Chapter Ninety-Seven: Quick Knife
As Wei Fa strode in, some of the shopkeepers who had been chatting together got up one after another, clasping their fists to greet each other.
"Here comes the Nine Shopkeepers......"
"Don't be in a hurry, the young lady hasn't arrived yet......"
"The nine shopkeepers are full of spring breeze, and there will be happy events......"
Wei Fa was stunned for a moment, looking at the emptiness of the main seat opposite, and his heart flashed with doubts, and then he smiled and said: "I thought my sister-in-law was already here, but since I haven't come yet, I'm not late, ah... Haha......"
"It's not counted, even if it's late, it's a trivial matter for the nine shopkeepers......"
"Yes, yes, now the business of the nine shopkeepers is unique in the Wei family, and no one will criticize and make it difficult......"
"Yes, yes, who hasn't been in a hurry, delay for a while, it doesn't matter......"
Everyone laughed and complimented again, and chatted very lively.
In the conference hall, with the entry of Wei Fa, several circles were quickly formed.
Wei Lou was the leader, and around him, the largest number of people, accounting for almost a third of the number, they also talked softly with each other.
Wei Kai was the leader, all of them were in the prime of life, sitting in Wei Kai's row, silent, but from time to time he turned his head to look at the position where Master Wei sat in the past and Li Xiluan was now sitting.
The third was Wei Fa, who was surrounded by the least but most active people, and most of the voices in the hall were made by them, and they did not shy away from discussing topics.
There are also two circles that are self-contained, one is neutral, and they are more inclined to Li Xiluan, most of whom hate infighting and are good at themselves. The other is to fully support Li Xiluan, who is the descendant of Master Wei, and is extremely loyal to the Wei family, and this part of the people accounts for nearly one-fifth.
Walking to the door, listening to the boiling sound inside, Wei Qiao and Li Xiluan glanced at each other, and then turned their heads to look at Yu'er, who had a pretty face and nodded solemnly.
Seeing that Li Xiluan was still a little nervous, Wei Qiao reached out and shook her jade hand, and laughed softly: "Everything is ready, if you can't do it, let me come." ”
Li Xiluan's delicate body trembled, her pretty face flushed sharply, and her crimson was as beautiful as jade. Immediately pulled out in a hurry, looked at the fish with his head down behind him with a little weakness, glared at Wei Qiao with a charming face, and then nodded at Wei Qiao and smiled, took a deep breath, turned around and stepped in.
The moment Li Xiluan walked in, the entire conference hall instantly fell silent.
Everyone looked at the beautiful woman who walked in with bated breath, and it was not until this time that everyone suddenly remembered that it was she who would turn the tide in the Wei Family Mansion and maintain the Wei family, which was in internal and external distress until now.
Before everyone came back to their senses, their eyes were fixed again.
-- The Wei family has never been involved in business, studied behind closed doors, and the young master also walked out.
Everyone frowned and stared, they had already had a premonition that today was not ordinary, and as Wei Qiao walked in, their hearts shook again.
Wei Lou raised his old face and looked at Li Xiluan who was walking towards the middle seat, and then looked at Wei Qiao who walked in, and his sparse brows furrowed.
Wei Kai sat there, seeing that Wei Qiao had already sat down beside Li Xiluan, his eyes were also puzzled and thoughtful.
Wei Fa was still standing in the middle of the hall, surrounded by a group of people, and although he was silent, the place where they stood was still extremely abrupt.
Li Xiluan's condescending cold gaze was full of authority and looked at him, cold and awe-inspiring.
Swept away by the eyes full of warnings, Wei Fa's face flashed ugly, and he smiled at the surrounding people and said, "Scattered, my sister-in-law has come." ”
Everyone immediately laughed, hugged their fists and sat back quickly.
Wei Fa lowered his head and swallowed, and also turned to his place.
Wei Qiao sat next to Li Xiluan and looked at the people below with a light smile.
Some are indifferent, some are eager, some are expressionless, and some are full of flattery.
Looking at a few of the younger and more eager and somewhat excessive gazes, Wei Qiao smiled and thought, 'This is normal.' ’
Wei Qiao looked at the people below, and the people below were also looking at him.
is not as beautiful as jade, but it can also be said to be handsome and chic, not suave but also a talent.
Li Xiluan's eyes swept over the people with different expressions below, and then at Wei Qiao, who was indifferent, a slight smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Wei Lou coldly, and suddenly said: "Third uncle, Chongzhou used to be in charge of you, but now something has happened, can you tell everyone about the situation over there now?" ”
Wei Lou, who was leaning on the chair, was stunned, looked up at Li Xiluan, and his old eyes flashed sharply.
Not only him, but also the hearts of the people below were shaken. Li Xiluan usually talks respectfully with Wei Sanye, and he still has the posture of a junior, but today's sentence, not only unceremoniously, but also implicitly regards himself as the head of the Wei family, and his words are full of command!
Everyone frowned, this is not a good sign.
Wei Lou's eyes flashed, and he took out the cigarette pouch, and said lightly while holding the tobacco leaves: "The Wei family's cloth is all from the Wei family's dyeing workshop. ”
The Wei family's dyeing workshop is in the hands of Li Xiluan, and he is accusing Li Xiluan of fighting back.
Li Xiluan's face was cold, and she snorted coldly: "I'm not talking about the cloth, I'm talking about the specific situation and what happened." ”
Wei Lou pressed the thumb of the tobacco leaf suddenly, and his brows couldn't help frowning.
