Chapter 35

Pulling the noodles in the bowl, Ling Qingyu filtered it again in her brain. She got so much unexpected money all the way, and easily got Fan Ye's help in Quanzhou. Sure enough, it was inflated too much. In this era, women who set up their own households were originally classified into the next five lives. Although the status of merchants in the Zhou Dynasty was good, scholars, farmers, businesses and industry were still at the end. It was normal for people to look down on the business of operating merchants as women households. If she wants to turn over, the only thing she can do is that her financial power has reached a point that no one can despise.

Financial resources. You can accumulate, run to the sea several times, and then come, but power.

"Yan San," Ling Qingyu looked up and Yan San, who was looking for noodles from her bowl, was stunned. He continued to take the noodles out of her bowl, and then asked, "what's the matter?"

Ling Qingyu simply pushed the whole bowl of noodles in front of him. She liked spicy noodles. This kind of sweet noodles was really not interested.

"Let me ask you something," Ling Qingyu moved the chairs closer and leaned close to him. "Do you know where you can recruit people who are good at martial arts, loyal and powerful?"

Yan San pointed to himself with chopsticks, and Ding Dong, who came to eavesdrop, also pointed to himself.

Ling Qingyu turns his head sadly. Well, I'm blind.

"The Yamen side posted a notice again."

"It's not about the emperor's palace yet. It's the fourth time that the governor has issued this notice."

"Where are so many good logs? I heard that not only Hangzhou City, but also Suzhou mansion have been searched out."

"Normally, with the wealth of the Xiao family, these woods can't be found?"

"You don't know. The palace is required to be built in four months. No matter how powerful the Xiao family is, it's impossible to mobilize so many materials at once. Someone is fixing the Xiao family!"

Ling Qingyu's ears stood up and put a few words of passers-by into his ears. Throw some copper plates on the table, then pull up the two people who are still eating, walk to the Yamen and say to Ding Dong, "Ding Dong, you go back to the ship immediately and prepare to unload with Shen Zhan."

Xiao Cang stood at the gate of the Yamen and watched the officials brush the notices in the notice board one by one. I feel a little gray in my heart.

Although he married the princess as his wife, he actually had no actual official position. He had a good life of leisure and wealth. Suddenly, he came to the imperial edict and asked him to supervise the construction of Hangzhou palace. The construction period was four months and the materials were prepared by himself. The Xiao family had money. Although the construction cost of a palace was a little painful, it didn't move bones. I thought the Emperor just wanted to draw some blood from the Xiao family. Who knew that when he arrived in Hangzhou, he found that there was no wood for the design of the palace at all. Even if all the efforts of the Xiao family in the South were mobilized, it was only half of the amount. Now it has been two months. If he can't get together, Xiao Cang suddenly had a cold war, Does the emperor want not the money of the Xiao family, but his life? If he dies, there will be a bleak son behind him. His son is only six years old. How can he support the huge Xiao family property? As a result, the family property will still be swallowed up.

Xiao Cang only felt his back cool. Emperor Xiwen was fatuous and extravagant. He was about to use up the full Treasury left by the former Emperor. Now the northern drought, the Treasury could not even allocate disaster relief funds. The talents of the Xiao family withered, so he took a fancy to it. Was he the first to operate?

"This official."

Xiao Cang looked at the notice post and saw a woman dressed in men's clothes bowing to the little official, saying, "the little man just came back from outside and brought a lot of wood. I don't know how much the housekeeper wants?"

As the sound of nature sounded, Xiao Cang rushed forward. Before the little official came to speak, he had grabbed the man and said, "how many?! what wood?" Seeing the woman's surprise, he hurriedly loosened his hand, stepped back two steps and said, "Xiao is reckless."

"No harm!" Looking at the young man who was as beautiful as coming out of the ink painting in front of him, Ling Qingyu also said softly, "there are many kinds, sandalwood, ferreous wood, yellow pear. Adults can go aboard and have a look. There are a total of 5000 materials."

