It wasn't until he came out of the East Palace later that the attendants beside him stepped forward and whispered a few words to him.

"My lord, it is said that the concubine who escaped was precisely because Xu Zhizhang was not good at intercourse, so she had to find a wild man to collect the money and escape. Therefore, there should be no other internal reason for this matter, it is purely that Xu Zhizhang wants to find someone to kill people to cover up his ugly deeds......"

As a man who is about to turn over fifty but can still be strong, Guo Zuyi suddenly felt a subtle and rare sympathy for Xu Zhizhang in his heart, and then looked at him with a little inadvertent relief and pity - after all, when this kind of thing happens, there must be only one thought in anyone's heart at this time, that is, to kill and eradicate the roots!

That's it, Xu Zhizhang endured the humiliation and came back with a few boxes of thick scrolls, and then went straight to Lu Zhaoming, and roared with a loveless face: "Lu Zhaoming, my ancestor!" actually buckled such a basin on Lao Tzu's head! It's over, how can I go out and mix in the future, and how can I brag to others about Lao Tzu's extraordinary romance? ”

"Then don't mess around, you don't really like to hang out with those vulgar fans anyway! Hurry up and get down to business, don't shout there, and you're afraid that someone won't know about you? ”

Xu Zhizhang was even more sad and indignant, arguing: "Who said Lao Tzu can't do it? Why don't you give it a try? ”

These words attracted his two little servants on the side, as well as Mingyan's faces, to look at each other.

Lu Zhaoming glanced at him with no interest and said, "I have received your wishes, but I really don't look down on you." Okay, get to work. Don't blame me for not reminding you, if we can't find any flaws within three days, then your sacrifice will be in vain. ”

Xu Zhizhang glared at him with hatred, brushed over the few files in front of him, and began to check them one by one.

In the Yin Mansion in Los Angeles, after the Daughter's Day, all the rooms are obviously busier than before. Needless to say, the eldest lady of the long house is busy with her daughter's marriage and the middle feed in the house, and she can't touch the ground. The second lady also had palpitations because of Yin Qiongzhi's affairs, and she changed her previous carelessness all day long, either going out to buy clothes and jewelry, or looking for someone to drink tea, but she often accompanied several children, and supervised Yin Qiongzhi's female celebrity and the studies of her two sons.

The third room has its own Yin Yukui on top, her mother's illness is much better, and occasionally I see the third lady coming out and walking around, but she doesn't talk much.

Because the Yin Mansion has been in business for generations, several male monarchs are also busy after the beginning of spring. Fang Fei went to Yin Chonghua a few times to ask her to teach her how to paint, and overheard her say that her uncle was very troubled these days, as if a business was originally negotiated for the next family, who knew that now that the goods have arrived in Los Angeles, the buyer who has paid a deposit of 10% of the silver suddenly changed his mind, saying that he had found another cheaper source of goods, so he broke the contract!

At this time, it can choke the eldest uncle Yin Congjia's sorrow. Listening to Yin Chonghua, this batch of goods seems to be a whole ship of fine porcelain tea sets, bowls, etc. Ordinary people can't afford such things, so there are only some rich and noble families or restaurants and teahouses, and put them in private rooms for guests to enjoy.

But unfortunately, the folk custom is that the rich will buy new bowls of tea sets before the year, which is one of the items in the old and the new. Therefore, at such a time, this whole shipload of goods cannot be sold at all when it arrives at the dock!

"How can there be such a business? Why did this buyer only pay 10% of the money in the first place? According to the rules, don't you have to pay at least 30%? ”

Yin Chonghua also sighed: "This person had some friendship with his father in the past, and once his father encountered some tricky things in Xuzhou, he helped him thoroughly." So when he made up his mind at that time, his father was careless for a while and didn't follow the rules. Now that he has suddenly reversed his word, I always feel that someone is trying to play tricks on us, but my father says that we can't guess without evidence. Hey, now that the cargo ship is parked at the dock for a day, we not only have to pay the silver for the dock, but also send people to guard the ship and watch the goods. In addition, the purchase price of this batch of porcelain is extremely high, if it really can't be sold, it is rented in a warehouse for storage, which is also a large expense. ”

When Fang Fei heard her say this, she immediately secretly changed her mind. After bidding farewell to Yin Chonghua, he called Da Tan when he came back and instructed: "You go check and see if anyone in the city has also bought fine porcelain and sold it recently?" If the time is longer, it will be counted as the arrival of the goods before the year. In addition, I went to our ship at the dock to pick up a batch of samples, and said I wanted to see if it was suitable. ”

Da Tan was instructed and took the order to go. After a short time, he first took a batch of exquisite and high-quality goods such as porcelain bowls and fine porcelain tea cups, and said truthfully: "The slave has also found out what the little lady ordered." The price of such porcelain is high, and there is often damage to transportation by land, so only the water route is the safest way to transport it. According to the records on the dock, the Zhao family once parked a big ship at their place a few years ago, and it took two or three days to complete the transportation of the goods. ”

"The Zhao family? Is it the house of Mrs. Zhao who made a big fuss in our ancestral hall last time? ”

Da Tan nodded, and said with a little gloom in his eyes: "Then He Biao's sister and brother have always had no one in their eyes, although the surname Zhao is always messing with flowers and grass outside, but he has not made less money over the years." The slave speculated that the fact that the eldest master was killed this time may be the mastermind behind him. ”

Fang Fei was noncommittal about this, although she also agreed with Da Tan's speculation, but because she knew that she was young, she couldn't easily express her attitude and opinions when she encountered something, otherwise it would be easy for the people around her to see through her thoughts.

This point is also what Yin Chonghua has repeatedly taught her recently, of course, it is also combined with her own personal experience in her previous life.

So she thought for a moment, and then asked, "Then do you know how much silver the eldest uncle's shipload will hold?" ”

Da Tan quickly reported a number, and Fang Fei couldn't help but smack her tongue when she heard it: "So many? No wonder my uncle is so anxious - now is the time when shops everywhere need to buy new goods to catch up with the peak season, this surnamed Zhao suddenly suppressed so much silver from our family on this batch of porcelain, and has to pay the rent and manpower of the dock every day for these things that cannot be sold, it is simply to force my uncle to cut off the flow of funds in hand, so that he will have the opportunity to seize the market! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Little lady, what you said is very right, the slave also speculated in his heart, but the slave doesn't read much, and I don't know how to say it....... "Da Tan really deserves to be the person who followed General Song to the south and north to fight on the battlefield, even if he has raised a horse for ten years, it still does not prevent him from having a more sensitive sense of smell and thinking than ordinary people.

And when he looked at Fang Fei at this time, he simply felt that the little lady was really worthy of the general's flesh and blood, a little girl who was raised in the boudoir and rarely went out, but she could understand these powers, how could she be like these ladies and ladies in the house, who knew all day long that making new clothes and buying rouge gouache could not be compared at all.

But after Fang Fei figured out the Zhao family's intentions, she became more and more worried. Because if the Zhao family really wants to use means to force the Yin Mansion to cut off the flow of funds, then there will definitely be more than such a dark pile. Thinking of this, she immediately stood up, and while heading towards Yin Chonghua's Jixu Zhai, she instructed Hongfu: "Go and talk to my grandmother, just say that I have something important to come over to ask her old man for instructions in a while." ”

Yin Chonghua was embroidering, but after listening to Fang Fei's words, he didn't say a word, took her hand and went to Songhe Hall.
