"Canned food! I heard from a fellow villager that this thing is very valuable. One can of this costs one tael of silver! The young marshal is so kind to us. No matter where you go to be a soldier, you won't get such good things.
Our soldiers are on Danzi."
"No, I don't know how much I envy us that we can join the Zixiao Army. We must be worthy of the young commander."
When Shangguan Yu left, several soldiers who came to collect the cans as representatives whispered to each other.
But in a word, each person's foot speed is not even half a cent slower.
You must be cautious when guarding the city gate. Even on New Year's Eve, no one dares to slack off.
Shangguan Yu raised the corners of his lips. His little girl was so generous. The room full of canned meat was a huge sum of money.
It's a pity that this matter cannot be spread to the outside world, otherwise someone would guess that Bai Ling has a close relationship with him, and they might be in trouble. It would be really frustrating.
In a private house in Zixiao City.
Bai Wen had a cold face and couldn't work up his appetite for the delicious food on the table.
In the past few months, their father and son had made a lot of money, but apart from the money they had to pay to the public, most of it was managed by Bai Wen.
But Bai Wen gave Bai Dashu at least several hundred taels of silver one after another. Unexpectedly, Bai Dashu actually used the money to find women to play with, and even made the girl at home pregnant.
"What do you want to do, dad?" Bai Wen's cold gaze fell on the girl, with murderous intent in his eyes.
Bai Wen was also a young man. After having a taste of women, he also went to have flower wine every now and then to inquire about news.
But there were no concubines or wives in the house.
It's not that Bai Wen is afraid that he won't be able to find a wife, but that what he is doing now is not suitable for many people to know.
Once there is his woman in the house, there is no guarantee that something beyond his control will happen, and Bai Wen will not allow that to happen.
"She has a baby in her belly, so let's take her as my concubine." Bai Dashu felt guilty and did not dare to look at Bai Wen, but he spoke in a helpless tone, as if he was the one who had been wronged.
After several months of getting along, Bai Dashu unconsciously became afraid of his eldest son, whom he once valued.
If Bai Wen's appearance hadn't been right, Bai Dashu would have doubted whether the person in front of him was his son. His gloomy aura was frightening.
Bai Dashu even suspected that if he ruined Bai Wen's affairs one day, Bai Wen would kill his own father without hesitation.
"Having a concubine requires the wife's consent. Have you ever asked your mother what she wants?" Bai Wen's tone was still cold, and he finally looked up at Bai Dashu.
In the past, when the family was in town, Bai Yuanshi spent more time with her two sons, so her son and Bai Yuanshi were closer.
Bai Wen may not have thought about how Bai Yuanshi lived in the countryside before, but Bai Dashu wanted to take a concubine, which would be harmful to Bai Yuanshi, and Bai Wen did not want to see it.
"Dad is the head of the family, so he can't even take care of a woman? If your mother is virtuous, she should know that it's not easy for me to be a man outside, and she should take the initiative to take a concubine for me." Bai Dashu's machismo broke out,
I feel that the eldest son should not ask such embarrassing questions.
Bai Wen squinted his eyes and glanced at the girl kneeling on the ground, but he couldn't see her expression clearly.
"You have a body. You can't kneel for so long in the cold weather. Go back to the house and rest. From now on, you will be the master's aunt. As long as you serve me well, you will have a good life." Seeing Bai Wen staring at him.
Bai Dashu felt bad about the woman, so he urged the woman to leave first.
But the woman raised her head and looked at Bai Wen, as if she didn't dare to get up if Bai Wen didn't make the decision.
"What do you think the eldest young master is doing? I am the master, don't you know whose woman you are?" Bai Dashu slammed the table hard and shouted to the woman.
"Yes, sir." The woman trembled, tears welled up in her eyes, and she hurried away.
Bai Wen did not force the woman to stay, although as long as he gave an order, the servants in the house would obey him.
"It's okay to let her stay. Dad can take care of it. The business we are doing now is to make money, but there are many people watching. If she has problems, don't blame his son for being cruel." Bai Wen was only half full after eating.
, but I have no appetite to talk about it now.
"You don't need to explain this matter, she's just a concubine. If she gets restless, I won't be the first to spare her!" Bai Dashu saw Bai Wen spat out and spoke like a man.
The main reason is that now that he has money in his hands, as far as Bai Dashu is concerned, women can have it if they want it.
Not to mention marrying those wealthy ladies, it is still easy to buy a few pretty girls. After the fun is over, you don't have to take responsibility. Unless you have his bloodline, Bai Dashu doesn't want to give her the position of aunt.
"Don't let my mother know about this. It's best if my father takes time to go back after the new year. It's best to find a grain merchant. There is a shortage of grain in the north now, so we will definitely make several times the money. We can work for a few years and we can collect the money."
Hands on."
Bai Wen walked a few steps and stopped, then told Bai Dashu: "This has to be done in private. I will send someone to go back with dad when the time comes. As for this woman, dad doesn't have to take her with me. Don't let my mother worry.
"
Bai Dashu was so frightened that his face turned pale when he heard that he was going to resell the grain to foreigners.
Smuggling grain and grass was found out by the court, and there was only one way to die. His eldest son really dared to do it.
But what Bai Wen said next made Bai Dashu angry. He had become a great master, so why did he still have to be secretive when taking a concubine?
However, Bai Wen still had to rely on Bai Wen to make money. Bai Dashu was dissatisfied and did not dare to say anything, but he was thinking about how to use the food to leave more money for himself.
Bai Dashu already knew how to do the fur business, but he had no capital at hand, so he could only act like a follower, running errands for Bai Wen. Bai Dashu felt unhappy.
Beijing.
There is a palace banquet in the palace tonight. Officials of the third rank and above, their families, and relatives of the emperor are all going to the palace to attend the banquet.
Bai Ling wanted to accompany his two younger brothers, so he asked Princess Yayang to ask for a favor from the Queen Mother and not attend the palace banquet.
The Queen Mother knew that Bai Ling was the Young Master of Yaowang Valley, so she would naturally sell her this favor. However, this matter was not announced to the public, which gave Mrs. Hu no chance to implement the plan she had prepared.
The palace banquet ended late at night, and it was already late at night by the time they left the palace and returned home. Those who had the energy to stay up late watched the New Year's Eve, while most of the people were tired and went back to their rooms to rest.
"Bitch, even if you escaped tonight, I don't believe you can stay in the capital and stay in the house forever!" Mrs. Hu smashed a set of porcelain angrily.
Tonight is New Year's Eve, so Mr. Hu should rest in Mrs. Hu's yard.
But Mr. Hu has already given Mrs. Hu a grounding order. If it were not for the palace banquet and the family members, Mrs. Hu would not even have a chance to go out. How could Mr. Hu slap himself in the face and come to Mrs. Hu at this time?
Bai Ling, who was a little sleepy, suddenly sneezed and muttered: "Who is talking about me? Could it be that my popularity has become better?" (To be continued)
