Chapter 396: Sixty-five thousand taels
Qin Baichuan took the initiative to admit defeat, and Qu Xi had a winning look on his face: "Baichuan, if you tell me in the Qianjin Gambling House to do something that a husband should do, I feel that you have something to say." No matter what Cheng Xingyun's origin is, his ultimate goal is to take away the Hundred Flowers Workshop, but after you left, he released me, which is already very suspicious in itself. ”
"You know how powerful my mouth is, I convinced him." Qin Baichuan Road.
"I believe you to fool those ignorant women, but you may not be able to move Cheng Xingyun and other characters, besides, he took a lot of trouble to kidnap me, if he didn't get enough benefits, how could he let me go?" Qu Xicai didn't believe his nonsense, and continued: "Cheng Xingyun doesn't mention it, your behavior these days is also extremely abnormal. After returning from the Qianjin Gambling House, you ordered the Baihua Workshop to start work on the condition of three times your salary in the first lunar month, like a lazy person like you, when was you so diligent? ”
"Also, I've been here a few times, and I heard from the family of the Hundred Flowers Workshop that you invited three more sect leaders, using the Bliss Sect as a base, and began to train some teenagers, and the requirements are extremely harsh and strict, and what do you want is a strong ......force that 'comes when called, can fight, and will win the battle'" Qu Xi looked worried: "You are a businessman, who are you going to fight again?" I have to think about it a lot, that Cheng Xingyun may be very big, and even make you feel a sense of crisis, so you have to use this team to compete, right? ”
"Master Qu Zhuang, I think you go to exercise your eloquence, and then you can go to Wangjiang Tower to tell stories and tell stories." Qin Baichuan was secretly frightened, but his face made a look of disdain: "I'm surprised, where did you get so many ideas?" ”
"If I'm wrong, you give me a reason." Qu Xi was unmoved.
"Reason? Isn't it easy to ask for a reason? Qin Baichuan secretly groaned and said: "That Cheng Xingyun does have a lot of thoughts about the Hundred Flowers Workshop, he didn't listen to many words after I found it, and finally I told a big lie to scare him, and he naturally wanted to let you go obediently." ”
"Big lie?" Qin Baichuan looked serious, Qu Xi frowned and said, "Cheng Xingyun is quite scheming, how can there be no omissions even if he is a lie?" ”
"He's scheming, and I'm not weak." Qin Baichuan Zhengse said: "You may not know very well, the last time you saw Xu Xiu opened a small shop by the side of Jiangling, looking for Qin Ji, when the emperor Lu Shigao inadvertently passed by, because we met when we were in Anyang, he wrote me a few words and hung it in Xun Qin Ji." ”
"Don't be complacent, I know." Qu Xi said with a cold face.
"Isn't that what it takes? I told Cheng Xingyun that you are my lady, and there is still the shadow of Lord Lu behind me, so let them not deceive people too much. Qin Baichuan also knew that these words would scare Qu Xi, and reached out to find a gold medal from his body: "What's more, after the last Chu family's birthday banquet, in order to scare people in the future, I asked Old Man Chu to give me a sign." ”
Qu Xi took the gold medal handed over by Qin Baichuan in his hand suspiciously, only to feel that it was very heavy, and it was all made of real gold. On the front of the sign is carved a golden dragon with teeth and claws, four small characters below the golden dragon "Chief Guoshi", and on the back are eight big characters: "All take five dragons, such as I am in person".
"Baichuan, you're in trouble." After seeing the gold medal clearly, Qu Xi's heart almost turned over, but she has always been the indifferent character who doesn't care about anything, although she is anxious in her heart, but there is no expression on her face: "If you create such a thing, you are guilty of defrauding the king." At that time, once it leaks out, not only you, but even Old Man Chu will be connected to the Nine Clans. ”
"When it's true and fake, it's true and it's fake, and it's true when it's true, I just thought it was fun and created a side, and when I took it out and threw it in front of Cheng Xingyun, he couldn't make up his mind, but he didn't dare to bet with me." Qin Baichuan smiled lightly: "Even if he returns to Lin'an in the future, he will personally go to confirm with the emperor, and when he comes back to me, I flatly deny it, what can he do with me?" ”
"You're playing with fire." Qu Xi scolded in a low voice.
