Hearing this, if Yan Yuqing didn't know his intention, he would be really stupid.

The Qin family saluted first and then the soldiers, and sent Qin Guan to take the lead, seeing that Yan Yuqing didn't buy it, two days later, he sent a son Qin Zheng who was good at general affairs.

He is different from Qin Guan, he has traveled and experienced business all the year round, which makes him less sincere and sincere in Qin Guan, but a little more sophisticated and cunning, and it seems that he is also the object of careful cultivation by the Qin family.

"Is the girl going to make a living on her own, or do you have to make us some thunderbolts?" Qin Zheng bent his head and fiddled with the spring-colored round jade on his belt, and his eyelids never lifted.

At this time, he was like a leisurely prone lying in the depths of the mountains and forests, squinting his eyes to guard against a lazy male lion around him. seems to be careless, but in fact, he cares most about his own one-third of an acre. If there is an alien intruder, he will not hesitate to pounce on it, tearing it to pieces.

The corners of Yan Yuqing's mouth raised slightly, and he looked at him kindly: "What kind of thunder means should be used on me, a person who has just come to Yizhou and just wants to do a little business?" Are the merchants in Yizhou particularly afraid of rising stars? ”

"Rising star?" Qin Zheng glanced at her with a smile, and then looked at Ziheng, who had been drinking watermelon juice and eating all kinds of nuts, fruits and pastries next to him, his mouth was round and open, and he pretended to be surprised and asked, "Are you talking about it or him?" Or are you guys? ”

Zihuan, who had been eating, heard it, as if he was talking about him, and swallowed a big mouthful of watermelon juice unhappily, and replied: "What, do you have an opinion about the young lady praising me?" What thunder and lightning, just come, it's amazing, I haven't seen anything, sir, don't be afraid! ”

As he spoke, he snorted coldly and continued to eat what was in front of him, but his eyes were aimed at Yan Yuqing from time to time.

Yan Yuqing couldn't help but hold his forehead, what do you always look at me, dare to love You also know that I will be angry if I do this. A small burst of pumping at every turn, that super self-confidence is also incomparable, and this negotiation can be regarded as collapsing again.

Looking at Qin Zheng's majestic back surging like a mountain and leaving angrily, Ziheng looked at Yan Yuqing innocently, with an innocent expression: "I made him angry and left?"

Yan Yuqing rolled his eyes, hehe, what about it. sighed in his heart: I don't know how the Qin family will deal with us?

Seeing that Yan Yuqing was a little worried, Ziheng took a bite of cloud cake, raised his chin slightly, waved his hand and said disappreciably: "What are you afraid of, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, a small Yizhou Qin family is also worth worrying about." ”

Yan Yuqing was almost angry at this stinky boy's arrogance, and his mind was uneasy, so he walked over and deliberately broke his tied hair, and scolded with a smile: "You can eat it!"

Ziheng hurriedly sorted out his hair, and didn't forget to mutter: "It's not because you're too tall, how can I eat more?"

As he was talking, Qingzhu came back with an empty basket of grievances, "What's the matter today, rice is as expensive as gold, and the price of fruits has also risen, it seems that everything is expensive in one day, and it is not only a little more expensive!" ”

"Have you asked someone else?" Yan Yuqing saw that Qingzhu was covered with fine sweat when he went out for a while, and it could be seen that he was either in a hurry or anxious, so he handed her a fan.

Qingzhu fanned the fan and took a sip of hot tea before replying: "I don't know what's wrong, when I heard that I didn't have a local accent, I was selling other people's rice for ten dollars and one tael just now, and it suddenly became one or two silver to me." Isn't this a pitfall! ”

Yan Yuqing supported his chin with his hand, leaned on a large satin pillow, and said with a smile: "It turns out that this is their thunderous method, forcing us to be unable to survive here, and then we either give up making tea, or leave Yizhou." It was I who underestimated the influence of the Qin family in Yizhou. ”

"If you don't let the prince tell the local officials that the Qin family is deliberately raising prices and disrupting people's livelihood, the government will be responsible." The cloud stop on the side helped to make suggestions. He didn't want to let Yixin Jewelry, which was already on the right track and doing better business, face the danger of closing.

"No," Yan Yuqing immediately vetoed, "These days, the prince is secretly talking with a few generals about the military defense of Beiliang, and he knows that there are not many people in Yizhou, so don't bother him." Bei Liang is like a tiger and a wolf, I don't know when it will raid our territory again, it is better to let them plan earlier. Our affairs are all trivial, so let's solve them ourselves. ”

Xue Yun nodded in agreement after hearing this, indeed, compared with national events, their business of opening or not opening a tea shop is indeed not worth mentioning.

"Why don't you ask Shi Yan to bring you some rice, salt, vegetables, meat, and the like? Anyway, his ship is so big. Zi Heng's words were not shocking, and he looked calm and light, completely treating other people's ships as his own.

This dead boy, no matter how old he is, is getting higher and higher. Yan Yuqing glanced at him and warned: "Don't be too profligate, you dare to fight the idea of the Shi family boat, be careful and suffer a big loss in the future." ”

The corners of Ziheng's mouth twitched, his eyes were silent, he dared to love this young lady who had transformed him Zihuan into a child mode again, which was a blatant disdain of not paying attention to him, but he had no way to refute it now, let's do it first, he sighed silently in his heart, now is not the time.

