Wen Lian was furious. Now everyone was taking advantage of the new policy to seize the market, but this best friend stayed still and kept her peace.
But she didn't even look at it. Is now the time to settle down?
If you take one step at night now, you will have to catch up on a yearly basis in the future.
She nagged and tried to persuade her for a long time, but Lin Xiaoxiao was not moved at all.
She turned around in anger.
"Forget it, I'm going back!"
She took a few steps back, looked back, and saw Lin Xiaoxiao turning around and waving gently to her. It meant you should leave quickly.
"Have a good rest." Lin Xiaoxiao said gently.
"...Ahhh! I'm so angry with you! What's the use of leaving money idle at home? It's such a waste!!" Wen Lian grabbed her hair.
"I can lend it to you if you want." Lin Xiaoxiao smiled.
"..." Wen Lian was immediately made to lose her temper by her friend's smile.
"Let's go!" She had recently seen that her father's company was very good at seizing the market, and the profits were much larger than before, so she quickly came to remind her friends to follow up.
As a result, seeing the indifferent expression on my friend's face, I felt very angry.
He listens to that guy surnamed Wei in everything, he doesn't try to capture the market, he doesn't invite experts, he just cares about his little ground and he doesn't want to make progress. It's really annoying.
"Let's go, let's go!" Wen Lian became angrier as she thought about it, so she simply stopped staying, left the chess garden, and got on the carriage returning.
She took the car all the way back to the Wen family's mansion in Xiongshan Town.
The Wen family is one of the few big businessmen in Xiongshan Town. Their mansions are connected together, occupying two streets.
There are more than thirty houses of different sizes, some high and some low, with green gardens, pools and rockeries in the middle. Among them, there are more than a hundred servants guarding them.
At this time, it was in the Crested Ibis Pavilion, the largest main building of the Wen family.
The vermilion main hall on the second floor, beside the balcony fence.
Wen Shang, the head of the Wen family, was overlooking the entire Wen Garden with a strong man wearing a white eyepatch on one eye.
Wen Shang is now over sixty years old. He has a broad heart and a fat body. He has a happy face. He is also friendly in business and does good in everything.
Many people outside the country gave him the nickname "The Great Benevolent Man" because he was always willing to do charity.
It was just at this time that Wen Dashan's usually kind and chubby face had beads of sweat leaking out from both sides.
He lowered his head and held a handkerchief, wiping sweat in response.
The handkerchief was almost soaked, but I still didn't notice it.
"Master Han, there is really nothing you can do about your request. We have already donated all the food in stock before, but now we have exhausted all channels and we really can't find more food and meat..." Wen Shang whispered.
begged.
"I don't care about that. I am in charge of this Xiongshan Town. I must make up for all the food and meat. If it is not enough, the higher ups will be blamed. You and I can't bear it." The one-eyed man said coldly.
His name is Han Yuzhong, and he is also the Taoist priest of Guangji Dao in Xuanjing Xiongshan Town who just took office not long ago.
Guangji Road is in charge of commerce and some logistics and storage, and is part of the logistics of the entire Xuanjing City. It happens to be in charge of most of the Wen family's business.
"And I've seen the records. When Wang Chenghao was still here, you donated this amount every year. What's the matter? Now that I, Han Yuzhong, have taken office, you only give me this little payment? You think I, Han Yuzhong, are easier to fool than Wang Chenghao, right?
?”
Han Yuzhong said coldly. There was a hint of threat in his words.
Wen Shang groaned secretly.
Just a few days ago, the previous Taoist leader Wang Chenghao was found guilty of corruption and suddenly stepped down.
Not only him, but also a group of officials also stepped down, and a large number of new people were replaced.
The human relationship network that the Wen family had managed to open up was mostly scrapped in an instant, and now they can only start over.
"Master Han, forgive me, our Wen family really can't afford that much. There are only so many grains on the market now, and we have already offered twice the price, but we still can't buy them!" Wen Shang begged helplessly.
"I don't care about that." Han Yuzhong said coldly, "You have made so many and big moves recently, you have received so many benefits, and you want to get away without giving anything practical?"
Wen Shang was speechless. He had spotted the opportunity before and took action to seize the market in time, which indeed resulted in a lot of benefits.
