Zhao Qing shook his head absentmindedly.

“…… Master Cao resolutely refused to lower the price. His eyes fell on Chunlan's tall belly, and he frowned again, "I'm about to give birth, why are you still running around!" ”

Chunlan is more than nine months pregnant.

Zhao Qing had already taken her leave, and also sent Brother Rong'er's nurse to take care of her.

Brother Rong and Brother Fu were taken care of by Sister-in-law Zhou.

Brother Fu is too naughty, Brother Rong'er's nurse can't look at him at all.

"If such a big thing happens, how can the slave stay still." Chunlan pursed her lips.

“…… Can you come over and solve the problem? Zhao Qing glared at her, "Be careful, your mother and son have a mistake, come back to me to settle accounts!" ”

Chunlan's face flushed, "Third grandma! ”

Seeing that although Zhao Qing was teasing, her brows frowned rarely, Chunlan's face instantly darkened, and her voice was hurried and worried: "The fruit farmers we hire are more expensive than others, and the cost of the peach forest is also greater than that of ordinary people, the slave and maid have calculated it, and if it is really sold for one penny, our 1,000 mu of peach forest will have to pay at least 15,000 taels ......."

Nearly 20,000 taels of silver!

The Dragon Gate Inn has been busy for a whole year!

There is a large courtyard that can accommodate three or four families, and there are excellent sacrificial fields and fruit forests at home, and there is also a large inn with rolling profits...... In the eyes of outsiders, the Shen family is now one of the few big families in Jianing County.

It's just that these people don't know how much debt her third grandmother took on when she took over the family!

Outsiders watched them live a prosperous and glamorous life.

As the big account room of the Shen family. No one knows better than Chunlan about their current constraints.

Pursing her lips vigorously, Chunlan couldn't bear to say that she didn't say "I can't live this year", and she looked at Zhao Qing worriedly.

The situation is indeed a bit bad. It was unexpectedly bad.

While hugging Brother Fu and walking into the house, Zhao Qing's brows twisted into a pimple.

Chunlan led Brother Rong into the house.

“…… I don't know if Chifeng can receive rent this time? ”

For three consecutive years, the rent of the sacrificial fields in Guqian Town has been decreasing year by year, especially last autumn, the grain harvest was particularly good, but the second master was in Guqian Town for more than a month, but in the end he only got back a few hundred taels.

Do the math. It was not enough for his room and board on this trip.

Zhao Qing was really annoyed.

But after all, he is a father-in-law, but it is not good to reprimand him for being incompetent.

As soon as spring began, he quietly dismissed Chi Feng and went to Guqian Town in person.

He also specially wrote a letter to Yin Sicheng, who had been promoted to the Zhongzhou Mansion, and asked him to introduce the new county magistrate Zhong of Guqian County to Chifeng.

These people. The reason why he dared to default on the rent was nothing more than bullying the second master to be easy to talk to, and bullying the Shen family to lose.

If you really can't do it, just go to the official!

For these scoundrels. Zhao Qing will never tolerate adultery.

was reminded by Chunlan. Only then did she suddenly remember that Chifeng was still in Tanxi Province.

My heart fluttered.

She couldn't help but think back to her proposal during the day.

The reason why she obeyed everyone's wishes and went to negotiate with the Cao family during the day was that she did not buy peaches with cash.

The journey from here to Tan Xi is too far, the number is too small to toss, and it must be on a certain scale to make money.

She made a rough calculation, if she collected peaches and sold them to Tanxi Province, she would need at least seventy or eighty thousand taels of capital to turn around, and she didn't have that much capital.

If everyone agrees, the cost of the peach will be on credit first. At least give it a try.

But no one agreed.

Moreover, she only had friends who had done fruit business in her previous life. I haven't done it myself, and I don't know if I can actually transport peaches to the north?

It's too risky.

That's why she's so good.

If Chifeng can recover some land rent, he still has the output of 1,000 acres of peach forest...... Isn't she, can she give it a go?

The thought flashed, Zhao Qing suddenly raised his head, and asked hurriedly:

"A letter from the galloping wind? Didn't say when you would be back? ”

Chunlan shook her head.

"It's still the last letter, saying that according to your instructions, you are preparing to fight a lawsuit with those people, and you want to take back the sacrificial field and rent it out again." He shook his head again, and there was concern in his voice, "It's been more than 20 days, and I don't know if the lawsuit is fought, how is it going?" ”

After all, it's not Yin Sicheng himself, who knows if Lord Zhong will buy Yin Sicheng's face?

Lawsuits are all about time and money.

Nowadays, what they lack most is time and money!

People are sitting on the ground, they are outsiders, and spending an extra day in Guqian Town is a few taels of silver for accommodation!

Ordinary men will not make this decision easily, only her third grandmother has always been so decisive!

Thinking that Chifeng is likely to be delayed in the county government now, and thinking of those majestic catchers who eat people without spitting out bones, for a while, Chunlan's heart was in a mess.

Putting down Brother Fu'er, who was going to play in the yard, Zhao Qing slowly paced on the ground.

The room was very quiet, and there was a suffocating drearyness.

Walking slowly on the ground, for a moment, just when Chunlan couldn't stand the silence and wanted to speak again, Zhao Qing suddenly raised her head.

"Draw pen and ink."

Chunlan quickly took the pen and ink.

Zhao Qing wrote two short notes on the desk and handed them to Chunlan, "...... You immediately pass it to Chifeng and Yang Ziqian with flying pigeons. ”

"Third grandma, this is ......," Chunlan's eyes flashed.

“…… Give it a try, shall we? Zhao Qing's expression was solemn, "It's better than being slaughtered like this." ”

In the next few days, the Cao family still insisted on the price and did not let go.

As the day of ripening of peaches draws closer, the growers are becoming more and more uneasy.

And semi-idleness is also overcrowded every day.

Everyone looked at Zhao Qing with a blank look, hoping that she could give an idea.

Although he asked Yang Ziqian for help, Chifeng and he never sent a letter, and Zhao Qing didn't dare to promise anything.

If Yang Ziqian can't help, she will have to grit her teeth and admit compensation.

After all, there is no convenient network and fast transportation such as airplanes and high-speed trains in the previous life, and this order is yellow, and she can also directly sell through the Internet or personally fly to various places with salesmen to find sales.

The fruit merchants in the surrounding areas are monopolized by the Cao family, and if they are a little farther away, they will go back and forth for at least 20 days or even a month, and there is no convenient network or telephone.

There are also more than 1,000 acres of peach forest, and Zhao Qing is as worried as everyone else.

It's just that her mind is tougher than that of ordinary men, and she is still calm and calm on the surface.

Others couldn't sit still.

Afraid of a repeat of the tragedy a few years ago, someone has begun to compromise, quietly found Cao Zhi, and secretly signed a contract.

Although it is a loss, it is better to receive a penny than to rot on a tree.

Looking at the several signed contracts in his hand, Cao Zhi smiled coldly.

“…… I thought she was so capable! ”

Everyone gathers in semi-idleness every day, and they all look forward to Zhao Qingma's head, and unite to oppose him, Cao Zhi is hateful to the bone. (To be continued.) )