Everyone quieted down, and at this moment everyone understood that Li Xiluan was going to show his sword today.
"Wei Qiang, you come." Wei Lou put the cigarette holder to his mouth and said lightly.
Wei Qiang looked happy, stood up with excitement on his face, opened his mouth and said, "......"
"Wait!" Li Xiluan did not hesitate to call back the words that Wei Qiang had already sent to his throat, and said coldly: "Third uncle, who let Wei Qiang meddle in Chongzhou's affairs?" ”
The nominal supervisor on Chongzhou's side is indeed Weilou, but in fact, several shopkeepers on Chongzhou's side are Li Xiluan's people. is related to the life of the Wei family's business, and she naturally will not pretend to be someone else's hand.
Wei Lou's brows tightened, the smoke rose, and his slightly squinted eyes looked at Li Xiluan seriously for the first time through the thick smoke.
In the past three years, Li Xiluan has shown such a strong and aggressive attitude for the first time.
Wei Qiang's face turned red, his fists were clenched, and his eyes stared at Li Xiluan coldly, but when he saw her oppressive and condescending eyes, he gritted his teeth and lowered his head.
Wei Qiao looked at Li Xiluan, who had a cold face and a dignified look in her eyes, thinking that she begged for mercy in her arms last night, and her delicate body was soft and boneless.
After a long time, Wei Lou put down the cigarette pouch, pressed his fingers on the tobacco leaves, and said indifferently, "I'll let you go, young man, exercise." ”
Li Xiluan's eyes were dark, and he snorted coldly, "Yes, I heard that the shop where Wei Qiang was in charge of things happened to stay." And the person who was responsible for cooperating with the government's cloth inspection was also running errands under Wei Qiang at that time. ”
Wei Lou was stunned, he didn't expect Li Xiluan to investigate in such detail.
And Wei Qiang's right hand suddenly trembled, and he looked at Wei Lou with a worried face.
Wei Lou frowned, smoking a cigarette, and looked at Li Xiluan who was sitting on it again. It's a pity that Li Xiluan is no longer the Li Xiluan of two years ago, he can't see anything on her cold face, and he doesn't know how much he has mastered.
In the conference hall, everyone's eyes turned to Wei Lou, who was sitting in front, and no one expected that Wei Sanye, who was important to the Wei family, was forced to have nothing to say by Li Xiluan, and hesitated.
Wei Kai's face was excited, and Li Xiluan finally showed her decisive domineering!
But Wei Fa's face became solemn, and it would take two days for Chongzhou's affairs to get to Jinling, unless, unless, unless- carrier pigeon!
Li Xiluan's eyes looked at Wei Fa in the smoke with cold eyes, and said lightly, "Third uncle, I know that Wei Qiang is your only grandson, you hand over all the business of the Wei family and live for a long time." ”
Boom boom everyone is brain exploded, looking at Li Xiluan with a cold and resolute face on his face in disbelief, and couldn't help but guess if she was crazy, just with some unwarranted things, forced Wei Sanye, who controlled nearly a quarter of the Wei family's business, to hand over all the property? !
But immediately, everyone's eyes turned to Wei Lou again, remembering that the passive situation he was in at the beginning could not be reversed, and suddenly his heart beat violently.
Wei Lou trembled his right hand as soon as Li Xiluan's voice fell, and his eyes suddenly burst into horror. The rickety body suddenly sat up straight, and looked at Li Xiluan with a gloomy face.
The council chamber suddenly suffocated, but the weather in September was so cold that everyone couldn't help but shiver.
"Yu'er, press Wei Qiang down and send him directly to the official." In the cold silence, Wei Qiao, who was sitting next to Li Xiluan, was like an outsider, and suddenly said indifferently.
Everyone was stunned, and their eyes turned to Wei Qiao, who had always existed like a transparent person, in extreme surprise, and his eyes were indescribably strange.
Yu'er looked up at Li Xiluan, Li Xiluan's crisp chest rose and fell slightly, and nodded with a cold face.
The fish immediately waved their hands, and five or six families poured out from both sides of the door.
"You, you dare, I am the young master of the Wei family, who dares to take me!" Wei Qiang looked at the family who came over with a cold face, and leaned towards Wei Lou while shouting with a stiff neck.
Wei Lou looked up at Li Xiluan, and said with a gloomy face, "Young lady, do you really want to send Wei Qiang to the official?" ”
As soon as his words fell, everyone's eyes turned to Li Xiluan. In this example, the Wei family has never been opened, even when Master Wei was alive, at most, he would beat the board and then drive out of the Wei family, and he had never sent it to the government!
Li Xiluan's face was cold, and she told everyone with a cold face: Wei Qiao's words are what I mean.
Wei Qiao didn't have the habit of dragging mud and water, he stood up directly, looked at Wei Lou condescendingly and said, "Third uncle, I won't say anything else, the benefits you have received from the Wei family over the years are too much, as long as you hand over all the business in your hand, I will not pursue the rest." ”
Wei Lou's old face twitched, he laughed angrily, stood up tremblingly in his chair, turned his head and looked at Wei Qiao with a sneer and disdain, that look is to tell Wei Qiao: You are a stinky kid, it is too ridiculous to say this.
"Mrs. Qiyu, there are a few officials outside who said that they came to listen to the young master's dispatch on the orders of Lord Yin, and they are now waiting outside the door."
Suddenly, a family member stood at the door, bowed down and said loudly.
