Chapter Forty-Eight: Leading by Lead
Nian Ruipeng thought he had misheard, plucked out his ears, and asked sarcastically: "I can't afford it, but you can afford it?" ”
After speaking, he glanced at Zhou Yan, and there was no lack of discord in his tone: "Could it be that you are ready to let Chang'an Hou Shizi help you pay for it?" ”
No matter what Nian Ruipeng said, Zhou Yan didn't move at all, and he didn't even give him a superfluous look, if he hadn't held the teacup, Nian Ruipeng would have thought he was asleep.
Zhao Jie also knew that Nian Ruipeng would not believe his words, so he immediately took out a silver ticket of 10,000 taels from his waist. "Open your dog's eyes and see what this is." ”
Nian Ruipeng didn't expect Zhao Jie to really be able to take out 10,000 taels, and suddenly looked at him with wide eyes, "Zhao family...... The Zhao family is not ......"
"Even those three know that emaciated camels are bigger than horses, why can't you think so?" Zhao Jie snorted, took back the silver ticket again, and continued, "Besides, the Nian family is in trouble, if you have the ability to turn the tide, it will be a good thing for the Nian family." ”
"You fart!" This time, in front of Zhou Yan, Nian Ruipeng couldn't hold back, and scolded Zhao Jie, "You are jealous that the Nian family's business is getting better and better, and you have stolen the limelight of your Zhao family, so you are talking nonsense......"
"Then you might as well tell me what kind of business the Nian family is doing, and it is so profitable?" Zhao Jie interrupted him unceremoniously, "This is exactly what I want to bet with you, I bet that your Nian family is doing the business of fairy ointment, this thing has caused people to go bankrupt, and if you do this business, you won't even be able to go to the eighteenth layer of hell after death......"
This time, without waiting for Zhao Jie to finish speaking, Nian Ruipeng punched him, but was lightly hit by the folding fan in Zhou Yan's hand on his wrist, causing him to wail in pain and fall to the ground.
Ignoring the pain in his hands, he crawled up to Zhou Yan and explained: "Don't believe this villain's nonsense!" Our Nian family is the most disciplined in doing business, if it weren't for this, it would be impossible to become a supplier of Shizifu! This is something that the Zhao family has not done! ”
"Whether it's true or not, won't you know when you go back to investigate? Besides, since you are so confident, why don't you dare to bet with Zhao Jie? Zhou Yan finally spoke?
"Okay, bet on it!" Nian Ruipeng stood up with his arm, "My Nian family is worthy of doing business, and it is impossible to have the Nalaoshzi fairy ointment he said!" If there is, Ruipeng will definitely send his father to the son of the world in person! ”
Last time, he had already offended his son once, Nian Ruipeng didn't dare to argue with Zhou Yan, since Zhou Yan said whatever he wanted, he wanted to bet on himself, anyway, Nian Ruipeng was sure that the Nian family had a clear conscience.
Zhao Jie was prepared, and immediately took out the gambling contract, and then took out the pen and ink from the room, and stuffed it into Nian Ruipeng's arms: "Sign and draw a bet, otherwise I'm afraid that you will be willing to gamble and not admit defeat." ”
Nian Ruipeng was squeezed by him and signed the contract. Then he took the 10,000 taels of silver tickets that Zhao Jie gave him, went downstairs and stuffed them into the hands of Chun's mother, and left Chunfeng Building with high spirits. I didn't even have time to settle the accounts of the three little followers.
He thought of what Zhao Jie said so confidently, and he felt a sigh of anger in his heart.
In any case, he has to prove the innocence of the Nian family, so that the prince can be impressed by the Nian family! It is best to replace the Zhao family, and when the time comes, Zhao Jie will not be able to stay in Yuzhou City at all!
With this thought, Nian Ruipeng did not go home, but suddenly went to a tailor shop that he frequented since then.
Nian's family started in the fabric business, although they have also done a lot of other industries over the years, but they have not thrown the fabric shop down after all.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the door of the fabric shop, he found that the fabric shop had been closed for a long time, and the building had long been empty.
He didn't believe in evil, thinking that it was too late, so he came again at noon the next day, but the door of the shop was still closed, but there were people in the merchants on both sides of the shop.
Because this matter involves the foundation of the Nian family, Nian Ruipeng had to be careful, and when he came out, he didn't even bring the most trusted guy around him, so he could only go to the merchant in person to inquire about the situation.
Who knew that when he asked, he found out that this fabric shop had been closed for more than half a year!
It's not just this fabric shop, Nian Ruipeng went to several nearby fabric shops to see, and all of them were empty!
"How is this possible?" He looked at the closed door of the shop, dumbfounded.
These shops are all the most profitable businesses in the Nian family, how could my father close the shop, not to mention that if the shop is closed, where do they earn the money they are using now?
The more Nian Ruipeng thought about it, the more panicked he became, and he couldn't help but think of what Zhao Jie said in Chunfeng Tower yesterday, and his heart fell for no reason.
He immediately went home to find his mother, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "Why is the shop in Guangxian Building closed today?" ”
Mrs. Nian knew her son best and knew that it was impossible for him to go to see the Lin family's shop, so she didn't tell him about it.
didn't expect that one day there would be a leak, so he suddenly put down the chopsticks in his hand, stared at his son with burning eyes and said, "Maybe your father has other arrangements, why did you think of going to Guangxian Building?" I heard that yesterday you spent a lot of money to buy a spring breeze with little red sleeves, why didn't you stay in Chunfeng Building, but went to Guangxian Building to rest? ”
When she said this, Nian Ruipeng felt that what Zhao Jie said might be true.
My mother has always been most tired of going to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, but now that she knows that she is spending thousands of dollars in the Qinglou, she is not angry, which proves that she cares more about Guangxian Building.
Nian Ruipeng stared at Mrs. Nian again and again, and finally said: "My son didn't know that money was good before, but now he knows the difficulty of making money." Why don't you just find a chance to let my dad take me to do business, and save me from being a waste at home. ”
"Where can I use you for those businesses?" Mrs. Nian patted her son's hand with a smile, "Your father earns so much money just to make you happy, why do you still want to suffer yourself?" Did you hear some gossip outside? ”
Facing his mother's worried gaze, Nian Ruipeng coughed lightly and complained: "Aren't I forced by Zhao Jie." The Zhao family is gone, what qualifications does he have to show off in front of the master? Mother, just find a chance to help me. ”
"I'll let your father go to the shop to have a look, and if there's something you can do to help, I'll let you go to the shop to help." Mrs. Nian smiled and reluctantly agreed, but still did not give a specific promise.
After Nian Ruipeng left reluctantly, Mrs. Nian immediately sank her face and called the people in Nian Ruipeng's room to ask what happened to the young master, but nothing happened.
Mrs. Nian muttered strange in her heart, but she didn't know that what she had done had been seen by Nian Ruipeng.
He thought of the three words of fairy paste in Zhao Jie's mouth, and after returning to the room, he took out a small box and hid it sneakily, and when the next person asked, he said: "You group of lonely and unheard of soil buns, this is the most popular fairy paste in Yuzhou City in recent days!" I spent a lot of money to buy it! ”
But as soon as he heard that what he touched turned out to be fairy ointment, the little guy around him panicked and immediately went to report it to Mrs. Nian.
Watching the little guy leave, the strings in Nian Ruipeng's heart were completely broken?
The Nian family is really in the business of fairy ointment!