"Wealth is in danger, aren't you also thrilling every step when you deal with Xiao and Cheng? Whatever you say, the result is always good. Qin Baichuan stretched out his hand and prepared to take back the gold medal.
"Put it down!" Qu Xi took the lead and grabbed the gold medal directly in his hand: "This gold medal, give it to me." ”
"For you?" Qin Baichuan was a little silent.
"What's not to do?" Qu Xi gritted his teeth and said, "Qin Baichuan, don't forget, you never gave me any decent dowry when you first got married, this gold medal is exquisitely made, it seems to be a rare boutique of the Chu family, even if you compensate me." ”
"Qu Xi, what are you kidding?" Qin Baichuan almost jumped up, this gold medal is a hot potato, if he really sees the emperor in the future, he will return it directly, if it is taken by Qu Xi, if it is exposed, it may even bring her ruin.
"Master Qin, do you think my big owner of Splendid Mountain Villa will joke with you?" Qu Xi changed his name.
"Qu Xi, you ......" Qin Baichuan was speechless, from Qu Xi's eyebrows, he could read her true intentions, Qin Baichuan would rather take the risk of committing the crime of bullying the monarch to save her, so how could she Qu Xi stay out of the matter? Although the gold medal will inevitably be connected to the nine clans no matter who holds it, but once the government investigates it, she will say that the gold medal is made by herself, and Qin Baichuan is just acting on orders, maybe she can give him a glimmer of life. Therefore, Qu Xi made up his mind that he would not return the gold medal to Qin Baichuan no matter what.
"This matter is so decided, if you dare to disobey the will of the big owner, I will sue you to the government, saying that you have committed the following crimes." Qu Xi ignored Qin Baichuan's stupid attitude, stuffed the gold medal into his arms, and said: "Don't look at me like that, this gold medal is very important, I will keep it properly." I will never take it out unless I have to. ”
Qin Baichuan was speechless, and wanted to snatch it back, but he didn't dare to do it after all. I only heard Qu Xi say again: "Even though your remarks seem reasonable, I am still full of doubts...... Forget it, if I ask any more, you will tell me that after lying to Cheng Xingyun, you are afraid that he will see the flaws and come to trouble again, so you will recruit troops when you come back, right? ”
"Kill me with a sword." Qin Baichuan sighed weakly.
"The Hundred Flowers Workshop has not gained a stable foothold, how could I kill you, a hero?" Qu Xi glanced at Qin Baichuan and said, "Let's not mention Cheng Xingyun's matter, I came to you this time, and there are three other things." ”
"You say." Qin Baichuan didn't want to speak anymore.
"I asked Sun Dahai a few times ago, Chen Heming, I know your plan...... Well, if it continues to operate like this, the Hundred Flowers Workshop will usher in a peak, do you remember the last time I was sick, you gave me the 'heart medicine'? ”
"Yes." Qin Baichuan scratched his head, last time Qu Xi was provoked by the fourth master Qu and fainted directly, he asked people to go to the Guanyin Temple to get a sign.
"The spring flowers are splendid, and all things are moving forward with treasures; Jumping over the third-level waves of Yumen, just like a thunderclap on the ground. Qu Xi read out the signature softly, and said with some convincing: "This signing is quite accurate, and when the spring flowers bloom, the Splendid Villa and the Hundred Flowers Workshop will stabilize the situation." I want to tell you that after the chrysanthemums are gone, I plan to go to Lin'an according to the actual development situation. ”
"To Lin'an?" Qin Baichuan was a little surprised: "After the flowers of Splendid Villa, the Hundred Flowers Workshop can completely produce and sell by itself, so why go to Lin'an to go to great lengths?" ”
"It's because the flowers in Fairview Villa may be self-produced and sold, so I think the Hundred Flowers Workshop will be the main direction for us to move forward in the future. From now until the end of the autumn, it is time for us to learn rouge making and accumulate sales experience, and the purpose of going to Lin'an is also very simple. A sharp flash flashed in Qu Xi's eyes: "Completely defeat the Cheng family." ”
"Uh...... Master Qu Dazhuang, are you going to catch up with the rhythm of extermination? Qin Baichuan had goosebumps all over his body.
