Chapter 131 Wen Xingluo covets my body
Wen Xingluo looked at him and said, "According to the rules of us girls, the secret we exchange can only be another secret."
Xie Guanlan raised his eyebrows.
Wen Xingluo tilted his head, "So, if you want to know my secret, you have to tell me your secret first."
The autumn sun shines on the girl's face as white as jade. Her round almond eyes are clear as water, and her amber pupils are like a pair of swaying fish.
The fish floated into Xie Guanlan's chest and gently took a bite of his heart.
Xie Guanlan stretched out his legs casually, "According to my rules, if I want, I can use my power and wealth to buy your secret at the Mu family's charity sale."
Wen Xingluo stood up and said, "I won't let my elder brother succeed."
She would never reveal her true feelings until Xie Guanlan made it clear.
The game of emotions is no different from doing business. In the business world, the person who bids first is always the loser. In a love story, the person who is moved first and speaks out first will also be the loser.
She doesn't want to be a loser.
She needs money.
Lots and lots of money.
Jinweizhai elegant room.
Wen Xingluo made an appointment with the head of the Shen family to have tea.
"Miss Wen, are you saying that silk and tea will become hard currency in the future?"
The head of the Shen family stroked the teacup, his face full of solemnity.
Although Wen Xingluo was just a little girl, it was this little girl who rescued him from the capital.
He would never dare to look down on her even if he was beaten to death.
"Yes." Wen Xingluo answered simply, "I want you to stockpile as much of these two items as possible, from Rongcheng to the nearby cities, whether it's supply from shops, tea farmers, or cloth shops, stockpile as much as you can. If nothing goes wrong, the tea-horse trade policy will be officially launched in the next few days. Boss Shen, we have to be the first to try it."
"I'll get started right away." The head of the Shen family trusted Wen Xingluo very much and made the decision immediately.
"Pay special attention to the Xu family." Wen Xingluo warned again, "The Xu family is the largest tea merchant in the southwest. I want you to buy all the tea they have, no matter what means you use."
The Xu family is Xu Miaomiao's maternal family. Once the tea-horse trade route is opened, the Xu family will definitely make a lot of money. At that time, Xu Miaomiao will use it all to subsidize the Wen brothers and sisters.
She would not give the Wen brothers and sisters the opportunity to take advantage of her power.
The head of the Shen family nodded and took note, then continued, "However, Miss Wen, by telling me such important inside information, what do you want from the Shen family? I heard from my son that you are deeply in love with him and will not marry anyone else. Are you telling me all this just to get my son?"
After saying this, he himself felt it was ridiculous.
The girl in front of him was completely different from the girl Shen Yu described to him.
She is young, beautiful, intelligent and calm, and has the support of the King of Zhenbei.
He couldn't understand how a girl like this could fall for his rebellious son.
Wen Xingluo was drinking tea and almost choked on the tea when he heard this.
She wants to get Shen Yu?
absurd.
She pressed the corner of her lips with a handkerchief and explained, "There are some misunderstandings between my son and me that I haven't made clear. I am very sorry for my son..."
The words "only use" rolled around in his throat.
It is too cruel to say these four words in front of someone's father.
She changed her tone and said, "I only have admiration for your son. He's an honest man, not one to beat around the bush, not a scheming person. He can help me in many ways, but I don't have any romantic feelings for him."
The subtext of "honest" is "stupid".
"Not knowing how to beat around the bush" means "not having a good memory and being able to use the same rhetoric to deceive people many times."
"No ulterior motives", means "I don't understand the scheme, so I won't scheme against her."
Why isn't Shen Yu considered her good helper?
The head of the Shen family fell silent.
He was not stupid and could understand the meaning behind Wen Xingluo's words.
But as long as the Shen family can be prosperous, it doesn't matter even if his stupid son is sent to Wen Xingluo to work as a donkey!
If Wen Xingluo is happy, he can even give you a Song Lianxin as a gift!
He smiled and said, "It is my honor to be in Miss Wen's sight. Miss Wen is a great benefactor to my Shen family. From now on, as long as Miss Wen wants, you can mobilize the funds of my Shen family at will!"
With the promise from the head of the Shen family, Wen Xingluo estimated that the charity sale should not be a problem.
Xie Guanlan had to raise troops and he didn't have that much cash to compete with her.
He proposed the idea of restarting the tea-horse trade not only to help him get war horses, but also with the selfish intention of making money for himself.
She wanted to take a picture of the Kongming lantern.
But then again, if she had known that Mu Zhiqiu was so perverted and sent hundreds of people to search for the Kongming lantern over mountains and hills in the suburbs for three days and three nights, she would not have written those two words.
She even suspected at one point that Mu Zhiqiu was so perverted as to look through the waste paper, leftover food and other garbage that she and Xie Guanlan had used when they were temporarily staying in the prefectural mansion.
If Mu Zhiqiu could transfer this spirit of exploration from love affairs to political affairs, she would be successful in everything she does.
…
Shen family.
Song Lianxin was crying in the room, "I heard that Wen Xingluo invited my uncle to have tea and gave him many benefits. I guess she wants my uncle to give you to her! If you become hers, what should I do?!"
Chen Yu sat in front of the dressing table, looking at her reflection in the mirror and feeling sorry for herself. "It's all because I'm so beautiful that she covets my body! She knew she couldn't find a way out of me, so she resorted to threatening and bribing my father to get me to marry her! What a sinister and evil woman! I didn't realize it before and foolishly approached her!"
The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. He simply picked up a pair of scissors and cut up all the red clothes in the closet.
He was indignant, "Doesn't she love to see me wearing red clothes? I won't wear them anymore. It will piss her off! Xin'er, don't worry. I only love you in this life. If you really can't accept her, I'm willing to leave the Shen family and elope with you!"
elopement……
Song Lianxin held the curtain made of soft smoke silk.
If I elope, won’t I be unable to enjoy the Shen family’s immense wealth?
She was unwilling to elope.
Looking at Shen Yu's resolute expression, she curled her lips and whispered, "It's not that I can't accept it... As long as Miss Wen treats me well, I am willing to share my cousin with her."
She had thought it through. As long as Wen Xingluo was willing to pay her two thousand taels of silver every month, she would be willing to let Chen Yu serve her.
After all, she had already enjoyed Chen Yu's body. Although Chen Yu was very beautiful, her skills in bed were just so-so. They had even gotten worse over the past year. It was obvious that men were just like that when they reached a certain age.
It would be better to use it to exchange for her pocket money.
Chen Yu pity, "Xin'er, I'm sorry for wronging you..."
Song Lianxin dug out a still intact red dress from the depths of the closet and gently draped it over Shen Yu. "Tomorrow morning, cousin, get dressed up nicely. I'll accompany you to the Zhenbei Palace to explain the conditions to Miss Wen. And as for that prince, we have to let him know that it's his sister who insists on marrying cousin, not him who's pestering her."
Shen Yu let out a pitiful whine.
He was wearing a red robe and looking into the bronze mirror.
How come he is so handsome and elegant?
Wen Xingluo was so greedy for him that he couldn't help but take his father's shortcut!
