At this moment, Sheng Shi suddenly ran in and said breathlessly: "Sister, I have to go to the countryside quickly!"
Sheng Guoer asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to go to the countryside?"
Sheng Shi explained that Mr. Futai needed a batch of cattle urgently. The Hong family had almost prepared it, but they needed manpower. Hong Shiqing asked Meng Xingzhou to help find some people, and Meng Xingzhou asked Sheng Shi to help.
After hearing this, Sheng Guoer had a flash of inspiration and thought, God is really helping me!
A better plan emerged than the original one.
So Sheng Guoer said: "Everyone, listen to me. The situation has changed. The original plan has changed slightly. Now listen to my arrangements!"
First, Sheng Guoer asked Zhou Rui to find Mrs. Hong’s personal maid Mingyue Xie, and told her to bring Master Song to Dongxiang Village. She also told Zhou Rui: “Make sure they take the most difficult road. !”
Although Zhou Rui didn't know what Sheng Guoer wanted to do, she still held up her hands and said: "I know, sister Guoer, don't worry, I'll let them enter the village from Dongshan Road!"
Dongshan Road is the most rugged mountain road in the village leading to Dongxiang Village, where Sheng Guoer is located. Most people would not choose this road.
Then Sheng Guoer asked Xu Shuxin to find Xu Cuiyu and told Xu Shuxin that she must inform Xu Cuiyu about the peach blossom evil. Then Sheng Guoer ordered: "It must be said clearly that it is me who can save the Meng family. The grievances between the Hong family and the Meng family must be made clear. Also, it must be said clearly how rich and powerful the Hong family is. It offends How miserable will the Hong family be!"
Xu Shuxin said: "Why is this?"
Sheng Guoer said: "This can buffer the time for the Meng family to commit suicide. Meng Zhengtang will not listen to Xu Cuiyu in the end. He is an old stubbornness, but we need this time to prepare some things!"
Xu Shuxin nodded, thinking that all Sheng Guoer did was to save the Meng family in the end. To save the Meng family was to save her aunt, so Xu Shuxin thought that she could only coax her aunt Xu Cuiyu. .
Then, Sheng Guoer asked Song Qiaolian to prepare torches and firewood, found Tieniu and used a carriage to pull them to the cattle and horse farm in the back yard of the Hong family to wait for backup. Finally, she asked Ma Chunhua to go to the Lin family bank to take out one hundred taels of silver for her own use.
After receiving the order, Zhou Rui went to the countryside and found Master Song and Mingyue with the token. Because of the previous pine nut business, Sheng Guoer later asked Gouzi to be responsible for this part of the business and sent a lot of mountain products. Therefore, this The long-term cooperative relationship has always existed, and Sheng Guoer's money in the Lin family bank has been increasing day by day.
So Master Song was very enthusiastic after meeting Zhou Rui. Not only did he cook several delicious dishes himself, but he also gave Zhou Rui a lot of delicacies to take back to Sheng Guoer.
Mingyue even accompanied her during the dinner, and personally selected five pieces of the splendid winter clothes made by the Hong family and gave them to Zhou Rui. She also took out a pearl gold hairpin and asked Zhou Rui to bring it to Sheng Guoer.
Zhou Rui didn't expect that Sheng Guoer would have such a business line, and it would be such a "surprise".
Zhou Rui said: "Sister Mingyue, Master Song, thank you for your hospitality and gifts. Sister Guo'er called me here to invite you two to Dongxiang Village. Sister Guo'er said that I miss you both after not seeing each other for many days. I want to be with you two." Let’s catch up on old times!”
Mingyue said: "Okay, I haven't seen Guo'er for a long time. Maybe she has developed enough and stopped paying attention to us!"
Zhou Rui smiled and said, "What are you talking about, Sister Mingyue? Sister Guo'er has been talking about you, but considering that you and Master Song are too busy at the Hong family, we can't let you two leave the business." Let’s go alone, Sister Guo’er can’t bear it! Why don’t you call me here!”
Master Song smiled and said, "The people under Sheng Guoer are all so sharp-tongued. They are indeed a strong general with no weak soldiers!"
Zhou Rui cupped her hands and said, "You have promoted me, you have promoted me."
