Chapter 338
When the stone came back in the evening, Zhang Xing had already told Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu were happy. Looking at the house in the town, there is food, drink and monthly money, and the rest of their lives can be regarded as settled.
The dinner was very hearty on this day, and the stones came back just in time for the table.
The next day was Zhang Xing's return day, and both of them got up early in the morning, packed up, and drove two carriages back to Weijiazhuang. Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu each brought their families back, and they gathered in a room. After eating, Shi told Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu about Zhang Xing's preparation for rice grain.
Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu looked at each other, but because Wei Yunhai was also there, they didn't immediately ask what was going on.
Wei Yunhai didn't know those reasons, Zhang Xing had always been sensible, and he felt that what Zhang Xing thought was good was probably not wrong. Moreover, there is an example of Wei Minwen in front. There is indeed a rush to make rice grain. He applauded at the time, and said to Wei Minwen: "Xing'er hasn't touched this line yet, you have been doing it for many years, you have to help her." He turned his head to Wei Minwu and said, "You too." You are all brothers, you have to be like brothers, and you all have to help more about apricots. ”
It made Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu not know what to say.
It was Zhang Xing who came in and called Wei Yunhai out. Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu turned pale.
Zhang Xing's name is Wei Yunhai, and it is for her to marry more than ten acres of land. These places were all picked by Wei Yunhai for her, most of them were on the side of Zhanghe Town, if she wanted to go to Jingkou, she wouldn't be able to take care of this place, and Wei Yunhai had to help her watch it.
As soon as Wei Yunhai left, Wei Minwen got up and closed the door and asked, "Did Xing'er tell you this?" he didn't believe it. That day, when he talked to Wei Minwu about the Zhao family. Zhang Xing was also present. She persuaded him to keep a low profile. Don't overdo it. It makes no sense that Zhang Xingyi went to the Li family, but went to his own death.
Wei Minwu also looked at the stone with a solemn expression, "Stone, shouldn't you provoke her to do this?"
Shi laughed, poured a cup of tea for Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu, and said, "The eldest brother and the second brother want to talk about the Zhao family, right? I also know that this matter is getting bigger, and if I don't have the ability to protect it, I will bring trouble to myself. ”
"Then you instigated her to do it! Do you think that our family's current situation can withstand this disaster?" Wei Minwu said as he looked at the stone coldly.
"How so?" said Stone with a smile. "I have a few pounds and a few taels myself, I know it in my heart, and I can barely manage it, if I say that I am powerful, it is pure bragging, let alone protecting such a belongings. ”
Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu glanced at each other. Wei Minwen has always been not very optimistic about the stone, and he doesn't look at the stone, but only said to Wei Minwu: "I'll go and call Xing'er over, I have to ask her about this." "The stone is the old oilman, his words. Wei Minwen didn't dare to believe it all.
Shi smiled and watched Wei Minwen get up to open the door, and didn't stop her silently. Wei Minwen opened the door. Zhang Xing happened to be at the door and was about to come in, so he smiled and said, "Big brother, how did you know that I was here?"
Wei Minwen grabbed Zhang Xing in without saying a word, and after closing the door, he asked: "I heard that you are going to make rice grain, what is going on? When did your ears become so soft? Don't you know all the details of this matter? I don't dare to come out again, why do you still want to touch this business?"
Zhang Xing looked at the stone. Stone smiled without incident. She knew that he had only opened his mouth, and the reason had not yet been explained. Zhang Xing smiled and said, "Big brother, second brother, this matter is something I have to do myself, not something instigated by a stone." ”
Shi smiled, and then Zhang Xing's words said: "I really think I can give this thing a try, eldest brother, second brother, after listening to us, it is never too late to be in a hurry." ”
Wei Minwen also sat down, "Okay, you say." ”
Shi said: "The Zhao family's disaster came from the rice grain in his hand, and his family's business has become big, especially in the last year, when a big flood fell, the grain in various places rose wildly, but it was still too little." The Zhao family was about to go to the source of the river, and several boatloads of grain were transported from the river, and it took two days to unload. Who in Jianghuai doesn't know that his family has food? Who doesn't keep an eye on his family when he is short of this? So it's really right to say that the eldest brother is careful, he doesn't have the ability, it's better not to touch this business, even if he wants to do this business, he can't be that bird. ”
"Big brother, second brother, they all know where the Zhao family's grain went? Now that the world is in chaos, you can become a bandit if you are a soldier. So no one dared to come forward. They didn't dare to come out, and we just picked up a bargain. Now that I am in the Northwest Army, although I am only a small flag, I have hung the flag of the Northwest Army, and whoever dares to move a knife on our heads will have some scruples. Besides, isn't there a second brother?" Shi looked at Wei Minwu with a smile.
Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu glanced at each other.
"My face isn't that big. Wei Minwen sneered, and said slowly: "Is it the person above you who asked you to do this?" The stone is just a small flag, can he protect such an eye-catching thing with this?
