The Emperor was kissed by the Regent and cried again

"I was sick and am recuperating now. Are you really the richest man in Beijing?" Fang Xiangli crossed his legs on the main seat and looked Qian Mangui up and down.

Qian Mangui smiled and said, "That's me."

"It's fake, right? Would the richest man hang out with a weirdo?"

This is weird. He went to the brothel and bought on credit. It's really unheard of. I don't know why Liu Niang chose him instead of herself that day.

Shen Jingli looked dissatisfied and raised his voice a few notches, "Who are you calling weird?"

Fang Xiangli rolled his eyes and said sarcastically, "Of course I'm talking about you. Have you paid off the money you owed Liu Niang?"

Shen Jingli choked. She had almost forgotten that she still owed the courtesan 47 taels. Now that she had 44 taels, she could pay off the courtesan's debt first.

However, Shen Jingli was naturally unhappy about being scolded. He glared back at Fang Xiangli and said in an unhappy tone: "What does this have to do with you?"

Fang Xiangli's forehead veins popped out and he clenched his fists, "Sissy, you're right not to pay back the money?!"

Hearing the word "sissy", Shen Jingli did not get angry but laughed instead, and specifically mentioned the other party's sore spot: "Anyway, the courtesan is happy, so she will choose me instead of you..."

Fang Xiangli was so angry that his blood pressure began to soar: "You! You you you!!"

Shen Jingli continued to add insult to injury: "She would rather give me credit than choose you..."

Fang Xiangli covered his heart, his face turning from pale to blue, "Sissy, shut up!"

Shen Jingli shook his head proudly, "Even if I shut up, she won't choose you."

Fang Xiangli was furious. This sissy emphasized in every sentence that Liu Niang didn't choose him. He was really killing her! !

He glared at Shen Jingli, with little flames in his eyes about to burst out.

……

The two were on the verge of a fight, neither willing to give in, sparks flashing in their eyes, and both were trying to cut the other into pieces with their eyes.

Qian Mangui took a sip of tea and interrupted the childish argument between the two men. "Master Fang, is your father's health okay?"

Fang Xiangli turned his head and looked away, "It's nothing serious."

Qian Mangui put down his teacup, looking pleased, "That's good, that's good. I wonder who is in charge of the Character Creation Bureau now?"

"I'll be in charge for now."

After hearing this, Shen Jingli almost dropped his jaw in shock, "What!?"

What's wrong with this dynasty? The father is sick and the son is tired? It's ridiculous.

Fang Xiangli looked impatient and said, "If you have something to say, please speak quickly. I am busy."

Qian Mangui: "I wonder if the Chinese Character Bureau has a lot of work now? Mr. Shen wants to print a tabloid, just one page, and the quantity is quite large. Once the inspection office passes the review, I wonder if he can be given priority?"

Fang Xiangli knew that it was Shen Jingli who wanted to print, so he curled his lips and smiled, "Sure, as long as the money is in place."

Qian Mangui winked at Shen Jingli, and Shen Jingli asked weakly, "How much is it?"

Fang Xiangli stroked his chin and pretended to be polite, "Then thirty cents a piece will do."

"..."

Shen Jingli's mouth sank slightly, and he asked, "You can obviously go and rob, why are you still printing?"

Marketing in the form of small pieces of paper is originally about small profits but quick turnover. Who among ordinary people would spend thirty cents to buy a piece of paper?

Seeing Shen Jingli being humiliated, Fang Xiangli was in a good mood and said lazily: "Speak politely, what's the matter with grabbing or not grabbing? It was thirty cents a ticket just now, and now it's forty cents."

"you!"

Shen Jingli stood up anxiously, thought for a while, and sat down again dejectedly.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Fang Xiangli said cheerfully, "What's wrong with me?"

Shen Jingli whispered in Qian Mangui's ear: "Why is he like this? Would he be stupid not to make money if he has it?"

Qian Mangui narrowed his eyes and said, "He is a well-known local fool. He is capable of doing things that harm others and benefit himself."

Shen Jingli hung his head and said weakly, "I seriously suspect he is targeting me."

It must be because I provoked him with my words just now, and before in Ruanxianglou, Liu Huakui chose me and ignored him, so this person was dissatisfied and deliberately made trouble for me.

Qian Mangui nodded: "He is indeed targeting you."

"Is there no way to cure him?"

"Have."

"explain."

"Your man can cure him."

Shen Jingli held his forehead with his hand: "Okay, let's skip this topic for now."

Shen Jingli suddenly changed his attitude and said in a friendly manner: "Well, Mr. Fang, right? It was all a misunderstanding before. I have already paid back part of the money I owed to Miss Liu, and the subsequent payment has also been arranged."

Forget it, making money is more important, don’t offend him first.

After hearing this, Fang Xiangli became even angrier and said angrily, "Humph! You made me lose face in front of Lady Liu, and you still expect me to be nice to you? Ah? I'm already being very polite by not beating you up now."

What's more, Liu Niang looked at him differently. She didn't even want the five hundred taels I offered, but chose the sissy who only offered fifty taels!

This made him extremely angry!

This tone is not smooth...

Feng Shui turns, come to my house today.

If you want to print and publish, you have to pass my review first.

Shen Jingli smiled and said, "I was trying to save your reputation. Miss Liu was so resistant that day. If you had ignored her, wouldn't you have been labeled a bully?"

Fang Xiangli sneered, "What are you talking about? Lady Liu must be shy. My mother once told me that when a woman says no, she means she wants it."

"That depends on the situation. It can't be generalized."

Fang Xiangli snorted coldly, expressing his disbelief at Shen Jingli's words, "Stop talking nonsense, can my mother really lie to me?"

No wonder Qian Mangui said that he was a famous young man in the local area, which was a very accurate description.

"Okay, okay, right, right, then can we write off our previous grudges?"

"It's a sale. Forty cents a piece. This is the friendship price I give you."

Shen Jingli said anxiously, "Why do you have to do this? If you take my business, you will definitely win without doing anything. Don't be stingy with the money."

Fang Xiangli stood up from his chair and started to chase him away. "Humph, you're an eyesore. I don't want to have anything to do with you. If the price isn't right, get out. I'm busy."

Shen Jingli also stood up, "I want to see Lord Fang."

"Someone, get him out."

Shen Jingli wanted to communicate further, but Fang Xiangli had already left quickly. Shen Jingli lowered his head and walked out of the Character Making Bureau, looking back at the closed door.

She was filled with emotion: "Oh my god! The capital is too small. It's ok to run into acquaintances everywhere, but I also run into obstacles everywhere!"

"Brother Shen, don't get excited."

"How can I not be excited? Why is Dayuan's official position a joke? Is it appropriate for the son to take over the father's illness? Is this reasonable? I want to report it!"

Qian Mangui laughed, "Report? Hahaha, Brother Shen, you are quite humorous."

“Eh….”

Qian Mangui comforted him, "Don't sigh, that young master Fang is lying. He is not in charge of the Chinese Character Bureau now. It's just that young master Fang is hostile to you, so he deliberately blocked you."