"Five thousand materials? I want them all, all." Xiao Cang was so excited that he let Ling Qingyu inside and said, "please come inside, let's sign the contract."

Ling Qingyu looked at Xiao Cang very speechless. How old the master of the fox is Xiao Rong, the boss of his family? Why is this master like this? Then he said, "adults should send someone to check with the villain first?"

"Yes, yes, yes, count first." Xiao Cang turned around and said to the entourage behind him, "Xiao Ke, you take someone to count."

Xiao Ke said yes, and immediately took several people behind him to stand next to Ling Qingyu, making a gesture, please.

Ling Qingyu saw that all the attendants in unified Qingyi were vigorous and looked very capable. He thought with envy that it was really good to have a family servant.

"Master, the boss is back." The voice of the attendant outside the door stopped Xiao Cang's footsteps wandering around the desk and said happily, "call in quickly."

When the door opened, a young man in Royal robe jumped in and shouted, "Daddy, Daddy!"

Xiao Cang helplessly and lovingly picked him up and said, "ser'er, you ran out with Uncle Rong again. Aren't you afraid of grandma's sadness?"

"Grandma followed the Empress Dowager to worship the Buddha." Xiao se rubbed around in his father's arms and said.

"The old lady agreed," Xiao Rong then walked in and bowed, "I've seen the master."

"If only you came, if only you came." Xiao Cangxi said.

"The old slave had a negative master's trust. This time in Fujian, he only received less than 1000 pieces of wood." Xiao Rong bowed his head.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. In the afternoon, a maritime merchant brought 5000 pieces of wood to Hangzhou and has agreed to sell them all to us." Xiao Cang sat on the chair with Xiao Se in his arms and said, "when Xiao Ke comes back, we will know what can be used."

Xiao Rong's heart moved. The only seagoing ship docked outside Hangzhou now was Fengshen.

"Master!"

"Shack, come on, come on."

Xiao Kexi came in with a smile and said, "tell the master, it's clear. Enough. The material of our practice palace is not only enough, but also enough. There are hundreds of large pillars with a length of more than 60 meters."

"Ancestors bless!" Xiao Cang did not feel his palm closed.

"Daddy!"

"Well, ser'er is tired. Go to have a rest first and come back when Dad finishes his business." Coaxing Xiao se, Xiao Cang handed him over to the servant girl.

"Uncle Rong, please go and sign the contract immediately. Xiao Ke, arrange someone to unload." Xiao Cang's face was slightly flushed and said.

"Don't worry, sir," Xiao Rong held Xiao Cang down and asked Xiao Ke, "have you negotiated the price?"

"The master said that he had done business with the big shopkeeper and asked us to give him the price. He said he believed the Xiao family." Shaw replied.

"Well," Xiao Rong nodded and said to Xiao Cang, "it's not too late. I'll go and finalize with Ling Dang."

"Uncle Rong, people have helped us a lot. Don't wait." Xiao Cang chased after him.

"Yes!" Xiao Rong made a bow and left with Xiao Ke.

"Hua Ying, wait a minute. When ser Er grows up again, I'll find you." Xiao Cang whispered to the void, and a faint shadow in the void seemed to smile back, gently pressing his shoulder.

"Ling is in charge of the family. It's really a pleasure to cooperate with you." Xiao Rong's smile was flawless, just as things never happened in the afternoon.

"It's my honor to cooperate with shopkeeper Xiao." Ling Qingyu also smiled and sent Xiao Rong off the ship.

As soon as Xiao Rong got off the boat, Ling Qingyu turned back and said to Zheng Xi, "let's go back to Wu County tomorrow."

"Shall we go together?" Ding Dong leaned aside.

"No, you and the dishes go to buy some goods, silk, porcelain and books. When I come back, we will go to Quanzhou and then go to sea." Lingqingyu said. She sold all the timbers to the Xiao family, but her head was always thinking about what the passer-by said. If someone really wanted to attack the Xiao family, would she suffer from fish in the pond? Let's run first.
