Chapter 56: Si Nanhou’s men are here!



Before confessing, Xue Jinhan was extremely nervous.

I was worried that the usually gentle Su Luo would suddenly get angry and ask the two sisters why they had been lying to him? !

They might even resort to violence against the two sisters!

After all, a foreign debt of three hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount!

Three hundred taels could crush an ordinary family, let alone three hundred thousand taels!

Not to mention... it's three hundred thousand taels which has nothing to do with me!

Even if Su Luo has extraordinary abilities, he may not be willing to have anything to do with these two sisters!

The silence lasted for some time.

Su Luo slowly walked to Xue Jinhan and patted her on the shoulder: "I know, have a good rest."

Xue Jinhan was stunned: "Huh?"

Su Luo had already walked to the door, but he stopped and turned around to look: "By the way, if you are from Xingyue Chamber of Commerce... you should be good at business, right?"

"Well, let's settle the accounts, right?"

Xue Jinhan answered subconsciously: "Yes... My father taught me..."

Su Luo said, "Then starting from tomorrow, you will learn from Shen Lao San, and when you become proficient, you will be in charge of our account book."

Looking at Xue Jinhan with a dazed look on his face, Su Luo raised his eyebrows, "What? Don't you want to care?"

"No, it's not..."

Xue Jinhan finally understood at this time, what Su Luo meant was, did he handle the three hundred thousand taels? !

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir..."

For a moment, Xue Jinhan was so excited that he almost knelt down and kowtowed.

Su Luo curled his lips and said, "Why thank me? Besides, who told you to call me Master? You are my wife, call me husband!"

Xue Jinhan's cheeks suddenly turned red.

When she came to her senses, Su Luo had already left the room.

Xue Wanrou's eyes were red, and she felt aggrieved: "Sister, did I say something wrong... Don't be angry, I won't do it again!"

Xue Jinhan immediately hugged her in her arms and said in a crying voice: "Wanrou didn't say anything wrong, it was my sister who was wrong, it was my sister who lost her temper... wuwu... wuwuwu..."

As she spoke, she couldn't help crying.

It was not until this moment that Xue Jinhan felt relieved.

What Xue Jinhan didn't know was that Su Luo had no intention of returning the three hundred thousand taels!

Just like what Xue Jinhan said, this was just something the Ye family did to force the two sisters to death. Since Su Luo paid back the money, the Ye family must have other means...

Instead of going through all the trouble of intrigue, it would be better to overthrow the Ye family directly, or -

Su Luo returned to his room, looked outside and murmured: "Ye Changfeng, do you have that kind of courage?!"

"However, from Xue Jinhan's words, we can also know that Tianyun Chamber of Commerce is not simply controlled by the Ye family. There is a powerful force behind the Ye family!"

"Tsk tsk, it really is a series of collusion between officials and businessmen..."

Su Luo didn't take this matter to heart at all.

In fact, Xue Jinhan and her sister were worrying too much. Let alone 300,000 silver taels, Su Luo wouldn't even care about 3 million!

What he cares more about now is the upgrade of the workshop!

With so many materials brought back from the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce, it’s time to upgrade the workshop in Xiaoyun Village. It was used to make salt before, but it’s not the same anymore...

There are usually iron mines next to salt mines!

Su Luo has also confirmed that in addition to the salt mine, there is indeed an iron mine in Dayun Mountain!

This is also a huge fortune!

Moreover, when Su Luo was bored in his previous life, he happened to watch a video about ancient iron smelting!

It comes in handy now!

If he could successfully build an iron smelting workshop, Su Luo's overall strength would undergo a qualitative change!

In addition, we can continue to improve our manpower!

The reason why the overall number of people in Xiaoyun Village was limited before was, on the one hand, there was not enough cash and resources, and on the other hand, it was too ostentatious...

Well, after all, there is still not enough money!

But now it’s different. The Sinan Company, that is, the Su family, has been defrauded of 40,000 taels!

Moreover, Tianyun Chamber of Commerce can also help supply resources!

At the very least, we must train an army with sufficient manpower and strength to protect ourselves before the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce can react!

As for the problem of being too ostentatious, Su Luo already has a solution!

Thinking of this, Su Luo suddenly thought of the training camp led by Zhang Daqiang, and muttered: "I have been too busy recently. I still have to go for a test. How are Zhang Daqiang and his team doing?!"

"You gave me enough money, enough resources, and even used modern military training methods. You can't let me down, right?!"

"My request to Zhang Daqiang is to train those villagers to the level of the Si family guards within half a month. Maybe Zhang Daqiang can give me a surprise?"

Just as Su Luo was expecting, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside.

Outside the yard, Ye Hu shouted anxiously: "Uncle! Uncle!"

Su Luo pushed open the door and walked to Ye Hu. Seeing that he looked anxious, he motioned him to go to the courtyard where important matters were discussed.

"Uncle Hu, why are you so anxious? What happened?!"

Ye Hu gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, something terrible has happened... Marquis Sinan's personal soldiers are here!"

After these words were spoken, Su Luo's eyes shook slightly and his heartstrings trembled slightly!

"What did you say? Marquis Sinan's personal soldiers are here?!"

Su Luo immediately asked: "What are they here for? How many people are here in total?!"

"Could it be that something happened to us?!"

Ye Hu said, "I don't know what they are here for. There is a small team of more than 20 people... They are waiting at the entrance of the village. The leader asked you to go meet them!"

Su Luo heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. "There are only over twenty people here. That shouldn't be our fault! So what are they doing here?!"

Could it be that Marquis Sinan felt guilty and wanted to care about his illegitimate son?

As soon as this thought came to mind, even Su Luo couldn't help laughing, feeling that this was not possible at all!

The only way to make Si Nan Hou feel guilty is to wait until the sun rises at night!

“Don’t be impatient!”

Looking at the anxious Ye Hu, Su Luo comforted him: "It must not be us who are in trouble. I will go over and take a look. What happened?"

He followed Ye Hu towards the village entrance. From afar, he saw more than twenty cavalrymen surrounding the entrance of Xiaoyun Village.

Each of them was wearing light armor, emitting a blinding cold light, and they looked towards the village with disdain and condescension.

Su Luo just looked at their expressions and frowned.

The personal guards of the Marquis' Mansion... they really act like those bastards in the Marquis' Mansion, making people want to stab them with a knife!

Su Luo suppressed his anger and stepped forward: "I am Su Luo. I don't know what brings you here?!"

The middle-aged man who was leading the group glanced at Su Luo and said with a fake smile: "Master Su Luo!"

"We are here on the orders of the Marquis to recruit thirty strong men and three hundred taels of silver. We hope Master Su Luo will give it to us quickly!"

"If you don't give it to us and delay the Marquis's important business, don't blame us for not respecting you!"
