Chapter 177: True Face
"You're right, Xiangdi has been defeated, we have to take care of this side first." Zhang Cun looked at the star fruit for a moment, and tried to persuade: "Brother Wang's personality must be trustworthy, let's manage this side well, send the silver over, and the matter over there will definitely be handled properly." ”
Carambola sighed: "That's it, I won't go." ”
The two took the carriage back again, and on the way, Zhang Cun and Carambola discussed: "The two hundred taels of silver taken out, let's let the little guy bring it to Brother Wang?" ”
Carambola shook her head: "The house has long been empty, and the only thing that can be taken out of the shop is these two hundred taels." If everything goes well here, it's fine, but now it's also stormy, where do you dare to move? ”
"But it's ...... Brother Wang's side."
"The shopkeeper Wang has a rich family background, and he treats you like a brother, so naturally he will not embarrass you on this bit of silver." Carambola proposed: "You let the shopkeeper Wang cushion some first, deal with the matter, and wait for us to ease up, and pay him back with interest." ”
After a pause, the star fruit said again: "If he really refuses to pad, let him come back to run his own cloth village first." If we want money, we really can't get it here, so we don't need to do anything about it, and we will investigate and do it according to the law. If you really eat someone to death, I will give him my life. ”
"Carambola ......"
"Brother-in-law!" Star fruit did not give an inch, and his attitude was resolute: "This can only be the case, if not, it is better for us to go to Xiangdi, what do you care about here?" ”
Zhang Cun slapped his leg in annoyance, but there was nothing he could do.
Before Zhang Cun could figure out the collective unsubscription of large households, other pickle shops in the same city began to sell at reduced prices again.
Star fruit went to buy it and tasted it in person: it tasted good, but the price was one percent lower than the cost. This is obviously to suppress the Yang family.
"What should we do? To drop or not to fall? A room of people looked at Zhang Cun and star fruit, waiting for them to come up with an idea.
"Drop!" Zhang Cun clapped the board: "There are no more customers these days, and if you don't drop it, you won't be able to sell one or two dishes." ”
But the star fruit said, "It can't be lowered!" Our family has a thin foundation, and we will not be able to support it sooner or later if we continue to lose money. When the loss is over, it will be difficult to turn over. ”
"Wouldn't it be a loss if the price was not reduced? Rent, wages, daily expenses, which is not silver? If there is no input, you will rely on the two hundred taels of silver in your hand, and sooner or later it will be lost. ”
Zhang Cun also made sense, and the star fruit had no idea in his heart, so he just looked at Yang Laosan at the top to see what he meant.
"Listen to Zhang Cun, he has always been taking care of the shop, and he should be more experienced."
As a result, the Yang family's pickle shop also began to reduce the price, which was one percent lower than the cost.
Who knows that he will follow here, and that side will drop again: it is two percent lower than the cost, can you follow again?
Zhang Cun was so angry that he threw the teacup: "If they come like this, can they make money?" ”
Star fruit was not angry: "Brother-in-law go and find out who the owner behind these shops is, if you can make an appointment to talk to Haosheng, it would be the best." ”
She herself was not idle, and went to hand over the greeting post to the little lady of the Guo family first.
Like last time, Miss Guo didn't take Qiao, and as soon as the time came, she appeared elegantly in front of the star fruit. It's just that the girl next to her has changed, and she is no longer the chubby and honest girl, but has become a second girl.
"It's the moon season!" Miss Guo saw Carambola's eyes glancing at her maid, so she generously introduced: "I am still in the same village as my sister, maybe you have known each other before?" ”
Carambola smiled at Erya, and before she could speak, she heard Erya say to Guo Miao: "Miss said that she was joking, how can you know a noble person like Dr. Yang when a slave is born like this?" ”
I still hate myself!
Carambola sighed in her heart, but she didn't answer Erya's words. The grievances and misunderstandings between them cannot be relieved in one or two sentences. Besides, she is looking for Guo Miao today, and it is not me.
Carambola invited Guo Miao to sit down, and reached out to pour her tea, but Erya had already snatched it. "Serving Miss is a slave's business, so it's better not to rob Doctor Yang." ”
"You're too careful." The star fruit gave herself a full glass, and then sipped it casually.
Guo Miao had long known what had happened to the Yang family, and she also knew what was going on with star fruit coming out of her. But she didn't expect star fruit to be so calm.
It's not interesting to drag, she went straight to the point: "The pickle shops in the city that are now reducing their prices, except for your Yang family, are all our Guo family." ”
Star fruit thought that it would definitely take a lot of effort to set it out, but I didn't expect Guo Miao to be so honest.
"Then what does the Guo family want? Do you want my Yang family to lose? ”
Guo Miao waved her hand to let Erya go out, and waited for half a cup of tea to be elegantly sipped before continuing: "Didn't the Guo family tell Sister Yang what the Guo family wanted?" ”
"Take refuge in the Guo family?"
"It would be more accurate to say that it would be to take refuge in the prince." Guo Miao smiled lightly, still elegant and easy-going, and even the tone was as gentle and delicate as ever: "Follow Master Qin, find out the guilt of the prefect of Shuzhou, follow the prefect of Shuzhou, and take out the details of the three princes, what we want is as simple as that." ”
With a shake of the hand holding the tea cup, the tea spilled out.
