Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

Seeing that he didn't press the matter of the peace lock, Xu Qing tidied her disheveled hair and said leisurely:

“Perfect timing. I came to the city to expand my new-style outhouse. Young Master Cui doesn’t need to make another trip.”

Cui Yifeng leaned back in his chair, looking every bit the dashing and debonair gentleman.

“I like straightforward people when I do business. Madam Xu, milk tea is very popular in the city, and 2000 servings are not enough.”

Cui said you don't want to open a shop in Fucheng, but my transportation costs will increase with each trip.

"How about you sell me the milk tea recipe, Madam Xu? I'll offer you this price; you definitely won't lose out."

Cui Yifeng held up five fingers and gestured in front of Xu Qing.

Although Xu Gong didn't know who this person was, he was somewhat displeased to hear that he wanted to buy the prescription right away and said:

"We wouldn't buy it even for 50 taels. What are we going to do if you buy the prescription?"

Xu Qing didn't speak. She knew that based on what the one-armed beggar said about the Cui family's wealth, it must be more than 50 taels.

However, this incident can be used to see what kind of person this young man from the Cui family really is.

Upon hearing that it costs 50 taels of silver, will one show mockery and disdain, or anger and resentment?

Cui Yifeng smiled, his tone as warm and friendly as if he were chatting with a friend:

"It's not 50 taels, it's 500 taels of gold. What do you say, Madam Xu? Think it over."

"What! 500 taels of gold..."

Xu Gong and Zhao Da stared wide-eyed in shock, their mouths agape enough to fit an egg.

"My goodness, I've never seen so much silver, let alone gold... Little sister, why don't we just sell it..."

Thinking of 500 taels of gold, Xu Gong felt a golden haze before his eyes and his head was spinning.

After the initial shock, Zhao Dazhi remained relatively calm. In any case, it was none of his business; he just needed to follow his boss's orders.

Cui Yifeng did not reveal any of the emotions Xu Qing had imagined, which made Xu Qing value Cui Yifeng even more.

This person is listed as an extremely dangerous individual.

Boys his age, whose families are even slightly better off, all act arrogantly and domineeringly.

This young man doesn't look very old, but he is extremely experienced in dealing with people and situations, which shows that he is a remarkable person.

Xu Qing focused all her attention on dealing with Cui Yifeng.

"This recipe is actually extremely simple, and I'd feel bad selling it to you for 500 gold. How about this: I'll provide the technique, and you provide the money."

Let's set up a workshop in the prefectural city, and split the profits fifty-fifty. However, I'll be in charge of selecting the workers in the workshop.

If the workers use their own technology, it means the key technology is still in their own hands. If this guy goes back on his word, they can leave at any time.

Without the slightest hesitation, Cui Yifeng nodded in agreement.

“The Cui family has the workshop ready-made; you can send workers to start work anytime.”

After agreeing on the milk tea deal, Cui Yifeng then discussed the use of squat toilets with Xu Qing.

Although he had never seen the renovated outhouse, he could picture it in his mind after hearing Xu Qing's description.

"Madam Xu is exceptionally intelligent, I admire her. How about we cooperate with the Cui family on this squat toilet project, following the same approach as with Milk Tea?"

Xu Qing couldn't have asked for more, as she knew that the Cui family was practically all-powerful in the prefectural city.

She wanted to do business in the prefectural city, and she was bound to run into the Cui family. It would be best if they could coexist peacefully as they were now.

Besides, with the Cui family protecting them, no one will dare to cause trouble again.

"I'll pack up all the workers and send them to you tomorrow, and we can start work the day after tomorrow."

Xu Qing hesitated for a moment, then continued:

"The matter has been settled. Young Master Cui, you don't need to go to Ferry Town anymore. Why don't you head back home now?"

"Young Master Cui, could you hand over those two people we just arrested to me?"

Cui Yifeng clapped his hands, and his men immediately dragged He Hua and the old woman up and threw them in front of Xu Qing.

He Hua and the old woman had their eyes closed, their eyes red and swollen.

Xu Qing gestured for Zhao Dazhi and Xu Gong to take the two away, but Cui Yifeng said, "Wait."

