Chapter 126 Foreign Affairs Are Not Going Well
Zhao Yanchen didn't ask in the end. What could he do if he knew? Yang Lin's personality was naturally not suitable for life in the inner court of the imperial palace. In his current situation, he couldn't do anything.
After learning Zhao Yanchen's attitude, Weng Xiaoxiao felt relieved. He didn't want to buy a farm and create an enemy. The Zhao family's background was too complicated, and he didn't know Zhao Yanchen well. He didn't want to get too close to him, so he didn't send any signals to make further friends.
Although Zhao Yanchen was somewhat curious about Weng Xiaoxiao, that was all. He would not interfere in such farm transactions. It was not easy for the Zhao family to survive. He would not and could not show up again in his lifetime.
The two of them had basically the same thoughts, so they chatted for a while, drank a cup of tea, and then went their separate ways.
......
It doesn't completely solve the problem, but at least there won't be any future troubles.
The next day, Weng Xiaoxiao began to visit tea houses to learn about the local tea business.
Tea trees are cash crops, and if they are grown well, they are the biggest source of income for the village. Tea planting requires a lot of organic fertilizer, so a piece of land is set aside for breeding. These livelihoods can not only provide employment for dozens of people, but also increase income.
We are not short of manpower now, but we lack people with real skills. It would be best if those people in the village could be used.
After strolling for a while, the group just returned to the inn when Weng Xiaoxiao was stopped by Wu Guang.
Knowing that things had progressed, Weng Xiaoxiao asked for a private room and invited Wu Guang in to talk.
After pondering for a long time, he finally spoke with difficulty, "Master Weng, Master Sun is causing trouble again. He wants you to exchange Miss Cuihong's indenture for the farm, and he doesn't want any money."
Tapping his fingers on the table, Weng Xiaoxiao seemed to be thinking, "Who is Miss Cuihong?"
"A popular star in Jinling."
"Young Master Sun, if he goes in person with the money to redeem the person, wouldn't that be a good opportunity for him to win the favor of the beauty? What's the trick behind giving up such a good opportunity?" Weng Xiaoxiao doesn't like being kept in the dark.
Wu Guang knew that Weng Xiaoxiao was not easy to fool, so he asked about it before coming.
"Recently, Miss Cuihong's value has increased again. She can't be redeemed with just 5,000 taels. Besides, famous prostitutes like talented men of letters and don't like people like Mr. Sun. Even if Mr. Sun has money, he can't do this."
"If you have money, why don't you support him more? Why chase him away? Why are you so stubborn about redeeming him back?" This person is really weird. Isn't this just being a masochist!
Wu Guang's face didn't look very good either. What was going on?
"That place is a waste of money. A lot of money is spent, but people don't get involved. If you can't get it, you will have longings. It is said that Mr. Sun has lost his appetite at home and is almost going insane."
What a loser, the other person's cash cow is hanging on to a fool like him, Weng Xiaoxiao cursed in her heart.
If the price was raised, she wouldn't know how much money she would have to spend, and she would have to deal with those people. Weng Xiaoxiao felt a little uncomfortable and made a decision immediately.
"I like this farm, but I won't accept his unreasonable demands. If you want to sell it, then sell it. If you don't want to sell it, then forget it. Who cares about his pimping? Tell him exactly what I said. There's no need to hide anything."
She is willing to work hard as long as it is normal. It is natural and reasonable to be rewarded for her work. But she will not do anything against her will, and she does not want to embarrass herself.
Wu Guang also felt tired, but was also shocked by Weng Xiaoxiao's decisiveness. It was really worthwhile to get this deal.
"Please help me look for something else." Weng Xiaoxiao said this and left.
Chunxia glared at Wu Guang angrily, "Mr. Wu, you have money, but you still worry about not being able to buy a farm? You must be crazy to ask for such a difficult request."
"Ong..." Wu Guang was about to chase after him when Ping An and Shun Sui held his shoulders.
"Our master is a serious businessman and doesn't get involved in dirty business. Don't make the wrong calculation."
He thought he was just an ordinary guard, but he didn't expect that he almost fell to his knees with just a light tap. Waves of fear surged in his heart.
The general said that as long as it was for the sake of protecting the mistress, it didn't matter even if he killed someone. If anything serious happened, he would take responsibility.
Wu Guang waited until everyone had left before he dared to leave the inn.
Damn it, no matter how much money he can make, he won't do this business anymore, whoever wants to take it can do it. Let the Sun family drag it out, he is too lazy to respond.
Having dealt with many people, he naturally preferred to do business with straightforward people like Weng Xiaoxiao. One is one, two is two. He never cheated anyone and never owed money to others.
You should ask your friends if they have a suitable farm. You can lose a business, but you must keep good customers.
After Wu Guang figured it out, he trotted off to do his work.
......
Apart from feeling a little regretful, Weng Xiaoxiao didn't have any special feelings. If this place wasn't suitable, she could just look for another one. It would just take a few more days.
After lunch, the group headed for Yangzhou.
After arriving home, Weng Xiaoxiao asked Xiaohai to go to the farm to deliver a letter to Zhou Zheng, asking them to be patient and stay put. If Liu Yuan needed help, they could arrange for some people to go over and help.
These wounded soldiers have been away from home for many years, and they are probably unfamiliar with many farm tasks. This is a good opportunity to familiarize themselves with them. The key is that people are prone to trouble when they are idle.
The pickle workshop was doing very good business. More and more vegetables were needed, so a lot of land was purchased intermittently, and the number of tenants increased by more than a dozen.
Two more shops have been added in the city, and I haven’t had time to look through the account books yet.
There is no end to worrying about things.
After taking a shower, Weng Xiaoxiao lay in a rocking chair with her hair loose, looking up at the starry sky. It was quiet and peaceful, with a gentle breeze, and she felt extremely comfortable.
......
"Lin Wei, what kind of inn are you looking for? We have no money left?" Lin Changqing looked at the room. It had nothing he wanted and the bedding on the bed had a strange smell. He could no longer bear it and started to roar.
Lin Changqing was affiliated with the Yuheng Division of the Ministry of Industry. Their department was responsible for manufacturing, receiving and sending various official utensils, verifying military expenditures, military supplies and arms expenses in various places, and was in charge of the national measurement system, smelting and minting coins, and purchasing copper, lead, saltpeter and sulfur.
He has been away from Beijing for nearly a month, and his job is to write off the military supplies and ammunition expenses of the garrison in southern Anhui. They are currently stationed in a small town in southern Anhui, with the garrison dozens of miles away.
"Sir, this is the only inn in town. I'm sorry to bother you. We'll move to another place tomorrow."
Lin Changqing snorted coldly. He shouldn't have accepted such a tough job out of spite. At that time, he just wanted to leave Beijing for some peace and quiet, but he didn't expect to make a worse choice in his haste.
He was a lowly official, and he was really tired of doing such an offensive job. He threw the quilt aside and lay down on the bed.
The war has broken out in the northwest and the situation is unpredictable. If things go wrong, troops will have to be recruited from all over the place. The local garrisons have been comfortable for too long, it would be strange if they could have complete military supplies and munitions!
