Chapter 527: Want to run away after taking advantage

Return to Jingming Tower.

Wen Yan took out the Guanyin painting for the rich businessman to choose from.

After flipping through the drawings, the wealthy businessman was stunned for a moment and looked at Wen Yan: "Do you have all the styles on the drawings?"

"Of course we do. We only make one or two of each Guanyin statue, so they can be considered unique pieces. But you'll have to wait a while, as the workshop hasn't made them yet."

Even if there were similar products, the emperor would have Jing Mingshan sell them to foreign countries via the ancient Tea-Horse Road.

It is impossible to wear the same clothes as others.

Unless those glasswares were bought by foreign royal families and presented to the emperor as state gifts, and the emperor gave them to his ministers, and the ministers risked having their property confiscated by selling or giving them away...

The wealthy businessman's eyes sparkled, and without even a hint of hesitation, he said directly, "I want all of these styles.

I want two of each.”

He was a wealthy businessman from the south, and the people he interacted with were either rich or noble.

The Zhang family has the Glazed Guanyin, and if the Li family doesn’t have it, wouldn’t they be at a disadvantage?

He would buy these Guanyin statues and resell them, and he would definitely make a fortune.

Wen Yan was satisfied with his wealth, so she took out some drawings of lotus lanterns, palace lanterns, glass ornaments, glass jewelry, etc. for him to choose from.

The rich businessman was dazzled and overwhelmed by the sight.

The wealthy businessman wanted to buy them all, but unfortunately, the colored glaze was rare and each piece was very valuable. No matter how rich he was, he couldn't buy them all.

He picked and chose, and placed an order for some.

Wen Yan gave him a discount.

In the end, Wen Yan received nearly 200,000 taels of silver as a deposit of only 30%.

Send away the rich businessman.

Wen Yan returned to the accounting office to settle today's accounts.

Meng Chifei and Ning Tan were stringing copper coins on the small table next to them, weighing them as small change.

Meng Chifei glanced at Wen Yan from time to time, and saw that her fingers were moving the beads very quickly: "Yan Yan's hand speed on the abacus is almost leaving afterimages.

I can’t dance with a sword that fast.”

Ning sighed, "She's worthy of being the richest female businessman in Dayong."

Wen Yan and Chen glanced at each other, then raised his eyebrows smugly: "Guess how much silver we earned today?"

"Four hundred thousand taels!" When Wen Yan was discussing business with the wealthy businessman, Meng Chifei and the others were not there.

Wen Yan shook her fingers and handed the account book to them: "Here, take a look for yourself."

Meng Chifei took the account book and took a look at it, and Ning Tan subconsciously avoided it.

Meng Chifei smiled and handed the account book to her: "It doesn't matter if I show it to you."

Ning Tan took a look at it and covered his mouth in shock: "Oh my...oh my god, I made so much in just one day!"

There are actually... more than 600,000 taels of silver.

The combined amount of Gu Saisai and the wealthy businessman was five hundred thousand taels.

The store was cleared out of its goods and sold over 100,000.

Wen Yan knew that he was good at making money, but it was the first time he felt that he could be so good.

The door suddenly opened from the outside, and King Sun Jirong of Thailand leaned in half and said, "How much money did you make? Tell me too, so I can be happy!"

Meng Chifei pushed his face away: "Go away, children are not allowed to ask about adults' affairs."

Ji Rong's defense was instantly broken: "I'm not a child, I'm already an adult, a man."

"Yes, yes, you are the best. You are the best little man, is this okay?" Meng Chifei pinched his chubby cheeks and pulled them to both sides.

"Sister Chi Fei is so mean. I will never talk to you again." Ji Rong cried out and turned around and ran out.

Meng Chifei was about to chase after him, but Brother Chen Qi stopped her: "You stay here, I'll go and coax this little ancestor."

Meng Chifei looked at his legs and said, "He's very naughty. Can you catch up with him with just one leg?"

"Who are you looking down on?" Brother Chen Qi rolled his eyes at her and walked out with his crutches.

Wen Yan finished the account.

He said to the air, "Please come out."

Ning Tan is still confused about who to ask out?

Just then, there was a sound of cloth rubbing against each other in the room, and a man in black stood in the shadows in the corner of the accounting office: "Manager Liu."

Ning Tan lowered his head obediently, not daring to look at who the person was.

"This is today's sales account. Please hand it over for the boss to review." Wen Yan handed the account book to the man in black and patted a box on the table, "This contains banknotes.

This box contains silver and copper coins. Please present them to the Emperor."

"Yes." The man in black put the account book into the banknote box.

Hold the box in your left hand and the trunk in your right hand.

He tried with his right hand, but couldn't lift the box.

He touched his nose awkwardly.

It was the first time that Wen Yan saw a master from the Imperial Palace suffer a defeat.

She pursed her lips to suppress her laughter and planned to slip away: "Well, the store is out of stock, I'm going to close it.

I'll leave the store's safety to you tonight, and we'll be leaving now."

Wen Yan pulled one person in each hand and quickly left the accounting office.

When she reached the stairs, she suddenly remembered something and returned to the accounting office, where she saw the man in black calling his companions to help move the boxes.

The three of them stared at each other.

Wen Yan explained: "Um... I wanted to tell you that I put a few quilts in the warehouse next door. You can use them at night."

After saying that, she ran away.

She was afraid that if she didn't run away, the man in black would be so embarrassed that he would die on the spot.

Wen Yan ran all the way downstairs, and Meng Chifei pulled her: "Why are you running so fast?"

The masters of the Imperial Palace had the most sensitive ears. Wen Yan didn't dare to say anything nonsense. He shook his head and pulled them into the carriage.

Closing the car window, Meng Chifei suggested: "We haven't seen each other for a long time. Why don't you stay at my house tonight and have a chat by candlelight?"

Wen Yan nodded and said, "Then I have to go back first. I have to tell Ying Zhilin if I'm not coming home tonight."

Ying Zhilin would definitely be furious if he knew the news.

She had to go home and smooth his fur first.

Meng Chifei and his companions changed carriages and went to the Ning family first, and then to the general's mansion.

Wen Yan and Pei'er went straight back to Huaihua Alley.

It's still early.

No one is home.

Wen Yan was too lazy to move, so she packed her luggage for the night out and lay in the rocking chair under the eaves, waiting for Ying Zhilin to come home.

When Ying Zhilin arrived home, Wen Yan had already packed her things and was sitting on a recliner under the eaves to rest.

Ying Zhilin thought she was asleep,

He quietly came to her, kissed her on the lips and then left.

Wen Yan raised the corners of her mouth and grabbed his collar.

Wen Yan opened her eyes, looked at him and raised an eyebrow: "What? You want to run away after taking advantage of me?"

"Then what do you want?" Ying Zhilin looked at her with a smile.

"Of course it's a tooth for a tooth." Wen Yan pulled hard.

Ying Zhilin fell into her arms.

Wen Yan took the opportunity to kiss him.

Ying Zhilin always couldn't refuse Wen Yan's initiative.

Wen Yan kissed his lips, chin, cheeks, and earlobes...

Ying Zhilin's mind was filled with Wen Yan, and he couldn't think of anything else.

He eagerly undressed Wen Yan.

Wen Yan held his hand and said, "No."

"Why?" Ying Zhilin pleaded and kissed her lips softly. "You've teased me like this, and you still want to run away halfway?"
