Chapter 35 Seeking Skin

There were people coming and going at the door, and it was inconvenient to speak, so a few people talked a little and immediately entered the courtyard. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis is also an independent courtyard, but it is much larger than Zhou Huaiyu's.

Most of the meditation rooms in the east chamber are more spacious than those in the west chamber, and the east chamber is also divided into areas, some of which are occupied by couples who come to incense together, and some of which are only men.

Song Yun has been thinking about this smart and poor cousin since she saw Zhou Huaiyu in the Zhou Mansion, but she has never followed her grandmother to the Zhou Mansion again, because she knows that even if she goes, the Su family will not let her see her.

So today, as soon as the two cousins met, they held hands and didn't let go, and they bit their ears from time to time to whisper, and the intimate appearance made the others smile and be gratified.

Not to mention Yu'er, they all know what kind of character their own girl is, that is, some young ladies from the family, Yun'er can't look at it, she can fall in love with Yu'er like this, in addition to blood and family, I'm afraid it's more because of Yu'er, Yun'er is recognized.

Thinking of what the Wang family had told them Yu'er before, several men in charge of the Song family wanted to ask it quickly.

In the end, what did the Zhou and Su families seek that made Yu'er so cautious?

"Yu'er, you suddenly ...... Think clearly, but what happened?" Song Guang, as the elder with the highest status among the people present, was naturally asked by him.

As soon as Song Guang spoke, everyone looked at Zhou Huaiyu together, and Zhou Huaiyu also put on a serious face, and before she could speak, everyone felt her prudence.

"Grandfather, uncle, can our family have business dealings with the Zhou family or forces related to the Zhou family, or do not do business with them, but we have them in our business?"

As soon as Zhou Huaiyu opened his mouth, he asked about such a trade secret, so that the three ancestors and grandchildren of the Song family couldn't help but glance at each other.

Zhou Huaiyu saw it in his eyes and didn't speak, waiting for their "eye contact" to finish.

This time, it was Song Cheng, the second master of Song, who replied: "Don't hide it from Yu'er, most of our family's business now is related to the Zhou family and its involved forces, especially in Beijing, and there are some other early industries in the south, but it has little to do with it." ”

"Then the most important thing in our family now can be said to be the lifeblood of the family's business, can they participate?"

When the three ancestors and grandchildren heard this, they couldn't help but glance at each other again, and this time, there was already a little shock in their eyes.

Song Guang nodded solemnly at his son and grandson, and then Song Cheng spoke.

"The old house of the Song family is in the south, and our group moved to the north only because of the relationship with Wu'anhou and the guarantee, and then sold the goods from the south to the north, and then sold the goods from the north to the south, so as to make profits.

"On the surface, I have made some money over the years, and then I have opened a lot of shops in Beijing and my hometown, and I am making money every day, but in fact, most of our income is still the difference between the price of strange goods and the living. ”

Song Cheng said, seeing that his mother's wife, including her smart daughter, were all puzzled, as if she didn't understand, but this niece who hadn't seen her for several years had bright eyes.

Song Cheng didn't understand for a moment whether she really understood, or if she was just appreciating them for being able to make so much money.

"So even if you don't want these shops, as long as you change to a 'backer' that you can rely on, can our family still do today's business?" Zhou Huaiyu saw Song Cheng looking at her and took the opportunity to ask.

Song Cheng was stunned for a moment, it turned out that his niece's eyes lit up because he thought of this, "You can also say that!"

Looking at his niece's eyes that were even brighter for a moment, Song Cheng sighed helplessly: "The Manchu Dynasty can rely on it more solidly than the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, there are really not many! Moreover, these forces have nothing to do with us, and they can't cling to them if they want to!"

"Oh, can you ask my uncle to tell Yu'er about the current status of the Wu'an Hou Zhou family in the Great Li Dynasty and the relationship between the forces related to it?"

This time, it was Song Yi, the third son of Song, who opened his mouth.

Their Song family has always lived in the south, has been doing business for generations, and is a wealthy local family, but whenever there is a war, if the imperial court finds them, they still have to serve.

In the fourth year of Jianxing, Zhou Mao, the young and strong Marquis of Wu'an, went all the way south to collect money from various wealthy merchants in the south in the name of collecting grain from the army.

At that time, the Song family gave 20,000 taels and wanted to pass this pass, but Song Guang, who was in the middle of the branch, was unwilling to accept the oppression of the branch and took the initiative to find Zhou Mao, saying that as long as he used the name of the official family, he would give a large amount of money to supply the army for a long time.

Of course, Zhou Mao agreed, after all, he could get a lot of money without much effort.

Then Song Guang took his two sons and started the business of selling in the north and south.

Because of the escort of the army, no one dared to fight their ideas along the way, and even more convenient travel, walking fast, fast circulation of goods, and naturally making more money in silver.

Then money made money, and profits rolled over, but in just a few years, Song Guang's branch grew stronger. In his hometown, he has surpassed the branch of the family, and it has faintly made the Song family the leader of the local merchants.

Zhou Mao saw that the silver from the Song family was getting more and more year by year, and he was like a living god of wealth, so he had the idea of taking the initiative to make friends with the Song family, and even promised the marriage of his eldest son.

At that time, Song Guang made money, and his status in the family not only did not rise, but suffered more oppression, which made him completely disappointed in the Song family.

Although Zhou Mao is only a small general, once the war is over, as long as he does not die, he will inevitably be an official and a lord, and he will be prosperous and rich.

Therefore, the two families secretly discussed, no matter what the Zhou family has reached in the future, the eldest son and daughter-in-law must be his daughter of Song Guang.

Song Guang was guaranteed, and naturally he fully supported Zhou Mao to climb up and let him establish countless military exploits.

Until the end of the war, the Zhou family entered Beijing and married the daughter of the Song family as promised, and then Zhou Mao sealed the Marquis of Wu'an in one fell swoop.

However, now that I think about it, this decision made the Song family regret it all the time in the next ten years.

After the Song family married into the Zhou family, she gave birth to her eldest daughter in the first year, but she fell ill due to childbirth. The old poisonous woman of the Zhou family ignored the body of her eldest son and daughter-in-law, and actually married her eldest son to a wife of Hou Fuping, and killed his Song family's daughter alive.

At this time, if the Song family dared to fight hard and take their daughter's only blood to the Song family to feed, they would not have Zhou Huaiyu who was so struggling today, but at that time, because the Zhou family had just been awarded the title and was a celebrity in the eyes of the saints, many forces in Beijing wanted to make friends with it, no matter how big or small.

If they have even a trace of bad relations with the Zhou family, without the orders of the Zhou family, they will not be able to stay in the capital, and the family business they have earned for more than ten years may be ruined.

It was only at this time that Song Guangfang realized that he took the initiative to find Zhou Mao to cooperate with him, which was himself seeking skin with the tiger!
