Chapter 263: Unkind Visitors

Chen Zhanshan sighed, "While your uncle was certainly wrong, you shouldn't have embarrassed him in front of so many people. After all, he's a scholar now."

As soon as the words fell, Lin shook her head in disapproval, "Boss, why do you care so much? That man has no conscience at all and actually wants to seize our property. He is simply an ungrateful ungrateful person."

Chen Qingqing didn't want to admit that it was her fault, so she hurriedly explained, "Dad, Mom, I didn't give them any medicine at all. They really are sick, otherwise wouldn't the doctor in the next village have found out?"

As she spoke, she glared at Xiaoyu with a warning in her eyes.

Xiaoyu bit his lip. Although he really saw it, his wife didn't admit it. She must have her reasons.

He didn't dare say a word and immediately lowered his head to eat.

Lin nodded and smiled, "That's right, my daughter is so kind, she treated them and even endured the nausea to smear cow dung on their faces, how could she poison them?

"Xiaoyu, don't say this carelessly in the future, otherwise Qing girl will be killed by you, understand?"

"Okay, I'll remember it." Xiaoyu nodded heavily, as if he had done something wrong.

After dinner.

Chen Han returned to his room to read.

Xiaoyu followed Lin to clean up the dishes and prepare everything needed for making sugar tomorrow.

Chen Zhanshan was holding firewood to heat the kang. Now that each person had their own room, heating the kang would keep him busy for a while.

When the house was first built and designed, except for the guest room which had a wooden bed, all other rooms had kangs.

Firstly, the winter in the north is too cold, and sleeping on a kang is warm. Secondly, Chen Qingqing also likes to sleep on a kang.

It’s so wonderful to lie on a warm kang.

Back in the room, Chen Qingqing's mind entered the space.

To facilitate storage, she cleared out about ten cubic meters of space in the wild rescue space as temporary storage space.

All the earnings were stored in a corner of the space. Together with the 58,000 taels of silver from selling deer antlers and cordyceps, she already had 60,000 taels of silver.

At this rate, she can live a good life in this era without having to buy and sell materials in the space.

Now she can completely let go of the family sugar factory. In a few days, she will go to the town to visit her elder brother Chen Feng and help him open the restaurant.

She could also start her own clinic, after all, medicine was her specialty.

After finishing all this, it was already dark and everyone went to bed early to rest.

The next morning.

After breakfast, Chen Qingqing was cleaning the house when she saw Dabao walking in quickly.

"Sister Qingqing, the town's shopkeeper Li wants to see you."

"Shopkeeper Li, which shopkeeper Li?"

"That's Mr. Li from Li's Grocery Store."

"Is it him?"

Chen Qingqing suddenly remembered that the first place she sold brown sugar to was Li Ji Grocery Store.

But the shopkeeper Li was cunning and had no integrity in business, so we did not cooperate with him.

Later, I met this person in town several times and expressed my desire to purchase goods from her.

But she had already signed a contract with Liuji Grocery Store, which prohibited her from selling the goods to other stores within three years, so she politely declined.

Shopkeeper Li made a surprise visit today, presumably to discuss purchasing some goods...

Thinking of this, Chen Qingqing shook her head and smiled, "Let's go, I'll go see what he wants."

"Sister Qingqing, those people seem to be here with ill intentions?"

"What's wrong?"

"Shopkeeper Li brought over a dozen people, led by the town's butcher, Li the Butcher. They kept saying they wanted to see you. They were all ferocious and evil, and you couldn't tell they were good people. That's why my uncle asked me to tell you to go out and hide."

"Don't be afraid. I have nothing to do with them. They don't dare to do anything to me. Let's go out and see what they want to do."

Tangfang.

"Where is your boss? Call her out immediately. We have a business deal we want to discuss with her."

The leader, Li the Butcher, stood at the door, shouting like a scoundrel.

Chen Zhanshan stepped forward and said, "My daughter is not here today. Tell me if you have anything."

"I'm telling you, can you make the decision?" Li the butcher sneered. "Although you are the head of the family, everyone in Nanshan Village knows that your family is headed by a grown woman. You, you can't even make a shitty decision."

As soon as he finished speaking, more than ten of his men burst into laughter and started to ridicule him.

"It's really strange. A good family actually lets a young girl be the head of the family. She even dares to tell him if you have anything to say. Who does he think he is?"

"That's right, a grown man can't even be the master. He might as well be pissed to death!"

"Hahaha, this is called the dominance of yin and the decline of yang! The daughter is in charge, and the father stands aside. This is truly unique in the Daning Dynasty, and it's not shameful."

"I think he's just a gigolo. Why is he still pretending to be so great? Get out of here right now."

Chen Zhanshan didn't take these rogue's words to heart. Just when he was about to speak, he saw Chen Qingqing coming over and hurried forward.

"Qing girl, these people are obviously here to cause trouble. Go back quickly. Dad can handle it."

"Dad, don't worry, leave this to me."

Shopkeeper Li saw Chen Qingqing and stepped forward with a smile on his face. He said, "Miss Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are really more charming and beautiful."

Chen Qingqing chuckled, "Shopkeeper Li, I wonder why you're here today?"

"Miss Chen, I came here to discuss the purchase of goods. As long as you are willing to supply me with goods, the price can be negotiated."

"I'm really sorry, I have a contract with Liu's Grocery Store and can only supply him for three years. If Shopkeeper Li is interested in cooperating, we can talk again in three years."

Although Manager Li was very angry about these words, he did not forget the purpose of his visit. He suppressed his anger and pretended to be calm.

But before he could say anything, Li the Butcher got angry and said, "You little bastard, do you know how to talk? My cousin is trying to talk to you in a nice way, but you just disagree as soon as you open your mouth? Do you believe I'll spank you?"

Seeing that it was Li the Butcher, Xiaoyu immediately stepped forward and blocked Chen Qingqing behind him. "Try to touch my wife? Didn't you get beaten enough last time? Are you looking for another fight?"

"You big fool, I'm just about to settle the score with you!"

Butcher Li remembered that Xiaoyu had beaten him so hard that his ribs hurt for more than a month. He was furious and waved his hands at the people behind him.

"Brothers, follow me and beat this fool to death."

A dozen strong men behind him pulled out wooden sticks and looked like they were about to start a fight.

"Stop it!"

Shopkeeper Li shouted and lowered his voice to Butcher Li,

"Cousin, what are you doing? Have you forgotten what I told you? We are here to talk, not to fight."

"Okay, I understand, big brother. I forgot about it in my excitement." Li the butcher nodded repeatedly, glared at Xiaoyu fiercely, and said nothing more...
