Chapter 399 The Truth About Fang Yi'ai's Poverty Has Been Found

The main gate of the Ministry of Commerce.

Choi Shin-ki and Bang Yi-ae are standing on one leg.

A stack of books in his left hand, a stack of books in his right hand, and another stack on his head.

If it falls, add the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.

"Look at your mother's face, haven't you ever seen someone punished by standing in the corner before?"

An official passing by glanced at it, and Choi Shin-ki immediately started cursing.

"Cui the Turtle insulted my father, I will never forgive Cui the Turtle!"

"That good-for-nothing Fang insulted my father! I am sworn enemies with that good-for-nothing Fang!"

Even when they were being punished by standing, the two of them still wouldn't stop.

They were exchanging blows, one after another.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea...

"Remains, I'm thirsty."

"I'm hungry too."

"I have half a crystal cake here, here you go."

"Why is there only half a piece?"

"Are you stupid? I ate the other half. This half was specially saved for you!"

"Hey bro, wait a minute, I'll get you a glass of water..."

Fang Yi'ai was about to leave.

Wei Shuyu walked out of the main gate...

"A... a big pot?"

Choi Shin-ki stared at him, "You're not spying on us, are you? Trying to find fault with us on purpose?"

*Smack*

Wei Shuyu smacked him on the head with his other hand.

"Do you two even need to be monitored?"

Wei Shuyu said with disdain, "If you can stand on one leg for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, I'll admit defeat!"

You look down on me, don't you?

Believe it or not, I'll show you.

Choi Shin-ki covered his head in dissatisfaction.

"Alright, things are done, let's go home!" Wei Shuyu led the way.

"go home?"

Fang Yi'ai stared wide-eyed: "Aren't we supposed to stay in the Ministry of Personnel?"

*Smack*

Wei Shuyu raised his head and said, "I have a head full of sesame seeds."

"Even if you're willing to stay, will your father allow it?"

"No!"

Fang Yi'ai thought for a moment and replied seriously, "My father still loves me very much."

*Smack*

Wei Shuyu smacked him on the head again.

"It hurts my ass."

"He's afraid you two will burn down the Ministry of Personnel."

"..."

Are we the kind of people who don't know what's important?

The two looked at each other.

He nodded firmly: No!

The next day.

Wei Shuyu slowly woke up.

The two of them slept on the floor next to him.

A toe of Choi Shin-ki was stuck in Fang Yi-ai's nostril.

Meanwhile, Choi Shin-ki was holding Fang Yi-ai's toes and nibbling on them like he was gnawing on a pork knuckle.

"Wei Shuyu, Wei Shuyu!"

Just then, Wu Qiqi's voice rang out from outside the door.

Wei Shuyu got out of bed, saw the two sleeping postures, and without saying a word, kicked them both.

bass.

The two got up.

He looked around, as if observing for danger.

Upon seeing Wei Shuyu, I said, "Brother, it's alright."

Why are you here so early?

As soon as I opened the door, a blast of cold air hit me.

Wei Shuyu unconsciously wrapped his clothes tighter around himself.

"Wei Shuyu, I'm leaving."

Um?

Wei Shuyu looked at Wu Qiqi with a puzzled expression.

"My dad and I have been in Chang'an for half a year, and we're going home."

Wei Shuyu understood.

Wu Shihu did not go home for the New Year, which already gave the retired emperor enough face.

"Ah, Qiqi, you can't leave!"

Choi Shin-ki greeted him, saying, "You are the strategist of our Imperial Academy army. If you leave, who will advise us?"

"That's right, that's right..."

Fang Yi'ai chimed in, "Those brats admire no one but you."

Wu Qiqi did not reply.

With his hands behind his back, he looked at Wei Shuyu expectantly: "Wei Shuyu, aren't you going to try to keep me here?"

"It's right for you to go home."

To everyone's surprise, Wei Shuyu replied with a serious expression, "If we force you to stay, people will say that my Wei family is selfish."

snort.

Wu Qiqi stomped her foot in anger.

Wei Shuyu seemed to realize he had misspoke, and immediately corrected himself...

Actually, I don't want you to leave either.

"But have you ever heard a saying..."

"A brief separation is for a better reunion."

Wei Shuyu launched into a rapid-fire explanation.

Wu Qiqi then stopped crying and started laughing.

"Okay, I forgive you."

Wu Qiqi waved her hand magnanimously.

"Qiqi, you're leaving, so we have to give you a send-off."

"Let's go to Cuiyun Residence."

"Yes, the remains will treat us to a meal!"

Fang Yi'ai was unhappy.

Why should I treat?

"Because you're poor?"

"Does being poor mean you should treat others to meals?"

"If you don't treat me, I won't lend you money again!"

"..."

So is that why I'm getting poorer and poorer?

Along the way.

The three of them chattered away, as if they had endless topics to discuss.

Cuiyun Residence.

