Chapter Eighty-Three: Encountering Obstacles Again When Going Out

In fact, sometimes, death is not terrible, what is terrible is the process of waiting for death. - Mo Xiangsi

***

Mo Xiangsi didn't say what he wanted after all, so he fell asleep and left.

The next day, everyone was in a daze, but on the third day, they were all ready to go.

Mo Xiangsi went to the silk village with Yin Mo early in the morning, and saw that the goods in the silk village were ready to go.

Yin Mo is now learning to do business, and cautiously and carefully followed the shopkeeper Qin to check the silk one last time.

Mo Xiangsi looked at Yin Mo and was also pleased: "Yin Mo, Shopkeeper Qin, it's up to you along the way!" You must be careful on the road, the waterproofing of this cloth must be done, don't go wrong! ”

Yin Mo and Shopkeeper Qin both nodded in response.

Mo Xiangsi also laughed: "Go ahead, let Yuyan escort you out of the city." ”

Before Mo Xiangsi's words were finished, he saw Rong Yun rushing over from the Fang family in a hurry.

Mo Xiangsi was surprised: "What happened?" ”

Rong Yun gasped and handed a post to Mo Xiangsi: "Senior sister, the post of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce Council, let you go to the Guan family in seven days to discuss matters." ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts were all groaning, after the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce was troubled by Mo Xiangsi last time, it had stopped a lot, but if it was said that the Fang family was invited to discuss the matter, it had never been before.

Since this is the case, it must be the same as last time, and it is also related to the Fang family, but what is the matter? Mo Xiangsi has no bottom in his heart.

"Could it be that they know about this batch of silk?" Yin Mo said nervously.

Mo Xiangsi shook his head: "No, if it's about this batch of silk, they should bring someone to stop it today, but this post is seven days later, I'm afraid it's something else." You don't have to worry about that. In any case, I think it is also related to the property of the Fang family, you have to leave quickly and send this batch of silk out as much as possible! The further you go, the better! ”

Yin Mo said: "Senior sister, don't worry, wait for our good news at home, we will definitely protect this batch of silk." Just wait for our triumphant return. ”

Mo Xiangsi also smiled at Yin Mo and nodded: "Let's get on the road." ”

Watch the convoy leave all the way unimpeded. This is also the most comfortable thing for Mo Xiangsi for such a long time. But holding the invitation card in his hand, Mo Xiangsi felt uneasy for no reason.

After Mo Xiangsi went back. I always think of Yin Mo's words when he parted, returned triumphantly, returned triumphantly, when he left Acacia Gate. That's what she said to Xiao Yanzi, but when she really returns triumphantly......

Mo Xiangsi didn't dare to recall. I just feel very unsure.

Mo Xiangsi looked at the rain outside the window, and he didn't know when it would stop, but for the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce seven days later, Mo Xiangsi couldn't sit still. I have to send someone to inquire, this kind of thing, Rong Yun is still not as good as Yu Yan after all.

It's just that Yu Yan is busy reading now. There were many things that Mo Xiangsi didn't want to bother him, so he could only let Fang Zhong put down the things in his hand. Personally went.

It was cloudy and rainy, Fang Zhong hurried back with an umbrella, shook the rain on the hem of his clothes and followed into the house.

Mo Xiangsi was sitting at the desk near the window in the study, watching Fang Jin write, but she was very uneasy now, so she was just sitting there with a cup of tea and distracted. It wasn't until he saw Fang Zhong come back that Mo Xiangsi finally couldn't help but ask, "How?" ”

Fang Zhong said: "Madame, these days, you don't know, the silk shop in Jiangnan is also like this day, as if it has suffered an autumn rainstorm, and the silk villages that the third master sued at the beginning have either paid a lot of money to Zheng Lu and have been slaughtered severely, or they can't pay the money at all and go bankrupt directly." ”

Mo Xiangsi nodded: "It seems that this time I went to the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce to discuss the matter, and I am afraid that it is the matter of this silk village." ”

Fang Zhong nodded: "It's just that this matter has nothing to do with our Fang family, this Zheng Lu has said that our Fang family is not guilty, what does the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce want to do?" ”

Mo Xiangsi heard him mention Zheng Lu, and suddenly asked again: "How is Zheng Lu?" He escaped from the death row in the prison, shouldn't he be implicated? Why is there no movement at all? ”

Fang Zhong said: "Madam, do you think Zheng Lu is greedy for himself with that money?" It is not that he has been able to stay in this position for so many years, and he has no ability at all, and a large amount of money has been used by Zheng Lu to settle the matter of the escape of the prisoners in Hangzhou. Moreover, Zheng Qian has also woken up! I heard that Tian Tian gritted his teeth and said that it was the prisoner released by our Fang family who wanted to come to our Fang family for revenge. ”

Mo Xiangsi's brows furrowed tightly: "Naturally, there is a time for him to take revenge, Zheng Lu has not moved for the past two days, I am afraid that he is waiting for the day when he will pay taxes after the autumn." ”

Fang Zhong nodded: "In this way, it makes sense, this time Zheng Lu has some relations, and he uses the silver of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce silk and satin, and the people of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce are afraid that they will not be able to sit still, Zheng Lu has already fished so much silver from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, our Fang family's fat meat, no matter what, they have to take a bite first." ”

Mo Xiangsi nodded: "I just don't know, what name they use." ”

Fang Zhong said: "Madam, on the day of the discussion, I will go with you." ”

Mo Xiangsi nodded: "This is natural." It's just that Yin Mo and they have been out for so long, and they can't catch up with that batch of silk, so that's fine, and we'll find a way to do the rest. ”

Fang Jin didn't understand what they were saying, he just took the words in his hand and smirked and showed them to Mo Xiangsi: "Look, look at ......"

