Chapter 182: Fool
The embarrassed look on Mei Zhiyuan's face flashed, and he said, "My eldest sister is at home, but she doesn't know what she is doing now, let me let people take a look." ”
Mei Zhiyuan turned around and ordered a family member to go into the courtyard to return to Ruoxue.
After a while, the family came out and invited Huang Bingshan in.
Huang Bingshan had a smile on his face, and followed the family inside, he just wanted to embarrass the young master of the Mei family just now, but he didn't think that he actually held a grudge, and he didn't invite him in and hung him there.
Ruoxue was dressed in a plain white filial piety dress, wearing only a silver hairpin on her bun, and a white velvet flower was inserted obliquely into the bun, which made her whole person look more noble.
Huang Bingshan entered the flower hall, and his eyes involuntarily stayed on Ruoxue for a while before he said two words of mourning and change.
Ruoxue invited him to sit aside, Lianxin brought him tea, and Ruoxue asked him what he meant.
Huang Bingshan took a sip of tea lightly before he spoke: "The day before yesterday, I received a letter from the boss of Duan, the capital, he asked me to buy all the silk in your hand, but I don't have so much silver for a while; You also know that my money is in the hands of that prince, and I asked for it a few times, and he only gave me two-thirds of it,......"
He also wanted to continue the tirade, but Ruoxue said: "You are late, my family's silk caught fire on the canal, and all the silk was burned. ”
"What?"
Huang Bingshan wanted to drink tea to cover up the embarrassment of being interrupted, but when he heard what she said, he was stunned for a moment, and then his hand shook, and half a bowl of tea was spilled on his body.
He jumped up in shock, and threw the tea bowl out casually.
He looked at Ruoxue in disbelief, seeing her calm expression, there was no painful look of losing more than 100,000 taels of silver at all, "What you said is true?" He said.
Ruoxue smiled and said, "Of course it's true." Uncle Huang won't think I'm joking about this, right? I won't joke with other people's things in my house, because I can't live with my relatives at home.
Does Uncle Huang know what the consequences of burning those silks are? ”
As soon as her father left, Huang Bingshan calculated that she would go to their family to be their daughter-in-law, but fortunately she did not agree to marry, otherwise she would have gone into the wolf's den.
Later, when Jiutong's wealth was run, he wanted to ask for a share of their family with a silver ticket, and then joined forces with others to force her to give up half of the Mei family.
What a big appetite!
Ruoxue's laughter gradually expanded, and what was originally a chuckle turned into a loud laugh, and the laughter could be heard far away.
Huang Bingshan shuddered, so much silk was burned, and the silk that pressed the price of silk all the way down was gone, so the price of silk would gradually rise.
Then their silk can be pressed not to sell first, and then sold when the price rises.
No, what's wrong?
Huang Bingshan looked at Ruoxue who was sitting there in horror, ignoring the image and laughing, slowly raised his hand and pointed at her and said, "You...... When did you start calculating me? ”
He remembered that there was a gambling agreement between them, if the price of silk rose more than last year by the end of the year, then their Huang family would pay half of their property to Ruoxue.
At that time, the Huang family was no longer one of the top businessmen in Jinling City.
Ruoxue laughed enough, took the handkerchief from Lianxin's hand, wiped the tears from the laughter, and said, "When will I dare to calculate Uncle Huang, you!" You've been scheming on me and my family all along. Isn't it? Uncle Huang!? ”
Huang Bingshan's eyes were a little dodgy, and a kind smile appeared on his face again, and he said, "The eldest niece said that you were laughing, when did I calculate you!" I ......"
Ruoxue smiled slyly and said, "Uncle Huang, let's go to your shop and have a look, don't have anything else you don't know." ”
The smile on Huang Bingshan's face froze, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.
He bowed his hand to Ruoxue and said, "There are still some things in my family that I have said goodbye first, and I will come to the house with my family to worship the old lady another day." ”
Without waiting for Ruoxue to get up to send off, Huang Bingshan hurriedly turned around and left.
Ruolan ran in from the back door of the flower hall in filial piety, stretched out her hand to grab Ruoxue and said, "Who was that person just now, the third sister said that he was a bad person." ”
Ruohong also walked in from the back door, waiting for her eyes to scare her, and said, "I know the complaint, I won't tell you a story next time." Hum! ”
Ruolan grimaced at her, let go of Ruoxue's hand and ran to play, she knew that Ruohong was scaring her, it wasn't true at all, she had been scared by Ruohong many times, and she became skinny.
"Are you feeling better? Why don't you invite Dr. Tong to take a look? ”
Ruoxue saw Ruohong coming, and asked with concern.
When she came out of Old Madam Cao just now, she looked at Ruohong's face and asked her to go back to her own room in Guanfang Courtyard to rest, but don't faint again like last time.
"I'm fine, really."
Ruohong pointed to the door and asked, "What is he doing here?" It's not here to mourn, is it? ”
"No, Boss Duan in the capital asked him to buy our silk, listen to him, he doesn't want to buy it." Ruoxue said.
Ruohong also smiled, walked to the table and sat down, "If he knew that in the past few days, there is not much left of their family's silk and satin, he must be dumbfounded!" She said.
A few days ago, Ruoxue put the falcon back, and she asked people to buy silk from other people's shops outside.
Huang Bingshan hurriedly came out of Mei's house, Mei Zhiyuan greeted him, but he ignored it, got into the carriage and urged him to his shop.
When he arrived at Jiqing Silk Village, when he entered the lobby, he collapsed to the ground.
On the counters, the shelves were empty, not even a single hair was there.
When the shopkeeper saw him coming, he came out of the counter, and as soon as he shouted "host", he saw him collapse on the ground, and hurriedly went up to ask him where he was uncomfortable and if he wanted to ask the doctor to take a look.
Huang Bingshan raised his hand and pointed to the counter, his lips trembled and said, "Where is my silk?" Why is it gone? ”
When the shopkeeper saw that he was asking about this, he smiled and said that they were all sold, and they were sold for three or four taels of silver higher than the market price, "I made a lot of money this time!" He said.
Huang Bingshan raised his hand and gave him a big mouth, and shouted, "Who bought it?" Chase me back. ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was stupid, he had been sold for a long time, how could he chase it back! "It's not one person who bought it, it's dozens of people who bought it separately, and it's been selling for days."
"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"
The shopkeeper looked aggrieved, "I said it,...... And that day, when you were here, a man added two taels of silver to buy two hundred pieces of brocade. I went to you specifically to ask about it, and you said that if there is such a fool in the future, there is no need to tell you.
In the past few days, there have been a lot of such fools who have bought all the goods in the shop. He said.
