Chapter 191 The capital

What's more, he also knew that Gu Gongzi had a little thought about Qiao Jinwen.

So as soon as he came this time, he bore the brunt of Qiao Lixi's attack, but he didn't want to, Qiao Lixi called Qiao Xingbang back.

Qiao Xingbang.

This is the biggest problem, and it is also the problem that he has always avoided.

He is the old patriarch, and he should be the high-ranking existence of the Qiao family, but because of the "strength" of the Qiao family, he has to condescend to "curry" the Qiao family, which is what he cannot tolerate the most.

It would be good if the Qiao family's things could be confiscated and put in the clan.

Qiao's actions were very fast, and they were also very careful, and it took two months to make the first batch of Shu brocade, and in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they embroidered ten square embroidered handkerchiefs, all of which were embroidered with Shu embroidery, although some were only embroidered in the corner of the embroidered handkerchief, but they still used double-sided embroidery luxuriously.

In the face of the caution of the Qiao family's rooms, Qiao Yixi didn't think so, but she still behaved obediently.

"This batch of goods is very important, Gu Gongzi is now in the capital, I want the fourth child to follow him, in case we need to find someone to deal with, we will not fail to arrest it. Boss, are you going to go over in person, or do you want Qiaoqiao to come over? ”

Old Madam Qiao was very smart this time, and she didn't stop the people in the long house from the beginning, after all, it was the first time to deal with people from the Internal Affairs Office, and the head of the Qiao family should come forward to pay attention to it.

Qiao Xingbang said: "Mother, I'm not worried about Jing Shu's side, just let Qiao Qiao go over, Qiao Qiao is a person from the long house and my successor, and it is not unruly for her to come forward, in short, let her practice." ”

Practice?

Take the future of the Qiao family to practice?

The people in a few rooms are dissatisfied, but they are not easy to attack.

So, the matter was settled.

This time, it was Qiao Yixi and Qiao Siye who delivered to the capital.

Before leaving, Qiao Lixi sent letters to Zhong Chenglin and Jin Baijin.

Zhong Chenglin is also preparing to go to the capital, because Gu Jinzhen is coming back, and the war in southern Xinjiang that was about to break out before has been inexplicably lifted, Gu Jinzhen is going to come back to resume his life and report the situation there to the emperor.

Coincidentally, Jin Baijin actually wanted to go to the capital, but he left a few days later than Qiao Lixi, because "Meal World" opened a branch in the capital, and the business was very good.

This time out of Shuzhou, naturally by water, by water, by water, you have to go to Chaotianmen.

No matter how many people in the Qiao family look down on the Gu family, they still choose the waterway, the reason is very simple - the Qiao family and the Gu family are in-laws, the Gu family is embarrassed to charge freight, not to mention, but also to ensure the safety of the goods, maybe, it is possible to get a cargo ship to transport it.

It's a pity that the Qiao family thinks too highly of themselves.

Over the years, the squeezing that the Gu family is accustomed to makes them feel good about themselves, as if they should be touted by the Gu family, even if the Gu family has the name of "the first tyrant in western Sichuan", they have to be small in front of them.

It's just that Fourth Master Qiao still underestimated the Gu family.

Although he had already asked people to greet the Gu family in advance, when Qiao Siye stood in front of Gu Shiyang with people and goods, the other party's momentum overwhelmed him.

A reckless man is a reckless man!

A fool who only knows how to use his fists, not his brains.

Fourth Master Qiao despised Gu Shiyang, so when he spoke, he unconsciously brought a contemptuous tone, "So, this time I will trouble Brother Gu." ”

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome, our Gu family is already in the water business, this time to help Qiao Qiao transport goods, I don't don't collect a penny, how can it be troublesome?"

Qiao Siye's face changed suddenly, but it was not easy to attack.

In terms of business, it should have been settled clearly, and the Gu family wanted to accept his silver, which was justified, and it was reasonable to say anywhere, but he didn't want to give this money, although he had already included the freight in the cost, but if he really wanted to take it out, it still hurt.

Originally, I thought that with the relationship between the Qiao family and the Gu family, the Gu family had no face to ask for this silver, but I didn't expect it......

So, a reckless man is a reckless man!

Qiao Siye was so angry that he grinded his teeth, but he couldn't do that kind of cheeky thing.

The freight is still charged, the manpower fee is still charged, and the Gu family did not deliberately send a cargo ship as Qiao Siye expected, but together with other freight merchants, there is no special treatment, of course, if you give silver, the treatment will be different.

Qiao Siye went to the capital this time, not only brought Qiao Lixi, but also Qiao Jinwen and Qiao Yi, presumably, it also opened the eyes of the two children.

Qiao Jinwen has always been jealous of Qiao Lixi, with such a prominent grandfather's family, it is no problem to walk sideways in Jincheng, but Qiao Lixi is stupid.

With such a good resource, it has been squeezed for so many years in vain.

Originally, I thought that the Gu family liked Qiao Lixi so much, but now that I look at it, it is nothing more than that, even the shipping and protection fees have to be charged, and Qiao Lixi is still called "uncle".

Hehe, this is the so-called uncle.

The contempt in Qiao Jinwen's eyes was too obvious, naked, naked, and naked on Qiao Lixi's body, not hiding it at all.

