Although the Zheng family has left the country, the second brother Zheng is the descendant of the third room, Zeng Zhiqing is naturally not good at being the master of the uncle, and only talked to the third master Zeng a few times, but the third master Zeng replied vaguely, and the second brother Zheng is far away in Guangzhou, Zeng Zhiqing has no choice, only the second brother Zheng is still on the list of the Zeng family.

mentioned the second brother, Yan Ran did not ignore the gloom in the eyes of Aunt Zheng, if the second brother Zheng got rid of his nationality, he would be able to leave the Zeng family and live in Yangzhou with his father, and then he would be able to find a similar girl to be his daughter-in-law. But now, the whole family is outside, only the second brother Zheng is still inside, and they are not allowed to meet, the happier Aunt Zheng is in Yangzhou, the more she misses her son in Guangzhou.

"Mother, you know the temper of the third master, the most shrewd, the second brother is not so capable, and the third master is only afraid that he will readily agree. But when the second brother went to Guangzhou, he wanted to do something well, so that the third master would be grateful and let him out as soon as possible. ”

"If it were someone else, it would be like this, but the third master, it may not be." Aunt Zheng read a sentence before saying to her daughter: "That's it, don't say these frustrating words." Let's talk about your second brother, your second brother is really born smart, this has been to Guangzhou for less than two years, and he has figured out all the way, did you mention in your letter last time, you want to do spice business, you are exploring, your second brother said in this letter, he has a good way of spices, if my uncle is willing, he will come from Guangzhou. ”

This is really a surprise, Yanran sat up straight: "Whether you want to or not, my brother will also come to Guangzhou, if you count it, if my brother leaves at this moment, I am afraid that I can spend the New Year in Yangzhou." Oh, it's okay now, it's a family reunion. ”

Aunt Zheng wants to say that her daughter thinks of beauty, but she can calculate carefully, if someone sends a letter to Guangzhou at this time, hurry up, if the second brother Zheng leaves after receiving the letter, it will be almost the middle of the month in Yangzhou, and it will be just right to celebrate the New Year in Yangzhou. As soon as she thought of this, Aunt Zheng couldn't wait to write to her son immediately. Yanran knew her mother's intentions, so she asked Qiulan to bring a pen and paper to write a good letter to Second Brother Zheng, and let people send it out to find someone to send to Guangzhou.

Seeing that the letter was sent, Aunt Zheng recited Amitabha, hoping that her son could rush to Yangzhou and have a reunion with the family.

Aunt Zheng had a heart, and played with her grandson for a long time, and then went home with Yanran for dinner. When Aunt Zheng left, Rong Qi also came home, and as soon as she entered the house, Yanran covered her nose with her hand: "Who are you going to socialize with today, this wine tastes so big." ”

Rong Qi saw Yanran holding his son, and originally wanted to step forward to take over his son and play with his son, but when he heard Yanran's words, he hurriedly raised his arm and sniffed his body, and hurriedly said: "It's really a big smell of wine, so I just let them bring hot water, and I'll take a bath, so that I can play with my son." ”

Yanran asked people to bring hot water, and found out the clothes, Rong Qi took a bath inside, and Yan Ran sat outside with her son in her arms, talking to Rong Qi with questions and answers. Hearing that Second Brother Zheng had a way of good spices, Rong Qi's spirit perked up: "This is good, the Qin family's side, although it is a great help, but after all, these spices are counted, and they must do their best before they can reach us." I have always wanted to go to Guangzhou to find a good way to enter spices, but I am worried that I will go at a loss, and if I can't find it, I may be deceived. ”

Buying and selling goods, there is a way to sell it, that is the only way to make money, a lot of rare things, the way is tightly occupied by people, and they are unwilling to say one or two, which is also the common nature of merchants. Yan Ran heard Rong Qi's words and said, "This is a good idea, but will the Qin family think that we are robbing them of their business?" ”

Although he knew that Yan Ran couldn't see it, Rong Qi still shook his head inside: "No, Uncle Qin and I have already agreed that this business will make money, in addition to the strange goods to live in, it must always be within the strange goods, and sell more." Moreover, it is better for the Qin Rong family to join forces in this business than for other people to come and grab business on a different day. After all, this is not a lonely, we are allowed to do it, and no one else is allowed to do it. ”

"It's good that Uncle Qin can think like this, otherwise like the Zhou family, it will make people sigh." Referring to the Zhou family, Rong Qi hooked his lips and smiled, the Zhou family is already the fourth generation in Yangzhou, Master Zhou is fine, but the sons of the Zhou family are inevitably a little embarrassed. Otherwise, Master Zhou would not have wanted to fight the Rong family's idea, but it's a pity that his idea was crooked.

The Zhou family is like this now, if Uncle Zhou and the second master don't wake up, I'm afraid that in another ten years, Master Zhou will not be there, and there will be no name of the Zhou family on the ground in Yangzhou at that time.

"Do you think I'm not right? Why haven't you spoken for a long time? Yan Ran didn't get a response from her husband, and raised her voice inside.

