Peony's words made Zhao Wenlu think for a long time, and he slowly felt that the flowers that Peony said, although they were joking, were very intriguing when they tasted it carefully.

Last time, he listened to Peony's words and purchased the goods of the workshop, which made Zhao Wenlu, who was originally worried, greatly improve his business, and even the goods that had not been sold before were also wiped out and sold out.

This time, the idea of annexing the workshop made Zhao Wenlu even more impressed with peony.

It feels like she is not as weak and innocent as she looks on the surface, and her inner potential is not limited to this at all.

can't help but make Zhao Wenlu more and more suspicious of Peony's experience, and full of curiosity about her past.

"This king also knows about Nalan Mansion, the wealth in Nalan Jin's hands is enough to fill most of the treasury, and because of their firm attitude, this king is not easy to take by force." Zhao Wenlu's eyes flickered.

"I'm afraid it's more than that, as far as I know, it's just business accounts, not counting the house deeds, title deeds, and land rents of Nalan Mansion, which alone are enough to fill the entire treasury." Peony counted with her fingers.

Zhao Wenlu looked at Peony and said that the head was the way, and even knew more about the current situation of Nalan Mansion than he had been in contact with for a long time, she wrung her eyebrows and stared at Peony, her eyes were full of questions.

Peony also seemed to notice Zhao Wenlu's gaze, and immediately realized that he would lose too much talk, and looked at Zhao Wenlu with a stiff smile.

"What's wrong, isn't it right what I said?" Peony tilted her head awkwardly.

"No, you're right." Zhao Wenlu pretended to be quiet, "You should have a few months in your belly, this king asked last time if there is anyone at home, you haven't told this king, so I can accompany you." ”

Zhao Wenlu tried to test the peony, and she pursed her mouth with an embarrassed face.

"Aren't you talking about business? Why is it going elsewhere, now is a good time, we have to strike while the iron is hot. Peony turned his back and tried to distract Zhao Wenlu as much as possible.

"Don't worry, the king will send someone to personally supervise these things. Recently, I have been busy with business and neglected you, and I haven't told this king where your family is? Zhao Wenlu pressed forward step by step and continued to ask.

Peony's face became more and more ugly, how could she tell Xiao Wenlu about her past, that past that was as unbearable as a nightmare.

Every time I think about it, it's like experiencing a torture in hell, and I can't even be comfortable in my dreams.

"I ...... Both parents are gone. Peony reluctantly squeezed out a smile.

"Even if you don't have parents, you should have other family members, this king is often not by your side, and you can rest assured to have them with you." Zhao Wenlu looked at the peony blankly.

"No need, the maids in the house take good care of me, and I'm not so delicate." Peony walked to the side as if she was avoiding Zhao Wenlu's question.

Zhao Wenlu looked at the maid next to him who always lowered her head and was silent.

Although the subordinates in the house are indeed well-trained, Peony repeatedly refused to talk about her family, which made Zhao Wenlu angry

The doubts in my heart are even more certain.

The desire to find out is even stronger.

When Zhao Wenlu stepped forward and was about to open his mouth to continue asking, he saw the guards rushing over.

"Master, Boss Fang, they're here." The guard looked serious.

Zhao Wenlu sighed anxiously, if he didn't come sooner or later, he would come quietly at this time.

"Let them wait." Zhao Wenlu shouted.

"One hundred thousand urgent!" The guard shook his head suggestively.

Zhao Wenlu looked at the back of the peony, sighed and wrinkled his eyebrows and glared at the guard, who lowered his head helplessly.

Peony was secretly glad in her heart, thanking the guards for appearing immediately, allowing her to withdraw from Zhao Wenlu's questioning.

"If you have something to do, you will be busy first, and the coming day will be long, and my family will talk about it later." Peony turned around and smiled to persuade Zhao Wenlu to leave.

"But you ......," Zhao Wenlu clenched his fists unwillingly.

Whether Peony is really a problem or not, every time I ask about her family, when it comes to her life experience, I am always interrupted by various reasons.

"Don't worry, it's okay to have a coat for the time being, you go and get busy first, don't let Boss Fang wait." Peony hinted to the guards and asked him to take Zhao Wenlu away.

Zhao Wenlu thought about it for a while, the lesser of two evils, and saw that he wanted peonies, so he had to follow the guards to see Boss Fang.

As soon as he left, Peony breathed a sigh of relief, maybe he was too nervous just now, and his stomach ached faintly, so he asked the maid to help him back to the house.

Boss Fang came to Zhao Wenlu and saw the next plan in his sight, without goods, the business could only stop operating.

"What to do now. Please also ask the third prince to show it. Boss Fang's face was full of anxiety.

"What to do, how do I know what to do, I usually let you pay more attention, now if something happens to this king, what is the use of asking you to do this!" Zhao Wenlu angrily threw the teacup in his hand to the ground.

"We didn't expect things to go so fast, everything is stretched thin at the moment, and we ask the prince to have an idea." Boss Fang saw that Zhao Wenlu was angry, so he hurriedly got up.

Zhao Wenlu was miserable, and only at this time did he know what was going on with his pig teammates, which couldn't help but remind him of Peony's words.

