Chapter 174: A visit to Yihong Courtyard

But now that Madame Hu saw the mottled cloth, her heart became more and more frightened, and she did not dare to leave, so she sat next to her and stared at the drying cloth tightly.

On the other side, Han Jia'er sent the news from Hu Mansion to the boiled world, and Lin Jiu, who received the news, smiled and teased Han Jia'er: "This Mrs. Hu's ability to resist pressure is not good." ”

However, Lin Jiu didn't mind adding fuel to the fire, she secretly sent someone to pass the news of the failure of dyeing cloth in the Qingyu Cloth Workshop to the shopkeepers who signed the contract with Mrs. Hu.

Within half a day, all the shopkeepers came to the door, but Mrs. Hu was tired of coping: "Don't worry, shopkeepers, since I have signed a contract with you, I will naturally present cloth at that time." ”

A shopkeeper stretched out his hand and pointed to the mottled cloth that had not yet dried in the courtyard, and sneered: "Does Mrs. Hu want to use this colored cloth to perfunctory us?" ”

Mrs. Hu's face turned cold: "My Qingyu Cloth Workshop will naturally do what it says, don't mess around, don't mess around, come to see off guests." ”

Saying that, Mrs. Hu directly ordered someone to invite the shopkeepers out, Lin Jiu didn't expect that Mrs. Hu would be so tough, but it didn't matter, just wait now.

As Lin Jiu expected, two days later, Mrs. Hu came to the door in person.

Mrs. Hu was originally reluctant to let go. went to find Lin Jiu, but those shopkeepers were too pressing, so they had no choice but to make this decision.

As soon as she entered the door, Mrs. Hu opened her mouth to greet her, and her warm appearance seemed to have never been dirty between the two.

"Miss Lin is also in this Blackwater Town now, a person in the limelight, why do you need to live in such a humble house."

Although the tone was enthusiastic, there was a derogatory meaning in and out of the words, but Lin Jiu had already mastered all the orders placed by Mrs. Hu, so she knew that if she couldn't get the cloth, the Hu family would just compensate those shopkeepers for the liquidated damages, and the family wealth would be scattered.

"Mrs. Hu laughed, how can I afford such a big gift from Mrs. Hu, and I am not sensible, so I let Mrs. Hu come to visit in person, since this is the case, I will be the host today, please Mrs. Hu in the boiled world."

Because Lin Jiu's attitude was quite gentle, Mrs. Hu naturally would not refuse, put a lot of gifts she brought in the courtyard, and took her entourage to follow Lin Jiu to the boiled world.

After all, the hanging blade did not hang on Lin Jiu's head, so she was very comfortable along the way, and Mrs. Hu was also calm, and she didn't make her own request for a long time.

Even after sitting down, she smiled and said, "It's better to have a pot of sake, you and I can chat freely, and it's not interesting." ”

Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows, but did not refute her words, his eyes turned and glanced at the guy who was guarding the side, and the guy turned around after receiving the order. went downstairs, and a pot of peach blossom wine was delivered in a short time.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, but Lin Jiu was still unmoved, Mrs. Hu couldn't hold her breath anymore and took the lead in opening her mouth to introduce the topic.

"Some time ago, the shopkeeper Chen also went to the Qingyu Cloth Workshop to sell the cloth, and the cloth I have seen is really good, but this time I heard that Miss Lin's dyeing room is no longer in production, I don't know why?"

Lin Jiu snorted coldly in his heart, It's not because of you, but there is a bitter look on his face.

"Mrs. Hu didn't know, I spent a lot of money to buy the dye recipe, thinking that I could make a lot of money by relying on this, but the day before yesterday I called a primary apprentice to steal it, and before I could send someone to find it, the news of his death came, and the recipe disappeared, so I had to comfort myself that maybe I didn't have this fortune, so I simply closed the dye workshop."

In order to plot that recipe before, Mrs. Hu had already inquired about the things in Gu Ji's dyeing workshop, and naturally knew that the previous recipe had always been in Lin Jiu's hands before, but now listening to her words, she couldn't be sure what she meant, so she could only pretend to be sorry.

"It's Miss Lin's misfortune to meet such a guy, and you have to be more careful with your next time."

"That's what Mrs. Hu said." Lin Jiu nodded, "Lin Jiu will definitely be more dedicated to selecting people in the future." ”

Although today's Lin Jiu has always lowered her eyebrows and saluted her eyes, Mrs. Hu has already been brainwashed by Liu Qin, so she naturally will not believe that Lin Jiu is harmless.

No matter how Mrs. Hu leads, Lin Jiu doesn't show any signs, she sees that there must be no result today, so she doesn't make any corrections. Wrap up, end this meeting with dignity.