Shi smiled and shook his head, "No, but I will mention this matter to Second Master Shen in a few days, and I think he will be happy to see this thing done." ”
Wei Minwu's face changed suddenly, and he stared at the stone and asked, "Do you mean the second son of the Shen Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong?" Moreover, the Shen family has become more and more publicized in recent years, and he can vaguely guess that the Shen family is planning big things.
What the Shen family plans has little to do with him as a horse racing gang. Although it is said that the stone is in the Northwest Army, it is just a small flag, as long as it is not involved in the axis of the Shen family, the problem is not big, and when he sees that things are not good, he will run back and continue to farm.
But if you step into it with one foot on the stone, then the matter will be a big problem. Defeat and death, it is all light, and the crime of Zhulian is involved, and everyone in this room can't escape. They run horses and make hard-earned money, and there is a way to run in the peaceful years, and there is a way in the troubled times. Either way, peace is paramount.
His father-in-law told him again and again, don't look at the Yun family's business affairs, but if it is involved in the affairs of the imperial court, it is not enough for others to swallow in one bite. So with this group of people, as far away as you can.
Shi glanced at Wei Minwen and said, "When I joined the army, I was brought by Second Master Shen." ”
Wei Minwu stared at Wei Minwen, "Do you know about this?" and looked at Zhang Xing again, "You all know the feelings, but I don't know?"
Wei Minwen opened his mouth, wanting to say that he didn't know, but suddenly remembered the matter of Qingmeng Mountain. At that time, he was with Wang Jiye and others, and followed Shi's senior sister and several mountain bandits from Qingmeng Mountain to hide in Qingmeng Mountain. Later, Aunt Zhang Xing's cousin came and took him down with Wang Jiye and others, and after some explanations, he let him go home.
Because this matter is not trivial, Aunt Zhang Xing's cousin made another package ticket to ensure that Zhang Xing was fine. He is a millet merchant, so where does he dare to ask more? After returning to Zhanghe Town, he did not say anything about this matter to anyone. Naturally, I don't know the whereabouts of the stone and the others.
Later, Zhang Xing also came back, but told him that the stone was taken to the northwest. He listened to it, but he didn't reassure it.
Wei Minwen Xing stopped talking, Wei Minwu held his forehead, and said weakly: "Okay, Xing'er, since you have already thought about it, tell me, what are you going to do?" Since the stone was taken away by Shen Huaijin, the Shen family's boat, they are on it, and if they want to get down, I am afraid that it is impossible now. There is only one step, which is one step.
"After the Zhao family fell, the rice merchants in our place were frightened, and they didn't dare to come forward for a while. If we want to do this, as long as we run it properly and have enough money, it is only a matter of time before it becomes bigger. Stone said with a smile.
Yesterday, Zhang Xing told him that the second shopkeeper of the rice grain shop she had on hand was Zhao Zixing, the son of Zhao Deyi, a former Jianghuai rice merchant, and he also signed a death deed. Although the Zhao family has fallen, his family has accumulated contacts for so many years of making rice and grain. There are ready-made people, and they are not short of money in hand. If they can't make this rice and grain trade bigger, it will be really unreasonable.
Wei Minwu sneered, threw a fruit shell and smashed it on the stone, and said mockingly: "You want to be beautiful, don't be busy for a long time, but make a wedding dress for others." Pulling the banner of the Shen family to make rice grain, no one dares to provoke. But how can other people's flags let you pull in vain? If the Shen family comes to ask you for food, I think you will do something?"
"What should I do?" said Shi Hehe with a smile, "If you give money, you will have money, and if you don't have money, you will have nothing." ”
Wei Minwu laughed, "Hey, Shi, you dare to play this set of laipi with the Shen family, you are brave enough to be fat! You are not afraid of your rice grain shop changing owners." People don't have any characters on hand, and it's just a matter of one sentence to find someone to replace you. ”
Shi Hehe looked at Zhang Xing with a smile and said, "Who said that this rice grain shop is mine? This is my daughter-in-law's dowry, but the shopkeeper of her shop has the means, so the business will be done so well." The Shen family wants my daughter-in-law's dowry, this matter is not authentic, if it spreads, do they want to have a good reputation?"
If the Shen family didn't care about their reputation, they were afraid that they would have followed Liu Shenzhou's old path a long time ago. Right now, there is no chaos in the world, and the Shen family still doesn't dare to tear off the good-looking skin on their faces. They are making rice grain here in Jianghuai, and they are hanging the signboard of the Zhang family, and the Shen family wants to come over and rob it, which is really not good-looking.
Wei Minwen and Wei Minwu glanced at each other. I feel that there is some truth in my heart.
Zhang Xing shook her head and smiled in her heart. This kid has always been foolish. In fact, they were not afraid of the Shen family's hard seizure, and they mainly pressed the treasure on Shen Huaijin. Once the chaos starts, grain and grass are the top priority, Shen Huaijin is not a fool, he will not selflessly push the chips in his hands to face.
Shi Shi looked at Wei Minwen, then at Wei Minwu, paused, and said: "Big brother, second brother, since I mentioned this matter to Second Master Shen, if there is really trouble, naturally he will be covered by this big umbrella." We are poor and white, even if we make a little money, it is not a loss. (To be continued......)