Non-toxic not husband.

At the moment, he didn't care about any identity oppression, and the live broadcast began to prepare for the acquisition of the industry in Nalan Mansion according to Peony's proposal.

"You ...... it first"

Zhao Wenlu instructed Boss Fang to use the royal family to win over those big merchants, annex those small merchants, and directly attack those merchants who did not cooperate.

In just a few days, some merchants were afraid of Zhao Wenlu's identity as the "third prince", so they rushed to take the initiative to cooperate with him before he came to the door.

Of course, there are also some wall grasses in the middle, which are not followed on either side, and they are not clearly perverted, and when the wind is strong over there, they will fall to that side.

Such a businessman can be described as a real profiteer, the most difficult to deal with, and he does not eat hard and soft.

There are also some people who have been doing business with Nalan Jin all year round, and there are also businessmen who have received the favor of Nalan Mansion

Home, because of gratitude to Dade, made it clear that he would not be in the same boat as Zhao Wenlu.

At first, Zhao Wenlu was a little unbearable about these people.

"Master, are you going to give them a chance to turn over? The so-called release of the tiger back to the mountain will cause endless troubles. Now you are merciful to them, and in the end it is we who are miserable. Peony viciously gave Zhao Wenlu a move.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Wenlu sighed.

Peony was silent, just throwing a ruthless look.

Soon, Zhao Wenlu went in and ordered that all the merchants who swore to follow Nalan Jin be investigated and dealt with on trumped-up charges, and all the goods were confiscated.

Let them fly eggs and fight them, and they won't get a penny.

Dongfang Yi couldn't bear to learn about this, and deliberately paid out of his own pocket to comfort these frustrated merchants.

"Thank you, owner, you're still thinking about us at this time." Merchants expressed their gratitude.

"Don't say that, it's Nalan Mansion who is ashamed of you." Dongfang Yi bowed deeply and apologized.

"Don't worry, no matter what I say, I won't be complicit with them."

"Yes, we're not going to give up."

Dongfang Yi was very moved by the affirmative attitude of the merchants, and it was really benevolent and righteous to be able to follow in the eventful autumn of Nalan Mansion.

But there are also some merchants who hold Dongfang Yi's money in their hands for their own survival, but they are shaken in their hearts and take the initiative to find Boss Fang and take them to see Zhao Wenlu.

"Before, we had no eyes, and please don't mind the third prince." The merchant saluted timidly.

"It's okay, I'm welcome to cooperate with me, and I'll order someone to return your shop immediately." Zhao Wenlu laughed happily.

The faces of those merchants who defected were embarrassed, unbearable, and forced to laugh stiffly.

The housekeeper heard about the workshop in the mansion, and he almost flew up with pride in his heart, and finally saw the defeat of Nalan Mansion in his lifetime.

There are still 3,000 nails left in the broken ship.

The housekeeper thought about fishing in troubled waters, and when Nalan Mansion was hit by Zhao Wenlu, he took advantage of the fire to rob and get a little oil and water from it.

"Butler, what should we do now, do we have to continue to rush the goods on hand?" The elderly worker asked.

"Stop first, and find an opportunity to sell the inventory to the third prince. Then go and keep an eye on those few undecided merchants and take the opportunity to woo them. The butler looked ahead excitedly.

With the housekeeper's "help", Nalan Mansion's business plummeted, and people came every day to report the defection of the merchants, and Nalan Jin poured a lot of effort into it.

Dongfang Yi felt that something was wrong, and even if these merchants were afraid of Zhao Wenlu, they wouldn't be so impatient.

So he set out to investigate, personally appeased the wavering merchants, and gave them some silver as their next plan.

"Owner, this ......" the merchant was a little embarrassed.

"You don't have any burden, these are your dividends over the years, I originally wanted to pay them together at the end of the year, and now I can send them in advance." east

Fang Yi comforted several merchants.

"We're ashamed." Merchants feel embarrassed.

"Survival is human instinct, and we don't blame any of you, no matter who you follow, we hope you can be safe." Dongfang Yi smiled and comforted everyone.

Everyone was grateful to Dade and felt that Nalan Mansion was righteous, and they all said that even if Zhao Wenlu's knife was on his neck, they would not bow to him.

Dongfang Yi was deeply gratified in his heart. He noticed that there was something strange in the house, so he sent Liu Neng to continue to keep an eye on the housekeeper and make a secret visit by himself.

Before the housekeeper could start to act, he was stared at by Dongfang Yi, as if he had clairvoyance, and the housekeeper knew what shit he was going to pull when he raised his ass.

After a few lucky gets, the housekeeper was caught red-handed by Dongfang Yi, but he didn't say it explicitly, but it made the housekeeper a little jealous.

"Alas, how did I do it recently, I ran into my uncle every time I shipped, was I too suspicious? I always feel like I've been topped by my uncle. The elderly worker muttered.

What they can find, the steward has discovered.

"You know what? Stop lately, don't walk around if you have nothing to do, lest you get caught, and when the time comes, don't think about letting me save you. The butler told his subordinates in a cold voice.
