Chapter 242: The Missing Title Deed

"Shopkeeper Lu, what are you doing here?"

"Master, please, don't sell the paper mill."

As soon as the shopkeeper saw that the old man and the young master were coming, he knelt down and kowtowed, saying:

"Sold?"

Shang Ruonan listened to it and asked with some surprise:

"Dad, why are you going to sell the paper mill?"

Shang Dongliang himself was surprised and said:

"I didn't! If you want to sell it, I won't tell you? ”

yes, I don't think my father would really sell it without his consent. But which one is the shopkeeper talking about?

Hearing Shang Dongliang's words, the shopkeeper was also stunned for a moment, and then confirmed:

"Master, you're saying you don't plan to sell the paper mill?"

Shang Dongliang hurriedly stretched out his hand to help the shopkeeper of the road up and said:

"Your Lu family has followed our business since we started doing business. Even if you sell it, you won't send your family away, what are you worried about? Besides, although the paper mill didn't make much money, it was the ancestral property of our merchants. How dare I sell it? ”

Shang Ruonan frowned and said:

"Where did you hear that you were going to sell?"

The shopkeeper said:

"Two days ago, a man came to our place to see the workshop, and he came with the second lady's housekeeper."

"What? What do you say Second Lady? ”

Shang Dongliang was a little surprised, second lady? What does it mean?

"Master, it's the second master's family, the people from the second master's family brought people to see the workshop, saying that they were going to sell it. They have the deed to the workshop. ”

"Title deed?"

"Title deed?"

Shang Dongliang and Shang Ruonan were both surprised and said:

"How can they have a title deed?"

Shang Ruonan asked again:

"Dad, who did this workshop divide to back then?"

Shang Dongliang also had a black face. Over the years, this workshop has not made a penny, and I have to post some of it from time to time, but I don't want to, is it helping others? How could the title deed be on their side!

Shang Dongliang immediately turned around and entered the study, and took out a box from the dark room, which contained all the deeds of properties from various places. After looking around, I really couldn't find the deed of this workshop.

Shang Dongliang sank a face. When did this happen? I've seen the deed myself, but how could it be that one is missing?

Shang Ruonan saw that his father's face was not good-looking, and he knew that the deed was real. It seems that people really have a deed in their hands. So, my family has been doing other people's business all these years? It's originally a sticking business, but it's always been sticking it by itself.

Now the family may not be able to survive. Because when Shang Ruonan brought people from the clan to rectify the business from the last time, Shang Ruonan then suppressed all kinds of business in their family.

In Baiyuan City, which business does Shang Ruonan's family want to suppress, this is not a matter of being caught?

It looks like it, just after this year, I can't go on over there.

Shang Ruonan also blackened his face and looked at his father again:

"What about the deed of the shopkeeper's family? It can't be at their house, right? ”

Shang Ruonan went to see it last time, although that location was a little off, it was not the main street of Baiyuan City now, but that courtyard was an excellent and very large courtyard.

I heard that the old lady Shang bought it from an official family back then. Later, he made more money, and after he repaired this merchant mansion, he used it to make a paper mill.

And the Lu family, who have always lived over there, has always been making a living in a paper mill. In fact, if the paper mill can't go, it's not all because of the Lu family. Because the capital came to the Hou Ye's house to make the Mo Danqing, the papermaking master who was found from the palace naturally did better than the merchant.

So later, the merchant's paper mill could only maintain itself, and from time to time it had to lose a little money. It can be regarded as the shopkeeper on the road, and the family has done their best.

But even so, the merchant never intended to give up on this paper mill. I'm still doing it, and if I lose it, I'll just take it from elsewhere and paste it. Earned, so much the better.

However, Shang Dongliang remembered that the old lady left this paper workshop with him, saying that it was an ancestral business and could not be lost. But why did you give that deed to the second room?

Merchant two bedrooms.

"Madam, the man from the He family said that the workshop is a little old. Although the yard is quite large, the contents inside are dilapidated. So you have to put down two hundred taels on the price you mentioned. ”

The housekeeper of the second room of the merchant is also a person brought by the second wife of the merchant Lu from her mother's house. This person is now a close friend of the Lu family, so the Lu family trusts him so much, so he handed over the matter of selling this workshop to him.

Speaking of this workshop, Lu is also a little funny. Originally, this workshop was not assigned to the second room of the merchant. This Lu also knows. It's just that back then, the big house and the second house were not as opposed as they are now.

Once, Shu Yunniang gave birth to the second child Xianglan, and the Lu family took her son to congratulate her, and at that time, the merchant also put three dynasties of wine, and several women of the Lu family chatted in the backyard. The men in the front yard ate and drank, and they didn't know what they said, so they asked someone to spread the word, saying that they were going to take the eldest son of the Lu family to the outer courtyard.

Later, I heard that it was drunk, and Shang Dongliang expressed some regrets that Shu Yunniang was still a daughter. Therefore, Shang Deli thought about bringing his son here. Give Shang Dongliang a hug and bring some joy, so that Shang Dongliang can give birth to a son as soon as possible.

Lu's eldest son is about the same age as Nian Lan. He also looks chubby for nothing. It also has the handsome face of a businessman. Shang Dongliang also liked it, so he went into the study to deal with something. I don't know what's going on. Anyway, when he came back, Lu took off the child's clothes, only to find that the child had a piece of paper on him.

When I opened it, it was the deed of the old ancestral paper mill. At that moment, the Lu family was overjoyed, and thought it was a gift from Shang Dongliang to his son. Turning back and talking about business profits. Shang Deli frowned and said:

"No, he didn't give it to the workshop. It's for my son Yiyu's handle, it's used to play, I took it, and I'm afraid that my son will break it. ”

"And this ......."

While looking at the deed in his hand, Lu thought that it seemed that this deed was unintentionally taken away by his son. Children who can't read and write should be fun. Just look at the deed being crumpled up.

It seems that this is a wealth of his family. Don't talk about the appointment between husband and wife, just let it go first.

Back then, the workshop was not very good, and it happened to be suppressed by this Mo Danqing from Beijing, and there were still a few shops in the second room of the merchant that were profitable at that time, and they didn't want to take over this hot potato. Although some shameless people think it's their own, but now they don't make money, what are they going to do?

As soon as I put it down, I put it down for many years. Until now, the business of the second house can no longer make a living, and the basic family expenses can no longer be spent, so I thought that I could sell this workshop.
