Chapter 128 Cooking Wine
On the Qinhuai River, Xi Junyu looked around in the small painting boat, which seemed to be a little dim due to the extinguishing of some lanterns.Wu Qilong smiled and took a rice pot and put it out from the side, he also went over to fill the rice, then sat down at the table next to him, and poured a plate of vegetables into the bowl.

"It's like this after every lively event. The table is full of food, and I don't know who is really full." In the flickering lights, Wu Qilong threw a piece of green vegetables into his mouth, making a thud.

"At least not hungry." Xi Junyu replied lightly.

"I feel hungry every time... Once I was very envious of Ning Liheng. Not long ago, everyone had dinner and invited him, shopkeeper Liao, and shopkeeper Luo..." Wu Qilong thought for a while, "He has been eating stuff, he's really eating."

"Irrelevant people will naturally be full."

"Too."

After a simple conversation, the two sat there and ate their food. Although it looked like some leftovers, it was indeed carefully cooked by a famous chef. At this time, it still tasted quite good.The sound of chewing sounded in the cabin, and the water wave swayed gently. After a while, Wu Qilong put down his chopsticks and tapped his fingers on the table.

"Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the night after tomorrow, everything will come to a showdown. At this time, no news is good news, Brother Xi, there shouldn't be any changes, right?"

"No." Xi Junyu shook his head, "Chen Er confessed that the assassination was ordered by others, the crisis in front of him has been broken, and the royal merchants are no longer obstructed, everyone is very happy, although they will not be dazzled, but at least Everyone can see clearly that after winning the Imperial Merchant, everything in the big house will be solved. In the future, there is no way to retreat. Right now... they have no way out, they can only go forward with the current momentum, really It's impossible to change anything."

"This is the good news." Wu Qilong poured himself a glass of wine, smiled, and drank it, "I have already prepared it here, not to mention more, my father just asked Master Dong to arrange that night. Let’s start with the order, huh, my Wu family’s weavers have always surpassed the Su family’s, it’s enough to take advantage of preconceived ideas, and the rest will be handed over to the weaving bureau adults…”

After he said this, he smiled, and when Xi Junyu over there finished eating and put down the tableware, he shook his head: "Two days later, Su Tan'er basically has no chance of taking over the Su family. Helping the straw bag will only ruin all the family business, there is no future there, really don't come to my Wu family?"

Xi Junyu glanced at him: "You know what I'm going to do."

"You and I have known each other for many years. I invited you to my Wu family a few years ago, but you refused because of Su Tan'er. I understand. Now you are a woman who has become someone else's wife, tsk, you really do..." Wu Qilong He sighed, then looked at Xi Junyu's expression and smiled again, "Okay, I know, they haven't consummated yet. After the ownership of the royal merchants is decided, of course you can also manipulate some shopkeepers to deal with Ning Liheng, so that they will never have a consummation. The chance that Su Tan'er has put a lot of hard work in the past few years, she must also find someone to vent her anger. But in the end, this is really difficult. Get up, when the time comes, you will help behind your back, after a few years or more, she will accept your love, you may be able to be together, but it is really difficult..."

Wu Qilong paused, here, Xi Junyu said indifferently: "And when the time comes, the Wu family has become a royal merchant, the time has come, you can go to the world's first cloth shop. And the Su family, accumulated for decades Fang has such a scale, once the old lady dies and collapses, he will not be able to get up again for decades. Everyone will no longer be opponents, and I will naturally have no threat to you. "

"I never cared about such threats, it's just a pity." Wu Qilong frowned, "Jiangning is the place. I, my second brother, Xue Yan, and you are no better than Su Tan'er. When it comes to time, she won't let go of one item, and has been pushing it until this point. This is the right way for shopping malls. She is really powerful, and we are not as good as her. When it comes to shopping malls, apart from Su Tan'er, the younger generation has only Puyang Yi and Tang Tang. Family Tang Xu can make me feel inferior. But she is a woman after all, although I may not be able to do what she does when I put me in her position, but she also has limitations and many extra troubles. "

Wu Qilong took a breath: "To be honest, I have never had the idea of ​​dealing with the Su family specifically. If it weren't for this situation, I and the Xue family would have their eyes on the royal merchants. Now that Su Tan'er is ready, , then it was her who earned it, she earned it, and no one competed with her. When she wanted to make a move, everyone was watching, and she could only say that her fate was not at the right time. Since she entered the game, she was intrigued That's it. But I never thought about dealing with anyone, it's just business. My Wu family has long been the number one cloth merchant in Jiangning. Brother Xi, Jiangning is just a pond. You could go into the sea, but you really want to stay in this pond. in?"

Xi Junyu smiled: "It's nothing more than doing things, how can there be so much truth."

"That's true." Wu Qilong smiled and shook his head, "I know what you think, life is just doing something, if you want to do something, you can do it. But... you are just a woman, one day you will go higher Maybe you will find these things boring. Or you will find that this woman is ordinary in a few years, and you will no longer feel the way you did before, and you will regret it. You know? I got married and she died three years later I swore I would never touch other women again, but one day after a year, when I thought of her, I forgot what she looked like, and I married two concubines...the women are all the same."

