Chapter 42: The Situation Is Pressing
"Harnessing ......"
With the sound of cracked brocade wheels crashing on the ground, a dusty blue carriage stopped at the gate of Yang's mansion.
"Mr. Yang, you're back!" The little gatekeeper who was listlessly squatting on the ground counting ants lit up, got up to meet the car and raised the curtains, revealing a tall and thin man in his fifties with a clear face.
It is Yang Shantang, the general account of the eighteen properties of the Yang family, who is personally in charge of Liuhe.
"Where's Uncle?" He jumped out of the carriage by the hand.
"In the study!" The little guy replied, "I've urged you five or six times, so you can go directly as soon as you come back." ”
Feng Yingjie, who was discussing in the study, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the news brought back by Yang Shantang.
“…… Shen Huaiyu still has a posthumous son? ”
Yang Ziqian smiled with interest, "It seems that Shen Huaijie is not as dull as rumored outside." ”
The child is not Shen Huaijie's, what does this have to do with whether he is stupid or not?
Feng Yingjie blinked in confusion.
Yang Shantang had already smiled and continued:
"This girl is also a wonderful person, relying on the only blood and blood of Shen Huaiyu, she changed all the people around her within three days of entering the door, and tossed Shen Mansion in five days...... "I said what I saw and heard in Liuhe Town without a word.
Feng Yingjie was breathtaking.
Is this really a woman?
Yang Ziqian's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, "She knows how to take advantage of the situation, she is indeed a wonderful person." ”
Looking at the portrait of Zhao Qing's underworld marriage printed back by Yang Shantang on the desktop with great interest, the woman in the painting pursed her cherry lips lightly, her eyebrows were like green feathers, especially the eyes as clear as a lake, warm and faint, as if she had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, and was smiling softly at him......
Yang Ziqian's heart trembled inexplicably.
He shook his head suddenly, "It's a pity, it's a woman!" ”
If it's a man, he really has to be serious about coping with it.
glanced at Yang Ziqian in surprise. Feng Yingjie's lips moved, but in the end he didn't say anything.
You can hear a needle drop in the study.
"What do you think?" Yang Ziqian's five fingers fell lightly, and a rhythmic knock suddenly sounded in the study.
"Fang Ping'an is timid as a mouse but good at calculation, and his prestige in the Liuhe area is extremely high. If the uncle wants to buy the grain in that area, he really can't do without this person, and ......he looks at it as a slave," Feng Yingjie spoke first, "Shen Huaiyu originally agreed to marry the Fang family, and he probably went to the grain in the area of the Liuhe River. You must know that Liuhe is a major grain-producing area, accounting for a quarter of the grain output of Tanxi Province......"
The voice stopped abruptly, and Feng Yingjie suddenly woke up.
Yes, Fang Xueying did such a shameful thing, even if she was pregnant with Shen Huaiyu's only blood, it stands to reason that the Shen family should be confined and executed after the child is born...... The Shen family must have taken a fancy to Fang Ping'an's prestige and wanted to use him to buy grain from the Liuhe area on credit!
That's why she let the Shen family make trouble up.
Shen Huaijie can have this perseverance. Thinking so far ahead, it's really not "too stupid"!
didn't dare to express his "high opinion" again, Feng Yingjie smiled at Yang Ziqian, "This, the uncle knows better than the slave in his heart." ”
Yang Ziqian was speechless.
His five fingers were still tapping lightly on the table, and his gaze fell to Yang Shantang again.
"The chess is one move away, the Yang family is one step late!" Yang Shantang's expression was solemn.
"How so!" Feng Yingjie glared, "Accurate news, the Shen family's silver on the grain has exceeded 800,000 taels, and the funds of more than 30 sub-industries have been withdrawn. Now Master Shen is borrowing money everywhere. "Look at Yang Ziqian," ...... As long as the uncle throws out the newly raised 300,000 taels, the Shen family will be finished immediately! ”
"Shopkeeper Feng's words are wrong." Yang Shantang's head shook with a rattle.
"Why!"
Feng Yingjie glared at him like a.
"It's that there's no food to collect outside!" There was a sudden bang, and Yang Ziqian suddenly spoke. "If the Shen family refuses to throw away grain, it will be useless for us to invest another three million taels."
"Except for the Willow River area." Yang Shantang's high-pitched voice was loud.
Seeing Feng Yingjie open his mouth to refute, he said, "In the current situation, the Yang family and the Shen family are one south and one north, and the amount of grain hoarding is almost the same. Let's see who can receive the food in the area of the Willow River. ”
Whoever receives the hand will get the right to supply food to the army of the Western Expedition!
And the Shen family has already married the Liuhe Fang family, and the food in that area has long been in the bag of the Shen family!
As soon as he thought about it, Feng Yingjie understood.
Cold sweat brushed down the ground.
"So, shouldn't the right to supply food for the army of the Western Expedition fall into the Shen family?" Prince Lie himself said that the right to supply grain is obtained by those who hoard the highest amount of grain.
His heart was pounding, and Feng Yingjie looked straight at Yang Ziqian.
Yang Ziqian's expression was faint, and he couldn't see his emotions.
To the point where it gets to this point, once it can't get the right to supply food, the Yang family will have only one end...... The family is ruined!
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, Feng Yingjie's face turned pale.
He muttered to himself: "When I heard that Shen Huaiyu unexpectedly married the Fang family, everyone laughed at him for not being able to see it like this, it turned out that he had already expected today's situation!" ”
I just landed a son in Liuhe early!
However, his uncle didn't realize that the situation was wrong until not long ago, and after discussing it, the eldest master hurriedly went to the capital to inquire about the news...... Everyone is right, in terms of vision, his uncle is indeed a cut below Shen Huaiyu.
