"Who?" Sima Shi raised his eyebrows.

Bai Lingyun chuckled lightly and said, "If I guess correctly, this person's surname is Cao Mingliang, the son of Cao Yan, the Marquis of Gaoling Pavilion, and the current Governor of the Gate." ”

"Him?" Sima Shi's eyelids jumped slightly, but he quickly regained his calm expression, and said lightly: "Auntie is wrong, he is just an inconsequential passerby, how can I have anything to do with him?" ”

"Really?" Bai Lingyun's smile was ambiguous, "Can you really tolerate a man who stole his own woman and is still alive in this world?" You must know that the bride has not touched it yourself, and someone else has taken the lead, this kind of humiliation, I'm afraid a man can't accept it, right? ”

Sima Shi's face became gloomy, his right hand clenched into a fist, and in the quiet darkness of the night, he could even hear the joints in his hands gurgling.

Although the matter of Cao Liang and Yang Huiyu is already well known in Luoyang City, I am afraid that this is the first time that someone has ridiculed him in front of Sima Shi.

But the woman in front of him was his father's concubine and his mother, so no matter how angry Sima Shi was, he wouldn't dare to make a mistake.

Sima Shi let go of his fist, his eyes drooped, and he said lightly: "In the middle of the night, I'm afraid my aunt didn't come to entertain the teacher, right?" ”

Bai Lingyun smiled lightly and said, "Do you think I have that leisure?" It's all my own family, and I won't hide it, so let's be honest with you, there are some problems in Yipinju's business, and I need your help. ”

Within the Sima family, the division of labor is also clear, Sima Shi is responsible for the training and management of the dead, and Bai Lingyun is responsible for the operation of Yipinju.

The money earned by Yipinju will not be directly handed over to Sima Shi, but all the funds will be handed over to Sima Yi, and then distributed by him.

Sima Shi glanced at Bai Lingyun, and said secretly, this woman has always been unprofitable and can't afford to be early, no wonder she will wait here, dare to ask him to do something, Sima Shi said in a flawed manner: "My father has made it clear that we are not allowed to meddle in the business of Yipinju, my aunt is probably looking for the wrong person, right?" ”

Businessmen are lowly industries, even if Yipinju is big and strong, it can't turn over, so Sima Yi does not allow Sima Shi and his brothers to touch business.

But the operation of the Sima family is absolutely inseparable from Yipinju, without Yipinju continuously providing a large amount of funds, the Sima family will not be able to support only 3,000 dead soldiers, not to mention that other places also spend money like water.

In order to ensure the normal operation of the Sima family's system, Sima Yi must not rely on the golden rooster of Yipinju to hatch eggs for him.

It is impossible for Sima Yi himself to run Yipin, and also for identity considerations, it is impossible for his wife and sister-in-law to participate, but if Yipinju wants to run well, it must have a person in charge who has a strong wrist and a flexible mind, so Mrs. Bai Lingyun became the speaker of Yipinju.

But even so, Bai Lingyun has always been hidden behind the scenes, and in the entire Luoyang City, there are almost few people who know that Yipinju is the Sima family's property.

Therefore, Sima Shi rejected Bai Lingyun, and he refused justifiably.

Bai Lingyun's jade teeth gritted lightly, if this matter could be solved by Sima Yi, why did she need to look at Sima Shi's face?

Don't look at Bai Lingyun's esteemed status in Sima Mansion now, relying on Sima Yi's favor, and even being able to suppress Sima Yi's wife Zhang Chunhua. But Bai Lingyun knew in her heart that this was just relying on the old man's face, if there was no Sima Yi, she wouldn't be a fart, and Brother Sima wanted to trample her to death, but it was just an ant to trample to death.

Sima Yi is already over the age of sixteen, and Bai Lingyun, who has no son and a half heir, does have her own hidden worries, she is favored by the old man, but she has inadvertently offended a lot of people, if one day the old man leaves the west, her fate is destined to be very miserable.

Thinking of danger in times of peace, Bai Lingyun doesn't want to have any conflicts with the future head of the Sima family, so the relationship between Bai Lingyun and Sima Shi has always been relatively delicate, like enemies but not enemies, like friends but not friends.

This time it was Cao Liang who had to deal with it, with Sima Yi's cautious character, he would definitely not agree to Bai Lingyun's death, so Bai Lingyun would find Sima Shi to find a way, but usually if the relationship between the two was about to leave, Bai Lingyun deliberately provoked each other with words, so that Sima Shi had the same hatred and indignation and jointly dealt with Cao Liang.

didn't expect Sima Shi to be on the road and not accept her moves at all, which made Bai Lingyun, who has always been cunning and wise, feel a little unplayable.

Although Sima Shi does not handle business, but the situation in the Luoyang Wushisan market is changing, he can't know, although he himself is not satisfied with Wushisan, but many of his friends are like-minded people, and they have long boasted in front of Sima Shi how good Wushisan is, and Sima Shi naturally indirectly knew about Wushisan.

The importance of Wushisan to the Sima family is self-evident, and the low-cost and high-profit monopoly business position has brought a steady stream of funds to the Sima family, supporting the development of the intertwined Sima family.

However, if he is not in his position and does not seek his own politics, Sima Shi does not dare to easily touch his father's bottom line, so the matter of Yipinju is really not something he can manage.

Bai Lingyun sighed faintly and said: "Since Ziyuan refuses to help, then I haven't said this, hey, in fact, the affairs of your Sima family, why do I need to worry about it as a lowly person?" The Sima family is prosperous, and the glorious lintel is also your sons and grandsons, the Sima family is ruined and decayed, so naturally there is no need for me to clean up the mess. Since you are old and cautious, you only think about calming things down, and small things don't concern you just about the wind and the moon, I'm a woman, and I'm doing so much leisure, just let it be. ”

With that, she lifted the lotus step lightly and wanted to leave.

Sima Shi frowned and said, "Wait!" What does my aunt mean that Yipinju has reached the point where it is difficult? ”

Bai Lingyun looked extremely resentful, and sighed: "It's not just difficult, in fact, Yipinju has reached the time of survival, the original profits of Wushisan accounted for half of all the profits of Yipinju, and now it has been suppressed, and Wushisan is all unsalable, if this situation cannot be reversed within the year, I am afraid that Yipinju can only be closed." ”