When the shopkeeper saw Wei Shuyu and his companions, he immediately came to greet them.

"This humble servant greets the three officials." The shopkeeper bowed warmly.

"Bring me the best of everything, from the finest wine to the finest food!"

Fang Yi'ai shouted with his head held high and chest out.

"This...that..." The shopkeeper looked troubled.

"What? You're worried I'll owe you money?"

Fang Yi'ai glared and said, "Let me tell you, the dividends from Wenyun Pavilion have arrived in my account. I'm rolling in money!"

"real?"

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he pulled out a bill: "Then, please settle the debt from last month."

Debts owed?

Fang Yi'ai was stunned.

When I took the bill, I saw that it was seventy-six strings of cash.

"Bullshit!"

Fang Yi'ai handed the bill back: "I was so busy last month that I didn't even have time to rest. I didn't even come to Cuiyun Residence. How did I end up in debt?"

"Wang sighed."

Choi Sin-ki immediately stepped forward and said, "You're even trying to extort money from my brother. I think you don't want to keep your Cuiyun Residence open anymore."

The manager of Cuiyunju wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Please, gentlemen, do not act rashly. Let me explain slowly."

The shopkeeper unfolded the bill: "Look at this one, it's owed by Physician Wei. He made it clear before that the debt would be recorded under the landlord's name."

"And this last debt is owed by you, Chief Clerk Cui."

"You said the landlord is your best friend, so what's wrong with putting your property under his account?"

"There's also this debt, which was incurred by Young Master Shandao. He and Yuchi Xiang secretly came to Cuiyun Residence without any money, so they said they would register the property under the name of the property manager."

"And there's this one debt, owed by Young Master Wang Xiu, he said..."

"Let's discuss this at Cuiyunju."

"Since you all have shares in Wenyunge and have a close relationship with you, the landlord, I agree."

Holy crap!

Holy crap!

Holy crap!

The truth has come out.

I told myself that I've been saving every penny every month, so why am I accumulating more and more debt?

It turns out there were too many parasites around him.

"Remains, don't be angry."

Choi Shin-ki pounded Fang Yi-ai's chest: "What's our relationship? It's okay for you to treat me to a meal, right?"

Screw you, it's fine.

Fang Yi'ai grabbed a stool from Cuiyunju and smashed it at Cui Shenji.

Fortunately, Choi Shin-ki got away quickly...

“The remains, let’s talk this out. I’ll just return them to you.” Choi Shin-ki said, turning around.

"return?"

Is this a matter of repayment?

Fang Yi'ai looked up to the sky and roared: "This is my lifelong reputation, Fang Yi'ai's reputation!"

"Cough cough..."

Wei Shuyu coughed.

Swish.

Fang Yi'ai looked at Wei Shuyu, his gaze quickly turning to one of resentment.

"Alright... don't be angry anymore."

Wei Shuyu replied awkwardly, "We've gone too far this time."

"Big brother..."

Fang Yi'ai's eyes gleamed with grievance: "Do you know how much I've endured these past few days!"

"I wish I could break a steamed bun in half to eat it."

"I have to mooch off other people's meals."

“They’re so talkative and nagging; it’s been so long since I’ve seen them.”

Hearing Fang Yi'ai's complaints, Wei Shuyu also felt guilty.

I glanced at the bills, and he had the most outstanding debts.

"How about this..."

Wei Shuyu thought for a moment and said, "Don't you all want me to sell candy?"

"Then let's sell it."

"I'll give you more shares this time."

Sugar's shares?

Fang Yi'ai's eyes lit up.

Sugar sales were inevitable.

Take the Imperial College army, for example, who doesn't like to eat?

If this product were handled by the Ministry of Commerce, it would be sold throughout the entire Tang Dynasty…

That's fucking lucrative; it's faster than robbery.

"Brother, you're too kind."

Fang Yi'ai rubbed his hands together and chuckled, "I don't need many shares, just a little more than Shenji will do."

Turning around, Fang Yi'ai shouted at everyone...

"Today's entire bill is on me, Young Master Fang!"

Wow.

The entire audience erupted in cheers.

One by one, they clasped their hands in a fist salute to Fang Yi'ai.

Fang Yi'ai held his head high, like a victorious rooster.

We're about to become millionaires!

afternoon……

Wu Qiqi then left.

They were supposed to leave right after the New Year, but because of Wei Zheng's harboring of Li Chengyi, they were delayed for several days.

On this day, Wei Shuyu was handling matters at the Ministry of Commerce.

A figure rushed in...

"Big brother, something bad has happened!"

Why are you here?

Wei Shuyu was puzzled, never expecting that it would be Qin Shandao who came.

"Big brother, something's happened."

Qin Shandao was extremely anxious, pacing back and forth in a panic.

"If something goes wrong, it goes wrong. Can you stop spinning around like that?"

Wei Shuyu remained silent.

Where did you develop such a bad habit?

"It's Sister Qiqi! She's been kidnapped!"