Mingyue said: "Okay, since it's Guoer's invitation, we have to go there."
After finishing speaking, Mingyue arranged some things for the little maid, and then she and Master Song followed Zhou Rui to Dongxiang Village.
As soon as they got on the carriage, Zhou Rui winked at Tieniu, and Tieniu returned the look with a smirk.
"Have a seat, you two. The road is not easy to walk, so we have to be careful when crossing the ditch!" Tieniu had agreed in advance. Ming Yuexin said that if the road was not easy to walk, where could we go?
But when they got on the Dongshan Road, they immediately knew what it means to be overwhelmed by the excitement and what it means to be bumpy and muddy.
The carriage moved slowly on the road, and there was a pit and a ditch.
"I, let me tell you, how did you choose this road, this road?" Mingyue bumped along the way, even talking like a popping bean.
Master Song also said: "Yes! Ouch!" As soon as he said "yes", Master Song immediately bit his tongue, and the pain made him shed tears.
Zhou Rui also stumbled and said: "I, we, this, this road is, the only, only way to enter the village!"
At this moment, Tieniu shouted: "Hey, we have crossed the ditch!"
Suddenly, Master Song and Mingyue felt themselves rising into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground. Mingyue fell into Master Song's arms with an ouch.
Master Song chuckled, and Mingyue subconsciously gave Master Song a big showdown!
Master Song covered his burning cheeks and said, "As for that!"
Mingyue glanced at Master Song with some embarrassment and helplessness, and said, "Get out!"
After finally arriving at Dongxiang Village, Zhou Rui said, "You two, it's much easier to walk ahead. Alas, there's nothing we can do. Our Dongxiang Village is poor!"
Mingyue's Zhu Chai's bun was all messed up at this moment, and she looked like a little lunatic. She said angrily: "Are you sorry for saying this? Now that Sheng Guo'er is rich, are you reluctant to build a way out?"
Zhou Rui said: "Oh sister, you have wronged us. Now that you have all the money, you have given it all to the villagers. How can you save money!"
Master Song said: "If the road is not built, you will never be able to get out for the rest of your life!"
Zhou Rui smiled and said, "That depends on you two."
Mingyue was stunned and asked: "What are our abilities? Do we have to build a bridge through mountains? I don't have Erlang's ability to carry mountains!"
Zhou Rui smiled mysteriously: "You have it. It only requires a few words from you, sister. You will know when we get to Sister Guo'er."
Mingyue thought to herself, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd of fruit?
When they arrived at Sheng's house, they saw Sheng Guo'er waiting at the door. As soon as she saw the bright moon, she walked up to her. The two sisters were extremely affectionate when they met.
Seeing Mingyue's embarrassed look, Sheng Guoer asked with curiosity on her face: "Why did sister end up like this?"
Zhou Rui was amused: "Don't you know she's like this? Sister Guo'er is too bad!"
Mingyue complained while adjusting her clothes and appearance: "Guo'er, if you have money, can you repair your broken road? It makes me look so embarrassed now!"
Master Song said: "That's right, I almost got knocked out of my dinner last night!"
After hearing these words, Tieniu and Zhou Rui pursed their lips and snickered.
Sheng Guoer smiled and said: "Oh, except for dividends, we in Dongxiang Village have no money left. How can we have money to build roads! We still have to count on my sister and Master Song!"
Mingyue asked: "When Zhou Rui came here, he said that road construction was pointing at us, and you said that again!"
Master Song pointed at Sheng Guoer with a suspicious look on his face and said, "Tell me, what are you holding back?"
Sheng Guoer waved her hands repeatedly: "It's really unjust. Can I harm you? I just have a good thing in mind for you two, so I asked you to come over and investigate, so that I won't be in a hurry!"
Mingyue asked: "What on earth is going on?"
Sheng Guoer stepped aside and said, "Come on, you two come into the room and talk!"
After entering the room, the two parties sat down separately. Sheng Guoer said, "Come on, you two have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up, and then I'll talk about it!"
After Mingyue and Master Song finished drinking tea, they both had strange expressions on their faces, and they seemed to enjoy it very much.
