This was the first night after the fire in the west of Jingzhou, and the Jingzhou prefect was destined to not sleep well. issued notices and wrote folds, and from time to time I was worried that Nangong Jin would escape, until I received the report documents handled by the three halls of Jingzhou of the Nangong clan, and I was a little relieved, and finally this second son still knows some rules. Although the impression of Luo Yunshi last time was not very good, at least after becoming the second son of Nangong this time, the attitude of admitting guilt is still good.

The excitement of the Iron Sword Hall's revenge began to decrease from Qin Mancang. After all, he was old, although he was still excited, after returning from Fushun, he couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep directly. Only Qin Yongsen and Qin Ye were left in the study.

After Qin Yongsen finished telling the day, Qin Ye finally couldn't help it.

"Dad, how can this be? Before, the eldest young master gave money, why didn't the second young master not only give a penny this time, but also took away all our property! In the west of the city, not only do we contribute to the final reconstruction, but we also need to pay for it! Dad, he's too good! Qin Ye was indignant.

Seeing that Qin Yongsen was silent, he said with a sad face: "Dad, we have lost a lot of brothers. Seeing them today, I, I ....... ”

"That's why I told you not to go. How about the brothers? With such a result, Qin Yongsen was also heartbroken.

Qin Ye shook his head, "Those who are seriously injured, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold a few." The child always thinks that it is not worth it. ”

Qin Yongsen persuaded: "It's good that the old man is happy." After so many years, he hasn't been as happy as he is today, and besides, this hatred is indeed not shared. After a pause, "The second young master can be regarded as a trustworthy person. Now, Santang is a family, and it is completely different from before. The second young master also said, manage well and live a good life. In the past few days, we will first take stock of the accounts, and Binh Duong will send the account room, and it will be easy to hand over when the time comes. ”

"Dad, you, you're really good?!" Qin Ye was anxious.

Since Qin Ye arrived in Jingzhou at the age of ten, he has always thought that he would take over the Qin family's industry in the future, never thought that one day the Qin family would have nothing left, or did the old man never think about giving it to himself? After so many years of dedication, in exchange for looking at Nangong Jin's face in the future. In Qin Ye's heart, there is sadness and hatred.

Qin Yongsen looked at Qin Ye and was slightly dissatisfied with his attitude: "Dad thinks what the second young master said should be okay." The old man also thinks that if we do a good job, we can not only revive the dart business, but maybe we can also really get rich. ”

"Daddy! It's not our Qin clan on the rich side, it's the Nangong clan! Qin Ye was sad and angry, perhaps feeling that his attitude was too radical, so he slowly persuaded him: "Everything is not our Qin family's, Dad." No matter if we do it well or not, our Qin family has nothing, Dad. "Qin Ye is still trying to make Qin Yongsen oppose the handover of the property, at least some privately, not all of it.

Qin Yongsen felt that what Qin Ye said was not entirely wrong, rubbed his temples, and said tiredly: "It's late, I've been busy these days." You should go to bed early, too. ”

Qin Ye stood up and didn't say anything. He understood that as long as the old man was there, he would never have a place to speak.

**********

Li Qiang and Lin Shi are still living in Qifengzhuang, but this should be the last night. Before coming back in the evening, the two of them went to Yang Wentian's house and took a general look. The servants and servants were all there, and when they heard what had happened, none of them dared to speak out. Before leaving, Li Qiang took down the plaque of Leshui Hall hanging at the door.

The two went back to Qifengzhuang, and after telling everyone the news, more than ten people who followed Li Qiang were excited, knowing that Nangong was rich, but they didn't expect Nangong Jin to be so generous, not only gave a place to live, but also directly had an industry. Even after hearing that Lin Shihui was the deputy hall master, there was no resistance. After all, I have lived in Qifengzhuang for so long, and all the daily life is arranged by Lin Shi, and everyone has a good impression of this polite host's family, and everyone stepped forward to salute and say hello, which made Lin Shi embarrassed.

