Chapter 301: The Cause of the Family's Rise
Su Manman rubbed his sore eyes, so that he could have a normal conversation with Zheng Jingyi. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Eat pineapple crisp? I ordered you a plate, don't you love that? ”
Zheng Jingyi was moved to tears: "Fat girl, do you still remember my preferences?" Say, if you want to do something, I will definitely go to the soup for you, and I will not hesitate. ”
Hey? Why is this conversation so familiar? Su Manman thought about it for a long time and didn't remember why, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
"I came to you to ask you to do me a favor, can you help me check the family history of Lan Fugui, Lan Fugui, the father of Blue Moon, and Zhou Yutong, a big cloth merchant?"
"Why did you remember to look this up? Do you want to learn how they make a fortune? Zheng Jingyi still remembers Su Manman's ideal, counting money and counting to hand cramps, is this to copy the road to making a fortune?
Su Manman glanced at him: "You're thinking too far, right?" The daughter of Zhou Yutong, a big cloth merchant, Zhou Ying died at the flower fair a few days ago and drowned in Qingtan Lake. ”
"Do you suspect that the same people behind her death are the same bad guys who killed Blue Moon last time?" Zheng Jingyi knows everything about such things, "But what does this have to do with the history of the Lan family's Zhou family?" ”
"I have an insider who heard the conversation between Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Yutong, although they didn't say the mastermind behind the scenes, but they said that it had something to do with their fortune, and that person seemed to have hands and eyes. I wondered if I could start with this and see if I could find some clues. ”
"I know, I will check quietly, I won't show my feet, I can't let your second brother not marry a daughter-in-law."
"Huh? Do you know about my second brother? Because he was afraid that the wall would have ears, Su Manman didn't dare to say the name of Blue Moon.
"I've been looking for someone in the northwest to take care of your second brother? He is so high-profile, looking for a daughter-in-law who wants the whole Northwest to know, can I not receive the news? Zheng Jingyi ate the sweet pineapple cake in one bite, and felt that his teeth were about to fall sweet.
"The second brother is really, I will write to him to keep a low profile, now that the wind is so tight, he really doesn't care about it at all."
"I don't blame him, if I ...... If I were with someone I liked, I would be eager to announce that everyone in the world knew about it. Zheng Jingyi lowered his head and took a sip of juice to hide his dark and red face.
"You think about it for a long time, say it when you meet someone you like, and I'll send you a gift." After saying this, Su Manman felt sour, maybe this juice was added less sugar!
Zheng Jingyi was angry when he saw Su Manman so unenlightened, but if he came to a fierce one, he was afraid of scaring her, so he pondered this matter every day, and his hair was about to fall out.
The conversation between the two of them broke up a little unhappily, and they were both secretly angry, and they didn't know what they were angry about, but they felt uncomfortable.
One complains about the amorous feelings, the other really doesn't understand the amorous customs, and both are depressed, but Zheng Jingyi still takes the matter to heart, not only Su Manman is anxious about this matter, but his good friend and future second uncle are also very fond of these things!
He can't come back now, in fact, he specially brought a letter back to Zheng Jingyi to ask him to help, no matter what, he should use twelve points of strength.
Zheng Jingyi is still very reliable, and he has some people under him, and he quickly dug up the affairs of the Lan family and the Zhou family from some previous archives and rumors in the market. Although it is not 100% accurate, there are also eight or nine that are not far from ten.
"There are indeed many strange things about the history of the Lan family and the Zhou family, they are not rich themselves, but these industries created by themselves from scratch. Take Lan Fugui as an example, he was a trotter when he was young, and he made a difference in the price of goods from all over the place, and then he rose for some reason, and many people thought that he had an accurate vision and made a fortune with the money he had saved before.
The situation of the Zhou family was similar, but their ancestors were also famous Shu merchants, and they later fell. Zhou Yutong was not famous when he was young, but later rose suddenly, and was also praised for his accumulation. Zheng Jingyi told Su Manman about what he had found.
Su Manman frowned when he heard this: "These sounds seem to have no flaws, but they can't stand scrutiny everywhere, so no one has ever doubted their sudden wealth?" ”
"Of course there is, there is a family surnamed Jiang who once competed with the Lan family for the imperial offering of tea merchants, but unfortunately the Jiang family fell quickly for some reason, I heard that they also checked the details of the Lan family. One has to suspect that someone is doing something in the dark. ”
"Then where are the people of the Jiang family now?"
"I heard that it has moved to Guanwai, and it will take some time to find out the specific address." Zheng Jingyi thought for a while and said.
"There's definitely a secret to this, but unfortunately we can't get in. Maybe it's a person, maybe it's a thing, there must be an important reason for their rise, but what does this have to do with the death of these little ladies? I can't figure it out! Su Manman was puzzled.
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, there may be more than one such thing, and it may not be that one of them will resist. As long as we move, we can catch the tail, and there is no secret that can be hidden. Zheng Jingyi analyzed.
Su Manman actually felt that his analysis was very reasonable, it was better to be still than to be still, let's wait first!
"Monkey wine, did you go home and bring it to your father? How did he react? Su Manman was more interested in this, and when she took the monkey wine home, the men in the family all fried the pot, and after a few sips, they stopped drinking it, and had to hide it and put it for aging.
In today's world, there is a long-term ancient wine in the family is also a kind of family heritage, whether it is married or married, it is a very face-saving thing to take out.
"My father's mouth is crooked, and he can't wait to sleep and hold it, if my mother hadn't persuaded him to keep it for me to marry, he would have drunk it almost all."
Su Manman also knew that a family war was going to be triggered for this wine. Zhao Chenxi has been more interesting since he returned to the palace, the emperor and the crown prince almost fought for this wine, and in the end, no one was willing to drink it. The emperor also asked his winemakers to study the recipe of monkey wine, but he didn't know if it would succeed, which shows the great charm of this wine.
"Wow, you didn't call me when you met here." Zhao Chenxi broke into the door and shouted that Su Manman was not interesting, and he didn't call her when he came to the Shenbi Pavilion.
"We meet every day, and we have to get together on weekends, what is the novelty!" Su Manman said eloquently.
"Cut, if you're not with me, it's fresh to be with Xiao Zhengzi?" Zhao Chenxi was jealous.
"Okay, I can't stand you anymore, can I invite you to dinner?" Su Manman disarmed and surrendered.
