When Su Qingluan said this, everyone present focused their attention on her.

Yaoguang showed an expression of anticipation: Oh no, how long was Su Qingluan going to tolerate these two grandsons? It turns out she was waiting here.

Yan Min was curious: Su Qingluan's words were quite rude. But unlike her anger, this Lady Su seemed to have some...

Yan Min thought about it, and for some reason he suddenly remembered the look on his mother's face when he saw the maids and old women embezzling public funds.

Is it an illusion?

Besides Yan Min, the shopkeeper also thought so.

The shopkeeper's name was Lu Jian. He relied on his brother-in-law's employment in a wealthy family and started his own business.

It's no wonder that as the so-called "seventh-rank official at the prime minister's door", most of the ordinary small families would not dare to act rashly when they heard him mention his brother-in-law's name. He also took this opportunity to make a lot of money by collecting "wooden signs", and of course part of it was also "presented" to his brother-in-law.

However, most of the money went into Lu Jian's own pocket.

At the beginning, he did not dare to ask for such a "sky-high price", but just charged a small "ranking fee". Most people in the store were not short of a few cents, but human nature is always greedy, and the small-scale operations at the beginning soon could not satisfy him. It happened that at that time, Su Qingluan launched the "Banquet" series, which was crazily sought after, so Lu Jian had evil thoughts.

When he heard Su Qingluan's question, he felt guilty for a moment, but it was obvious that his greed for money had blinded Lu Jian's eyes, and he did not notice the storm brewing in Su Qingluan's eyes.

He just felt that he had dealt with so many people in the imperial city, and he was also good at identifying those who were truly powerful. After all, Lu Jian had some connections in the capital.

But the person in front of him didn't seem to be wearing anything eye-catching in his clothes, and his accent didn't sound like he was from the capital. He should be from further north. Could he be from Liangzhou?

After pondering for a moment, Lu Jian felt that the little girl in front of him was just bluffing, so Lu Jian rolled his eyelids and looked at Su Qingluan with a fake smile: "People are born into different classes. Some are born with good fortune, while others are as lowly as ants. It's all fate."

That reckless look on his face said, "What can you do to me?"

Su Qingluan glanced at Yaoguang, who nodded. Su Qingluan was now certain: while she wanted to clean up the mess, she didn't want to harm any innocent people.

Especially Yan Min, she is a good girl, suitable to be a friend. But if you involve your friend in your own "family affairs" and even cause her to get hurt, that would not be a good thing.

Su Qingluan then looked at Yan Min and smiled, "Madam Yan, thank you for your help today. Otherwise, I would not have been able to find this place. It's just that unfortunately, I have something private to discuss with this shopkeeper Lu, and I'm afraid it's not convenient for Madam Yan to sit in. I wonder if Madam Yan could make it easier for me?"

Madam Yan looked at Su Qingluan, then at the shopkeeper who looked unruly, and was a little worried, but Su Qingluan gently held her hand and patted her lightly twice.

Since Su Qingluan said that she had "private matters" and her expression was so frank and calm, Yan Min knew that Su Qingluan was at least somewhat confident.

But she was still a little worried - after all, on the surface, both Su Qingluan and Yaoguang were just teenage girls, and they had just come from other places. They had no power, no influence, and no one to rely on, and they seemed easy to bully.

So she deliberately said loudly: "After all, my father still has a small job in the Dali Temple. If you have any difficulties, just go to the Dali Temple and find my father Yan Xi."

Before coming to the capital, Su Qingluan had asked Mu Xingzhi to give her extra lessons, but Su Qingluan felt that she would not have much chance to deal with people in officialdom, so she just listened with half an ear and only understood the general idea.

However, because the name "Yan Xi" reminded Su Qingluan of the internet buzzword "Sweet handsome guy, Salty handsome guy" in her previous life, she was very happy for a while when she heard the name, which made Mu Xingzhi confused.

Su Qingluan also knew that Yan Min's father's position was none other than the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple.

Although the Dali Temple Minister is only a fourth-rank official, which seems not to be a high rank at first glance, it is actually a serious and powerful official position. Compared with some second-rank or even first-rank officials who are only in retirement, he actually has more real power.

Su Qingluan understood that Yan Min was backing her up. When Shopkeeper Lu and his staff heard the words "Dali Temple," their expressions changed.

But he soon calmed down: there are many officials in the Dali Temple, and the other party may not really have real power. What if he is just taking advantage of the power of others?

Shopkeeper Lu was such a person who relied on the power of others to bully others, so he naturally thought that Yan Min was also such a person.

It was not convenient for Su Qingluan to tell Yan Min now. She knew that Yan Xi was the Dali Temple Minister, and she did not think it was necessary to dispatch the Dali Temple Minister to deal with such a shopkeeper. This was simply like using an anti-aircraft cannon to kill a mosquito. It was no longer a matter of wasting talent.

However, one must still appreciate the kindness. Su Qingluan smiled and said to Yan Min, "Madam Yan, you and I are very compatible, but I'm busy right now, so it's really not convenient. But you still want to see if you can find any bargains, right? Then see you here in three days!"

Three days later, a new round of jam sales began. Since everyone was now very familiar with every delivery route, they had a rough idea of ​​when the jam would arrive.
