Chapter 268: VIPs
As soon as he turned his hand, he had already opened the window of the carriage, and there happened to be a carriage parked outside, which was the magnificent carriage of the lord of Shuyuan.
The of the county lord of Shuyuan, whose pink face still has charm, have appeared on the window of her carriage. I saw that her head was full of gold and jade jewelry, all of which were fine, and as soon as the head stretched out of the window, the sun was already shining brilliantly, and Chen Wenhui couldn't help but look at it.
The two greeted each other through the window. This is also the fashion of the dignitaries and nobles in the capital. Everyone had a splendid carriage, and after meeting acquaintances on the street, they would often pull the carriage aside together and say a few words through the carriage window. If there is nothing urgent, and the relationship between the two people is very good, usually one of them runs to the other carriage to greet for a while.
Chen Wenhui and Lord Shuyuan are old acquaintances. The county lord of Shuyuan is Chen Wenhui's maternal uncle, from the emperor's side, Chen Wenhui has already been named the county lord, even if he is a royal person, therefore, he is also close to the county lord Shuyuan who has royal blood. Also, the sister-in-law of the county lord Shuyuan is Chen Wenhui's aunt, so the relationship between the two is better.
Especially in recent years, Chen Wenhui and the Bai brothers worked together in Nanyang, so the lord of Shuyuan was able to develop the maritime trade business, the business was very good, the assets have increased several times, and he is already a rich man. For Chen Wenhui, who was the initiator and brought her wealth, Lord Shuyuan still likes it very much. Therefore, after the two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, it was mainly Chen Wenhui, a junior, who greeted the county lord Shuyuan. Lord Shuyuan asked, "Where did you come from?" ”
Chen Wenhui said: "Back to my aunt, we just came out of the Zhongyi Mansion. My mother-in-law felt sorry for my young age. I'm afraid that I won't serve my husband well, so I sent a few smart and clever maids to help, I was overjoyed, and I was rushing home to settle it, what is the lord of Shuyuan going to do, so in a hurry? ”
Lord Shuyuan hurriedly said: "Besides, my mother, the eldest princess has been in poor health for the past two days, and she is feeling bored, and she wants to find a few clever servants." But this man is not a thing. You can buy it on the street, and now you can catch it, where is the right one? I'm worried, oops. What did you just say? Do you have a clever man from your mother-in-law? ”
Chen Wenhui hurriedly said: "This can't be given to you." This is what my mother-in-law just rewarded. I haven't brought it back to my house yet. ”
Lord Shuyuan said, "Oops. Isn't it all for my mother, the eldest princess? Can you bear to disappoint her old man? ”
Chen Wenhui made a hesitant look and said: "It stands to reason that the eldest princess is the elder of the royal family, for the country. For the royal family to work all her life, highly respected, our younger generation is very respectful, her old people's needs, not to mention a few maids, just want more things, we can only be happy. However, these people are all rewarded by my mother-in-law? ”
Lord Shuyuan waved his hand and said, "As long as you are willing to cut your love, as for your mother-in-law, there is me." Now I'll take people away first, your mother-in-law, I'll send someone to tell your mother-in-law now, think about it, my mother's thin noodles, your mother-in-law will still give it. ”
Chen Wenhui had no choice but to say: "That's good." Take it away, say hello to the eldest princess on my behalf, and in a few days our husband and wife will come to visit. ”
The county lord of Shuyuan happily took these four people away.
The four people were dumbfounded, they were already dreaming, and they would be concubines in the county lord's mansion in the future, living in brocade clothes and jade food, living in the fairyland-like county lord's mansion, being the master of the house, calling slaves and maids, where could they have thought that before the door was stepped in, they were sent to the eldest princess's mansion on the street. After this, she will be a maid, and she still doesn't know whether she is alive or dead? Where is the future?
The four people immediately cried, and two were ready to resist, but the grandmother beside the county lord of Shuyuan had already prepared, and she restrained these four people at once, gagged her mouth with a handkerchief, and took out a rope to tie the person up neatly. In the blink of an eye, all four people were tied up, and they all gagged their mouths with handkerchiefs, and at this level, can these four people still not understand what is going on? However, it is useless, and can only obey the arrangement of fate.
