Li Sumin's little moves did not escape Duan Wenjun's eyes.
"Sister-in-law, don't be formal. You will understand after we get along for a long time." He looked at her with a smile and said, "I don't have so many rules here."
"Hurry up and sit down and eat! The food will be cold soon!" Cuiping also greeted with a smile.
"Come, sit down! Sit down!" Gu Hongfu sat down next to Mo Shoucheng, with a smile on his face, "Cuiping's cooking skills are the true inheritance of our young master, it's delicious!"
The four of them, Ma Xinyuan, looked at me and I looked at you, and finally sat down uneasily.
Ma Xinyuan is an upright man, and he can't let go of his wife's advice.
Not to mention others.
While eating, Duan Wenjun asked about the situation at Ma's blacksmith shop and on the way here.
He asked, and Ma Xinyuan answered, looking very reserved.
After Duan Wenjun left, Ma Xinyuan started to close the shop and did not accept any new business.
All the items ordered by the neighbors were completed and delivered.
The twenty-two hot pots ordered by Duan Wenjun have all been completed.
Before leaving, Ma Xinyuan asked the person who picked them up to take him to the Duanjia Restaurant and handed him over to Shopkeeper Huang.
Nothing major happened along the way, and some trivial things were discussed.
Then, Duan Wenjun asked about some blacksmithing matters.
Ma Xinyuan answered very carefully.
However, regarding the tempering, steel fire and other things Duan Wenjun said, he was a little confused and seemed very nervous.
However, when Duan Wenjun asked him about iron ore mining, he immediately started talking nonstop.
Ma Xinyuan's ancestor once served as the director of the foundry bureau of the previous dynasty.
His father also worked in the Lingxiao City Foundry Bureau, where he was responsible for mineral exploration.
But later, for some unknown reason, he was expelled from the foundry bureau and died in anger.
Before his death, his father asked him to leave Lingxiao City and not work for the Foundry Bureau again.
Therefore, he came to Linjiang County and opened such a blacksmith shop.
Later, he married Li Sumin and his life became stable.
Li Sumin was very worried when she heard Ma Xinyuan pouring out the things that happened before.
She was worried that the young master's family would be tired of hearing this and find her man too verbose.
She was worried that the young master's family would be taboo about the Ma family's previous affairs, and she would not dare to use Ma's heart again.
But she found that Duan Wenjun listened very carefully from beginning to end, without feeling impatient at all, and she finally felt relieved.
"Old Ma, after hearing what you said, I have an idea." After Ma Xinyuan finished speaking, Duan Wenjun picked up the wine glass, clinked it with him, and drank it all.
"Young Master, if you need anything, just ask me!" Ma Xinyuan responded, drinking down the wine in one gulp.
"That's what it looks like!" Duan Wenjun corrected his voice, "In Mount Laoshan behind Duanjiabao, there is a place called Qifengya. Our Duan family has a mine there. I would like to ask you to bring someone to help me. Let’s go and see, what’s the quality of the iron ore there and what are its reserves?”
Ma Xinyuan was stunned. Compared with blacksmithing, this was his old profession.
Before coming to Wangjiang City, he had learned a lot about this from his father, and had also followed his father to visit several mines near Lingxiao City.
Duan Wenjun's voice sounded again, "But there's no rush in this matter. We'll talk about it after you guys have settled in and my sister-in-law gives birth to the baby."
"Young master, since you need our old horse for something, just ask him to do it directly!" Before Ma Xinyuan could answer, Li Sumin spoke first, "I'm from the country, not so squeamish, and can take care of myself. Besides, I'm from the country. , which woman doesn’t have a baby? It’s okay!”
"This is not possible!" Duan Wenjun shook his head, "Sister-in-law, you are about to give birth. It will be more secure if I am with you."
"Young master, if you trust me, I can take care of Ma's sister-in-law." Aunt Zhao also spoke.
"Young master, why don't you find someone to show me the way." Ma Xinyuan finally said, "We'll go into the mountain after I settle Su Min down."
At this moment, Duan Wenjun couldn't refuse anymore.
After all, he also wanted to know the details of the Qifengya Mine as soon as possible.
Duan Daxiong told him that he decided to open the mine because he was optimistic about the quality and content of the minerals.
