Luzhou. 【Book by】

There are always many legends in places where commerce and trade are developed, there are rich people who rise overnight, and there are also century-old clans who disappear without a trace overnight, no matter which kind of legend rises or disappears, for the vast majority of people, it is just a few days of conversation in the streets and alleys, everyone has their own days to live, people who are running around for life can not maintain their curiosity for a long time, and people who have leisure and leisure know what to inquire about and what not to do.

Qin's firm is one of the many legends, no one knows their origin, they claim to be from the capital, where exactly, no one knows, only know that they started to do pastry business, food, as long as it is delicious, do not worry about not selling, they make more delicious than others, it will naturally flourish within a few days of opening, and it will not take long to open a branch, and then open a restaurant, and then what to make money and what to do, in just a few years, it has become a large-scale Qin's firm.

Because of their mysterious origins, at the beginning, everyone believed that they must have the support of the nobles of the capital behind them, and those who don't know the details can't be provoked, and they are also foreign monks who chant scriptures, if they are locals who know the roots, suddenly business is booming, not to mention outsiders, the first one who is so jealous that he wants to stab you is the neighbor who usually goes up to the tree to dig out wild eggs and goes down to the river to fish for the iron buddy, and there are fewer people who don't know each other, so there is more inexplicable jealousy and a mystery that makes people scruple, and the appearance adds up to much safer.

After they grow stronger, they will naturally have more protection when they make friends with powerful people, and no one dares to provoke them.

However, there are no absolutes in the world, and the way to survive in the peaceful and prosperous times is not good in the troubled times, and the Qin family firm has recently faced a serious crisis.

The world is in turmoil, Luzhou where they are located is now the territory of King Ping, everyone speculated that they may have the background of the powerful people in the capital, so no one dares to provoke, but now it is the most powerful King Ping in this land who wants to make them bleed, no matter who is behind them, it is useless.

Inside the Qin family's mansion.

Qin Qing, the son of the Qin family, was anxiously looking at his mother who had been thinking about it with his eyes closed. He didn't dare to disturb, so it was easy to wait until Mrs. Qin opened her eyes, and he looked at his mother with expectant eyes.

Mrs. Qin avoided her son's gaze and slowly shook her head: "No." ”

Qin Qing suddenly despaired. couldn't help but say: "Mother, why not, Miss Liu, you also know, you also said that she is knowledgeable and generous, such a girl is top-notch even in the capital, so it is easy for Master Liu to marry his daughter to me, why don't you agree?"

Madame Qin sighed: "My son, you are not a fool, you should know. Master Liu is not interested in you, but our Qin family, to be precise, the Wanguan family wealth behind our Qin family. ”

"So what? Marriage is for the sake of marrying two surnames, if it doesn't help the family at all, why should people marry a good girl into our merchant family?" Qin Qing looked at Mrs. Qin pleadingly. "Mother, this family affair is also beneficial to our Qin family, the Liu family is a century-old family, and their daughter's upbringing is excellent, especially paying attention to women's morality, and the daughter must abide by the three obedience and four virtues when she marries in, even if our family declines in the future. Miss Liu will not cross the river and tear down the bridge to marry someone else. ”

Mrs. Qin still shook her head.

Qin Qing turned his gaze for help to Master Qin, who had not spoken, and said, "Dad, you have a word!"

Facing his son's prayer, Master Qin couldn't bear to refuse, turned to his wife and said, "Madam, look. The Liu family didn't ask for any additional requirements, but it was just a thick dowry, it was not easy for this family to raise a girl, and it was also appropriate to give more dowry. ”

Mrs. Qin looked at Master Qin with some incredulity and said, "Master." Why are you confused, haven't I told you many times, the money of this business house is not ours, my son admires Miss Liu, and if he wants to be crooked for a while, what can you say? A dowry is said lightly, can we take it?"

Qin Qing was a little unconvinced and said: "Why can't you take it out, mother, you have made your business so big over the years, I don't know how many times it was back then, and now we should take a little as a reward, in the business house, the capable shopkeeper still takes a lot of monthly salaries, just as our family's silver over the years?"

"Shut up, who taught you to say such ungrateful words?" Mrs. Qin shouted angrily, "How can the grace of saving your life be repaid with silver? Our Qin family has every one of today's qiē is given by a benefactor, and you are not allowed to say such ungrateful words again." ”

Mrs. Qin, who had always been kind, was so angry that the Qin father and son lowered their heads.

Qin Qing was afraid, but when he thought of Miss Liu's flower and moon appearance, he became bold again, and said: "Mother, aside from anything else, the Liu family is a local family, if there is a big chaos today, the merchants are afraid, and many of them are closed and hid with the silver, if we can marry the Liu family, it is also a kind of protection for the Qin family's business house, lest someone beat our idea and no one will come forward, then the dowry should be used as a protection fee." ”

Seeing her son, who has always been obedient and honest, say such quibbles, Mrs. Qin is angry, this must be someone instigating, otherwise her son would not be able to say this, thinking of the Liu family's idea of beating herself without using it, she was resentful, but after thinking about it, some of her son's concerns are not unreasonable, and now the Qin family business house is fat in the eyes of others, and there must be a next one if you don't bite it.

After thinking about it, she closed her eyes, opened them after a while, and said: "Okay, you tell the Liu family, we won't give more dowry, just compare the previous sons-in-law of the Liu family, give a center, if the Liu family is still willing, then we will marry this family, if not, forget it, the Liu family is not afraid of being said to sell their daughter, we are also afraid that people will say that they will spend money to buy a daughter-in-law." ”

I thought that there was not much hope for this matter, but I didn't expect Mrs. Qin to be relieved, Qin Qing was overjoyed, and nodded again and again, thinking that the Liu family was not shameless enough to dare to blatantly say, selling their daughter, how much silver does it cost, it should be thinking about putting a long line to catch a big fish, this Qin family's money will not be all his in the future, as long as the family affairs are finalized now, raw rice is cooked into mature rice, and I am afraid that it will not be possible in the future?

is Miss Liu, who has become her own daughter-in-law, and she is not afraid that she will not have the same heart as herself.

As for the mother's concerns, it's not that he is ungrateful, the so-called benefactor has not been heard from for many years, even if he escaped the catastrophe back then, a weak woman is difficult to survive in this troubled world, it is estimated that she has already been buried in a foreign country, even if she can find it, she can return the silver of the year several times, how can she go bankrupt and give it to it? There is no reason for his family to work for all these years, all for others to make wedding dresses.

After thinking about it like this, Qin Qing hurriedly found the best matchmaker in the city, and after a few explanations, he asked people to come to the door to propose marriage.
