Qin Sheng had just returned to Lu Songli's stay in Pingguo County. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his third brother directing people to work in the outer courtyard.
"Third brother, why are you here?"
Qin Zhao rolled his eyes and said angrily, "I have work to do!"
Qin Sheng muttered, my wife has a job, why not ask him to do it? Is the third brother doing a better job than him?
Qin Zhao looked him up and down.
Qin Sheng took two steps back and said, "Third brother, why are you looking at me like that?" His eyes were a little disgusting.
"Look at how handsome you are." Qin Zhao said in a sour tone.
He just met Xue Xu, and Xue Xu made a joke with him, saying that people are jealous of beauties in anger, but their Qin family has a blue face who is a disaster.
Qin Zhao quickly asked him what he meant.
Xue Xu told him that the Sixth Madam was planning to uproot the governor Shi Tao in order to vent their anger on Mr. Liu and Mr. Lu.
After hearing this, he was both surprised and impressed. The sixth brother and sister's plan was very big. One arrow could kill several eagles, right?
Qin Sheng was elated when he heard this. He shook his head arrogantly and said, "That's true." His wife and the old ladies from both families praised him for his good looks.
Qin Zhao wanted to roll his eyes again, but that was all. He would never be able to rely on his beauty to make a fool of himself. However, there is still hope for his son!
Qin Yu, who was studying in Tianshui New Village, Houcheng, sneezed several times in a row.
Qin Sheng asked, "Third brother, are you okay? I'll go in if it's okay."
Qin Zhao waved his hand feebly, "Go in."
Qin Sheng went in like a whirlwind.
"Lili, I'm back!"
Hearing the sound, Lu Songli walked out of the room wearing comfortable uniforms, "You're back? Have you eaten?" It was just after dinner.
Qin Sheng touched his belly and shook his head.
"Hongluo, tell the kitchen to cook some food and bring it over."
"OK."
A pasta dish was quickly delivered from the kitchenette.
Qin Sheng started eating. Lu Songli had finished eating and sat beside him to accompany him.
"Is everything okay over there, brother?"
Qin Sheng nodded.
Lu Songli held her chin, she found that Qin Sheng ate very quickly, but he was not rude at all.
"I heard that you returned to Liaodong County from the Southland and pulled up a team of 7,000 people along the way?"
Qin Sheng was eating his last bite of noodles. Hearing this, he was dumbfounded, "Lili, do you know?"
The troops are back. He had already planned to tell her about this before going to bed tonight, to give her a surprise, and to gain some benefits for himself.
Who, who ruined his surprise?
Wait, he probably knows who it is! He had felt something was wrong with Old Man Xue at the city gate before, and there was indeed something wrong with him!
Qin Sheng secretly grinded his teeth, Old Man Xue, wait for him!
Lu Songli gave him an angry look, "Yeah, why didn't you tell me?"
When Qin Sheng and Qin Yan each led a team to destroy Liufu Village in Bei Town, Liaoxi County, she thought Qin Sheng only brought out two or three thousand people, but she didn't think about it deeply.
Qin Sheng: "I want to give you a surprise."
Lu Songli understood instantly. Xue Xu didn't pay attention and ruined his surprise. She comforted Qin Sheng, "It doesn't matter. Although I knew about it in advance, I am still very happy."
Speaking of these, one can't help but think of the recent situation where more than 20,000 troops were stopped in Liaoxi County.
"Lili, is the Shi family going to be in trouble?" Qin Sheng's eyes were bright.
Lu Songli couldn't help but touch his face, "Well, it's almost over."
This time she worked hard and spent so much manpower and material resources to lay out Nanyang and help Zhang Xian. In addition, she still has two goals to achieve.
One is to help her father take the position of governor, and the other is to help the Qin family rehabilitate themselves.
Lu Songli knew very well that with Song Mo's stinginess, only one of these two goals could be achieved.
But no matter which of these two goals can be achieved, it can make their entire group go further.
Based on her understanding of Song Mo, Lu Songli actually already had the answer in her mind as to which one he would agree to.
Therefore, she never revealed it. Otherwise, it would be too cruel to raise hopes in the Qin family early and then dash them.
After her father's promotion path was paved, the Shi family's misfortune was inevitable.
After all, the seats in the court are all filled with holes. It doesn’t work if you have merit but no seat.
It was equivalent to a luxurious banquet. Her father had entered the room because of his merits, but there was no seat suitable for her father at the banquet.
In order to prevent Song Mo from randomly arranging a seat for her father, Lu Songli chose to kick Shi Tao away when her father entered the room and asked him to give up the seat under his butt.
When the time comes, if someone else is playing drums next to her, Song Mo will ask her father to sit nearby.
Yuzhou, Xuchang
Several grain stores under the Grain Merchants Chamber of Commerce are doing booming business day by day.
There is no way, people depend on food.
Near those grain stores, you can see ordinary people entering with sad faces carrying baskets, and then leaving carefully while protecting the baskets.
In the morning, Che Jiuming and others' stored grains were continuously transported to the grain store for sale. In the evening, they put a lot of money in baskets and took them away.
In the Grain Merchants Chamber of Commerce, Che Jiu Ming was already very proud and held a small celebration banquet.
At the banquet, it can be seen that it is divided into two groups. Some people are very excited and active around Che Jiuming, while the other group is relatively quiet.
After changing glasses and having enough wine and food, Che Jiuming seemed to finally remember some of the members of the Chamber of Commerce who had been left out by him.
"Brother Mei, Brother Zhou, do you two want to transport a batch of grain to the store?"
Mei Zishan and Zhou Beicheng looked at each other and said quickly, "President, we are not in a hurry. Looking at this situation, food prices should continue to rise."
"Yes, President, you have a lot of food, so it doesn't matter if you sell some of it first, but we don't have enough food and we want to wait a little longer."
Che Jiuming nodded with satisfaction, "You are sensible."
Mei Zishan and Zhou Beicheng: Haha.
Che Jiuming looked at the other people again, "Is that what you mean?"
"Yeah yeah."
The guys who were asked by Che Jiujiang glanced at each other with subtle expressions. Isn't the other person in the same situation as him?
Che Jiuming frowned.
Mei Zishan was excited and immediately said, "President Che, if the grain store is convenient, I can transport 10,000 stones of grain there?"
He knew how many of these people belonged to him, but he couldn't let Che Jiu Ming notice it. The prerequisite for not letting him notice is not letting him think deeply.
Zhou Beicheng also followed, "President Che, otherwise I will also——"
The members who originally surrounded Che Jiuming were even more eager to try.
Seeing this, before Zhou Beicheng could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Che Jiuming, "You should wait a little longer. If the price of food rises a little more before selling, you can make more money."
Che Jiuming looked like he was thinking about Mei Zishan and others, but he felt a little worried. Just after praising the two of them for being sensible, the two of them started to be ignorant.
Mei Zishan and Zhou Beicheng looked at each other and curled their lips, "Thank you, President, for considering us."
