In fact, Jiang Yifeng still wanted to lose face. The reason why he didn't choose the first path was entirely because he felt that the struggle was too tiring.
After all, it took a lot of effort for me to have a chance to start over again. If I had to work harder, I would be really sorry for myself.
Besides, the purpose of struggle is to make money, marry a wife, and buy a big house...
But now he only needs to nod his head, and all these are available!
Wife!
The most beautiful woman in Su City is still a rich woman who can easily take out a thousand taels of silver. In her previous life, she was perfectly white, rich and beautiful!
house!
When he came in, he discovered that the Su family's house was really big. Just like in movies and TV shows, the servants had to run all the way when they were informed.
make money!
No matter how much money you make on earth, you still have to hand it over to your wife. Now not only do you not have to hand it over, you can also ask your wife for pocket money, which is a huge win.
As long as I don't work hard, I will reach the peak of my life directly.
The more Jiang Yifeng thought about it, the more he felt that the path he had chosen was the right one, and a smile appeared on his face again involuntarily.
"snort!"
Su Yingxue looked at the shameless Jiang Yifeng and snorted angrily, feeling the urge to let her subordinates teach Jiang Yifeng a lesson.
She had never thought that there were such shameless people in the world.
"Miss, it's not good..."
At this moment, Pearl hurried in,
However, the moment she saw Jiang Yifeng, Zhuer closed her mouth and did not continue talking.
"It's okay, just tell me!"
Su Yingxue glanced sideways at Jiang Yifeng, not taking him seriously at all.
Jiang Yifeng didn't mind this either. As a son-in-law, making money was a woman's business. His duty was to carry on the family lineage and wait until death.
"Miss, that bastard Zhao Bingfang just announced that he will buy ramie at a price that is 30% higher than ours." Zhu Er said angrily: "He also said that unless the lady marries him, the Su family will never receive any ramie."
"What?"
Hearing this, before Su Yingxue expressed her position, Jiang Yifeng couldn't sit still, "Who is this Zhao Bingfang? He dares to ask my wife to marry him. If I don't show him any love, am I still a man?"
In fact, Jiang Yifeng was not really angry.
After all, if his wife is so beautiful and her family is well off, there is no way she won't have other suitors around her.
The reason why he was angry was that if this man named Zhao Bingfang succeeded, his son-in-law career would be aborted before it even started.
"Don't call me wife."
Su Yingxue gritted her teeth and said.
"Okay, lady!"
Jiang Yifeng had the consciousness of being a son-in-law. Su Yingxue refused to let him call her wife, so he immediately changed his tune and never refuted a word.
"Don't call me ma'am!"
"My wife and mother-in-law are not allowed to call me, so I can only call my future child his mother."
"Call me Su Yingxue, or Yingxue."
Su Yingxue held back her anger and introduced in a deep voice, "Zhao Bingfang, the third son of the Zhao family in Su City, one of the four most talented men in Su City. His family is in the cloth business. How do you plan to teach him a lesson?"
"Well……"
In ancient times, there were four most profitable businesses, namely salt, iron, tea, and cloth. Among them, salt, iron, and tea were operated by the state and were out of reach of ordinary people, so the cloth business became the first choice for merchants.
The fact that the Zhao family can gain a foothold in such a hugely profitable industry is enough to prove that the Zhao family's financial resources and backstage are beyond his reach.
Mudd!
So reckless!
Zhu'er could see that Jiang Yifeng was afraid, and said coldly and sarcastically: "You just said that if you don't teach Zhao Bingfang a lesson, you won't be a man."
Jiang Yifeng glanced at the talkative Zhu'er, looked at Su Yingxue, and asked: "Don't worry, I will help you teach Zhao Bingfang a lesson, but before that, I would like to ask if our family is also in the cloth business?"
Our family?
Su Yingxue looked at the shameless Jiang Yifeng and corrected: "The Su family is in the hemp paper business."
Hemp paper!
Jiang Yifeng was stunned for a moment, he knew about hemp paper.
Hemp paper appeared very early, in the Western Han Dynasty, but most of the hemp paper in later generations refers to Cai Lun's improved hemp paper, also known as Caihou paper.
However, as papermaking technology continued to improve, the writing function of hemp paper was gradually replaced by other papers. The only remaining use was to burn it for ancestors.
That's right!
The yellow paper burned during ancestor worship is hemp paper.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yifeng looked at Su Yingxue with a smile and asked, "Do our family and the Zhao family have troubles every year because of ramie?"
"That's right!"
Su Yingxue nodded slightly and continued: "It's just that in the past years, when my father was in charge, the Zhao family would have some concerns. Unexpectedly, this year, my parents went to the capital to visit friends and couldn't come back in a short time. The Zhao family would take the opportunity to cause trouble."
Jiang Yifeng disagreed, "The shopping mall is like a battlefield. If I were the Zhao family, I would also take advantage of my father-in-law's absence to cause trouble."