I just didn't expect that mining involves so many things, so I lost money and finally closed down.
If you want to restart the Qifengya Mine, you must know its details.
"In that case, that's fine!" Duan Wenjun nodded slightly. "The yard I prepared for you is near the farm. The wife of Ma Xiaobai, the person in charge of the farm, is a famous midwife in Duanjiabao, so she can help take care of it." .”
"In this case, you guys will stay here tonight, and I will send you there in person tomorrow. It would be better to say hello." Duan Wenjun continued.
"This will trouble the young master!" A bright smile appeared on Li Sumin's face.
"Young master, I also want to follow the master into the mountains." At this moment, Zhao Xiaoliu spoke at the side.
"Just discuss this matter with your master." Duan Wenjun turned to look at Ma Xinyuan, and continued, "Who do you want to use and what do you want to prepare? Just tell Uncle Gu directly. From now on, you will be the leader in this matter. You decide."
"Ah? Am I the leader?" Ma Xinyuan was stunned when he heard this.
"Yes! You can make up your mind directly on what to do and how to do it. If you need something or how to cooperate, you can tell Uncle Gu and he will fully support you. If you have any undecided decisions, you can also Discuss with me." Duan Wenjun nodded.
"Ma Xinyuan will never let down the trust of the young master's family." Ma Xinyuan stood up suddenly and bowed to Duan Wenjun.
Before coming to Duanjiabao, he was still a little nervous.
But he didn't expect that Duan Wenjun would give him such an important task and such great power as soon as he arrived.
This was something he hadn't expected.
In his heart, he secretly made up his mind to make a clear investigation of the situation in Qifengya to the Shaodong family in the shortest possible time.
At this moment, a guard walked in from the door, leaned into Duan Wenjun's ear and said, "Young master, Guard Luo is back."
"Everyone, I'm here, and you are not feeling comfortable eating. You must not be full." Duan Wenjun looked at Ma Xinyuan and the others who didn't use their chopsticks much, so he smiled and said, "I happen to have something to do, so I'll go and do some business first." . Uncle Gu, Cuiping, you two help me take good care of Lao Ma and the others, keep them well fed and well fed!"
After saying that, Duan Wenjun took Mo Shoucheng and hurriedly left behind the guard.
Watching Duan Wenjun leave, Cuiping sighed quietly. She worked hard to prepare this table of dishes, but it was a pity that the young master didn't take a few bites.
Ever since the young master woke up, he has indeed become very good in everything.
However, while being excellent, it has also become very busy.
Sometimes, I am so busy that I don’t even bother to eat.
Cuiping, I feel really sad.
"Miss Cuiping, is the Young Master's family always so busy?" Li Sumin's words brought Cuiping back from her thoughts.
In her opinion, shouldn't it be enough for rich young men to just wander around and tease the birds?
Why is my young boss so busy that he can’t even eat at peace?
"Sister-in-law, I am the little maid next to the young master. Please don't call me miss. Just call me Cuiping!" Cuiping blushed. "The young master has been a little busy recently. Don't be surprised if I neglect you. We'll get along soon." Okay, you just need to get used to his temper in the future."
"Miss Cuiping is serious! How dare we take offense!" Li Sumin's face changed greatly. "But, if this is the case, the young master's family will have to work too hard."
"The young master said that the construction of Duanjiabao has just started now. He still has too many things to do. It may be better after he finishes his work for a while." Gu Hongfu raised his chopsticks with a smile, "Come on, everyone eat quickly, otherwise The dishes are cold."
"Oh! I am always busy for this period of time! After I am busy for this period of time, I will start to be busy for the next period of time. When will it end!" Cuiping sighed again.
In the study, Duan Wenjun stared at Luo Liangping in front of him, his face looking very serious.
When he heard that the person who instructed Wang Xiaoming to steal the recipe and process of the winery was actually the group of bandits on Moon Island, he was really surprised.
But when he heard that there was a person named "Uncle De" beside Li Dachui, he immediately knew that things might not be that simple.
Because, when he was kidnapped by Guofeng, he also heard the name "Uncle De".
Thinking of this, he turned his head and looked at Mo Shoucheng, "Master Mo, it seems we have to go to Gong County for a visit."
