Chapter 309: Letter from the Xiang Family

"Sir...... Master...... There is an urgent letter! ”

Five days later, Xianyang City, Cui's house.

The butler waved an urgent letter and hurried into the yard.

"Uncle Cheng, what kind of letter? So anxious! ”

In the courtyard, Cui Cheng was yawning, sitting on a stone bench basking in the sun, and asking lazily.

Since Xiao Zhengtai's barbecue restaurant opened, the business of their restaurant has plummeted, and gradually, there is not even a single customer!

Even his friends ran to the other side, saying that it was a delicacy in the world!

If he wasn't afraid that his old man would know about breaking his leg, he would also want to try it!

Now that the restaurant has no business, he has lost a lot of money, and he doesn't dare to open his mouth to ask for money to visit the Qinglou, so he has to be confined to his home and have nothing to do!

"I don't know, it's an urgent letter, and it's ...... Or was shot at the gate by an arrow! ”

If it was just an urgent letter, the housekeeper would not be so flustered.

The point is that this arrow was shot by a sharp arrow, which is terrifying!

Their Cui family has always had no contact with the rivers and lakes, for no reason, how could someone use a sharp arrow to send a letter?

Could it be that it was a thief blackmailing, or some kind of people in the rivers and lakes who wanted to attack their Cui family?

Thinking of this, Cui Cheng was so frightened, explained two sentences in a panic, and ran towards the house in a hurry!

Now that the leaves are yellow, autumn is coming, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is very large.

In addition, there is no business in the restaurant under the high-priced plate, which makes Cui Jingtong's health even worse, and he will not go out of the house for a few days.

Eating, drinking, and Lazar are all settled in the house.

As soon as you enter the door, the stench in the house hits your nose!

No way, Cui Cheng is a housekeeper, even if he doesn't want to enter, he has to enter, and what he earns is this money!

"Master, ...... master?"

Seeing Cui Jingtong's depressed expression, he didn't know whether he was asleep or fainted, and the housekeeper called softly.

"Huh?"

After receiving a response, the housekeeper's heart was relieved and he continued: "When I just went out, I found a sharp arrow inserted in the door panel, and this urgent letter, I don't know what the content is, I don't dare to delay, so I hurriedly sent it!" ”

disturbed the master's sleep, Cui Cheng was afraid of being scolded, so he hurriedly explained.

"Urgent letter? Or was it stuck in the door panel with a sharp arrow? ”

Hearing this, Cui Jingtong struggled and sat up with the help of the housekeeper.

"Yes, sir, take a look!"

The butler panicked and stuffed the letter into the master's hand.

Cui Jingtong had been lying on the bed for many days, with no strength on his body, he tore open the letter tremblingly, and simply glanced at the contents of the letter, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Looking at the smile that suddenly appeared on the old man's face, the housekeeper suddenly felt a little weird!

Cui Sheng hid curiously at the door, wanting to eavesdrop on the contents.

If there is any danger, he should protect himself first!

But he didn't move for a long time, and he was in a hurry, and he didn't know what was going on inside!

I was afraid that I would be scolded for rushing in, so I could only wait patiently!

"Master, what does the letter say?"

"Do you know the old Chu Xiang clan?"

Cui Jingtong smiled and did not answer the rhetorical question.

"The Xiang clan? Forehead...... Could it be the general of Chu State, Xiang Yan's clansman? ”

Although the housekeeper was only a civilian, after the Qin soldiers returned from the victory, the whole process of the attack on Chu had spread rapidly.

Especially in Xianyang, the people spread it even more evilly, and everyone praised Wang Qian's heroism.

It was because of this that he knew that there was a general in the State of Chu, called Xiang Yan!

"That's right, Xiang Yan died, after the state of Chu was broken, the Xiang clan moved around, and now settled in Pengcheng, ready to unite the nobles of the six countries to fight against Qin together!"

Cui Jingtong did not hide anything, and informed the housekeeper of all the contents of the letter.

Now, the Cui family is down, many family servants have left, and the rest are old people, and he is more trusting!

As everyone knows, these old people can't find any decent jobs when they go out, and they have no strength to farm, so they can only continue to mix here, working day by day to earn money!

Cui Jingtong's body is getting worse and worse, and his head is not as flexible as before, and this kind of head-losing thing is also directly said!

"Anti-...... Anti...... Anti...... Anti...... Anti-Qin? ”

Who knows, after hearing these words, the housekeeper's feet softened and almost fell to the ground.

The lips don't obey and stammer!

"People are anti-Qin, what are you afraid of?"

Cui Jingtong glanced at him and was angry.

"That'...... What about this letter? ”

Cui Cheng always felt that the letter inserted by the arrow feather on the door panel must not be a good thing, but he didn't expect it to be a matter of losing his head.

"Now that Xiang Yan is dead, the Xiang clan has moved to Pengcheng, ready to wait for an opportunity to rebel, but Ying Feiyu's kid always comes up with some strange things, which makes Daqin develop rapidly, makes our business plummet, and at the same time makes them have no idea where to start, so they think of a way to ......!"

After a pause, Cui Jingtong continued: "The Xiang clan has concluded that this year must be a cold winter, and they want to join forces with us to buy Daqin's fur, and when the natural disaster comes, the people are full of complaints, and they will rebel, and the chances of victory are even greater!" ”

"Master, can you ...... But this has fulfilled them, and we are not profitable! ”

The housekeeper has always been by Cui Jingtong's side, and he has also been tainted with the habits of many businessmen.

But anything that is unprofitable, he will not do it!

"Humph! Who says unprofitable ......? ”

Cui Jingtong snorted coldly, "That kid suppresses us everywhere, so that our Cui family has no way out, and when the anti-Qin is successful, that kid will become a prisoner, and he won't have a good life, when the time comes, we will be great heroes, and we will have no business to do in the future?" ”

"Yes...... But what if it fails? ”

The butler's heart was pounding.

He is an ordinary ordinary person, and he really never thought of participating in the rebellion!

I thought I was being targeted by a thief or something, but I didn't expect it to be a thief!

It's so much scarier than a bandit!

"Failure? Even if we fail, nothing will happen to us! ”

"We're just paying some money, and we don't need to show up, no one will know!"

"Besides, even if they fail to raise troops, we still have fur in hand!"

"In the cold winter of the fur shortage, it will definitely be sold at a good price, not to mention that it will be a return to the capital, and you can make a lot of money if you can't keep it!"

Thinking of this, Cui Jingtong suddenly came to his senses, even if he didn't lean on the bed, he could sit.

"Daddy! This is a good idea, now it has just entered autumn, the fur is not expensive, and when the people can't buy the fur in the winter, they will sell it, and they will definitely make a lot of money, and then our family will have money again! ”

At this moment, Cui Sheng, who had been eavesdropping at the door, suddenly rushed in with a grin.

During this time, the restaurant had no business, and his father refused to give him pocket money on the grounds that the family's business was sluggish.

He hadn't been to Yichun Courtyard for half a month.

A few days ago, he bumped into Miss Liu Cui, who had been with him before, and now he was snuggling in the arms of another rich boy and smiling.

This made him angry, and he wanted to go up to theorize with his arms and sleeves rolled up.

I didn't know that Liu Cui didn't look at him squarely, and said that if she didn't pick up customers, then take the money!
