Chapter 108: Good Intentions
Hu Xing and the others hurriedly retreated.
Pei Yan raised his hand and motioned for Yu Wen and the others to sit down and talk.
Yu Wen sat down a little nervously, and Ah Ming helped them take the door and walked out.
"What did the third master do to leave us?" Yu Wen asked confusedly.
Pei Yan paused as if he was clearing his thoughts, and said: "The fourth master of the Song family came to me just now, oh, it is the head of the Song family, and the fourth master of their family is the fourth master of the third room, he doesn't know where to know about Yutu, and he also wants to get a piece of the pie, and he also wants to cooperate with our Pei family." As you know, my father just died, and my brothers and I have no intention of doing this business. But the fourth master of the Song family has a bit of a relationship with our family - his mother and my mother are aunts and cousins, and his mother is an older sister, nearly 20 years older than my mother. I thought, if your family wants to take advantage of this opportunity to participate in it, it is better to partner with the Song family. I just wanted to ask you what you mean. I'm also good at arranging. ”
When Yu Wen heard this, he was overjoyed.
Pei Yan didn't mention this matter before, which shows that he is not optimistic about their family's participation in such a business, and then he gave them a detailed explanation of the ability background of the people participating in the auction, and also faintly warned them that the maritime business is very profitable and risky, and it is not something that people like them can touch. But now, he has made a middleman to connect their family and the Song family, which shows that they think it is possible for the two of them to cooperate. Either the Pei family has the face and confidence to protect the interests of their Yu family in front of the Song family, or the Song family is loyal and honest and trustworthy.
Whether it is the former or the latter, their family relies on the protection of the Pei family.
Yu Wen is very grateful for this.
So should you seize this opportunity?
Yu Wen habitually looked at Yu Tang.
Yu Tang's heart was in a mess.
She does have this thought, and wants to keep a map, so that if their family has the opportunity in the future, they can become shareholders in the maritime business. But she never wanted to cooperate with someone like the Tao family in Guangzhou.
There is a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, the weak party has no right to speak, the cooperation is unequal, and it is easy to be swallowed by others.
Her first choice was the Jiang family.
It's the Jiang family that came out of Jiang Ling.
According to the memories of her previous life, their family has not yet developed, but from the things that happened in her previous life, it seems that their family has this ability.
When you know the cold, it is the best cooperation.
But at this time, Yu Tang had to admit that Pei Yan's proposal was like putting a bowl of pork belly in front of their house, which made them salivate.
Fortunately, she quickly calmed down under her father's gaze.
Being seduced and deceived half-heartedly will not lead to good results.
Yu Tang couldn't help coughing lightly, and said softly: "Third master, thank you for supporting our family." But in the end, our family is just a small family, and this kind of business is not something we can control, nor can we think about it. I think it's better to forget about it. ”
Pei Yan's enthusiasm was like being drenched in ice water for three or nine days, and his face suddenly felt a little unbearable.
Didn't she want to get rich?
With such a good opportunity, he rarely relented, thinking that it was not easy for her to be a girl, and she ended up in such a situation.
"Whatever you want!" Pei Yan was cold, and even the atmosphere became stagnant, "I just think that if you cooperate with the Song family, for the sake of our Pei family, they won't do anything in private." Since you have no intention, I have not mentioned it. With that, he picked up the tea bowl.
That's what it means to send off a guest.
Yuwen felt very embarrassed.
Pei Yan's kindness can be experienced by anyone, but he didn't expect Yu Tang to refuse.
Of course, this decision was indeed discussed by them a long time ago, but nothing is set in stone.
Yu Tang also didn't give Pei Yan face.
Yu Wen glared at his daughter, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, wanting to overturn Yu Tang's decision, no matter what, he had to buy Pei Yan's face, not to mention that Pei Yan was also for the good of their family.
Yu Tang thought that Pei Yan might be a little embarrassed before he said this, but he didn't expect Pei Yan to turn his face when he said it, and her father was even more assertive, seeing that Pei Yan was unhappy, he immediately thought about buying Pei Yan's favor, and he didn't want to think about what kind of situation this favor would put their Yu family in.
"Third Master!" She hurriedly spoke before Yu Wen, "A lot of things have happened in our family in the past six months, if it weren't for your help, let alone safe and sound, or my mother's illness, it would have put us in trouble." Our Yu family can have today, all thanks to you. What you just mentioned is all for the good of our family. It's just that our family's family motto has always been like this, and it is better to rely on heaven and earth than on yourself. The Song family is one of the largest families in Suzhou, and our family has never done any business except for a lacquerware shop. Even if the Song family can bring our family, it will be for your sake and the face of the Pei family. Others don't know, but we ourselves know how many bowls of rice we can eat. It's easy to do business with the Song family, but we can't just take a map to join us? Even if you only take a map to join the house, how to join the house? How many shares? Group or not to form a fleet? How many boats are better to go to sea at a time? How many people are on each boat? What to ship? Where to stop? Our family doesn't understand any of this. Do you still have to ask you one by one? So what can we do to help the Song family? What are the benefits of the Song family partnering with us? If the interests are unequal for a long time, why should we always cooperate with others? What's the difference between that and relying on you? ”
Now that their family has taken out the map and sold it, the Song family can't afford to pay for the auction, so why bother to cooperate with their Yu family for a map that can be solved with money?
