Chapter 32 The Regent Blushed
In an instant, many maids and old women who didn't know what was going on looked up at Li Ziyan, then quickly lowered their heads, wishing they could hide in a cave. How could they see such an embarrassing scene?
When Li Ziyan was brought home to collect the debt, her face felt burning with pain.
A mere Huashang shop dares to ask for money from the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion!
She took a sip of tea and slammed it on the table. She angrily asked, "Who is the shop owner behind you? How can you be so rude? How can my huge Jing'an Marquis Mansion still default on payments?!"
She only thought that her family was powerful, but she never thought that to be able to open the most popular clothing store in the center of the imperial city, the power behind it must be considerable.
The shopkeeper had never seen such a shameless person before. He was simply a scoundrel. Due to the huge difference in status, although he didn't dare to curse, he couldn't bear it either. "Anyway, other ladies are very trustworthy and won't delay payment for three months..."
"Are you trying to play tricks on me?" Li Ziyan slammed the table.
"I wouldn't dare. You've only been the Marquis' wife for a few years, and haven't been in the capital long either. It's understandable that you don't understand the rules of the capital." The shopkeeper had never lost a verbal battle. "The capital is unlike the countryside. There's no such thing as a bad debt on credit."
A bad debt is not paid.
Li Ziyan's words, actions, and dress were usually more rustic than those of other noble ladies. She hated it most when people said she was from the countryside. She sneered, blushing and angrily said, "Oh, just because of your tone, I'll pay you back for Huashang Shop next year!"
"How could the wife of Marquis Jing'an do things this way?" The shopkeeper looked unhappy.
"Do you dare to sue me?" Li Ziyan waved her sleeves and ordered, "Show me away!"
The shopkeeper insisted, "Everyone is in the capital. Madam, can't you leave some room for maneuver?"
"Hit him!" Li Zi Yan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him!
The guard picked up a wooden stick and hit him, driving the shopkeeper out of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion!
"What a local tyrant!" The shopkeeper angrily threw his sleeves, pointed at the plaque of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, and shouted, "No matter how great your Jing'an Marquis Mansion is, so what!"
Huachang Shop was given to a girl by its owner some time ago, but nominally, it is still managed by Qin Zhengyu's people.
After Qin Zhengyu learned about this, he casually wrote a letter and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Give it to Marquis Jing'an personally."
…
Su Luo couldn't even manage her own business, so naturally she hadn't spared the time to manage Huachang Shop.
Since Su Luo had some free time today, she went there.
The backyard of Huachangpu, one of the largest garment shops in Beijing.
When Manager Xu and Lin Xiu Niang saw Su Luo coming, they immediately stood up from the stone bench and saluted her.
"Please take a seat, both of you." Su Luo sat down without any airs, which made Manager Xu breathe a sigh of relief.
Shopkeeper Xu looked at Su Luo's face for a moment, then was slightly surprised: "You, you are the princess of the Marquis of Jing'an?"
"Yes..." Su Luo asked curiously after seeing his reaction, "What's wrong?"
Shopkeeper Xu hesitated about how to tell her mother-in-law about the 3,000 taels of credit. If he didn't, the debt couldn't be left unpaid, so he had to tell her. He had just gone to collect the debt when he discovered that the boss was her daughter-in-law...
this……
"Your mother-in-law, the wife of Marquis Jing'an, has three thousand taels of silver on credit in our store. What do you think about this matter..." Shopkeeper Xu was extremely embarrassed and was even prepared to go to the Marquis' Mansion to ask for money and apologize.
"She actually bought on credit?" Su Luo was very surprised. She felt wicked inside, but said with a righteous expression, "No one can buy on credit, not even my mother-in-law. If all friends and relatives buy on credit, how can this Huashang shop still operate?"
Shopkeeper Xu was stunned, but then he felt admiration in his heart. Most people in the world only help their relatives and ignore others, and few people are as clear about the distinction between public and private affairs as the Crown Prince's Consort.