Regarding the behavior of the Zhao family, Jiang Yifeng did not feel that it was disgraceful. We were not saints, so we naturally followed the rule of taking advantage of your illness to kill you.
The only thing he cares about is whether the Su family will collapse.
As long as the Su family does not collapse, he, a child-bearing tool waiting to die, can continue to be a son-in-law with peace of mind.
When Su Yingxue heard that Jiang Yifeng agreed with the Zhao family's behavior, she frowned slightly, but said nothing.
At this time, Jiang Yifeng asked: "How do you plan to deal with it?"
Su Yingxue hesitated for a moment, and said in a helpless tone, "The Zhao family has more financial resources than the Su family, so it is impossible to compete with the Zhao family for the purchase price. I plan to join forces with the other two cloth business families in Su City to fight against the Zhao family. "
"Fortunately, I'm not stupid enough to start a price war."
Jiang Yifeng didn't wait for Su Yingxue to get angry, then changed the topic and asked sincerely: "Do you believe me?"
Su Yingxue felt Jiang Yifeng's sincere gaze, and without any hesitation, she immediately asked: "What did I do that made you have the illusion that I believe you?"
Mudd!
Sure enough, the script was all a lie. How could two strangers trust each other just by looking at each other?
Jiang Yifeng smiled coquettishly, "It doesn't matter if you believe me or not, but you have to know that I have a way to help our family overcome the current difficulties."
"Just you?"
Su Yingxue sounded questioning.
"In the future you will realize how powerful my husband is."
Jiang Yifeng raised his eyebrows at Su Yingxue. Unfortunately, this woman didn't understand what driving was, so she could only continue: "Now that you believe me, this will definitely not work. Let's make a bet."
Su Yingxue asked coldly: "What are you betting on?"
Jiang Yifeng said: "Just bet on whether I can help our family tide over the difficulties."
"bet."
"I won. You are not allowed to think about letting me leave anymore, and you are not allowed to make things difficult for me. You must give me pocket money every month..."
"What if you lose?"
"If you lose, it's up to you."
"If you lose, you break off the engagement."
"no problem."
Jiang Yifeng nodded directly and agreed. After thinking for a while, he continued: "While I am helping our family tide over the difficulties, all your actions must be reported to me. You are not allowed to act without permission, otherwise I will not admit defeat."
Su Yingxue hesitated for a while, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, how much time do you want?"
"Two months."
Jiang Yifeng grinned at Su Yingxue, "In two months, not only will I ensure that our family has enough raw materials for papermaking, but I will also help you teach Zhao Bingfang a lesson."
"hope so."
Su Yingxue's tone was slightly perfunctory.
In fact, for her, this bet is not a loss no matter how you look at it.
If she wins, she can get rid of Jiang Yifeng. As for the problem of paper-making raw materials, she can also find a way to get it. At most, it will only cost more money.
If she loses, the problem of papermaking raw materials is solved, Jiang Yifeng has also shown his value, and it is not impossible for him to stay in the Su family.
At this time, Jiang Yifeng suddenly said: "Give me five hundred taels of silver in advance."
Su Yingxue frowned, "What do you want so much money for?"
"I'm penniless, you're not going to let me solve our family's problems like this, are you?" Jiang Yifeng was speechless.
Although he has thought of a solution, it all requires money, and it is impossible for him to solve the Su family's problem without a penny.
"You only need five hundred taels to accomplish what you said?" Su Yingxue was slightly shocked, with a tone of disbelief in her tone.
You must know that the Su family spends thousands of taels of silver every year just to purchase ramie.
"Don't worry about this, just give me the money." Jiang Yifeng was unwilling to say anything.
"good!"
Su Yingxue hesitated for a moment, then looked at Zhu'er, "Get him five hundred taels of silver."
"Yes, miss."
Zhuer glared at Jiang Yifeng fiercely, then went to the accounting office to withdraw money.
Soon, Pearl...no, it was Pearl who came with two servants, carrying a small wooden box.
The wooden box was opened, and inside was an ingot of silver.
"Uh... don't you have any banknotes?"
Jiang Yifeng looked at the silver that required two servants to lift, and the expression on his face was stunned for a moment.
He only realized at this time that even if sixteen taels of silver were counted as one catty in ancient times, five hundred taels of silver would weigh more than thirty catties.
"Bank notes?"
Su Yingxue was startled when she heard this, and asked in confusion: "What is a banknote?"
"that is……"
Jiang Yifeng was about to explain when he suddenly realized that the paper made by Da Zhou could not be used to make banknotes.
"fine!"
Jiang Yifeng waved his hand, took out a few ingots of silver from the wooden box and put them in his arms, "Put the rest away for me. I'll go out first."
After saying that, Jiang Yifeng left without giving Su Yingxue a chance to continue asking.
