Chapter 46: Robbery 1
(Cat flutter Chinese) "How many benefits did the Duke of Wen promise you?" Li Tian looked at Shopkeeper Zhao and asked in a flat voice, "Let you do such a thing to defraud the seller?" A few days ago, I met the eldest princess of Ningguo in the palace of Dongyang County, and the eldest princess asked me, Qianchunfang has a profit of 20,000 yuan in previous years, why was it only 10,000 taels last year? I can't answer this, and you don't take me into account, I don't dare to ask you this, so I will ask you for the eldest princess, and you will answer your new master's words. Please remember the URL of this site: . ”
Shopkeeper Zhao's face turned from red to white and then to gray, staring straight at Li Tian, his two hands subconsciously clenched into fists, Li Tian looked at him sympathetically: "Just to make this ten thousand taels of silver into a confused account?" I can make you confused, your new owner can't allow you to fool her half of the silver, the eldest princess is not without a shop, her shopkeeper is easy to do or difficult to do, don't you know? Or am I thinking wrong, Shopkeeper Zhao is ready to take this 10,000 silver back to his hometown for retirement? Li Tian laughed softly: "Then the eldest princess has to nod, what about 10,000 silver, the slender lady that Wen Guogong misses is worth exactly 10,000 now." ”
"The owner is in a hurry, why is it nonsense!?" Shopkeeper Zhao was stubble, and Shopkeeper Wang straightened up and scolded: "Are you talking to the owner?! Shopkeeper Zhao was about to block his neck back, but Li Tian raised his hand to stop it: "Since he devoted himself to the Wenguo Mansion, he and I can't talk about this guest and host." ”
Shopkeeper Wang stared at Shopkeeper Zhao and snorted heavily, Li Tian looked at Shopkeeper Zhao, whose face was purple, and said, "I understand the plans of Duke Wen and you, do you also understand?" Li Tian turned his head to look at the other four shopkeepers and asked, the four shopkeepers were uneven or 'yes' or 'um', Li Tian didn't pay much attention, just looked at the shopkeeper Zhao and smiled: "Qianchunfang can't keep you anymore, Shopkeeper Wang will pass a word for me, from now on, Shopkeeper Zhao will not be allowed to step into Qianchunfang for half a step, as for the 10,000 silver, you can take it back to support the elderly, grandma has always been generous to the shopkeeper and his buddies, I can't fall her reputation." ”
"You?!" Shopkeeper Zhao stood up with a 'whew', and the development of things was completely out of his imagination: "Without Qu Yin, you will guard Qianchun Fang and see it rot!"
"I said I'd rather burn it on fire." Li Tian smiled idly: "Shopkeeper Zhao walks slowly, Shopkeeper Sun will send a gift to Shopkeeper Zhao for me." Shopkeeper Sun hurriedly stood up and raised his hand to signal Shopkeeper Zhao, Shopkeeper Zhao stared at Li Tian fiercely and said, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, chickens can't touch stones." After speaking, he raised his head and 'hummed', dusted off his clothes vigorously, and shook his hands and left.
Li Tian exhaled softly, turned his head to look at the other four shopkeepers and said: "There are few nobles in this world who are as good as me/Temperament, and I have ...... messed up the errand" Li Tian laughed softly: "I have heard a lot of this kind of thing, alas, there are not many owners like grandma and me who are easy to talk to." ”
As he spoke, Li Tian stood up, motioned to Cao's fourth daughter-in-law to wear a hat, and looked at the shopkeeper Wang and ordered: "They want to be lively, let's be lively too, the more lively the better." ”
"Yes!" Shopkeeper Wang hurriedly stood up and respectfully agreed, and the other four shopkeepers also hurriedly stood up, watching Shopkeeper Wang respectfully lead Li Tian out of the door, you look at me, I look at you, and stood tacitly waiting for Shopkeeper Wang to come back and speak.
Li Tian returned to Qingtong Courtyard, Yue Niang came in, waved her hand and sent Yingluo and the others away, looked at Li Tian and said, "Just let go of that surnamed Zhao?" It's too cheap for him! He is not the same as the surname Huang, the surname Huang is to escape, he is stabbing in the back! I don't think I can cheapen him, just kill him!"
"If the shopkeeper Zhao has something three long and two short, a discerning person will know at a glance, either it is the hand of the Duke of Wen, or our hand, don't underestimate the Yamen of the Beijing Mansion, there is also a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and it may not be possible to find out who is under the hand," Li Tian held the cup with both hands, looked out of the window for a while before he continued: "Now the prince will come to the government council in the middle of the month, I always feel that this great prince who does not hum nothing but has a great reputation is not simple, besides, we can only show weakness now, and ask for the pity and sympathy of others, If there is such a thing as killing Zhao's shopkeeper, it will be more than worth the loss. ”
"He's really cheap." Yue Niang said regretfully,
"Don't worry, he may not have a good time." Li Tian tilted his head and thought about it again, and then ordered: "You go to Sun Liu, let him keep an eye on Zhao's shopkeeper these days, in case there is anything wrong, we can't be framed." ”
"Okay, I'll go." Yue Niang stood up and lifted the curtain and went out, Li Tian leaned on the kang, looking at the flowers outside the window in a daze.
The post of the merger celebration of Qingfeng Lou and Qianchunfang was sent to the eldest princess of Ningguo, and the eldest princess of Ningguo read it several times, and she couldn't believe what she said, so she hurriedly sent three or four groups of people out to inquire, and she was convinced, but she felt that her throat was sweet, and she didn't come up in one breath, and she almost fainted.