For a moment, he was full of hope for the future of Huashangpu.
"Not only that." Su Luo continued, "I hope the shopkeeper and the embroiderer won't tell anyone that I'm the owner of Huashang Shop. That way, no one will dare to use me as an excuse to default on their purchases."
"My mother-in-law's account should be settled, I won't interfere."
The implication of this statement was obvious. As long as she didn't reveal herself as the boss, Su Luo didn't mind whether someone came to ask for money or reported her to the authorities.
"Don't worry." Shopkeeper Xu nodded.
He has been a shopkeeper for many years and is good at running all kinds of stores. He has outstanding abilities. As long as the boss has foresight and does not interfere, he can make Huachang Store bigger and stronger, and the profits will increase again and again.
"I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. If you can double the profits of Huashang Shop, after deducting the costs, you can get a 10% bonus."
Su Luo gathered her sleeves, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea. Her manners were dignified and elegant, with a unique charm.
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Xu and Lady Lin were delighted and could not hide their happiness on their faces.
Su Luo stood up, patted Lin Xiu Niang on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I am very kind to people, as long as you are loyal and responsible."
"Yes, yes, please rest assured, young lady!" Lin Xiu Niang smiled from ear to ear.
A 10% dividend is so tempting. What’s the difference between this and investing directly?
Su Luo was very satisfied to see that the two of them were full of energy and had happy expressions on their brows.
If you want a horse to run, you must feed it grass. If you want a thousand-mile horse to gallop, you must feed it grass.
Fine grains.
"All of you go down." Qin Zhengyu walked up from behind them.
Shopkeeper Xu and Lin Xiu Niang turned and left. Just as Su Luo was about to ask Qin Zhengyu what was going on, even Qin Zhengyu left. Behind her, someone grabbed her wrist and pulled her hard.
Su Luo fell directly into the man's hard chest!
She looked up in confusion and surprise, and Mo Jin stuffed a soapberry into her palm.
"Wash it clean." The man said coldly.
Say.
Su Luo was distracted and suddenly realized what he said. He said not to let Zhou Yan touch her.
He doesn't like dirty women who have been touched.
And that day, Zhou Yan held her wrist in front of him. Even though she broke free at that time, Mo Jin still minded?
Su Luo's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she covered her eyes to hide her thoughts. She walked silently to the water tank, rubbed her wrists with soap nuts again and again, and rinsed them with water again and again.
Until the snow-white skin was rubbed red and scratches appeared with blood marks.
Mo Jin sat on the rattan chair with his arms and legs spread wide, his handsome eyes looking at her coldly, and he sneered, "If it's dirty, I don't want it anymore."
Don't want her anymore.
Su Luo's body stiffened slightly. Although these words could not hurt her heart at all, she would regret losing this huge backer. Her back was thin and quiet, and she seemed a little lonely. "No more."
"come over."
He said to her calmly.
Su Luo put down the soapberry, her eyes dimmed slightly, and she lowered her head and walked away obediently.
Mo Jin pulled her into his arms, took out a bottle of golden wound medicine from somewhere, and applied it to the bruised wrist...
Su Luo moaned softly in pain.
"Seducing the king?" Mo Jin heard the voice, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and asked her to sit on his thighs facing him, and his big palm touched her up and rubbed her
Pinch the back of her neck.
He kneaded, pressed, lifted and pinched her again and again, and in a trance, she actually fell into
Trapped in this dangerous comfort.
"Your Highness..." she whispered cautiously.
"Um?"
Su Luo's eyes were humble, and she asked timidly, "Your Majesty and I, your humble wife, intend to maintain this unclear, nameless relationship forever..."
The woman's eyes were filled with fear, making her look very pitiful, which could melt anyone's heart. However, Mo Jin, who was so cold and hard, just sneered, lifted her chin, and asked with a smile, "Are you worried that I will abandon you?"
