Chapter 60 Mingluan Chaodian Mandarin Duck Spectrum The Liu family discussed ill-gotten wealth
"Mingluan, what do you want?" Seeing Liu Mingluan staring at the sculpture in a daze, Che Lili asked.
"It's nothing, I'm thinking about what gift I should bring to my dad after I haven't been home for so long?"
Liu Mingluan responded with duplicity, but Che Lili thought carefully. Liu Mingluan was right, he met his father-in-law for the first time, and saw that Youzhou was so prosperous and the people were so wealthy, it was not wise to bring the silver, and then asked, "Does your father have any favorite things?" β
Liu Mingluan thought for a moment and responded: "He doesn't seem to have anything particularly liked. As soon as the words fell, Liu Mingluan suddenly remembered a person, a woman.
The woman was very beautiful, and I remember going to the market with my father, and my father saw that the woman's eyes were straight. Since then, Daddy has been a big fan of going to the market, and he always dresses appropriately. At that time, Liu Mingluan was still a little angry, after all, it had been less than three years since his mother passed away, and his father had crooked thoughts now, how could he be worthy of his mother's spirit in the sky?
Just now, Liu Mingluan suddenly felt that his father was very pitiful, the head of a family, there was not even a woman by his side, and now he was not by his side, and no one washed his clothes when they were dirty. Once the idea came to mind, he suddenly had a crooked mind and decided to give his father an unexpected surprise.
Although Liu Mingluan is not very old, he knows a lot about the world, he knows that the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, or a person with a wife cries to a bachelor and complains that it is really bitter to have a wife, and he will immediately get such an angry response - you are a full man and you don't know that a hungry man is hungry!
After telling this idea to Che Li, Che Lili strongly supported it, after all, he is a man, he understands men better than women, a man who has a successful career, there is no woman around him, how lonely and lonely is that?
"Do you know where that woman lives?"
"There's a mouth under the nose, just ask. Let's go to the cloth shop first to buy her a piece of flower cloth, women like this, it can also show our sincerity, right? β
Liu Mingluan can be said to be smart for a while, she takes into account the sophistication of people, but she does not consider whether people have a family or not, is she single?
The car drove the car towards the cloth mill, and after a while, he came to the door of the cloth mill. Liu Mingluan stood on the carriage, staring at the plaque of the cloth workshop, with four big characters written on it - Zongjia Cloth Workshop. No wonder she was a little surprised, when she ran away from home, Zong Wusheng had not yet reorganized the sect family. Now the cloth workshop in Youzhou has also been contracted by the Danzhou Zongjia and has become the Zongjia cloth workshop.
Liu Mingluan got off the car, the car was slippery, and the two walked into the Zongjia Cloth Workshop. The faΓ§ade is not large, the decoration is simple, a row of shelves is placed in the faΓ§ade, but the top is empty.
Behind the shelves, a beautiful woman was holding a rag, concentrating on wiping the container, and when she heard the footsteps, she stopped her work, turned around and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, the cloth is sold out today, let's come back tomorrow." β
Just such a simple sentence, Liu Mingluan was stunned. Xindao really didn't take much effort to get it, and the woman he was looking for was close at hand. Then he said excitedly: "It's okay, I'm just here to find you." β
The woman is Yao, the wife of Zong Qingheng, the great elder of the Zong family, and she is also Zong Yu's mother.
Yao Shi looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman in front of him, the man was more faceless, and he should be dressed as the young master of the big family. However, this woman seemed to be very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it for a while.
"Looking for me?" The woman blinked her big eyes, and although there were traces of time on her face, she still couldn't hide the charm of her early years, and asked, "I don't know what the two of you are looking for me?" β
"That's right." Liu Mingluan said eloquently: "Someone wants to invite you as a guest, but I am afraid that you will not appreciate the light, so let us make a special trip to invite you." β
Yao Shi was even more confused, and wondered: "Who wants to invite me, what is there to invite me as a woman?" β
"That's a mistake, you can clean up quickly, and you'll know if you go." While talking, Liu Mingluan stepped forward and picked up a rag to help Yao finish it quickly, so that he could leave quickly.
"Girl, I can't help it." Yao snatched the rag and said, "At first glance, you are a child of a wealthy family, you can't do these jobs." β
Between the two of them, Zong Yu just walked in from outside the door, holding a string of sugar gourds in his hand, and shouted when he entered the door: "Mother, Liu Hulu's sugar gourd doesn't need money today, and the children who go there will give it away for free." You see, I got a bunch too. β
Liu Mingluan and Che Lili saw a three- or four-year-old child, and called their mother when they entered the door, and immediately understood that they were family people. Che Lili was very surprised, although the children were so old, this woman could not tell that she had given birth to a child at all, at first glance, she was about twenty years old. Liu Mingluan's eyes gradually showed a look of disappointment, and he beckoned the car to leave.
Che Lili originally thought that Liu Mingluan knew everything about other people, but now seeing that other people's children are so old, he doesn't speak, and leaves as he turns around.
In the blink of an eye, Yao Shi saw that the two of them were leaving, and asked, "Didn't you say that someone wanted to invite me?" Do you want to order flower cloth? There was no response to her questioning.
Liu Mingluan returned to the car with Che Li, and Che Lili teased: "You said you, people have families and children, you have a bad idea!" β
Liu Mingluan turned his head suddenly, glared at Che Lili and said: "This matter is left to you, if she has a family, you will break it up for me, and if she has a child, you will kill me!" β
Che Lili stared at Liu Mingluan in surprise, an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart was fleeting, at this moment, he was faintly aware that Liu Mingluan was a woman who would do anything to achieve her goals, and thought in her heart, is it really good for him to marry Liu Mingluan?