The sun was too strong, and he didn't even have much appetite for lunch, Yan Yuqing stared at the dishes on the table without moving his chopsticks, looked at Ziheng who was eating fragrantly, took a bowl and drank a mouthful of soup, and looked at the blue and cloudless sky under the dazzling eyes outside, it was really getting hotter and hotter.

"Bang...... The sound of "bang ......" came from the door, it was the crisp sound of chopsticks hitting the bowl, Yan Yuqing followed the voice, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old unkempt little beggar, dressed in a blue-gray crumpled coarse cloth shirt, was standing at the door looking at their sumptuous meal.

"Want to eat?" Yan Yuqing stood up and walked over and asked.

The little beggar nodded, his stomach gurgling. Yan Yuqing said, "Wait for me", and served him dishes such as pork ribs with sauce and roasted eggplant, along with fragrant white rice, in a large bowl.

He thanked Yan Yuqing gratefully, and was about to leave, when he turned around and asked, "Is the Mingcui Tea House being renovated the girl's family?" ”

Yan Yuqing nodded puzzled, is she so famous in Yizhou, even the beggar knows that she is going to open a tea house. Feeling that something didn't seem right, she asked a little suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

The beggar walked up to her in three or two steps, put down the bowl, bowed down, and the posture was still humble and downward, and the sparse and sonorous body attracted people's attention.

"I was originally from a craftsman family in Nanzhong, and I came all the way to find my wife who had not passed through the door, and then I was killed by a traitor and ended up here. I once accidentally discovered that those people were doing something in your shop, and I was afraid of getting into trouble, so I pretended not to know, but seeing that the girl was willing to help someone I didn't know, how could I be ungrateful. Therefore, it is hereby informed. ”

Just as the beggar was about to turn around and leave, Yan Yuqing stopped him and asked, "Do you know what went wrong?" ”

She also went to see the shop often during the construction, but she didn't find any problems.

The beggar bowed his head and said, "Without the load-bearing main pillar, I am afraid that there is a risk of collapse." ”

When Yan Yuqing heard this, his heart was shocked, the Qin family was so ruthless that they wanted to bury them here for a long time.

She went to the Mingcui Tea House, and after some careful investigation, she found that not only the main column was problematic, but even the main beams and walls were not qualified.

So, she grabbed a contractor and asked, "Have you renovated the Qin family?" ”

Seeing that Yin Feng next to him glanced at him with a bright steel knife, intentionally or unintentionally, the man immediately trembled weakly, and replied tremblingly: "I just renovated their warehouse." ”

"Oh?" Yan Yuqing raised her eyebrows slightly, and she looked like a weasel was happy when she saw the chicken.

Late at night, the smoke is billowing and the tea foam is scattered with the wind. The Qin family's warehouse has long lost its former majesty in the fire, and the fire that has been rising all the way, but it has only been within the range of the Qin family's warehouse, is burning more and more fiercely.

Qinjiatun's spring tea for a year was burned in this fire.

Yan Yuqing sat in a rocking chair, looking at the fireworks in the night in the distance, the firelight scorched the stars, the sky crackled, and the ground was noisy.

Her eyes, reflecting the raging fire outside, were seductive and enchanting.

Compared with Yan Yuqing's leisurely self-satisfaction, the Qin Mansion looked panicked.

Qin Zheng said to Qin Lao, the patriarch of the Qin family: "Nanzhong Secret Letter said that this year's spring tea is gone, and it has been taken away by the Shi family and another incognito clan, what should we do now?" ”

"How much spring tea is left in the spare warehouse?" Qin Lao asked with both hands on crutches.

Qin Zheng sighed, "All of them have been booked by officials and regular customers in previous years, and now even if some are temporarily released, I'm afraid it won't be enough to wait for this year's autumn tea to come." Besides, those people are stubborn, I'm afraid they may not be willing to want autumn tea. ”

In previous years, the Qin family's spring tea was supplied to high-ranking officials and scholars, and autumn tea was used to sell to ordinary people and restaurants, but now let alone spring tea, it is autumn tea, and their Qin family can't take it out now.

"It's a trivial matter if you can't make money, but what can those tea merchants and officials who have signed an agreement do, there is no goods to give them at the moment." Old Qin's eyes were full of helplessness and anxiety, and the whole person had long lost the demeanor of the richest patriarch in the past, like a helpless and dazed ordinary old man.

Tea cannot be left ungiven, otherwise years of credibility will be in vain.

In the early morning of the next day, Yizhou was full of fragrance, different from the choking smell of burnt tea last night, and the fresh and sweet smell wafted far away, lingering among the pedestrians on the street.

"What tastes so pure, like fruity?"

"I seem to smell the aroma of tea."

Although the people on the street couldn't smell it exactly, the Qin family, who had been dealing in tea for many years, smelled this unique and mellow aroma for the first time.

"It's tea", Qin Lao came out of the gate of the Qin Mansion on crutches, his back was straight, and a pair of dark eyes full of wrinkles suddenly became bright. When he saw the ten-mile truck driving on the street, he showed a hint of surprise, but he quickly covered it up.

He gestured to the man beside him, who stepped forward and gave the coachman a bit of broken silver, and asked a few quick questions. After he returned to the old man and whispered a few words, the old man's eyes were different from the fleeting surprise just now, but he stopped in the distance and did not move for a long time......
