Chapter 28: The Slap

By the time Harunon returned to the city, the sun had already set. Dinner has already begun to be prepared in the Star Picking Building.

Chunyin was going to report the news first. Xia Ming on the side had already finished her errand and had been waiting for a whole day, and at this moment, she stopped Chunyin: "Miss has been busy all day to deal with affairs, and now she is having dinner." You take advantage of this to hurry up and get something to eat. We've taken turns eating. After a while, the young lady finished eating and was about to go home. If you inquire about the news, you will take advantage of the time when the young lady has tea after dinner to reply, isn't it to save time? ”

Xia Ming arranged it very well, and Chunyin was busy going according to Xia Ming's arrangement.

Qin Mingyue ate the exquisite meals prepared in the Star Picking Tower, and she was still in a good mood. She is not a person who can't endure hardship, but it's good that she can not endure hardship. In the past few decades in her previous life, Qin Mingyue had been accustomed to the life of brocade clothes and jade food, where could she get used to the rough food of the Liguo Mansion? Therefore, in the past two days, she has lunch and dinner in the Star Picking Tower. There is no way to have breakfast, so you can only enjoy it at the Liguo Mansion.

While eating, Qin Mingyue thought that she must make money as soon as possible, improve the life of the Liguo Mansion as soon as possible, and strive to eat a better breakfast.

After eating, Qin Mingyue drank the high-grade Mengshan snow buds, and was just about to rest for a while, when Chunyin had already come, saluted, and began to report the situation.

Qin Mingyue listened carefully and asked, "You did a good job." This He Jinfang has been on the dock for five or six days? ”

Chunyin hurriedly said: "This is all the official who followed to inquire." I watched, he was still very neat. It is said that this He Jinfang has been on the dock for five or six days. If he can't sell it for another three days, he won't be able to continue docking. There are also rules on the docks. When the time comes, he will either pull the silk back to Jiangnan, or dump it on the spot. Not to mention making money, it is estimated that you will lose money. In the past few days alone, he has been worried. In the past few days, the cost of labor and berths is very large, and he is also struggling to support. The silk merchants on the dock judged that he couldn't hold on. ”

Qin Mingyue nodded. In this life, the situation is the same as in the previous life. When He Xiang was fighting with himself, didn't he rely on the support of a few rich businessmen? One of them is this He Jinfang. At that time, with the support of He Xiang, he had become the largest silk merchant in Jiangnan, and even shook the position of the Jinyang Hou family in the silk industry. It made Hua Yixuan's mother and son very annoyed.

At that time, he also dealt with He Jinfang, but He Xiang, an old and cunning person, was unsuccessful. He also used to win over himself, but He Jinfang said that back then, when he was desperate on the side of the canal because of three boats of plain silk, it was He Xiang who happened to pass by and bought three boats of plain silk to save him. Therefore, later, no matter how much Qin Mingyue gave him, he couldn't buy him.

At that time, Hua Yixuan was even a pity, why wasn't he the one who relieved He Jinfang on the side of the canal? If you get the He Jinfang brothers, who are especially good at doing silk business, the Hua family will definitely be able to monopolize the silk industry in the entire Great Zhou. And it's not just the industry leaders.

I didn't expect that I would be reborn, it seems that Hua Yixuan's regretful things have a chance to come true.

Thinking of this, Qin Mingyue's mood was obviously a little better, and she said: "What is the name of this official you said, since it is reliable, let him go and continue to stare at it." In addition, Xia Ming, you took out six thousand taels of silver and gave it to the official, and asked him to wait for two days, and on the third day, you must buy He Jinfang's three boats of plain silk in the morning. After buying it, I rented a warehouse on the spot and stored it. And let him keep watching. In five days, I'm going to sell the plain silk. Well, also, after buying it, remember to ask He Jinfang to come to me for a visit. I want to see him. ”

Chunyin frowned and said, "Miss, this official is called Zhou Mingsheng." I'll do it now. It's just that what we inquired about was that this He Jinfang was going to sell three boats of plain silk to the dyeing house for 6,300 taels of silver. Now sell it at a reduced price, and you can take it down for about 5,500 taels. Is it too much for Miss to give 6,000 taels? ”

Qin Mingyue said: "It's not much, I'm watching, basically five thousand eight hundred taels can be won, give He Jinfang more, don't let him lose too much money." Also, ask this Zhou Mingsheng to bring us to the post of the National Teacher of Xinglou. If there are unsightly silk merchants in the capital who want to ruin our business, we will show them the post of the National Teacher. As for the remaining two hundred taels of silver, Zhou Mingsheng had to be asked to rent a warehouse, load and unload, etc. ”

Chunyin then understood, and was busy.

Qin Mingyue didn't say much, and directly called Xia Ming and Dongqu over to prepare to return to the Gonggong Mansion.

Back at the Liguo Mansion, Qin Mingyue changed her clothes, rested for a while, and when it was time to hold the lamp, she took the maids and grandmothers to the side courtyard of the Guogong Mansion. The place was quite large, and there were already people standing in the dark.

Among them, the first ones were the aunts of Qin Ping, the Duke of Liguo, who were angry.

Those aunts wanted to breathe fire, Qin Mingyue directly chose to ignore them. Just kidding, what is the hateful eyes of a few aunts? In her previous life, she was in the court, arguing with those ministers for more than ten years, and her psychological quality had long been trained.

Qin Mingyue went directly to the high platform that had been set up and sat down, and naturally her own people were waiting next to her.

Qin Mingyue spoke: "Put a pestle on a few aunts and sit down." ”

The people have been preparing for a long time. Busy putting the ladies on the pestle to sit on. Several aunts were still indignant, among them, Aunt Rong, who gave birth to the third son, Qin Guoliu, held her own identity, she first looked up at her delicate face and said: "I don't know what it means for the second lady to give a lecture to the subordinates, and call a few of our sisters?" ”

Qin Mingyue didn't speak, and Mama Ma next to her had already changed her face: "Aunt Rong, please respect yourself." Although Miss is the second lady in the Liguo Mansion, she is also the official of the imperial court and the six-grade official of the Star Tower. How dare you, a half-slave aunt, talk to the young lady like this? ”

Mama Ma's words immediately made the people below talk about it.

Aunt Rong was even more angry. Not only Aunt Rong was angry, but all Qin Ping's aunts exploded. These people have always relied on Qin Ping's favor, and even Mrs. Yin of the main room dared to step on it, but now they are actually said to be half-slaves by a grandmother, how can they bear it?

Before Aunt Rong could speak, the most favored Aunt Shui had already screamed: "You are an old slave, you dare to say that we are half-slaves, do you want to die?" ”

Mama Ma smiled coldly, walked over quickly, and slapped Aunt Shui in the face directly.

Aunt Shui's pretty face suddenly became red and swollen.

The scene suddenly fell silent. The rules of the Liguo Mansion for several generations are that the favored aunt is the largest, who has ever seen the favored aunt beaten?
