274. Chapter 274
Cao Kui sent Su Liu out of the study, his brows furrowed, his fingers curled up on the table and tapped, duh, duh, duh, emitting a rhythmic rhythm.
"Sir, you called me?" The chief manager of Cao Mansion came to the study and asked respectfully.
"Well, you go and put a sticker for the Sun family in the city, and say that I want to visit the Sun family." Cao Kui commanded lightly.
The Sun family?
Manager Cao was stunned for a moment, the Sun family is a grain merchant, and it is also the largest grain merchant in Changping County, and the Sun family and the Cao family also have business contacts, because the Sun family's grain is not only bought in Changping County, but also in other remote places, which needs to be transported to Caoyun.
"Yes, sir!" Although he had doubts, Chief Manager Cao still responded.
"The two warehouses where we store the grain, you can rely on someone to take care of it, and then find some people to buy the grain, fill the warehouse, and try to collect the old grain from last winter, so as not to attract people's attention."
Chief Manager Cao blinked, and when he saw Cao Kui's solemn face, he finally couldn't help it, and asked tentatively: "Master, but what's wrong?" ”
Cao Kui looked at the chief manager Cao, who was also the loyal confidant of the Cao family, and he couldn't hide it, so he lowered his voice and said, "In the future, it is estimated that there will be a war." ”
"What?" Chief Cao screamed.
The Great Qi Dynasty has been peaceful and peaceful, and there has been no war for many years, so why is it suddenly about to fight?
He suddenly remembered that Su Liu had come to Cao's Mansion today, and Su Liu's future husband was the famous General Zhenwei, so this was the news brought by Su Liu?
"Master, but Miss Su?"
Cao Kui nodded and said, "I don't know when this war will start, and the war may not affect us, but it is better to be prepared and prepared, so as not to be able to prepare as soon as the situation becomes chaotic." ”
"No wonder, I just said that in the past few days, there are many more homeless people in the city." Chief Manager Cao muttered, and said, "Don't worry, master, I will definitely do this matter myself." ”
"Hmm!" Cao Kui nodded with his hands behind his back and said, "Don't be too public, after all, this matter has not been reported, so as not to cause panic among the people." ”
Mr. Cao has followed Cao Kui since he was a child, and naturally knows the severity, after all, the news has not spread, but he has stored a large amount of grain, this one is not careful, and the businessmen next to him will follow suit, the price of this grain will inevitably soar, and if the people can't buy food with silver, they will naturally panic.
"There has always been a granary in our house, and if anyone asks, we will deal with it with the saying of exchanging old grain for new grain." Chief Cao thought for a moment.
"That's a good statement, you have full authority to host it, I plan to go to Shandong next time in two days, you can prepare." Cao Kui stroked his beard and said.
Su Liu reminded him that he could earn more money when the silver was gone, but his reputation could not be earned easily, if he used it properly this time, he might be able to accumulate some good reputation, and Cao Mingzhu would also have some confidence in the future.
Now that the Song family has been delaying family affairs, isn't it just taking into account his identity as a businessman?
Cao Kui sighed, for the sake of his precious daughter, he is opportunistic, and he must do it.
Thinking of Su Liu's girl, Cao Kui said to Mr. Cao again: "On the day I went to Shandong, if Miss Su has something to ask, you can respond and give the greatest convenience." ”
Chief Manager Cao nodded again and again, the Cao family is now holding the thighs of the Song family, and also holding the thighs of Su Liu's side, so naturally they can't be lazy.
Su Liu came to Cao Kui to help buy grain, firstly, because he knew many businessmen and had a wide range of roads, and secondly, there were also mutually beneficial and mutually beneficial ingredients, and the grain was stored enough, if the war was tense in the future and the grain was tight, Cao Kui could also release the grain in his hand, whether it was good deeds or business, he could always get a good reputation.
A businessman has a bad reputation, but a philanthropist is different!
She wanted to buy more grain herself, but unfortunately, she didn't have much money on hand, after all, she had spent a lot of money to buy land and house in the early stage, and the investment in the Ejiao workshop did not receive the gross profit so quickly.
Su Liu calculated that now their family's silver is only about 1,000 taels.
More than a thousand taels, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is an astronomical amount, but in Su Liu's eyes, it is really about the same as ten taels, and it is really a matter of money when it is needed urgently.
Without silver, no matter how much she has a plan, she can't carry it out, but fortunately, the current food is about one or two stones, and she can't buy more food, but she can save enough for the family to chew for a year or two, and she can always do it.
Therefore, Su Liu planned to leave two hundred taels of silver for maneuvering, and the rest of the silver was used to buy grain, but unexpectedly, when he was dozing, Ning Guang sent a pillow!
"What is this?" Su Liu looked at Song Xiao in front of him with a shocked face.
Song Xiao had just returned from Shangjing and brought Su Liu the things that Ning Guangtuo had brought him.
What Ning Guang gave was a wooden box, the wooden box was just made of ordinary pear blossom wood, the box was ordinary, but the things inside were unusual.
A red sandalwood private seal, engraved with Ning Guang's words, a stack of title deeds, an emerald jade jade hairpin, and a letter at the bottom of the box.
"He asked me to give it to you." Song Xiao was as awkward as before, but the eyes that looked at Su Liu at this time were a little complicated, especially when he swept the wooden box in her hand, the scene of Ning Guang finding him once again appeared in his mind.
