Chapter 287: Is He Still the Head of the Family?
In Xia Wei Qingshan, it was sent by the head of the family to settle the money with the girl. ”
As he spoke, he solemnly took out an account book: "This is the breakdown of this year's income, and I invite the girl to look at it." ”
In business, since he chose to cooperate with the Wei family in the first place, he should not be ambiguous.
Yuan Lingchen took it and read it carefully, and then returned the account book to Wei Qingshan.
"There's nothing wrong with the ledger."
This year, she has received a full share of 600,000 taels of gold, and according to the fertilizer sent, the Wei family should not be cheating.
Wei Qingshan took the account book and hesitated a little: "Won't you take it back and take a closer look?" ”
"I've been living since I was a child, and it's the same whether I keep this ledger or not." When she took over the ledger, the system had already entered all the data into the database, and she only needed the system to call up this set of data if she wanted to know any news.
And even if there is no system, her memory is enough to remember the data in the ledger, so she said that she will never forget, but it is not a lie.
She didn't need to keep the account book as evidence for future reconciliation, if the Wei family cheated, she wouldn't have to fight with them at all, but would directly ask Qian Xun to destroy their manor in Jienan.
With untrustworthy people, she would rather die than do such nonsense.
This is also the confidence that she did not sign the contract at the beginning.
Wei Qingshan didn't say more, but he was a little more cautious about her in his heart.
If the girl of the Yuan family is really smart and not easy to fool, then what the lady proposes will not work, and if it incurs retaliation, the gain will still outweigh the loss.
If she is so foolish, the Wei family may not be happy to be shared so many benefits every year.
After all, the Wei family is not the head of the family alone, and the elders in the clan are also not simple.
Many thoughts flashed through Wei Qingshan's mind, and then he suddenly remembered another thing: "The head of the family sent me over this time, and there is another matter to discuss with the girl." ”
"What's the matter?"
"The kind of fertilizer sold in the Treasure Pavilion is really easy to use, our family owner wants to buy more, but the other side doesn't agree, does the girl help say something?"
Yuan Lingchen actually expected that the Wei family would have such a request, but he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.
"That kind of fertilizer is not easy to come by, and there are other uses for it over there, if you want more, I'm afraid it won't work."
Wei Qingshan was a little disappointed: "Is there really no room for retraction?" ”
"Merriam-Webster's pepper fields are already very considerable, and if they continue to expand, I am afraid that they will be coveted by many parties. If there is no harm or benefit, you will tell your master that it is enough. ”
She actually knew that Yunmengshan had another kind of fertilizer, which they had been using before, and this fertilizer could also increase the yield of pepper.
But she didn't want to feed the Wei family's appetite too much.
Wei Qingshan knew that he couldn't convince her, so he had to give up.
On the other side, the people of the Yuan family who were carrying it couldn't bear the weight of the box, and when they stepped into the second door, they stumbled, and the box rolled to the ground.
However, the wooden crates were tightly closed with special mechanisms, and even if they fell heavily to the ground, the contents did not fall out.
Yuan Minzhi stood aside, his mind full of questions, this kind of wooden box made with special technology is expensive in itself, and the wood used is also very hard, and it is generally only used when escorting valuables.
If you can't grasp how to open it, you can only use violence to split it, and if there are fragile things inside, it will be destroyed along with the wooden box.
Therefore, ordinary thieves do not dare to take a knife to split the box at will.
I just don't know what's in this box.
At this time, the descendants of the Yuan family, who were carrying the box, had already knelt on the ground tremblingly.
Yuan Lingchen already knew what was inside, and it was not a big deal to fall like this, there was no need to pursue it, but if he didn't investigate it at all, there would be no rules from now on.
"Send things to the warehouse first, and if the things inside are damaged, you can dispose of them yourself."
The two trembled and moved the boxes into the warehouse.
After putting all the wooden boxes into the warehouse, Wei Qingshan said goodbye.
Yuan Minzhi kept him again and again, Wei Qingshan refused again and again, saying that he wanted to go back to accompany his family for the New Year as soon as possible, but Yuan Minzhi no longer insisted on it, and politely sent the person away.
When he came back, he looked anxious: "Chan'er, why did the Wei family give us a New Year's gift?" There are so many things, and I don't know what they are? ”
"You'll find out when you see it." Chen stood beside Yuan Lingchen and didn't look surprised at all.
Yuan Minzhi looked at Shen again, and he also had an expression that everything was under control.
"You all know that you're hiding it from me?"
Chen gave him a "are you stupid" expression: "Didn't I tell you before, did some business with the Wei family?" It's time for them to divide the money......"
"Two thousand hectares of fields last year? ...... today."
"Since I am this year, I will be every year to come."
Yuan Minzhi suddenly had a feeling that the whole family counted him as the most useless.
He has worked the battlefield for so many years, and in the end, the money he earns is not as good as that of his family.
I thought that being the wife and son of the prince would be regarded as a glorious lintel, but today I have an awareness that I may have to eat soft rice for a lifetime.
Compared with his family's ability to collect money, his little money is really "meager".
The idea was taken to the extreme when it came to seeing all the boxes in the storeroom opened.
"Chan'er, this year's silver is a lot more than last year's, right?"
"Last year, because the fertility applied a few months earlier, the pepper harvest was limited, but this year there is enough fertilizer, which is different."
"Chan'er, what are you talking about? Pepper? Are you in the pepper business? Grow your own pepper? ”
Yuan Lingchen nodded.
Yuan Minzhi was almost suffocated: "How come I have never heard that pepper can be grown in our field?" Isn't that a spice from the Western Regions? ”
The countries of the Western Regions have fought more than once in order to obtain pepper.
This kind of thing, which is to be fought for in all countries, was actually planted by her daughter?
This doesn't seem realistic no matter how you think about it.
"Originally, no one planted it, but they couldn't plant it, but if there was a suitable method, they could grow it."
"So why did Webster work with us? Could it be this method......" He looked at Yuan Lingchen with some surprise.
But he only got Chen's angry eyes: "That's since our Chan'er is extremely smart, and she found a way for them." ”
"In this way, we can get five or six hundred thousand taels of gold every year?"
"If Merriam-Webster's pepper trees don't cut yields, it should be okay."
When Yuan Minzhi heard this, he was both happy and worried, happy that his wife and children no longer had to live a hard life, and worried that he could still maintain his position as the head of the family?
