Yao Yue died, Han Dongcheng was imprisoned, and the emperor deprived the Yao family and the Han family of their status as imperial merchants, because Han Dongcheng and Jiang Qiming had a good relationship before, and some people in the clan were married, so Jiang Qiming not only had to deal with business matters, but also appeased the clansmen, so that he would not be involved.

After being busy for so many days, Jiang Qiming finally had free time, so he prepared a gift early in the morning and came to the door to thank him in person.

There are many passers-by downstairs, and it is not convenient to speak, so Xiaoman invited Jiang Qiming upstairs to speak, "Lord Jiang, I didn't expect you to come in person, I'm really ashamed." ”

Jiang Qiming put down the teacup and smiled softly, "Thanks to you this time, I heard Xiuyuan say that the person who chased and killed you before was also sent by Yao Yue, so I have to apologize to you even more, this is a grudge between us, I didn't want it but it involved you." ”

Su Xiaoman waved his hand, "It's okay, this has nothing to do with Master Jiang." ”

"Shopkeeper Su is polite." Jiang Qiming pursed his lips, and immediately took out a piece of paper from his arms, "The business of the Yao and Han families cannot continue because of this, the emperor means to let me bear it all my might, but you have also seen the shopkeeper Su, I am a sick man, where can I take care of the affairs of the three families, so I came this time, first, to apologize, and second, to ......"

Speaking of this, Jiang Qiming deliberately stopped, pushed the piece of paper he took out from his arms before in front of Su Xiaoman, and smiled faintly at her.

Su Xiaoman subconsciously lowered his head and hurriedly glanced at the contents of the paper.

But just this glance made Su Xiaoman speechless in shock.

Jiang Qiming actually wanted to hand over the business of Yao and Han to her!

She hurriedly pushed the piece of paper back, and hurriedly shook her head to refuse, "Master Jiang, this is absolutely impossible, I ...... I'm a female streamer, how... How can you take on such a big responsibility? There are a lot of talented people in Shangjing, so you'd better look for something else-"

"Shopkeeper Su." Jiang Qiming interrupted her words, his eyes were serious: "This is a decision I made after thinking about it for a long time, you don't have to be modest, I believe that you can definitely do it." ”

Su Xiaoman's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

She had no choice but to turn her eyes to Xia Wanrou for help, but the other party secretly shook her head, signaling that she couldn't interfere in this matter, Xiao Man was helpless, so she had to look at Qin Chun again, but the other party was very timid, just seeing Jiang Qiming was already cramped, how could she talk about helping herself?

No, she had to hang her head and figure it out for herself.

Seeing this, Jiang Qiming said earnestly: "Shopkeeper Su, your shop has developed so fast in a short period of time, and your embroidery skills are outstanding, winning the top spot in this year's competition, and you are sincere, and you do not hesitate to risk being hunted down to remind me that I was plotted." I haven't known you for a long time, but through these things, I'm sure you can take over these things. ”

The other party has said this, and Su Xiaoman doesn't know what to say.

Although she is a girl who grew up in the countryside, she also understands the truth of the tree, and now Lu Li is named the general of the town, if she becomes an imperial merchant again, it will inevitably attract the envy of everyone, if it is .....

Suddenly, Su Xiaoman heard something, and she hurriedly asked, "Lord Jiang, did the emperor know that you made such a decision?" ”

The imperial merchants served the imperial palace, and it was naturally up to the emperor to decide.

"I haven't told the emperor about this yet, but on the day of the competition, the emperor praised the embroidery of Shopkeeper Su a few words, which is enough to show that the emperor also recognizes your ability." Jiang Qiming said confidently.

Su Xiaoman smiled suddenly, "Lord Jiang, my husband is the general of Zhenguo, do you think that the Imperial Chamber of Commerce will make me an imperial businessman?" ”

The emperor was already taboo about Lu Li, and now if he becomes an imperial businessman with a lot of money, then the emperor will inevitably be jealous, and when the time comes, other dignitaries and dignitaries in Shangjing will definitely think of the law to find their own fork, and the emperor, who is already taboo about his own family, will believe in himself and Lu Li?

What Lu Li wants to live is an ordinary life, and this time he has to lead the troops to the expedition, Xiaoman believes that if Lu Li is also there, he will definitely think the same as himself.

"Shopkeeper Su, what do you mean, do you agree?" Jiang Qiming frowned.

Su Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled, "Lord Jiang, it's difficult for me to take on this heavy responsibility, and I'm pregnant now, and the affairs of the store are still messed up and can't be handled well, how can I help the emperor do things?" Master Jiang, I appreciate your kindness. ”

After speaking, she got up and bowed, making up her mind to refuse Jiang Qiming's offer.

The matter has come to this point, Jiang Qiming has no choice, and he really hasn't told the emperor about it, now hearing Xiaoman say this, he can't help but hesitate, so Jiang Qiming also went down this step, "Okay, but if Shopkeeper Su needs help in the future, he can come to Jiang." ”

"No need to do it in the future, I have one thing to ask Master Jiang for help right now." Saying that, Su Xiaoman walked to the window, put down the originally propped up window, and ordered someone to close the door, and then walked to the table and told the grievances between Manrou Ready-to-wear Workshop and Yaliuge as they were.