Wu Chenglin, the Duke of Wen, and Steward Dai followed her mother-in-law and hurried to the eldest princess of Ningguo to go to the room, and the eldest princess of Ningguo drank a few sips of Suhexiang wine, and she had already relieved her breath, and when she saw Steward Dai enter the door, she pointed at him and scolded: "Useless Wang Ba thing!" You don't even know about such a big thing! What's the use of keeping you all this waste? Come on, drag me down and beat me, kill count!"
Steward Dai shook in fright, threw himself on the ground and kowtowed, Wu Chenglin flashed a few steps to the side, dodging the scolding of the eldest princess of Ningguo, and swept his eyes and the frightened Steward Dai pleaded: "This can't be all blamed on him, I think it's the one surnamed Zhao who is making trouble in the middle, didn't the one surnamed Zhao say yesterday that it was the little lady of the Li family who gambled and held on?" Or catch the surnamed Zhao back and kill him to relieve his anger. ”
The eldest princess of Ningguo raised her hand to stop the stout woman who was about to drag the steward down, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, raised her hand and said, "Get up first!" Steward Dai hurriedly got up, the soles of his feet were weak and trembling, and he stood beside him with his hands down, and the eldest princess of Ningguo pointed at him viciously and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?" How did Qingfeng Lou take over Qianchunfang? ”
"A-Niang, I don't think it's a big deal," Wu Chenglin said lightly and carelessly: "That Qingfeng Building is the property of the Huang family, and the Huang family is like a dog in front of the fifth child. ”
"You fool!" The eldest princess of Ning Guo had a headache and chest tightness: "Qingfeng Lou clearly and clearly knows that we took the song of Qianchun Fang, so how shrewd Huang Jingjie is, can he still guess our plans?" This still dares to take over Qianchunfang, he is doing it knowingly!"
"This Yellow Pure Festival is really not a thing!" Wu Chenglin hurriedly said indignantly: "Isn't this a heart to make you ugly?" Why don't you go into the palace to find the official family and say this, and let the official family comment on this reason. The eldest princess of Ningguo looked at her son in disappointment and sadness, and only after a long time did she take a deep breath, looked at her son and said coldly: "What do you say to the official family?" Said that we wanted to plot the property of other orphans, but we were robbed by Qingfeng Building halfway? ”
Wu Chenglin didn't dare to answer, the eldest princess of Ningguo raised her hand and patted her chest, coughed a few times and ordered: "You go over now, go to find the fifth brother, and tell him, we took over this year's song of Qianchunfang, and we are waiting to take over Qianchunfang's wine business, the Huang family intercepted Qianchunfang, this is to make us have no way to live, just tell him!" I think he can pull down this face and say 'no'!"
"A-Niang, say this...... Do you really think about this? Okay, okay, I'll go if you think it's good, don't be angry, my son has written it down, don't worry!" Wu Chenglin excused himself like a toothache, and when he saw that the eldest princess of Ning Guo raised his eyebrows and was about to be angry, he hurriedly agreed, beckoned to Dai Steward, and retreated together.
When the two came out, Wen Guogong Wu Chenglin shook the folding fan irritably, and he also pointed to the silver from Qianchun Fang to redeem Miss Xianxian, and told Yao's mother that it was okay, and saw that the silver in his hand flew away! can go to the fifth prince Qin Qi to ask for Qianchunfang, he is even more reluctant to go, that fifth brother is not a good thing! Wu Chenglin thought about the few times he bumped his head with the five princes in the past two years, and his heart was filled with a layer of fear, and he hesitated at his feet, and his intention to retreat was even stronger.
"Grandpa Guo, where are we going to find the fifth master?" Steward Dai was even frustrated and frightened just now, with a layer of horror on his face, he bowed flatteringly, and asked in an extremely low voice, Wu Chenglin 'banged' to accept the folding fan, twisted his brows and twisted his beard, and only spoke after a while: "This early in the morning, I'm afraid that I'm still in the palace, where can I find it?!, let's go to find the surnamed Zhao first, if it weren't for him, we could fold the silver in?" He has to give his master an explanation for this, I heard that he made a lot of silver from Qianchun Fang, go find him first, don't let him run away!"
"Yes!" Steward Dai agreed very simply, these words hit his heart, it was the surname Zhao who broke this big thing!
When Wu Chenglin broke into Zhao's shopkeeper's residence with a group of long-term followers and guards, Zhao's shopkeeper was watching people pack their luggage. Steward Dai commanded the guards, drove Zhao's shopkeeper and a few servants to a corner of the courtyard, and followed Wu Chenglin into the upper room.
Shopkeeper Zhao looked at the two of them with a pale face, Wu Chenglin with one hand behind his back, one hand shaking a folding fan, standing in the middle of the room, looking around with his head held high, and first laughed a few times: "What, coaxing the pastime, this is preparing to escape?" ”
"Where did Grandpa Guo start with this? Even if the little one has great courage, he doesn't dare to coax the grandfather of the country. As soon as the shopkeeper Zhao heard that the head was wrong, he hurriedly laughed and accompanied the sin, and this morning when he heard that Qingfeng Lou took over Qianchunfang, he knew that he was only afraid that the two ends would not fall well, and the merger of these two families must have been planned for a long time, and then thinking about Li Tian's words that day, he only felt a chill in his back, and after thinking for a while, he hurriedly asked people to pack their luggage and hurry back to the countryside to avoid trouble, but he didn't expect Wen Guogong to come so quickly.
