"Sort of."

Seeing that his expression was a little complicated, Zhang Meishou said: "Just now I saw the person next to the shopkeeper Qiu, who is very familiar, like a person in the Yun family's firm - shopkeeper Qiu has business dealings with the Yun family this time?" ”

The man with a short figure, she had seen it once outside, and the second cousin said that that person was Yunqu's right-hand man.

According to Qinglie's investigation, it was this person who was responsible for delivering news to Nan Yu's uncle.

Because of this, she only vaguely revealed her identity to the shopkeeper Qiu - in the end, it can be regarded as an old acquaintance, and her father was also taken care of by the other party when he was the county magistrate in Gui'an County, and at this time, out of thoughtful consideration, she asked this question.

"It's not a business dealing, but the Yun family intends to ask me to be the big shopkeeper of the Huzhou branch." Shopkeeper Qiu didn't hide it from her, and said truthfully: "I've been persuading her openly and secretly for several years...... I didn't want to agree at first, but in the past few years, near the dozen or so shops under my command, there have been Yun's branches opening one after another, although it will not rob all the business, but in the end it is better to be from the prospect. ”

Even if he has a bit of a reputation in Huzhou because of the events of that year, but when it comes to business means and strength, he is not the opponent of a big business like the Yun family, especially after years of accumulation.

And if it was really replaced by someone else, I am afraid that it would have been squeezed out by the Yun family's firm.

In the past few years, he has watched as many small businesses in Huzhou have either been annexed or simply disappeared under the pressure of the Yun firm.

At first, he was full of unconvinced, but he also made up his mind not to compromise - although he was not as angry as he was from the foreground, it was not a problem to survive.

But the shopkeepers under him gradually followed the persuasion.

It's not as good as him being alone, those are people who have to support their families. After following him for many years and going through many things, it is not easy to get to where it is today......

What's more, the business of the shop is okay now, relying on nothing more than his local reputation and the recognition of the people. If he is no longer there one day, will these shops still be able to open?

People always have to think about future generations.

He hasn't started a family again in these years, and many of the relatives of those shopkeepers are also his relatives.

There are elderly people suffering from stubborn diseases, and they are indispensable to be nourished with medicinal supplements all year round.

There are also two children with good talents who want to go to the capital to study, and ask a better gentleman to guide them.

These are all places where silver is needed.

He said all these together.

"I haven't spoken these things yet." Shopkeeper Qiu sighed with a smile and said, "But think about it, what they said is not unreasonable...... After all, it's just a matter of changing the signboard, and the shop is still run by us. And since I have this idea, I came this time to simply want to fight for more benefits on their behalf with the Yun Clan. ”

Zhang Meishou nodded clearly.

So that's what happened.

The Yun family's move is just an ordinary method. On the mall, it's all for the sake of profit, there's nothing to say.

"I think what the Yun clan values should be your own local reputation in Huzhou."

The so-called dozen or so shops, no matter whether they are prosperous or not, are nothing to the Yun family's business.

Shopkeeper Qiu sighed noncommittally.

Naturally, he knew that.

"But in my opinion, I don't agree with Shopkeeper Qiu to join the Yun family." The girl's words were direct: "The Yun family's business name is not a good place to go. ”

Shopkeeper Qiu couldn't help but be stunned.

"I don't know why Miss Zhang said this?"

"If Shopkeeper Qiu believes me, he might as well find another way. If the Yun clan is really pressing step by step, Shopkeeper Qiu can go to the Song family's firm, and my aunt and uncle will never treat Shopkeeper Qiu and your people badly-

As for the reason why I just said that the Yun family is not a good place to go, it is not good to tell it bluntly now, and I hope that the shopkeeper Qiu will not be surprised. ”

"Miss Zhang's words are serious, if Miss Zhang doesn't say it, there will be difficulties. This reminder is also a good intention. ”

If today's remarks were changed to other people, he would probably think that the other party was speaking ill of people behind his back, and deliberately led him to join the Song family's firm. But when he said it through the mouth of the girl in front of him, it made him feel completely different.

Miss Zhang will not say anything without evidence, and she disdains to play such shallow means.

After eating half a cup of tea, Zhang Meishou left his seat and got up.

"My mother is still waiting, and I won't talk to Shopkeeper Qiu for a long time today. When I saw it this time, I also hoped that the shopkeeper Qiu would keep it a secret for me. ”

"It's nature."

Shopkeeper Qiu nodded and immediately got up, arched his hand and said: "Miss Zhang is far away in the capital, and she will live in the palace for a long time in the future, I am afraid it will not be easy to see, and I am willing to take care of herself." ”

In his eyes, Miss Zhang's election as the crown princess is also a blessing for Dajing.

Zhang Meishou thanked him and said with a smile: "I also wish the shopkeeper Qiu all the best." ”

"Then I'll borrow Miss Zhang's auspicious words."

The two walked out together, and the shopkeeper Qiu smiled and said: "Speaking of which, Qiu often goes to the fairy temple to offer incense, and the incense in the temple has been very prosperous over the years. ”

"Others believed it, but Shopkeeper Qiu also believed it?" Zhang Meishou smiled and said casually: "The name of this fairy, whether it is true or false, Shopkeeper Qiu should be clear." ”

In her cognition, this shopkeeper Qiu is a person who is very reasonable.

"Qiu is naturally clear."

The shopkeeper Qiu was meticulous in his tone: "The one who can save people is the fairy." ”

The miracles were fake, but the lives of the countless refugees saved were alive.

There is this matter, Miss Zhang is a fairy in his eyes, and it is not easy for anyone to deny it, including Miss Zhang herself.

……

In the Yun family, in the outer study, the big proprietor of the Yun family is sitting behind the bookcase, writing a letter.

"Bang bang—"

The door of the study was knocked twice from the outside, and Yun Qu said "come in" without raising his head.

The middle-aged man with a short figure and a name named Yun Qi pushed the door in.

Yun Qu didn't speak, he still wrote the letter intently, and Yun Qi waited quietly on the side until Yun Qu put the pen down.

"There's a clue." Yunqu took a sip of tea and asked.

And although it was a question, there seemed to be no expectation in his tone.

It's been a few days since I looked into it.

"Back to the east, there is no clue yet...... Yun Qi said in a low voice: "But Song Jinniang's poison seems to have really been solved." ”

"Do you still need to say this, the whole city of Suzhou knows that she is well." There was no joy or anger in Yunqu's tone, "The three living people were just lost, and they couldn't even find the slightest clue, the Song family did too much clean in this matter-it was actually a means to underestimate them in the past." ”

The "gentleman" sent by Lord Gu, a retinue, and the people he secretly sent to protect the other party, all seemed to have disappeared out of thin air in just half a day.

"The identities of these people are invisible, clean or unclean, there is no difference...... I'm afraid that they will hide people and use them for another ......" Yun Qi said cryptically.

Yun Qu sneered.