Now that the Shen family has become a big trend, can they still redeem it?
A strong sense of uneasiness welled up in his heart, a feeling he had never felt since Feng Yingjie took the helm of the vast trading house.
The Yang family ...... this time Is it really going to be over?
There was a strange silence in the air.
I only heard the sound of five fingers hitting the tabletop, and the rhythm was very pleasant.
"High prestige...... Right. The slapping stopped abruptly, "Prestige is the accumulation of popularity." Quietly staring at Zhao Qing's statue on the table, Yang Ziqian's fingertips gently crossed her emerald feather-like curved eyebrows, "Against me Yang Ziqian, even if it is an immortal, I will beat him into the mortal dust!" The sound of gold and stone striking each other revealed a confident domineering.
He suddenly rolled up the portrait.
"Uncle!" Yang Shantang and Feng Yingjie are all excited.
"Find a few daughters-in-law who can speak well, and spread the news that the eldest lady of the Fang family is unmarried and pregnant." If Shen Huaiyu was here, he really wouldn't be sure to do this to deal with the narrow-minded Shen Huaijie...... Hum.
A cold smile flashed in Yang Ziqian's eyes.
Looking at Yang Ziqian in a daze, Yang Shantang's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Uncle, this idea is high!" Feng Yingjie had already laughed loudly, "My daughter has done this kind of thing, I see how he will raise his head in Liuhe Town, and what prestige he has!" ”
As long as the Fang family's reputation is discredited, it will depend on personal means to determine who will spend the grain in the Liuhe area.
******
Rumors spread like wings.
Swing across the town of Willow River. Fang Ping'an, who was respected as "Master Fang" everywhere, became a street rat overnight, and the price that had been negotiated with President Han was pressed again and again.
Only two taels of silver are given for one acre of land?
Joke, there is no such price in a disaster year!
As soon as he stepped into the door, Fang Ping'an, whose face was blue, slammed his fist on the table.
“…… Han Guanghui, this bastard! ”
"Don't take the opportunity to lower prices. He's not President Han anymore! He Chaojun, who was following him, persuaded bitterly with a pale face, "I'm so angry, Sister Hengzhi and brother-in-law want to move out, and my brother-in-law must want to open some." ”
Seeing her husband and brother like this.
No need to ask, Mrs. Fang also knew what was going on.
Moment. Her face was dead.
Thousands of calculations, how could they not have thought that they would pick up a pregnant woman who was pregnant with Liujia, and her reputation was so bad overnight, what kind of face did she have to go out to meet people?
A sluggish and heavy breath echoed in the air......
And in the general number of Gulan Town in the Shen family's Yushengtang, there was a sense of surprise and joy.
"Fang Ping'an wants to sell land?" Shen Huaijie stood up suddenly.
“…… What Chairman Han said himself is absolutely true! The personal servant who had just returned from Liuhe Town nodded and told what happened in Liuhe Town, "Look at what this means, I can't stay anymore!" ”
"Great!"
The five fingers were clenched rattling, and Shen Huaijie circled around the ground like a fly without a head.
turned around the room, and his eyes were dizzy.
He really didn't understand. What does the Fang family's sale of houses and land have to do with the Shen family?
What's so good about that?
He screamed uneasily, "Uncle......"
"How much silver?" Shen Huaijie suddenly turned around, "Let's buy it!" "There are fertile fields in that area, and he has long been red-eyed.
"I,...... Buy? ”
The mouth of the house opened into an O-shape.
Where do they have any money?
"Ledger ...... I'm still urging this uncle today...... Let's hurry up and transfer the monthly profits from the inner courtyard......" he hesitated.
The monthly profit of the inner courtyard has been pressed for more than 20 days, which is something that Shen Huaiyu has never had when he was alive!
"It's all sons and daughters, what kind of cash does he want?!" Shen Huaijie smiled hesitantly, "You tell Master Fang, you owe it first, and then you will say ......" and turned around again. "When I get the right to supply grain, I sell it and hoard grain, and give him five cents of interest!"
"Uncle, uncle!" As he was talking, the trembling voice of Wang Quanbao, the manager of the Hui Office, came in from afar. "The silver has eyebrows!"
Shen Huaijie's eyes lit up.
He took three steps and made two steps to rush to the door.
is catching up with the round rumbling dong, walking with Wang Quanbao, who is trembling and trembling.
"What's going on?"
"Master Qiu of Zhongzhou Fuwei Dart Bureau can raise 200,000 taels of silver, three points of profit, and the deadline is up to us!" While wiping his sweat, Wang Quanbao's words turned, "It's just." Master Qiu requires that the Pearl Pond title deed must be mortgaged! ”
*****
“…… Pearl Pond Title Deed? The eldest lady opened her mouth in astonishment, "That's the second wife's private property of the dowry, and we have crossed the Ming Road in the government, how can we move?" ”
"Father told Mother to figure out a way." Shen Huaijie looked at the eldest lady flatteringly, "This is the only condition that the Fuwei Dart Bureau promised to lend us silver." He added, "Fool the second aunt, mother has the best way!" ”
"But, back then, ......" suddenly stopped, and the eldest lady shook her head vigorously, "No, no, this thing won't work!" ”
"Mother!" Shen Huaijie was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
He patiently lowered his voice, "Master Fang came forward, those grain growers in Liuhe Town have already agreed to sell us grain, but it's just ......" He looked at the eldest lady steadily, "We don't have any cash!" ”
The big lady shook her head into a rattle.
Shen Huaijie's eyes were red.
He said word by word, "If you can't get the right to supply grain, the Shen family will go bankrupt!" ”
The eldest lady was stunned. (To be continued.) )
