Chapter 29: Really Happy



Madam Qu looked around and asked, "Where's the third brother?"

Xianjin stood up and said respectfully, "I heard that you were coming, and the Third Master went to reserve a table just for that hot dish."

Madam Qu's expression relaxed, she nodded, and looked at Master Chen Liu again, "Business is not good this year. The emperor wants to fight the Japanese, so he has cancelled the spring exam next year. The amount of paper ordered by schools and courtyards has been reduced by half. The Jingxian workshop is our root in our hometown, so we must protect it well."

Master Chen Liu said exaggeratedly, "Look at what my sister-in-law said! Big business has been affected, but our Jingxian workshop has balanced the accounts of the past two or three years this year! And the inventory in the warehouse has also been cleared this year, freeing up money to order rice straw from Anwu and sandalwood bark from Sanxi next year... Don't worry, Jingxian has me and Lao San, so it won't go wrong!"

This year... the account is even...

Master Chen Liu didn't expect that He Xianjin, this woman, would dare to speak at this time. His face darkened and he glanced over sinisterly.

Master Chen laughed innocently, "What do you mean, Mr. He?"

Xianjin's tone was also exaggerated, exactly the same as that of Master Chen Liu.

"As soon as we arrived, hundreds of debts came flying in like snowflakes! Later, we found out that it was because people heard that someone from the Chen family was coming, so they came non-stop to collect the debts! They were afraid that if they came too late, the creditors would run away again, and the money they owed for several years would never be paid again!"

The tone is indeed exaggerated.

There is also a hint of sarcasm in the exaggeration.

Xianjin's eyes widened. "Hundreds of IOUs! We have been the masters comfortably for several days! We are happy, really happy!"
