Chapter 228: Checks and Balances
Xia Zongping let her look at it, but in fact, he was also very nervous, if Zhu Youning still clung to his previous offense, he was afraid that he would really have to give up all his efforts.
The most important thing is that he is clearly a bird today, giving the lead to the group of old foxes, if he leaves, those people will be less of his opponent, and those people can get more opportunities, he feels that his approach is simply to make a wedding dress for others, which is very wronged.
After a while, just when Xia Zongping thought that Zhu Youning would reject him, Zhu Youning smiled and said, "Okay." Then Shopkeeper Xia will go home and rest for the time being, and accompany me to the capital in two days. ”
Xia Zongping was stunned for a moment, and then finally took a long breath, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he arched his hand: "Yes." Then I'll wait for news from the owner. ”
Zhu Youning nodded, said goodbye to Xia Zongping, and got into the carriage under the service of the maidservant.
Xia Zongping stepped aside and watched Zhu Youning's carriage drift away, before he sighed and went home.

Chang'an Restaurant at the same time.
In the spacious box, Fang Wenjing was sitting upright in the first place and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Beside him, several shopkeepers who were supposed to have gone back separately were now gathered here.
Yu Qingyun sighed and said, "I didn't expect the owner's attitude to be so tough. didn't even consider the identity of Shopkeeper Xia as the big shopkeeper in Hangzhou, so he asked Shopkeeper Xia to resign. I can't help but wonder, is the owner afraid of the power of the shopkeeper Xia, and deliberately wants this person to go, so as not to cover up his edge? ”
"Possibly." Dong Ze echoed: "Don't look at the owner's temperament like a lady's beauty, and her appearance is like a well-behaved cat, but in my opinion, she is clearly a little fox with a well-behaved skin, and she is cunning in her heart." You see that she was silent from beginning to end, but everything was developing according to her mind, and she suppressed all of us to death. ”
"yes." Several people nodded in unison.
Recalling what Fang Cai had done, Qiu Xinghua couldn't help but sigh: "The owner is so resolute and so cunning, it's not easy for us to seize the decision-making power, and we have to think of another way." ”
"Exactly." Yu Qingyun also said: "The owner is a deep boudoir woman, and it should be the end of the year, right?" When the time comes, when we talk about marrying each other and teaching each other and children, do you still want to continue to meddle in our business? Anyway, I don't want to listen to the command of a woman's family. Could it be that we, the experienced shopkeepers, are not as good as her as a woman? ”
"Shopkeeper Fang, you also have to think of a way, after all, among those of us, you know the owner the earliest and know her the deepest."
Everyone looked at Fang Wenjing in unison.
Fang Wenjing opened his eyes, shook his head solemnly, and said, "I said a long time ago, don't underestimate the enemy. As the shopkeeper Dong said, don't look at the owner as a young girl, but she is actually unfathomable. I know this best. Today, we didn't take advantage of the fact that the owner had just come out of the customs to get the decision-making power, she was on guard, and we would have no chance in the future. Let's take a break from this for now. ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and they couldn't help but feel that Fang Wenjing was exaggerating.
"People have misses, horses have stumbled, can the owner still sit firmly on the Diaoyutai?"
Fang Wenjing shook his head, there were some things he didn't dare to make public indiscriminately.
These people only know that Zhu Youning is the ninth lady of the Zhu family, a member of Rose, the honorary president of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce, the identity of the imperial merchant, and the identity of the imperial honor guard.
But only he knew that Zhu Youning could not only walk with the honor guard of the earl, but she also knew a real uncle and had a great relationship with him.
Uncle Yan's methods were so powerful that they were amazed.
With Uncle Yan becoming a celebrity in front of the saint in just six years, and as a businessman, he can make the saint ignore the words of "businessman injustice" on the "Holy Ancestor's Teachings" and become the first "benevolent and righteous uncle" among the businessmen.
In this regard, the success of Chang'an Qianzhuang cannot be replicated, and it is similar to the success of Uncle Yan.
Fang Wenjing couldn't help but think of Zhu Youning who had just retreated to study six years ago, and it happened to be the fourth half-day break, so he made an appointment with Yan Sui, who came to Fuyang, to Chang'an Qianzhuang.
At that time, Fang Wenjing knew that Zhu Youning did not let people know the secret that she was the behind-the-scenes boss of Chang'an Qianzhuang, so he was very surprised to see Yan Sui coming with her, and he wanted to pretend to hide it.
Who knew that when she arrived at a separate private room, Zhu Youning, who was still an eight-year-old girl at the time, said to Yan Sui generously: "Chang'an Qianzhuang is my business, and my honorary president's brand has been given to you, so you have to take care of my business more in the future." ”
Then he said to Fang Wenjing: "Yan Gongzi is my friend, if you have any difficulties, in case I don't have time to come out to solve it, you can ask him." ”
At that time, Fang Wenjing only felt that Zhu Youning and Yan Sui must be very good partners, otherwise they would not have entrusted them to the truth.
But with the increase of experience, the current Fang Wenjing has a taste from it.
Zhu Youning's treatment of Yan Sui and Fang Wenjing was actually reserved, and introducing them to each other was actually to let the two of them restrain each other.
Now, six years have passed since then.
Chang'an Qianzhuang is growing day by day, and Yan Sui has become the most favored benevolent and righteous uncle around the saint, and he has also become a big shopkeeper in charge of hundreds of large and small shopkeepers.
However, the mutual support and constraints between Yan's industry and Chang'an Qianzhuang are still playing a role.
At the very least, if Zhu Youning hadn't explained the foundation to Yan Sui at the beginning, with Fang Wenjing's current means and thoughts, Zhu Youning would have been at a loss for words.
But now Yan Sui's existence has become Fang Wenjing's biggest fear, he doesn't have the courage to do that.
Fang Wenjing is now restrained, and only then does he really feel Zhu Youning's terribleness.
She was only eight years old when she came up with the idea of mutual constraints.
Fang Wenjing thought a lot. But it's really just between breaths.
He stood up and said, "Let's put this matter aside for the time being, listen to me, if it doesn't work this time, it won't be easy for the owner to use tricks again." In order not to provoke people, it is better to leave it for now. ”
Several big shopkeepers looked at each other, but they had to nod their heads and think of another way.
At this time, Zhu Youning had just returned home, and a messenger came to the house, and said with a smile on his face: "Miss Jiu, the old lady asks you to visit the government immediately." ”
Zhu Youning's silence in the past few years has made those in the Zhu family who are red and white less polite to her.
The performance of this little guy surprised her, and she couldn't help asking, "Do you know what happened to my grandfather looking for me?" ”
The little guy scratched his head and said, "It seems that there is a post for you in the capital, and the old lady told the little one to invite the young lady over, I think I want to read the post together, right?" ”