During this period, she also brought out Qin Chun's grievances, so that Jiang Qiming was even more angry.

At the same time, in the westernmost store on this street, Shopkeeper Wang looked at Yaliuge's recent dwindling orders, and was so angry that he kept slapping the table, "What's going on?!" How do you all do things?! It's just a Qin Chun who walked, why is the flow of this store so bad! ”

The men in the shop all trembled and lowered their heads and did not dare to speak, and none of them responded to the words of the shopkeeper Wang.

This couldn't help but make him more angry, the shopkeeper Wang turned around to get the account book, and was about to scold him one by one, when he suddenly glanced at a familiar guy standing at the door, looking at him with a smile.

The shopkeeper changed his face when he boarded, and he was very flattering, "Little brother, are you here?" ”

The little guy hooked his lips and smiled, "Shopkeeper Wang, you haven't forgotten what day it is, have you?" ”

"I forgot everything, I can't forget this, you wait, I'll go to the back and get something and go with you." The shopkeeper smiled flatteringly, and the folds in the corners of his eyes could trap flies.

The guys in the store finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the shopkeeper Wang follow the little brother away.

The shopkeeper Wang took the store's income this month, followed behind the little brother, and asked cautiously, "Little brother, can I ask you about something?" ”

"Say."

The shopkeeper smiled hehehe, then took out a medium-sized silver ingot from his bosom, and Baba stepped forward and stuffed the silver ingot into the little girl's arms, and then smiled at him.

After all, this little guy is a person next to Chen Hu, even if he wants to benefit in his heart, he has to pretend to be righteous on the surface: "What do you mean by this?" Don't forget, don't forget, today is the day to hand over the silver to the master, if the master finds out that you have less money, then you ......."

"Little brother, look at what you said." The shopkeeper Wang said greasy and disgusted: "This is my filial piety to my little brother, you take a lot of care of me on weekdays, this is a matter of course, you must not be polite." ”

In this way, the little guy hooked the corners of his lips and stuffed the silver in his arms into it with a smile, and then said in a low voice: "Chen Gongzi just got a beautiful and lively exotic girl recently, and his heart is comfortable, don't be afraid, if there is anything to say now, our son-in-law will definitely not blame you." ”

Shopkeeper Wang smiled, and finally put down a big stone in his heart, "That's good, that's good." ”

While talking, the two also arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, but naturally the two of them couldn't go through the main gate. The little servant took the shopkeeper Wang around the main entrance, entered through the corner gate on the west side, and walked a long way in a twist and turn, and then arrived at the place where Chen Hu lives now.

This is the eldest princess's mansion, the front is naturally where the princess and the concubine live, this Chen Hu originally had his own mansion, but he was taken back by the emperor because he made a mistake, so now he can only live in a small mansion in the northeast corner of the eldest princess's mansion.

This house is very quiet, and there is a separate door to enter and exit, which is not bound by the eldest princess's mansion, which is more convenient for Chen Hu to do evil.

The little servant took the shopkeeper Wang to Chen Hu's bedroom, and before the little servant could speak, there was a sound of laughter between men and women in the bedroom, and occasionally there were a few women's moans, and the shopkeeper of the king blushed when he landed.

The little guy was used to hearing it, but he didn't think anything of it, he knocked on the door a few times, and called: "Master, the king of Yaliu Pavilion has handed over the silver." ”

"Got it, let him wait for me in the main hall."

The shopkeeper didn't dare to stay for a moment, and hurriedly followed the little guy to the main hall, but he didn't dare to sit, and waited for half an hour before Chen Hu came in disheveled clothes.

Chen Hu is in his twenties, has no wife or concubine at home, because of perennial lewdness, his face is vain, and he walks lightly. He was only wearing obscene trousers, a translucent coat on the outside, and the red marks on his chest and neck were very conspicuous.

According to the rules, he handed over this month's income silver and account book, where did Chen Hu understand, so he only glanced at it and threw the account book aside, leaned lazily on the chair and asked: "This month's income is a lot, continue next month, don't let me down, shopkeeper Wang, do you know?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the shopkeeper Wang knelt down with a puff and kept kowtowing: "Gongzi Chen, I'm ...... Next month, I'm afraid it won't be like this month. ”

"What do you mean?"

The shopkeeper Wang knelt tremblingly, his head hit the ground, and his voice trembled: "It's just because, a few days ago, the shopkeeper of the Manrou Garment Workshop poached the best embroidery girl in our family.

Before he finished speaking, Chen Hu waved his hand impatiently, "Hey, I should be a big deal, but I'm just an embroiderer, just looking for one." ”

"Chen Gongzi, the embroidery lady has good craftsmanship, many guests came to her before, and now she was suddenly snatched away by the Manrou Garment Workshop, I am afraid that no one will come to our store to buy things in the future, so that the silver handed over every month will be at least half less!"