"Do you know why I have to do this?" As smart as her, Liu Mingluan saw the deep meaning flashing in Che Li's eyes, and explained: "Because she is the clansman of the person I hate the most, as long as it is his relative, I will let their wives be separated!" β
Che Lili was relieved, it turned out that Liu Mingluan wanted to do this for a reason, and asked hatefully: "Who is your enemy?" Tell me, I'll kill him for you! β
"I'll tell you later, I won't let him die a happy death."
The car nodded emphatically, glanced at the Zongjia cloth workshop again, and drove the car away.
β¦β¦
The sky is already dark, and the Liu family is full of lights today, and there is laughter and laughter in the living room.
The son-in-law came to the door as a VIP, and Liu Zhenqing let the car slip to the guest of honor seat and sat down, and arranged Liu Mingluan on his other side, accompanied by the major elders of the family.
"Today is the big day of the Liu family, Mingluan brought my son-in-law back for me, look at my good son-in-law, that is the famous young master of the Underworld Sect in Lingzhou, in the future, in Youzhou, see which family dares to look down on our Liu family?"
"If anyone dares to be disrespectful to the Liu family, I will lead the 30,000 black armor troops of the Hades Sect to kill them and destroy them!" The car slippery Li immediately echoed.
Hearing this bold statement, the elders were immediately overjoyed, and they stood up and toasted frequently, constantly chanting that Liu Mingluan has the ability, and it is up to her to revitalize the Liu family.
Liu Mingluan was so proud that she deliberately instructed Che Lili to do this and that in front of her family, to show her status in her eyes. Che Lili was already very fond of Liu Mingluan, and the more he instructed, the happier he became, and kept sending vegetables to Liu Mingluan's mouth, and the envious elders applauded.
"I left for more than two months, but I didn't expect Youzhou to be so prosperous." During the banquet, Liu Mingluan made an idle remark, which immediately caused Daddy and the elders to sigh, and then asked, "Daddy, what's wrong, what are you sighing for?" β
"Youzhou is becoming more and more prosperous, but our business is becoming more and more depressed." Liu Zhenqing said this, stopped, and didn't seem to want to say any more.
Great Elder Liu Zhenyan continued: "The Zheng family in Danzhou has changed the patriarch, and the new patriarch has found another vein in the Fluttering Mountain Range, and now he mines ore by himself and is self-sufficient. Only occasionally when the ore is not enough, will we buy a little from us at a low price, and we will basically not make money by selling it to them, alas! β
"Wouldn't it be nice to change to another business?" Liu Mingluan said disappreciatively.
"What kind of business? How can there be so much good business?! Liu Zhenqing said in frustration.
Liu Mingluan's eyes rolled, and he wrote lightly: "There is a kind of soul transfer grass in the Underworld Sect, and the dignitaries and nobles who come to the Underworld Sect to watch the fighting beasts like to smell its aroma, and we sell it at a very high price, so you might as well sell the Soul Shifting Grass too, and you will definitely make money." β
In business, Liu Zhenqing immediately became interested when she heard it, and asked, "Daughter, tell me, what is the Soul Shifting Grass?" β
Liu Mingluan bit a chicken leg, shook his head, and motioned to his father to ask the car slippery.
Che Lili was very knowledgeable and took the initiative to explain: "Soul Shifting Grass is a kind of plant, which my father bought seeds from a merchant in the imperial city of Zhongzhou and carefully cultivated it at a high price. After this grass is picked, it is dried over a simmer, and the aroma emitted after ignition can make people flutter. β
"And this amazing plant?" After listening to this, Liu Zhenqing's eyes lit up, and she asked: "Then how much silver do you have for takeaway?" β
"Ten gold for small plants, 100 gold for big plants."
"Huh?!"
Not only Liu Zhenqing, but even the four elders opened their mouths in shock when they heard the price. They sell a bunch of ore for only 100 gold, and this grass can be sold for 100 gold, it's incredible!
"Slippery." Liu Zhenqing looked like he was obsessed with money, and asked, "Then you can get us some soul transfer grass, and we will try it too?" β
"No problem." Che Slippery Li Zhengse said: "But the Soul Shifting Grass has a cost, and I have to trade it in cash from the headquarters of the Underworld Sect, so I'm afraid I can't give it to you for free." β
"Out of the way. Let's buy a few plants first, give a good price, and if they sell well, we buy them in large quantities. β
"Good. Just do what my father-in-law said. I toast you. β
β¦β¦
It's late at night.
The villagers of Shuangyu Village did not sleep.
Zong Wusheng closed his eyes in the room and pondered, thinking about his next move. At this time, Zong Wusheng's appearance changed greatly, and his original gray-white shawl long hair was cut short, leaving only a long bundle, which was restrained by the forehead belt and stood up.
And one side of his cheek also has a Γ-shaped scar.
Not only that, but his clothing style has also changed a lot, the original snow-white brocade robe has been replaced by a close-fitting black animal skin suit. The leather vest was tightly wrapped around his body, and his sturdy arms were exposed, embroidered with a hideous monster.
This is the Dharma of Zongwu - gluttony.
On the lower body, Zong Wusheng was wearing a pair of tight black leather pants, tied to the muscular thighs, showing stone-like muscle lines.
At this time, Zong Wusheng was very different from the previous scholarly anger, which could be described as wild, revealing a domineering aura all over his body.
These are all carefully prepared by Zong Wusheng for the next step.
"Zong Gongzi, have you rested?"
Zong Wusheng, who was meditating with his eyes closed, heard Yu Biao's voice and got up to open the door. When he saw that the entire Shuangyu Village villagers were gathered outside the door, there was a look of doubt on his face.