"The competition in the shopping mall is like this, Cheng Yangtian has suffered such a big loss, he pretends to be generous on the surface, how can he not hate me half to death in his heart? Since Cheng Xingyun took the initiative to make a move under the sign of the Cheng family, then I will put on a posture and fight to the death with the Cheng family. Qu Xi has a kind of general demeanor: "Besides, this mountain does not tolerate two tigers, preemptively, and then reprimand, as long as we are more prepared, even if the Cheng family has a deep foothold, we also have a chance to win." ”
"Let's toss." Qin Baichuan shrugged, Qu Xi's words did sound a little reasonable.
"Then I'll assume that you agree." A look of joy flashed in Qu Xi's beautiful eyes, and she reached out and took out two things from her arms, the first one was a thick small cloth bag, she gently put it on the table, and pushed it to Qin Baichuan: "I have inquired, the Hundred Flowers Workshop wants silver, and you also need silver for the Bliss Sect, here are sixty-five thousand taels, for you." ”
"Give it to me?" Qin Baichuan's heart trembled suddenly, and he looked at Qu Xi with disbelief on his face. Although the Splendid Villa is a big household in this Jiangling City, it is only a balance of tens of thousands of taels of silver every year after removing the cost of eating and drinking, and these silvers must be fixed to a part of the Qu family's old mansion, and the 65,000 taels will definitely occupy a large part of the amount even if it is not all of Quxi's savings.
"What, isn't it too little?" Seeing that Qin Baichuan didn't go to get the silver ticket, Qu Xi was a little unhappy: "It's not that I'm stingy, it's just that the villa has been only in and out since the chrysanthemum sales, and I have to pay salaries, and I have to prepare flower seeds and fertilizers for next year, I wanted to give you 100,000 taels, but I can't help but set aside some silver as a rainy day." If you feel that it is less, I will give you another 5,000 taels at most. ”
"It's not too little, it's too much." Qin Baichuan didn't know what he felt in his heart, since ancient times, money has been the root and seedling of trouble, he can casually let a woman betray a man, he can easily turn his brothers against him, these 65,000 taels of silver can even buy a thousand lives casually in this era.
"It's not too little." Qu Xi's face looked a little better: "With everything you have done for me and for the Splendid Villa, this bit of silver is nothing." Well, maybe you don't like to hear that, as you said, you shouldn't be measured in silver. ”
"Quxi...... It is true that the Hundred Flowers Workshop needs silver, but five thousand taels is more than enough, and the rest ...... I will use it to subsidize the Bliss. Qin Baichuan said with some embarrassment: "Use your money to do my thing, I think...... Not very comfortable. ”
"You still have a marriage contract with me, after this incident, what else do you want to divide between you and me?" A faint flush rose on Qu Xi's face, but it quickly dissipated: "Besides, didn't you give me a gold medal?" ”
"Where did I give it, you obviously snatched it?" Qin Baichuan was a little broken.
"Then I don't care." Qu Xi snorted: "If you still feel uncomfortable, you can also treat it as a loan, and when you have money in the future, you will double it back to me, and if you don't have money, forget it." ”
"Thank you." Qin Baichuan gritted his teeth, he really needs silver too much now, although it feels a bit like being raised by a little white face, but he can be regarded as borrowing.
Qin Baichuan put the silver ticket in his arms, Qu Xi pursed his lips, and handed the second thing to Qin Baichuan: "There is also this." ”
