Chapter 262: Not Marrying a Wife, But Taking a Concubine
Jiang Wan remained silent until Xiao Tao brought the account book. She glanced at it briefly and knitted her eyebrows together.
"Manager Liu, I thought you were just bullying me because I just came to Jiuzhou, but it turns out you don't treat my old boss very well either."
Jiang Wan casually flipped through a few of the thick account books, and the smile in her eyes became even wider.
Manager Liu's pupils shrank, and he reduced his presence like a quail.
"Boss..."
"Forget it. Those things in the past are all old accounts of the Ye family. I won't pursue them with you."
Jiang Wan threw the account book on the table and said indifferently, "But mine won't work.
If you want me to spare you, just tell me where Ye Huan is."
Her precise question made Manager Liu gasp for air. He quickly pretended not to understand and said doubtfully:
"I don't understand what the boss means."
"Really don't understand?"
Jiang Wan flipped through another account book, turned to Qiu Niang and said:
"Since Manager Liu is unwilling to cooperate, I'm sure Judge Liu will find a way to find out."
"Sister Liu!"
Xiao Tao on the side suddenly excitedly pulled Manager Liu's hand and said, "Let me tell you, Miss Ye only treats you as a lowly slave anyway.
You don't have to risk your life for her, and she may not remember your kindness anyway."
"If I tell you, will the boss let me off?"
Manager Liu's eyes flashed. The Ye family was usually not very nice to their subordinates.
Especially since they are not the ones who sell themselves to the Ye family, they have always been harsh.
So Jiang Wan was not surprised that Manager Liu made this choice. Her white and tender fingertips fiddled with the bracelet on her wrist.
"Tell me Ye Huan's whereabouts, and we'll settle today's account."
"good."
Manager Liu glanced at Qiu Niang and Lu Shui beside Jiang Wan, and Jiang Wan said nonchalantly:
"Don't worry, we are all family, just tell us directly."
"Miss Ye..."
Manager Liu bit his lip and said, "She is now at Su Xueshou's residence."
"Professor Su."
Jiang Wan was a little surprised. It was really brave of him to take Ye Huan in at this time.
Even though he used to be in cahoots with Prefect Ye, no one wanted to be associated with the Ye family at this critical moment.
After Manager Liu had spoken out, he did not beat around the bush and simply said:
"The eldest son of Su Xueshou's family has always been deeply in love with Miss Ye, but Master Ye looked down on him.
Now Miss Ye doesn't care about those things in order to protect herself."
"He is still willing to marry Miss Ye at this time. He is really infatuated."
Qiu Niang sighed and said that it was thoughtful of him to be willing to marry Ye Huan at such a critical moment.
As a result, Manager Liu curled his lips and said, "It's not marrying a wife, it's taking a concubine."
Ye Huan entered Su Xueshou's house as a concubine, hiding her identity and being able to hide there for a while.
But has she never thought that Su Xueshou and her father are in cahoots?
As long as Judge Liu Tong finds out that Su Xueshou was involved in the interrogation, the Su family will be finished in minutes.
Jiang Wan sighed, gave Qiu Niang a look, and said to her in a low voice:
"The prince is looking for her, go over there and tell her."
"Okay, girl."
Qiu Niang left in a hurry. Manager Liu was obviously a little nervous. She was worried that Jiang Wan would go back on her word and send people to arrest her.
Jiang Wan smiled frankly, "Don't worry, I said I won't care about it, so I won't care about it."
After all, she gave her the clue she wanted most.
And... after something like this happened, if Manager Liu wants to change his job to be a manager in the future, no one will want him.
"Thank you, sir."
Manager Liu breathed a sigh of relief, protecting Xiao Tao behind him and said, "They all followed my orders. I hope the boss will be merciful and spare their lives."
There were several female shop assistants selling goods below. Jiang Wan said casually:
“I originally wanted to keep the people who were useful, but now that you have made your choice, I naturally cannot keep you in my shop.
Since your steward Liu has pleaded for you, I will not bother about these things for now."
Manager Liu wanted to persuade Jiang Wan again, "They are more familiar with the Rouge Shop. If the boss wants to keep them..."
"Manager Liu, don't push your luck."
Jiang Wan was able to forgive them only because they were of humble origins and could not make any decisions.
But that doesn't mean she will use these people who are used to being used by Manager Liu.
"Sister Liu."
Xiao Tao tugged at Sister Liu's sleeve and said, "We did this together, so we should leave together."
Looking at the similar features of the two people, Jiang Wan understood that these two people were probably related.
It would be a wise choice to drive them away together. She never likes to leave any troubles.
"Okay, I'll send someone to take inventory of the store tomorrow, and you prepare the account book today."
Jiang Wan stood up and went downstairs, and before leaving, she reminded him, "When I bought and sold the shop, I checked the materials in your warehouse.
Don't use the same tricks you used to fool the Ye family on me, or else don't blame me for turning my back on you."
If she dares to do it again, Jiang Wan will never show mercy.
"yes!"
Manager Liu agreed timidly and sent Jiang Wan away. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Xiao Tao complained dissatisfiedly, "Aunt, do we really have to pay compensation?"
This is not a small amount of money, and it hurts her.
Manager Liu gritted his teeth and said firmly: "Compensation, we must compensate!"
She has been a manager for so many years, so she has some ability to judge people.
The new owner looks like a weak woman, frail and delicate, but her whole demeanor shows that she is not an ordinary person.
She also knew Liu Tongpan, who might have some relationship with the Princess Zhan who had just come to Jiuzhou.
She heard that the ladies of wealthy families would also do business, but they would send their subordinates to do it. She thought that this girl must be someone close to Princess Zhan.
Jiang Wan naturally had no idea that others would think of her as the princess's maid, so she walked out of the rouge shop leisurely.
I went to the remaining four shops and had to admit that Ye Huan was really a fool. The managers of these shops had all made some false accounts.
Although not as bold as Manager Liu, he was also quite greedy. After being exposed by Jiang Wan, everyone was afraid that she would report him to the authorities.
So they all packed up and left obediently, and Jiang Wan carefully checked the remaining employees.
A few honest and unappreciated people were left behind to look after the shop temporarily, and the rest were all driven away.
After Qiu Niang notified Song Jiuyuan and came back, Jiang Wan handed over these shops to her.
"Qiu Niang, you should first tidy up the pharmacy. I will come to provide free medical consultation in a few days."
Among these shops there is only a pharmacy, and Jiang Wan plans to run it directly because the medicinal materials there are quite good.
With her medical skills, her business will surely become an instant success. As for other shops, they will need to proceed gradually.
Qiu Niang knew that Jiang Wan was an excellent doctor, so she naturally responded carefully and also followed Jiang Wan's example by taking out a small notebook to write it down.
But for some reason, Lushui's face always looked unhappy, and Qiu Niang couldn't help but remind her.
"Lushui, you shouldn't be like this in front of a girl."
"No problem."
Jiang Wan smiled gently, "We are all family, it's okay to show some emotions.
You can't keep holding it in until you get sick, Lushui, when Qiuniang and I were busy, did anyone bully you?"