“Madam Xu, you can have these two people, but I must warn you, this old woman is very skilled with poison, so you must be careful.”

Xu Qing hesitated for a moment. She wasn't afraid of being hit, after all, she was holding an electric baton, and no matter how strong she was, she couldn't withstand high voltage.

But this involves using poison...

Her shop doesn't have any antidote pills either...

Why not just kill her? She already has someone she suspects anyway.

It is better to kill by mistake than to let go.

Xu Qing's eyes turned cold and fierce, and he planned to kick the two people who were tied up tightly into the river.

Remembering Cui Yifeng's words about how skilled this person was at using poison, Xu Qing didn't dare to kick him directly. Instead, she found a bamboo pole and used it to poke the two of them towards the riverbank like balls.

He Hua and the old woman were immobilized by Cui Er's acupoints and could not resist, so they rolled forward on the ground.

Cui Yifeng's handsome lips twitched.

I never expected that this Madam Xu would be such a ruthless person.

He reminded Madam Xu that he only wanted to scare her and get her to ask him for help, and that he could help her.

However, in exchange, she also had to tell him about the safety lock.

These two are still useful to him, so he can't get rid of them yet.

Cui Yifeng spoke up to stop her, saying, "Madam Xu, don't you want to know who hired someone to kill you?"

Xu Qing continued working without interrupting her speech: "I don't want to know. Since they want to harm me, they have to pay the price."

Anyway, it was Cui Yifeng who arrested them; I was just pushing them into the river.

Besides, these two sound like professional assassins. That's a dangerous profession, and it's normal for something to go wrong.

Seeing that He Hua and the other woman were about to roll into the river, Cui Yifeng said helplessly:

"I'll take care of them for you, so you don't have to lift a finger, Madam Xu."

I will also help you investigate who is behind this, so you will have no more worries.

We've been through thick and thin together, Madam Xu. Would you be willing to be my friend?

Xu Qing stopped what she was doing.

"puff"

He Hua and her companion stopped at the bottom of the slope and rolled down it.

Two huge splashes of water were created.

Xu Qing looked innocently at Cui Yifeng: "I didn't mean to. I stopped. They rolled down on their own. It has nothing to do with me."

Cui Er made a hand gesture, and the assassins hidden in the shadows orderly went down into the river to rescue people.

When He Hua and the other person were pulled from the water, they were trembling uncontrollably.

Xu Qing asked in confusion, "The weather isn't that cold, is it? Why are you shivering?"

Cui Er felt that this Madam Xu was cunning and vengeful. She must have done it on purpose; why would she push someone to the bottom of a slope and stop them there?

I must never offend her again...

Cui Yifeng explained, "Their eyes were in contact with lime, so water would definitely make them feel even worse."

Xu Qing's eyes widened in surprise; no wonder their eyes were so red and swollen.

However, she didn't feel guilty even after finding out; she did it on purpose.

"Then why don't they cry out in pain?"

Hearing their cries of pain would make her feel better. After all, they were the ones who schemed against her.

Cui Yifeng replied good-naturedly, "Cui Er has acupunctured their pressure points; otherwise, even if you used a bamboo pole, they would still be able to fight back."

Xu Qing nodded: "In that case, thank you very much. May I ask your name, young man?"

Cui Yifeng looked at Xu Qing speechlessly and gave his name: "Cui Yifeng".

Xu Qing: "A good name, Young Master Cui. We'll head back now, see you tomorrow."

Cui Yifeng found this person to be incredibly difficult to deal with, constantly thinking about making money but never mentioning friendship!

Forget it.

We finally got some news about my younger sister, and we can't afford to make even the slightest mistake.

take it easy.

Xu Qing and the other two boarded the passenger ship to go home.

Cui Yifeng casually gave the order:

"Take these two away and question them thoroughly. Let's see who is so blind as to dare to touch my people."

"Secretly check if Madam Xu's house has any of these safety locks, but remember to be careful not to get caught."

Cui Er accepted the order and withdrew.

As Cui Yifeng watched the ships sail away from the harbor, a confident smile crept onto his lips.