Mo Xiangsi looked at it, but his mind became more and more uneasy.

After a few months, Mo Xiangsi was invited to the hall of the Guan family again. It's just that when he came back this time, Mo Xiangsi saw that the people of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce were all wilted, as if they had been stripped of a layer of skin, Mo Xiangsi really felt that Yu Yan's words were correct at this time, if there was no official behind him, this businessman would really be bad.

Mo Xiangsi looked at the hall where he still had no place, but he was not angry, he only looked at Guan Guangzhan who was sitting on the main seat and said: "I haven't seen you for a few months, don't come to the old man Guan unharmed!" ”

Guan Guangzhan glanced at Mo Xiangsi coldly, this woman was still the same as before, it was really annoying, so he also sneered: "The blessing of the Fang family." I'm still tough old bones. Mrs. Fang, do you know what our Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce is looking for you today? ”

Mo Xiangsi sneered and played with his handkerchief and said, "Alas, if Old Man Fang has something to say, don't ask me." Anyway, it's useless for me to say it, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce is the same every time it is discussed, and there is still no share of our Fang family, and I think that only when we divide up our family's property, will we have the Fang family's share. Go ahead. In what name are you going to rob my family's money today? ”

Guan Guangzhan was not angry, but said leisurely: "It's not good for a little girl to be too sharp-toothed, and sometimes she will bite herself." Today, our predecessors of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce are here. I want to tell you about your Fang family's private spinning of cotton silk and disrupting the order of the silk industry in Jiangnan! ”

Mo Xiangsi was stunned: What? This also blames me? What kind of crime is this? Are you crazy?

Mo Xiangsi sneered: "Old man Guan, I think your old bones are really not very tough, at least this memory is not enough." I think when I was in the government office. Master Zheng has judged it clearly enough, and the people of Jiangnan are also witnesses, it is a false accusation, and our Fang family has never bought fake cloth at all. This matter has nothing to do with our Fang family, and those people are just to blame, and they are the ones who disturb the order of Jiangnan silk. If they are to be punished, shouldn't they be punished? ”

Guan Guangzhan said: "As the saying goes. The law does not blame the public, this matter is caused by your Fang family, so naturally you must blame the head and lenient its obedience. ”

I rub! What the is that!

Mo Xiangsi rolled up her sleeves and fought with this old man, but now, she married into the Fang family and couldn't bear it.

Guan Guangzhan continued: "This is the first, and second, your Fang family disregarded the righteousness of the alliance and sued the colleagues of the Chamber of Commerce, causing so many silk villages of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce to go bankrupt......"

Mo Xiangsi didn't wait for Guan Guangzhan to finish speaking, so he sneered: "Old man Guan said this is really interesting, what happened to me if they broke the law?" Could it be because you know that someone else has killed someone in the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and you still have to help him cover up the past? That's an accomplice, and you're going to sit together! ”

"You! Mrs. Fang, you really don't understand the rules when you speak! ”

Mo Xiangsi sneered: "I'm talking about the word 'reason'!" It's not like you, vexatious! ”

"Mrs. Fang, I'm telling you this for your own good! Since you don't abide by the rules of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, then don't blame us for expelling your Fang family from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce! Guan Guangzhan looked at Mo Xiangsi, who didn't eat oil and salt, and really wanted to drag her out and beat her.

When Mo Xiangsi heard this, his brows were also tightly furrowed, and just when Mo Xiangsi was about to start a unified rebuttal, he saw a prefect's official hurriedly come to pass the word.

Everyone was shocked, and saw that the official was also in a hurry, and when he came in, he saluted Guan Guangzhan directly, and said, "Old man Guan, the prefect, please come over to the mansion." ”

Guan Guangzhan was also surprised, and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to summon the old man?" ”

The official did not shy away from it, because after all, they would know about this matter sooner or later, and the uproar of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce was about to come in advance.

"Because of the heavy rain for several days, the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal burst its embankment! Thousands of flooded fertile land, countless villages, heavy casualties, and now the treasury is empty, I hope the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce can contribute! ”

Mo Xiangsi was shocked, this Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce is really not a good place, what is the poverty of Zhongzhou, and everything has to be contributed by the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce?

Mo Xiangsi looked at Guan Guangzhan: "What did Old Man Guan just say?" Want me to quit the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce? ”

As soon as everyone heard about the bursting of the embankment of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, their hearts were all overturned, who still had the heart to care about Mo Xiangsi's affairs, Guan Guangzhan glared at Mo Xiangsi coldly, then hurriedly changed his clothes and went to the government office, and this Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce's deliberations were also over.

Mo Xiang thought that eighty percent of the above was to send the shopkeeper down to check the accounts. Think about your family's account books again, because the land property should be lost, presumably this catastrophe of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, the Fang family is unhindered, and once the flood disaster occurs, it is very likely that the tax will be exempted for three years, and the Fang family's land can be regarded as really earned!

Just when Mo Xiangsi was complacent and about to take Fang Zhong back, Fang Zhong suddenly said nervously: "Madam, the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal has burst its embankment!" So the eighth master, they ...... They are taking the line of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal! (To be continued) R655
