After Yu Xingshu and Wang Sheng had a quarrel in Guangsheng Yaxing, they returned to Ningxing Inn, the largest inn in Shun'an Prefecture, and Yu Mancang was drinking tea alone in the room at this time.

"I'm back." Seeing his son and his buddies coming in, Yu Mancang saw the expressions of the two of them and knew in his heart that he didn't buy the shop.

"Dad, the people in Fucheng are all low-eyed, and we are all willing to pay an extra fifty taels to buy that shop, and people don't sell it." Yu Xingshu sat down angrily, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all.

"The shops in those areas are not something that anyone can buy with money." Yu Mancang is at this age, and he is well versed in the importance of connections and power, he asked Yu Xingshu and Wang Sheng to come forward, he actually knew in his heart that eight or nine floors could not be bought, but there was no absolute, he still wanted to give it a try, even if it didn't work out in the end, at least he wanted to catch it.

"Noisy?" Yu Mancang looked at his son's expression and asked in a low voice.

"Well, I'll just say that they look down on people." Yu Xingshu said angrily, followed by a slight apprehension, "Dad, are we really okay if we make trouble like this?" ”

Although Yu Xingshu's temperament is not very good, he also knows a truth when he goes out, that is, a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, not to mention that his own family is not a strong dragon, and if he doesn't succeed in buying it today, he will say something like that, as long as it is because his father said it in advance, he can make noise.

"It's fine." Yu Mancang replied indifferently, "Anyway, we are not from Fucheng, and if the shop is not successful, we will not open a shop in Fucheng, it's not a thing." ”

"Pack up your things, and we'll go to Huaijin County later, I've already arranged the carriage." Yu Mancang made a decision.

"Dad, in fact, there are a lot of shops for sale, and those in other areas can be bought as long as you have money." Yu Xingshu said.

"It's not easy to do business when you open a shop in those places." Yu Mancang said, "This time I came to think about whether I could buy a good location, if not, I went to Huaijin County to buy it, it is also close to Jinshui Town, where we go in the future, it is convenient to go back and forth." ”

Every place to do business, if you want to make the business bigger, you have to have someone behind you to rely on, this truth is applicable to any place, Yu Mancang does not have any connections in Fucheng, thinking that if the lot is bought well, how much can give people a kind of fear, and then as long as you slowly go out to socialize and make friends, there will always be improvement.

"Dad, isn't our business in town okay now?" Yu Xingshu muttered, "It's all to blame for Piaoxiang Wine Shop, really, they offended the owner of Qiuwei Restaurant, and we were also implicated." ”

Yu Mancang's face sank, in fact, whether it was Piaoxiang Wine Shop that affected him, or whether he was tired of Piaoxiang Wine Shop, or both, but the result was that his own family was now boycotted by Piaoxiang Wine Shop, not only that, but Piaoxiang Wine Shop also let his familiar shop serve up his own business.

Yu Mancang hates He Jiabao the most now, he is the one who went into the water by himself, but now he is hiding in the county seat, although the master of the Qiu Mansion drove him and his little concubine sister out of the Qiu Mansion, but there is no punishment, he can't swallow this breath.

In addition, Yu Mancang is also a little more jealous of the Qiu family's aunt and grandmother, it is really a good means, as soon as the previous news spread, he hit the master of the Qiu house, what about the face of his husband, and the sharp means did not clean up a concubine at once, and now she is the only one in the backyard of the Qiu house, and she also provoked the relationship between the Piaoxiang wine shop and her own family.

Although Yu Mancang is also dissatisfied with the Qiu family's aunt and grandmother, he has no strength to deal with it now, not to mention that the other party is a woman, what he wants now is to make the Yu Ji grocery store bigger again, and Jinshui Town is now more resistant to himself, so he has to change places.

Over the years, I have accumulated a lot of money by relying on the Yuji grocery store, and it is not a problem to buy a good shop, and now it seems that Huaijin County is the most suitable.

He Jiabao is also in Huaijin County, if he really meets him again, he will have to say hello.

Yu Mancang was silent thinking about things, Yu Xingshu was a little sullen, and Wang Sheng hesitated whether he should tell what he had seen about the Qi family before, but after thinking about it, he still said it, after all, Qi Jiuli was a person from Qiuwei Restaurant.

"The shopkeeper, when I was in Guangsheng Yaxing just now, I saw the Qi family." Wang Sheng said in a low voice.

Yu Mancang came back to his senses when he heard this, "The Qi family? Autumn Flavor Restaurant Qi Jiuli? ”

"Yes." Wang Sheng nodded.

"Apart from him, is there anyone else who has seen Autumn Flavor Restaurant?" Yu Mancang asked.

"No, it's all the Qi family, and the old man who came to the shop before has two small ones." Wang Sheng replied.

"Oh, that's their Qi family's business, but what are they doing in Fucheng?" Yu Mancang was a little puzzled, and after thinking about it for a while, he understood, "By the way, they are taking the college exam these days, don't they have a scholar in their family, they should have come with them." ”

"Hmph, our family's affairs, I don't think that Qi Jiuli can get rid of it." Yu Xingshu dissatisfied.

"What power can their little peasant family have, and will our Yuji grocery store still be harmed by them?" Yu Mancang disagreed, "The Qi family is going to stay in Jinshui Town for the rest of their lives, unless their family can study and become an official, otherwise ......"

Yu Mancang paused, "Wang Sheng, you go and inquire, where their family lives now, it is okay to make friends, in case there is really an official scholar, it is also a connection." ”

"Dad, I don't know how many years he has been going to be an official, is it necessary to hurry up and make friends?" Before Wang Sheng could speak, Yu Xingshu blurted out, "What's more, you asked Wang Sheng to inquire about where he went, who knows where they live, and he can't find out, who will know a person from the countryside." ”

"Guest houses aren't cheap, can they afford to live? I must find a cheap corner, I don't think it's necessary, not to mention Dad, we're not going to Huaijin County? Yu Xingshu asked.

Yu Mancang nodded, "Yes, pack up and go back." ”

Wang Sheng didn't say anything, but he always felt that the Qi family was not the same as before, and today from the clothes of the four of them, there was no shadow of the first time they came to the Yuji grocery store, except for the dress, there were other differences, but Wang Sheng couldn't say what was the difference.

The few people in Qi Jiuli who were talked about didn't know their status in the hearts of Yu Mancang and others.

After going to Qi Jiao's house in the morning, he politely refused lunch, and the four of them went shopping and bought something, Qi Jiuli thought of some people, how could he bring them some small gifts back.