Rong Qi had already walked out in his underwear, and took advantage of the situation to hold his son in his hand, Brother Gen saw his father, and went to bite his face with drool, Rong Qi couldn't dodge it, and was bitten by his son. Yanran wiped the saliva off Rong Qi's face with a handkerchief: "Your son is teething these days, and everyone bites it, so at this time, you can bear it." ”

Rong Qi stretched his son's mouth a little wider, and when he really saw two rows of little white teeth, he couldn't help but kiss his son on the face: "This child is really only worried about life." Yan Ran thumped him on the chest: "What, what I just said, you haven't answered yet, what I said, right?" ”

Rong Qi smiled, hugged his son and lay down on the recliner, Brother Gen simply lay on Rong Qi's body, crawling around, with Yanran beside him, Rong Qi was not worried about his son falling, and fished out a snack placed next to him to tease his son, and then said what he thought to Yanran.

"Is that really the case?" Seeing Yanran frowning, Rong Qi pinched his wife's nose: "How many people who look vigorous have fallen in just one day." Hugh said that the Zhou family, just said that the Wu family, the richest man in Yangzhou in the past, at that time, there were 32 Zhuangzi by the Slender West Lake, and the Wu family accounted for eight of them. In addition to its own wharf, Wanjia can also account for half of the big wharf. Such people, even the subordinates who are called, many of them don't know how to do things, and the Wu family has been in Yangzhou City for more than two hundred years, but it can be upside down, but only one year. ”

"I've also heard about the Wu family, how did it happen?" Yan Ran asked curiously, Rong Qi sighed: "Actually, it's just a little thing, because the Wu family has a big business, when they buy goods, many of them don't give cash, and they go to settle the bill every other day." This is the norm. But that year, I met a silk seller, only two hundred taels, a small business, and wanted cash. The Wu family refused, saying that it had never been so reasonable, and when the dispute started, the silk seller was injured. The Wu family is powerful, and they don't take it to heart, but they give a few taels of medicine and it's over. Who knew that it was rumored that the Wu family didn't have much silver, and they refused to give out even two hundred taels. This spread to ten, ten, hundreds, and suddenly countless people went to the door of the Wu family to ask for payment. The Wu family was willing to settle the knot first, but the goods were not sold out, and there was really no cash, which proved more and more that what was said was right, the Wu family was only strong outside, so many people couldn't sit still and came to the door one after another. By the time the Wu family's family knew about it, it was irreparable. There are even shop managers who rolled up their bags and ran away. ”

So the prodigious Wu family fell like this, and when those accounts were completely disposed of, all that was left was a bunch of goods that could not be sold at a price, and those goods that were worthless were sold, and the properties of the family were collected in various ways, and there was no surplus of seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver. With so much money, it is still a rich family, but in the eyes of the Wu family, it is not enough to spend even a year. So he had to take the silver, go back to his hometown with his family, and never enter Yangzhou City again.

"The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an anthill, that's the reason." Yan Ran sighed before saying: "Today, Mrs. Lin sent Su's mother to say something, I'm afraid it's such a small thing, but if it is put in the eyes of someone with a heart, it is a big deal." ”

His wife's face was serious, and Rong Qi sat upright, and asked Qiulan to take the child out before asking, "What is the matter?" ”

Yanran said what Aunt Su said, and then said: "I look at this thing to lure the snake out of the hole, and I can still do it, but you must always be careful, so as not to fall back." ”

Rong Qi couldn't help sighing, the person who said bad things about himself in front of Lord Lin knew who it was. Yanran patted Rong Qi's shoulder: "That's why I asked that." Although we ourselves are frank and open, we can't bear the changeability of people's hearts. ”

"I know!" Rong Qi replied sullenly and said, "It's a pity that Master Tuesday, I don't think about doing business well, and I prefer to use such methods." ”

"I'm afraid that he thinks that this method is also a good business." Yanran said a witty word, Rong Qi smiled faintly, and could only think so. The Zhou family is really going into decay step by step, and the twilight is getting heavier and heavier.

"Mother, can this idea be successful?" When Zhou heard Mrs. Zhou's words, he frowned and asked, and Mrs. Zhou snorted in her nose: "Otherwise, why did you take the trouble to fish out that Meizhuang, don't you want to surprise the soldiers?" Let Meizhuang go and talk to the maids first, whether it is a threat or a lure, lead Na Rongsan to the Chu family, and then go and tell Lord Lin, Lord Lin will go again. At that time, the yellow mud fell on the crotch of his pants, and he had to admit it. If something like this happens to Rong San, the limelight will naturally be low. Don't worry, I bought those two mothers-in-law. And ......"

Mrs. Zhou wanted to speak and stopped, Zhou knew that his mother must have something that she couldn't tell herself, and her lips pursed slightly: "Mother, since you know that Meizhuang was fished out by me with great effort, you must always ......."

"Not just this time? Besides, that Aunt Zhu's maid is not by Lord Lin's side anymore, and she can't afford to be unlucky with her family. Zhou groaned, Mrs. Zhou knew that her daughter had been persuaded by herself, and held her hand: "Master Rong will be back soon, he is a shrewd man, if we see any clues at that time, our plan will not be realized." It's better to take advantage of his absence in Yangzhou. ”