"Everyone is like this." Wu Qilong said, "Men of my generation, if you want to do something big, women can't do anything, and they are all the same, let go of Su Tan'er, you will find that there are many more Same with her. You know, a lot of women like to scratch their heads and make poses, whether she's pretending or being real, just one time, the second time I'll never put my mind on her. It's a small thing, but I'll send you a word on these things: It's useless to think straight, and if you don't care, I'll leave!"

"A lot of nonsense today."

"Oh, I know you may not listen, but as long as it is possible, I have to say, because there are still three days before this matter will be settled, and you plan to hang around her for ten or twenty years just because she hasn't consummated the marriage. You can see the sea one step forward, just one step, and you will be completely different in the next ten or twenty years. It is good that the matter of the Su family is over this time, but even if the emperor gave it to the Su family, I never took it to heart In the end, my Wu family is still the Wu family. If you and I work together, the situation will never be just in Jiangning."

Wu Qilong smiled: "How about this matter, after all, you have to think about it yourself."

The more people who know how to do things, the more determined their will is. It's not that Xi Junyu can't think about things. It must be difficult to convince him, but he still has to speak when it is time to speak.After he said this, Xi Junyu's expression was still flat, and after a long time, he said.

"In the last two or three days, don't make extra troubles. Su Tan'er is not simple, and she may not have a future. She has withdrawn funds from various places for the New Year's cloth. She has been preparing for more than two years. At this time, it counts 10 taels of silver. It's all gone, and when the Royal Businessman reveals it, all her expectations have come to naught, and it's hard for anyone to say what she will do."

"Hehe, Brother Xi is talking about lowering the price to make the goods?" Wu Qilong laughed happily, "I wish she did this, breaking the rules, everyone came to beat her, and the Su family collapsed faster. Your old man does not Su Zhongkan and Su Yunfang will not agree to let her do this, if she does this, she will drag the entire Su family into the water and go crazy."

He shook his head, his voice raised with happiness and self-confidence: "I want to say that what I'm on guard against now, Su Tan'er and Shopkeeper Liao have done their best to bring the Su family's momentum to such a level, and Su Yu is the most powerful person. At that time, one person supported the Su family and established Jiangning's position as the top three. After that, he may be able to turn the tide, but he is old, and the Su family can't support it for long. Of course, this is something in the future, and now he has let go , the role it can play is limited, and the rest, who else? Could it be Brother Ning who was ordered in danger, attracted the attention of everyone, and turned the tide?"

Xi Junyu squinted his eyes and looked tired. To be honest, he didn't like hearing this name very much.The incompetent, but married Su Tan'er, and at this time the Su family even pushed him out to temporarily take charge.An incompetent generation took away what he could have: "Don't be arrogant, he is the number one talent in Jiangning, and his poetic talents are overflowing. You secretly do dirty things, and be careful that he will criticize you afterwards."

"Haha, it's reasonable, it's reasonable." Wu Qilong patted the table and laughed, then slightly solemn, "This person is not a fool, judging from his demeanor, he is actually much more sensible than everyone in the Su family, and he has been acting these days. Although he is clumsy, it is not very reckless. It can be seen that he still thinks and learns with heart. It is just that the Su family is in such a situation, and he is inevitably anxious. Wrong, but right now... He is a scholar in such a situation, and his opponents are not at the same level. What role can he play as a smart beginner? He is not able to participate in this matter from beginning to end. All I can say is...it's not the right time."

"After this time, he must understand a lot." Xi Junyu thought about some of Ning Yi's actions over the past few days, then shook his head lightly, then turned around and walked out, "It's fine if there is nothing else, thank you for your hospitality."

"You don't say thank you for your kindness, you should repay the spring." Wu Qilong made a joke, then waved his hand, "Think about what I said, the sea is in front of you, it's not worth it for a pond, the gate of Wu's house , open to you at any time. Oh, and that sentence... it's useless to think straight..."

"If you don't care, I'll leave." Xi Junyu, who went out, repeated it, his back disappeared in the darkness on the side of the ship, "It's best not to have such a meeting again."

"This matter has been decided, when there will be no more changes." Wu Qilong replied, and when the hazy figure followed the boat away, he sighed, pushed aside the tableware and chopsticks in front of him, and stood up. Come and turn away: "It's a pity..."

The voice murmured, in any case, Xi Junyu is the talent he has always wanted to poach, and he will have to have his own team to take charge of the Wu family in the future.It is gratifying that the Wu family has won the royal merchants now. Some plans can be advanced and the icing on the cake, but even if they can't get it, the Wu family will still be the Wu family.He is still young, and there are many opportunities to open up in the future. Only such talents can be encountered. What he really values ​​is the future, not the current interests.

However, since there are such benefits, of course, it doesn't matter if you take it easily.Standing on the side of the boat, he remembered the panic of the Su family for more than a month, the fear implicit in the radicalism, the anxious running of the old lady Su who had brought the Su family to the top of Jiangning by one person, and Xue Xue on the opposite side. With a gleeful smile on his face, he couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

It's ridiculous.

The light on the river dimmed again, and the small painting boat sailed forward amid the waves.

It's dawn, and then it's dark, it's August 24, and when it's dawn again, it's the morning of the 25th.Ning Yi slept late, so he missed the morning meeting.That night, it was the annual general meeting of the cloth industry held by the Weaving Bureau. Because autumn is the harvest season, such a general meeting will be held once a year in each industry.