After everyone dispersed happily, Lin Shi finally found an opportunity to discuss with Li Qiang, "Hall Master, there are a few things that need to be discussed with the Hall Master. ”

"What's the matter?" Li Qiang was also a little excited and asked with a smile.

"The first thing, in the past few days, the hall master needs to go through various procedures with the next one, and the hall master has explained that everything must meet the requirements of the imperial court and the laws of the Ming Dynasty."

"Okay, Mr. Lin arranged, I'll listen to you."

"Second, I'll transfer two accounts from Qifengzhuang tomorrow and take a look at all the accounts. After that, Binh Duong will also send an account office over, so that we can pay the account. ”

Li Qiang nodded, "I don't understand these things, Mr. Lin looks at it." ”

Lin Shi smiled, "Hall Master, what I mean below is that after the accounts are settled, the hall master will also go through it, and if you don't understand it, you will explain it later." Listen to the meaning of the head hall master, and then all our churches in Jingzhou must consider operating. I've been thinking just now that the Iron Knife Hall was originally from a dart game, and they can still dart, but in a new way; Qifengtang has a lot of business, mainly because it has been inherited for a hundred years and has a rich accumulation; The Relic Sword Hall was newly built, so we had to be different from the other halls. ”

Li Qiang thought about it, but didn't particularly understand what Lin Shi meant, "How is it different?" ”

Lin Shi continued: "To be honest, there shouldn't be too many assets in Leshuitang, and Yang Wentian has taken everything he can take. Even if we have a house and an industry in our hands, it is still difficult to make some characteristics, because no matter what we do, we need capital, and we lack cash. ”

"Money? Nangong Jin...... Well, the head hall master didn't mean that he didn't have any money either. ”

"Therefore, in addition to going through various procedures in the past few days, we may also have to sell some properties for cash." Lin Shi suggested.

Li Qiang frowned and asked, "Can he agree?" ”

"If you want the head hall master to agree, you can't just tell him to sell the property, we have to have the whole plan, that's what I said before, find a special feature for us to start."

Li Qiang looked at Lin Shi and waited for him to continue.

Lin Shi was a little embarrassed by her, and bowed his head and said, "Hall Master, we are currently short of money and people. If you lack money, you may be able to sell your industry, but if you lack people, it is not easy to solve it for a while. Thinking about it, the hall master and everyone are strong in martial arts, if we open a martial arts hall, we can not only make money, but also make the hall master's disciples all over the world, I don't know what the hall idea is? ”

Li Qiang shook her head directly, "No, the master has rules ......." Before he finished speaking, he stopped, his expression bitter.

Lin Shi kept his head down, didn't see Li Qiang's expression, and heard that she disagreed, so he had to say, "If the hall master doesn't agree, then let me think about it again." ”

"Well, there's nothing to disagree with. I can only do swordsmanship, and if I want to talk about anything else, the master of the hall is the master. ”

Lin Shi felt that her tone was a little bitter, and looked up at her and said: "Actually, the hall master doesn't need to pass on advanced kung fu, in my second thought, we can not only open a traditional martial arts hall, but if possible, we can also teach women how to defend themselves." There are also many women doing business in Jingzhou, and many businessmen and young ladies will also show their heads, which is the best if they can defend themselves and strengthen their bodies. ”

Li Qiang understood what Lin Shi meant, and thought for a long time, "In this regard, I will discuss it with a few others tomorrow, the key is not whether to pass on martial arts, but how to change it, after all, the current one is not very suitable for women, nor is it suitable for physical fitness." ”

Lin Shi smiled and nodded: "Okay." The last piece, the house of Leshuitang, I think it's best to change it ....... ”

"Changes? Is it necessary? It also costs money to change. "Li Qiang now clearly knows that she has no money in her hand, and remembers the old saying that 'it is better to save than to earn'.

Lin Shi still persuaded: "We are going to live for a long time in the future, and in my opinion, we still have to rebuild, which is more suitable for the Sword Hall." However, it is now possible to plan for minor changes. When you have the money, you can make a big change. At that time, with the money we earn in the hall, the head of the hall will not disagree. ”
