trouble, don't cause conflicts with them. You can lure them with the benefits of distributing Wuliangye, give Wuliangye at a low price to the restaurants, and promise that we can supply the goods in the long term."
When Xia Shang heard this, he couldn't help but be startled, thinking that this was an idea that he had come up with for a long time? He had never thought of it at all!
Could it be that Qin Huairou decided it privately?
Obviously it's impossible. The shopkeeper said first that this news was just received.
If the family makes any decision, it will take at most one day to communicate it to each wine shop.
A day or two ago, Huairou was not at home at all. Who was making the decision in private?
Xia Shang frowned lightly. Regardless of whether this method was good or bad, as the head of the family, it would be somewhat disconcerting for someone under his command to give random orders behind his back.
Xia Shang did not express his position. After chatting with the shopkeeper for a few words, he left the shop.
Perhaps Xia Shang felt a little melancholy because he had lived a comfortable life for too long.
The grudge between the Inspectorate and the Smiling Tiger has not been resolved, and the two or three women in the family are still unclear. Although they have some savings, they seem not mature enough to leave Yangzhou City and develop elsewhere. They hang around in this corner of Yangzhou.
Xiaodi is really a little depressed.
I returned to Yulin County with some sad thoughts. As soon as the driver arrived at the intersection, he could see the mansion gate in the distance. He saw a car driving in front of the mansion gate to pick up someone, and then went to another street intersection.
When his car arrived at the door and his servants came up to greet him respectfully, Xia Shang casually asked: "Who was the car driver who left earlier?"
"The second lady's mother."
"Mrs. Liu?"
"Exactly. The second lady misses her mother, and often invites Mrs. Liu to come over and talk."
Xia Shang did not ask any more questions, but suddenly realized a fatal question.
Before Liu Ruyan, Mrs. Liu and Xia Shang had several exchanges. At that time, Mrs. Liu invited Xia Shang to join the Red Flower Club many times. Xia Shang refused many times. On the surface, Mrs. Liu was not entangled, but later she took the initiative to find him.
Qin Huairou recommended her daughter Liu Ruyan, and during this period, she created an opportunity for Qin Huairou to get to know...
Moreover, the key point is that there is a difference in family status between the Liu family and the Xia family. The Liu family belongs to the upper class, but it is obviously unreasonable to marry their daughter to a lower class as a concubine.
Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Liu's idea must be to use her daughter to blow her pillow, and her ultimate goal must be to get Xia Shang to join the Red Flower Club.
How smart was Xia Shang? Think about it carefully, how could you not know how to take advantage of the relationship? In this case, this marriage had ulterior motives!
It is absolutely unforgivable for someone to use their feelings as a bargaining chip!
Now Mrs. Liu has come to Xia Mansion twice from Liuzhuang in three different ways, euphemistically claiming to be meeting her daughter, but in fact she is secretly giving advice on how to capture a man's heart so that she can have a crush on him later.
The more Xia Shang thought about it, the angrier he became. If Qin Huairou had not made the right decision, how could such things have happened? However, how could Xia Shang be willing to blame his obedient and sensible wife?
After thinking about it, I still feel a little depressed.
Xia Shang arrived at the main entrance hall. There was no one in the hall, and the new servant followed behind him.
Xia Shang sat down, poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and after it cooled down, he spit it back: "Go and get some hot tea, and ask Liu Ruyan to come over."
Xia Shang was in a very unhappy mood. The main reason was that Liu Ruyan's mother had evil intentions. Even if Liu Ruyan was innocent, he still had some anger in his heart.
But the only advantage of this matter is that it makes Xia Shang feel no more unbearable and guilty. After all, he married himself, but he didn't look good to others.
Xia Shang thought for a long time, and a gust of wind at the door pulled Xia Shang out of his thoughts.
Liu Ruyan floated over in green clothes, holding a teapot in her hand, her mouth was cute, and she took small steps to avoid losing her posture. Liu Ruyan tried his best to stay natural, but he couldn't hide the trace of uneasiness and fear in his eyes.
It's because I can't understand this man's thoughts, so I can't feel at ease.
Liu Ruyan made tea and wanted to bring it to Xia Shang, but she saw that Xia Shang had already poured a cup and started drinking it. She had no choice but to sit aside and take a sip.
Xia Shang took a look at Liu Ruyan's outfit today, with green gauze and milky white lining, a string of real jewelry hanging from her pink neck, pink and moist rouge lips, smoky eyebrows, shining eyes, a golden hairpin and a bejeweled look.
She looks very noble, but at such a young age, it seems a bit awkward when compared to her.
Does it look good?
Of course it looks good.
But Xia Shang felt resentment in his heart, so he didn't feel warm in his heart. He just looked at the green clothes and felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"Did your mother come just now?" Xia Shang asked calmly.
But Liu Ruyan sat upright: "Yes, mother has just left. If she had known that the young master would come back, she could have asked her to stay a little longer."
"From now on, when I'm not at home, you should try to have as little contact with your mother's family as possible. After all, your status is different now."
Hearing Xia Shang's words, Liu Ruyan's expression froze and she looked at Xia Shang with a frown. How could she get such a ruthless word?
Liu Ruyan felt aggrieved, thinking about her mother's warning but not daring to show it, saying that her coy posture at this moment would only make the man more disgusted, so she could only force herself to calm down, lower her head and roll up her sleeves.
"Well? Did you hear that?" Xia Shang emphasized, proving that he was very taboo about this matter.
It's not that Xia Shang is unkind, it's just that he doesn't want this woman to be instigated by Mrs. Liu and becomes a bad person, so he feels that he should speak more harshly at this moment.
Liu Ruyan blushed with embarrassment. She might have started crying before. She couldn't even see her mother's face casually. Wasn't it clear that she wouldn't make it easy for herself?
"I...I understand."
Xia Shang nodded and his expression softened: "One more thing, I heard what our shopkeeper said in Yangzhou City today. If the shopkeeper of another wine shop causes trouble, he will buy enough Wuliangye at a low price to resolve the dispute.
Do you know about this?"
After listening to Xia Shang's words, Liu Ruyan seemed calm and nodded: "Yes, I informed the shopkeepers because..."
"Snapped!"
Before he finished speaking, Xia Shang slapped his palm on the table and made a loud noise. He was so frightened that the tea in Liu Ruyan's hand turned over. The tea soaked him all over. He didn't even bother to clean it up. He quickly got up and walked to the front of the hall tremblingly.
He held his head, not daring to take a breath.
"Who told you to make your own decisions?" (To be continued)