Qiao Yixi tilted her head and asked, "Third sister, but is there something?" ”

Qiao Jinwen shook her head and said in a sly manner: "No, the third sister just thinks that it is not causing trouble to your grandfather's family." ”

"Why did the third sister say that?"

Qiao Jinwen explained: "The third sister just thinks it's strange, it's obviously your grandfather's family, and she asked them for help, and she actually collected money." So I wondered, is it that your grandfather's family doesn't like our Qiao family and thinks that we are causing trouble for them. ”

Qiao Jinwen was puzzled, her eyes full of confusion.

Qiao Yixi held her cheek with one hand, and leaned towards Qiao Jinwen across the round table, "Then according to the meaning of the third sister, what should I do?" ”

"Qiaoqiao, don't get me wrong," Qiao Jinwen explained again, "The third sister just said casually, if I ask my uncle for help, my uncle will definitely not say a word, not only will he help me solve the problem wholeheartedly, but he will not charge the running fee or anything, the family, it hurts my feelings to talk about money, the third sister is just sorry for you, obviously the Gu family has this ability, why should it be so clear." ”

"Isn't it a brother's reckoning?"

"That's right, but it's good, that's your uncle, can't you do you a favor, our two families are in-laws."

Qiao Lixi smiled slightly, "First of all, this is my uncle, it has nothing to do with you, I am doing business with my uncle, not asking them for help." My uncle helped, and he also helped us with the long house, and it had nothing to do with the Qiao family. This is the Qiao family's business, and the expenses are all on the books, with this budget, why not spend? Could it be that we keep it for ourselves, and divide it up when the time comes? Also, the third sister's uncle doesn't charge a penny for helping the third sister, that is, the third sister's uncle is willing to help, but, I'm very strange, over the years, the third sister's uncle doesn't seem to have helped our Qiao family do anything, right? On the contrary, our Qiao family helped the Xue family a lot, and it was true that they confiscated a penny. ”

"Jojo, I'm ......"

"Third sister," Qiao Yixi interrupted Qiao Jinwen's words gently, "My grandfather's family is capable, it's my grandfather's business, and my grandfather's family doesn't owe me anything, why should they help our Qiao family for no reason?" The third sister also knows that this imperial business is to be done for a year, is it possible, every time I deliver goods to the capital, I have to send it to my grandfather's family for nothing? That's not how a free lunch is eaten, is it? ”

"Qiaoqiao, the third sister is just defending you and helping you say a few words, it doesn't matter if you don't appreciate it, there's no need to say it so ugly!" Qiao Jinwen was annoyed and angry, got up with a "bang", and drove the tea cup on the round table.

Without even a pause, he walked out of Qiao Lixi's cabin and returned to his cabin.

Although there were other merchants and passengers on this cargo ship, Gu Shiyang intimately arranged the best room for Qiao Yixi and the others, and the price was also 20% cheaper, which was a very preferential "relative price".

Because of the previous suspicions, plus Qiao Siye and others were a little seasick, until they arrived in the capital, the group got together again.

After getting off the boat, there was already a carriage waiting, and the group got into the carriage, followed by a loaded carriage, and arrived at the courtyard where they were temporarily rented.

This is a temporary lease, and you have to go to the capital one step in advance and make proper arrangements.

Because he was afraid of delaying the trip on the road, Qiao Siye took Qiao Lixi and others to set off in advance, because the goods were very important, and Qiao Siye had other arrangements, the guest house was not safe and inconvenient, so he rented a yard.

In order to make the first delivery smoothly, Qiao's family also made a lot of money, and the location of the rented yard is very good, although it is not in the downtown area, but it is also on the main road, not far from the location of the prominent nobles in the capital, and the security is very good, but the price is a little more expensive.

However, these are not in the scope of Qiao Siye's consideration.

After settling down, everyone finally had a comfortable dinner.

The next day, Qiao Siye went out alone.

Qiao Yi and Qiao Jinwen were new to the city, and they were also curious, and after getting the approval of Qiao Siye, the two went out with the maid and the little maid.

Qiao Yixi, who was selectively forgotten, glanced at Wei Nanshui, "You don't go out for a walk?" ”

"Miss!" Wei Nanshui was shocked.

Qiao Yixi squinted, "Everyone has their own secrets, if you don't say it, you naturally have your scruples, just do what you want, it's just ...... Don't bother me. ”

Wei Nanshui knelt down with a "plop", "Miss, don't worry, I won't cause trouble, and I won't contact the people over there, I just want to ...... Go see her. ”

Qiao Yixi nodded and didn't ask more.

Everyone has their own responsibilities and obligations, and she doesn't restrain the people below her too much, provided that they don't cause her trouble.

Qiao Lixi thinks that she has always been lucky, and the people around her are very worry-free, even if she betrayed her forsythia, she is also assertive.

Of course she has an opinion, otherwise she wouldn't have betrayed her!

The reason why she checked and guarded Nanshui was originally because of habit.

When I first checked Uncle Quan's family, I also checked Wei Nanshui by the way, because these are all martial arts skills, so Mama Shen is extra cautious. It is also thanks to the Gu family that they have the ability, and she really found out Wei Nanshui's abnormality after a check.

Wei Nanshui's previous statement was not wrong, the person who died was indeed his father, but he was just an adoptive father, Wei Nanshui didn't know who his real father was, to be exact, he was not interested in knowing, he came to the capital just to worship his mother.