But those things have nothing to do with grain storage, but they still occupy a lot of funds. Now it's good that Han Yuzhong comes to visit.
Nowadays, the Wen family's transactions through several channels are too aggressive and suspected of being illegal, and Han Yuzhong has found traces of evidence.
If he cannot be satisfied, the Wen family may be in doom this time.
Various thoughts kept spinning in Wen Shang's mind. He thought of various arguments to try to persuade Han Yuzhong.
After just waiting for a while, he suddenly found that there was no sound in front of him.
Looking up, Han Yuzhong opened his mouth slightly and looked at the garden below.
Wen Shang was stunned and quickly looked down at the garden.
Just below, my daughter Wen Lian came in. She was pointing at some uncleaned flowers on the ground and scolding someone.
Wen Lian has just turned 20 now, her figure is becoming more and more curvy, and her appearance is also first-class delicate and gorgeous. She is always dressed in fiery red, like a little pepper.
Han Yuzhong looked down from the second floor, watching Wen Lian walking and talking, and his words and deeds made him feel more and more attractive.
"Who are you?" he asked, narrowing his eyes.
Wen Shang's heart skipped a beat, but he still answered: "That's my little daughter Lian'er. Master Han..."
"It turns out it's niece Lian. I've never seen her before. I didn't expect her to be so beautiful. It's better to get closer to her when you have time." The expression on Han Yuzhong's face became gentle.
"This..." Wen Shang's heart ached, knowing that Han Yuzhong was attracted to his daughter.
Han Yuzhong was not greedy for money, but he was greedy for sex. He had given away many good products before, but now, he actually fell in love with his daughter Wen Lian...
Wen Shang was troubled and heartbroken, but if the Wen family couldn't pass this level now, there would be no future...
He then thought about it, anyway, his daughter was now older, and it was time to get married... In today's world, it was not a loss to follow a powerful person like Han Yuzhong.
Although Han Yuzhong said he was lecherous, he had never heard of any bad rumors about his wives and concubines.
Wen Shang gritted his teeth, thinking about the future of his two daughters and two sons at home.
If Wen Lian alone can exchange for the stable development of the entire Wen family, then this deal will be worth it!
At the afternoon banquet.
Wen Shang specially called Wen Lian to drink with him.
The more Han Yuzhong looked at Wen Lian, the more satisfied he became.
In the evening, Wen Shang specially arranged for Wen Lian and Han Yuzhong to take a walk by the river near Wen's house. This could be regarded as a way to cultivate feelings.
The sky in the evening was a little hazy, and there was rumble of thunder shaking the sky in the distance, and it seemed like it was going to rain.
By the river embankment, Han Yuzhong was in front, Wen Lian was behind, and guards were following not far away.
"Although I don't know why dad asked me to come and walk with you, if you think you can please me like this, you are totally wrong!" Wen Lian didn't go far before she took the initiative and spoke coldly.
Han Yuzhong was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Miss Lian'er really has a good personality. I like your personality. Girls always have to have their own style. It's all the same and submissive. Isn't it too tasteless?"
"Whether I have a personality or not is none of your business?" Wen Lian retorted, "Let me make it clear to you. The people waiting to find matchmakers for this girl can line up from here to Yubei Town. If you are self-aware, don't ask for trouble again.
."
As she was walking and talking, she accidentally sprained her foot and fell forward with an ouch.
"Are you okay?" Han Yuzhong reached out and hugged Wen Lian in time.
"Ah!! What are you doing!!? Disgusting!" Wen Lian screamed and felt a big hand hugging her waist, and a feeling of nausea suddenly welled up in her heart.
Snap!
She waved her hand and slapped Han Yuzhong on the face, struggled out, and stood aside.
The original concern on Han Yuzhong's face suddenly froze, and he touched the place where he was hit on his face with one hand.
Snap!
Suddenly, he slapped Wen Lian in the face in return, making her stunned.
"Hold her down."
The two guards quickly stepped forward and grabbed Wen Lian, one from the left and the other from the right.
"What are you doing?!" Wen Lian screamed, but before the sound could be heard, Han Yuzhong slapped her dizzy with a series of slaps.