The news of Mrs. Hu's meeting with Lin Jiu soon reached Liu Qin's ears, she was shocked, and rushed directly to Hu's mansion as soon as she was excited.

When Liu Qin, who was full of displeasure, faced Mrs. Hu, she saw the tiredness in her eyes, and couldn't help but suppress her expression: "Sister, can you think of a way to resolve the current crisis now?" ”

Mrs. Hu, who heard the question, just shook her head decadently, and sat up from the soft collapse.

Liu Qin saw that Mrs. Hu didn't want to say more, but she didn't want to give up, so she continued to ask: "I heard that my sister met Lin Jiu today, I thought that my sister had already thought of a way to get through the difficulties, if it was the cloth that we really couldn't dye, how could we explain it to those shopkeepers." ”

Her words were not only a temptation for the two to meet, but also a real worry, because when the two discussed before, in order to appease Mrs. Hu's heart, Liu Qin even sold part of her dowry and bought a share in the Qingyu Cloth Workshop, so now she and the Qingyu Cloth Workshop are both prosperous and loss-making.

Mrs. Hu fully trusted Liu Qin, and didn't think much about her aggressive questioning at the coincidental time of the door, and cheered up to comfort her.

The two discussed repeatedly, but did not come to a result, and Lin Jiu on the other side began to move.

She asked Chen Nong to find a reliable deputy to assist Master Gu and reopened the Gu Ji Dyeing Workshop, as for the problem of sales, Lin Jiu had already had a plan, she directly bought a small shop, which also saved Chen Nong the hard work of running around to set up stalls and sell cloth.

And this news reached Mrs. Hu's ears, making her so angry that she almost turned her back on her anger, she has been studying with the dyeing master for a long time these days, although the dyed cloth skin is no longer mottled, but it still can't reach the amazing level, and some time ago, Lin Jiu obviously told her that she didn't know the secret recipe.

So Mrs. Hu really couldn't swallow this breath, so she secretly discussed with Liu Qin, wanting to teach Lin Jiu a good lesson, and Liu Qin was not suitable to come forward in this matter, so she gave full authority to Mrs. Hu, and she was not ambiguous, and handed over the matter to her nephew Chai Hao.

Chai Hao's hands and feet have never been clean when he is doing business, but he has a lot of connections in his hands, and after listening to his aunt's instructions, he immediately found someone to come. This person's name is Wu Er, he is a well-known bastard in the market, the famous place is very poor and delicious flowers and wine, his body has long been hollowed out over the years, and his dark eye sockets fell into Mrs. Hu's eyes, and he fell into a lot of disgust.

Mrs. Hu didn't want to have any trouble with this person. Wrapping, a few words of explanation, ordered the housekeeper to hand him the heavy purse containing the hard money, and invited the person away with a cold face.

As soon as Wu Er's front foot came out of Hu Mansion, Lin Jiu received the news that the person left behind by Han Jia'er when he went out on a mission recently was not very easy to call, and he didn't have much eyesight, so Lin Jiu was used to bothering him, just like today's incident, Lin Jiu planned to take action himself.

It is estimated that Mrs. Hu is not a stingy person, and the money given to Wu Er is enough for him to live happily all night, so Lin Jiu is not in a hurry, and has dinner with Zhao and others at home, and then goes out leisurely, only saying that he is going out for a walk.

Coincidentally, the Qinglou that Wu Er went to was Yihong Courtyard, and the old . The bustard was Wu Qing who wanted to kidnap Lin Jiu at the beginning, because he wanted to find a cheap deal with her, so Lin Jiu did not hide his face at this time.

The one-eyed dragon guarding the door was recognized at a glance, and he hesitated to step forward to stop him, but before he could fight, Lin Jiu only glanced at it, and the fear of the one-eyed dragon when he was beaten by Lin Jiu came back, and his figure froze, but for a moment, cold sweat was full of forehead.

Or Lin Jiuxian, laughed: "What are you nervous about?" I'm not here to smash the field, I'm going to call you old. Bustard come out, I have something to look for her. ”

The one-eyed dragon didn't dare to delay, so he pulled the gorgeous woman who was still soliciting customers next to him and asked her to invite Wu Qing.

The woman didn't know why, but the woman here had always respected the one-eyed dragon, so she took the handkerchief without asking too much, turned around and walked into the inner courtyard.

Wu Qing has been secretly investigating Lin Jiu since the last time Lin Jiu made trouble in Yihong Courtyard, paying attention to her movements, so Lin Jiu has resolved the crisis between Ma Baoqi and Zeng Yan several times, Wu Qing has seen it in his eyes, and his heart of friendship is getting heavier and heavier.