Speaking of which, it still depends on Pei Yan's face.
This favor doesn't have to be repaid by Pei Yan.
Even if Pei Yan felt that it didn't matter, their family couldn't accept it like this.
Yu Wen and Yu Yuan nodded again and again when they listened, and the little wavering just now disappeared at this time.
Pei Yan still felt unhappy.
Speaking of which, it sounds reasonable, but in the end, it is not that he is rejected.
"As you please!" Pei Yan raised the tea bowl in his hand again.
Yu Tang didn't expect Pei Yan's temperament to be so big, she couldn't let him go no matter what she said.
If Pei Yan had ill intentions, it would be fine, but he was kind-hearted, Yu Tang knew that his decision was the most correct and beneficial choice for the Yu family, but he still felt very guilty about Pei Yan in his heart.
Pei Yan has an arrogant temperament and doesn't care much about housework, he rarely cares about his affairs, but she refused, and she is indeed too ignorant.
Yu Tang wanted to make him feel better, so he simply pretended not to see him carry the tea bowl, took a few steps forward, and said in a low voice: "Third master, we must do business well after we go back, and strive to receive your reward one day." ”
Pei Yan saw her head down, her smooth forehead was as warm as jade, her long eyelashes were motionless, resting on her eyelids like phoenix feathers, looking obedient and tame, her heart softened, and she felt that the nameless fire gradually dissipated a little.
I also know that his reward is not something that anyone can receive, and it can be regarded as self-aware!
"Forget it!" He heard his own tone faintly said, "It's also that I didn't think it through, so this matter is settled." ”
Yu Tang sighed secretly.
Finally coaxed this ancestor a little better.
Do you want to keep coaxing?
She also wanted to know why Pei Yan planted sea buckthorn in their family's mountains and forests in her previous life?
Yu Tang's mouth is faster than his brain.
She heard herself say respectfully: "No matter what, I still have to thank the third master." If the third master doesn't dislike it, my mother made some Qingtuan at home a few days ago, and I asked Manager Hu to bring some for the third master to taste. There is nothing else in our family that can get our hands on, so this ordinary food is made earlier than others, so that the third master can try it. ”
It stands to reason that it will take another month or two for the Youth League to start working on it. But this year, Chen's health is better, and his interest is also high, so he made some Youth League in advance, not much, but he is better than good craftsmanship, and he has become a food that can be used by others for more than a month.
Pei Yan listened to the depression in his heart and dispersed a little.
He doesn't like to eat Qingtuan so much, but he is guarding filial piety, and he should eat these during the filial piety period, but many people don't know what's going on, and always forget that he is guarding filial piety, either inviting him to drink or inviting him to enjoy the flowers, only the things sent by the Yu family are reliable.
Those people seemed to have forgotten that his father had passed away not long ago.
The most uncomfortable thing for him was that many of these people had received his father's favor.
It can be seen that the so-called "murder and arson of gold belts, road and bridge construction without corpses" is reasonable.
Pei Yan snorted coldly in his heart, but his voice softened a little: "Don't be so polite!" Then thank you Mrs. Yu for me. ”
That's what it means to take.
Yu Tang was overjoyed and said busily: "If you like it, it's fine." Thinking that he came in a hurry, I didn't know how the meeting with the Song family was, and it was not good to delay his business, so I bent his knees and blessed, and said, "Then we will leave first." After the auction is over, come and disturb the third master. ”
Master Song Si was really temporarily placed in the guest room by him, and there was a banquet to entertain him later, and Pei Yan couldn't stay here for a long time. He was very satisfied with Yu Tang's understanding of advance and retreat, and simply confessed two more sentences: "In the past few days, the heads of all families will come to Ancheng, and it is best not to go out when you are fine, so as not to be seen by others and cause trouble." ”
Are you afraid that someone will rob it before the auction if someone knows that the map is their family?
Those are all people they can't afford to mess with.
Yu Yuan's face turned pale.
Pei Yan glanced at him and said, "You don't have to worry too much, I have already ordered it to go down, all the people who come to Ancheng will restrict their travel before the auction, and your family has also sent someone to keep an eye on it secretly." I'm afraid of ......."
Yu Tang immediately said: "Yes, yes." I'm afraid of anything. Our family will not run around before the auction. You can rest assured. ”
Pei Yan's face returned to his original cold arrogance.
Yu Tang's hanging heart also fell to the ground completely.