Bang bang bang bang!
Han Yuzhong fired his bow with both hands at the same time and hit Wen Lian hard on both cheeks without mercy.
"Reply a letter to Wen Shang and tell him that I will help him discipline his daughter tonight and take her away!" Han Yuzhong said coldly and stopped his hand.
Wen Lian was slapped continuously until she fainted gradually. She screamed a few times and then disappeared. She lowered her head and blood started to flow from the corner of her mouth, and she lost her voice.

In the evening.
Wei He gently picked up a handful of scrambled eggs with tomatoes and put it into his mouth, then picked up a spoon and scooped out a large spoonful of minced meat and rice.
The minced meat in the rice is all stone venison.
That is, one-third of the grain production received from Jiuying.
A stone deer meat field can produce more than two hundred kilograms of pure meat every month. He divides one third of it and uses it alone to add some meat to the family, which is just right.
Anyway, the second sister Wei Ying's food intake is only one-tenth of his, which is almost negligible.
Since Zhou Shun's death, the other branches of the Tianyin Sect have also stopped fighting and fighting. They all seemed to be frightened by such a cruel attack.
Wanqingmen has also ushered in a time of stable development and recuperation.
In addition to practicing in Xishan every day, Wei He mentored other disciples and taught Lin Xiaoxiao's younger brother Lin Yuan. The rest was to study poison science. Occasionally, he went to Hu Cheng's place to see the newly built boxing academy.
Hu Cheng came to see him again before, and together they recruited some refugee orphans with innocent and simple backgrounds into the boxing academy.
With Wei He's current wealth, he doesn't care about the expense of the boxing academy. Not to mention that Hu Chengcheng has a local family to help him, so he basically doesn't have to worry about it.
I just need to go over occasionally to teach the children about their martial arts skills.
"Alas..." Wei He took a few bites of a large bowl of rice, put down the bowl, and looked at the empty seat opposite, speechless.
The second sister went to hang out with Zhenqi again and has been away from home a lot recently.
Originally, he had many complaints about this, but seeing his second sister's increasingly supple skin and healthy complexion, he couldn't say anything to stop her.
Boom, boom, boom.
Suddenly there was a quick knock on the courtyard door.
Wei He stood up, walked over and opened the door. The courtyard here was much smaller than the previous house in Tianyin Town. It only took a few steps to reach the courtyard gate.
Opening the door, standing outside was Lin Xiaoxiao, who was panting and sweating on his forehead.
Lin Xiaoxiao's originally neat and elegant long dress also seemed a bit messy. She was obviously in a hurry on her way here.
"Brother Wei, it's urgent!" Her chest kept rising and falling, her expression serious and solemn.
Don’t have money to read novels? I’ll give you cash or coins, and you can get it for one day only! Follow the public account [Book Friends Base Camp] and get it for free!
"Let's talk about it first." Wei He frowned. He had secretly solved all the troubles at Shuifang in advance. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be new troubles so soon.
The two closed the door and sat on the wooden chairs in the yard.
Wei He poured her a glass of water.
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly."
"Yes..." Lin Xiaoxiao tried her best to calm down her breathing, and then quickly stated the purpose of her visit.
"I know Brother Wei that you have no obligation to help with this, but Wen Lian is my best friend and the sister I can trust with my life. So, I can only ask you to find a solution for this matter now." Lin Xiaoxiao
said in a deep voice.
"Wen Lian?" Wei He asked in surprise, "What can happen to her? Isn't the Wen family a well-known wealthy family in Xiongshan Town?"
"It's her father who plans to give her to an official named Han Yuzhong in Xiongshan Town in exchange for the stability of the Wen family." Lin Xiaoxiao rarely spoke such long words, so it can be imagined that she would risk everything for this sister.
"deliver?"
"Yes, he has been taken away by Han Yuzhong now. If it were later, I might be in trouble!" Lin Xiaoxiao said anxiously.
Wei He shook his head.
"I can't control this matter."
Not only was Wen Lian's character so bad, but he also didn't want to take part in this matter, and he wasn't qualified to take part in it.
It’s not like it’s going to hurt anyone’s life, and the father himself is willing to give it away, so what’s his position to take care of it?
