Chapter 387: Blue Beauty is a Trouble
Qin Sheng had just returned to Lu Songli's residence in Pingguo County. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his third brother directing people to work in the outer courtyard.
"Third brother, why are you here?"
Qin Zhao rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "There's work to do!"
Qin Sheng muttered, "My wife has work to do, why doesn't she ask him to do it? Can he do the work of my third brother as well as him?"
Qin Zhao looked him up and down.
Qin Sheng took two steps back and said, "Third brother, why are you looking at me like that?" His eyes looked a little disgusting.
"You look so handsome." Qin Zhao said in a sour tone.
He just met Xue Xu, who joked with him, saying that the other man was willing to risk his life for the woman he loved, while their Qin family had a male beauty who was a disaster.
Qin Zhao quickly asked him what this meant.
Xue Xu told him that in order to vent the anger of the Sixth Master and Lord Lu, their Sixth Madam was planning to uproot the Governor Shi Tao.
After hearing this, he was both surprised and impressed. Sixth brother's wife had set up a big plan. She must have killed several birds with one stone, right?
Qin Sheng was overjoyed to hear this. He shook his head proudly and said, "That's true." His wife and the old ladies of both families praised him for his good looks.
Qin Zhao wanted to roll his eyes again. Never mind. He would never be able to live off his beauty in this life. But there was still hope for his son!
Qin Yu, who was studying in Tianshui New Village, Houcheng, sneezed several times in a row.
Qin Sheng asked, "Third brother, are you okay? If you are, I will go in."
Qin Zhao waved his hand weakly, "Go in."
Qin Sheng went in like a whirlwind.
"Lili, I'm back!"
Hearing the voice, Lu Songli walked out of the house wearing comfortable clothes, "Are you back? Have you eaten?" It was just past dinner time.
Qin Sheng touched his belly and shook his head.
"Hongluo, tell the kitchen to make some food and send it over."
"OK."
A portion of pasta was quickly delivered from the small kitchen.
Qin Sheng started eating. Lu Songli had finished her meal and sat beside him to keep him company.
"Is everything okay over there, big brother?"
Qin Sheng nodded.
Lu Songli held her chin. She found that Qin Sheng ate very fast, but he didn't seem rude at all.
"I heard that you returned to Liaodong Commandery from the Southland and gathered a team of 7,000 men along the way?"
Qin Sheng was eating the last bite of noodles when he heard this and was dumbfounded. "Lili, you know?"
The main force is back. He had already planned to tell her about this before going to bed tonight, to give her a surprise and to get some benefits for himself at the same time.
Who was it, who ruined his surprise?
Wait, he probably knew who it was! He had felt that there was something wrong with that old man Xue at the city gate before, and he really was!
Qin Sheng gritted his teeth secretly, Old Xue, just wait for him!
Lu Songli gave him a glare, "Yeah, why didn't you tell me?"
When Qin Sheng and Qin Yan each led a team of troops to destroy Liufu Village in Beizhen, Liaoxi County, she thought that Qin Sheng only brought two or three thousand people and did not think too much about it.
Qin Sheng: "I want to give you a surprise."
Lu Songli understood instantly that Xue Xu hadn't noticed and ruined his surprise. She comforted Qin Sheng, "It's okay. Although I knew it in advance, I'm still very happy."
When mentioning these, I can't help but think of the incident in which a large army of more than 20,000 was stopped in Liaoxi County a few days ago.
"Lili, is the Shi family going to be in trouble?" Qin Sheng's eyes lit up.
Lu Songli couldn't help but touch his face, "Yeah, it's almost there."
This time she took great pains and spent so much manpower and material resources to build Nanyang and help Zhang Xian. In addition, she had two goals to achieve.
One was to help her father take the position of governor, and the other was to redress the Qin family's injustice.
Lu Songli knew very well that with Song Mo's stinginess, only one of the two goals could be achieved.
But no matter which of these two goals can be achieved, it will bring their entire group one step further.
Based on her understanding of Song Mo, Lu Songli already had the answer in her mind as to which one he would agree to.
Therefore, she never revealed it. Otherwise, it would be too cruel to let the Qin family's hopes rise early and then have them shattered.
After her father's path to promotion was paved, the Shi family's misfortune was inevitable.
After all, the seats in the imperial court are all assigned to each person. If you have merits but no position, that's not good either.
It was like a luxurious banquet. Her father had gained entry to the upper class due to his merits, but there was no suitable seat for him at the banquet.
In order to prevent Song Mo from arranging a random seat for her father, Lu Songli chose to kick Shi Tao away when her father entered the venue, asking him to give up the seat under him.
When the time comes, someone will be there to encourage her father, and Song Mo will let her father sit nearby.
Yuzhou, Xuchang
The business of several grain stores under the Grain Merchants Association is booming.
There is no way, food is the most important thing for people.
Near those grain stores, you can see people carrying baskets and walking in with sad faces, and then leaving carefully, protecting the baskets.
In the morning, Che Jiu Ming and others transported their stored grain to the grain store for sale. In the evening, they packed large amounts of silver and money into baskets and took them away.
In the Grain Merchants Association, Che Jiu Ming was already very proud and held a small celebration banquet.
At the banquet, you can see that there are two groups. One group of people surrounds Che Jiu Ming, very excited and active, while the other group is relatively quiet.
After toasting and drinking to their heart's content, Che Jiu Ming seemed to have finally remembered some of the Chamber of Commerce members whom he had neglected.
"Brother Mei, Brother Zhou, would you two like to bring some food to the store?"
Mei Zishan and Zhou Beicheng exchanged a glance and said quickly, "President, we're not in a hurry. Judging from the current situation, food prices should be able to rise further."
"Yes, President, you have a lot of food, so it's okay if you sell some first, but we have less food, so we want to wait a little longer."
Che Jiuming nodded with satisfaction, "You are sensible."
Mei Zishan and Zhou Beicheng: Haha.
Che Jiuming looked at the others again, "Do you guys mean the same thing?"
"Yeah yeah."
The guys who were questioned by Che Jiudian looked at each other with subtle expressions. Could the other party be in the same situation as them?
Che Jiuming frowned.
Mei Zishan shuddered and immediately said, "Chairman Che, if the grain store is convenient, I will transport 10,000 dan of grain over there."
He knew how many of these people were his own people, and he couldn't let Che Jiuming notice it. The premise of not letting him notice it was to not let him think too much about it.
Zhou Beicheng also said, "Chairman Che, otherwise I will also--"
The members who originally surrounded Che Jiu Ming were even more eager to try.
Seeing this, Zhou Beicheng was interrupted by Che Jiuming before he could finish his words, "You should wait a little longer and sell the grain when the price goes up a little more. You can make more money."
Che Jiu Ming seemed to be concerned about Mei Zishan and the others, but he was a little uneasy. Just after he praised the two for being sensible, they started to act unsensible.
Mei Zishan and Zhou Beicheng looked at each other and curled their lips, "Thank you, President, for considering us."