Sheng Guoer looked at it and said, "What did you two think of the tea you drank?"
Mingyue nodded, and Master Song praised: "Good tea, really good tea."
Sheng Guoer smiled and said: "This is the Lu Yu tea tree. I have bought the tea garden and will start the milk tea business after spring!"
Master Song was stunned when he heard this, and said in shock: "What! Lu Yu tea tree! This is a good tea tree that is rare in a hundred years. I heard that it is guarded by a Taoist priest. Anyone who wants to get two or two Lu Yu tea must have it." It’s very strenuous!”
Sheng Guoer said lightly: "I have invited that Taoist priest away, and now the Lu Yu tea tree belongs to me, Sheng Guoer!"
Master Song stood up and said, "Guo'er, as long as you hand over this business to us, don't worry, I will break up with the Hong family in two years!"
Sheng Guoer waved her hand, motioning for Master Song to sit down, and said with a smile: "Master Song, don't be too hasty in everything. Just listen to what I have to say!"
Then, Sheng Guoer started discussing with the two of them.
Sheng Guoer meant that the two of them must persuade Mr. Xie to open the road between Dongxiang Village and Xifeng Village. In this way, the tea in the tea garden will flow unimpeded. If it is not opened, it will be very inconvenient to take the Dongshan Road.
Mingyue naturally agreed. After all, just walking was already very strenuous. If he was transporting goods, wouldn't he damage the goods?
So Sheng Guoer said: "So, you two are going to convince Mr. Xie."
Mingyue Weijian said: "But, what should we say about this matter? There must be a reason. We can't say that there is a Lu Yu tea tree that can make money, so let the mistress build the road? This road building is not a trivial matter!"
Sheng Guoer smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will naturally let her choose to walk the Dongshan Road again like you. When the time comes, she will naturally agree! You can just wait here with peace of mind. She will come when the time comes. , just say that you are here to greet and serve me in advance!"
Mingyue and Master Song looked at each other, but felt that this was a good opportunity to make a contribution!
Besides, Mingyue and Master Song didn't know what Sheng Guo'er was going to do. Since Sheng Guo'er said that she would wait for the master's mother to come, and also taught herself how to answer the question correctly, she must have a good plan!
Who doesn't want to make money, so Mingyue and Master Song smiled and said together: "Okay."
Master Song then smiled and said: "But you have to take care of food and shelter!"
Sheng Guoer waved her hand and said: "Spring flowers!"
Ma Chunhua came in and said, "Guo'er! Is something wrong?"
Sheng Guoer said: "Take Sister Mingyue and Master Song to the guest room to rest. See you tomorrow!"
"Okay!" Ma Chunhua responded.
Then Ma Chunhua took Mingyue and Master Song to the guest room.
Master Song said: "Oh, why am I a little flustered!"
Mingyue asked: "Master Song, what's wrong with you? You're not feeling well!"
Master Song frowned and said, "No. When I came here, I asked my cooks to take good care of the cattle farm. There were fifty cows in there that Hong Yuanwai had collected with great difficulty, and they were to be paid tribute to Lord Futai, but There can’t be any trouble!”
Mingyue said with relief: "Don't worry. First, you have made arrangements. Second, who dares to set fire in the backyard of Hong Mansion!"
Over there, Sheng Guoer hurriedly found Tieniu and said, "Is everything arranged?"
Tieniu said: "The arrangements were made yesterday, and Qiaolian has been there for a long time. I will send them back now, and I will take a small road back to the hometown to meet Qiaolian right away!"
Sheng Guoer nodded and said: "Okay, remember, burn! The stronger the fire, the better. And you only need to burn some corners to make it look very hot. Take all those cows with you." Settling somewhere else, I will be useful! After that, you and Qiaolian will burn the cattle farm again and light a fire. Once the fire starts, you will run away immediately! Do you understand?!"
Tieniu said he understood, turned around and drove the carriage, whistled and headed towards the countryside along the shortcut!
Sheng Guoer said in his heart: "In ancient times, Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu set fire to Red Cliff, but today, I, Sheng Guoer, set fire to Hongjia Tower!"
Just wait and see, the fun is yet to come! Sheng Guoer muttered to himself.
