First break up the relationship, then get rich, I can choose any handsome man in the world
Chapter 170 There is someone behind the scenes
"How many pounds do you have here?"
"So how do you plan to buy it, young Lord?"
"The fact that the imperial court can come and buy your family's grain is a blessing from your ancestors. Do you still want silver?"
"So the young marquis doesn't want to spend money to buy it?"
Just as Lu Jinghui was about to speak, Lu Liu behind him took the lead and said, "Our young marquis has always been kind and benevolent, so he naturally wouldn't take your food for free. How about one cent and a half per catty?"
"Three cents per pound. If you think it's okay, we can continue the discussion."
Lu Jinghui immediately slammed the table and said, "How dare you! The market price is only 1.8 cents per catty, and you dare to ask for 3 cents per catty. You are deceiving the emperor."
Ye Shian sneered: "You also know that the market price is 1.8 li. These are seeds, and seeds are naturally more expensive. If you think it is not suitable, you don't have to buy it."
"Ye Shian!"
"I'm here."
"Do you know who you are talking to?"
"Young Marquis Yongkang."
"Then do you know that I represent the imperial court?"
"know."
"Since you know this, you still dare to drive up the market price?"
"I definitely wouldn't dare to drive up the market price, but the grain I have is different. Not only is it high-yielding, but the flour it produces is also exceptionally white, and the food it makes is also delicious. This wheat is absolutely worth the money if used as seeds. Even if you don't buy it, I can still sell it to others at a high price."
Originally, she followed the market, but this young marquis looked too annoying, so she asked for a price higher than the market price.
He can buy it or not.
"Hehe, well, well, well, it turns out that poor mountains and bad waters give rise to unruly people."
"Lu Liu, capture him for me."
Lu Liu stared at Ye Shian hesitantly, then bent down and whispered in Lu Jinghui's ear.
"Master, Ye Shian speaks so toughly, I'm afraid there is someone backing him up. How about this, let's go back first, and it won't be too late to make plans after we find out the details."
Lu Jinghui immediately thought of Mr. Wei who lived in Wanning Prefecture.
He looked at Ye Shian, and Ye Shian also looked at him.
"Let's go."
Although Mr. Wei has retired and returned to his hometown, he is still deeply rooted in the court, and his son is the minister of six ministries, so he cannot afford to offend him.
After leaving Changning Village, Lu Jinghui immediately called Lu Liu to him and said, "Go and help me find out who this girl is friends with, and check with Old Wei as well."
"Yes!"
At night, Lu Jinghui lay on the chaise longue, surrounded by beauties. There were four people fanning him, two more people massaging his legs and shoulders, and a coolly dressed beauty dancing in front of him.
He picked up a piece of watermelon with a toothpick, took a bite and immediately frowned.
This watermelon is not only not sweet, but also a little bitter. The watermelon I had at noon was sweet and juicy...
Looking at the light pink watermelon in front of him and thinking about what he had eaten in Changning Village today, he suddenly became angry and threw the watermelon in his hand back into the plate.
The fruit fork made a crisp clinking sound when it hit the plate, and the woman who was serving beside her was so scared that she immediately fell to her knees.
Seeing that his master was angry, Lu Liu immediately rushed forward: "Master..."
His eyes turned to the watermelon, and he didn't understand why Lu Jinghui would get so angry just by eating a watermelon.
"Go ask someone to make a bowl of fruit."
Lu Liu responded and when he turned to leave, he happened to meet the county magistrate Tian Yong. Tian Yong nodded and smiled at him ingratiatingly, but Lu Liu didn't even look at him.
Tian Yong didn't care. He puffed out his round belly and walked into the room with a smile.
"Your humble servant has met the Marquis. The Marquis has asked you to investigate something. Your humble servant..."
"Okay, just tell me what you found out."
Lu Jinghui interrupted Tian Yong impatiently, and Tian Yong continued timidly: "This girl from Changning Village, Ye Shian, bought a large piece of wasteland in the village, and then she reclaimed it..."
"Speak the key."
"There are many crops planted on this land, and these crops are not available here. In short, this girl is good at farming. She rented a piece of wasteland and planted a lot of crops, many of which I have never seen before. Without exception, they all grow exceptionally well, as if the land has some magic power."
"and many more……"
Lu Jinghui suddenly grasped the key point. Tian Yong looked up at Lu Jinghui blankly, wondering what he had said wrong to cause his dissatisfaction.
"What do you think is on that piece of land?"
"Magic power... The crops grown on that piece of land are particularly good. Everyone in Changning Village knows that Ye Shian is very generous and often shares the crops from his fields with the villagers."
"You, go and get me some!"
"This... I'm afraid it won't work."
Lu Jinghui immediately glanced at him coldly, and Tian Yong quickly said, "But if the Marquis wants to have a taste, there is still a way."
"Oh?"
"There is a hot pot restaurant in Wanning Prefecture, and its business is very hot. The dishes in this restaurant are all provided by Ye Shian."
"Wanning Mansion, hot pot restaurant?"
Tian Yong nodded. He had been to this hot pot restaurant several times. The food was fresh, the dishes were rich, and the taste was impeccable.
"What else did you find out?"
"Ye Shian also opened a pig head meat shop in Wanning Prefecture. This pig head meat is very famous in Wanning Prefecture. Although there are several shops imitating their method, the taste is far different. No, it is simply not the same thing."
"Humph, a little country girl, but she has quite a few tricks."
"Have you found out whether this girl has any dealings with any important figures?"
"I found out that this girl often goes to the Shen Mansion."
"Shen Mansion, Shen Family, humph, the old lady of the Shen Family's maiden name is Wei, and Old Wei is her brother from the same clan, humph, so that's how it is."
"There is one more thing, I don't know whether I should tell you."
Lu Jinghui glanced at Tian Yong, and Tian Yong lowered his head again, but he was too fat, so fat that he had no neck, and the action of bending down and lowering his head was the same as not doing anything.
"Two days ago, Mr. Wei suddenly set off back to Anjing."
"Oh?" Lu Jinghui suddenly became alert: "Are you saying that the old man went back to Anjing?"
"Hahaha...Okay, okay!"
Lu Jinghui slapped the woman next to him hard with his big hand. The woman felt pain but did not dare to show the slightest sign. Not only that, she forced herself to laugh.
"That old thing isn't the best anymore."
Seeing him laughing, Tian Yong also laughed: "Okay, you go down first."
Lu Jinghui waved his hand and drove Tian Yong out, then he grabbed the woman next to him and held her in his arms.
The woman giggled shyly and let Lu Jinghui do whatever he wanted.
Soon Lu Liu came back with a bowl of sweet water.
"Little Marquis."
Lu Jinghui was in high spirits and picked up the woman and walked towards the bed.
Lu Liu was already used to it. He waited silently outside the door with a glass of sweet water.
After half a cup of tea, Lu Jinghui came out wearing only his inner shirt with the front open. There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and neck.
Lu Liu immediately came up to him with the improved version of the fruit scoop: "Young Marquis."