Chen Wenhui closed the window of the carriage, and the carriage continued to move forward, and Zhao Chongyi was already admired. He said: "Hui'er, you are really a good plan, I think, when my grandmother hears the news, I'm afraid I'm going to vomit blood?" This Shuyuan county lord was invited by Mama Zheng, right? She has a wide face, a big face, and a neat demeanor, and most of the noblewomen in the capital want to let her. Even my mother-in-law never bargained in front of her. It's great that she came out to face Fu Mother. also moved out of the face of the eldest princess, thinking about it, the mother-in-law has nothing to say. ”
Chen Wenhui smiled slightly and said, "This is all calculated. How's that, this show is good, right? ”
Zhao Chongyi said: "It's good-looking, it's just that I'm strange, this Shuyuan County Lord is an arrogant master, how can you invite her?" She's your aunt, huh? ”
Chen Wenhui said: "She is my aunt, the emperor's niece, the only daughter of the eldest princess, and her status is noble. However, I told Mama Zheng one thing, so I asked her to move. ”
Zhao Chongyi hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Chen Wenhui said: "Although the second city, Vermilion Bird City, is already under construction, and more than half of the construction has been completed, the third city, Yumei City, has also begun construction. Not to mention, my brother has already set up on another large island, and when the army arrives and exterminates the natives, the fourth city will be built. The fourth city is a good place, and I sue Mama Zheng that if the county lord Shuyuan takes care of this matter for me, I will allow her to buy the shares of the fourth city. ”
Zhao Chongyi now understood. After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "No wonder that Shuyuan County Lord obediently obeyed, Baba ran over, it turned out to be for money." ”
Chen Wenhui smiled and said: "There are a few people in this world who are not for money. Besides, I asked her to solve four puzzles for me. She doesn't have to pay for it, but she just makes a trip, says a few words, turns around and gets people into the eldest princess's mansion, and she can find an excuse to send them away every few days, and it won't be troublesome at all. That's it, I'll give her a chance to double or even multiply the amount of money invested, okay? It's not good, because of this, she can earn three or five million taels of silver at once. ”
Zhao Chongyi smacked his tongue and said: "This is really a benefit without expense, if I, let alone earn three or five million taels of silver, even if I can earn three or five thousand taels of silver, I am also worth this trip." ”
Chen Wenhui laughed when she was amused.
Zhao Chongyi said: "This Shuyuan county lord is really making a fortune. ”
Chen Wenhui said: "Who earns it is not certain. Let me tell you. She came over and helped me solve four problems, so that these four eyesores could be easily solved, and it would not hurt my reputation, and it was equivalent to a slap in the face of Mrs. Zhao, so that people would not enter the house, see our reality and dirty our place. With so many benefits, it's nothing. The important thing is that because of this, she will put her money into the construction of my new city. Look at it, although I say that I am the richest girl in Da Chu, of course, she is not a girl now, but she can also be regarded as a rich person in Da Chu, in fact, it is just the appearance of beauty, if you really let me take out three or five million taels of silver, I really can't take it out. ”
Zhao Chongyi knew this truth, he said: "I also understand this, your money has been invested in the construction of the new city." That's a lot of money. ”
Chen Wenhui nodded and said: "In the past few years, my business has been doing very well and making a lot of money, especially in Shanghai City, where I have made the most money, but all this money has been invested by me in the construction of Qingchun City." Later, I invested for another three years, but fortunately, now Qingchun City no longer needs me to post money into it, and even make money, but the money I earn, as well as the money I make from doing business now, has been invested in Suzaku City again. That's not enough. Now, I have a third city, Jade Rose City, and I really don't have any money in this city. However, the people of my Qingchun City have been cultivated and become rich, so I will call them to invest in Yumei City, so that not only the construction of Yumei City will be rich, but the people will also find channels for investment and make money. ”
Zhao Chongyi nodded.
Chen Wenhui said: "However, I still want to build a fourth city, and I and the people have no money to invest in this city." What to do? Therefore, I thought that it would be best to choose a few of the rich people in Dachu as partners, so that I also have allies in Dachu, and the province can fight alone, solve my money shortage problem, and make friends. Therefore, the investment in my new city by Lord Shuyuan is a win-win situation. My problem was solved with a big push, and she was able to make money as she wanted, okay? ”
Zhao Chongyi couldn't help but gently stroked his palm and said, "Sister Hui'er, you are really a genius, it's hard for you to come up with the word win-win, it's really like this." It seems that it is great that we and Lord Shuyuan take what we need. It's all winners, and they're all happy. No, I'm wrong, there is still a big loser, and that is the mother-in-law. Now that she knew that the eldest princess had taken those four people away, her face must be very exciting, and she felt comfortable thinking about it. ”
Chen Wenhui smiled mysteriously and said: "Not only that, but I also specially arranged for the two widows I sent out to go to the Zhongyi Mansion with the people of the county lord Shuyuan, at this time, probably, Mrs. Zhao has already begun to vomit blood." ”
Zhao Chongyi couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought of this wonderful scene. (To be continued......)