"I was named Marshal of Anguo, and I am about to go to Mobeiping to fight, you can bring this box back for me and hand it to Su Liu." Ning Guang handed him a wooden box.
Song Xiao raised his eyebrows, glanced at the box he handed over, but didn't take it, and asked, "What is this?" ”
"All my possessions." Ning Guang looked calm.
Song Xiao was stunned and looked at him like a madman: "Are you crazy?" I don't seem to know you very well. ”
It means, we don't know each other, you give me something, aren't you afraid that I will swallow it privately?
"We really don't know each other."
"Then you still ......"
"But will you? Song Xiao, the most favored noble son of the Marquis of Anqing, the proud son of the sky, what do you want? Would you afford to look at this idea? Ning Guang said calmly.
Okay, who doesn't like to listen to compliments, Song Xiao was a little proud, but he just didn't want Ning Guang to get his wish, so he deliberately said: "General, no one will think that there is a lot of silver, the general has been fighting for many years, this family is not 120,000, I am not short of silver, and I will not mind more silver." ”
"A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, Song Xiao, you are the person I can trust Ning Guang. I can come to you today, naturally I have some consideration, if you are the kind of person who is greedy for this idea of dead things, I will come to you to shoot yourself in the foot? ”
Song Xiao was a little uncomfortable, coughed, and said, "If you don't compliment me, I won't believe it, a big general, I can't find a useful person to send this thing." ”
"I said, you're someone I can trust." Ning Guang lowered his eyelids.
Well, it's really not interesting to talk to a serious and serious person. In the past few days since Ning Guang returned to Shangjing, he can know a little bit about the bad things in the Marquis of Guangning's mansion.
Thinking that Ning Guang didn't have a trustworthy family, but came to find him, an outsider, to trust this thing, and remembered that he had squeezed himself in the past, Song Xiao couldn't help but gloat, and said sarcastically: "Also, a huge Guangning Marquis Mansion is about to be inherited by a concubine, and your father is also a wonder, and it is a reason for you to believe it." ”
Ning Guang's eyes narrowed, he stood up, and said coldly: "Send it to her." Saying that, it didn't matter whether Song Xiao should or not, he turned around and left.
"Ning Zhenguang, do you know the idiom that Huaibi is guilty? You and Su Liu are not married, if you give this thing to her, it's no different from throwing her a hot potato? It's good that you're good, if it's a short-lived, she's a peasant girl who is no different from an orphan girl, can she carry the Marquis of Guangning Mansion and keep this thing? Song Xiao really didn't want to curse him, but he still wanted to make it clear, did he know what it meant to give Su Liu all his belongings?
Ning Guang was shocked, turned around, looked at Song Xiao and said, "If I am a short-lived person, please take care of her with the third prince and protect one or two." Song Xiao, this is what I Ning Zhenguang owes you, whether I am here or not, I always owe you a favor. As he spoke, he gave a military salute to Song Xiao in a dignified and solemn manner.
Song Xiao was stunned, subconsciously avoided, and when he came back to his senses, Ning Guang had disappeared, he snorted, gritted his teeth at the empty room and said: "Grass, I know that this person is not well-intentioned, this is to lure me into a trap, who the fuck said that the soldier is a rectum, this Nima is a liar at all, and the tricks are almost the same." ”
With compliments, military salutes, and one or two more points of atmosphere, the final purpose is to coax him to be Su Liu's backer, if Ning Guang has an accident in the future, he has to protect Su Liu to inherit all his things safely.
Su Liu listened to Song Xiao's words, his nose was sour, and he pinched the box in his hand, his eyes were red.
Ning Guang's intentions, how could she not know that Ning Guang entrusted Song Xiao to hand over these things to her, why not find them for her? If he can't come back, these gold and silver treasures will be Su Liu's, and he will not worry about eating and drinking in the future. He entrusted all his belongings to her, not to his father and relatives, he regarded Su Liu as the closest person!
Song Xiao saw her tears rolling in her eyes, so he coughed and said, "Don't worry too much, he is a famous young general who has won countless battles, and he will come back this time." ”
"I'm not worried, he can't come back, these things are all mine." Su Liu said stiffly, but his heart hurt very much, and his tears couldn't help falling down, and he scolded hatefully: "That grave egg, if you don't come back, I will take this large amount of money and find a better, more handsome and more responsible man than him to marry." ”
It sounded like he was scolding Ning Guang, but Song Xiao heard it in his ears, but how could he feel that these words were very sad, and looked at the sky silently, what happened to these two people? This battle hasn't started yet, but the drama of life and death has come first, but this drama is uncomfortable.
Ning Guang, that bastard, it's really good to come back, otherwise, he is planing, and he will be dug out and beaten severely, who asked him to design him!
Eh, Song Xiao, whose corpse are you whipping? Is it good not to bring such a heavy taste?
The peerless little S Song Xiao said: Is it that Yan has been updated less recently, but they have love for Yan Mu? Usually busy, it's rare to be lazy on weekends, she's really guilty! However, I still lick my face and kneel to beg for a monthly pass, the last two days of the monthly pass is one top two, love and love her, you guys will break out, the tiger touches ~ There must be two more today, but not now, cough cough drift away