"This scares Sister Yang? This is just the beginning, and the rest of the excitement has not yet begun. Guo Miao smiled lightly, wiped off the spilled water stains with a handkerchief for the star fruit, and said: "The title deed of the Liumian Mountain has been placed in the Guo family's study, and the life lawsuit on the other side of Xiangdi can be started." All of this is all that you need to say, Sister Yang. ”
"Didn't you say before that you don't fight or fight, and you are not worthy of serving the prince?"
"Wasn't that before? Now the situation has changed, and the lives of all of you Yang family are hanging in the air. Let's not make it clear again, I'm afraid that we will lose my sister's life. ”
Star fruit had fire in her heart, but she pressed it hard. She drank tea one after another, thinking of countermeasures non-stop.
Guo Miao was not in a hurry, accompanied the star fruit to drink one by one, and occasionally handed her plums and refreshments, which was as comfortable and considerate as an old friend over the years.
"I'll think about it again, Miss Guo should go back first."
Carambola is very chaotic in her heart, she doesn't understand business, let alone officialdom. This suddenly made a move with the Guo family, and she was a little powerless.
Guo Miao didn't embarrass her, and said with a smile: "That sister has to hurry up, the Yang family shop is afraid that it won't be able to survive in a few days." There is also a lawsuit on the Hunan side, and the fight will naturally implicate this side. Oh yes, and the Six Faces Mountain. It is said that the third prince has guaranteed your character in front of the saint, and this has not been planted before the mountain was lost, and the prince must have something to say in front of His Majesty. ”
Star fruit's face turned uncontrollably pale, which made Guo Miao smile again: "Sister Yang doesn't have to worry, isn't everything still going around?" ”
After she finished speaking, she turned around to leave, but star fruit suddenly stopped her: "Guo Miao, you must have a bottom line in life!" ”
Guo Miao smiled brighter and brighter: "If there is no bottom line, where can my sister shout in front of me?" You weigh your own catties and taels first, and think about whether you can compete with a few of you? By the way, the An family and the Zhou family are still waiting for you to lose.
If you insist on protecting Master Qin, then you have to exchange your own net worth and life. When the time comes, those two families will step on your Yang family and the Qiao family, won't it be like stepping on one or two ants? ”
Guo Miao turned around elegantly, walked away, and when she reached the door, she turned around and smiled: "Come to me again, and ask my sister to get something useful." If someone goes to jail, you will be safe. ”
"Despicable!"
"Thank you, sister, for the compliment!"
Guo Miao left, and the star fruit was so angry that she broke two teacups.
There was no progress on her side, and Zhang Cun's side also returned in vain.
The shopkeepers of several shops all went to Zhang Cun's dinner, but after eating and drinking, they only had one sentence: "We are different from the shopkeeper Zhang, you are the owner yourself, and you want the shop to be as it is." But we all work for people, and we will act how the owner tells us to act. ”
"And who is your owner? I see if there is something offended, so I can come to the door to ask him to ask for his noble hand. ”
"It's hard to say, it's a rich man in Hunan who came forward. can chase it up again, it seems to be the boss of the capital again. We don't know exactly who the owner is. ”
"Xiangdi?"
Zhang Cun asked, and the shopkeeper changed his face when he spoke before, and he quickly changed his words: "What Xiangdi?" I'm talking about Shuzhou, shopkeeper Zhang, you heard it wrong. ”
He could hear it clearly, how could he hear it wrong?
Thinking of the scene when he and Brother Wang went to Hunan to check, Zhang Cun's brows furrowed: there are few pickle shops there, and occasionally there is one, and the pickles are very unpalatable. Because of this, he was determined to go to Xiangdi to open a shop.
But when they were the proprietors behind these pickle shops, were they from Xiangdi? Since he is from Xiangdi, how can he let go of such a good opportunity in Xiangdi? Just look at the pickles in these shops, although the taste is worse than the Yang family's, it is not unpalatable, and compared with the ones they eat in Hunan Land, it is simply a delicacy.
Fooled!
Zhang Cun slapped himself in the face and regretted his mistakes: "How good should it be to listen to Yuezhang's words at that time?" Now that he has fallen into the trap of others, he has suffered a loss, not to mention that he has suffered a loss, and he has also caused Brother Wang to suffer. ”
After listening to Zhang Cun's words, the star fruit only said lightly: "I'm afraid that your brother Wang won't be clean!" ”
Zhang Cun immediately became angry: "Star fruit, you can speak after you think about it." Brother Wang is the one who risked his life to save my life, if you dare to slander him, I am not done with you. ”
Who is in the mood to quarrel at this juncture? Carambola glanced at him and said lightly: "You yourself think about what happened, if you are still not convinced, then wait and see." It can't be fake, there will always be a day when the truth will come out. ”
A few days later, the Yang family fell into the ice valley. No matter what promotion ideas star fruit came up with, it didn't work.
What's even worse is that a long-term worker in the workshop stole a bowl of pickled vegetables and then fell ill. Carambola went to see it in person, and she was really unconscious and dying.
At the same time, officials also came to Xiangdi: they wanted to investigate the murder of the pickled vegetables of the Yang family in Xiangdi. The people who were poisoned by eating pickles died, and the king's treasurer confessed that the pickles were poisonous, and he had returned as witnesses and officials.
After the news came, Ye was so anxious that he fainted, and Zhang Cun and Yang Laosan were directly arrested and put in prison.
Carambola stood in place in a daze, her mind was full of Guo Miao's laughter, and she said: "Sister Yang, remember to take something useful next time, some people are in prison, and your Yang family will be completely safe." ”
Some people are talking about Master Qin!
